Because I'm working on the thread about the Mesa FO who went to the bathroom yesterday. Heard it stunk.Why don't you start one?
One issue at a time here, pal!

Floater? Sinker?
ok crew screwed up blah blah blah, but was she HOT?
The Emergency Depress is electrically driven, pneumatically actuated- No vacuum of the 10th stage manifold ventury pump- it won't work. the valves are closed at the gate and it takes vacuum to open them up. You have to open the PASSENGER BOARDING DOOR very slowly to release the pressure through the small flap that opens on the first detent of the boarding handle.
not when its at the gate, no APU and external air attached...you can go back to sleep now.If all of the doors were closed, wouldn't you have the APU operating? If the APU's running with the LCV open, then you can open the EMER DEPRESS even on a -200.
An ASA F/A...thru the service door? That's a pretty hefty object to squeeze thru a small door. The diff must've been pretty high I reckon.
Go figger.
Wrong. Go back to school MELIT.
If it was a -700, the EMER DEPRESS would work because the single (1) outflow valve is electrically driven and reqires no vacuum pressure. The -200 requires 10th stage bleed air to drive the jet pump. You wouldn't have that with a low pressure air cart.
(10) In case of an emergency, the emergency depressurization switch, EMER
DEPRESS on the CABIN PRESS panel, is pushed to depressurize the aircraft.
When the switch is pushed, a command signal is sent to the cabin pressure
controllers. This puts CPCs in the dump mode and drives the torque motors on the
valves to open the valves. This drive signal is also available through passive
circuitry in the controller even if both controllers have failed. The cabin shall
depressurize to the limit control setting of 14 250±750 feet if the aircraft is above 15
000 feet. If the aircraft is below 15 000 feet, the cabin shall depressurize to ambient pressure amm 21-30-00
Not to turn this into a systems class, but if you couldn't comunicate with the ground crew (because they are loading bags you didn't calculate for, and don't have a working headset anyway), what is there to do except open the door flap on the passenger boarding door? If you turn the packs off it won't help, or will it?
