Default VA Emergency Landing at LAX

http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2012/...anding-at-lax/

I believe it all turned out alright. That's one packed 777 with 416 passengers on board! lol

Glad it landed safely.

Did not happen to a Qantas aircraft, so that is why iti wasn't splashed all over the media.

Have to agree with Ryan on this one. Would have been all over the media had it been a Qantas aircraft.

Sad but true,but that's the way it is
