      If I remember the crash report, it wasn't the kids fault: the instruments started telling them crap, something about a go around track.
      You just looked it up!

      No, the instruments were OK. The kid knocked it off autopilot and the plane put itself into a 90 degree stack pattern.

        No I didn't. I saw it on 'Air-Crash Investigations' (Discovery or National Geographic channel) a few weeks ago.

          Sounds a bit like that urban legend about the guy who had such a bad nightmare he had a heart attack and died in his sleep - From the few scraps of the plane left, how would anyone know what caused the crash?

                No they're orange but how else would you spot them amongst all the charred wreckage?!

                The wife and I got hooked on ‘Air Crash Investigations’ shown on National Geographic when on our honeymoon in Cyprus… so much so that we were scared about come home!
                Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                      Agreed, now if they could come up with some show that was this and mix in some Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it'd be top TV!
