Incredible, to say the least. The front landing gear was turned sideways. The pilot set the rear wheels down and was hoping the front wheels would turn once they hit the tarmac. The front never turned but he made a great landing. It was shown live here.

No I haven't seen it yet. But as they say -a great landing is one you walk away from. Will have to check it out on the news machines later.

was watching it here too--great job. I'm guessing the momentary flames were from magnesium parts?

According to the article on MSN homepage, the television images seen by the public of the plane circling with the malfunctioning nose gear was likely seen by the passengers on the TV's located in the headrest of the plane. NOW THAT IS REALITY TV

Fox News [the leader] reported that the passengers were fully aware of the situation and the plans on how the landing would take place. Watched it live here,,,,,went off as the experts had said it would. Great job by the Jet Blue pilots

That was verified this morning on GMA. They did watch their own fate live!
