I was wondering when JetBlue's fault free record was going to end. My uncle is a pilot for Iberia Airlines (in Spain) and he told me the way he drifted for such a long distance on his rear wheels before finally letting the nose wheels touch the ground was a thing of beauty. He told me this is no easy task and that many pilots right now are in awe of what he accomplished. Had he not "wheselied" so long, the significantly higher speed would've had a much greater chance of cracking the front suspension arm.
He also mentioned that emptying the fuel tank by flying around certainly helped in that tecnique.
I wonder how the market will react to this when the bell rings at W. Street.
