for the airport to advise of runway condition, and they probably did. it might be a situation where they just had to get this flight down. >> again, we don't know exactly what happened here. the problem whether the problem was in the air or happened only when that flight landed. this is the best picture we've had so far. you can see the passengers evacuating this delta flight 1086, originated in atlanta, landed here in new york city just a short time ago. it's an md-80 aircraft. you can also see clearly the nose of that plane pushed up over the berm at laguardia, through the fence there. i don't know exactly where that is at laguardia. so many people here in new york fly in and out of laguardia all the time. at laguardia, the flights don't go across country. laguardia has shorter runways than other airports in the new york area, jfk and newark. as of now, no cross country
