If you have Zero or almost no visibility, you still need to be able to safely land the aircraft 🛬 . This is a great example of why pilots need to be instrument rated and experienced. In Hunt for Red October, the Russian sub driver confidently states, "Give me a map and I could fly blindfolded in the Alps" 🤠 😎 . His COB (Chief of the Boat) sarcastically replies, "if the maps are accurate enough" 😉 . If true that is some EB-2 NIW type talent, (if you can pass "Dhanasar 2"). Would the USCIS buy it 🤔 ? ************************************************* For those who sadly remember the fatal plane crash of John F. Kennedy Jr. near Martha's Vineyard in 1999 ... https://lnkd.in/ggk2S8Tm According to the NTSB (National Transportation Safety Board), the probable cause of the crash was "the pilot's failure to maintain control of the airplane during a descent over water at night, which was a result of spatial disorientation". Essentially JFK Jr. was flying with little no visibility and was NOT instrument rated. - He was not qualified or experienced enough to operate an aircraft in those conditions. - He was unable to rely on the instruments as his main or sole source of navigation ***************************** Most newer and younger pilots fly with visual approaches. You essentially rely on what you can see and therefore you fly there and land there. What if you cannot see or find the runway? What if you become inverted/disoriented and don't know which way is up or down? Where is the ocean? Another example of why you need 2 pilots in the cockpit. #themoreyouknow 🌈 #immigration #globalmobility #pilots #aviation #greencard #eb2niw #alpa #airbus #a350

This is the second half to the STCW assessement. Compass Errors Variation can be observed on any magnetic compass, whether or land away from any magnetic or on a ship at sea. When Magnetic North is to the East of True North, the Angle of Variation will be labeled East.

How do you plan your approach and landing to a non-towered airport in your jet? Do you adhere to the guidance offered in AC 90-66C, PHAK Chapter 14, and AIM Chapter 4, Section 3? Do you avoid straight-in approaches while executing an instrument approach in non-instrument conditions? There are many strategies to mitigate the risk of mid-air collision. Adherence to published guidance and local procedures listed in the Chart Supplement offer best practices and give you the opportunity to demonstrate your professionalism. #AviationSafety #ProfessionalPilot #Bizav #NBAA #AOPA #FlightSafetyFoundation

Both pressurization auto controllers are set by the active flight plan loaded in the MCDU. The QNH entry on the MCDU Approach Performance page refines the depressurization schedule for the landing. #A320#ATA_21#Air_Conditioning#QUIZ#abbasaviatin#FAA#EASA

#Boeing 737-cl TCAS SYSTEM TEST: - Turn ON the TCAS buy rotating knob on ATC/TCAS control panel - Push TEST button to start the test and verify "TCAS TEST" on each display is shown - Wait for synthetic voice from communication system to hear "TCAS SYSTEM TEST OK" or "FAIL"

For 737 technicians a daily common view😊😊but for others a view they never see, or only hear a little when sitting in the cabin as a passenger.🙂🙂
