DOVER C5 Crash
 

Does anyone have a link to the animation made about last years C5 crash just short of the field into Dover? I guess it's a good CRM lesson.

Thanks-
link on APC was disabled.

Your worked.

Can someone bring me up to spend on this animation?

BlueBravo....what do you want to know?

for some reason i cant remember this crash.

Was this real or an actual sim?

I think the number 2 engine was gone, but the pilot pulled back the number 3 lever so it was as if they only had 2 engine.

FDR animation, a news story, and the investigation boards findings here

Initially it appears they shut down #2 due to a problem with the #2 thrust reverser. If you watch the N1 indications and the throttle positions (graphs at the right) you cans see that as they turn final, they are adancing the #2 throttle (with 1 and 4) rather than #3. It appears they caused the ac to be two engine vice three. Also, they did not retract landing gear at any point (though I have no idea how much drag that would add to an ac that big).

how many people were in that cockpit?
were they in IMC? cause he blew right threw the localizer
was the GPWS going off it sounded like?
i dont know about other people but if im in IMC and the GPWS goes off im give full power and go missed right away
