Thumbs up

I'm just very glad that flight crew do their job so much better than journalists otherwise we would all be f...ed.

Well done the crew.

Fly safe and play hard.

I LOLed at all the comments from the passengers, such as 'the plane just stalled'. Also found it great they showed a guy who sent a message to his wife during the whole thing was happening mid air. Pretty much proving to all that, yeah even one engine down lets whip out the mobile and possibly cripple the aircraft further, but that's ok

Well done to the crew for a safe ending.

The plane went like dead silent for about three minutes, and we hadn’t been told anything,
Is there an emoticon that says "please excuse the pilots from saving your lives for 3 min before they calmed your nerves with a soothing PA"?



PS Please excuse the big font its the smallest size I can make it for some reason!

“It hit the ground that hard.........."
Well if it was a B767 that'd just be a normal, SOP landing.
