Pilots have a lot to keep track of huh? It's amazing the amount of buttons, gauges and switches they have to know.

What?? So'd they go out for a beer or something????? (I may have nightmares about pilotless aircraft!)

mellodee,
i was surprised too when the pilots knocked themselves out while fighting for the peanuts that are now only offered in first class. there was a request for someone who knew how to fly the plane to come forward but by the time the got someone to put their hand up admitting they were in the air force (engine repair) the co-pilot had revived. the co-pilot did not get the peanuts though. they were given to a small child in coach while they were unconscious.
