The plane was at something like 1800 ft min descent when it hit the runway. Hospitals there were on shift change so well staffed and had practiced an airline crash like 2 weeks before. Amazing anyone survived.

Al Haynes was the name of the pilot. He, the co-pilot and and instructor who was deadheading on the flight saved a lot of lives that day. Crazy story...
yep, the deadheading instructor really saved the day, I've talked with Haynes a few times, an awesome gentleman, if you listen on the tape, shortly before impact, the controller tells them they are cleared to land any runway, Haynes laughs and reples, "Oh, you want to get picky and make it a runway, huh?" there's your Ice Man
