Well, this isn't a good look.

Our guys were departing 1R on the Trukn, but instead of turning right, turned left...which placed them right in front of a Skywest RJ, which was departing 1L on the Stikk. 😵‍💫

Probably be a few months before we get to read the FSI findings...

 

The video went up today but it happened May 13th.

 

No it’s not….I however don’t know if the findings will be all that earth shattering…….seems like the had the wrong sid loaded or loaded the truckin but selected off one of the 28’s……..cause thier lateral track seems to do exactly what it would do if you loaded it off the 28’s.

What isn’t entirely clear from the audio at least is: Did the SkyWest crew get an RA?

 

Hmmm... The Trukn off the 28s makes a right turn to head out over the bay. I'm not sure at what altitude the Bus's FMS engages LNAV after departure, nor have I ever thought about what would happen if you departed 1R with 28 in the box. I guess it might command a left turn?

At OO we had a required runway lineup callout "Heading checks" -- you verified that the box, the hdg bug, and the runway numbers in front of you all matched. It's the one callout I still do (silently) in my mind when we take the runway.

But it could have been anything -- FMS malfunction, etc etc.

I don't actually recall to what altitude the RA callouts in the CRJ and/or 175 are inhibited, after takeoff...

 

below 1000’ you shouldn’t get an ra at all.

 

We have the same thing at United, just isn’t a callout, but the FM requires it be checked.

 

Isn’t a call out yet…

 

Wondering if maybe the MCP didn't get reset after the previous flight which presumably would've landed the 28s...it's an easy thing to miss.

On the Bus, do you depart LNAV off the ground or is it selected once airborne? Could a FD have commanded a left turn after reaching whatever minimum height HDG might engage and prior to LNAV engagement?

I don't know anything about the Airbus so if this sounds stupid, it's probably because I am.

 

Yup. Exactly my point...

 

These are normal questions I think.
The “MCP” on the airbus…….which really is not even close to being the same thing……will default to NAV…..it’s just that all information from the previous flight would have been dumped.
At 400 ft, that's when the lateral mode will automatically switch to NAV, provided NAV was in your Flight mode annunciator (FMA) on your PFD. The thing is you’d have to deliberately manipulate your “MCP” prior to takeoff for it to switch to HDG on its own………do this only if Tower assigns a heading in leu of your RNAV sid.

the lateral track of bus looked very similar to what you’d expect on the TRUKIN if it were set to 28L/R……but the crew would not have gotten correct FMAs on the takeoff roll if this were the case.

I really don’t know.

I think I’m just going to remind myself continue to emphasize on VVM, slowing it down, not rushing and not rushing the person next to you.
