The point is can you land at some distant airport and not navigate
to
it. Why even put that stupid statement in there?


Maybe to get their revenge on "Wrong Way" Corrigan?


But he used dead-reckoning. He was really wrong, but it doesn't say
anything about how accurate your navigation has to be.

If you believe Corrigan was actually lost, I have some nice sunny desert
resort property on the Olympic Peninsula to sell you.

Is that anywhere near a nice beach?

Damn, forgot the :-) again. Amazing what a lack of inflection can do to a
sentence.

BTW- I realize he wasn't really lost, but was denied permission to attempt
the flight and used that as his official excuse.
