If you would like to discuss similar incidents - have at it.
If you are interested into drawing this thread into one similar to one that has already been discussed - you're right.
The mods (me in this case) don't like it.

Believe it or not - not every thread needs to become a bash fest.

This is the Finnair takeoff bashing thread, I think you are looking for the Delta landing bashing thread.

The LCA/IRO had food poisoning, or some other similar ailment. They weren't on fire, didn't have a passenger near death in the back, a pregnant woman giving birth, etc.

And sometimes (as has been pointed out) those who are just plain tired/fatigued. Be careful out there....
The taxiway they took off on is also about 80 degrees off the heading of the active runway at the time.
