Spanair accident at Madrid

[justme69]

Thanks for the reply, seven.

I'm still curious though, as if you noticed the amperimeter for the RAT probe indicating current on the ground, but I still not sure if you noticed the TOWS inoperative or not.

Were you required by the airline to test them before each flight?

Also, I'm curious if you ever found out, in those 3 occassions you noticed the RAT heater on, if it was due to faulty components or pulled c/b's.

Also, I guess you agree that all the training etc in the world wouldn't have helped if the TOWS become inoperative due to other reasons (i.e. actual TOWS electronic board failure) or if the R2-5 (i.e.) relay would've failed only a couple of minutes before the takeoff, right?

And do you think you could've saved this flight from a stall under the circunstances it happened?

Thanks again.
