Oh, well. Better than getting locked out of the bathroom.
That’s why I always ask for two spoons when I fly over water.
You never know when they got the wrong airplane and you might have to row.
Oops. What they are talking about is an ETOPS certification, required for extended overwater operations. Not all aircraft within a model are ETOPS certified. It can be for a number of different equipment reasons. This is a big deal because it took a lot of people all screwing up in their jobs for this to happen.
Well, what else could they do at that point?
If it was not certified to fly over water by the gubment how in hell did it make it to Hiwai? That’s impossible without a gubment stamp!
Not much would get me on a plane these days………if I can’t drive there, I don’t go there……...
I wouldn’t expect this story to get big play in the Dallas News. Now, if it was about Delta, it would make at least a section front in that paper.
