No, I don't have it anymore.

So, get out the manuals and start learning. It will be fun :-)

Holy crap batman (I mean Fred). You could have sold that data !!! Thanks for teasing me.

No, doing it for me. We all know what the airline procedures are (or supposed to be).

Roger that. I've seen guys with elaborate (but not 390 breakers, like Mr. Flintstone) laminated lists in their SOP or Jepps. I never bother to copy any of that data then, but it's possible that I may be in a spot without ACARS or radio to company, or perhaps even a hostile spot that I want to get out of ;-)

Always have a plan B.

Well, that one is lost, but I did make some serious coin selling a W&B excel spreadsheet that went on to become the basis for an ACARS W&B system.

Sorry TW, I can't help you much beyond 2F5 and 4A1. However, if it pleases Allah, I can try to obtain the launch codes of the Comair air-to-air missiles for you

Why, yes brother, Allah would be most pleased. But I was hoping to get the launch codes for that most glorious airline, PanAm. We've heard that they are a really big deal.

Allah Akbar

I think I still have your database file Freddy - but I believe it was designed to run on a now defunct database program called tinybites or something. It was a very handy resource.

The only reset I've "heard of doing" was the spoileron fault one. One SECU behind each pilot seat, then the "4 on the floor" on the FO's side. Every once in a while you get the old seatbelt-induced breaker trip which gets reset w/o so much as a blink.

There must be some really smart guy that can decode that bad boy.

I did write a W&B program in Excel for my Baron. Graphs and everything!!! Worked great.
