Yeah that plane lacks the capabilities to dump its fuel so the best solution is to stay up in the air flying circles for 3 hours and land...ah why am I posting here? Its already solved, people are alive, the plane needs some new wheels, and CNN is acting like its the end of the world.

Though yes it is facinating to see a plane land with a 90 degree landing gear.

actually modern planes are designed so they can land safely with no landing gears, it'll just mess up the paint work
