Nobody? news comment poetry. Now I got the Life of Brian whistling song stuck in my head.
Always look on the bright side of life…. doot da doot da doot da doot da doot.

Hey, they did land on the proper runway, didn’t they. Seems to me earlier in the week some flight landed on a taxiway.

Look on the Bright Side of Life
What can you do when you see
The demon throwing metal into the engine
Outside your window?

Nobody was faster

“I would even specultate this has something to do with a passion between the two–perhaps they shared a moment (or hour) of “activity”–the ultimate “mile high club.” –Matt

Yep. After those two pilots found naked in the cockpit a few years ago, first thing that crossed my mind. At least those pilots had an immediate excuse–they both spilled coffee on themselves and took off ALL of their clothing to hang up and dry!

And so much for the “tapes” from the voice cockpit recorder. This ancient Airbus technology only held the last 30 minutes of pilot banter, unlike the high tech planes which hold the last two hours on American equipment. Why doesn’t the alphabet soup of government agencies like NTSB, FAA, FBI, NSO, TSA require equipment like the British who record the entire flight? That data and voice recording could provide evidence that something or someone screwed up right at the beginning.
Why don’t we have that simple technology in force? After all, this is the Double-Naughts!

Before you is the crash site
of the strange hijacked NWA flight
Shot down by F-16s
To save Minnineapolis
RIP
Nobody was faster

Janice,

You know men will NEVER ask for directions:

“I know that airport is around here some where…”

FAA s solution – Pilots shall all wear a shock collar activated by a door switch on the lavatory in coach class. Deltas CEO – another bonus for cost savings and another fee to us to cover the retrofit. God I love flying!!

we had the same situation here on the big island a couple years ago where a couple of (former!) go! pilots overshop the hilo airport and were out of contact for about 20 minutes. it turns out they WERE asleep! what i found amazing is that the honolulu to hilo flight is only about 30-40 minutes depending upon the winds in the channel…those pilots practically had “off” buttons to be able to fall asleep that fast.

Heated conversation–I’ll bet a dime they were invovled in much more than that. I would even specultate this has something to do with a passion between the two–perhaps they shared a moment (or hour) of “activity”–the ultimate “mile high club.” I’d hate to fly Northwest with this reputation.
