Not if you could draw a magic cartoon tire that would come down and let the plane land safely.

“That’s nothin’. A whole wheel came of a tractor trailer right in front of me one time. :)”

LOL!

I find the MSM overreacting to all plane incidents. Geez, 43,000+ die on our highways every year, yet they make people fearful to fly.

I remember a captain, making the announcement after landing, saying, “Ladies and gentlemen, now the most dangerous part of your trip is about to take place, so please drive carefully.”

Just damn. I was on an AA flight into LAX last week.

Glad to hear that the plane landed safely. If that would have happened last week, my wife would have had a heart attack.

Reminds me of the JetBlue landing three years ago on my Birthday. Was able to get to a T.V. and watch it live.

I guess I just don’t have much of an imagination. It just seemed like an amazingly fake story to me.

“I guess I just don’t have much of an imagination. It just seemed like an amazingly fake story to me.”

That was he whole purpose of the Amazing Stories series.

It was a sci-fi/fantasy/horror series similar to the Twilight Zone.
