I don't know who the crew was of the ASA plane that blew both right mains on takeoff yesterday in ATL but I bet that there were tens of thousands of hours in that cockpit that kept it pointed straight on the runway. I hope the bean counters in SGU know what they're getting rid of when they decided this plan of action with ASA and XJT.
