DC air traffic disrupted after American Airlines flight stalls near runway
http://www.myfoxphoenix.com/
Emergency crews at Ronald Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C. responded to a jet that has been stopped in the middle of the airport's main runway.
The jet sat on the runway for about 10 minutes before fire and rescue crews arrived, according to a video taken of the plane and posted to social media.
One witness who said he was at the airport and was delayed taking off by the plane said that the pilot of his aircraft informed passengers that the plane "had a hard landing and blew several tires."
The witness later added that they were forced to to return to the gate to get off their plane while crews tend to the aircraft on the runway.
Ronald Reagan National airport advised passengers flying "to or from" the airport to check with their airline prior to coming to the airport, saying the plane has "temporarily disrupted air traffic."
A spokesperson for American Airlines told Fox News that the plane was experiencing a mechanical issue and that nobody was injured in the incident.
"American Eagle flight 4965, operated by Republic Airways, with service from Memphis to Regan National Airport (DCA) experienced a mechanical issue upon landing at DCA. The flight landed safely and there were no reported injuries. All passengers were bussed to the terminal," the airline told Fox News in a statement Saturday. "There were 71 passengers and four crew on board."
The pilot of the aircraft told WJLA that they were forced to used the emergency brakes to bring the aircraft to a stop.
"Yes, the tires were blown on the runway," the pilot said. "We had to use emergency breaking to get the airplane to stop. We were, we were not gonna stop."
A spokesman for the airport told Fox News that "Runway 1/19 and 15/33 at DCA are temporarily closed as crews assess the current situation," adding that passengers flying to or from Reagan National Saturday afternoon should contact their airline for the latest information on their flight status.

Maybe PHP wants us to see what a happening place Phoenix is!
But yes, that is the specific link. Do you have your newspapers ironed before you read them Boac?

Don't you?
You need to understand the way the internet works. That method only works while the 'news' is on that 'main' page. A direct link is 'for ever' - unless the news organisation removes the page from the server.Moving the originally linked page down with one's finger would also have sufficed!

Re: Write your own Daily Mail aviation incident drama
Oh I know how the internet works, but given that PHP fully quoted the article, I suspect the link was there as a general indication of source and not intended as a reference in perpetuum! However it has afforded me some amusement in pulling your leg, so I am glad he was not as precise as he may have been!Boac wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 8:09 amDon't you?You need to understand the way the internet works.

On the newspapers being ironed subject, my father used to become irrationally enraged if the Sunday papers were creased and would iron them if they had been read before him! As I get older I too am starting to find things like that irritating but am diverted by posting here, so have not yet ever ironed a newspaper!
I suppose in the grand Edwardian style of things, a member of the household servants or at least, one's housekeeper would be assigned the task of ironing the newspapers! Perhaps I should suggest this role to my better half and see how well that goes down with her!

La Palma airport is closed again, thanks to that wretched multi-throated volcano. Any minute now, say the papers, the island will tip to the left and all the mountains will slip into the sea, causing a tsunami that will wash away the coast of the USA from New York to Miami...

I trust you have your surfboard polished with Mr Zog's sex wax, and the beach buggy warming up in the driveway, in order to catch the wave, as soon as it nears the Spanish coast OFSO?OFSO wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 11:06 amLa Palma is closed again, thanks to that wretched multi-throated volcano.
