Yes it can happen, and it does happen. But why does it happen when there are two fully qualfied airmen, and sometimes three or four in the cockpit or a modern day jet with convential avionics to back up the automation?

Plus one. I agree with all of JNS's suggestions. I realize how easy it would be to do, and work darn hard to not do it. As DC8 correctly pointed out, we know what went wrong - the question is WHY did it go wrong.

jns has great pointers on threat/error management, though his presentation (as usual) is not exactly the best... hence the long running congac and bread sticks joke at his expense.

Hey moderators:
Ummm...could I get the coordinates for the thread with the fat jokes? I mistakingly landed here. It looked like the right thread. The font and color is the same. The proportions of pompous posters is similar. It is night. I'm a fatigued cargo guy. I was hoping to unload a post here to lighten my load and get over to the other one. If I do it quickly, maybe no one will notice. Never mind, someone read it. Should I do the ASAP here or in the other thread?
