Professional Press V Professional Pilots

If only the Worlds press corp, and I mean all of them, could show the professionalism in their articles, that an airline pilot shows in conducting a standard, run-of-the-mill approach to land, then some of their articles may be worth reading. I don't believe it possible for a "journalist" to even remotely understand the professionalism required to do what this crew has achieved, whatever the cause.
This may be a rumour network, I think rumours are healthy, don't get me wrong, but oh boy, are there some doozies here today, some of the weirder ones are great for feeding to the press sharks, they show them up for the idiots they are. There is some very informative debate here as well but lets remember that until the official version comes out we are only guessing.
To the crew of the triple seven, congratulations, to the hungry press, butt out.
