Hahahahahaha….busted!

Airspeed250: Surely you can't be serious (!) If you think that's a decent wage for that type of work, then do us all a favour and stay away from the business…it's not enough by a TON! More is always better of course, ( try to think like a pilot who works for a living here please…) and a future is wh...

Ummm…say all again after: "What are we talking about here…" Over...

Yes it would…I should have been more clear I guess…I'm talking about fuel.

How about ice or water (or any other) contamination? That would make the dual flameout seem plausible, and that would explain the problem.

Did that PR say 2021? How exciting I must say...

To which counterparts are you referring to? If, by chance, you refer to Emirates, in the race to the "who has a better Business or First Class" there isn't much in it! EK is falling fast and the employee groups are getting close to exhaustion due to a very busy roster. Whole bunches of cabin crew fl...

What Diadem said! Finally it makes some sense to me, so a thank you for that! After 30 years in Canadian aviation and another 10 offshore, I thought it would be a great idea when the first bit of thinking surfaced about a "College." The understanding of what this college would do and how they would ...

800…including a large number of Direct Entry Captains…777…787…380…320 and possibly some 747-800 freighters…about 120 pilots from Alitalia rumoured to be included in that number (part of the purchase deal made) The training department will certainly have their hands full with those numbers. The websi...

Whoa, easy there pal. Did I say anything bad about the University thing? Nope…just asking is all. SO please wind your neck back in? Thanks…
GRK

When did the UNIVERSITY requirement show up? I don't ever recall that one being in there?

Aerosex,

Sheesh, what a grouch! But I guess if you said it, we all should believe you. No break given…

Aerosex…

You have two guys who clearly recall not flying any G reg aircraft…maybe not enough for you, but please tell up where you get your info on wet leases during that time? It's proof he's looking for, not hearsay...

You mean like "The Harper Government" does now right? Just sayin'...

JIB, Just a small point…yes we may all be, from time to time, a little complacent at work. The battle has been ongoing for years to combat that very thing. Is it not almost always true that in situations like these, (JB) our training is said to take over? There are dozens of interviews out there all...

You sure about that?
I'm actually at a loss here…

Dear Jack, Partially true, but in your example it has to be obvious to the cabin crew that they need to initiate. Uncontrollable fire, fuselage break up, no response or command from the flight deck after an overrun or rejected takeoff being a few of the most imperative. Asiana is the perfect example...

OK, so now that the media has been supplied with more fodder and the boys up front did actually call for a Evac, it does change the picture somewhat. At the risk, however slight, that we are arm chairing this a bit, I would caution that any evacuation must be thought all the way through carefully, a...
