It was an amazing performance by everyone - including the plane.
cliff - if you didn't hear Bloomberg today, he paid full tribute to the Jersey input. He was very good. |

Hell of a job. It's amazing to me that 30-40 years of training comes down to a few split-second CORRECT decisions that allow that plane to come down intact.
BTW, later photos show that the plane finally did sink next to the pier. |
