    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    Landed safely. Not even any smoke.

    Yeah, I caught it to. Cool to see, but I don't think any of us are surprised at how not-a-big-deal this actually is.

    Taxied in under its own power after only being stopped on the runway for a minute or two.

    Did anyone watch it block in at the gate? I thought the wing was going to clip that catering truck on the port side actually!
