Or 1 unqualified pilot bowling in the wrong alley.

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’.

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

Maybe they should put a local pilot on their wing to help guide them down, keep them on speed and on the glideslope.
