On Monday, April 4th, 2011 United Airlines flight 497 had to make an emergency landing at Luis Armstrong International Airport in New Orleans after a flight from San Fransisco, due to smoke in the cockpit. On landing, smoke started to fill in the cockpit, wich caused the pilots to become "blind" resaulting in the Airbus A320 operating as flight 497, to crash-land on the runway. The front anding grar slid into the ground, wich caused complications for the rear emergency exit, due to the lower-nose. Investigations are still going on for the cause of the crash.
