There are always exceptions.
I was thinking of asking you some questions about the aircraft you
fly. I was reading where the copilot who crashed the airbus up in
Queens several years ago crashed it because he was too heavy-
handed on the tail controls and actually caused some of the
tail or control surfaces to break off. I was wondering if you
or the average pilot has a mental picture of what's going on
when controls are worked.
Do you know for example what actuates the flaps and have
you taken the time to work with a mechanic so as to familiarize
yourself with the equipment you fly?
It seems strange that a pilot could break an aircraft by being
heavy handed. This tells me that particular pilot did not have
a clue as to the machine he was operating.

You ask a very complicated question, Captain. I don't really know how I
can explain this in "sailing" terms.
It would take me hours to express all sides of the incident, but to make
a
short summary, the engineers knew of this danger, and somehow it didn't
get
down to the "pilot in command".
If you buy me dinner, I would be happy to elaborate freely on this
subject.
After all, I wouldn't want to bore the gay sailor's in this newgroup
about
something they have no clue about...

Dear LP
A most excellent idea! I'll be my pleasure to buy you dinner and
cocktails while you educate me as to the ins and outs of empennage
design and construction. It's not often a man gets to enjoy the
company of a beautiful lady who is also highly intelligent and
versed in things mechanical.
