Surely Not

That's a damn good point.

With all the horse manure spoken about 'incidents' (I don't even think it's one of those) like this, you make a really good point.

Yes, there are 2/3 guys at the front of these aircraft. Quite often they are high time people who are intent on living to their retirement.

I want my pension fund to cry in their beer with what they've had to pay me. I (and I'm far from alone) have self-interest very high on my personal agenda.

I work on the premise that if I'm OK, so is everybody else. It's called Responsible Hedonism.

So why don't we give these guys a break and imagine (just imagine) that they were professionals, making professional judgements and getting the aircraft safely to where it needed to be.

Aircraft rarely back into the ground . . .
