Default The 777 crash - another theory

The article was vague but it sounds like the lady, through whatever
bumbling got put through on a phone patch to the plane. On 747-400

this
can not be initiated from the ground. Can it be on the 777? Tomorrow

I
may phone a friend of mine and ask. I can't imagine what actually
happened???? Can maintenance call up the plnane and access the ships
systems? Could it be a one in a million chance of it happening by
accident? Did someone activate their cellphone and call and say,

"Honey
wel will be landing soon."???

How is it on Airbus? On some I was told maintenance is always in the
loop. And if anything goes wrong a report is datalinked right away.
Perhaps mr airbus will shed some light on this???


Please remember that "The Sun" is roughly comparable to the "National
Enquirer."


Maybe even worse, but the scary thing is it's not sold in supermarket
checkout lines to people who bite the heads off chickens. It has a huge
circulation. One of the biggest in Britain.

Most of their other papers aren't much better and they actualy have a
few that are worse. Their equivelant of the Enquirer was called he Sport
and it was simply beyond belief. I used to look for it lying around in
pubs and such when I would be in the UK. (no way would I pay for it) It
had such gems in it as "World War 2 Nazi bomber found on moon" (I'm not
kidding).
But they really only have two what you might call genuine newspapers and
both of those are so politically polarised as to make them next to
useless as well.
