Slow down Southwest! --United off runway at IAH

[ghostrider64]

0530 arrival time, any bets on whether fatigue played a major factor in this incident or not?

Good one! Apparently nowhere near a large body of water, either! :beer:

Less posting and more practice on position reports m'kay ?

Bubba as I skim past your always lengthy posts here, I think with empathy towards what your FO's hear from the left seat on a trip with you. "WORK WORK WORK WORK..."

Me thinks Bubba is PHX based. They are the best to fly with just ask them

The airplane left the runway to avoid hitting a shirtless red haired drifter who was toting a zebco 202 and a open can of Pearl. So yeah, it was your fault!

Now that's funny

Yeah, sorry, I don't really get that, or how it could apply here.... But glad you have empathy, I guess... (?)

"We have received a report that the plane approached the runway at an extremely low altitude, which led to the accident, Mr Yamamura said."

"As for the angle [of approach], it was not normal," he added."


Thought they only used that technique in San Fran....
