BUR-LAS Scenic Route. WTF???
Any NK'ers have any insight on WTF is going on here? Flights on both sides operated normally.
https://flightaware.com/live/flight/...702Z/KBUR/KLAS Also, tomorrows flight is filed the exact same way. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/...702Z/KBUR/KLAS |
We get paid by the hour? Haha interesting route

If you frontier folks don’t know we got a completely BS restraining order put on us last time based on what a few people said on recorded lines and posted online. Better to not put up stuff like this even if it’s just tongue in cheek

Certainly an interesting route. As someone who frequents that route, I can only think that every restricted airspace was active, even then that's wild. Hope no one had a connection but I'm sure they missed it lol.

If they do it at 18,000 I'll take a window seat on a sunny day

Was probably just an over-fueled aircraft that needed to burn extra fuel en route versus defuel in order to be below MLW.

Possibly even a last second MX swap.

What kind of inspection is needed for an overweight landing? That would probably be quicker than flying around for hours.

brakes however, took 2 hours to cool to the point where we could taxi again at a station that had no brake fans |

It doesn’t matter what it any inspections are required. What matters is that a plane may not be dispatched unless it is going to be below the max landing weight at the point of landing. You cannot simply land above that weight for convenience and write it up upon arrival. Mechanical or medical diversion would be a different story.

Haha. What FlyDiamond said; you really think the company can dispatch a plane with a known landing weight thousands of pounds overweight, because it’s just a sign off?
Jyri, is that you?

Inspection after an overweight landing at BURBANK?

Yeah, that has MX swap written all over it, to a plane with too much fuel.

Why would they be flying at FL380 to burn off fuel?

Would make sense if it was LAS-BUR, but this is BUR-LAS.
How about…fueler in Burbank was so busy on the “Gram” that he fueled the plane to 40,000 pounds instead of 10,000 pounds. That “gram” be distracting people |
Maybe there was a sigmet for severe turbulence on the more direct route and they didn’t want to risk it.
|
I heard that their was an reports aliens and UFO’s along the route and they didn’t want to risk it.
