I merely explained what happens in real life. I've never seen anyone try and hook up conditioned air while an engine is running. Electrical power, yes.
If you are saying that this incident was due to someone trying to connect conditioned air please could you let us all know where you got your information.
Is it common practice in some parts of the world?
You really don’t get it do you?
The air hookup is on lower left, reason for engine #1 being shut down and #2 kept running till ground power was established.
Ramp worker got ingested by engine #2 in an attempt to open one of the cargo doors.
Like I stated earlier the air hookup theory is why #1 would have been shut down.
I never stated that it was the case just one of the possibilities till someone said you don’t need air and that’s where the mudslinging started.
