True altitude?

Well, zkdli, the Chatham was 1025 on Friday, I seem to remember, so that's about 12mb difference; at sea level that would be in the region of 400ft. But that's immaterial, really, since it was below...

Fix?

A serious effect, yes, Al.

I gather that the fix will be technical, such as active noise reduction. But since that will be a fair old cost, you can imagine that hard questions are going to be...

What to do about it?

You, nothing, mad_jock, thanks. As you say, the company and its captains are the people to convince of the doubtful airmanship of this practice. I have already raised the subject with the CAA,...

Snapshot of the RadarVirtuel picture

Well, I've grabbed a snapshot of the Atlantic Airlines track off RadarVirtuel website. Jim59. I'm not sure that it's going to work as a link.

I'm not sure that "brave" is a good way to describe...

Hmmm, since my last post I have discovered radarvirtuel.com. From this I managed to find the flight parameters of an Atlantic Airlines B733 (?) flying on an easterly heading over Gransden glider...

Confirm

7hrs 58mins per week, actually. It's to do with the low-frequency noise, 80 and 100Hz and the fact that it's constant and loud, I believe. The limit is 1:35 per day, and no more than 8hrs per week...

Co-operation

That sounds like a good bit of co-operation, chevvron.

I should be surprised if that happens around my neck of the woods, though.

Primary returns?

OK, now I feel a prat (ignoring BtB and Grabbers). So a controller will be able to deconflict gliders from other aircraft under normal circumstances?

I must admit that I thought that plastic...

T/O without clearance

Bad luck, SarahJS. As has already been written, ATC should not have mixed the call. And our job as pilots is not to let them confuse us.

I took off from Gibraltar without clearance, many years...

Stacks and NATS consultation

That is information that I didn't have, that the min level is the min leaving altitude/FL; thanks Vortex issues.

And your points about the NATS consultation makes me believe that NATS should have...

FJ and past noise

I'm not immune to a bit of irony, but the tables are most definitely turned, now, spekesoftly :-) (haven't got the hang of putting the emoticons in the text). There are far fewer FJ mates around...

Well, I suppose that's why I'm airing my ideas here. I don't know much about controlled airspace, except when I have been forced to use it -- very rarely. That's what the RVCs are for.

And how...

GAT, gliders and airliners in Class G airspace

Thanks for that information. But my question is, is it sensible or good airmanship to mix it with light aircraft and gliders? How is separation from gliders maintained?

Class G Airspace and rights

I don't dispute that; I complained about an airliner going over my house at 4,000ft, not about the one in the same Class G airspace as me.



I don't think you can have read my post: it was an...

Airliners mixing it with gliders and puddle-jumpers?

I've just been reading an old, closed, thread "LTN arrivals" and wonder about some of the arrivals which seem to have started flying at lower alts over Cambridgeshire, below the controlled airspace...

Military and orders

No, wessel, I think that you're wrong.

This orders "right or wrong" bit is very important: you have to have a legal order to be required to follow it. There will always be pressure if your career...

Flight Log suffers from server lag as well, that's not my main gripe with it. The interface is ghastly and counter-intuitive. It takes ages, because of the poor interface, to change things; and...

I've tried it for over a year now, and I am afraid that the company is taking the RAF for a ride. The interface is awfully clunky, and the recent upgrade seems to have made that worse. I am a great...

Flight Log is a right royal pain. The projected flying programme works OK, but the input system takes ages, whether you are putting together a flying programme, adjusting your input, walking for a...
