They had an IL 76 and a few 727’s but more than half of their fleet has been burnt out, I think they only have one 727 left which will probably go to the government. They’ll need a completely new airline.
Are pilots obligated nowadays to always use autoland? They are at Singapore Airlines.

Explain! what are you already? what are a lot of others? :confused:
I agree, but understand these things are also for a small part thanks to me (like losing members). Well I don’t know actually cuz most people don’t really let me know. But I find it difficult to express my opinions properly in English. I’ll put an extra effort into that, and if I’m irritating for anyone, let me know.

Maybe you can find an annual report on their website? It’s listed in that document.
How’s MyTravelLite doing? Did they buy new aircraft ore lease more to sart it, or were there aircraft transferred from MyTravel?

Unless you drink too much today and get an accident:D!
Happy birthday!
Was this a real test or a movie simulation? As i predicted, tha aircraft goes up after the loss of weight:) what sense does it make to drop the water at such a high height? And the water has to be heated, because if you let it turn into ice the tanks will break.
The aircraft skidded off the end of the runway during landing. The aircraft touched down with sink rate low enough that the onboard flight computers did not consider it to be “landing,” which inhibited thrust reverse and brake application for nine seconds.
Typical a320-100 error.
What surprises me is that some a320 accidents happen by a simple crash into the ground. Why doesn’t the FBW have a setting so that the computers give full thrust if stall is coming close, or if the ground is coming too close? It’s simple?!

Did Airbus pay any aircraft back that crashed because of errors in the computers?
The 747-400 will autoland the same way, can’t be that the 747-400’s autoland system is not as good. It’s amazing how good an autpilot can put an aircraft on the ground, even in crosswind conditions.
Does someone know if the APR setting is also used for crosswind conditions?
I remember the story of the A320-100 series (!!!) that landed so softly in warsaw so that the computers didn’t feel it. The thrust reverse activation and spoiler deplyment was delayed by 8 seconds or so and the aircraft overran the runway. It burned out.
Hmm, isn’t the runway at oxford a bit short, a fokker 50 is even difficult with its 1100 meters?
What TU134 type was it?
THIS IS RYANAIR! If the routes are not profitable, they don’t operate it! By the way, Don’t you know Charleroi wwas Ryanair’s first hub outside Ireland and the UK? If not, check their website and see to which destinations they fly from Charleroi.
Hand87_5 you have a private message.
At least you ever saw concorde, I only saw the tail of it. I wanted to come to the UK for the tour in Octobere, but I didn’t have the money, and BA didn’t organize anything at all, It just came and I didn’t really wanted to walk to get to a place where I could see it.

But does the camera take a picture automatically or so if the time is right?
