You could be right Dora-9, but for some reason I thought it was heavy rain. I remember being with PK on the way to VLI and we lost the Omega. I was swearing like a trooper trying to get the bloody things to work again, being in the middle of nowhere. It was not until weeks later I learnt PK was very religious. I felt very bad about that, but to his credit he didn't hold it against me.
At the time the local aviation press hailed the 737-200AV as 'the first computerised aircraft in Australia'. Laughable now when you think of that mickey mouse PDCS and the limitations of the Omega.
