I thought that too!

But soon realized like USMCFLYR that the NTSB would need to be the bribed party.

 

Actually they must have got some too.

How did it taste?

 

Sorry - wrong LOB.

 

I guess they ran out of pizza, here it is.

Wow, took the airplane under 100' if I read that right.

 

Here is an accurate audio recording, which matches word for word with the transcript, and provides appropriate sound effects.

Listen to it while reading page 47.

 

I'm sure I have some annoying habits but I think this FO would drive me crazy after a couple of days.

He seems to have a nervous habit of repeating the last word the Captain says along with "yeah". It happens 11 times in a little over an hour.

Sort of reminds me of this guy:

That CA was pretty much telling the FO what to do every step of the way... and the FO was just going with it. The last flaps selection was made around 700-800 feet.

And combine that with this: The co-pilot told investigators the captain put her hand on his hand as he was controlling the throttles and reduced the power shortly before reaching the runway. Only after that did she announce that she was taking control of the landing, he told investigators.

She pulled the power to idle early while he was still flying, finally took control... and then it only took her 3 seconds to crash it. That's pretty impressive.

 

She just pulls the throttle to idle while he's flying, that's not good, lol. LGA really isn't that short of a runway and despite the silly SWA commercials, a 737 isn't really a "big one", when it comes to A/C
