Here are the
Top 10 Reasons why the NWA crew might have missed dozens of radios calls and
SELCAL alerts.
Number 10: They were texting
Number 9: It had something to do with sex
Number 8: Each pilot thought the airplane knew the way since Airbus aircraft are all automated anyway
Number 7: They really did just fall asleep
Number 6: They couldn’t decide who should have the Nintendo Wii next
Number 5: It had something to do with sex
or money
Number 4: It had something to do with sex
and money
Number 3: They were trying to understand NWA’s new slogan, ” We’ll get you within 150 miles of there.”
Number 2: The pilots actually have no idea why they weren’t paying attention
And the
Number 1 reason why the NWA crew missed landing at Minneapolis: They were abducted by aliens, but were returned an hour later because even the little green men couldn’t stand to listen to these two guys whine about the company any longer.
Of course, these opinions do not necessarily represent those of Northwest or Delta Airlines. Did I miss any?
