While thanking flight attendants, Greta decided to thank lawyers for making planes safer.

The debris starts at the seawall at the end of the runway. It appears that it came in too low and clipped the seawall.

I don’t know why, but that mushroom cloud explosion that killed a few fireman in West, Texas, largest explosion in at least 80 years, was a mere 3 minute mention 3 times on cable news, but..........you get the drift..........That National Guard General at Katrina said something about “stuck on stupid” about the President and coverage.......Well, I don’t think a mushroom cloud that blows out windows 15 or 25 miles away warrants a stupid label while 2 idiots set off pressure cookers with included beans in Boston.

I see people walking off the plane with some carrying their luggage. I wonder it they were holding up/blocking the aisles while they were getting there belongings from the overhead compartments.

From what I can tell from the photos, there are two possible causes - 1) pilot error in which the pilot lost the “feel” for his wheels or 2) altimeter error. This could still be pilot error if the pilot set the altimeter incorrectly on approach or if there was a mechanical problem with the altimeter.

It will be interesting to see the NTSA’s report when they release it months from now.

There should be cameras at each end of every runway to record every takeoff and landing.
