Bumpy landing
 
Bumpy landing after pilot's artificial arm falls off - CBS News


Well, he flew better with artificial limb than some with no artificial ones.

He could have at least asked the copilot to give him a HAND. Bada-bing!

Don’t throw straight lines like that to this crowd. :D

pprune went crazy with comments about how anyone missing an arm could hold a medical. And typical British press, the headline makes it sound like his arm pulled out of his shirt sleeve. (Where is Monty Python when you need them?) The first sentence then says arm detached from the yoke. How is that falling off?

Women and children were onboard! Oh, the horor! We need to get them counselor The government needs to make planes more handi-capable!

Maybe a new checklist item is in order?

Pilot: arm
FO: secure

So he landed with the yoke disarmed?
