I admire our BA girls for their poise and efficiency. The can be said for most National Carriers. I've experienced the following carriers: Air Canada Aer Lingus BA KLM Lufthansa Qantas Out of the 6 I rate Qantas the top with BA 5th (& you'd be surprised who I rate 6th) :-) |

I have also flown internally on American Airlines (previously American Airways), Air Canada, and Ryanair to Knock Regional airport. I still rate BA the best carrier and won't by choice use any other. Yes of course "flying the flag" comes into it as well. Ryanair. Lol. I don't think they have any stewardesses anymore taking care of the security and safety onboard. RTFM. |

We all know what RTFM means, is that of any relevance here? What? You don't read the safety instructions that you find in front of every seat when flying? Oh Perhaps not Ryaniar's flights. |

Aircraft safety is not a case for jocular comment I know! But this is Cafe SETI. Do you know what Coffe Talk means? |

As an educated Englishmen yes I do. You don't have to be educated or an Englishmen to know that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiJkANps0Qw |

There's an old wartime saying: There are old pilots, there are bold pilots, but there are no old bold pilots. Wonder if these fools will ever realise that fact |

It is one thing putting one's own life in danger, but to put others at risk is selfish and stupid (self edited to reduce the mods workload) Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

If you read the report... Police said that the cause of the crash had yet to be determined. |

Scary! "But he still worries about the greater control computers have over flying. He said that pilots were never given any indication in training that a computer could 'go completely haywire and try and kill you.' " |

Oh dear. No backup in place it seems Fixed - Just after midnight Transport for Greater Manchester said it was "not an issue Metrolink has experienced previously". |
