From WSAV3 News centre:
"A Delta Connection Flight operated by ASA rolled off the runway after landing at the Savannah International Airport late Saturday afternoon, according to a spokesperson from ASA. Kate Modolo says the plane did not overshoot the runway as some witnesses had reported. “It’s important to make clear the plane landed on the runway and was in the process of de-accelerating,“ she tells me. “However, there was still enough speed that it kept going and rolled off the runway.“

I think Kate needs to form a study group with former President Clinton. They both need to figure out what the definition of "IS" is.

Well, the de-accelerating phase is a much safer time than when you're simply decelerating. Biz-com majors FTW![

Friend of mine was there and saw it happen.
