No great surprise that they've now been suspended - at least for a while.
<<<Pilots suspended after landing at wrong airport
EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — Two pilots at the controls of a Northwest Airlines flight when it landed at the wrong airport have been suspended from flying pending an investigation, an airline spokesman said Monday.
Northwest spokesman Kurt Ebenhoch said the two pilots "have been held from service" until the review is complete. No other details were released.
The flight carrying 117 passengers to Rapid City, S.D., veered off course Saturday and landed at nearby Ellsworth Air Force Base.
The plane remained on the ground for more than three hours as the pilots told Air Force security officers what went wrong, and a new crew was dispatched to continue the flight to Rapid City.
Air Force Lt. Christine Millette said the pilots reported that they were in contact with Rapid City controllers on their approach when they descended into a cloud. When the plane came out of the cloud, the first runway the pilots saw was the one at Ellsworth.
Millette said the two runways are about 7 miles apart and parallel to one another. >>>
On the back-biting subject, I did see Concorde settled to land on a disused (light coloured) runway, on a disused airfield, until the tower pointed out that the runway in use was "the dark coloured one" and "about 10 degrees right of the nose". Impressive Go-around ensued.
