The co-pilot involved in the recent British Airways incident at Gatwick Airport mistakenly confused his left and right hands, leading to a critical error during take-off that resulted in the aircraft's brakes catching fire. Despite having over 6,100 hours of flying experience, he expressed surprise at the mistake and could not identify a reason for it. Fortunately, there were no injuries among the 13 crew members and 334 passengers on board.
