Hero pilot safely lands passenger plane with no front

wheels as sparks fly from nose of jet

    A pilot safely landed a passenger plane without using its front wheels after they failed to deploy on arrival at the airport.

    Video footage of the emergency touchdown showed sparks flying from the nose of the aircraft as it slid along the runway in Myanmar.

    None of the 82 passengers and seven flight crew were injured during the incident at Mandalay International Airport.

    Myanmar National Airlines said in a statement that the pilot, Captain Myat Moe Aung, was alerted to the problem by the plane’s Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System (EICAS).

    He informed the control tower and tried a backup emergency procedure to pull down the wheels on the Brazilian-made Embraer 190-LR.

    The pilot then carried out two fly-bys of the runway to allow air controllers to check visually whether the landing gear had deployed.

    After dumping fuel to reduce the landing weight, he brought the aircraft in to land on its rear wheels before the nose slowly tipped down to make contact with the runway at 9.09am on Sunday.

    “The pilot did a great job,” said Win Khant, permanent secretary of transportation and telecommunication ministry. 

    A video posted online by one of the passengers showed smoke spreading through the plane before they evacuated the aircraft.

    Several of the passengers were smiling as they walked away from the plane.

    Flight operations at the airport were suspended for several hours as a result of the incident, which is now under investigation.

    “Myanmar national airlines would like to thank all passengers and our crew on board,” the company said in a statement.

    Last week a Biman Bangladesh Airlines plane skidded off the runway after landing in bad weather in Yangon. At least 15 crew and passengers were injured.

Home School Tips

 Many schools around the world closed because of the coronavirus. Parents must be a substitute teacher, and they learn with their children at home. It is not an easy task.

 Some parents expect that their children will work as hard as they do in school. However, parents need to understand that every child is different and works at different speeds. It is important to be kind and thoughtful.

    It does not have to be boring to learn. It can be fun, too. When parents teach their children math, they do not need to sit at the table and work with a book. Children can practice math during common activities such as baking or dining.

    Experts also say that it is important to communicate with the school and teachers and to stay in contact with school friends.

Flooding hits parts of Midwest, with evacuations in Michigan

    People living along two mid-Michigan lakes and parts of a river were evacuated Tuesday following several days of heavy rain that produced flooding and put pressure on dams in the area.

    Two Midland-area schools were opened for evacuees and more than 50 roads have been closed. The evacuations in Michigan followed days of heavy rains in parts of the Midwest that also brought flooding to Chicago and other parts of Illinois, as well as Ohio and other states.

“We were laying in bed when I heard sirens,” Jon St. Croix told the Midland Daily News. “A fire truck was driving around, broadcasting that (we needed) to evacuate. It’s a scary thing — you’re sleeping and awake to sirens.”

    St. Croix, 62, his wife and a next-door neighbor were among more than a dozen people sheltering in one of the schools. Their home was not flooded, but St. Croix said he had seen flooding in the area.

    Volunteers at the schools said about 120 vehicles were in the parking lots and about 30 people had been staying on cots inside, according to WNEM-TV.

In The End

Linkin Park

One thing, I don’t know why

It doesn’t even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind

I designed this rhyme

To remind myself of a time when

I tried so hard

In spite of the way you were mocking me

Acting like I was part of your property

Remembering all the times you fought with me

I’m surprised it got so

Things aren’t the way they were before

You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore

Not that you knew me back then

But it all comes back to me in the end

You kept everything inside

And even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

I tried so hard

And got so far

But in the end

It doesn’t even matter

I had to fall

To lose it all

But in the end

It doesn’t even matter

I’ve put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go

For all this

There’s only one thing you should know

I’ve put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go

For all this

There’s only one thing you should know

Beautiful Girls

Sean Kingston

Your way too beautiful girl

That’s why it’ll never work

You’ll have me suicidal, suicidal

When you say it’s over

Damn all these beautiful girls

They only wanna do your dirt

They’ll have you suicidal, suicidal

When they say it’s over

See it started at the park

Used to chill after dark

Oh when you took my heart

That’s when we fell apart

‘Cause we both thought

That love last forever (last forever)

They say we’re too young

To get ourselves sprung

Oh we didn’t care

We made it very clear

And they also said

That we couldn’t last together (last together)

See it’s very divine, girl

You’re one of a kind

But you mush up my mind

You ought to get declined

Oh Lord

My baby is driving me crazy
