 Narrative:
 
 An Aeromexico Boeing 767-200, registration XA-TOJ performing flight AM-2
 from Madrid,SP (Spain) to Mexico City (Mexico), was rotating for takeoff
 from Madrid's runway 36L when the tail of the aircraft contacted the runway
 surface leaving debris behind. The crew continued the takeoff and climb,
 levelled off and descended only after the oxygen masks were released, then
 entered a hold to burn off fuel and returned to Madrid for a safe landing
 about 90 minutes after departure. Two cabin crew received injuries, the
 aircraft sustained substantial damage.
 
 An Air Europa Airbus A330 departing after the Aeromexico received nose gear
 tyre damage while departing over the debris left by the Boeing and needed to
 return, too, see Incident: Air Europa A332 at Madrid on Apr 16th 2013,
 damaged nose gear tyres on takeoff.
 
 Air Traffic Control reported the aircraft climbed out without any comment,
 later into the departure climb the crew indicated they had cabin pressure
 problems and needed to return to Madrid. There was no mention of the
 possibility of a tail strike and no mention of injuries on board. The tower
 controller had not been able to see the tail contact the runway surface
 about 4km from his position, between the Aeromexico and Air Europa there
 were a few other departures without any problems.
 
 On May 3rd 2013 Spain's CIAIAC reported the three flight attendants seated
 in the rear galley heard strange noises during takeoff. When they proceeded
 to inform the flight deck about the noises the flight crew already prepared
 to return to Madrid due to the cabin pressure problems at 14,000 feet. Then
 the passenger oxygen masks were released. The crew informed ATC about cabin
 pressure problems 22 minutes after departure. Two of the three cabin crew in
 the aft galley complained about neck pain. The aircraft received substantial
 damage to the lower fuselage including the near complete loss of both APU
 compartment doors. The Air Europa A332 departed 29 minutes after departure
 of XA-TOJ as 7th aircraft following XA-TOJ. The runway inspection following
 that departure recovered two metallic pieces of debris from the runway.

On a rough runway; something like one of the old Hartsfield runways in 
Atlanta?
Seems like there should be a warning sensor in the tail that provided 
time to slow the rotation.

Interesting.
One guy says he has to duck to walk under the tail of a parked 767-300, another 
says that many idiots just yank the stick back and hold it there until the 
wheels leave the runway, and yet another guy mentions that landing with spoilers 
increases AOA. Is there really a situation in which you want to touch down with 
spoilers deployed? Seems like a good way to increase touchdown speed and hence 
rollout distance.

 How about that! Now we need to see it when it has another 7 on the front
 of what is there.

 I remark to my wife when we are driving and interesting numbers come up
 on the odometer. She's not too thrilled.

 How old is your iPhone?
 If it's 4 or 4s, you can use it with Tracfone's BYOP service if it's in
 Verizon's database already. If it has a 4G/LTE radio in it (iPhone 5), you
 probably can't activate it on Tracfone. The big sticking point is it has to
 be a phone that was once used on a Verizon postpaid plan.

 http://tracfonewireless.com/byop/

 BYOP gives you triple minutes, triple texts, and triple data. For
 example, if you buy a $20 / 60 minute pin card, on a BYOP phone you'd get
 180 minutes of talk time, 180 text messages, and 180 MB of data.
 Lately I've been able to get the 200 minute cards for $20 (normally $40),
 so for $20 I get 600 minutes and 600 texts, and 90 days added to my
 expiration date. I don't use data on my flip phone, so the data just
 accumulates towards the day that I might swap my service over to a smart
 phone.

Re: [MBZ] Republic wireless

2014-07-15 Thread Curt Raymond via Mercedes
You could get some service with those though. Dad kept a bag phone right up 
until they shut analog service off. We could make calls wy back in the 
woods. Last fall he managed to get his Jeep stuck and they had to hike quite a 
ways to find service. Then we discovered that my GPS isn't set up on the same 
coordinate system as his. Fortunately Delorme came through and I found him on 
the (paper) map.
For his birthday I bought him a set of traction ramps and an adapter so that a 
hi-lift jack will work on his Jeep which otherwise has no flat surfaces to hook 
on to. In November when all the guys show up for deer camp I'll present his 
hi-lift jack.

I cracked my screen already. Bummer. I treat it no differently than my 4, and 
have it in the same case.  I had my 4 for over three years and it looks like 
new.

Not sure how to interpret this or just chalk it up as an anomaly.  Battery life 
is definitely poorer with exactly the same settings as my 4, and it's three 
years old with the original battery.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Another Fkying Tale

2014-07-15 Thread G Mann via Mercedes
Rotating for takeoff refers to the airplane rotating at the center of
lift, which at takeoff will be the approximate centerline of the wings,
ie.. nose up, tail down, to increase the angle of attack of the wings,
generate greater lift, and defeat gravity temporarily, also known as
flight.

Large, Heavy, Airline size aircraft have takeoff rotation angle limits
which, if followed by the ever attentive flight deck crew, prevent the tail
from striking the ground from to high deck angle... It is possible to
rotate the aircraft with such force it will break the tail off, or in a
couple cases.. the entire back portion of the aircraft... Ooops..

It's called Major structural damage and requires the airplane to be put
out of service for long period or in some cases.. scrapped.  In any case..
your next job application is at the unemployment office.

2014-07-15 Thread Rich Thomas via Mercedes
Actually, initially, it is rotating about the wheel or bogey axles, more 
or less, to get the nose up to generate more angle of attack and more 
lift.  This guy rotated it a bit much before the wheels got off the 
ground, or maybe shortly after.


The old 727s would slowly do that on the ground if the plane was being 
refueled and the guy who was supposed to be opening and closing various 
tank valves left the aft tank valve open and closed the others.  Not 
that I would directly know anything about that...

keep the screws organized. There are several different sizes that are

I cracked my screen already. Bummer. I treat it no differently than my 4, and

Not sure how to interpret this or just chalk it up as an anomaly.  Battery life 
is definitely poorer with exactly the same settings as my 4, and it's three

The 727 was sensitive to CG on the ground, but it was never fueling that caused 
any of that.  It was mostly loading passengers with nothing in the cargo bins.  
That was why Delta had a policy of leaving the aft stairs down until loading 
was almost complete.

As far as 757-767’s go, it about 2-2.5 degrees/second that gets you exactly 
where you want to be.  Good tail clearance, clean liftoff, and good rate-of 
climb.

Best,

Your response does not show as ...Curt via Mercedes... which also is

I think goverment-mail (gmail) should hire a few spammers for their
ingenuity and inventions which create the need for complicating email.
The spammers can figure it out quicker and better than the 6-figure
desk jockeys in their fat pension laden palo-alto estate offices.
Fatwallets merely breeds greater espousal of top-down management that
is devoid of all things except for fear of liability attack.  We
really are upside down in my opnion.

[MBZ] OT: Another Fkying Tale

2014-07-15 Thread archer75--- via Mercedes

More on this story:

..A passenger reported the takeoff appeared normal initially until 
the aircraft began to rotate, the nose lifted up, however, nothing 
happened. The nose dropped again, then rose very sharply perhaps because 
of the runway end becoming visible. A sound of impact was heard from the 
back of the cabin followed by scratching sounds, that lasted for about 5 
seconds, then the aircraft began to climb. During the initial climb the 
aircraft was shaking, the right wing dropped which the passenger, 
frequent traveller, perceived as unusual. The aircraft continued to 
climb heading north out of the Madrid area, no announcements were 
made...snip
