    It's hard to take chances but sometimes it's better if you do

    Im surprised this made the news.

    Seems to me a good example of good airmanship.
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Something like this is really not a big deal. In fact it is completely legal to dispatch with the weather radar inop so as long as you do not operate into areas where weather requires it's use. Announcing to the pax what he was doing more than likely a bigger deal than anything else.

    747's are equipped with dual weather radars systems
