It is purely through chance that this aircraft returned safely to Heathrow
How astute you are. Whatever were those two lunatics in the front doing playing with all those knobs and buttons, whilst the a/c was suffering engine fire, engine failure, hydraulic failure, gear problems, etc!
Purely by chance did that superior machine manage to ignore all input by those pesky pilots and heroically deliver itself back to terra firma!
Makes one wonder why we bother having pilots at all? I'm sure a computer, or ground based pilot would have coped MUCH better! Those faultless designers, manufacturers and managers could rig something up for the travelling public, I'm sure of it!
