Default FDX - MEM A300 DPs - Dec

Friends don't let friends fly DPs--just say no!

MEM A-300 Trips 25/02 Dec & 819/16 Dec

Please don't let your name show up on these, unless you have it assigned to you on Reserve.

And if it is, please file the appropriate report with feedback, after you safely complete the flight.

Obviously, avoiding DPs is NOT a priority for a few of us.

Maybe they could volunteer to fly the DP, then land at a wrong airport?

Then maybe Captjns could tell us all how he'd NEVER do that?

Then there's this from someone else in that Dreamlifter thread...

"I'm really surprised that the consensus seems to be "Could happen to anyone" attitude. I'm not sure a private pilot in his Cessna could explain landing at the wrong airport? They make comedy movies with scenes like this!

And - it might not have been in his FMS Data Base? Doesn't the "DreamLifter" fly there routinely? How could it not be in the data base?

Does that mean that all the analog airplanes we've collectively ever flow (early model 747's, 737's, 727's, DC-10's, DC-9's) couldn't land at the "right" airport.

You guys are screwing with me ... right?"
