Jetstar A320 Go Around Melbourne
 

Anyone know anything about a go around in Melbourne recently that didn't go as well as it should have?

What - they ended up in Hobart instead?

Stop straight?:}

come on guys ...some one must know the details !!!!

I heard third hand....it started the go around.......failed to climb away and came very close to the ground with the gear retracted........

You heard third hand!

You must be a journalist. Keep fishing!

Jetstar must be using that Airbus pilot who flew into the trees a few years back as a training captain. He didn't know that to make those things climb, you had to pull back a bit on the little joystick.

maybe
 

another go at a golf course:O:E;):}

wouldn't happen in a 717....would it Bloggs....sorry I mean Capn Bloggs :D

....... so on another subject.....hows the strike action going?? If the TWU ask for everyone to sign a resignation letter ...to be kept in a safe place ofcourse!!! I think it would be a really bad idea to do it !! :ugh:

Pierre the Planecrasher, didn't he end up over here flying for Ansett at some stage?

No, he didn't fly...got a job as the gardener at the Maintenance base!

Sounds like a Thronomeister issue to me!:=

Buster, its not always the Thronomeister you know, the Wobulator has been known cause trouble too. However a sharp thwack with a Knockometer can quite often fix it.

Is that genuine or are you pulling my tail :ooh:

The rumour I head is that the high speed Thronomeister decoupled from the sphetzner valve, causing a double diafragma failure :eek:

I heard the same thing from my mums unlces brother in laws next door neighbour!!:ugh::ugh:

And how many foster kids have resulted from that eh?

Hempy, that slight tugging on your cocyx (the one near yer sphincter) should give you a clue!;););)

Geez I hate it when you bloody intellectuals start using high faluting technical terminology - makes me feel totally inadequate. :(

Then to make matters worse when I try to look up the terms to get a better understanding they are not in the books I am referencing - can only imagine the terms come from a strata of intelligence and learning I will obviously have no hope of attaining.
Which doesn't make me feel any better! :(:(





cheers
galdian :ok:

Unemployed,

Absolutely not! We NEVER disengage the A/P so if you get scared you just hit the little buttons and skyward you go, Thronomisters or not! The other we've got going for us is the Prantle-Meyer effect due to having rear-mounted engines. Read about it in the wiki. :ok:

And yes, my little bit of paper is ready to go...NOT! :ugh:

Buster: You would have to be the most absurd person I've never met.


Love it! :ok:

No thronomisters on the 717, just a few hundred feet of clothes line :}

Clearly not a Thronomeister problem. Very likely, as has been mentioned elswhere, a quasi optical nuclear powered dipthong retarder, they give way at the most inopportune of times you know!

I think we need to get the Thronomeister up on Wikipedia...it'll educate a good number of people & wannabees...and, stop all these Journo fishing expeditions!:ok:
