Jet Blue Deploys Emergency Chutes at KSMF
SACRAMENTO, CA -- Sacramento airport officials say a JetBlue airplane blew its tires on landing, causing minor injuries to 15 passengers. The Airbus A320 landed just before 1 p.m. from Long Beach. JetBlue says it appears the plane experienced trouble with its brakes. Airport spokeswoman Gina Swankie says the 86 passengers were removed from the plane by inflatable slides and then taken to the terminal by buses. (abclocal.go.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Maybe next time they can save on the buses and deploy the chutes ... directly into the terminal door way .. !! .. Seems as though everyone wants to deplane JetBlue on the tarmac
Did anyone take a beer with them?
I love how the passenger "knew" something was wrong because it felt like they took off with a flat tire. Because I'm sure he's done that before.
They should seriously name one of their planes, "Blue all of our tires." Remember, also, the emerging landing at LAX?
