Someone must have already asked this but if all the air crew come down with food poisoning and I have to land the thing can I claim salvage on the aircraft, all the cargo and other passengers' duty free?
I need to know if I should keep up all this practice onf MS Flight Simulator.

Wouldn;t have thought so, but I would be expecting free F class flights for life, anyhwere in the World for not only saving a multi million pound airframe, but also heading off a multi billion pound claim from the rest of the disgruntled passengers !
I can put my PA28 down, in a grass field, how much harder can it be ????
Joking, you guys get much respect from this SLF.

Ah but if he lands the aircraft, then he CAN'T be a hijacker - that's the one thing they're not trained for.

But, but, surely at least I can have their duty free, please!
Meanwhile, I only practice landings!
Thinks: All airliners should have a prominently displayed placard on the flight deck showing how to contact the airline's insurers to negotiate a suitable settlement in times like this.

After a cloudless night in winter grass can be as hard as concrete.

Roger, better remember to always take a pen with me, it would not be a good time to try borrowing one from a CC.

Much better, in James Bond style, to adapt the seat-back IFE to take over control of the machine and land it from 57E. Actually, better get 57A so that you can take a quick look out of the window during the flare.
