Quoted from the Discovery channel schedule:http://dsc.discovery.com/tv-schedule...=1.13056.24704....
(My local paper's weekly TV schedule has just the brief summary "Landing a
747" so I presume the plane they attempt to land without training is a 747.
Will be interesting to see if they try the real thing and are not limited
to a simulator.)
I'm really anxious to see this episode, because apparently they filmed
the treadmill myth at my home airport.
That one wasn't even mentioned.
