I am not saying it is ok, just that it is not surprising. Then again, just saying 'yeah no surprise there' is not a very constructive criticism. I'm not sure I get what you mean in your last sentence. All the people that answered your thread are almost all crewmembers and all for different airlines...

What makes you think the crew should have ordered an evacuation? When do you think an evacution is ordered? When you're at the commands and your aircraft slides off the runway and the gear collapses, then chances are one or both engines are damaged as well. Is there a fire or not? You can not asses...

The crew on board followed the protocol??? Is it the industry standard NOT to evacuate an aircraft in such a situation? These are real comments made by Cebu Pacific management. UNBELIEVEABLE in this day and age how they even dare to say things like that in public just to downplay the incident and a...

A Cebu Pacific Air Airbus A320 "RP-C3266" with 165 passengers coming from Manila sustained damage in a landing accident in Davao city, the Philippines' 3rd largest airport, on Sunday evening, June 2nd. Upon landing on runway 23 in heavy rain, the aircraft went off into the grass on the rig...

Australian 737: A36-001 http://www.airliners.net/photo/Australi ... /1770017/L

So in other words the airliner flew four miles off course because the pilot was playing with his iPhone and got distracted?

Once again the press loves to exaggerate everything. What happened is what's called a "slow decompression". The so-called "explosion" is a loud bang, pretty much like the opening of a coke bottle but 1000 times louder, followed by a very deafening and loud whistling sound. The re...

Well, there is one "little" detail that seems to be forgotten. There is a condition attached to this deal: Americans were always criticizing their own airlines for buying "foreign" aircraft and not supporting their own "national" aircraft industry (such as Boeing) and c...

On Wednesday April 25th, Air Transat flight TS 152 from Montreal will be an A330-300 instead of the usual A310-300

Jet Airways would change it's hub to any city in Europe if it could get a better (airport) deal somewhere else. Wouldn't you do the same if you had an airline and you could get cheaper landing slots somewhere else? Of course you must also keep in mind the (code-share) agreements you have or could ha...

Well, are we all going to be shocked and wonder why one day they will close that beach and fence area, due to "SAFETY REASONS"??? The few "foolish" and "crazy" people that want to play the big hero and want to show off to their friends how "tough" they are cou...

Using all runways is not unusual. It can be for many reasons.: 1) If the winds are not too strong then there is no problem using both runways 20 or 25R for take-off 2) It can also depend on the destination of the aircraft. Flights heading east for example would take a short cut by using runway 20 in...
