Can't even edit a post, but it seems like a bunch of shills hover over these buttons more-so than what happens on your average reddit string..

Can anyone reply to me just exactly why this is a "good" comment?

Well unfortunately, nothing was really put in place as to how it can be prevented in the first place, nor is there much of anything about actually carrying out policing of such.

>One should also note that to help prevent incorrect selection of approach procedures, each pilot would program their own (FMS) side of the cockpit so any error would be noticed early in the approach. Nowadays, a lazy crew could just input approach on either FMS and just crossfill to the other FMS therefby transferring the wrong approach procedure to the other side! This is not true at all. The FMC for the left and right (sometimes center) ARE NOT independent systems. They access the same data for all three displays from the same system. You could be entering the INIT REF data on one screen while on the other screens you could be entering data into the RTE page or adjusting VNAV performance data in another. They most certainly do not take in separate data entries without overwriting an entry already put in by a different pilot. If a route change is made it is either the first entry or it will overwrite an existing entry.

Except KLM is slowly phasing them out and BA has the largest fleet of the oldest airframes remaining so it won't be long before all of the 400s are done. Even if the turn into BCFs they still won't last long. It's up to the 800s to continue on and then we'll see what the markets are like in another 20 years..

It's more or less going towards the LAX terminal redo, the new engine shops, and the 777s they picked for cheap.
