Default Re: BA Flight 5390 Accident

I remember this incident well. Somebody got some pictures of the guy hanging out the window as they were landing. This generated a lot of discussion in cockpits about whether or not our captains could count on junior crew members to hold on to them if they were getting sucked out the window. The consensus was probably not.

Comes to mind the scene in a Fish Called Wanda where Otto is hangin Archie out the window and telling him to: "apologize". Except the request would be to promise to "retire". [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
