toasted an engine from being in toga too long?
how exactly is that possible? there isnt a limitation on it. 2 mins at 963 degrees and 5 at 947 is the only TOGA limit that would burn one up, i don't think ive ever seen them that high, certainly not if you are FLEXing. i also see the the limit at 5 mins for toga...no idea how that gets missed (its on the after t/o checks on the 200 and 7-900)
i can see toasting a 200 because you forget there is no fadec and firewall it on a go around or something.
the hard landings....thats totally believable. I see FO's continuously forget to stop the decent before landing...that falls on the training department.
I'm all for separating the 200/7-900 on a bid. If I never fly a 200 again itll be too soon. They fly like crap.
