Yes there have been many, overall its a great show, but a quick summary: They go flying a lot, cargo can't get to destinations because it's -40 below and they don't operate at this company when that cold (don't blame them) lots of changing tailwheels and engine parts in howling open ramps, some hot...

Have there been additional episodes ? Please summarize and report .

The second threat I would list to aviation safety is: http://torontoadvertisinghallofshame.org/IMAGES/040108%20snips_small.jpg I realize most security measures are done simply and only for public perception, but is the general public really that stupid that they think an "airport" is confi...

Those AD members who have been around for a while will remember why I think that the following photo is an example of the greatest threat to Airline security. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/92/245057630_0a8ebd45f3.jpg?v=0 It is meant as an example only, and you could fill in just about any item tha...

Interesting FB thanks, always been curious about how they operated.

So DP what about the NetJets guys and the like, do they follow the same rules or do they operate as a private aircraft?

Canadian airlines have been told amongst other things, some interim measures due to the latest attack: 1.)Blinds SHALL remain shut when operating below FL180 in American Airspace 2.)Within 1 Hour prior to arrival and inside US Airspace passengers MUST remain seated. (No Bathroom use either) 3.)Withi...

Unlike the title of this thread, and the posts so far, it apparently is much more serious than it first appeared on this site: Explosive device set off aboard airliner http://www.cnn.com/2009/TRAVEL/12/25/airliner.firecrackers/index.html Considering he appears to be admitting to try and blow the pla...

Merry Christmas to you,

But since everything is supposed to be bigger in Texas, I expect a Pick-up Truck sized "lump" of Coal, delivered in person by an MD-11.... well if you really want to be nice anyway.

How about simply a complete electrical failure, followed by a crew distracted trying to resolve the issue and begin a slow descent into the water? Not like similar events haven't happened before. Is that consistent with the reported evidence of a relatively level-attitude but high descent rate impa...

Looking at the nose of that aircraft, I would dare say the flight crew is lucky to walk away, let alo...

Well I guess it's not just Air France who makes bad landing decisions, luckily no ravine at MKJS for them to fall into.

Breaking news.... There were no initial reports of fatalities, but Daryl Vaz, the country's information minister, told local media that 40 people were injured. "The injured passengers have been taken to the Kingston Public Hospital," Mr Vaz told the Jamaica Observer. The Jamaica Gleaner ne...

That is what I was eluding to when I said "apparent" I honestly have no idea what if any limitations todays equipment have. Don't forget when RVSM rules were being drawn up the Concorde was still chasing pressure waves all over those levels of airspace, (ok well higher than that, but they ...

sorry Brad, I thought my reply went through but apparently it did not.... FL420 can't REALLY be blamed on RVSM airspace, since FL420 is not inside RVSM airspace (FL290-410). The reasoning for the 2000' separation above FL410 is due to apparent equipment limitations and accuracy, which I would find q...

Another fine Canadian Aircraft which has served its time.

AHHH HA!!!

This makes more sense now...

What's more amazing to me is that a box jockey managed to figure out an Iphone without smashing it to bits...

I will accept that answer as being in the close enough category...

Sometimes we have slow pilots who request FL420, which I'm sure all of you aviation prodigys know doesn't exist
