Air NZ flight leads Qantas flight across Pacific

Crikey! Good thing the Phillies knocked off Tampa Bay. Those Rays are deadly!:yikes:
 
Hmm. Talk about making a huge issue out of a basic non event. There HAS to be more to that story.
 
Passenger Sean Lygo is a moron. If he had not called the news service, it would have been a nonevent. His 12 seconds of fame. Expect to see another 14 minutes and 48 second of him soon.
"Flying blind" indeed.

This kind of stuff is kinda sorta why some Captains at UAL don't like to use Channel 9.

That is what I was thinking too Greg. Channel is pretty cool, but far too often laymen have no idea what they are really listening too nor what it means. Flying is still very mysterious for the vast amount of the public. A quick look on youtube and you will see all kinds of stupid videos of people claiming near collisions. like this one

Oh my GAWD! that plane must be what 3 or maybe 4 miles away on a parallel course!! He is lucky to be alive!!! [/sarcasm]
