Can't take the chance of two unqualified pilots messing up at the same time.

Can't take the chance of two unqualified pilots messing up at the same time. Or 1 unqualified pilot bowling in the wrong alley.

Are you able to send it (email) as an animated gif? How?
(I’ve tried various ways, but the animation does not get thru via outlook)

Can't take the chance of two unqualified pilots messing up at the same time. I am sure that is true, but the way you put it, is the politically incorrect way of saying it. As a former air traffic controller, I can say, what a hassle.

I guess old Sum Ting Wong and Wi Tu Lo will just have to learn how to land airplanes without using the autopilot.

Hmmm... could this have something to do with certain types of foreigners being peripheral-vision challenged? Ever seen some of our Eastern friends in the Bay Area try to use the on ramp to a freeway? Just sayin’.

I drag the file to the desktop from the FR page, open Entourage and attach the file to the email. At the other end, the recipient has to save the file to their machine and open it in a browser (”File / Open File...” in Safari).
Works perfectly on my Mac.

We call it “DWA” around Silicon Valley. This past weekend, a DWA-F pulled into the bike lane ahead of me and proceeded to drive in it for a hundred yards at 10 mph. Being extremely wary, I dropped back a bit. Good thing I did because she cut a U-turn right in front of me without looking at all. A very common occurrence here in Silicon Valley. No peripheral vision and, even worse, no head-turns.

Co-pilot Hu Flung Dung feels snubbed and thinks this stinks.
