Navigation error!

But there was the one many years ago that became very lost going towards Washington DC, through a nav error I believe, and allegedly was hundreds of mile off track.

Kenparry,

It's a bit of a stretch to find a 40 plus year old major navigation screw-up, then compare it to current VC10 ops - but maybe that's not what you're trying to suggest....?

While everyone can make mistakes, surely it's an indication of the continued professional, safe operation of the VC10's 4-man cockpit that the only VC10 story like this is the thick end of 50 years old?
