Laptops Contributed To Pilot Error
Federal safety investigators are citing use of laptop computers among the factors that caused a Northwest Airlines pilot and copilot to become distracted and overshoot their destination of Minneapolis by 150 miles. What do you think?
Alexis Carter,
Aperture Mask-Etcher
"Well, flying Northwest is such a pleasure that I'm sure most passengers would jump at the chance to log an extra 150 miles with the airline."
Davis Sheedy,
Machine Operator
"I remember a simpler time when tipsy pilots were busy clinking glasses together instead of looking at websites as they sailed past their destinations."
Ryan Hayes,
Systems Analyst
"It could have been worse. That plane could have been going to Barcelona. Can you imagine missing Barcelona?! So frustrating."
