Alaska landing incident SNA

What’s a cutback procedure for departure at SNA for the 737?


Our TO profile is just normal.

We did one at SkyWest. I vaguely remember doing one at some of the corporate places too.

It’s basically pitch for V2 then at a certain distance or altitude go to a big power reduction at a more than normal flaps setting. Then at another distance or altitude go to normal power and clean up the flaps.

He may or may not be on a vacation. Rest assured he’s lurking.
He must have a new log-in.

Looking at the video, it’s really hard to tell, but it doesn’t look like anything out of the ordinary is going on and just planted it, but I’m really surprised it didn’t hold up any better than that. Hard to tell from seat 24A with that %]*}^ alarm going off though

This landing could have been the initiating event, had it been a hard enough landing. Or, it could’ve been the final event; if this plane had any previously reported or unreported hard landings; and this landing….whether normal or more firm…was just the one that broke the camel’s back, so to speak. That will be found in the materials analysis.
 
I wonder how that went down? Shut it down, Tell everybody to stay seated. Have CFR look for a fuel leak, and if no leak call for stairs?

How would ya'll handle this one?

Pretty much. With no threat of a fire or any leaking fuel, the elevated risk of pax injuries by having an emergency evacuation, isn’t really justified. Stairs at the R-1 door here, as seen, with an orderly normal deplaning, is fine and safe. SNA CFR (OCFA Station 33) is one of the few airport FDs that has their own stair truck and their own crash crane.

I agree. Probably not time to crucify the crew when none of us know what happened.
