Yup.
And I believe there was a flight out of DFW where prior to take off, the pilot and first officer were talking about the flight attendants they were banging and forgot to set the flaps.
That caused a couple hundred deaths.
My aunt was killed in a crash where the crew took off over weight.
They are, and the pilots would have noticed the gear was down because of obvious drag and loss of fuel. . .how dumb were these turd-world “pilots?”
The Indian government has renamed the cities that the Brits had anglicized: Mumbai is Bombay, Kolkata is Calcutta, etc........
plane was on auto pilot, until one of the pilots touched the wheel, taking it off autopilot. the plane then descended very slowly. Terrible, absolutely horrifying.
Who needs an idiot light. If I were the pilot and was having the same problems they were having, one of the first things I’d have thought was, “Geeze, it’s like we left the flaps or landing gear down or something.”
And then I would have sheepishly raised the gear...
The Florida L-1011 crash, correct?
Yep, just farding around. When you see a woman doing this, say it real fast and prepare for the backlash! But then again, ladies don’t fard.

I guess that Airbus thought that NOBODY WOULD EVER BE THAT STUPID!.......................

Airbuses are designed to be flown by people with no flying skills. Now they have to account for idiocy, too.
I think so.
Well Duh!
“The Indian government has renamed the cities that the Brits had anglicized: Mumbai is Bombay, Kolkata is Calcutta, etc........”
Before or after the Fraud began referring to his terrorist BFF’s in Pockystan?
The computer should have given the pilots warning that landing gear was still down at cruising altitude. I bet they were distracted by the sleek & gorgeous stew crew.
Yes the cockpit is more advanced. But then if the gorgeous and sexy stewardess walks in with coffee or Tea, the pilots can get distracted.
There had to be a warning indicator light on.
Women drivers.
I think the thing those passengers should be thanking God for is that they landed and managed to leave the plane at an Airport.
“Are you telling us everything.”
“Not exactly. We’re also out of coffee!”
