Few years back,lost an eng.on lift-off on 737classic,didn't say Mayday,nor Pan,just told Tower what happened,requested climb straight ahead to 2000' AGL,performed the C.L.called for vectors for an ILS straight in and landed safely...Did it all wrong????I guess it very much depends on the circumstances of the situation you're in.My case it was in a period of very light traffic at the airport I was,good weather and all.I do agree that if you're in a place that's unfamiliar to you or in bad weather,heavy traffic and all,I would go for the big M or pan ....
Anyway,any news on tha ACTUAL mayday???????
