Well here we go again
Having spent all day in London on thursday with the publishers
I have to change a few things,which I didn't want to do.
Aircraft has landed safely,and put on a very remote stand for
obvious reasons.
Okay,I accept you cannot do a one engine take-off.In an ideal
world,crew go off to a hotel,and either wait for an engine
change or replacement aircraft.And you would probably be checking your crew hours.But here is when things change.
Negotiations take place,and catering,water are put on board.
Things go well for about four hours.But then things change.
Negotiations break down,and you end up with a stewardess
very dead in the front galley.Rest of the cabin crew are
completely traumatised.
So here is my question...
Capt has flown sh360,bae146-200,737-200,757-200,747-200
and then for reasons earlier in the book returns to the 757.
F/O has three years on a 737-300 before going onto the 757.
There is a B737-800 on the main tarmac.Could you take it?
Runway distance is fine,and all manuals are up to date.
Right,the cabin crew are not qualified either,but these
are not Jarops flights,and if you can take this aircraft,
unfortunately you have lost another four passengers.
One more spanner in the works
You have hardly had any sleep in three days.Not an easy day!
Well I did say I was going to push you 757 guys to the
limit
Best regards
