Re: Bert and obscure gods...
Better cooling would be nice, but that's not an "Airbus logic issue".
I'd ask flyboy if he felt there was any airbus logic he thought was really wrong, but I believe his response will be: Better cooling on the brakes. (Shit, we're back to braking again).

Re: The Eidelwiess affair…
But what about the initial inability to climb? Do you agree that the plane was abnormally struggling to climb? Not really, no. Looks about right for a heavy 343 to me. They were going to Cancun, so probably fairly bulky. What about wake vortex from a plane landing in the intersecting runway shortly...

Not quite. Only the smurfs went around. In fairness, Republic didn't even try.Everyone and their uncle was going around- wind shear, visibility.

Re: The Eidelwiess affair…
This is an odd one, for sure. I've watched the video several times now in hopes of getting a clearer view not of the aircraft's attitude but of control surface positioning, specifically if the elevators were ever deflected downwards. The video is not very clear but it does NOT appear that elevators ...

Re: Important Improvements at Flyover[/blue font]
Not really, I prefer high-speed taxiways, generally speaking.
Question to flyboy: Do you see these taxiway changes from numerous, frequently angled taxiways to a more regular, 90-degree crossing as an important, much-needed improvement.

Re: THERE HAS BEEN A NEAR TOTAL AIR DISASTER AT FLYOVER!!!!!
The Airbus has GUARDED SWITCHES. I recall, Evan the Expert being obsessed with those, too.
I would hope that Flyboy's Air Bus activates the fire suppression FOR him so he is free to check in with the Jetphotos Safety Forum.

Re: Radar Attenuation
Couple things. On the one hand, the Electra has an old-style monochromatic radar that probably wasn't terribly useful for picking out individual cells. On the other hand, this happened during daylight, so it's not like they didn't have a visual on the weather. The part about "everyone deviating...
