ATC Handling of Low-Fuel American Flight
"Jim Carter" wrote in message t... I believe the closest would have been Love based on the point at which he mentioned the fuel problem. This has already been addressed in this thread so I suspect you already knew that Matt. How does the distance to DFW compare to the distance to DAL from that point? I'm not condoning what ATC did or how they responded, but like the UK pilot that continued on single-engine across the pond I wonder why AA continued on past a suitable airport once they knew they had a problem. That's all I'm questioning. He continued on with three engines, not one. |

Tim writes: What did you get on the FAA (written) knowledge test? How was your instrument checkride? I haven't taken the test, nor have I taken any checkrides. What's that you say? Didn't take either of them? Right. Of course, even people who do well on them had not taken them before they took them. So, then, how can you make a claim that you know more about real IFR flying than others posting to this newsgroup? How do you demonstrate knowledge (or lack of it in your case) to support your claim? |

I've made no such claim, but I'm sure there are people on this group who know less about IFR than I do. How do you demonstrate knowledge (or lack of it in your case) to support your claim? I occasionally answer questions, when I have the answers. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
