Re: Sunwing scabs the industry even further.
Perhaps the cadet couldn't keep a stabilized approach. A 200 hour pilot has 0 business being in the front end of a 737. Especially when they aren't allowed to land at certain airports. What if the captain has a heart attack? "Sorry folks, I'm not allowed to land here so we are all going to die.... ...

Re: Sunwing scabs the industry even further.
You can't train experience. Experience is what will save your bacon some day. Eventually someone will let go of your hand and you'll have no "experience" to draw upon.

Re: Sunwing scabs the industry even further.
15L is notorious for tailwinds on final. Perhaps they couldn't meet stabilized approach criteria and executed the missed approach? Good job I say. Carry on with your pitchforks and torches!

Re: Sunwing scabs the industry even further.
I heard after all the cancelled flights to CYSB earlier in the week, a "Cadet" was forced to drive a car from YYZ to YSB to position for the flight! If they can't tell them to F Off for something like that, you think they will stand up to a captain? CRM disaster waiting to happen....

Re: Bearskin Metro 3 CYRL accident - Speculation thread
It would not be uncommon for a plenum failure to be preceded by a fire warning light. Little crack developing to rapid fatigue failure. A fire light 10 minutes away would have meant an engine shut down 10 minutes away, and notification to either centre or Kenora FSS. Like the cadors says, things we...

Re: Bearskin Metro 3 CYRL accident - Speculation thread
Where did this 10 minute out emergency theory come from? I don't believe they've even heard the CVR yet...if things were normal until 3 miles, and then the engine problems occur, assuming on the extremity of it, it would make sense that they yawed left and ended up where they did.

This is an interesting read:

Re: Accident in YRL Nov 10, 2013
As you can see by the scorched trees all around, their was a post crash fire that probably caused the paint scorching. Although your theory is plausable, it's not the only scenario that could have caused this accident. We need more solid facts other than the media reporting what one of the survivor...
