Hi Guys,
I know I am going to waste a valuable posting space - but I cannot help meself!!


THIS IS NOT AN LTE ACCIDENT. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LTE. THE PILOT DID NOT SUFFER LTE.

Please do a search on the 100s of thousands (ok, a little exaggeration here) of posts about this distinction. He ran out of left pedal - no question about it - but HE DID NOT SUFFER LTE.

It is important that we do not label it so incorrectly. By doing so we are merely perpetuating a myth that there was nothing that could be done. We are ensuring that less experienced pilots will grow up with a false understanding of what is actually happening - and thus false actions on the recovery required.

Still think that is not true, or maybe that I am confused? I cannot get the audio to work, and I am not very experienced in the 206L, but.......I think hoverbover is on the mark.



I know I am fighting a losing battle, but humour me....
