CRJ circuit breaker reset guide

[flyingfool]

Does anyone have a copy of the CRJ circuit breaker reset guide that they can PM me.

Don't have one but since we're on the subject...

DO NOT USE THAT THING IN FLIGHT!

I knew a guy who got one shortly after they came out. He had the flaps stick around 30 on approach, ran the QRH, no joy.

He ALMOST decided to try the reset thing, but changed his mind at the last second.

Back on the ground, Mx came out and performed the reset procedure...the flaps immediately came up to zero BUT ONLY ON ONE WING

Maybe you could just call maintenance control when the need arises!

The difference between a flight school, pilot mill wonder and a real pilot is that a real pilot with real experience would know better to even think such a thought much less put it in writing.

Flyingfool, you are really living up to your name.

Just a thought follow the QRH... and thats my guess what the NTSB accident report would conclude as well.

It is an ok manual I have seen it but would not use it.

Flying for the US launch customer for the RJ, we reset CBs routinely until maintenance reset the CB for a flap fail and did $250,000.00 damage to the flaps.

I hate to think what would have happened if it had been in the air.

Follow the QRH. or:

If you want to do a reset and you are on the ground just "ReBoot".

Creative piloting...


NW 255 - MD-82 attempted to takeoff without flaps.

Aftermath

The NTSB probable cause statement is as follows: "The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the accident was the flightcrew's failure to use the taxi checklist to ensure the flaps and slats were extended for takeoff. Contributing to the accident was the absence of electrical power to the airplane takeoff warning system which thus did not warn the flightcrew that the airplane was not configured properly for takeoff. The reason for the absence of electrical power could not be determined."


The cockpit voice recorder (CVR) provided the evidence regarding the flightcrew omission of the taxi checklist. The stall warning was annunciated. Using the CVR the investigators determined that the aural takeoff warning was not annunciated. There was an electrical failure due to a circuit breaker being tripped, but post accident testing did not reveal a malfunction of the circuit breaker.

Screw that. Reset the damn circut breaker. If a fire starts, declare an emergency and presto you are a Hero.

1-800-maintenance control

By the way, your moniker is apropos

Until the NTSB gets involved, then you go from hero to goat.

 

[HarryParatestes]

Never worry about the NTSB. Worry about civil liability lawyers.

I used to think it was a good idea. Then a good friend of mine got into serious trouble when a thrust reverser came out in the air because of this kind of "system re-set" CB pulling took place.

Never pull a circuit breaker without a write up and the specific (and recorded) instructions from a qualified mechanic. They pay you to fly planes, not fix them, and the FAA isn't going to give you a pass because you wanted to be on-time.

Ahh..

So thats how it happened. Was that the one shortly after the rotor burst out of DEN?

Thanks everyone for the little talk on not pulling breakers. That was some good stuff. You all need to chill out. Who said I was going to use it. I just wanted to look at a copy of it. You're all DORKS!!! Thank god I never have to fly with any of you.

The only one i remembered used a lot on the ground was for the APU ECU, 1N12... Easy to reach, easy to fix... Especially on a hot summer day, just when you think you'll have some cool air coming from the almighty APU...

Why would you want to read a CB list????

Hey guys, does anyone know where I can find a hooker? I'm not going to use her, I just want to look at one.

Actually, no. That one was due to some sort of welding defect that bombardier/GE were already aware about and thought they'd fixed.

This happened on a flight from GRR to ORD. And the company sent out a highly unusual memo blaming the crew for pulling CB's. They lost part of the cowling, but never shut it down. Saw pics of it . . . it was a mess (a "Messa?"). You can look up the preliminary report on the NTSB . . . will be interesting to see how it develops.


And whomever started this thread . . . nobody EVER agrees about anything on the hub; yet they all seem to agree on this: Pulling CB's is a very bad idea. There might be a reason for that.

Good, You are an F/O and are not to touch ANYTHING! You can look at anything, just don't touch anything. BTW, "just wanted to look at it", PM it to me, you really are a fool if you think anyone is believing that line of krap!

I heard a couple of mx guys laughing about this. Apparently they took a copy of the reset guide and tweaked a bunch of the resets to completely screw everything up. The bad copies have made their way all around the company. You won't catch me using one of those things!
