Careful there slugger, I just had a look at the ECL for my C++ and um, there ain't no flight control/AFCS malfunction listed that includes ditching as part of the program. Hydraulics, ok fine, I get it.....but, and its a BIG but, the local authority saw fit to ground all their C++'s until further notice AND suddenly all these crews are supposedly getting a real quick trip to the sim??? At least that's the way I understand it.

So, no.....this one is no where near finished playing out yet. Something smells a wee bit fishy with this incident and I'm going to need an awful lot more data shoved in my face before I think otherwise.
