Actually, the stop isn't that rapid (but it is low on directional control). There just isn't much friction produced by either the blown tire carcass or the four main wheel rims as they grind down the...

SLT,

Thanks for responding. Is the in flight "PARK BRK" message accompanied by an aural alert?

I posted an earlier question relating to the gear down BPTI check. Is that part of your company...

Mike,



Probably not operative in flight though? Part of the takeoff warning system? Any warning in flight that you know of?

A320 Parking Brake -- Accident waiting to happen?

All,

The ON-OFF switch parking brake on the Bus seems a little too easy to use: easy to activate (very slight detent), exposed to hands and sleeves and feet etc., and totally separated from the...

If memory serves, doesn't holding the nose off in the A320 prevent the stabilizer trim from resetting? I believe you need to land the nose within a few seconds of the mains in order to trigger the...

Question A320 Triple Indicator Check. SOP?

Hello all,

The FCOM apparently calls for a check of the triple indicator after gear extension. Am I correct on this score? If so, is this SOP at your airline as well?

Thanks in advance. Any and...

Macman,

You need to get over it. There are large numbers of Brits at both AA and UA. Far greater as a percentage, I would reckon, than Yanks at Virgin. I can't even count the number of European...

I'm relieved that the attempts to bootstrap S.361 on Homeland Security have come to naught. At best, it was a cynical and selfish play.

Respecting the right to work of those being furloughed, and...

The last figure I saw was one shutdown per 143,000 hours of operation for the UAL 777 fleet. Much better than the required 1 in 50,000 and nothing to be concerned with.

A340-600 Flight Controls

All,

The thing seems a bit ungainly (although attractive in a DC-8-73 sort of way). Have Airbus provided any software limitations on bank and pitch for TO/LNDG? Looks like a pod strike waiting to...

The concept is a good one, especially transPac. But the timing is bad. If Boeing had any balls left, they'd start development and bet on a revitalized market in 2008.
