Bad Luck - Dash8driver - 21-07-2006
On my return flight from Bangkok to Phuket, Thai 777, I was cruising along at M.78 when I wanted to switch to FS Navigator (F9). Well,
instead I hit F8 and we all know what that does. The flaps were destroyed and I had to make an emergency landing. Well, I still think they
are cleaning up the debris on and off the runway.
It was a pitiful sight and sound, one I hope not to repeat soon.

I hate when that happens. Same thing when starting movie or music with Ctrl+Shift+M. Or maybe your engines shut down and you want to try to use
Ctrl+E, but instead you use Shift+E.

i changed fsnav to use F12 for that very reason

That's not bad luck (as, there's really no such thing), that's just called, "Not paying attention!"
KIDDING! Please don't send me hate mail.
I remapped ALL my keys for FS - started with a keyboard template and a master list of all mappable controls, picked the ones I wanted
and aligned them on the template. I also put FSP assignments on there and now my entire keyboard is setup for FS and FSP with no
controls or shifts needed. I just removed all the key combos not needed or put them on shift functions, just in case but I never use them.
