    Monarch have announced officially that they are going to upgrade a number of A300-600 aircraft with Monarch Premium this winter, to meet demand for the every more popular service. Offering 34″ seat pitch, wider seats, in flight entertainment and upgraded meals, along with a private cabin is just the tip of the ice berg for Monarch.

    Don’t beleive everything you read in that report.

    The black boxes for this aircraft where in the hands of airbus/air france for 2 weeks before being handed over to the proper authorities something that should not have been allowed. The boxes are suppose to be taken away by investigators immediately. The Investigation then found that the data the retrieved did not match the fight profile of accident aicraft. Inexplicably, the investigation ignored this basic evidence of tampering and reported what beistrich linked to above.

    I wonder what airbus/air france did to the data :rolleyes: Oh, and they handed over a Data recorder that did not match the one assigned to the aircraft that crashed.

    Link to third party investigation

    aviation Safety is the more thrustfull score

    The newly delivered A.320 was to perform for Air Charter a series of flights on behalf of the Mulhouse Flying Club. The crew were a.o. to overfly Mulhouse-Habsheim airport two times (first at low speed, gear down at 100 feet and the other at high speed in clean configuration) as part of an airshow. The aircraft took off from Basle-Mulhouse at 14:41 and climbed to 1000 feet agl. The crew started the descent three minutes later and Habsheim was in sight at 450 feet agl. The first officer informed the captain that the aircraft was reaching 100 feet at 14:45:14. The descent continued to 50 feet 8 seconds later and further to 30-35 feet. Go-around power was added at 14:45:35). The A.320 continued and touched trees at the end of the runway at 14:45:40 with a 14deg pitch attitude and engine speed being 83% N1. The plane sank slowly into the forest and a fire broke out. PROBABLE CAUSES: “The Commission believes that the accident resulted from the combination of the following conditions: 1) very low flyover height, lower than surrounding obstacles; 2) speed very slow and reducing to reach maximum possible angle of attack; 3) engine speed at flight idle; 4) late application of go-around power. This combination led to impact of the aircraft with the trees. The Commission believes that if the descent below 100 feet was not deliberate, it may have resulted from failure to take proper account of the visual and aural information intended to give the height of the aircraft.”

    [QUOTE=Matthew Murray]The russian AN-124/225 are extreme heavyweight, but they are less efficent in temrs of fuel, but more than make up the fuel-burn in terms of time. Those aircraft are also capable of landing on grass and such like and such, very vertistile.

    Yeah the An-124/225 are cheap. You borrow them for 1 or 2 flights and they can carry everthing. Nice planes

    While toying with the idea of modifying the 747-400 to carry more passengers, Boeing said that its own projections indicate that there is no market for superjumbos, and that increasing demand for point-to-point service would lead airlines to instead seek smaller, faster aircraft.
