I just wanted to tell you...Good luck, we're all counting on you.

I knew this was a bad week to stop sniffing glue...

WTFDYW: That's some mighty fine pilotin there.

That's what I was thinking.

Impressive landing, all things considered.

Too bad they didn't have a Nissan handy. (new window)

It's an entirely different kind of flying altogether

I've got to wonder if there was a moron somewhere stupid enough to actually try that.

Flying a plane is just like riding a bicycle. It's just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.

What an asshole
 
2011-10-27 01:12:56 PM
YAY!! airplane thread!!

They bought their tickets. They knew what they were getting into. I say, let 'em crash.

How 'bout some more coffee?

It's a damn good thing you guys don't know how much I hate your guts.

Idlewild finally came in?

How do any of you know if it's an impressive landing or not? Unless you've actually piloted a passenger jet, you have no farking idea if that takes any skill or not. Oh wait, farkers are experts on everything.

Cheesus: How 'bout some more coffee?

No thanks!

That's what immediately jumped to me mind. Effective advertising

One nice landing, and smoother than a lot of landings of planes that have all their wheels functional.
 
2011-10-27 01:18:03 PM
They landed that huge crippled jet gentler than a usual landing with all the wheels.

Pilot does a great job of keeping the nose up and killing as much speed as possible before finally letting the nose hit the tarmac. Glad everyone is okay.
 
2011-10-27 01:20:33 PM
surely your not serious
 
2011-10-27 01:21:05 PM
I thought the headline was about connecting flights at O'Hare.
 
2011-10-27 01:21:14 PM
Couldn't find any tall buildings to fly into?

So going to catch hell for that.
 
2011-10-27 01:22:04 PM
If there's a better laxative than a scary landing, I haven't found it.
 
2011-10-27 01:22:20 PM
I know but this guy has no flying experience at all. He's a menace to himself and everything else in the air... yes, birds too.

haywatchthis: surely your not serious

I am serious, and don't call me Shirley

Keep him at 26,000.


No...feet.

I thought they retired all the 727 pigs from passenger service. Also, I'm going to assume most of those 189 crew members were just deadheading. Either that or Iran Air has to have the best customer service.

"Say, could 15 of you guys go stand in the aft stairwell? That would be great thank you."
 
2011-10-27 01:25:06 PM
19 crew members. Not 189. Sorry

In North America and Europe, sure.

Bad news. The fog's getting thicker.

Air Israel, please clear the runway!

How about this leaflet, "Famous Jewish Sports Legends."

Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.
 
2011-10-27 01:35:55 PM
These always seem to appear right as I'm about to fly somewhere.

It's Iran. They fly what they have. They still fly Phantoms and Tomcats. They're like the Cuba of aircraft.

There's a sale at Penney's!
