Don't worry about that, he probably was already liquored up before the flight.

I just saw that too.  Pretty great it ended as well as it did.  Here are some photos I saw on the net of it...

Thats not an American Airlines plane there. ;D

Just think if that was a Boeing, the gear probably would had collapsed. :o

But I'm wondering how the gear got turned 90deg in teh first place? Does teh A320 have nose gear that rotates before it retracts? Or was this a nose wheel steering problem?

CNN said it was nose gear problem from take off. That pilot did an outstanding job though. Awesome!
