The electromechanical gust locks are WOW protected. I'm not positive about the mechanical locks, however.Is it possible to lock the gust lock (or what ever it is that comes up on the thrust levers while @ idle) in flight?
Hey all,
Watched an AE 135 taking off today from LGA with the side window totally blocked by a huge silver sun shade... Normal practice or did he forget to remove it? Seems like it would be a safety issue as side view (and a little bit of forward view) seemed to be totally blocked off by the shade.
thx, 73
That's what I thought, since that's how it is in our sims, which have mechanical locks.For the mechanical lock to be engaged on the ground or in flight the control column has to be in the full forward position. If the column is full forward in flight, you've got a bigger problem than the gust lock.
If you need get instrument current, you just throw them up and log it as hood time.
Thanks.
