I’m hearing on the radio that Jet Blue Flight 292 from Burbank to Newark will be making an emergency landing at LAX. Apparently, the front wheels are locked and turned sideways. It sounds like it may be a bumpy landing, but the passengers aboard should come out of it fine, according to the experts I’m hearing.
UPDATE: Saw the landing on TV. Looks like it all went smoothly.

France Promises To Install Proper Frog Legs For Airbus Landing Gear
There is always hope, when it comes to France.
David (fed249) — 9/22/2005 @ 3:04 amApparently, the passengers themselves watched a fair chunk of the ordeal on TV, before JetBlue shut down the TVs. I’m sure watching their screens go black made everyone feel a lot safer.
