PASSENGER CHRIS NOBBE FILMED AS PEOPLE LINED UP TO DEPART THE BACK OF THE JET AFTER ENDURING A ROUGH LANDING. “I KIND OF THOUGHT THE RUNWAY WAS UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND THEY PICKED THE WRONG ONE BECAUSE IT WAS TWO REALLY REALLY HARD JOLTS RIGHT AWAY.” THOSE HARD JOLTS WERE CAUSED FROM TWO TIRES BEING BLOWN. “THE TWO FLAT TIRES ARE ON THE RIGHT.” PASSENGERS ON OTHER PLANES COULD CLEARLY SEE THERE WAS A PROBLEM. “THERE WAS ABOUT THREE FIRE TRUCKS OUT THERE, EMERGENCY CREWS, POLICE CARS.” BUT THOSE INSIDE THE AIRPORT HAD NO CLUE. “I’VE BEEN WAITING AND WAITING AND WAITING AND I JUST FOUND OUT THEY’VE BEEN HAVING MECHANICAL PROBLEMS.” NO ONE ON THE PLANE WAS HURT…JUST STARTLED. “WHEN IT LANDED IT WAS VERY NOISY, BUT PILOT WAS WONDERFUL HE HAD EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL.” “I WASN’T REALLY SCARED, I WAS ON THE GROUND HAHAHA.” THE ISSUE SHUT DOWN THE AIRPORT’S ONLY FUNCTIONING RUNWAY— KEEPING OTHER PLANES FROM TAKING OFF AND LANDING FOR A FEW HOURS.
