Hi ya,
Can someone please list the occasions when passengers knew better how to deal with the problem than the crew paid to do so
yes, I can list three occasions, where the passengers (and f/a) know it better:
- Libyan Arab Airline B727 in 1973, where the occupants of the cabin know, that they was intercepted by IDF Phantoms, not by Egyptian Mig-21 (as the cockpit crew thought).
- Air Ontario F-28 was mentioned before.
- The Northwestern DC-10, which landed by mistake in Brussel and not in Frankfurt. The crew didnīt realized, that they were misguided by the ATC, but the occupants could follow the flight path on their cabin monitors.
Gross exceptions, indeed, but you never say never.....
Regards,
