I'm sure the assessment guys from AOG were on the next thing headed that direction and the structures guys will be headed out inside of a day.
Those guys did a wonderful job in that landing! Damages should be minimal and I'll bet it's back flying inside 40 days.
Since we all vote by mail in Washington, I want COMCAST to put an extra button on my remote that I can push to eliminate all the ads for/against stuff I've already voted on and I'm REALLY tired of the I-1183 ones!!!!

Awsome performance by the pilots!
In some reports, the aircraft stayed over the airport for a good hour before attempting the Em-landing.
It was probably on minimum fuel upon landing..
Now, did the airliner dump some fuel, or did it just burn it out in that extra hour or so?
