The rising sun bursts into the cockpit, an intrusive wake‑up call, and we begin to prepare for the challenge. A Cat IIIb approach in a Lockheed L-1011, however, is a no‑brainier. I could teach any pilot to do it (as long as nothing goes wrong)."...The Man Say A No Brainier??..Teach any pilot to do it"...I guess you need that mental out look to do these things.. Truly they are "THE RIGHT STUFF"[/FONT]

That was cool. I'll bet that Korea Air 747 crew was looking out over the top of the "cloud deck" while they were taxiing! :icon_lol:
