Super hero pilot. great that all folks out. Question in my mind is the dogs that may have been in luggage area.

Anyone know?

I think it was a commuter flight so perhaps there weren't any animals on board - here's hoping!

We would have been going nuts if this had happened a few weeks from now when dogs coming back from Westminster--

No reports on the news about the cargo area, yet

US Air doesn't accept animals as cargo.

they would not be flying animals in these temperatures.

My husband was one of the rescuers. No animals on this flight.

as a retired finnair stewardess who flew as purser, later as assistant purser, to have more family time,for 34 years...this was a fantastic landing and i have huge respect for the pilot´s skills and calm, (i trusted ours 101% always) but as a labrador person, also often flying with my puppies, and on finnair in the cabin, i also thought if animals in hold?
i congratulated the company a moment ago and asked the same question.
it was a miracle for all on board.
