Did you like the lavs?

No

Rode on one for the 1st time today. I did not did dieded.

And you'd be already established on final by then or you can be already at Vref and still have significant turns to make? (like base to final) (Sorry, I intended to ask at what point in the circuit pattern rather than what altitude, I realize that I was not clear) I can carry as much as Vref+15 if ...

From Evanie The Great Covid Intellectual:

(paraphrased) I take an intellectual approach to this.

I didn't want to pay $60 for someone else's carelessness, so I locked myself up for a week.

Huhwa?

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. ...

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...

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...

No worries, the SigmaOmegaEpsilonEleventypointoh variant will put an end to it before it ever starts.

Christ!

TeeVee will have a field day with this one.

No,

Hey, a blast from the past. I don't see anything new here but it has been 18 years. Hard to believe!

14 years, but who's counting?

What the hell paint scheme is that?

ITS wanted to get us all worked up because we saw an MD-11 go around… He probably texted flyboy to be watching for the appearance of his genius airmanship on ad.info. It’s a miracle they didn’t crash, burn, and did died. He hasn't been on More-Death-Eleven since St Barack of Honolulu ruled this rea...

Acknowledged and noted.

Perhaps the reason why they didn't touch harder the first time is because they had already initiated the go around 1 or 2 seconds before touching down.

No. Watch the first touchdown. Really carefully.

Is not true.

Airplane struck by errant meteor. Valliant, skilled Russian crew steer plane away from school yard and nuclear plant. Pilots to receive glorious posthumous award.

Actually, the Captain already had RF's highest award.

Sorry guys for the long post, but this accident hits close to home in many ways.

That's OK, as is typical with your stuff, I stopped reading after the first line. The closeness of this accident to home is hereby noted.

Help us Odin!

Can we please not?

I see that airplane at Mid-Continent International fairly regularly.

I've heard several versions of that story, but each time it was about two 350s.

Why are "we" digging up nearly fifty-year-old crashes? Who gives a phugoid foque?
