Is this the Comedy Channel?


Actually.....with your post here, there's a good chance that it's well on
the way to becoming just that!! :-)

Hilarious stuff though, a Pilot discussing the relative methods of landing
an airplane with a Bombardier. Really funny.


Glad you enjoyed it, but rather than simply laughing yourself to death,
perhaps you would care to add some comment a bit more pertinent to what
we're discussing? Are you experienced perhaps in either the pilot's or the
bombardier's point of view on these matters? Are you experienced in high
performance heavy twins? Are you perhaps familiar with the crew duties of a
bombardier in the B26? If so, when you finish laughing please join in the
discussion with us so that Art and I can laugh a bit ourselves. I'm sure
both Art and myself might benefit a great deal from what you might have to
offer about landing a B26 Marauder. I have to admit, I haven't landed one
myself, although some might say I know a little about what would be
involved. Art on the other hand, has been in a position many times where he
might have had to land a B26 himself. (Never hurts to cross train on a
bomber crew you know :-))

And FYI, this particular bombardier knows a great deal about landing a B26,
, the B26 itself, it's engines, and the general issues surrounding the
flying of the airplane; and this particular pilot has no problem at all
discussing these matters, or any other matters with him, as this pilot has
been doing for many years now.
