Ted, You are correct perhaps I should address what I see as bad information to CNBC and not you. Please accept my apology but the thread does say " CNBC critique", Critique as in 1) an essay or article containing an analysis of a literary or artistic work; review 2) the art of criticism.
I just see you as CNBC or at least a part of CNBC who stays on top of things so it is easy for me to forget and confuse you with management. Perhaps management should answer the fastest means of communication when hype or spin is being aired.
As for my comments, the are all facts or as for the crash opinions based in facts. You can wait for an investigation but having flown countless hours, many in military aircraft at high speed and low levels at night, often over water, chances are he didn't know up from down, sideways to be more exact.
Fly blindfolded and you will see. You can be sideways in a death spin and never know it because your body doesn't sense it. It is a shame, the guy had style, class, but he was at the time, the Captain of a hand full of plane, that was my point.
If you were flying and didn't know up from down and you believed you where about to crash you would think you are pulling up but be putting her in a nose dive that you would not feel.
The point I was making it is the Captain choice to take off and fly into the night with few hours under his belt no matter when people showed up. And the Captain ALONE is in fact responsible for his crew. The reporting of a late take off is secondary to the choice to fly, the lack of experience, type of plane, that most people who get killed flying are novice flyers than make a mistake, etc.
As for the FAA and NTSB when they tell me why the United Flight went down in Colorado Springs, I'll wait for them to solve something. Until then I'll use own experience.
I do believe I saw a man who said he watched them talk for fifteen minutes before taking off so they seemed in no hurry. A very sad situation.
Again Ted sorry for directing programming comments about spin to the wrong guy but I was reading English (eg critique). BLUE |
