The plane took off and the landing gear is stuck is a twisted position and wouldn't retract. 145 passengers en route from California to NYC. Pilot is getting ready to do a crash landing.

They're saying the pilot isn't all that worried - it's supposedly not a particularly risky maneuver (says a pilot they just interviewed). But I'll bet those passengers are pissing themselves.

I'm watching MSNBC and I'm confused because it says "Live" AND "Earlier."

A good "flare" at touch down, hold the nose off the ground as long as possible, and pray.

CNN is covering it, too. FOX has a split screen with O'Reilly and Donald Trump
