They most likely will be given the chief pilot position.

Dash speeding at a blistering 248 kts toward DC, now thats scarry.

I'm surprised it was allowed to land at DCA. I thought all "oopsies" were diverted to IAD.

That place needs SIDs and STARs

Agreed. For the NW departure I build my own SID... DCA328 to 20 miles. You'll get RVs by 10 miles.

ASA had three P56 violations in the last 6 months. I wonder how many violations the regionals have vs the majors.

A Milli A Milli

If they are given the chief pilot position, is that a promotion or demotion within the pilot ranks at Piedmont?! With all the "wonderful" things I have read about Piedmonton on this (and other) web sites, just wondering.

Really? uke:

I hear the F-16's didn't even get off the ground before the Dash landed at DCA.

You are 100% correct!!! is in the security briefing sheet that we all sign... maybe they didnt sign it witch means is ok, right??

Well, scooter- no cuts, no scars. So it ain't too "scarry."

But who gives a rat's tukus? I don't. Didn't land on a taxiway, didn't drop it on a house... folks deplaned with the usual confusion and the crew blasted off a couple hours later- if that.

I know them both, I know I'm not either of them, and I know I still don't give a rat's turd cutter.

The problem was the response on the ground (evac the Capitol with a main bang and flight plan on said target), not in the air! I challenge anyone here that flew a plane with more than, say 25,000 hours crew time in type combined, to not have a loss of comms with ATC. Yup, they done goofed up. Nope, nobody got themselves perished. 121.5? Argue ad nauseum. The real question is, "Did they have their shoes x-rayed or were they carrying nail clippers?" Too Stupid for Arby's wants answers.

It is all show. A damned red-faced embarrassing scenario? Hell yes, and the crew will get their pee-pees whacked as such. End of the world? Worst thing EVAR? OMG I can't believe they did that?

Hmm. Those that have, and those that will.

Learn from this lesson, and apply it your daily ops.
