This comment has nothing to do with this event, BUT, as an older aviator I'm disappointed that so many people who are involved in aviation have such a problem in knowing the difference between a "Hanger" & a "Hangar". Call me picky, as you read through these comments and the headline title. LOL
I heard that. I have just read my local paper where the correct word in about five different stories is BRAKES. As in the things that you use to slow down, spelled BREAKS. Silently seethed. :)
Not the same gripe, but I get annoyed when people write the time some event is occurring like 3:00 PM EST when it's daylight saving time. I often have to restrain myself in responding asking if the meeting is actually occurring an hour earlier or later. :) If you don't know the difference then drop the D or the S and use ET, CT, MT, etc...
It seems to me grammar and spelling have both gone down the tubes...and if I remember correctly, it seems to have happened with the advent of the internet.
You’ve got that right! I’ve never seen the English language misused as much as in the last few years. What kills me is that the new phones have spell-check, but I guess people just don’t care! I can understand the historically confusing there, their, they’re, but some people don’t even use periods, just running multiple sentences together, much less correct spelling or punctuation!
lol - have you read much online stuff lately? It's riddled with errors. "Lead" when what they meant is pretty much a daily occurrence. Anyway, this is way off topic. Sorry.
I hate it when someone (a lot of people do this) use the word 'Lose" by saying "loose" ....hope you don't loose your house key...don't get me started on the word with the (silent) T. statistics......why can't it be pronounced as it is spelled...oh yeah...they're the ones that can't spell.
There's nothing funny about that. That's just lack of situational awareness, whether a flight or s mx crew. When I was a young pup mechanic I couldn't keep track of the times people seemed to feel the need lock a brake and run the RPMs up to spin an aircraft around in front of the shop so it faced tail first into the hangar.
A cut and paste from my insurance agent: "current aviation insurance market we're facing which is really tough these days."
Just did a little looking to figure this out a bit more. This link to the airport via google streetview (airport view?) shows not only the hangers (my garden shed is built better) but also one of the two cessnas shown in the video.
The one that flipped wasn't airworthy before the event.....
Why he held power so long is beyond me. Either explaining to a pilot in training or watching numbers that didn't register right. Best to do runup's one engine at a time while taxiing parallel to runway.
Concerning a guy happens to be videoing..... I'd give them an excuse of it was planned especially with his gleeful excitement of something bag resulted. Maybe there were arguements about the berm wasn't protection enough from jet blast so they laid on major tonnages of jet blast with both engines at the same time.
I doubt American has engine maintenance there that would be doing a long runup of the engines because any mechanic would know he's marked for life after a stunt like this. But then disgruntled employees never fail to amaze.
Hah! This led me to SXM, and watching the people getting blown around on the beach. I was there for several hours, and didn't see one plane take off, but the idea of picking sand out of places sand usually doesn't get into kept me from that beach anyway. I was safely off shore diving.
from the technical manual: at ground idle power, at sea level, on a standard day CRJ engines put out a plume of jet blast such that 90 feet behind the engine, it is a 65 knot wind force. That's a Tropical Storm force wind, 90 feet behind the airplane, and that's just at ground idle power.
You would be surprised at the power. Back when I was working on the ramp, I was driving behind an idle Delta CRJ (about 100 to 120 feet) and right when was behind the plane, I was thrown to my left but didn't fall off luckily. Its like getting hit with a pretty good gust of wind. All that on idle parked at the gate.
Those are Air San Luis airplanes. I used to instruct there. American Eagle has a nice 3 sided blast fence. But, if it is a different airline, space is limited. Doing it on a runway, away from vehicles on nearby roads would have been best.
common sense would have been honored to be there at that test, but uncommon sense, good training and proper supervision, is what is called for in all similar situations.
Should have gone to other end of runway where there is a large run up area and no buildings. Where the were is a GA run up area midway between the ramp and the end of runway 11. It’s a small area not suited for jet aircraft. I saw a later video that showed a Cessna on its back and a airport maintenance tractor was in the hangar.
