Great story - The Gimli Glider

[mybrainhurts]

This was the subject of one of the Air Crash Investigation (?) programmes.

One of the lads on bicycles did an excellent st-my-pants performance...

Next time, lads, head for the side of the runway...

Trying to outrun a 767 on a bike is not A Good Idea...

Did a dead-stick approach at the end of my last sim. Wasn't a great drama to be honest. Just had to be REALLY close to an airfield....
Bit academic now I've just lost my job today.
