Plane crash At Reagan National

[Rio Precision Gunworks]

This is pretty entertaining.

Pilots yelling at non pilots about not posting without experience, knowledge, certs…..etc. Which obviously makes sense.

However, many of these pilots are also all over the threads about LE and why they are doing the job wrong……

Mag north is moving...TCA? It has been a bit, eh?

It certainly has been a bit. Haha

You’d be surprised at the number of airline pilots that were former LE.

And I could swear DCA had a River 18 VFR approach…but now it’s 19? Basically fly down the river and hang a right. But DC was under a TCA upside down wedding cake at the time and you could fly under it. I’ve been given to understand that they don’t call them TCA’s anymore and in DC (and elsewhere) it goes to the ground. True?

And this is all quite possibly just my creaking delusional memory.

There is a river visual to 19, but most of us shoot it via RNP now and let the autopilot do the yanking and banking.

We don’t get qualified immunity. We don’t get to keep our pension. When we fuck up and our passengers and crews get injured or die due to our actions, we’re held accountable.

Not me. Ever. But there is a very basic difference. Many people have at least a basic understanding of the law...some more than others. It is unusual for a non pilot (or ATC) to have any idea at all about FAA regs, procedures, etc. Few have ever even seen a sectional, approach plate, etc.

 

[rjacobs]

a sectional

A what?

 

[jetjock07]

A what?

You mean Sun Shade

Flying the world before EFB's with containers full of Jepp's, yeah, good times.

Dammit, always get those mixed up.

Now I know why they don't let pilots have guns.
