Kennedy International Airport|New York JFK Airport]] performed an emergency landing at [[Los Angeles International Airport]] (pictured) following a failure of the nose landing gear during retraction when it turned 90 degrees. The plane landed after flying in a holding pattern in air for about three hours to burn fuel and therefore lighten the aircraft. The aircraft came to a stop without incident on runway 25L, the second-longest runway at LAX. The only apparent damage to the plane upon landing was the destruction of the front wheels, which were ground down to almost semicircles, and the tires; the front landing strut held. No one sustained injuries.

He then stole and guzzleddrank two beers before deploying the [[Evacuation slide|emergency evacuation slide]] and sliding down. The same flight attendant then claimed to be injured by the woman as he was instructing her to sit down. StevenSlater later attempted to reapply for his job but failed.
