Or maybe they were hoping for a chance to see your incredibly small white penis, I don't know.

How do you know it's white? It may be off-yellow, or purple.

A few months ago at ORD, every single TSA agent I could see were african-american chicks. The only two guys (another guy and me) that got put into a little plexi rectangle for further screening were two WASPy guys that looked more like we would be the ones stopping a 9/11, not initiating it. Definit...

Don't be afraid.

We all die.

Very depressing.

Roller coasters assume a certain center of gravity and pivot point for the rider in the car, which was obviously askew here.

It looks like they may not have known what normal cruise was, for whatever reason.

Yikes.

Yup.

This all boils down to human factors and airmanship in my humble (or not) opinion. Nik and Pik in the cockpit, trying to figure out what to do to battle the airbus computers, and then, likely at a critical moment, the Captain comes in and mucks things up even more (wasting precious time coming up t...

Were any wiggers involved?

That's an interesting experiment. This all boils down to human factors and airmanship in my humble (or not) opinion.

I like the part where he compares the EADS, Air France and Air France pilots to serial killers....

I am still smarter than everyone in the forum. Except Ed. Not Ed. No.

My name is Ed, and I endorse that message (well, the part about me anyway. I have no idea about anyone else here)

Don Moore died. Flyboy didn't died.

One is a moderator here, while the other is not.

Ed: Concur (and thanks for the civil counterpoint). I will say; however, that in some stall-related crashes the experts in the final report said that the pilots incorrectly pulled up when the information was clear that they should not. Just remember that hindsight is 20-20. If they had nosed down a...

I am not sure how this applies. To Gabriel everything within a nautical mile of the word stall applies. It's his pet issue, this whole stall-and-bury-the-nose business. It's a dead horse that he not only has killed, then beat for three days, then ate, but also shit it out and ate is as his own shit...

I will confess my ignorance on this issue, so I would like some enlightenment. (please feel free to cut and past as your signature Bogs). When designing satellite control systems, they put in voting circuits to avoid ambiguous indications. The voting systems are based upon combinations of different ...

Moderators, Please merge this thread with the "Gabriel wins" one. Another accident that could have been prevented by lowering the nose. (acknowledged, flying the unreliable speed memory items for pitch and thrust would have been better as it would have prevented the stall in the first pla...

If you fly anything but Aerolineas in Argentina, it is not if you are going to crash, but when. When I flew non-A A flight in Argentina, a month after one trip the company was shut down for smuggling drugs in their 737s..the other went broke (and/or were smuggling drugs too) and left me stranded in ...

Air France Recorder Found, but Missing Its Memory EXCERPT: Martine Del Bono, a spokesman for France’s Bureau of Accident Investigations, said the memory module of the plane’s flight data recorder — which contains information on the plane’s position, speed, altitude and heading when it ran into trou...

Yes, we are part of Europe, no we are not a member of the EU. We are the smart Europeans.Per

I guess I could have done a search engine on that

However:
Google, Twitter, Facebook, iPad......kind of like a commercial for sanitary napkins laced with LSD.

I love all cultures and languages.

No.

How cruel

How big was the bill you had to pay for your celebratory meeting? The bill was inconsequential, and I don't really recall having to pay it. But if memory serves me, our bill was about $60, of which 1/3 of that was probably my beer bill (as flyboy was drinking sody-pop). Yeah Im sure FB had no troub...

Any excuse for an asado, braai, barbie, or big-honking-Texas-BBQ is OK with me.

Ed is speaking Swahili or something.

I love all cultures and languages.

Any excuse for a(...) barbie (...) is OK with me.

Oh dear....
