The funniest SNL skit ever was the one where JetBlue had this happen on a take off from Long Beach, and they landed at LAX. I think I was crying with laughter the first 5x I watched that skit.
From a real event, and it was the first time a planeload of passengers were able to watch 24/7 news coverage of the plane they were on, having trouble. That skit was so well written.
(The real plane landed with no trouble, just sparking landing gear.)
Do you remember who was on that skit? Would like to find it.
