- So it was just like an ST argument, except for instead of bringing it to another board they brought it to another state! (nm) - Stephen Oct 22, 20:35 1
  - Whatever you say. I guess this means you're not a *viking* at landing in Minneapolis. -- nm - Co-pilot Oct 22, 20:46 1
- Maybe they were thinking of cheerleader movie names -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Oct 22, 20:31
That's what they told the FAA. -- nm - Roger More Oct 22, 20:21
And if you were a pilot which would you rather admit to? -- nm - TWuG Oct 22, 20:20 4
- Sleeping. Autopilot is far safer than heated emotions. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Oct 22, 20:22 2
  - I'm guessing the rule book disagrees with you. Awake but distracted is less dangerous than asleep. - TWuG Oct 22, 20:26 1
    - I prefer my pilots awake, not distracted, but drunk as skunks. -- nm - Redmond BLT T Oct 22, 20:29
- The cockpit tapes will not lie. Either they will have talking or snoring. -- nm - Redmond BLT T Oct 22, 20:21
