PapaHotel6,
To help him or her achieve this result, no let or hinder should be acceptable and this applies to those on the ground who prepare the data for use in flight
I fail to see how your comment .
ctually, such statements really irritate me. They reek of pompous sanctimony and imply that once in the air, a competent captain should gain some sort of overriding omnipresence that protects the flight from all outside influence
Can be reconciled with the written comment of Maurice McGreal. To my mind that statement covers the Erebus situation very well.
It's statements such as those above which give ammunition to those who would write off Chippindale as an anachronistic buffoon who didn't understand "computerised" aircraft.
How do you come to that conclusion??
