Hi folx,
Here we go again... now it's ostensibly one of "us" selling his soul to the boulevard press devil for a few greenbacks... "How Hard Is It to Fly a 757 or 767?" http://airsafe.com/journal/v1num16.htm It's an exciting reading... the guy is in "unique position to answer that question", after 100hrs in C172 and 5-6 hrs in a 757 sim... 100-hr pilots, rejoice, flying big iron has never been easier... to quote: "In short, I believe that any person who has earned a private pilot's license and who has access to the same kind of ground school and simulator training that I received could fly a 757 or 767 well enough to hit a large building." Dr.Curtiss is surely doing fine... we'll keep you posted of his progress... And, the dramatic conclusion: "Given the wide availability of this kind of training, it would appear that the kind of terrorist actions that took place in New York and Washington could easily be repeated in the future." I guess as soon Dr.Curtiss picks up his 757 at Wal-Mart... I don't know whether to laugh or cry... -Toly. |
