spot the topless passenger

At YouTube, paste search string " Citation Runway over shoot into Atlanta Bay
"

Look at about the 1:30 mark where the pax are deplaning into the boat.

Yeah, I looked, BFD. What's really strange is why the CJ powers up
again in the water! Anybody know the story here?

Yeah that's interesting, but when a bizjet runs off into a bay and a topless
lady gets out, that's *fascinating*.

There was a discussion about that awhile back. Many people believe
that the pilot went back in (he appears to) and tried to "drive" the
plane out of the water. Others believed it was an electrical issue
that caused the engine to spin up. Either way, its a sad way for a
cool airplane to get junked.

My son worked at Cessna and for a Cessna dealer. More than
one Citation has started itself in the hanger while
unattended.

My guess is that when the water rose up into the combustor, there was a
bunch of steam generated that got the turbines to start spinning again.
The FAA established the ignitors were on so assuming the fuel was as
well, the engine "lit up".

People have said the ignitors were on, and the throttle lever was
screwed up, and somehow it fired back up again. No idea how that
works.

The NTSB report is at:

http://ntsb.gov/ntsb/brief2.asp?ev_i...LA085& akey=1

Then Citations have had some bad starter relays, salt water
doesn't help. The power lever was not in cutoff, so it
fired up. It stopped [my guess] when it ran out of fuel
[possible reason the pilot landed a jet on an airport closed
to jets and downwind at that].

Except he landed at the airport he filed his flight plan to. So unlikely
he was out of fuel.

Nothing says he had enough fuel to start with, perhaps he
had to cruise lower than flight planned for fuel and ran
low, maybe the wind changed. But a running jet rarely quits
except for running out of fuel.
