it seems you were the PIC you wrote "the situation didn’t merit deployment in the eyes of the crew" Guess you forgot to say "maybe"? But great landing skills and I hope the pilot is ok.

so more cost effective to shatter your ankle? or potentially die from 20ft? Slides do not cost that much. We have crews that inspect and repack. Did not merit deployment? You think the flight crew was thinking about saving costs when they climbed out? I cannot agree with you one bit

I am confused. Why not blow the slide? Where they stuck in the cockpit? and if no slides (and that does not make sense) why did the stairs truck pull up to the cockpit window? The pilot that tried evac via the rope and the other that climbed out of the window could have seriously been injured. As a side note, American Airlines was in the process of surplusing our 757/767 Aircraft jacks and we offered a jack to lend a hand in the removal of the aircraft

Sorry guys and gals but maybe she was just trying to get your attention. if you think blocking the middle does anything to prevent the spread you are kidding yourself. My opinion...It is all window dressing. Just wear the mask.

working for an airline and at one point, working that front line; I cannot agree more. No fly list for all airlines. Greyhound back to PHL. I never get the point of anger. I had one passenger tell me after we had to cancel ORD-MCI due to mechanical that he said we did it because of the lack of passengers on that flight. I had to tell him that there were passengers in MCI that were effected too. I closed with: If it was my choice, I would put you on a flight to MCI just to get you out of my hair
