A positive shot in the arm... PILOTS HAVE VALUE!!! Great job....

If I were a betting man, the incapacitation might have been the dreaded kidney stone...... Seen it buckle a pilot or 2 prior to flight.


Glad a cool hand was at the throttles...

Picked up a flight in SJC one day and the female captain came out of the cockpit saying they had to shut down an engine because of loss of oil landing single engine. Didn't think much of it until the FO came out, also a woman, so I said "Two women pilots flying a big jet plane on one engine landed and everybody survived?" She just smiled and said "Superior airmanship and cun_ing."
