Updated, 11:11 a.m. | The pilot of a Continental Airlines jetliner died midflight on Thursday morning as the plane was en route from Brussels to Newark, N.J., the authorities said. Two first officers were operating the plane, a Boeing 777. The flight, Flight 61, was expected to land at Newark Liberty International Airport at noon.
Two first officers are “on board the aircraft,” and are piloting it, “which they are perfectly qualified to do,” said Arlene Salac, a spokeswoman for the Federal Aviation Administration at John F. Kennedy International Airport.
The flight took off at 9:54 a.m. in Brussels (3:54 a.m. Eastern time), according to Continental’s Web site, which said the flight is to land at 12 noon at Gate C123.
As of 11 a.m., the plane was in the skies over Canada, having followed its route south over Newfoundland.
TrueDolFanNew MemberThey'll be fine, this is the reason why every commercial airplane takes off with more than one guy qualified to fly and land the plane.
mor911Forum Veteranyeah both backup pilots are more than qualified to fly the plane. it would have been cool if they had to get a passenger to fly the plane...
Striker, striker, striker, STRIKER!

I don't know where I'll be then, Doc," he said, "but I won't smell too good, that's for sure."

Pagan, have you ever been face down in the mud, and been kicked in the head with an iron boot? Of course you haven't! No one has! It's a stupid question! Forget I even asked!

"A man's suffering is similar to the behavior of gas. If a certain quantity of gas is pumped into an empty chamber, it will fill the chamber completely and evenly, no matter how big the chamber. Thus, suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering great or little. Therefore, the "size" of human suffering is absolutely relative." - Viktor Frankl
