how off course are we now?

Famous Hoot Gibson maneuver...well boys the plane went through hell and they all came out alive. Good for the plane

Anyone remember the 60 minute Hoot Gibson interview? I do..he said straight to the camera..."every CFI out there thinks I did it, well I didn't...it was the rudder".

Has anyone posted the dissenting opinion of one of the NTSB members on the airbus thing?

Do consider one thing ...on the preceding page one of the posters says the FO did the correct thing on the first wake encounter...and did something different during the second...why would he?

Lots of graphs, reports and other things...but very little on the human side.

If you do something right the first time, why change? Did he panic? Did he have itchy feet?

Interviews with other pilots? Sorry, I've seen too many pilots say different things because it helps their own "six".
