KABC Channel 7, live broadcast
Posted on 09/21/2005 4:21:43 PM PDT by kingu
A Jet Blue aircraft just did a low altitude flyby of Long Beach airport after reporting some concern with their forward gear. The television helicopter caught an image of it - the gear is turned sideways and tilted.
Aircraft is heading out towards the ocean to drop fuel, will turn around, and attempt a 'soft field' landing, keeping the nose up as long as possible.

MSNBC is saying they'll need to burn 90 mins of fuel to make a safe landing? This is going to go on for another 90 mins? How terrifying!
Continued prayers for all on board!

A millibar is a metric measure of inches of mercury. 30.00 in Hg is fair weather. Rita is something like 26.7_

They are burning the fuel off? Can't dump it?
To: meyer
If the gear is not put together correctly, it can get out of its internal alignment structure, thus this result.
Its a matter of chance how long it will go, you might get several operational cycles and the strut goes up into the clyinder like it should, then this.
