What a disgrace

I believe that the program was an absolute disgrace and was shoddy as hell even by Sunday on Seven's standards (if that's possible).

The repeated reference to the Air France crash as an A330 when it was an A340 suggests either normal media inaccuracy or deliberate attempt to associate and add credence to a very poorly thought out story.

What peeves me about these programs is a total disregard of the other side of the argument.. ie How many accidents have the system prevented?
Well, we may never know, because of course, they are never documented.

As for the poor sods chucked against the ceiling, not a nice feeling, but was there ANY suggestion that there plight might have been alleviated had they have had their SEAT BELT fastened ??? No, that might have diluted the DRAMA.

The defense by FlyBoy (terrific name , by the way,NOT) aka Tim ham reeks of association with the program that I would be doing my level best to distance myself from.
