Fair enough. Good luck to you.

Dude where did you work? Can I have your seat and your stripes?

Just out of curiosity... what airline did you work for? and what do you do now that you're not a pilot anymore?

I make $60 a year at my desk you and I hate it......keep flying

so, neither of them cuaght the GEAR WARNING HORN>???? what were they flying?

Well, My guess would be that if they were practicing an engine out landing, they muted the gear horn and if they were flying a light twin, they probably never needed to put the flaps down, which would have trigger the horn again, so one thing led to another and walla, you have the present situation. I can see it happening, though there is no excuse for the examiner to not have caught it. Although...now that I am thinking, where was the GUMP check on final?????
:rolleyes:

i gues it's possible and I know the applicant is executing the authority of PIC on the check-ride, but geez the examiner should have cuaght somthing like that especialy since he was the one that failed the engine on the appicant in the first place. He could have simply told the applicant to go around multi-engine or take the controls land and talk about the pink slip on the ground.

There are two types of pilots. Those who have landed gear up and those who will.

I know at least 4 individuals who have struck tips or slid in for a perfect no point landing and work full time in the aviation world. One is a 747 captain. One is a CRJ Captain. One is an A320 FO, and the other is a Challenger 604 captain.

At the end of the day it isn't the fact that you had an accident. It's the circumstances surrounding that event (no negligence), and the fact that you learned from it.

I can guarantee you that somebody that has had to use a crane to get the plane back on the ramp isn't going to belly land EVER again in their career.

I was given a conditional offer from Eagle a few months and planned on going there in May. I had a gear collapse about 2 months after the interview...left main collapsed on landing...it was found to be mechanical...I called Eagle shortly there after and they just had me submit a written statement. They haven't gotten back to me yet; its been about a week...do you think this will get me the boot???

not to sure. They probably needed he letter for the captains review board. I'm nt sure when the meet every month but it might not hurt to just give a call and ask about your status. Good Luck.
