Jet Blue Aircraft in Trouble
Just saw on the new that a Jet Blue Aircraft is circling LAX trying to make an emergency landing. The nose gear is apparently stuck and turned sideways. They have been dumping fuel over the ocean for the emergency landing.
God I hope they can land this thing safely some how. Ed

Well, I checked with my expert, the A320 CANNOT dump fuel. If you need to make a "quick return" the procedure is to throw the spoilers out, run the power up and hold until you get down to 148,000 pounds.
