All Commercial Airline pilots are BDH's in my opinion, it just goes unnoticed unless something goes REALLY wrong and we get to see it.

Seriously, ever listen to the CVR tapes ?
They go right on trying to the last possible instant, and of the ones that didn't make it, 99% of the tapes end the same way.
"Aw shit...*static*"

Another very interesting Airliner event was the Gimli Glider, you'd like that story too.

Commercial Airline pilots are one of the very, VERY few groups of people in this world that rate an automatic "Sir" from me, cause whether or not they ever have to prove it, they're all BDHs.

It cannot be said enough, those who do not learn from history, are doomed to endlessly repeat it
