Time to stop flying?

No kidding. If they can screw up such basic stuff, it makes you wonder about the really technical stuff. Wonder = worry If it's not Boeing, I'm not going. |

Wonder away. At least they were honest enough to show it. Maybe they're slowly getting away from the dishonesty that compelled them to tamper with the black box at Habsheim. |

evolution to write: Wonder = worry Wrong (again). It is often a wonder why you are such a useless ****, but it doesn't cause much worry. If it's not Boeing, I'm not going. If it's any airplane that actually flies in reality, you won't be in it, numbnuts. |

Hydraulic rams, a full simulation of the flight deck and an external operator? Or do you just play games on a PC? -- William Black I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach Time for tea. |

... Mr. Travel writes: No kidding. If they can screw up such basic stuff, it makes you wonder about the really technical stuff. Wonder = worry If it's not Boeing, I'm not going. As you never ever fly anywhere, your statement is hardly worthy of consideration. I fly often, both longhaul and shothaul, and am happy to fly on Boeing and Airbus aircraft. Except that I would have serious reservations about flying on an Airbus A300 operated by American Airlines. -- JohnT |

That's a neat way of describing squeezing your joystick. stimulation would make more sense. Are those who flew moon lander simulators astronauts? It's probably closer than a computer 'simulation.' As for Flight Stim, I think it's a bit like someone learning to play the piano who has only ever played on a silent cardboard cutout of a keyboard layout. Awctually, probably worse than that... -- (*) of the royal duchy of city south and deansgate -www.davidhorne.net (email address on website) "If people think God is interesting, the onus is on them to show that there is anything there to talk about.
