FOQA erroneous detection part II
First of all l would like to thank each one of your messages, very good points. So l asked to review the data and to me it looks like a clear updraft, no egpws activation, no airspeed change, no glide slope deviation, no change in thrust and fully configured for landing well before the event was registered. My main point to my chief was that in order to have a rate of descent of 1500 feet per minute and no glide slope deviation, our ground speed should have been 300 knots. He was not interested to the facts, l guess he was sticking to his alternative fact, one only, rate of descent 1500 fpm. My first officer, local guy, thought he could persuade them, not interested either. I personally thing FOQA has improved safety overall, but unfortunately the use of it sometimes has created an histeric paranoia between pilots which often becomes the problem and not the solution. Thanks again to all of you.
