Miles O'Brien is now clearly backing off the wind shear/micro burst
theory. That's very good of him to do.

I just don't understand why he even went down that route. The
initial reports were that the plane skidded off the end of the
runway, so why speculate about wind shear/stalling/micro bursts?

Also, a press conference just wrapped up. Some numbers, but not
confirmed a

297 passengers
12 crew
14 injuries
0 fatalities

Good news considering the fire. According to passengers the fire
was small at first and in the tail of the plane and everyone got
off quickly.
