Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

In this case, I agree with you that he went overboard to smear ALPA. There are plenty of knocks on ALPA. That's not one of them.

Would you, in turn, agree that Karnak's response was quite arrogant?

When you look at this from the perspective of how long it has been available to pilots in Cesssna 172s and our passenger, the fact that ALPA gave no effort to accomplish this very simple task to improve safety. Prevent injuries and/or fatalities.

That is a big failure, IMO.

I was flying the 747-400 from Osaka to Honolulu at night flight level 350. Topped a thunderstorm. UAL flew right into it at flight level 310, killing one passenger and injuring many. In my opinion, having access to this technology would prevent these types of incidents where it is available.

If this was your child who died, would you have wished the pilots had access to the data that is so easily available? Assuming internet access.

I'm not sure what the Android interface is like, but I'd imagine it's similar to my iOS app. There is an option to automatically upload all your photos each time you launch the app. Very quick and simple. Your photos are easily accessed from any web-enabled device. Once they're uploaded you may delete them from your device and they remain in the cloud.

Thanks to both of you.

I'll go look for it at the 'google store' and let you know how it turns out.

And if one engine quits, the FADECs automatically shut down the other engine... automatically. That's the dirty secret about the Miracle on Hudson, only one engine shut down after it hit birds (if it hit any at all, more than likely it was just another Airbus computer failure) but the other is programmed to automatically join it.

All true. It won't let you go around and won't let you land unless you ask it.

Yes, I agree, the Ruthless Rye is also very good. It's a little harder to find in my local grocery store though, they don't seem to stock it on a regular basis like they do the Torpedo.

I was at the ABC Liquor store yesterday looking for something of authentic Irish heritage, like myself.

Did you know Guinness and Harp is now being brewed in....Nova Scotia! Read the back of the can!

So I passed over those, but then I spotted a reddish brown can of Guinness Red Harvest Stout, and it is still brewed in Dublin (according to the details on the back of the can) so I picked up a 4 pack of that, I'm saving it for Monday, going to try making some Black and Tans with that and the Smithwicks I also picked up.

Ruthless Rye is a seasonal release by Sierra Nevada and is usually only available during the first few months of the year. It's on that you have to get while the getting is good. Much like Hoptimum, Hopslam, Bigfoot, etc.
