First Officers....

Takes me back..(I did not want to place this on a certain Subject line for obvious reasons)


With all the "dramatics" associated with the recent death of the Continental Captain, it reminds me of a story, years ago, when a Braniff B747 Captain died en route from Honolulu to Dallas.

The First Officer made the routine landing at DFW, did the paper work, and drove home.
In one corner of Braniff Operations, a large group of Captains was huddled, all marveling at how a First Officer was able to land the huge aircraft without the Captain's supervision.
In an opposite corner, a large group of First Officers was huddled, all marveling at how the First Officer even noticed that the Captain was dead..

Those co joes should be ashamed of themselves. I expect the co joe to figure out the captains demise pretty quickly......by wondering why the annoying whine in his headset has suddenly stopped
