Single-handed 737 in 1980s

[Been Accounting]

I have been told that in the early 1980's crews that were being trained in Seattle were shown a film of a 737 being flown by a single pilot (with the assumption that the other pilot was incapacitated). All I have is a description of one scene which included sequences with manual gear release.

Does anyone know of this film ... and does anyone have a copy?

I did a B737 course at Boeing in 1977 and they definitely showed the film then, it was necessary for Boeing to demonstrate to the FAA that the 737 could be flown by one pilot, with emergencies, if the F/O was incapacitated. The film was done in the SIM.


Suggest you contact Boeing, they may be able to direct you to where you can get a copy. The pilot in the film was one of the Instructor Pilots who worked for Boeing.
