Post by: eye30 on September 28, 2010, 18:09:44

Sixty grateful passengers say a pilot saved their lives by managing to land with only ONE set of rear wheels.

The unnamed hero brought the plane down safely on a runway at New York's JFK airport after the landing gear under the right wing failed to deploy.
