Both pilots?

Presume there must still be some double-stick jobs flying in Italy? Or a not quite accurate translation? Fingers crossed they are OK.

All I can say is.. Non ho preso un indizio che quell'articolo ha detto che è tutto il in italiano.

All BabelFish has to say is "I have not taken an indication that that article has said that it is all in Italian"

I find freetranslation.com better than babelfish but still not quite right (even discounting the technical stuff)
