Wayward pilots were working on their laptops

So, the laptops drowned out the noise of the flight attendants banging on the door?

Sorry, I don’t buy this lame excuse either.

"Interesting link of the NWA flight "

Now, that is an interesting URL.

And the MSM says bloggers have no expertise in journalism.

That site is really cool. It has a sectional map view! Thanks for posting the link!

Downloading Internet porn? Just asking....

This second excuse doesn’t sound any better than the first. How are you out of contact for more than an hour with people trying to contact you by radio, text message, email, etc. Perhaps both pilots have a man crush on each other?

Don’t know just saying none of this rings true

[Hacklehead]

That must be an incredibly boring job. Take off, sit for 4 hours, land. I’d go nuts.

Nothing much. older recorder only good for a 30 minute loop

[countess]

I’m guessing a union lawyer thought he might be able to save them with this excuse.

Coukld have really done without that pic -——

"I think they were doing each other."

That's been my thought all along.

...and if you don’t believe that one, then they were involved in a really heated game of battleship and lost all track of time.

They should be fired for lying. And if the liberals object to that - they should be fired for coming up with such a lame excuse.

[La Enchiladita]

Apparently, we’re not alone. Too bad our minds go to the gutter, but the explanation given doesn’t fly... so to speak.

You tell if a laptop has been used over a given time.

What is more disturbing than the fact you posted that picture is the fact that you actually knew where to find it!

Scheduling my butt. It was Resident Evil

It was easy. It's in the same folder as these:

Perhaps a TCAS warning would have supplied the necessary wake-up call. :)

[School of Rational Thought]

Oh, so they were only not paying attention. Everything is OK
(sarcasm)

[ALPAPilot]

NORAD was just about to give them that TCAS when they figured out where they were.
