yep thats the bollocking

We have 7 mins average before the main spar burns through having in wing engines if its uncontained and the main spar is one side of the main tanks. You would be dead before turning base.

Every airport is different it is of course a completely different kettle of fish with say Dundee or Plymouth compared to MAN or Filton.

I also brief as well we are not stopping for certain reds. Cabin Alt being one of them which is the joy of flying a old airframe which has old wiring looms and microswitches that were developed for the lancaster bomber and a emergency brake handle from an Austin Clubman.
