the airline world, there is a Capt. Haynes who made a landing in South
Dakota a number of years ago who probably agrees as well that
independent thinking by an airline pilot is a good thing.


Yeah, but he had a bit of a different situation. He had a POH which said
it couldn't happen!!! Heck, even after they managed to get patched in to
Boeing, the engineers kept telling him that he was wrong and that there
could not be anything wrong with the hydraulics.

As you said, sometimes the "man on the spot" just has to think for himself.
