Thank you! I should have checked. Then he may have overshoot going for the correct runway. Thankfully both pilots will be able to testify.

Looking at the youtube video of the radar with the radio sound that someone posted below, the Cirrus is cleared to runway 17R but he turns to runway 17L. There are 3 possibilities : 1- he mistakes one runway for the other visually, 2- he w

Genuine question, if old-growth forest do not work as carbon sinks, how all the petroleum we are extracting comes from? Is all from ancient marine environments?

Yes it’s the PTU. If the noise is in the parking with engines stopped it maybe the yellow electric pump, used to open and close the cargo doors.

Also because I don’t see Boeing exiting the medium size jetline market, it would be like cutting an arm and a leg of the company. I see it as a mea culpa, as they recognize the screw up and try to make it from “0”. Not really 0 but if they

I bet they will stop building the 737 max and start building the 737”new model that is the max with some changes that can be retrofitted”. Like a larger stabilizer, longer frame, or maybe something easier. But something that lets them say i

Honest question, why are Universities becoming so expensive? Is because these credits are available? Was estudying a degree cheaper before the credits?

I consider myself addicted to sugar, the good part is that only takes about 3 days of craving to be free of them. After that it's much much easier to keep away from it.

It's not only limited manuverability, is the time window to see something that small and react at that speed. In an airliner at 180kts is like 5-7 seconds, you see a bird, confirm that is in a collision path and you correct you traject

I'm sure you've already tried this, but here go my two cents about back pain. My job is also sitting for 12 hours a day (although much better regulated and not as damaging as yours). Try stretching your psoas, look for gymnastics,

Mexico main cargo are avocados for Europe, Bogota fruis and flowers too. There isn't enough cargo offer for the demand that exists now a days. We are leaving cargo behind every single flight between these airports and Madrid.

Also four engines are a must if you operate long haul from hot and high airports like Mexico, Bogota or Quito. Due to engine failure performance requirements a twin engine needs to cut back almost half the traffic load(cargo and passangers)

True, I didn't remember the telemetry system. We have no information about it, as far as I know it could be using the same satcom uplink, as it only sends limited error codes, not a complete status of the plane. Current systems can not
