@jegga Yup!
Jacinda has said NZ will not provide him any assistance to get him back here (given he has no passport, or money)
Listening to a bit on the radio about him, apparently he got in trouble with ISIS for breaking some of thier rules...like drinking alcohol, making alcohol..can take the boy out of Hamilton...

It's probably really fucking hard to get Bourbon and Coke tins in Syria or whichever dusty shithole he was hanging out in.

Did he think they would pick on her instead of him? He's dumber than I thought if he believed that .

I laughed way too hard at that. What an absolute champion.

the story of Cathay Pacific flight 780
An awful lot more to that story. It wasn't a double engine failure for starters. One failed and the other was "stuck" at a middle range power setting that the pilots couldn't change, hence the high speed landing.
I know both of the pilots and they did an amazing job.
I have had a go in a sim myself and got it to a stop safely as well but fucking scary.

I hoped you'd find that post eventually - almost tagged you in it
I like the Air Crash Investigations stories where the crew and passengers are alive to retell the story!

@Donsteppa A bit busy moving house, etc at the moment - or killing people and making suits out of them depending on who you believe on the fern.
However I have found it and it is mostly true as I understand what happened. Saying it was a double engine failure is a push though. I won't go into it all.
I had Dave as my F/O for years, really calm sound guy and they got the deserved result.
