- bartread 3y agoDrop the URL in here: https://translate.google.co.uk/?sl=auto&tl=en&op=websites https://translate.google.co.uk/?sl=auto&tl=en&op=websites. Russian to English translation is certainly good enough to understand the thrust of the article. It makes "cunning" use of handwaving and misdirection in this case.
- anticodon 3y ago«Аэрофлот» предупредил пилотов о риске выкатывания за пределы ВПП на самолетах с деактивированным тормозом», — говорится в сообщении, разошедшемся по Telegram-каналам. Правда, даже после внимательного прочтения этих постов выясняется, что поводов для паники нет: ближе к концу читателей информируют, что тормозов у самолетов не один, а много, на каждой стойке шасси, и часть из них вполне может быть деактивирована в соответствии с перечнем минимального исправного оборудования (MEL) «Аэрофлота». It says basically that airplane has several brake pads, so the memo says that the plane can fly for up to 10 days after seeing that some of the brake pads had worn out.
- vbezhenar 3y agoAccording to this article, using planes with some of the brakes disabled is OK and generally accepted everywhere, up to 10 days. Of course brakes will be replaced soon, but just the fact that some breaks are not functional does not mean that plane have to be moved to repair immediately. There are some plane defects which are considered acceptable for limited time use and this situation is one of them.
