Re: Ethiopian Airlines 737MAX crashes enroute to Nairobi

I have a simple question...
When you have AP disabled, A/T disabled, auto trim disabled and aware of your surroundings.... how hard is it to hand fly the B38M?
Also, how much difference than a likewise NG variant? eg; climbing, leveling off, landing AoA and speed etc.
Thanks

Re: Ethiopian Airlines 737MAX crashes enroute to Nairobi

Any idea why carriers in the UK and China are still flying the B38M in/out/within their nations, despite national body groundings?
Also, I'm surprised Ethiopia Airlines is using another B38M as I speak.

RE: Kolavia A321 Crashes In Sinai / Egypt - Part 3

So it is beginning to look like the structural failure was from the craft itself and/or from internal forces.
Whatever happened, it must of been quick and affected the cockpit, because an aft separation/decompression would still have allowed the pilots to still use the radios/transponders etc?

Jump to post

RE: Kolavia A321 Crashes In Sinai / Egypt - Part 2

Looking at the scene and coupled with the fact the pilot was having radio issues etc, could an electrical fire cause a sudden loss of controls, thus putting the craft in an irrecoverable stall/pancake dive?

I'd rather have the lock off the doors, than have them there.
