My dad is supposed to be flying out of Phoenix into Heathrow this afternoon. Since I'm his taxi to the airport we're all on a standby of sorts to see if 1) how long his flight is going to be delayed 2) if his flight will be arriving at all.
Thankfully no one was hurt, I heard they got everyone out quickly and that it was a short landing, put it in the grass before the runway. My dad spoke to someone at Heathrow, he said he understood that flights might be late because of a crash. She said there was no crash, it was a "landing incident". He had to tell her that having been a pilot for 30 years that any time you scrape the landing gear off the plane it's a crash. ;) Gotta love the politically correct explanations............
