I believe that “The Dubliners” did a song called “The Sick Note” that this may be based upon.

Funny none the less.

5. Forty-fivers – those drivers whose sole aim is to do 45mph whether the speed limit is 30 or 60. They’re right up you’re exhaust pipe through the town centre until they overtake in the most dangerous place, and then out of town you catch them up and you can’t get past.

I have a theory that people who only go as fast as 40-45 only do so because that is the highest speed they can see on the spedometer. You will notice that these drivers are normally short, woman and sit with their seat so far forward that the top of the steering wheel obscures the upper portion of the speedometer.

5) People who think buying an iPhone is somehow big or clever.

It is clever, and incredibly useful piece of kits that means I have to stuff less items into my pocket. Not only that, but it is far more intuitive than any other phone. May I be correct in thinking you have never used one?

What’s with people going for EGPH? Can you not be intrigued by something unless you believe it to be true?

I suppose that is why they are called theories, and not facts…

And how likely is that, given the numbers of the type in service around the world?

It has not stopped them before. The more of one type that is flying the less likely it is to ground the entire fleet. It is why it was easy to ground the Concorde.

I believe their is an issue whereby there is only one RA input into the AT during a coupled approach. There could well be a case were the RA fails or gives erroneous data to the AT system which would then give problems.

That is both moving and very original.

If there is a good restaurant (rare) in the departure lounge, I take food from there. 😎

Rare indeed, and often quite expensive “glop”.

Well, there are a lot of 737s flying around the world.

Good. Very Good.

However, back onto Adam Air 574. What it really shows is the principal flaws within the region, from engineering to crew training to the general safety culture or lack thereof. The disproportionate number of accidents within the region is only further proof.
