Yes way back in the 70s, there was an eastern airlines flight heading to Miami and I think there was a problem with the light that indicates whether the landing gear was down or not. Someone disengaged the autopilot by accident and everyone was so distracted that the plane crashed into the Everglades.

Great channel! Just discovered it recently and have enjoyed watching all your podcasts over the last couple of weeks. As you are discussing failures now i thought it would be nice if you could discuss the use of a risk management model (ANC, asses, action, manage, re-asses). You explained nicely how to identify and deal with a failure so it would be nice to see how the crew proceed with the flight once the failure has been dealt with. For example, company needs vs. crew needs vs. passenger needs, maintenance bases, aircraft serviceability and deciding whether to divert to a suitable alternate or press on to your destination.

Dear Mentour, first and foremost, thank you ever so much for your podcasts and for guiding me through my first airline job. Believe it or not, you have been a role model throughout this process - it hasn't been easy I can tell you! Now to the question: I'm currently undergoing initial type rating on the B733, and there is a memory item that I am having troubles identifying: Engine Fire v.s Engine Tailpipe Fire. According to the FCTM and QRH, it specifies that the Engine Tailpipe Fire is caused by flooding of the combustion chamber and that you won't receive a Fire Warn indication. It also says that the engine fire extinguishing agent will not be effective, which in turn directs you to cutoff the engine selectors and motor the engine instead. Why am I concerned? Mainly because I don't know how I would recognize the fire if I don't get any Fire Warn indication, and if the tower or ground personnel (skill test inspector in this case) alert me of the fire, I'm worried I would execute the Engine Fire memory item instead, which as you know would not help and would probably be disastrous in a real situation. Do you have any suggestions on how to differentiate the recognition of these failures? I hope this question won't take too much of your time and I thank you once again for your guidance.
@airborn867 жыл бұрын
Actually I just realized that the engine fire switches will not illuminate, maybe this is the main indicator? If it isn't too much too ask, would you consider making a podcast about the different engine fires vs engine failures/surges/damages and how to recognize the differences? May sound obvious, but many of these procedures are similar, considering also the high pressure environment in the sim. Tack så mycket!

The information you provide is fantastic. With aircraft failure it is often the smallest thing that causes disaster. My concern is how aircraft are pushed to be constantly in the air. In a few weeks I'm travelling from London to Australia. The aircraft has a two hour turn around before heading back to London, then about six hours before departing for Australia again. Doesn't this put a huge amount of stress on the aircrafts structure and be the cause of stress fractures that eventually and suddenly have catastrophic consequences.

Hi there, really appreciate the insight derived from your channel especially the technical topics you've covered so far. I don't suppose down the line (checklist pun intended) you could possibly do a short podcast highlighting the importance of decent management? I.e. Using different vertical modes accurately in hypothetical scenarios e.g ATC leaving you too high or too low or the profile is not according to planned etc? That would be much appreciated my end mate.
G-reat! :) So, how do you deal with "air cond (zone temperature)" master caution warning? (while on the ground) I still did not found any logical solution including PMDG's 737 manuals (which are really detailed). When it appears (sometimes it does, sometimes it does not, under the same circumstances), when the plane is airborne, it simply disappears. I can fly with it in the sim, but I am quite curious to deeper understand this issue. Thanks :)

hey, why is the master caution button on a 737 always twisted for a few degrees clockwise? It never aligns up with the fire warning button in a straight line. When first I noticed this, I thought someone must have done a sloppy service or something, but even the PMDG 737 in FSX has this button slightly rotated.

I have two questions: In what instance(s) are you trained to abort a take-off after V1? Also, I realise that Boeing and Airbus have two very different approaches when it comes to the A/P and caution systems. Boeing tends to trust the pilots more; Airbus gives more control to the A/P. What is your opinion on this; who do you think is right? I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos, and you're, by far, the most interesting channel on KZbin (in my opinion), as I am considering becoming a pilot.

I've noticed, as a passenger, that reverse thrust is rarely used these days. When I was flying (as a passenger) back in the 70s, 80s, and 90s, reverse thrust was used to stop the aircraft upon landing. Nowadays they don't seem to, or if they do I haven't noticed. Is that because planes have better brakes these days, or another reason? I once experienced an A380 using reverse thrust at LHR but that was the exception rather than the rule.

There wasn't any way to put out the fire since it was in the attic of the cockpit.
