I took a look through some of his other posts - I'm not even sure if he's a native English speaker, and a pilot he certainly isn't. Just someone with an unhealthy interest in aircraft crashes.


By the way "readywhenreaching", I have 20 years of experience of flying the BAe146 and I, for one, am still eagerly awaiting your report into how this was an unstable approach in the circumstances.
Perhaps a bit unfair IMHO leave the hounding to someone else

Anybody any thoughts, on someone putting a J41 in there on a regular basis, like twice a day, 6 days of the week..? :eek: :confused: :{
Sorry for it being slightly off thread..

A bit off-thread as well, but in '96 I found myself as SLF in an early model 737 landing at Queenstown N.Z. From a PPL's perspective I thought that was a bit erm... interesting!!

Re putting J41 in.

Don't see why not - you got any reason for querying it?
I assume you talking about Eastern and BP. No reason not too - the place can be Wx limiting and you would probably struggle to fill the airplane but as long as everyone is well briefed no bother. Highland used to go in the 31 very frequently, and still do occasionally.

Well, this was not a waterfall approach, but a LLZ 13 offset (14 degrees)
After breaking out at minima (412 agl) the pilot did a right turn towards the runway and than had to correct with a left turn to align with the runway.
