in before the lock...
all airlines got ridiculous mistakes/accidents on their resumes. russian airline pilots let their kids fly. nwa pilots fly drunk. colgan slows to stall speed minus 20 knots. continental takes off with zero flaps and talks about the FA's swimming suit area. southwest uses 6500 feet on a 5500 feet runway. heck, nasa takes off below the minimum temp limitation and the whole friggin plane exploded after launch. what is your point? i dont know why the colgan crew continually gets run through the mud. let the poor guy rest.
so it too me a while to type/submit this. in that time, b 200 hawk beat me to the point. he was just far more eloquent.
