Capt Bloggs,

Reading the Jetstar report, is it true then that to both select TOGA and have the FMS cycle to GA, the pilot HAS to select full TOGA power? There are no separate TOGA buttons, just...

I would think the rather large throttles NOT moving would be a more than adequate signal that pressing TOGA didn't work! That's the point of moving throttles--tactile signaling of thrust position. ...

I wouldn't see any harm in message being posted like "TOGA DISARMED" or your example. But, if they missed the throttles not moving; I suspect they'd miss the more subtle EICAS message.

How does...

I didn't say that the automatics couldn't be better, just the pilots must understand them and not blame an inanimate object for their own failures. The pilots in thus case didn't accomplish the most...

sptraveler,

Because the automatics aren't "right" of "wrong"; they just are. They are inanimate objects that do as commanded. Garbage in, garbage out. The crew, for reasons not yet explained,...

underfire,

Runway Awareness and Advisory System (RAAS) is a standard part of Honeywell's EGPWS, as such, probably on all EGPWS-equipped planes. Activation, modes used and alerts are up to the operator. It's...

Bloggs,

What's a "startle touch and go"? Touch and goes are planned maneuvers, I thought. The crew was apparently doing a go around. Should the T7 or any plane have a A/T touch and go mode. ...

I did 63 touch and goes and 3 full stop landing, in the plane (C-5), in one week. Some of them tactical arrivals from 10,000 at night to a runway lacking any visual glide path guidance and 7,000'...

As a pilot, not an eminent engineer (:ok:), move the throttles until I start getting the performance I expect or need. One exception, C-5 AAR, doing so could result in significant damage, but the...

Bloggs,
