U.S. Airways plane is on fire at Miami Int'l Aiport. The emergency shuttes were deployed, but the fate of the passengers still is not known yet to media. On CNN.

94 people on board, white foam extinguished the fire on the runway.

Looks like everyone was evacuated with no injuries.

looks like a possible gear fire...

Oh yeah, I completely agree. I think a lot of the incidents have been overblown too.

Another plane lost steering power or braking power and ended up running off a taxiway here in Pittsburgh. It was a commuter jet. I believe it was a Saab 340.

You'll notice the media picks up on a big story and then the following days the media will pick up on any story similar to the big story.
