About the unscheduled plane landing...
That was some amazing aeronautical engineering that kept the plane from disintegrating, wasn't it?

8. Well, yeah
It's unnatural for man to fly, almost to the point of blasphemy. Since man is trying to act like a creature it is not by flying, only Satan could have given man the idea and knowledge.

5. I think the plan failed.
I mean, they proved that non-stop service from LaGuardia to lower Manhattan was possible, but they haven't yet demonstrated how they are going to get the plane back to LaGuardia. It will get costly if they simply abandon the plane after each flight. A plane here, a plane there, pretty soon you're going to have a real pollution issue in that river.
