Does someone remeber if there was metion of the time the aircraft stayed at eh blocks whilst the mechanics looked over the aircraft? I don't know if this is the procedure with all MD80 operators, but I have always been accustomed that the captain call for flaps and slats to be retracted during taxi in. Even if you decide to leave all checklist items as is so you can quickly start the delayed flight again, I think you have the tendency to call for flaps and slats retract even though the taxi in checklist was omitted. Does anyone agree that this could be an issue?
To those offended by endless dribble and nonsense, I'm sorry but with a major accident you will get more people posting. It is in any case MUCH more interesting to comment about a major accident, than to comment about MEL items in log books etc. So it is logical that these threads are MUCH more expansive. And to those who say that only facts need to be posted here. Than this page should have 2, maybe 3 posts. These posts would contain the same info you can find in any other news site. So grow up guys. Stop stroking those ego's. I'm an ATP and took the time to read through the WHOLE thread before posting. I didn't complain.

Reverse thrust...
heute.de Nachrichten - Traurige Gewissheit: Familie aus Pullach unter Absturzopfern von Madrid
http:// 3w.heute.de/ZDFheute/inhalt/4/0,3672,7298052,00.html
Report:
Weak engine possibly a cause...
With the search for the causes for the tragedy the investigators in the meantime obviously assume an engine was too weak. The fact that the airplane on the runway rolled unusually for a long time, before it took off leaves the investigators on this possibility to close, reported the newspaper " El País" on Monday with reference to investigator circles at the police
Long rolling on the runway
A video of airport cameras, held under catch, shows according to the report that the airplane put a much back to long distance on the runway. Loud " El País" it drove 500 meters beyond the point recommended for the start. According to the report one of the engines could have turned - an attitude, which is made with landings for braking. Thus it explains itself that the airplane leaned immediately after taking off on the right side, reported " El País" with reference to a aviation engineer, whose name was not called
An engine turned
According to the newspaper the investigators discovered at the scene of the catastrophe that one of the engines was turned (reverse thrust). Unclear it was however whether this was already when starting the case or whether it took place via the crash. Loud " El País" the video shows besides that one of the bearing areas arose first on the ground and that the airplane six times struck the ground, before it exploded.

which pilot was PILOT FLYING?
does anyone know which pilot was making the takeoff?
do any other douglas operators practice takeoff stall recovery? firewall power flaps 15?
that would have saved the plane, if my theory is correct.
pichu 17 has the idea.

Exsp33db1rd said,
we used a minimum acceleration check when I was in the USAF. Don't know if they still do but it was based on reach x velocity by the 1000ft or 2000ft marker. Very useful in the old KC-135 'water wagon'. We also computed a time.
Based on that previous practice, I began timing my takeoffs. I can't remember the exact numbers (now retired) but I think it was something like :30 seconds from application of takeoff thrust to rotation. IF it took more than :30 seconds you were heavy and if it took :45 seconds, you were very heavy.
Also, I seem to remember at least 80kts by 1000ft and about 120-125kt by the 2000ft point. I will have to begin timing my takeoffs again. It is not really relevant for my airplane now (C-II) as we don't operate off anything but long runways.
not a criticism, but I agree with NigelOnDraft, in operating 4 eng. heavies from 1958 to 1994, I also never even heard of timing to V1, but that doesn't mean it was never suggested,

Out of interest. The FA who survived. She was in seat 1E. An ordinary passenger seat. Is this common practice amongst cabin crew?
I beleive there were 6 cabin crew, for a 200 seater, meaning there are 2 more crew than required. Does the M82 only have 4 cabin crew stations?

For Tubby:
As I see it, the aircraft had an MEL item entered which may or may not have caused a problem for the take-off.
The wind on 36L may have been a slight tailwind, but this is by no means uncommon and allowed for in airline ops and especially at LEMD. It rotated some distance down the runway (at present not defined, but SAID to be ???'longer than usual'???), appears to have climbed initially to around 30-60mtrs with no signs of engine fire, before descending, POSSIBLY wing-rocking, and it is thought the right wing struck the ground. It veered off the runway to the right, leaving initial debris to the right of the runway before traversing unfavourable terrain which caused it to break up and catch fire. One engine was found with T/R deployed which would be in complete accordance with an attempt to stop. An initial photograph APPEARS to show a clean wing detached from the fuselage. A video of dubious definition of the take-off was recorded somewhere and has been seen by the investigators. There are reports that the FDR is 'damaged' but the CVR is reported as ok.
That, as I see it, is that. Total. If there is more FACT, or some of the above is incorrect, I would be pleased to see it posted here. Everything else elsewhere.

Whilst it is by no means certain that the circuit disconnected by the technician in this case also disabled the flaps/slats not configured for takeoff warning
If that probe-heating was deactivated acc MEL, what would be the consequences?
Anybody willing to share a pic/diagram of the MD8x circuitbraker panel?

Out of interest. The FA who survived. She was in seat 1E. An ordinary passenger seat. Is this common practice amongst cabin crew?
Meanwhile, details have emerged today about the only surviving member of the ten-strong crew of the Spanair flight - 27-year-old air hostess Antonia Martinez Jimenez. She remains in intensive care with bruises all over her body, a broken arm, a cracked vertebra, a broken breast bone and a stitched up head wound.
Doctors say the woman, who breathes through a mask, is out of danger and in a better condition than some of the other 18 survivors of the flight.
Ms Martinez, Toni to friends, told relatives at her bedside: 'I felt the plane judder violently to the left, and then right, before it went down.
'Then I felt a sharp blow in my chest that sent me flying several metres. I ended up in a ditch with water in it, which must have protected me from the flames.'
Toni, who lived in Castelldefels near Barcelona, emerged almost without burns and says she owes her life to being seated right at the front of the plane, by the window.
'Flight attendants usually sit at the rear of the plane, but I was right at the front, in seat 1E.
'That part of the plane was hardly burnt. It was a miracle.
'All around me I could hear people crying out for help. They were shouting and calling desperately but I couldn't move, I couldn't do anything.
'A few minutes later I heard the sirens of the rescue teams, I knew they were going to save me.'
As soon as she was carried into an ambulance she asked the nurse to call her parents.
She told them: 'Mama don't worry, I'm alright, a bit knocked about but fine.'

Let's not forget that "if" the wings did stall (airflow separation) that the wake behind the wings will affect the engine inlets and also cause them to stall-surge-bang.
ala All the DC9 series including the -80 series that pranged in off the runway.
The confirmation of this will be had from the CVR and/or the DFDR, however of little significance to the investigation.

Why should the wings stall? Has there been any confirmation that flaps were retracted? Does this model have leading edge slats? Presumably there would have been TOCW warnings if the flaps were inadvertently not extended when they should have been.
There has been so much hang-up on the supposed 'left engine fire/failure' and this defect that they returned to stand for that the wood is not being seen for the trees, and I just cannot wade through 44 pages of amateur conjecture. The description of the aeroplane behaviour from what I can pick up bears similarity to previous inadvertent flapless take-offs and those tragic flights with iced wings that are just unable to maintain flight. The alleged vibration/wing rocking says stall as you said.

Yes the bang could have been the aircraft contacting the ground but little mention of possible intake stalling so far. Could anybody please post the Barajas weather actual at the time ?

Rainboe;
The DC9/MD80/B717 model types have all had LEDs since the DC9-30 series built in the late '60's; The DC9-10 series had a hard wing, not sure of the -20 series.
The TOCW issue has been discussed at length in the thread as one of the potential (not determined!) issues surrounding the maintenance actions on the TAT probe (air-ground issue, forgotten checklist issue); Time will tell if the theory holds any water. The failed/exploding engine theory is set aside in some posts but the notion that either engine had a reverser deploy inadvertently or that either high angles of attack and/or disturbed airflow from partially-stalled wings was upsetting one or both engines is being discussed.
To date, nothing is known; there are only theories.
xander;
In an "air-ground switch" issue, the crew may not be able to retract the landing gear (had it happen in the '9 once - no gear up, no pressurization, etc - returned) but in the '8 if I recall, there was a manual way to release the locks (which was applied to the handle, not the landing gear, of course). Still, an airplane in "ground mode" wouldn't cause a rejected takeoff because the crew logically wouldn't know it was stuck there until they were in the air. QED.

thrust reversers & Captain - First officer communication
N1005C BND PJ2 T-21
Just wanted to thank the above posters for taking out the time to reply to my querys about reverse thrusters .
I see that another very interesting post refering to the reverse thrust issue has been posted by GP7280-POC which quotes an El Pais Article ( A usually very reputable spanish newspaper) See below
Long rolling on the runway
A video of airport cameras, held under catch, shows according to the report that the airplane put a much back to long distance on the runway. Loud " El País" it drove 500 meters beyond the point recommended for the start. According to the report one of the engines could have turned - an attitude, which is made with landings for braking. Thus it explains itself that the airplane leaned immediately after taking off on the right side, reported " El País" with reference to a aviation engineer, whose name was not called
An engine turned
According to the newspaper the investigators discovered at the scene of the catastrophe that one of the engines was turned (reverse thrust). Unclear it was however whether this was already when starting the case or whether it took place via the crash .
Maybe the reverse thruster issue is a relevant one especially as the video evidence on take off seems to show no fire in any of the engines .
However Im interested in another issue Relating to the interaction of a Captain & first officer in relation to aborted Landings & take offs and i need to know if the information i have been given is in fact true ?
My friend ( ex pilot ) has told me that within his airline if an aircraft had a techincal fault after coming off stand which had to be repaired and that the initial take off had to be aborted then the Captain would be at the controls on the next attempt at take off - even if the first officer was due to fly that leg of the journey ? Is this standard procedure/ practice within other airlines ?
Im very curious because in this general conversation my friend said that he had known during his flying career of Captains having to take over the controls from First officers and vice versa at crucial times when landing / taking off etc & decididing to abort .
He said this would be a split second descision and may well account for tany descision to abort take off and it going drastically wrong . So this may be why the reverse thruster was deployed .
My interest in this aspect of communication between Captain & First officer has been more than aroused by the below post
Ignition Override If a pilot rushes and does not coordinate with the other pilot, they won't survive a mistake.
Especially when you consider The Tenerife disaster and read the air accident report which infers that the first officer was actually scared of questioning his Captains descisions even tho he was very uncomfortable about the situation that he found himself in ?

XPMorten,
didn´t you mix up local and zulu times here? I thought the accident happened and 14-something LOCAL?
