I did not sense anyone justifying or defending, just advising to wait until all the facts are in...that and reacting to your propensity to turn every subject into a review of your own vast experience and sound judgement....I have been flying for over 30 years also, but I have never felt the need to mention it here, you do so every other post, and I suspect in most of your daily conversations. It seems to this casual observer that it tends to grate.... |

Pilots who overshot airport are from Pacific Northwest | Top Stories | Seattle News, Local News, Breaking News, Weather | KING5.com Its gonna be hard to put anything other than a mostly negative spin on this. I hope they can at least spin it to slightly negative. I wish them well. Up to this point I am sure they have had an outstanding honorable career. |

I'm sorry but neophyte rookies such as Tsquare, Clamp, MD92 have a hard sell in convincing me that there was no wrong committed here. OK guys, convince the public that after this episode, pilots are underpaid. Convince the public that pilots are the most disciplined human beings on the planet. Can you do this after this latest event? How can you counter the news media after all the negative publicity? Don't pull the fatigue card... cause that ain't gonna work after the crew admitted to being involved in a heated discussion. Tell you what... if the FAA, and the NTSB states the contrary, I'll buy the next round of drinks. I'm sick and tired of the cliché... "By the grace of ......" Karma.... it can happen to you". Now, can someone, someone, please explain how in the absence of radio contact for over one hour let alone flying past your top of descent point, can happen to a crew that follows proper discipline, and company SOPs? Better yet... can anyone explain why those who are discipline don't find themselves in this situation? |
