Too soon to say doors? Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

Get a 97-2000 jeep wrangler. Fits the three kids in the back as long as they are ok with squishing. Its what we did. :) Cheers TJ Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

I was going to say that there is a beautiful 10 for sale at LSXT that just hit the market, but you beat me to it! Good luck with the sale! TJ Sent from my SM-N970U using Tapatalk

I don’t think there is anything about it in the report as the position of the switches may not be monitored by the DFDR. The statement they make is accurate. Mcas commanded AND at 5:40:42 but the stabilizer did not move. That tells me the cutout switches were cutout (the report also makes that...

I think you actually wrote it in your reply. I believe a manual electric trim input can only be made if the electric trim switch is operational. The way I read it is that the copilot could not manually trim up. They were over speeding the aircraft so I think he’d have to fight that wheel to...

We shouldn’t have to speculate about what they did. The FDR tells us that. The CVR may give us some insight into what they were thinking and the why behind what they did. It’s increasingly suspect that we haven’t received that data. And the FAA response to the initial report makes me think...

Flaps up at 450 agl - seems like an odd choice, no? TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Could someone more familiar with 737 operations describe if pulling flaps out at 450agl is normal flight operations? Especially at a high altitude airport? I thought it was flaps five takeoff with flaps 1 for the low speed part of the climb until your cleared to higher. Taken from: The final...

I don’t think there is anything in this article that convinced me its any closer to knowing whose at fault. Still sounds like a lot of speculation. Let’s see the FDR data.... Let’s hear what happened in the cockpit. Let’s see the maintenance records of this airframe. Still a lot left to...

That single event changed my whole outlook on emergencies and non-normals. I either was going to give up flying or learn how to handle the situations as they arose. I decided to learn- and in that learning adopted a number of ways to train to combat that very reaction. My favorite is a timer...

I still remember VIVIDLY the first time my instructor turned the fuel shut off valve to closed without my knowledge - this happened in 1995 and I can still tell you vivid details about it all. I’d definitely relate to that as a “significant emotional event!” And I did nothing, I literally...

I thought the number of a320neos flying was zero. I thought none had yet been delivered, but was hoping someone else more knowledgeable could confirm. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thoughts on this article? https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/23/business/boeing-737-max-crash.html How many a320neos are flying? Is it really that close of a race between Boeing and Airbus? TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was talking about this line where you said the above. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do you have links to the ATC communication? TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not that I’ve seen. But eyewitness accounts rarely paint an accurate picture. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have you seen the data linking them? What are your thoughts? How do you draw that conclusion? When I look at it, There is really only one oscillation that looks like LionAir. It then doesn’t look anything like LionAir to me. It almost looks like ET caught the first downward trend of the...

Right. When I said that I was referring to LionAir. Not this crash. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agreed- that’s why they are saying it’s two issues. An issue with mcas that we know about. And another issue with the autopilot that we don’t yet know about. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. Yeah I just read the ASRS report as a drop in climb rate of 3000ish to 1200-1500 fpm. Still climbing but obviously headed into a situation where it would be losing altitude without intervention. I thought that was actually the difference between DONT SINK and PULL UP. Don’t sink meant...
