TAILSTRIKE TROUBLE

The ATSB has released their Interim Factual Report into the EK 407 tailstrike at Melbourne Airport.


It is available HERE.


How about this, as a change to the LPC (Less Paper Cockpit) module:

(a) Crew enters Zero Fuel Weight

(b) Ramp Fuel

and the program then calculates the Takeoff Weight.

This removes the possibility of crew entering the incorrect takeoff weight.

Meanwhile, the ZFW and Fuel figure entry cells are set to reject impossible values.

18th December 2009
