Denzel Washingtons new movie - Flight

[Ajax]

Looks interesting, I'm sure there will be several inaccuracies that are dissected here early and often, but I hope it's enjoyable. I'll watch pretty much anything with airplanes in it.

 

[derg]

I think I'll watch that.

 

[FrankieFlyCRQ]

I'll watch!

I'll start!

DC-9 with API winglets and 717 avionics

 

[Zidac]

As will I.

Drunk hero pilot has one come apart in flight, so while his FO is losing it, he goes inverted, lands upside down, and saves most of the lives of the people on the plane?

Yeah, I think I'm down.

That's ALMOST as crazy as some guys landing an airplane in a rural mid-American town using nothing but differential engine thrust!

I saw 5 cheesy mistakes and cliches just in the trailer...

I do like how in all plane movies the FA addresses the CA as CA. Only Delta does that. (kidding Dough)

I'll watch it too I guess.

Emily says: "Too close for missiles, switching to guns!"

 

[MQAAord]

In 7 years I addressed one pilot as "Captain". I used that term with him because he was a complete jerk and I treated him with formal politeness.

 

[89-LX]

I wonder if that FO had his ATP and type, if the plane wouldn't have crashed?

 

[juxtapilot]

JC M&G and a Movie?

 

[JordanD]

I wonder if that FO had his ATP and type, if the plane wouldn't have crashed?

I'll bet he only had 5,000 hours too. Burn him!

Looks like it's worth checking out.

Well, since I look like a sub commander (thanks BobDDuck) I always state "YOU have the Con, sir" when I leave my seat.

 

[Hacker15e]

Well, the obvious problem here is that airliners can't go inverted.

 

[karpediem]

I'm excited.

They can but they do have a problem with thier inverted flight tanks, if that's what you mean.........

 

[deadstick]

So....the amended Memory Item for Mother Of All Flight Control Malfunctions is

1) FLIGHT ATTENDANT.......PAGED
2) DOUBLE SCOTCH.........ORDERED
3) SOLUTION.......................PULL FROM A#*
4) DAY...................................SAVE
..............................................BE PREPARED TO BE THROWN UNDER THE BUS


Yea...I'll see it. I'll take my wife and mother-in-law who are both afraid of flying.

He was pulling a Goose and saying "Hello" to the NIMBY's. I figure any plane can go inverted...once, except an AIrbus. I don't think HAL would approve.
