I bet if you were assigned to a work project where you were locked into a small room with little to do except talk to your lone coworker locked in with you for hours on end, and tape-recorded constantly, you might deliver something less than Ciceran oratory at some point too.

True, but he couldn't crash the small room into a neighborhood full of homes.

and they did, too .. The plane crashed into a residential neighborhood of Jefferson City, Mo. Through the Grace of God, in this instance, no one on the ground was injured but it doesn't take much to imagine how easily the result could have been devastatingly different.
I understand how tedious flying can be at times, but this sort of 'fooling around' over populated areas is beyond reckless ~ it is downright irresponsible.

No one locked them into a room. They were flying because that was their chosen profession. If they didn't like the conditions they could've walked away at any time.

A friend once brought a camcorder along on a trip we made from FRG to Batavia, OH. He recorded about 30 minutes of me in the cockpit, about three hours into the flight. We watched the tape about a week later. Talk about embarrassing!
