So what's the story on this latest 400 flameout?

[Ultra Grump]

It was supposed to have been yesterday, on the east coast somewhere. They were able to relight and land at ORF? Was this Flops again?

Grump: How did you hear about this? More information please. Was it options or NJets or who? I know that is what you are asking, but how do you know it happened?

It was not a NJA airplane. It was listed as a 400A, not a 400XP. Not that there is much difference between the two.

More info?

Looking for a little information on the latest flame out. Because of liability issues the real truth rarely gets out to the masses.

Kudos to the pilots that got it on the ground safely.

How many failures in the last few years??? If it were an airliner they would all be grounded until we found the cause and fix. I guess we'll keep flying them till someone gets hurt!

If you happen to be flying one of these rice burners, I recommend that you let your company and family know about your concerns.

Far, far too many.

Because if they know they aren't saying. There is a issue here and something needs to be done. If this plane were a airliner the fleet would be grounded by now. Plane made me nervous when I flew it. The good news is that they got a relight on it, thank god.
