J.O. Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Another fine piece of reporting. I wonder what the "something" was? Mav, what can you tell us? Westjet flight makes emergency landing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ACSideStick Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 According to CADORS, they hit a bird on t/o. Airport authority confirmed after runway inspection. They were overweight and flew around to lighten for landing. Real slow news day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conehead Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Wonder why the media didn't report them dumping fuel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ACSideStick Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Wonder why the media didn't report them dumping fuel? Cadors 2010p0328They didn't dump fuel, they flew around and burned it off. Probably what gave the media the time to fantasize how tragic and horrific the whole event would hopefully be so they could sell some copy.
