Pilots Don't Like A380?

A comment from a pilot... yet I've not seen anything like this elsewhere.

Thanks.

There's a reason why you haven't seen anything like this anywhere else.That article is in a class of its own.A very low one.

Captain usually gets first class grub and FO gets business.
Switching off engines and having to get down quickly check list.
Just when you thought it was safe to fly Kimchi Airlines. Classic!

Yup, thats my experience as well. Many many pilots don't like the A380......but generally they are the pilots sitting in B777 watching us pass above them.

Devil A-380:

Engines are not allowed to fail!
When they do let go, they have the ability to take an awful lot of systems with them:
When they do let go, spend an 1hr,50min flying about in a damaged machine,endangering the punters that have paid fares to be scared and wonder why they are not back on the ground, while sorting through all the electronic BS, then realize that 4 of you cant sort the Electronic BS out, just too much ****e! for the system to deal with, plus add a worsening aft C of G:

Then land and become a hero:

And dont forget the Airframe failed its G Load factor testing for certification so they changed the, lowered the limits to suit!



Now do I have all the facts?

oooooh! I hope you have dug your bunker deep! Its only because this is hidden away in the "questions section" that you have not received major abuse!!

By way, your correct, Totally! 1hr 50! sounds like it was the "self appreciation society" on the flight deck.

& they are hero's????

PR, CRM & bull**** gone to far.


Any room in that bunker.

Plenty of room in the bunker, (as long as you're not gay)
All the better if you are Female, and drink!
