Sue JetBlue

[Floogeldy]

They've got a serious design flaw, unless they can prove that something unforseeable hit and damaged the gear on the runway or in the air during take off.

$100,000 for each passenger, I say!

1. how much does the pilot get for

saving everyones ass, including the execs of jet blue?

[Floogeldy]

3. A bonus

Pay the man a $100,000 bonus. For doing his job well.

}(

[obxhead]

5. come on.

passengers get the same bonus as the pilot? All they did was bend over and kiss their own rear ends.

[Floogeldy]

9. That's not their job.

[obxhead]

17. I agree and action should be taken

but that pilot. I hope he's drivin next time I fly.

[Floogeldy]

21. He's good all right.

:thumbsup:

[Initech]

27. The mechanics will definately get their fair share of the blame!

It's not necessarily the pilot's fault. I'm surprised that the mechanics didnt notice the design flaw after take off.

2. Jet Blue manufactures their own planes?

Is Jet Blue actually Airbus is disguise?

[Floogeldy]

4. They can be sued anyway.

Whether they manufacture the thing, or not.

6. JetBlue is one of the only decent airlines out there.

After 9/11, they sealed the door to the front of the plane the NEXT DAY..no excuses, no stories. All the other airlines were hemming and hawing.
I go out of my way to fly JetBlue when ever I can. I have found their service and their personnel to be exceptional.
That landing was incredible and everyone involved deserves kudos and recognition for a job well done...way above and beyond.

[Floogeldy]

8. Yeah. That's why I'm not asking $1,000,000 for each passenger.

7. Hello, my dear Floog......

I don't think that a lawsuit here is a good idea, without a whole lot more information...

If there was negligence, then yes...

But not otherwise......

Oh boy, I hate to argue with lawyers!

I'm scared.......:scared:


J/K......:loveya:

[Floogeldy]

11. Design flaw in the front landing gear.

Unless something unforseeable hit it. That's negligence, to me.

Don't make me spank you.

:spank:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. Mmmm...you are spanking me........

I think I ......LIKE it.....

:blush:

[Floogeldy]

16. Any time.

;)

10. This is probably...

The first real "accident" on an Airbus and everyone was saved today. They are the SAFESTS planes. Unlike all the fatal accidents on Boeings it shows that one can rely on good pilots and excellent planes.

[Floogeldy]

12. Yeah. They can rely on it, okay.

Except for that little LANDING GEAR problem.

}(

[Lost-in-FL]

13. Trust me... if it was a Boeing we would be looking at fatal landing...

[Floogeldy]

15. And if it had been a Butterfinger, it would have disintegrated.

I stand by my statements.

}(

[Lost-in-FL]

18. I stand by mine too...

Sue Boeing for all their fatal accidents, then you can sue Airbus for this "incident"

[Floogeldy]

19. U sue who you want to, and I'll sue who I want to.

}(

[Lost-in-FL]

24. Yeah dude... sue them...

The answer to everything, lawsuits... while you are at it... sue W also...

[Floogeldy]

28. Good idea.

25. Not the first real accident

AA 587 that crashed into Rockaway beach when the rudder flew off, was an Airbus A300. 260 killed there.

But, they are comparatively very safe, I'll give you that.

Although I suspect it is because they are much newer than the 727s, 737s and MD-80s that crash all the time.

22. They all get 3 hours worth of bonus Frequent Flyer miles

...and they will all receive their weight in off-brand honey-glazed peanuts.

The attorneys in the case will split $150 Million.

29. Wha?
