Recordings of radio transmissions from the Alitalia airliner that made an emergency landing at Logan International Airport Tuesday include the dramatic moment that the pilot reported a fire in one engine. They also show the pilot and controllers coolly and calmly working to get the plane safely on the ground.

Alitalia has told officials that 20 to 25 of the passengers had made it out on flights Tuesday night, others went to the Hilton hotel, and others went home.

It's nice to hear these people handling it so coldly.
