would be great that the crew could be able to share with us this experience and what happened but I imagine that company rules will not allow them. In any case weŽll wait until a NTSB report of what happened and learn from it.

yes.....
Lawyers are generally a pain in the a*ss, but are not wrong when saying that flying with two out is safer on a quad than on a twin.
QED. to this, there is no doubt |
From the Maui news article: "The cabin filled with "foul-smelling, thick smoke," and alarms blared while the crew searched frantically for the fire..." If this is an accurate report, then one needs to wonder why the plane did not descend. If accurate, then this was a scarier incident than it seemed from the scant info on the initial reports. The only reason I see to descend is if you thought you were in need of ditching and if you can't see out the window due to thick smoke, well it most likely won't be successful. Run the Cockpit Smoke/fire/Smoke evacuation checklist...then descend when you can see where you are going. I'm sure they were running the qrh and if it said descend they would have. |
Fire = possible hull breach = explosive decompression.
Decent is Good Proberbly why it is on most QRH proc. :ok: |
