redbookers...this is a holdover from the republic/northwest merger. one group was the green book and one was the redbook for seniority.
Did anyone think that whatever made the checkairman sick just might be starting to make the pilot and copilot sick, reducing their judgement.
Yes, Continental landed on a taxiway with a 757 at EWR.
I remember back in prehistoric times how easy it was sidestep...you simply tuned up the other ILS/LOC and went for it. Now, it is so hard to change things and pilots don't even write notes on their appch plates anymore. I always wrote the parallel runway ILS freq so I would have it for a sidestep.
Every airline has screwed up. Some are just much better at hiding it from the public!
Has anyone seen the United A320 that landed at DIA with a total hydraulic failure????quite recent.
