Sully movie

It really is nice. Ideally I'd like to fly with sane people with good CRM, but if I had to pick one, good CRM is the way to go. Where these guys are going to run into trouble is with people who don't take their political/social nutjobiness with a grain of salt and shut down. That's the danger in talking about that stuff, getting the guy you're flying with to not want to help you out anymore.

I wish I could say I haven't been there. But at the very least I always remember that we'll hang together if something happens, and the NTSB isn't going to take "but he was a doosh" as an excuse.

I find that if anything I go the other direction. The bigger a dingleberry the other guy is, the more likely I am to point out when he's screwing up.

But you have a great point. You're all in this together. Absolutely nothing else matters between block out and block in other than operating a safe airplane.

What an excellent reason to NOT talk about politics or religion in the front office.

Yup. My policy is to give absolutely zero response. Even if the guy is saying exactly what I think, I don't even throw out an "oh really?" You never know where that stuff is going to turn.

I predict @Maximillian_Jenius will notice the right main tires on the A320 in the movie was actually off of a A319-211. ;)
Second predictions, we shall see a @Derg sighting in the background. First person to find it gets a guaranteed interview at Southern Jets.

I'm a nerd, so I'll say it. Why are they showing EPR gauges for IAE V2500 engines when the US Airways bus clearly has N1 primary gauge CFM56 engines?
 
At our Burlingame-based sim facility we had Clint Eastwood and Aaron Eckhart a while back. Now it makes sense.


But our sim wasn't used in the movie.

I can already throw in a technical error. The movie trailer shows an IAE powered aircraft, at least on the push back, and the actual aircraft had CFM engines. The CRM's are easy to discern they are quite a bit larger in the Fan Area and the exhaust is in two concentric sections.

Good catch, they are using the wrong aircraft for the movie as far as power-plants are concerned. The actual Aircraft in question was a CFM powered 320. Only two round gauge digital outlines on the upper ECAM for N1 and EGT.
 
You would think considering it's all CGI it really wouldn't be that hard to make the damn plane correct. Not like anyone but y'all would notice anyway.
 
You would think that they're planting to non aviation nerds and don't really care that they are showing EPR's instead of N1's...

PS how do you tell the difference in the landing gear? They look the same to me.

The airplane they pulled out of the desert for this movie was a West airplane. 6XXAW. All of theirs were IAE-powered.

...it's the 4th of July! And this thread has turned into dissecting a Hollywood trailer? :bounce:

Some of you need to get laid, bad! :biggrin:

No kidding! It's a movie...a drama. Not a documentary targeted to professional aviators.
