Yes. There is a retired pilot on ABC saying "this is no big deal". I'm betting if you're on that plane, it seems like a pretty big deal!

It's there, but the wheels on the front gear are rotated 90 degrees from where they should be.

It probably is a big deal. They would have landed it by now. I first heard about it about one hour ago.

They just showed the nose landing gear all twisted. They already dumped fuel in the ocean
to minimize the fire.

There's also a massive Tornado right out side of Minneapolis headed toward the
city.

Man the end of the world is coming

They reported on the news that this particular Airbus can't dump fuel, so they've been circling near LAX since about 3:15 local.

It took off out of Burbank bound for New York, and immediately reported a problem. Burbank is too small to attempt an emergency landing, so they've gone to Long Beach to attempt it.
