If a pilot is concerned that a loss of lubricant may have occurred, knowledge of the run dry capabilities of the aircraft is of critical importance in determining the necessary flight profile to ensure that the helicopter is landed or ditched prior to a potential failure of the MGB or related component failure due to a loss of MGB lubricant.
FH....cite the evidence in the TSB that showed the Pilots thought they had lost all their MGB oil?
The fact you cannot grasp is they never thought they had lost all the Oil....they thought they had other problems....not a complete loss of Oil.
That is documented in the Report.
This is not the "Little Ship Table" in a PHI Crew Room.....we deal with facts here and polite discussion here unlike the LST.
Quote us the section in the Report where the TSB explains the Trouble Shooting and mistakes the Crew made in that regard....and the reasons they made that false diagnosis. You will see they did not recognize the absence of an increase in the MGB Oil Temperature as being an indication the was not as expected for the case of having some Oil left and the absence of an increasing Oil Temperature would suggest the "lack" of Oil.
They were good Guys....but just got it wrong. The Captain made some bad decisions, the Co-Pilot was not assertive enough despite knowing what the "right" action was......as he pointed it out the Captain.
If you do....you will have to see the truth of the matter.
