CL 605 in flight shutdown
 

Word around the bazaar is that a new CL605 had an in flight shutdown leaving libya!

Hi DV,

Any more details please ? Tail no etc

M-BIGG is the one.

Stay away, far away from this airplane and operation.

Its an accident waiting to happen with a captain with less than 50 hours in type who "knows it all."

M-BIGG? Was M-RBIG already taken?

Those "I have no clue, yet I still know everything better" guys (esp. captains) are really, really dangerous. - Let me guess: he has been appointed by the owner?

Not based in Luton is it??

What's this M registration? :confused:

LY - Lithuania
LZ - Bulgaria

N to P
N - United States
OB - Peru

Isle of Man, Taxparadise me thinks it is....

Was a topic here not to long ago.

It is based at Luton.

Is this the same 'know it all' captain who we all love to :yuk: ???

:E

"Is this the same 'know it all' captain who we all love to ???"

Not sure who you are referring to, but when we ran into the airplane the guy in the left seat was a real piece of work.

He not know anything about Challengers (said he was a Hawker pilot) yet "is the boss" and lets everyone in the area know it. I pity the people working with him.

Did anyone hear how long it took to get the airplane fixed and out of Tripoli? Assume that its out and flying now?

Wonder who that was??? Can think of a couple of likely candidates!!

605
 

Is this a certain angry Brit who has BS'd his way into many jobs and also been fired from many contract jobs ??? Late 40's with a nasty anger mgmt issue ??

With family name initials of C-C once well known around FAB/EGLF ?

No, in his early 30's or so.

You are getting very warm with the initials. No idea where he was from before but the plane is/was based at Luton now.

Does anybody know, what caused the in-flight shutdown?

Loss of oil pressure in one engine.

and do you also know, when it was returned to service? Libya is not the best place to ground an aircraft
