As sporty as KSAN is, try the procedure to 27, circle to land on 18 at NAS North Island at mins in a heavy C-5! In the turn, I could only wonder what it sounded like in terminal building.

If you think this on a "corporate" level, try working with them at the FSDO. 6-8 months for a LOA anyone. If it isn't an airline issue, it doesn't exist.

While I completely agree on the technicals of DNE/DME, it's a visual approach and the FMS procedure is there, as I understand, to create a more accurate path for visual pick up of the...

Not having GPS equipment is probably the least important factor in this incident. Plenty of planes fly safely w/o GPS.

No, but the point is the pilots don't go to work planning on dying. I was in military crash that killed to other pilot, neither went to work planning on a mid-air. The AC didn't either and proving...

SLUstu,

Except, in your industry, if you stuff it up, do you die along with the others?

My guess, the various clues all came in focus for the crew and they decided to go--the radio comment by UA, the tower saying the runway was clear when they thought it was not and PAL flashing his...

In this case, why didn't the captain act to prevent the CVR from being overwritten? If he called the tower, in request or own volition, clearly it was a significant incident. Earlier, it was stated...

I find it hard to believe either the FAA or AC hindered the investigation at the outset. It was in middle of the night, if the crew didn't report it and the lone ATCO, busy with duties, didn't...

There's just something wrong about "coupled approach" and "visual". Do we know when the crew disconnected the autopilot, or more accurately, are we sure it was hand flown from earlier in the...

Tubby,

I've read of that BA incident, he should never have been tried. Would you agree?
