DENVER - A Delta Airlines flight landing at Denver International Airport made an emergency landing Wednesday evening.

Flight 1636 had a problem with its nose gear where it would not go down and the plane had to land with the nose gear up.

There were some sparks when the plane landed, but authorities say there were no injuries.

DIA sent buses to the tarmac to bring the passengers on board the flight to the concourse, according to DIA spokesperson Chuck Cannon.

The flight was headed to Denver from Salt Lake City.

9NEWS and 9NEWS.com will continue to update this story as more information becomes available.

At least the commuters made to work/home!

Doug Taylor · October 11th, 2006, 23:44

True. I know a lot of DEN guys too and about 99% of the -90 guys.

BTW, the next person who text messages me about "Dood! Was that you?!" is getting his butt kicked because I have an o'dark thirty van ride to the airport in the morning.

"Actually, what freaked everybody out is he (the pilot) said, 'I'll see you guys on the other side' right before it happened and he's like, 'I meant on the ground,'" said Smith's husband, Tyler.

The flight was scheduled to arrive at 6:24 p.m. and landed at around 6:40 p.m.

Passengers say many of them cheered when the plane landed and the pilot came into the cabin and talked to them once they were on the ground.

One passenger says the pilot told them he has trained for 200 different types of emergencies and that this was his first.

Haha, I guess they train for the emergency and how to survive it safely but the choice of words could have been better... "See you on the other side" sounds like someone was giving up all hope about to bail on the situation.

nose gear up! sounds like a fun ride! glad it worked out :-)

Maximillian_Jenius · October 12th, 2006, 01:34

So were back to this huh...lol! When I joined the site any Delta incident or accident that occured everyone was in a mad rush to ask "Doug man was that you...?" Even if the plane type was a 767,737 or 757 when he clearly states he flies the MD-88/90.

I think that my favorite though was after an AMR MD-80 landed gear up in DFW a few years ago. There was a post "doooode Doug was that you man?"

Classic!

Probably not, I'd guess he is looking for a definition.

Actually after a second look he is right. The correct way to have said that is:

"Doug is ubiquitous." vs. Doug's ubiquitous.

Saying "Doug's" equals ownership. Versus "Doug is" which is a statement!

Check the spelling of your definAtion vs. the correct spelling of definition.....

Doug's can be a contraction for Doug is. Doug is ubiquitous.

That's stupid. That is stupid. Same deal with "they'd".. it can mean "they had" and They're means They are. bling bling bazzing

The Chief of the grammar police has spoken.

El Presidente de la organizacion gramatica .... has spoken. fue hablado?

Well that's what I originally thought when I originally wrote out the post but guess I second guessed myself when people started to "correct & serve."

When I fly a middle-of-the-night schedule, I love waking up at 1600 and making a list of the people that tried calling me between 0800 and 1500. All of those people get multiple calls from me at 0200. When they b1tch and complain, I just ask them why it's ok for them to call me when they know I'm sleeping (I know they, because the message often begins with, "I know you're probably sleeping, but . . . ")!!!

They can't say much . . .

About the pilot me misinterpreted - my friend is a doctor, and once told a family their father was upstairs. He was referring to the sixth floor, they thought heaven.
