The U.S. FAA recommended foam paths for emergency landings beginning in 1966, but withdrew that recommendation in 1987, although it did not bar its use. In 2002, a circular recommended against using pre-foaming except in certain circumstances. In particular, the FAA was concerned that pre-foaming would deplete firefighting foam supplies in the event they were needed to respond to a fire. Also, foam on the runway may decrease the effectiveness of the landing airplane's brakes, possibly leading to it overshooting the runway.
Foam is still used in aviation firefighting, usually in conjunction with Purple-K dry chemical.

I think this is a good ad for them. Probably not their fault the landing gear failed and even though it did the pilot landed the plane safely with no injuries.

after something similar happend to a 727 recently i'd say it's better to stick to flying Airbus :winkwink:

(and yes, i know, also Airbus planes had problems or crashed in the past)
