The thing I regularly find amusing is how many people really do think that the plane flies differently according to the wind direction
And the oil pressure ALWAYS starts fluctuating as you leave the coast !!
Aplogies if you've read this from me elsewhere - I'll cut the preamble - my co-pilot fumbled the ( new to him ) INS leaving Singapore for Australia, and insisted that I flew a heading of 310 (M) That's what's wrong. Too much reliance on new tools without understanding the old, basic principles first.
But then Grandads are always like that - and I need a passing 5 yr. old to show me how to answer a 'text' message on the magic 'phone !
Cheers, I think we're on the same page !
