He's delusional; he's into self-harm; he's flying airplanes around - what's the worst that could happen?

I mis-read the title as 'crock-pots in the cock-pit', and I was thinking that the flight deck is no place for a slow cooker.

[T.O.M.]

And who will win the best "cock"pit joke from the APS crowd?

Well, in this case it should be called a cocklesspit.  Or maybe all-pit-and-no-cock.

[Scout26]

I read it as "Cracks in the Crockpot".  to which my response would have been "Buy a new one".


Given Mr. Mrs. in the OP, didn't we just have a guy, who's cheese had slid well off his cracker, just fly a plane full of folks into the side of a mountain?

I thought a "flight station" was your home airport.

If it takes full power to taxi to the terminal, your landing gear might still be up.

Slow coming to the party...and I, too, thought it might be a pot luck affair in the air.

We can not allow mere reason and data to prevent us from being dominated by mentally ill people with sky-high suicide rates.

I can imagine that being the case only if you're flying an F-15.

The same applies to most of the mass shooting threads.

What if they self-identify as having their landing gear down?
