Postby specter177 » Wed Dec 23, 2009 12:20 am

Apparently, an American Airlines flight originating in DC had a crash landing in Kingston, Jamaica. No word on fatalities yet.

They really need to redesign those overhead bin latches.

I guess they'll be writing that airframe off. Glad everyone survived and there was no fire. Could have been a lot worse.

Bad karma for screwing over TWA employees.
