Wow. Almost 7 years old. Time for the aircraft graveyard?

Flight aware shows it land at Pearson. Doesn't make much sense to me to land a Q400 on a 3,900' strip single engine when CYYZ is a stone throw away.Gravol wrote:It landed at the Island.midwingcrisis wrote:Porter 637 C-GLQB Dash 8 Q400 shut down #2 engine due to oil pressure fault indication.

That's what I expect from me and everyone else: doing a good job every single day. Not less than that and as far as I'm concerned, they just did what they're trained for, so no need to mention. The're not heroes.
Re: Porter 637 Right Engine Out lands @ YYZ
I never mentioned anything about being heroes. Whats wrong with telling a flight crew good job for following procedures and getting the aircraft safely on the ground?Caracrane wrote:

We constantly hear pilots (or wannabe pilots) criticizing other pilots for their wrong decisions so it's always good to see pilots doing their job as you stated, nothing else.

I fully agree with you Sanjket but you guys are not wannabes nor in flight minimum trown-on-the-job trained but have the chance to be trained on multi-million dollar sims. Eric
