Sounds like the guy hasn't done much research.
But if the intent is to execute any kind of a maneuver with even the least bit of precision, the task immediately becomes quite daunting. True, in fact they did a really ****ty job. They overspeed the planes several times and had to circle around a couple times before they could even find the very large targets. In the case of a Boeing 757 or 767, the pilot would be faced with an EFIS (Electronic Flight Instrumentation System) panel comprised of six large multi-mode LCDs interspersed with clusters of assorted "hard" struments. They probably used a very simple straight forward method to address the EFIS. They probably covered it up with duck tape. They weren't trying to execute ILS approaches to mins here, they just flew (very poorly I might add) the planes into giant targets. Some have speculated they may have had Garmin 295's on them, making navigation about as difficult as eating PopTarts. -Robert |
