There are two DC9 flights and 2 CRJ7 flights daily. I was on one of them (the ASA) yesterday...
What's your feeling on MD-88's (err DC-9-88's that is)? That's what this plane was........

Either way wasn't a big deal...reports are the plane either blew a tire or brakes burned up, not that far out of the ordinary for an airliner
