it blew tires on landing? GSP is a loooooong runway! 11,000 ft. Maybe the smoke impacted the anti-skid?

It was super-over-loaded......

General Lee forgot to put the weight of his ego in the ACARS.... Landed about 15K over max...

-Don't let that happen again, Gen! We will demote your sorry butt to a cargo plane flying rubber dog poops out of Hong Kong.

Maybe the Delta pilots were putting their hats on at 80kts for the appearence during deplaning, then realized they were running out of runway.....



just saying....

No antiskid when you are down to emergency power. No autospoilers either. Also, no trim which means you can't use landing flaps. Know something about the airplane involved before you speculate.

what is landing flaps for an 80?

Good post, whenever people start pointing fingers they are always a little wrong and usually a lot wrong.

Yeah, and you have a clue ... not.

28 or 40. On emer pwr you have to land flaps 15 because you have no trim.

From what I hear the crew did a great job.

I got hired telling the interviewer that I plan my trips by looking at the breaks/sits and knowing the good places to eat....


Now If I could just lose 15 pounds!

YEEEEHAAAAA!

Those Delta guys are GOOD!


Looks like taking it into the dirt was a good idea....

Nice to know there was CFR at that kind of airport!

Assuming they ran the smoke checklist that is where they would be.

Where did you get the AN-2 time? I'm jealous.

 

[CFI2766]

Speculation:

Anyone else think that the feds will want to have a close look at the wiring on that particular MD?

Also, if there was an inspection that was required on that plane, for wiring, last summer that wasn't completed, there will be an inquisition.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

Second 88 smoke issue in the last six weeks!

 

[PeanuckleCRJ]

I landed behind the other one in atl.... didn't hear anything else about it.


Translated for the regional forum: "Anyone got the deets????"

 

[Rez O. Lewshun]

I guess that is a descretion call.... or not....???

Budapest.... off a grass strip..... cool times it was...

Determine how much time you have to descend. Do you pop the boards and drop the gear, or is flight idle good enough?

There's that Delta holier-than-thou attitude we all know and love...

Yeah, imagine bringing pertinent system knowledge into the discussion. The nerve of that guy.
