The Northwest pilots who overshot Minneapolis by 150 miles are appealing the revocation of their licenses.
The Federal Aviation Administration revoked the licenses of Captain Timothy Cheney and First Officer Richard Cole, saying they put the 144 passengers of Northwest Flight 188 in serious danger.
Cheney and Cole told investigators they lost track of time and the location while working on their laptops. They failed to communicate with air traffic controllers for 91 minutes, raising national security concerns.
