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.



What a fjukwit


Please note that Berties disagrees here. He wants the right to meddle.
Perhaps he wants to join those ace Alaska Airlines pilots, wherever they
are now.


Serious fjukwit.


I'm blessed.

or even better than even I thought.

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.
