This is the emergency evacuation slightly delayed by the evacuees taking photos, check out the guy at the bottom of the steps carrying a pair of BD Factions, so now you know, boots are allowed as hand luggage, its cameras that cause the problems.
edited to fix size.

jbob, Hardly an "emergency evacuation".
And couldn't you have used a photo that fits on a screen (or resized it so that it would).

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

alex_heney, a very good point, now fixed. It is an emergency evacuation even if they are not using chutes, and presumably they could well be carrying their boots if the plane was on fire, seeing this I now think boots have no place inside the cabin of a plane.
I was once evacuated from a plane whose engine was on fire using the airfield steps.

jbob, having used internal flights in the us on our last trip, I was amawzed at what constitutes "handluggage", planes are used more like buses over there and the size of the hand luggage was huge, not that much smaller than the case I used for a two-week ski-trip! Flying out of Salt Lake City, I saw many people bringing on boots as hand luggage

That's a bitch of an airfield to come into during a storm, when I went there it was horrendous one of the worst flights ever we were shaking around like rag dolls I was eyeing up who I was going to eat just in case we came down over the Tetons and were going to be stranded for months!

You'll need to Register first of course.

Gsyfreerider, I've also heard (though have no idea if it's actually true) that American are generally the last to 'wuss out' when the weather gets bad - they get most of their pilots from ex-military stock and trust them to be able to land in worse weather than most. Can't decide if that's good or bad!

ChrisWo, probably quite good if you need to land on the Hudson river!
