ABX manual CAT II certification revoked

[LarryinTN]

ABX does LOTS of things on their PCs that are NOT required!

No, not really.

The hand-flown, engine-out, CAT II approach was required in order to have hand-flown, engine-out CAT II approach qualification.

The engine failure during a missed approach was required by one of our FAA guys in DTW FSDO even though it wasn't in the regs. That meant that it was required for us. That Fed has moved on so that procedure is no longer required by our Feds and they stopped doing them a few months ago.

So, Rhoid, why are you being so aggresively negative towards ABX? You sound like that UPS guy, a few months back, who took any chance he could to bash ABX. Did we bump you off a jumpseat once, or what?

It's pretty sudden when Morgenfeld gets a phone call out of the blue from the Feds prohibiting manual CAT IIs.

It wasn't out of the blue.

Rhoid is a baiter. Ignore him is my advice.

Rhoid is a baiter. Ignore him is my advice.

BUT HE HAS "FLOWN" A CRJ FTD, AND THAT MAKES HIM MUCH MORE PREPARED FOR FLYING WITH THE BIG BOYS WHEN HE GROWS UP.


PFT ASS

Now the FAA has decided that we can resume hand-flown CAT II approaches in the DC8 and DC9 while they consider our request for a permanant exemption.

One of our DTW FAA guys says that he expects a decision on that within 30 to 60 days.

Rhoid is now permanently gone, seems he didn't have enough to say...
