FLOPS Phenom overrun

[brokeflyer]

So why is it when Options has an overrun, it makes the board the very same day (courtesy of an NJA pilot, no less), yet an NJA Sovereign had an overrun in PBI on Sunday and we hear not a peep? Diverted to PBI and overran into the 14 EMAS on landing, anyone know what the issue was?

Looks like the EMAS worked, so thankfully a more benign outcome, but just sayin - doesn't seem fair on the coverage here.

Because netjets pilots are just better pilots.

Well, I have heard they've gotten better on average after some of the retirements over the last couple of years

I can think of two specifically in the 680 fleet. I credit the strong FO's at AA and NJA for keeping these ass clowns from bending metal.

What about the NETJETS Phenom 300 single engine take-off attempt in KUGN back in July? Airplane was on the roll when it aborted !

What's happening to the flops pilots in that overrun ? I can probably guess if there asks kissers lots of time will pass and then it will be swept under rug.. Badge wearing union members fired!!!!

Was there an engine plug stuck in the intake?

Single engine taxi, forgot to start the other? :cartman:

It was my understanding the capt that caused the accident was not a MIGS.

Who gives a sh1t, are you trying to say that had something to do with the cause?

 

[BE40Driver]

They are both gone! So what is your point.

If being in favor of their cause labels me as a Village Idiot, put me down, I'm in!

Shanes The PIC didn't need the union. He would brag that if anything happened, management would protect him.

Then he ran to the union asking them to help him with his situation.

Hey man, it was on the news. It didn't take any deep digging. Perhaps we have better damage control who can hush something fast, I just don't know. Don't try to turn this into a "NJA pilots are awesome and FLOPS pilots suck" thread. That was never even implied.

 

[chainring]

Hopefully they had a mechanical issue since PBI has about twice as much runway as FCM.

Lets see ... the flight aware shows filed to Houston from the bahamas ...

A descent shortly after departing ... several orbits in holding near pbi on a vmc day before landing.

LiveATC audio of Palm beach approach you can hear them tell approach control that they got their wheels down.

Why would anyone tell approach they got their wheels down?

I don't know....

To avoid confusion with our new competitor?

So is the 680 plagued with the same A-side HYD issues as the 750? This would fit that scenario.
