Surprise. Well trained pilot made such a big mistake.



I wonder how those 911 hijakers who had no experience to control a Boeing could fly to their destination and accurately hit their target - all three of them. They must be genius.

terrorists actually flying the craft with no navigators, this one on autopilot which is not perfect.

I wounder how idiots explain to all those on the planes that hit...that there planes did not really hit.

Look at the aerial pictures of where this runway was and the ones at McDill are. Very close. Same direction.
Not a good mistake--but things happen.
No big deal.
