I have flown the Dreamlifter there with Evergreen many times and never went to the wrong airport. If they set up the approach with the "glass" and backed it up with the ILS, I simply don't understand how this could happen.

Everyone knows that cargo pilots don't need as much sleep as the pax guys do.
