There are non precision approaches that will not leave you with 2 whites/reds at the MDA/DDA. Someone mentioned 27 in San Diego. That approach will leave you slightly low on the VGSI which is why I...

I think there is/was a Jepp notam to say that the LOC 18 approach was usable at night with the VGSI operative. I still feel like the most likely reason for the LOC approach vs. the RNAV is that...

V/S or Profile can be used with a LOC appr and LOC* then LOC would be the FMA in either case. The A300 has a very old FMS and unless upgraded by UPS, it has likely been suffering from memory issues...

The A300 doesn't have an FPA mode for an AP approach like the 320 series and beyond. It does have a Final Approach sub mode of it's standard Profile mode to do VNAV approaches. If properly setup,...

We don't know the whole picture on this yet, but that call isn't necessarily suspicious to me. Personally I don't think they were referring to the weather. I think it may have been the Capt (PF)...

I fail to see why it being prepared to be towed is extremely suspicious, at least in the sense of foul play although I'm sure that will be thoroughly investigated. Don't know anything about the 787,...

I've flown the 727/737/A319/320/A310/A300, not in that order(plus a few other non A or B products). Looking back on it, the 737 is the one I miss the least. I agree that Airbus cockpits are...

Cool Why do you still call it a Super 80?

Aa73,

They're still called autothrottles on the A300's that your carrier used to fly. AFAIK, the autothrust thing started with the A320 series. I never got that deep into the names as after a...

First of all talking Airbus stuff always sounds 800 times more complicated than it actually is in reality leading to more of the 'classic' A/B talks. It's been awhile since I flew the 319/320, but as...

I guess we could play what a/c have you flown back and forth, as I flown some of the same ones you've mentioned, but I think my overall point remains the same-you have...

It's a distraction because you learned it one way first and there is very little standardization between manufacturers. As pilots whatever we've seen first we tend to view as 'right' and 'smart' and...

The eyewitness reports so far include the usual gamut of opinions about aircraft attitude and altitude. What stands out to me is that no one seems to have said anything about how much noise the...

It's been awhile, but I think the RAT will deploy automatically if AC 1 and AC 2 are lost above 90kts with the nose wheel off the ground, or it could have been deployed manually as part of some...

GF,

I have not flown the MD-11, I've flown various Boeings and Airbus (FBW and non-FBW) and a couple of other types. I didn't take your training comments personally as I've seen differences in...

Huh? IF it's an aerodynamic blunder, it's an aerodynamic blunder no matter who is flying it, saying otherwise is a bs pilot copout. Besides look at the few airlines that fly the airplane. FedEx,...
