| A visitor from United States posted Sat May 13, 2006: I work right next to LAX and watched this happen on our building's helipad. Quite a carnival-like atmosphere on the freeway next to the airport as traffic was blocked by motorists trying to get a glimpse of a crash landing that never happened.

 A visitor from Pakistan posted Tue April 11, 2006:Well done pilot/photographer for expert work | |
| A visitor from United States posted Tue April 4, 2006: Excellent Landing by this pilot, very soft, smooth and right on the centerline. Perfect example of a soft field landing for those of you in flight school. This pilot had amazing talent to bring the airplane in so softly and to keep the nosewheel up for so long. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Sun April 2, 2006: I wonder if any of the passengers were watching live coverage of their own flight using the PTV's with Direct TV in the cabin. ;-) | |

 A visitor from Russian Federation posted Fri November 25, 2005:The photogapher was in the right time and in the right place indeed. Actually I think the fire is not so critical. Try to put off the tires from the rims of your car and to brake - you'll see the similar fire. But nobody will make picture and post here :-) | |
| A visitor from - posted Wed November 23, 2005: Fantastic capture. Yes, the landing was anticlimatic, but I'd rather have it that way than the other way around. Hats off to the flight deck crew. ...and the photographer for being there. | |

| A visitor from United States posted Wed October 26, 2005: Nice Shot of a great landing. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Tue October 25, 2005: Its not the picture, its the guts to shoot such a picture and also the guts of the pilot to make such an unpredictable landing... This snap could have caught death of the people inside too. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Fri October 21, 2005: Good shot but I do not know why we are congradulating him. We should be congradulating the pilot and God. Not the person who took the picture. You all here get a thrill off of bad things. Be THANKFUL! | |
| A visitor from Denmark posted Thu October 20, 2005: This one is more tricky to put a comment on - This is a once in a lifetime shot, which primary quality is that it was taken at all! The lesson is: always bring a camera where ever you go. Better be an Elph or a tiny Sony than nothing at all! | |
 A visitor from Singapore posted Thu October 20, 2005:Aswesome landing! | |
| A visitor from United States posted Wed October 19, 2005: Clarity, you can still see the wheels cocked. The color and fire reflected in the fuselage is amazing | |

| A visitor from United States posted Thu October 13, 2005: Good timing on snap shot, great clarity. "Canyon Blue" flying great.

 A visitor from United Arab Emirates posted Tue September 27, 2005:The timing of the shot is perfect, but words are not enough to explain the pilot's and C/O performance, the question is why did this happen & what if the nose gear was only stuck on less than 90 angle, 20 degrees or 45. No dought that this is God's mercey with us. | |

| A visitor from United States posted Sat September 24, 2005: LAX Approach, we have a problem. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Sat September 24, 2005: Nice action shot, capturing the moment of truth! Yes, pilots did a great job, putting into action all the extensive training they have received. However, I would have to disagree with the passengers and others who thought this mishap could have ended in fatalities. A nose failure is not good, but it isn't reason to right away think passengers will not make it. Worse case scenario, plane lands and veers off runway, nose gear collapses, some injuries to passengers (maybe). Of course, the media got a hold of this one and ran! So people, take it easy. If I would have been on that flight, I would have been rather calm and trying to explain to passengers writing final notes to loved ones that no, you most likely have nothing to fear, just an extra rough landing. BTW, pilot here. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Sat September 24, 2005: I saw the landing live,what a pilot to land with just two wheels,excellent pilot. | |

| A visitor from Mexico posted Sat September 24, 2005: ¡great landing! i saw this landing on TV CNN. | |
| A visitor from United States posted Fri September 23, 2005: Great photo man those pilots were brave! i watched all the coreage on the news and boy was it dramatic! | |
| A visitor from Mexico posted Fri September 23, 2005: It was a terrible situation but the pilot knowd how to actue it was a great landing | |
| A visitor from Canada posted Fri September 23, 2005: My friend, you have now been promoted from captain to a general, with nerves as solid as a rock, and as for my camera man, big salute goes out to you as well, do take note on how the cocked nose gear never left the white center line picture perfect | |

 A visitor from Poland posted Fri September 23, 2005:I rated this photo to glorify pilots skills. Plane with perpendicular wheel was ride directly at line of the runway. GREAT JOB !! | |
| A visitor from Colombia posted Fri September 23, 2005: Great job! The Sunset pointing the plane's nose seems to start the fire bellow the plane. That's the way it is. Pilots should be ready "always" for this kind of emergencies. God bless the entire crew and passengers! | |

| A visitor from United States posted Fri September 23, 2005: Considering it was an Airbus A320 it never seizes to amaze me that this particular model has a flair for tv sensationalism. Of course, kudos to the pilots for doing a fantastic job. This picture is worth a thousand words. It also goes to show you cannot compromise on quality when it comes to landing gears, and neither does this photo. Good Job. | |

| A visitor from United States posted Fri September 23, 2005: First of all, Jet Blue is all I fly,though I havent been on this particular plane. I admire their success and operation, I still am always in wonder when flying, at times exceeding 600mph,7 miles above the earth,in temperatures of -20 to -60 degreesand all about are calm bored passengers.I guess most ignore the reality of the situation.However, there is the pilot, this is what he gets paid for, this picture will be on his wall,nice job.I imagine most people on the plane could sit in the pilot seat at altitude and feel like a driver,Not so hard. But here was the pilots chance to shine, and he did. In some ways I could see a little more "bling" or "pizazz" being added to takeoffs and landings,There are incredible dynamics taking place in the photo and they have been captured beautifully.Everyday static backround contrasting with controlled chaos.It's beautiful,it looks like he lands this way 2 or 3 times a week. I relate in my small way because I started auto racing this year, no experience, and first time ever on a track, I find myself caught up in the competition,nearly 130mph approaching a 90 degree turn,I wouldnt back off until those following did and then I have to make this turn, I almost put my signal on.But the appeal is functioning,focus,operating with out fear,making the commitment,So, while I bet most others on the plane are dealing with wild thoughts and fears, I bet the pilot is enjoying his confidence, and if i could enlarge the picture,I bet we'd see him smiling. | |
