Alastair Reid   Classic Readings

Asleep in the Cockpit

Take Me to English Pubs Photography
   In the investigation of the crash of Colgan Air Flight 3407, much was made of the failure of the crew, leading the bereaved families to try to come to the defense of loved ones so tragically lost.  The pilots’ failures, however, lay far more at the airline’s feet.  Clearly, any competent investigation has to look at crew error.  In this case, however, the errors of the crew, Pilot Marvin D. Renslow and Co-Pilot Rebecca L. Shaw, are more attributable to errors in airline policy.    Mid-winter blahs have their uses. Light the fire, dust off that Homer's Odyssey you always intended to read, pull up a chair, good reading light and a wooly throw: let Spring come in its own good time. Alternatively, there's the cellar to clear of stuff moved in years ago. Or, you could tackle that geometric puzzle a masochistic friend presented to you last Christmas. All cracking good ideas that suddenly pale when compared with, "going down the pub."
