KFI says there's a possibility of the gear snapping off and a nose landing occuring. Still dumping fuel between Catalina and the coast line.
Ugh! That water is normally full of vessels. They are dumping on top of them?
Live on Channel 8 KFMB out of San Diego.
I just changed channels and heard them say the jet had taken off from Burbank... they say they will keep following this with updates.

Sounds about right. Should make for dramatic video but everyone should be fine. As someone said, a main gear would be a far worse situation. Probably better to do a full gear up landing then that. (private pilot here)
