It's probably not just a problem in aviation. There are things that
seem so blindingly obvious to engineers that it's difficult for them
to conceive the notion that a non-engineer might not recognise the
truth.

Alaska Airlines Flight 261 might be an example. You have a flight
control system element that's jammed for no apparent reason.

Therefore you have no idea what it might do if you mess with it, so
if you can land with it in its current state, then leave the damned
thing alone, and land.

Sheesh!


Do tell us more. You appear to be breaking new ground in
aeronautical science here ........... Well, breaking wind, anyway.

It seems to have been obvious the NTSB too. Just not to the crew.


Lots of things are obvious to pilots.
Like wannabe ****s who are needy enough to try and get any attention they
can, good , bad or indifferent by amking compleat asses of themselves on
usent.
