Was weather a factor?

Nah, probably just showing off.

La Guardia is notorious for their short runways surrounded by water. Always scary landing there.

Probably one of those foreign pilots.

They usually land HARD.

At her campaign headquarters, Secretary Clinton received the news of Governor Pence's accident...

Lord help us. The only thing missing in that pic is her horns. She truly is evil.

Everyone is well, not sure what exactly the cause was....Pence interviewed said he “may” have seen that some of the tarmac was torn up, he wasn’t sure if their plane had done that or if it was that way already.

Thanks be to God that they are safe.

Moderate to heavy rain during landing - anti skid failure or pilot touched down fast and long

Weather in NYC area is very bad right now. Not optimal flying weather I’m sure. Very heavy, cold rain right about now, and it’s been raining steady for the last several hours.

It’s snowing in New York. The union maintenance staff spread used motor oil instead of de-Iceing salt -common mistake! /sarc

Yes, I’m afraid this happens at LaGuardia frequently. I always avoided that airport if possible, even though it was more convenient to the city.

Fortunately, It’s usually just a skid, and a few hours delay while they figure out what story to come up with.
