yes, it is looking a bit strange.
the concepts I want to address, someday are:
1. properly reporting what really happened, how the crew responded, how mx is involved etc.
2. a reminder to all of us to at least know where the nearest piece of pavement is if you have to get down NOW.
3. to make sure the cockpit decision making is based on safety and not just $ or convenience.
4. a reminder that automatic stuff can be helpful, but doesn't take the place of a sharp mind who can : aviate, navigate, communicate.
do you fly into SBA? I used to fly out of there many many moon ago with Pacific Coast/Apollo. One of our planes was used in the opening scenes of "Moonraker" (james bond).
