A330 rough air speed penetration

Scott Fri, 12 Jun The accident A, if it reverted to direct law, would lose most all? Leading edges of the winds and engine nacelles were deformed as well. The derivation of V RA , therefore, becomes quite a bit more complicated. I just have one small comment about what you write in the paragraph Hail: Flying the airplane at its stall speed in rough air, would satisfy 14 CFR 25, of course, but would hardly be advisable.

Not many are even willing to talk about this. If the plane was turning to get out of the storm, particularly while fighting a strong updraft, I can imagine that it would have put undue stress on the dipped wing and vertical stabilizer, and ripped them off. Through whatever the multitude of factors will be, I do not believe they attained an effective understanding of the weather threat they faced, beginning in pre-flight assessment of the route to be flown, continuing through the end with the use of the weather radar. Fisher climbed to 14, feet looking for smoother air. Coffin Corner is well named and best avoided by sensible margins. I was not thinking of sprites or blue jets, but instead, an explosion and falling, burning debris.

Hi Tim, Our satellite meteorology section is collaborating with NCAR on convective diagnosis for aviation safety issues and have produced several products that may assist your excellent reconstruction efforts. I will be working this new information into the article in the days ahead. During harsh economic times, when jobs are at risk, it's understandable that pilots are going to kick in and assist by making operations more economical. The lighter pieces of the plane, and about 50 bodies, were found floating. If you fly your airplane with a degree of finesse you will never need a V-g diagram, to be sure.

The aircraft radome was crushed-in around the radar. The question I would ask be considered is, what might have happened that would normally not be expected to happen, in order to bring about the error messages that were transmitted? I can't imagine any circumstances where the plane would have been visible to a northbound flight under the circumstances you have reconstructed. That should make it clear whether or not there was any generic or in the case of the AF captain specific proclivity for "riding the tiger" in any misguided attempt to achieve greater economies. CB's to 70, plus feet and in lines sometimes miles long. All souls on board were able to evacuate without casualties.
