..Like suing a dead man?
Re: Plane Crash Amsterdam airport 737-800Turkish Airlines - SkyAirWorld - 08-03-2009
...Yes..... Usually the family is sued on their behalf... (in extreme cases, and thats probably more just the case with finances)
...but being I had not realised that he had died, definatly more unlikely and not going to happen.

The family sued when the pilot died?
Never heard of that.
But it is normal that pilots are sued anyway with any accident.

Let me direct you here Anastasios...

And Pilot in Command (or First Officer) are not "sued anyway with any accident"
*cough* Mechanical Failure? *cough* Operator Sued instead *cough*

In your article the family is defending the pilot.
But the family is not sued.
And yes, in any serious accident the pilots are automatically sued. Then it has to be proven that they did everything right. If, after
investigation, it is clear that the accident was not caused by the pilots, then they are not guilty.
Maybe you remember the accident of a KLM 737 in 2003, that ran off the runway after a birdstrike and the nose gear was stuck.
Both pilots were being accused of: 'putting the nose gear on the ground'.
Ofcourse they were not guilty, but this is just what automatically happens after an accident.
*cough*

ok
1) I believe only 1 pilot has ever been given jail time or convicted of a felony for an accident and that was in WI a few years back, I can look up
the article in AOPA Pilot if someone is interested
2) WHY IN THE WORLD IS A "PILOT-IN-TRAINING" flying an approach. I'm sure Europe has sims such as it is in the states. Usually when FO's enter their
1st flight they're already rated.
Re: Plane Crash Amsterdam airport 737-800Turkish Airlines - Anastasios - 10-03-2009
I'm not sure if the pilot in training was flying. That was a guess.
Further more, remember the Air China that overshot the runway somewhere in asia not so long ago?
The pilots were trying to save fuel (so they would get a bonus from the airline) by nót using flaps and they landed with almost double the
landing speed.
They are both in jail now for man slaughter.

Things are getting stranger by the minute.. Everywhere in the world similar probs with the rad. alt are popping up. Dutch news are now
even reporting that our own blue swan had reported 17 problems with rad alts. the last few months...
Re: Plane Crash Amsterdam airport 737-800Turkish Airlines - Anastasios - 11-03-2009
You know what happened as well that day.
Some hours after the crash all firetrucks and emergecny vehicles returned to the airport and just a few moments later they had another
call. An emergency landing was made at A'dam airport a few hours after the crash. An Airbus had a failure of one hydraulic system.

Well regarding this altimeter problem I have something to say something:
Last week I was flying my CLS A340 flro LIRF-LTBA so when all of you have probably noticed that at atitude display automaticaly turn on
system (i dont kno his name) when the plane is at 2500ft abnove LAND not sea level so the A340 usuualy make tuch down at 21ft of the
ground acording to that system but when i was landing that day he made touch down at 33ft and i have crushed because i was -
700ft/min yes i know it is to fat but i usually pull litle back yostick at about 25ft so i landabout -150ft/min and that day i didnt panic about
vert speed becaouse i was stil high and i have crashed.
i just want to say that small instrument malfuntioning and you will crash!!!!!
