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!

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!

There are 24 hours in a day... even I need a rest.

It's odd that they're not actually black though...

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

I'll do it then... Reminds me a bit of that Russian airline pilot who used to leave the controls to his 14 year-old son while he went for a stroll down with the passengers. One day the son got into a near-vertical dive and dad couldn't get back to the cockpit. Crash!

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?

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.

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

Hmm, fair point.

Actually, I've just looked it up on wikipaedophile, and it wasn't quite as fruitcake as I remember it reported at the time. It still crashed though, killing everyone on board.

And with four big jets screaming on the wings, plus the force of gravity, he would be more likely to be pinned to the bog door at the back of the aircraft!

Anyway, he never made it in time.

Hmm, fair point.
