Actually, no. The standards had changed between that DC9-32 and this 738. But you keep on keeping on, Gabito.Thank you for bringing up an accident that happened to an aircraft with black boxes built to the same crash, immersion and fire resistance standards.

Re: China Eastern 737 down
Double post: Do we think the black boxes survived? I don't know, but there is a chance that they did. In 1997 there was a DC-9-32 accident where the pilots got a bad airspeed reading due to the pitot tubes getting iced up, but they thought they were really loosing speed. They added full thrust, the...

In Argentina in any sentence up to 3 years they always get parole guaranteed by law unless the criminal act was committed while under parole for a previous crime, in which case they may still get parole anyway (for example if what remained of the previous sentence plus the new sentence doesn't add ...

Am I the only one seeing some fun ironing in Sam using judgement?

Re: Typists, October 2021.
Always remember that, Gabriel. Always.Besides, he is an airline captain charged with doing this kind of judgement calls. I am not. I can write as much as I want in an internet forum but that's as far as I can go.

Re: What the...?
It's not common, but it happens. A number of airlines have bizjets in their fleet and those airplanes sometimes use airline flight numbers rather than aircraft tail numbers. In general, 8000 or 9000 series flight numbers are reserved for non-revenue flying.

And you'd be already established on final by then or you can be already at Vref and still have significant turns to make?

Re: Airbus Fights Qatar
Among the things in which I am absolutely not an expert is commercial aviation business. But it just occurred to me that Boeing should develop 2 new times concurrently, like they did with the 757 and 767, except that this time it would be the new 737 and 757. The new 737 would return to the roots. ...

Re: Harrowing screams form Learjet pilot
If you have to do a pattern (be it an IFR circling approach or a VFR circuit pattern) that, for any reason (visibility, terrain, traffic) would not allow for a long final, what speed and flap / gear config would you have at each stage? In particular, at what point would you have the plane fully con...

Re: Harrowing screams form Learjet pilot
Couple words about circling in general. In the US, it's a fairly rare maneuver. Perhaps because it's not required very often, most runways with any significant amount of traffic in this country have at least one straight-in approach of SOME kind. Hence, I would imagine most professional pilots, exce...
