I was just sent this video. That’s a long ways down the runway.

[Combat Learjet @Combat_learjet]

It looks like they landed about 5000 feet down on a 9360 foot runway. I didn’t see the thrust reversers deploy or the speed brakes.

Happened today at Maim. Details are still limited.

@natalieknowlto @OnDisasters These “holes” you speak of are often referred to as “sucker holes” by pilots.

Great job JetBlue. Ultimately we are the ones flying near severe weather and are seeing it first hand.

[Turbine Traveller @Turbinetraveler]

Yesterday, a JetBlue Airbus A320 operating flight B61971 from Fort Lauderdale to Austin refused the heading they were given and declared an emergency.

When ATC issued a heading that appeared to take the aircraft toward a severe thunderstorm, the crew pushed back:
“So you're gonna make us go through a, uh, severe thunderstorm?”

The captain then made the call:
“So we declare an emergency, making a left turn heading 260 for severe weather avoidance.”

A good call from the cockpit crew keeping everyone on board safe.

I ran into these incredible creatures this evening.

[Combat Learjet @Combat_learjet]

I think they missed a tail strike by this much!

If you’re diving like that…you’re screwed. Try it again.

@EODHappyCaptain Sorry Brother. Dogs are so amazing and bring so much into our lives. This part is definitely hard and I despise it.

[Combat Learjet @Combat_learjet]

@Spamsammich69 I did actually. No response

[Combat Learjet @Combat_learjet]

I recently took my first Waymo trip. We pulled up next to another Waymo and it felt oddly dystopian. The ride took about 10 minutes longer than planned due to taking a weird route through a housing addition. I’m not really a fan overall.

Big computer…..reboot.

Ethiopian Airlines flt ETH575 (Boeing 787) just reported a dual autopilot failure and is currently dumping fuel over Lake Michigan and returning to Chicago ORD

Tracking via @flightradar24 and audio via @theATCapp

[Combat Learjet @Combat_learjet]

Looks like the ground refueler drove off while still connected to the jet. I’m sure that caused a huge fuel spill mess.

[Breaking Aviation News & Videos @aviationbrk]

WATCH: Fuel truck moves during refueling of an Air China Boeing 747-89L at New York's JFK Airport.

The unexpected movement of the refueling truck caused damage to the fuel port and a fuel leak.

@TrailTimeJessie Agreed 100%
