THIS is why commercial flights have co-pilots.
 posted by odyssey : Jun 18 (15 days, 9 hours ago.)
The over-reaction on the news networks was just unbelievable. First officers are always fully qualified to handle an aircraft in any phase of flight. There was no need to say they "managed to commandeer the aircraft and save all the passengers" (true quote I heard on CNN) like heroes or something.
 posted by Chops : Jun 18 (15 days, 9 hours ago.)
^it's CNN, they missed the Iran story so they need to juice up the ratings.

Whatever, Mythbusters proved that any idiot can land a commercial airliner these days, as long as they're getting instructions from the tower..
 posted by GiantFNRobot : Jun 19 (14 days, 9 hours ago.)
I believe that the Mythbusters episode covered this, but most modern passenger jets actually have an autolanding feature. Give the flight computer the airport details and the plane does all the work.
 posted by odyssey : Jun 20 (13 days ago.)

Blackburn is a dick. I'll probably stir up some shit here, but he shouldn't have been in the backcountry. It's unpatrolled for a reason. You want to be a daredevil, you're on your own.

a little more info here
 posted by sebastard : Jun 17 (16 days, 9 hours ago.)
^^^ This made the news quite a bit here in Vancouver and that was basically the consensus.. You don't go off-trail on a major mountain with no rescue beacon and no supplies (they had 2 granola bars and almost no water), especially when they were (apparently) experienced off-trail riders..

They totally should have known better, and while the death of his wife is tragic, it was completely avoidable.

Trying to pin this on the rescue workers is just misdirected grief, and I hope this guy realizes this before his actions cause real damage.

Overheard at Tim's this morning:

lady: Can I have a low fat Moccaccino! (very loud)
clerk: We don't have Moccaccino's but we have a Cafe Mocha.
lady: What's that?
clerk: Hot Chocolate and Coffee.
lady: I'll have a Moccaccino instead, thanks!
clerk: Sorry but we don't have that, can I get you something else?
lady: I'll have a cafe latte with skimmed milk.
clerk: I'm sorry but we don't have anything with espresso here, we only have coffee, hot chocolate and iced coffee/cappuccino.
lady: Ok, I'll have a Cafe Mocha with skimmed milk.
clerk: I'm sorry but we only 2% milk.
lady: WHAT?!?!?
lady: I want to talk to your manager.
clerk (wearing the dark uniform): I am the manager.
lady: Why don't you have skimmed milk or espresso?

At this point people in line were getting pretty loud - Jesus christ lady just order something, this isn't a Starbucks. At that comment she turned around and said I'm ordering and I'm going to get what I want. The manager then said if you need time to decide please look at the menu otherwise I'm going to take another order. She looked around at everyone then just stood there at the counter. I left at this point....

^yup... the lady seemed generally confused like she thought it was a Starbucks but she carried on arguing for a Mocca/Late/Skim beverage. The... I'm going to get what I want ...comment was just hilarious.

Aww do you blame her?? Starbucks is expensive and recession or not, people need their complicated coffee bullshit man..
