Gullibell,
I too have held the idea of flying it till I "have to ditch" rather than "land immediately" as the checklists for many aircraft require.
How did so many of us arrive at that mindset?
How did we come to believe the transmission would give us plenty of warning before it made us passengers on a very terrifying but fatal thrill ride?
How did our system of training, checking, and engineering knowledge get supplanted by the existing Conventional Wisdom?
DAR,
Can you point out in any Training document or technical paper where the S-92 clearly states there is an allowable 30 minute run dry procedure?
Are there any Training Captains, Conversion Instructors out there that have stated during any training program, check flight, or tea room conversation that the S-92 has an authorized 30 minute run dry procedure when discussing the Emergency Check List?
