Hugmonster.....<<Of course safety has to come first. You mention the famous Varig flight. You don't seem clear about the details, however. Both pilots were listening to the football commentary. When the "Pull Up" command came, one said "Shut up, Gringo" and disabled it. I don't know what your definition of "impeccably" is, but I hope you were being sarcastic. "Impeccable" that is not. >>.....you plainly do not know what you are talking about. The incident I was referring too was the pilots on a 737 in Brazil listening to a football match and going in completely the wrong direction and running out of fuel and crashlanding in the jungle.

I still think we should be more professional. We are NOT a sports results service period!
