Thanks for your replies
So GG would I be better using a 767-300?This is actually
in my next book.
I believe (flew on Air seychelles)that it can do about 11 hours
which would probably make it a better proposition.
So we get to the Cameroons,and you have to head North.
Can you fly a two engine aircraft across the Sahara.I did
it on a 720b,showing my age.Just wondering what alternates
you would have.And yes,the aircraft is aiming for the middle
east.
Back to the 757.
You are making a normal approach to a standard airport.
What height and speed roughly would you be doing when
you select gear down?
F/O calls that you have two greens,and one red.Nose gear.
What would you then do?Would you have time to retract the
gears and try again,or would you be doing a go around.
No nasty guys behind,just a charter flight.
You think it's an indication problem.
So gears go down again,and still the same result.You are
certain the gear is fine.Would you then overfly the tower
so they could have a look?
I know you are probably thinking I am mad with these questions
regarding my book.I don't write one chapter at a time in order,
could be writing chapter 22 and then go back to 4.
Most of the book is just about the crew,and most flights they operate are fairly routine
Many thanks
Thanks again
