Right on!! bbg (Page 51)

Didn't we go through this with the Dominica 757 crash?? Problem is the warnings don't shut up--goes back to a CV-580 crash in the midwest-they ingested a bird right at rotation and the engine autofeathered-the pilot was a veteran but the speaker was shouting "Pull Up, Pull Up................." he never got back the speed he need to recover - because?? Yea - He pulled up. I memorized the locations of the Aural and Speaker CB's on the 757 so I could shut them up and keep my head straight during what was obviously a warning malfunction. What's happening here is the Automation is not assisting pilots anymore -- pilots are trained to assist automation = Bad Formula! Standby for more of the same in the future until they get the formula changed-if ever!
