Of course they didn't call the SOD. But they did call and ask advise "as a friend". Pathetic.

My issue is not the sudden wind gust. It is that they had more than 10 knots WITH THE EXISTING wind condition prior to the gust front. That was a blatant disregard for company sop's because of pressure to land at that destination. That is why there are sop's. They are not just guidance!!!!!

 

[GlorifiedCabbie]

Is there any truth to the rumor that the company is not co-operating with the Union safety committee on this incident?

 

[doh]

A “suitable runway” requires at least favorable winds and DH/MDA. They used that runway because they needed the DH/MDA. They ignored the winds.

Company is retraining them. FOK. Keep moving nothing to see over here

What has been the fall out for the crew from the other over runs? What about the one in Sugarland while landing with a 13-19 knot tailwind?

One of them posts here. A lot. Like maybe even directly before you.

You would think blatant disregard for tailwind limitations would at least get them an FAA careless and reckless violation which would make Kenn happy as they are never leaving FlexFlop Jet with that on their record.

 

[jetwash]

Kenn happy as they are never leaving FlexFlop Jet with that on their record.

The proper terminology is “Floppy Flexjet”

You have the Flexjet name but under the surface you have Kenn’s Flight Opts method of running a company with the good old boys.

 

[doh]

I’ve always heard it called flopsjet.

 

[Jetsetter67]

Hmmm... i heard it was one particularly douchey flexjetter and a transfer.

Both stellar examples of humanity I hear. If it's true regarding the Flexjetter's identity he's a decent stick but just a dew swiggling asshat.

Alas maybe the union "rhetoric" about the complacency dangers of Red Label (and limited crews which resulted in a similar problem at the time of the phenom incident) are now undeniable. I wonder how much money Kenn can throw at more "marketing" interviews to run customers off the scent of the BS trail.

Do you know them

 

[doh]

Do you know them

It was two Options transfers.

 

[Jetsetter67]

What is their reputation. Are they good or ****bags

 

[shanes123]

They are IRL, IGMs and FOKs so you figure out their moral integrity.
