I want to make it clear that I feel the same way, just like I felt when Capt. Haynes and his crew flew the DC10.
However, the initial remark by ExperimentalAB was a true eye opener to me and I wanted to see if others felt the same way.
In other words that this profession might be doomed once the likes of Haynes and Sully are gone. My contention was and still is that nothing could be further from the truth.
