Emirates near disaster on takeoff

[Screaming_Emu]

Well, the cabin crew might take excellent care of you as your airplane goes careening off the end of the runway at 300 miles per hour.

Doesn’t Envoy go mudding on a pretty regular basis?

 

[Screaming_Emu]

You know what the difference between you and me is? I don't GAF enough about you to care, or rather try and find out, where you work.

Cool.

It’s like the gear up mantra- “those who have, and those who will.”

I just want to say, before I left, one of the last ones to test the unimproved abilities of the CRJ told his FO moments before leaving the prepared surface “I know what I’m doing!”

Side note: FOs, your brakes always work.

Now this is what I come on here for. What a quality human.

Imagine going out of your way to tell someone you don’t care about them.

Like all the way into the mud?

 

[bLizZuE]

Ok that took me a few seconds.

What I'm struggling with here is how the plane didn't just take off; assuming it was trimmed correctly, they would have been fighting the controls to keep it on the ground at those speeds, no?

What if it was on a treadmill?

It would need big tires if it was on a treadmill.

That was epic. But not as epic as the years-long thread about “is there a (SouthernJets) pilot discount at the Cincinnati Creationist Museum?”

(in a Quebecois accent)

”It was the best thread in the weeeeeeeeeeeeeeerld!”

It delivered like FDX ground trucks, bro

I don’t have a ton of jet time but…maybe not? I mean that’s one of the things of a jet is they require an active rotation they don’t start to lift on their own like say a 172

Oh no

Oh no

Correct. You’d have to overtrim an airliner pretty significantly to get it to rotate on its own, even at speeds well above Vr.

The Challenger 300 will go flying. I was playing around with rudder effectiveness and directional control in the sim on V1 cuts. We were trying to hold the centerline as long as we could while keeping it on the ground. It required quite a bit of forward pressure on the yoke. It also takes very little back pressure to rotate during normal circumstances.
