It's on most major news channels where I am, a brand new private Nike jet carrying 4 company executives and 3 crew members has a stuck right landing gear and will have to perform an emergency landing. For some reason the right landing gear is stuck halfway and won't come out fully. They've performed at least 2 "touch-and-go's" where they've landed quickly and have come back up to see if they can jar the wheel loose, but it hasn't worked. They're now burning fuel and it could take up to 2 hours till they burn all the excess fuel and try to land. Experts are saying it shouldn't cause harm to the people on board, which is good.

There's a much better description. All in all, it wasn't as dramatic as people thought it would be, everything worked and it landed safely.
