Strmoglavilo letalo z nogometaši

Na Airliners.net forumu so izračunali, da bi, če bi direktno in takoj pristal na destinaciji brez vsakega čakanja, imel še za ca. 10 min. goriva rezerve, kar je seveda pod vsemi predpisanimi minimumi. S takšnim idealnim scenarijem je očitno računal, a se ni izšlo. Namreč moral je 15 minut krožiti in čakati na pristanek in to ga je očitno neslo. Še vedno bi se izšlo, če bi takoj ob približevanju prijavil "fuel emergency" in bi mu dali prednost, vendar bi ga v tem primeru čakala kazen zaradi letenja s premajhno količino goriva in je pač hotel to dejstvo zamolčati. Uštel se je v svojih kalkulacijah oziroma bolje rečeno, hazardiral je. Vprašanje je samo, koliko je to stalna praksa v tistih krajih ali morda še kje drugje.

#1 SID: No SID (response by dispatcher= Please ma'am, go ahead and fill it in yourself)

#2 Alternate: "I pointed out several times that an additional alternate was needed other than SKBO" (response by dispatcher=Leave it like that, that's what my Captain said so leave it like that ma'am)

#3 Range: ETE is the same as the fuel endurance. Conversation as follows:

Dispatcher: That's what it is, that's what they told me and that's what the Captain said.

Agent: That's incorrect, check into it and correct the flight plan.

Dispatcher: That's what it is ma'am. Those are the numbers they've given me for the flight plan.

Agent: But the ETE and the range are the same, you guys made a mistake and don't want to correct it.

Dispatcher: No ma'am, that range is what they've given me, we have enough.

Agent: No it isn't, because it's the same as the estimated time en route.

Dispatcher: Yes, this is how I'm showing it. We'll do it [the flight] in less time, don't worry about it, this is it. Take it easy, it's all good, leave it as it is.

Agent: No further argument following the stubornness displayed by the flight dispatcher.


#4 Flight dispatcher name: Name missing, only signature shown.

Further comments by the agent:
-Following these and other observations, the dispatcher left. I told him if any revisions were made to the flight plan, in particular 2 of the remarks (alternate and fuel endurance), to bring a revised flight plan when he returned to pick up the weather folder and NOTAM info.
-He returned about 30 minutes later to pick up all the flight information and pointed out that there were no changes made to the flight plan.
-To this reply, I made my displeasure known and told him that too frequently flight dispatchers do not take our comments seriously.

Ja, v Kanadi, ko so ravno prehajali na metrični sistem: Gimli Glider . Ampak se je čudežno srečno končalo, saj so uspeli "jadrati" in pristati na opuščenem letališču. Uspelo pa je samo zato, ker je pilot bil bivši vojaški pilot in je npr. za hitro spuščanje na pravo višino uporabil manevre, ki jih kakšno potniško latalo še videlo ni. Imeli so ogromno srečo.
