Wake Up the Pilots, We're Here

On the NWA flight that missed Minneapolis: These guys didn't just overshoot the runway, they overshot an entire state. Their story about being so lost in a discussion of company policy that they lost all track of time and place is not credible; what they had lost was consciousness with 144 people on board. I don't know a thing about flying but I'm guessing that it is hard to miss a metropolitan area of more than 3 million people when you are over it. Retire these two Corrigans tonight.
