Preliminary Findings Suggest Pilot Error in Air France Crash
The pilots of an Air France jet that crashed into the Atlantic Ocean two years ago apparently became distracted with faulty airspeed indicators and failed to properly deal with other vital systems, including adjusting engine thrust, according to people familiar with preliminary findings from the plane's recorders. The final moments inside the cockpit of the twin-engine Airbus A330, these people said, indicates the pilots seemingly were confused by alarms they received from various automated… (online.wsj.com) Mais...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]

You are most welcome Nicholas,flying itself is and always will be somewhat dangerous. I have seen weather phenomenons while flying heavies that needed immediate response that only happens with the experience to know the radar is a tool at best with many shortcomings.
Thank you for the weather explanation, Allen.
Thanks Ralph, I guess we flew when pilots that knew how to fly were in the cockpit and the others were washed out. Training was developed by shared experience,stalls,spins,gut calls etc. Maybe we could implement the past training with the new training to create better cockpit decisions instead of discipline. I have to believe a good old gut call (when your hair stands up on your neck because experience tells you this just does not feel right) could have saved this flight.
