NEW YORK (AP) — LaGuardia Airport has both its runways open now that a Delta jetliner that skidded and smashed through a fence has been removed.
Port Authority spokesman Joe Pentangelo (pehn-TAN'-jeh-loh) says the second runway was reopened around 10:30 a.m. Friday. The airport's other runway was reopened about three hours after Thursday's accident.
Cranes were used overnight to remove plane.
Six people were hurt in the incident Thursday. The nose of the plane came to rest just feet from icy Flushing Bay.
The plane has been taken to a hangar.
The National Transportation Safety Board plans to retrieve the flight data and cockpit voice recorders and to document damage to the aircraft.
