Ok, I'll concede that belching flames and declaring an emergency and then saying, "Meh, we'll just continue", is mildly interesting.
Please discuss if so-moved.
And I don't really care about every last temperature and procedure and decision...
I'll just say-
1. I recall a comment years ago, that airplanes are so complicated that every flight has 2 or 3 "failures of somethingorother".
2. I actually have a good bit of trust in the procedures and guy's like Flyboy to make good decisions on when to land now, or to proceed on. (see footnote for a side story)
3. Is it possible? likely? that these guys here mad a bad decision to continue?...on the one hand, it sounds bad...on the other hand, maybe just a good old-fashioned high-bypass turbofart.
Footnote: Mildly ironingic: I'll always remember being "stranded" by TWE (Trans states or Corporate- don't remember which) when the J-31 prop reverse sensor light "went technical". Fortunately, they dispatched a rescue plane (The mostly empty 11:00 AM flight)- but it was kind of interesting that it was too dangerous for us to ride, but the pilots had to cheat death and fly the 'crippled' plane back to base and hopefully not crash it into mom's house in-route.

Yes, most of them, most of the time. Then you have British Airways.2. I actually have a good bit of trust in the procedures and guy's like Flyboy to make good decisions on when to land now, or to proceed on. (see footnote for a side story)
Re: Turbine Inlet Temperature and in-flight malfunctions
Well, that defaults back to the deal that we need better procedures for screening pilots.***Then you have British Airways.***2. I actually have a good bit of trust in the procedures and guy's like Flyboy to make good decisions on when to land now, or to proceed on. (see footnote for a side story)
1. If you get the crap scared out of you will you:
a. Pull up relentlessly
b. Default to fundamentals
c. Instantly execute the appropriate procedure
2. If the captain suggests doing something that is against procedure and dangerous will you:
a. Say hell yeah, can I try too?
b. I respectfully object and will write you up later if we live.
c. Say, "my plane" knock, the pilot out and call ops with your smartphone video that you had running from the start.
d. I defer to your huge number of hours and agree to humbly and quietly die at your side in ball of flames.

Fixed.Yes, almost all of them, almost all of the time. Then you have those incredibly rare British Airways instances.2. I actually have a good bit of trust in the procedures and guy's like Flyboy to make good decisions on when to land now, or to proceed on. (see footnote for a side story)

Almost all is more than most by how much?

Enough that we parlour talkers need to exercise a little bit of caution when we trash pilots and airlines for their screw ups.Almost all is more than most by how much?
