That would explain a lot of things. |

Am I being "toolish" when I hear the CRJ 900 being referred to as the "nine"? I flew the Nine for ten years but I knew it as the DC-9.
Is the "academy" in Colorado or is it Embry Riddle? |

I nominate myself as TOTD for apply inform should say filling out the application half way through for Frontier Airlines. Amazingly, even after changing my mind and not submitting the application, I received an email from Republic that they have received my application :cool:

Bank at a 90 degree angle, huh? They were probably only around 70...quit exaggerating. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/06/bu...eat.html?_r=1& "We were supposed to be flying into Midway International and the pilot’s approach was long and slow. As we were coming in for the landing, not more than 1,000 feet off the ground, the pilot made a sharp turn to the right. The turn was so tight that he seemed to bank at a 90-degree angle. I had the window seat and was looking straight down at the ground. I could hear alarm bells going off in the cockpit. Just as I was convinced we were going to flip over on our back like a turtle, and any turtle can tell you that is not a good thing, the plane went into another 90-degree turn. But this time, it was to the left. I looked out the window again and I saw stars. It seemed the pilot confused Chicago O’Hare with Chicago Midway and was landing at the wrong airport. At the last minute either he or the control tower realized the problem and he tried to correct his mistake. When we finally did land at Midway, the pilot bolted off the plane. I have never seen anyone move that fast. I haven’t flown on that particular airline since." |
No doubt the pilot was completely faked out by the 55th& Cicero street light visual.... There would be an ILS to 22, but unfortunately the marker would be on top of the Sears Tower.
