G-IV overrun CYQX

[Gulfstream 200]

...we'd still be stuck @ EHAM, most likely due to yet another FCS test fail.

Nothing a few reboots and a browse through the PAL/FGDA wont fix! or maybe Load 12.

BTW - I'd kill to be on the Gallatin right now also...

The Madison's been smokin' lately, especially down in the Bear Trap. The Gallatin's always pretty good. Even when it's bad...it's still pretty good.

Reaching for the PAL is a conditioned response for us now, the three things we do now when the CAS lights up are:

1. Reach for the PAL
2. Take a pic with our phone of the Status Page to send to our
mechanic and Tim Noble.
3. Figure out how many days out trip is going to be extended if the
universal solution "Reinitialize" doesn't clear things up. PFM, man.

I'm out east man...we are into Steelhead right now but I do love a Montana trip, if I would ever get another....

Knock on wood (or a few MAU's/Selmons/CMCs etc..) but we have had a pretty trouble free plane so far.

Enjoy the fish!

22 seat GIV. Now thats gotta be comfy. Big windows and all.

The airplane is certified to a max of 22 occupants. I guarantee the airplane didn't have 22 seats. Typical media ignorance when it comes to reporting aviation incidents.

As for the rest, well.....

GIV brakes and tires are marginal. I'm just sayin'...

That's funny...

You should know, you've flown the others. I just didn't like how it stopped. YMMV.

But I thought Gulfstreams, with their massive brakes & thrust reversers, didn't go off wet/contaminated runways...

Maybe that dirt bag Craig Frost was flying it..........he took one off in Van Nuys...maybe he did a contract trip on this one......lol

Hell yeah, pull it out of the mud and continue. Even after "certain equipment failing".

My thoughts exactly..... especially being operated as a Part 135 aircraft.

Rumor has it the operator "Crystal Air/VNY" and the crew are not speaking about the "occurance"......
