Wow, Nice Job!

Polish airliner bound from New Jersey to Poland with 230 on board belly-lands at Warsaw airport. NO ONE was injured or killed!

Gotta hand it to the pilot. Nice piece if flying!

How many Polish heroes does it take to land an airplane?

Pretty darn fine job of drop kicking another stereotype.
