PILOT STORY
Who? A pilot of the Air Canada 767
Who is involved? The pilot and the passengers of the plane.
Who does/did the situation affect? The situation affected the
passengers because some got injured due to the rough nose dive toward
the surface.
Who said so? The newscast of CNN who reported and researched.
What? The pilot had overslept and woke up thinking Venus was a plane flying toward them.
What is happening? The pilot of Air Canada 767 was supposed to take a 40 minute nap, but it soon turned to 75 minutes.
What did happen? The pilot woke up very disoriented and saw the bright
glow of Venus and thought it was a plane coming their direction so he
nosedived the plane to get out the way.
What are the consequences? Some passengers were injured and woken up with a scare that the plane had crashed.
What is different about this? Something different about this is that
this rarely happens. Pilots don't often mistake a planet in the sky for a
plane coming it's direction and cause the plane to nosedive to the
earths surface. It could really frighten the passengers and make them
have fears of riding in planes again.
What are the choices? The choices the pilot made was the 1st instinct he
had, which was to get out of "the planes" way. He wanted to save the
passengers and moved out of the way.

disoriented and thought the planet Venus was the lights of another plane
coming towards them.
How? It was a mistake that the pilot had made. Just an issue of over sleeping during his rest break.
How did it or will it happen? The pilot had slept 35 minutes over the
right time and woke up very confused and disoriented. He then saw the
glowing of Venus and mistake it for another plane coming their
direction.
How much does it cost? It cost nothing in money, but it cost a well
scare from the passengers. Their lives could have been taken away from
them.
How many people does this affect? Everyone on the flight that was up
and felt the sudden drop was affected and caused them to be shocked and
frightened.
How do you feel about this? I feel that all planes that have long
flights over seas or land should have different shifts with different
pilots, so that the pilots can get rest while the others are guiding the
plane.
