Its just giving nationals a job la whats wrong

In my opinion without ILS wont be so much of a safety issue. But definitely a big issue for traffic sequencing aka delay arrivals as I believe vor app need further spacing and unable to have those speed control on app. Now that really affects the efficiency of BKI

Oh yes they did thus the automation came into being

Why the bashing on over reliance of automation? Why not because one doesnt understand automation. Old hags and western boys say new guys lack stick and rudder skills. I say old hags dont understand automation thus rely on stick and rudder.

777 can be programmed to fly a visual but not autoland. However, to know how to program it is another matter. So is it really lack of manual flying skills or lack of understanding of automation? Anyway, when an ang moh screw up its due weather etc, when yellow man screw up its due lack of skill.

Yes make it daily hit the market

SFO has ILS but not recently cos they are undergoing construction work, thus glidepath was removed. Localizer still available though. However, Evrn on other days when ILS is available in SFO, ATC will only clear AC for a visual app. Vis app procedure can remove atc responsibility of traffic separation. Many times asking AC to spot another traffic and thats quite a task after a long flight trying to spot an EMB 190 while turning base, but ils still used by crew.

Sandeep Yalor perhaps too late to apply toga, appr idle to toga needs bout 8 seconds which they didnt have very sad. There must have been other violations that led to that, how many times in flying career does the left fma reads hold during final appr? None rite now back to vol 2 read up more on automatics haha Mr choong The instructor is an experienced 777 capt thats why he s an instructor

It is normal sir. Every pilot can be be transfered to another ac type in their lifetime some more than otherssame goes for capts n FOs. Give you an insight how this is done. AC type change can be due to variety of reasons, upgrade, company ac change/ retirement, movement, change of jobs etc etc. When a pilot change for an ac type he is flying to another type, firstly he will attend some induction course ground classes performance classes etc whichever way as stated in that company's training guidelines. After that is off to the simulator to get familirize with buttons and switches procedures and handling the ac. Once thats all done the pilot would move on to flying the real plane. Thats where he gets his first hour. He AC type. Some call it line training some call it OE etc same thing. This is to let the pilot fly the AC and get used tothe characteristics of the new type. Diff companies have different training guidelines some longer sone shortee and this is done on actual revenue flight. On training flights like this the pilot will be flying it under the instruction of an instructor. A training capt aka QFI TRI TRE LIP whatever the terms are basically means a training capt who is qualified to train another pilot. After a certain time frame and lotsa checks and assessment the trained pilot would then go on and fly solo aka no more under trining. Thats how everyone obtain their first hour. In asiana case its the same just that the pilot flying had transitioned and was under traing and on the RHS was his instructor. Bear in mind its not 2 ineperienced crew, to be an instructor a pilot has to obtain certain experience to qualify to instruct. So as to asiana experience definitely not an issue.On a seperate note, my 2 cents worth maybe they had use FLCH to get down and the first FMA on the left says hold below 100ft theresno stall protection. But to even get to the point of having use FLCH at that point in time, there has to be violations of a stabilized criteria way before the crash happened. Sandeep betul ka Some ppl out there are bashing asian crew for having inadequate manual flying skills. As i see this case its probably a matter of not understanding the automatics.

chinese airlines fares the worst can understand cos no one departs chinese airports on time. The sky above is just too crowded

Hi guys, Just need some info on how to obtain a Malaysia PPL, would like to do some GA flying for recreational purposes. Had been in contact with 2 flying clubs in Johor but one of them wasnt sure had asked me to contact director DCA, I mean for a PPL do I really need to contact the director himself? Oh ya by the way, I am currently holding a SIngapore ATPL (Msian citizen). Thanks

Luggage mishap is due screw ups incident above is good airmanship, would you want your plane to land when there s an aircraft on he runway?

Maybe cos syd always uses the IVA thus seperation rest on the ac on approach, hard to judge the ac on runway sometimes, anyway nothing serious, happen many times when landing ac could not vacate runway in time, some times 3nm separation is really tight

Even if ATC would ask to decend 400ft as a pilot I think one should query back 400ft seriously???? maybe they are too tired

Still can't understand why the crew descend to 400ft, no ATC would ever ask an A/c to decend 400ft

Maybe its some sort of fault? Engine unable to go idle mode, not sure if this is part of 737 MEL

If its charter for real malaysians well done if its for phantom voters then aiyo

More often than not grannies are the ones with bad attitude

Follow published loss comm procedure

Proving light i think

they never did and don't expect them to, nice entertainment to read the news sometimes

Its the right and priviledge as a citizen of a country (locals) rather, to have the first choice in getting employment and other benefits, eg 1 local 1 foreigner same qualification local should get first and down the list, foreigner shouldnt be allowed to compete at ll in rhe first place, thats the benefit and right of every citizen, no guarantee foreigners give better value or help our nation to progress, if they do, by how? Maybe true in the old days but this day and time locals are equally good or equally bad. Of cos if we are talking about not eough workers then thats a different story. Sometimes a company has to be fair by being not fair

Where locals lose out

wah really can 767 and 747 multi fleet licence ka love the press

Sin kch sin very reliable, aerobridge only if raining, twice a month on this sector for me no complains at all
