Ahh jetblue... Its great that everyone got out ok...

But this is just another case of the press drooling over the chance to catch a crash on air LIVE on prime time. Excessive Media Coverage to the Max.

Also this has been known to happen sometimes, even on much larger aircraft, and the plane lands without incident. Great entertainment though. I'm sure everyone inside needed a pair of depends after that.

I think the Drawing and Freedom Centers at the WTC site will eventually be rightfully scrubbed. They would either end up as some cloyingly patriotic monstrosity or some monstrosity of political correctness. The site will already be a magnet for political exhibitionists without encouraging them.
