Fred Wilson Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 What a metaphor for the way we live now: “The plane, which had 162 passengers on board, was left dangling precariously off a coastal cliff when its wheels dug into the freezing mud.” Link to comment

Fred Wilson Posted January 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 It will be very interesting to hear the cockpit voice recorder on this one - especially when the captain saw that water coming up as it nose dived over the cliff. Link to comment

Chips N Dust Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Reminds me of when that Korean plane landed funny at SF and there was a news station broadcasting the name of the cockpit crew - they were not real names but the newscaster was reading of the teleprompter without missing a beat.
