In the unlikely event of an emergency place your tray tables in an upright and locked positions and turn ON your TV’s…

>For those of you who are liv­ing in a window-less bub­ble and depend on this blog for your news, yes­ter­day Jet­Blue flight 292 suf­fered a mal­func­tion with their land­ing gear and had to make an emer­gency land­ing. The plane landed safely. The inter­est­ing part of the story was the fact that Jet­Blue did NOT cen­sor the in-seat tele­vi­sions and allowed the pas­sen­gers of flight 292 as well as all other Jet­Blue flight to watch the events unfold. This opens an entirely new realm of up-to-date infor­ma­tion. If I we’re on board I would have watched it. I think that it says a lot about Jet­Blue and their con­fi­dence in their equip­ment and the skills of their pilots and ground crew. The pilots han­dled this emer­gency with the upmost professionalism.
