Near-miss MSP

[JAFI]

IMHO the Airbus crew did well. Hats off to them.

Capt on that flight is a 1986 hire that is now a Capt again. On the Nic he is placed below a 1999 AWA First Officers. It was a PHL crew.

Hey Cowboy shouldn't this thread be Near-hit MSP?

On the contrary... I hear planes at the upper altitudes go over us sometimes and we have 1000 feet separation. Granted I have to be above about FL370 and I have noise cancelling headsets. But it's a E190 and it's not a quiet cockpit.

These guys were close... I'm sure one of them heard the other...

Charlie,

True...I always wondered why near-hits are called near-misses. Good point.

Stole that one from George Carlin!

Expertly handled by an east crew- just like New York. I am so proud of my colleages!

You remind me of a cheerleader for a crappy high school football team.

One of the best! Glad I got to see his gig in Vegas before he passed.

I had George Carlin on the Brasilia into SFO one day and didn't even know it. When we unloaded a ramper came up to the cockpit all excited that George Carlin just got off the plane. I looked up as the pax were walking away and saw a little guy with a ponytail sticking out from under the ball cap.

Definately one of the most brilliant and funny men who ever lived.

Ugg. (Not the boots. Just dismay.)

how about "ugh"........

that's all dismay and completely unrelated to overpriced Australian boots.

Cheers - (not the yelling kind. Just a friendly good-bye )

I don't wear loafers for a good reason. Note the new avatar.

Thanks for the idea.
