I wouldn't jump on the east too much about run way line ups

Regarding SQ 006, what about Lexington and the near miss, a farce worthy of Gilbert and Sullivan, that BA recently had in St Kitts?. Both happened in good weather with Western operators with overall good records long after SQ 006 was done and supposedly "learned" by our superior CRM based training?

"Once they know the basics, then they can start to 'question'...and not before."

Sounds like good advice to me. What exactly is wrong with that?

FITW - I'd have no problems flying with SQ or with 411A. Reading what I did, yes I read the entire report, about St Kitts I was stunned at the layers of "laissez faire" attitude at BA. I wasn't just the pilots. Why are BA operating large jets out of an airport(s) with known safety issues and doing nothing about it worries me a lot more than having a make nice trainer.

Edited - changed island

411A deliberately writes to stir the pot, but I have found a lot very good advice in there. Many here seem to never read the posts and just start foaming at the keyboard when they see his tag.
