Anyone fancy flying long haul tomorrow?

[clarissa !!]

lol clarissa, as I've explained a few times, we do it cs we like it, like whatever you love, say makeup, you'll do your makeup for like 10 hours enit (thts what girls do they dumb ye) and we do flights for 6 hours dear x

seriously though, nothing takes me 10 hours other than sleep. i couldnt bare spending that amount of my time at a pc.

Hate to be a geek..

But when you go on any plane, to spain or just Gatwick to London.. Do you think the pilot actually sits there for the whole flight and flies it manually?

Umm, nope! - They litrally take it off to about 500ft, bang autopilot on and thats it til about 300ft on the ILS at the arrival airport!

yeah but when its on autopilot you still need to be there to change the heading and stuff?

yep, the fmc does it all. The FMC can also do autoland I think.

Yup.. No point in letting autoland do it unless you cannot see the runway lol.

Plus if it lands and your not there, then well your gonna errr run off the end of the runway because it wont make the throttle idle and brake for you.
