In a huge thunderstorm no less, and did such a steller job, the aircraft was flown away from the accident site back to MSY.For those who don't think an off airport landing is a viable option for an airliner; the crew of TACA flight 110 deadsticked a 737-300, engines out, on a grass levee in Louisana in May 1988, coming to a safe stop with nothing more than minor injuries.
Doesn't it alomost always to get the ball in motion? Sad, but usually true.So pretty much it will take passenger deaths to get the feds to look at lithium batteries as a real problem?
I wonder if the 80 miles less to Doha would have made a difference. If the F/O couldn't get low enough for the ILS after the 180 miles to DXB, perhaps setting up for an approach into DOH would have had similar results. Of course, we'll never know and its only speculation.
