Default A GA pilot's worst nightmare?

Or, every bugsmasher pilot's secret fantasy...

I just saw this little snippet about the Continental flight whose
pilot became incapacitated. This is the first I'd read about a
passenger taking the right seat. I guess TSA/FAA's secured flight deck
rules go out the window in such a situation?

The 757's flaring height must have looked close to pattern altitude to
a 182 pilot... Do you think Stephen Brown could petition the FAA
Commish to allow him to log the time as SIC?

silly mode off

Definitely the secret fantasy category for me, but I definitely don't
want the opportunity to come at the expense of another pilot as in this
case.

Too funny. Someone said just that on the USA Today site on this same
topic... And got chewed out for it too... (some folks just have no
SOH) Anytime you can work in a reference to the movie "Airplane" it
can't be a bad thing...

"Ever see a grown man naked?"

Kingfish,

Must of had the fish.


Too funny.


I once saw a captain and an FO at Boston's Logan airport grabbing lunch
at the Legal Seafood restaurant there. I was really tempted to walk up
and say: "Don't tell me you both had the fish!"

If you like Airplane, check out "Zero Hour", the 1950s movie that
Airplane is a parody of. It's meant to be serious, but to any pilot it's
almost as funny as Airplane (it's so bad that it's good). Jay should
show it at one of his movie nights.
