I heard this morning that just prior to landing all the lights went out inside the plane. They (the passengers) all cheered when the plane touched down because they were worried. *go figure*

They are saying that the pilot was on a "red alert" NOT to land due to the rain and thunderstorm conditions....that he circled for "x" amount of time and then decided to land.

It will all come out soon enough if it was pilot error or not.

The only thing that really matters is that every single passenger made it out okay. Only 40 some people hurt which is bloody amazing when you look at the film footage.

It will be interesting to see what happens....if it wasn't pilot error then the staff should be honored for getting everyone out alive and under TWO minutes. (90 seconds if the reports are correct)
