September 30, 201114 yr "It's not gay if you're underway." Yeah, but they're not. They are standing on the pier beside the vaunted "domestically built warship". So...
September 30, 201114 yr A true WTF? if you ask me (I apologize you have to watch the 15" commercial in advance): https://xfinity.comcast.net/video/Comcast/14848679/ He hit the "full rudder deflection button"? Located right next to the door open button? Bullsh!t. Barney

Located right next to the door open button? Bullsh!t. Barney here's a pic of the panel...interesting configuration, especially if it isn't mounted upside down.
September 30, 201114 yr I heard that the cat loves late night pizza and listening to jazz records.....
September 30, 201114 yr And some of you thought Burning Man was weird... Mad Max Fans Hit Desert for Apocalyptic Weekend I am in
September 30, 201114 yr here's a pic of the panel...interesting configuration, especially if it isn't mounted upside down. I stand corrected. Thanks for the post. But still... WTF? For different reasons. 1. Engineering. 2. Verify which knob first. Barney
October 1, 201114 yr And some of you thought Burning Man was weird... Mad Max Fans Hit Desert for Apocalyptic Weekend M2, you're just pissed that they cropped you out of the picture.
October 1, 201114 yr M2, you're just pissed that they cropped you out of the picture. Wrong-o, old friend; who do you think that is in the upper lefthand corner? The weaponry should have been your first clue... And the Texas license plate should have been your second!
October 1, 201114 yr And some of you thought Burning Man was weird... Mad Max Fans Hit Desert for Apocalyptic Weekend It is fairly obvious where they were going or coming from...
October 2, 201114 yr So...if/when there really IS some kind of cataclysm that turns real life into some sort of Mad Max world, will those people feel stupid or vindicated???
October 2, 201114 yr I like how he "didn't see the ferris wheel until he hit it." WTF...either you're completely blind or you really like to stare inside the cockpit for gratuitous lengths of time. Glad nobody was hurt though.
October 3, 201114 yr I stand corrected. Thanks for the post. But still... WTF? For different reasons. 1. Engineering. 2. Verify which knob first. Barney Not sure how ANA does it but we have a Flight Attendant on the flight deck with us and we let them open the door. I've never used the unlock switch to open the door. Placement-wise, each airline designs it a little different. Our door unlock switch is located to the right and behind the rudder trim. Still not sure how you could mistake the little knob which is locked unless you lift it then rotate the knob with the larger trim control with no lock. Stranger stuff has happened, I guess. Lucky they didn't seriously hurt someone or tear up the jet.
October 4, 201114 yr DC-9-50 Nearly Loses Engines On Hard Landing I guess this is as good a place as any for this. I'm just impressed the mains were strong enough to withstand the impact and still keep it on its "feet." Daaaamn.
October 4, 201114 yr Well I don't have those fancy wheels that everybody has been talking about these days...
October 5, 201114 yr Weird. Maybe they meant Iraq and Afghanistan? Crack journalism everyone. Edited October 5, 201114 yr by SurelySerious
