A slight correction. It’s a Airbus 320. A 380 would have about 400 more passengers.

Thanks, Patrick. I made the correction. FG

I thought you would certainly have info on that giant NYFD boat. WOW! In some of the photos it seemed to be as long as the airplane. And they’ve nudged the aircraft over to the shore and tied it up to a bulkhead. I *know* the NTSB loves them. Great splashdown, superb rescue. Couldn’t have happened in a better place. Wonderful day!

You know, I think back to the incredible Sioux City airplane crash, and think a new generation of firefighters, some of whom weren’t even born then have just seen their first, “wow.”

Air Florida was before my time, however
