I know that as the CAA's motto but I should have guessed the FAA uses it too: the FARs are even more unreadable than anything I've seen from the UK's Civil Service. OTOH EASA could give both CAA and FAA lessons in verbosity. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org | |

Oh crap! I'll fly from Albuquerque to wherever they're grounded (at my
expense) and complete the flight. Yes, I'm rated, no I won't expect compensation. Let's just get the birds home. This reminds me of the great blizzard of '97 when a humming bird was blown from Arizona to Colorado and ended up on a window sill in Boulder. Talk about local news coverage! I recall United Airlines was asked to fly the bird back to AZ and they replied... "NO". Talk about a public relations faux pas... All the other airlines in Denver were falling over themselves to offer free transportation to the little hummer. He survived, BTW, and even got a girl friend in AZ. News coverage continued until the bird was released back into the wild with his new-found friend. I just love blind adherence to rules with no personal judgment allowed.

The story I read was that the *pilot* chose to abort the mission because he the pilot had a concern about the legality of the operation. Andy |

the FAA inspector in charge of this one should be beaten (metaphorically, of course, this is not an actual threat on a federal employee - Geez)
