miles otoole said:FWIW, the Japanese Battleship Yamamoto was sunk by the US Navy, 60 years ago today. For all you doobie smoking, non-serving ingrates, this historical event will mean less than the day ALPA caved on the 8 hour duty day. "But the weather is bad and I am tired and I don't feel like flying." 65 year retirement, 10 hour duty day, 2 legacy carriers by 2015. Duane Woerth's legacy.
Ah the ship was called the Yamato. Believe it or not the Japanese didn't name their ships after admirals.
As far as this thread goes I gotta say the "just do an autoland" logic is about the most pathetic thing I've seen on this board in a long time. Why not add to that logic with the famous "just grab another cup of coffee if you are tired."
