Someone mailed me the following incident the other day. I suspect it's
a satirical work, not factual - I mean, it can't happen real-time like this ![]() what was mailed: NASA ASRS Incident #294800, Atlanta, GA (ATL): ------------------------------------ Crew: Two-man crew, Captain (CAPT) and First Officer (FO); report submitted by FO Aircraft: MDT (Medium Transport, 30,001 - 60,000 lbs); large turboprop Flight Conditions: IMC; apparent ceiling 200 ft ILS Approach Min: 200 ft ceiling and 3/8 mi visibility CAPT was PF (pilot flying). On Approach (APCH) into ATL, the aircraft was stabilized one mile outside Final Approach Fix (FAF) at 2,700 ft MSL. Aircraft flew through the Localizer (LOC), overcompensated and flew through the LOC again at the Marker. Once the Marker light illuminated the Gear Down/Landing Checklist, to the line, was called. FO proceeded with the Landing Checklist and called out the major deviations. * FO: several "wild excursions" ensued. * At 400 ft AGL, FO stated: "We were full-scale Right of LOC and on Glide Slope (GS)." * At a point above 200 ft AGL, FO called Go-Around (GAR). * At 200 ft AGL, FO: "We broke out well Right of the Runway (RWY) and adjacent to the Touchdown Zone (TDZ). * The CAPT called for GAR; FO pushed up the Power. * CAPT called: "No, I got the RWY made." Landing (LNDG) was made after "several wild banks and ensuing jest by the Tower (TWR)." FO self-evaluation: * "I should have been more assertive as an FO"; and * I never should have allowed the APCH to pass the first deviation after missing the LOC." Ramapriya |
