Been there, watched this! Yes, in the old days of three man cockpits . . . every once in a while the ones in the front seats would have a disagreement. Meanwhile the panel puppy watched and listened.

It is amazing to watch the littlest thing totally, I mean totally, become the center of focus to the exclusion of everything else.

Meanwhile, there you are sailing along at Flight O-My-God at the speed-of-heat wondering when the argument will stop!

Right on

Math question - If airplane “A” is flying at 490 KIAS, how many minutes will it take to fly 150 miles?

A) Your mother wears boots
B) The dog ate my homework
C) Less than 20 minutes
D) I don’t “do” math, try someone else....

I can see two boneheads arguing for 20 minutes. I do find it hard to understand how they missed so many radio calls.

In any case, their flying days are over. Too many other qualifed pilots that want that job.....
