Orlando tower aborts Southwest takeoff roll on taxiway.

[ppragman]

The issue I could see is sometimes the taxi lines extend aways on the runway. Especially if you do an intersection takeoff.

occasional ball-buzzing is a small price to pay to get crews to slow down

It really is. One thing I've always sort of wished I had, too, was a useful time check from thrust advancement to the high-speed abort regime. "Normal" versus "degraded" acceleration is subjective, etc. unless the latter is VERY obvious.

I think it would be cool if both had to loudly shout the runway number in unison.

Hilarious shenanigans would likely ensue.

Just another thing for the •bags that jam GPS to wreck-up.

I just want some modern-day Lt. Aldo Raine to go out, be unconcerned about statecraft, and start collecting thumbs.

We used to call that an "Eiffle Tower" on this site back in the day.

That would require a flight engineer, no?

 

[Bob Ridpath]

Help me here, please.

Would not a runway have different signage (i.e, 12-30) prior to entering same, followed by large white stripes and specific lighting? While a parallel taxiway might show the same heading, nothing else about it would suggest it might be a runway - no center line, for example, or other indications.

Am I wrong about that?

Reviewing the Honeywell site, the only “mainline sized” aircraft compatible with their RAAS is the 737.

They also list the Lineage 1000, but not the E190/E170, which is odd.

RAAS is on I think most if not all of the Purple types. Works good, last long time. We still verify the runway though for the lawyers.

 

[BlueMoon]

I’ve heard that the RAAS in the A300 yells “on taxiway, on taxiway, on taxiway” if you went over 40kts GS while on a taxiway.

It can be annoying as all get out on the ones that have it in the airframe that I operate. But could definitely keep pilots out od trouble...for the ones that don't immediately disable it.

Taxiing over 40kts isn't the wisest for safety or for you guys who get paid by the hour.

Tower radio clearance, over.

That's Clarence Oveur!

What?

Who?

You know, that flight that Ted Striker safely landed is always remembered for its flight crew of Capt Clarence Oveur and FO Roger Murdoch. But always forgotten, is FE/SO Victor Basta, the third member of the flight crew that is never mentioned in the tributes to this tragic night.

So if it was in SWA 737s, it would be going off all the time, and thus ignored by the crew and ultimately a loss of a safety system?

Or behind you.

Or parallel to you.
