So what is the purpose of that? Could anyone take that serious by accident?

Thats Funny!

Go Mongoose Go!

Yes, there are lots of stupid people out there. At least most people who read The Onion know to not take their articles seriously.

That guy is an actor I just can't remember from where

Yeah, doesn't that guy look exactly like Jean Claude van Damme? If it is him, he truely is the Top Gun....

I've seen that dufus's mug on some wham bam Zero to Airline in a week type program in the back of magazines.

He looked so familiar... So I dug out my Flying Mag collection... Check out January 06' page 91. (Everglades University ad) Same guy I think... :) (For those who had the hankerin' to know.)

thats funny =)

There's been good coverage of a couple good air disasters in The Onion over the years, this one's my favorite:

Like the FAA says:

"There is special providence in the fall of the sparrow," Whelan said. "If it be now, 'tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be now; if it be not now, yet it will come. The readiness is all. Since no man of aught he leaves knows, what isn't to leave betimes? Let be."

Or in other words, sh*t happens.

this one's kind of funny, too. except the photo's a -9/MD-80. amatuers.

that sounds like a green face clown I know...

Wow, another humble pilot that I can't wait to fly with. Maybe he can teach me a thing or two about the dreaded, inverted ILS with a landing to hold short.

I think it's a made up story, but I'm not sure... are you serious dude?

The Onion is my favorite source of fake news, hint, hint.
