Dumb things the news said today...
1. Probably a micro burst.
2. Probably because the winds were from the west and they were taking off of runway 28.
3. Probably because the Captain was Allowing the F/O to fly so that he could build "Pilot in Charge" time.
4. Do you think it was because of Pilot Error.....
What do you have?

>They approached from the southwest due to possible "wind shears"
>7 knots of wind is enough to cause the nose to rise on landing
>The airplane was descending at a 45* angle
>A heavy aircraft is anything bigger than a 757. But a 767 is not a heavy aircraft.
>"Is it too early to believe this was pilot error?" (Asking former NTSB investigator)
I had to shut the TV off.

> Tail fell off on approach
> Aircraft rolled upside down
> That must be why we see damage on the roof
Turned off TV....
Finally, Fox New's "transcript" of the ATC recording will make you cry. Watch this at your own risk and don't take it out on your computer.

I just heard Mary Schiavo former DOT sec general. OMG she is far too stupid to have had any credibility as a spokesman for the airline industry. On the other hand, John Nance, former Alaska pilot didn't embarrass himself or us.
