flops engine out inflight on 8/19

Yea why not, we have a "super" special POI that lets us do it, also we are "super" pilots

Did they have to repo it single engine to TEB? Oh yeah, after doing another revenue trip?

By the way does anyone suppose that FLOPS made the required NTSB 830 report? Things that make you go "Hmmmmmm......"

It really depends on the failure mode of the engine, but I don't believe they're required to make a report for an "ordinary" engine failure. Even if the engine grenaded due to compressor or turbine blade failure, it still doesn't meet the criteria for generating an immediate notification.

§ 830.5 Immediate notification​

(3) Failure of structural components of a turbine engine excluding compressor and turbine blades and vanes;​

(7)(iii) Sustained loss of the power or thrust produced by two or more engines​

I find it sad that I have to find out about an engine failure on one of our aircraft on a public board, and not a word about the incident from the company.

Sad...look at our present management....look at our worthless safety department. have we heard anything about the dual engine failures from the safety department? I've learned more from AIN than FLOPS. But we do have a "cookbook commitee".

ps. for those of you not at FLOPs , yes I said cookbook commitee

Is SH!T SANDWICH in the cookbook? Probably under the "Crew Meal" tab.

Amazing...

After the outstanding job the crew did in safely getting the BeechJunk on the ground, the lead pax was PO'd about being late for his meeting. Talk about misdirected priorities.

This event was finally acknowledged in a FLOP's inter-company communication yesterday 8-23-07.

I think you got some bad info. Lead pax was a woman and definitely not going to a meeting. Don't think she was pissed off.

Thanks

for the correction. Still heard that someone in the party was miffed that they were going to be late for their meeting.
