Mike Schumann Also, the closest airport is not necessarily the easiest one to land at. He had to descend. An airport right underneath him might have been excessively dangerous even if it had 10,000' runway. The 777 is not a Cessna, where you can just circle over a patch of grass and land. And while the point is still valid, it was a 757, not a 777. I thought it actually was an HK-1, and Elvis was the pilot. -- Waddling Eagle World Famous Flight Instructor |
