Trucks and the ambulances lining the runway, it's very disconcerting for the passengers on board and yet, maybe it's a comfort check, something that they can do to help on the ground. no longer? >> i'm not sure if they do that much anymore. they will have the emergency vehicles on the runway and just like the jet blue there, it had some sparks, but didn't turn into any kind of wildfire that was out of control or anything like that. >> we're told that the f.a.a. is restricting over lambert airport. that's what you would expect, no, dj? >> absolutely, they're clearing the air space, once you dec...

That rear gear and then the pilot will lift the elevator at the back of the plane and that will keep that nose off the ground for as long as possible until the air speed bleeds away to the point where the elevators are no longer effective and then the nose of the plane will slowly lower to the ground, assuming that the nose is where the problem is. you might remember, megyn, a couple of summers go, it was a jet blue flight that had exactly this problem and it came in, maybe our immediate why desk can pull that video. it was quite spectacular. the front gear was turned side ways, turned 90 degr...

Of plane, megyn as jon pointed out. this is an lear jet. makes sense this is not the plane, that's affected. they want to give the tower a look what it's supposed to look like and retract the gear and give it one more look so if they do one more fly-by or possibly identify that this plane that's up there now burning fuel, keep in mind, depending how much fuel they have. they have time on their side and they don't want to land for a lot of fuel with the plane. and if it's heavy they might fly around for a while and consider maybe if this is the best option for airports. they've got some fuel an...
