Sure- beer was sometimes involved and neither the SA (nor the seriousness) was the same as in a real plane...but I compare that to a situation of where you've made thousands of landings and everything is going the right direction...it all LOOKS good, and you are a bit tired...
...sometimes it's that simple.
I 100% agree that it was crappy flying- but even good pilots sometimes screw up.
