The avionics on a $250M aircraft can't handle a splash of coffee!? Get ready for mandatory sippy-cups on the flight deck.

Avionics & liquid don't mix. A Bloody Mary & a King Air's autopilot didn't like each other on a flight from Houston to Jackson Hole and had to land in Denver to be cleaned. The only thing I had left was the heading bug. We needed a sippy-cup!!! It was only a $5,000.00 Bloody Mary!!!

If I was the owner of the liquid avionics catastrophe flight, the crew would be back flying a C-172 at Acme Flight Training School if my ski schedule was screwed up !

Better safe than sorry - as stated.
Nice job to the pilot.
At least he was not in the "Can"
when decision was made to divert.
