fairness aquad?

fine:

is it fair to say that it took way too long to clear the runway.

that other airlines offered to help, but because of jetblue's way of doing business they didn't have the needed items to expedite the process.

is it fair to say, that IF the pilots made a mistake, deliberate or otherwise, that their judgement on all aspects of the flight comes into question...including the evacuation?

fairness indeed. and my airbus pal indicated to me that doing anything ''not in the manual'' is just asking for trouble.

we shall see.

wonder if these two guys will have their contract renewed? jet blue has different sort of contract system...nothing like a regular union carrier.
