It is the data link that had me thinking TG was not a 757
pilot.

Who is TG? Tell us smart guy, what is this data link you keep

professing?

Oh, TJ.

You might want to look up the fourth generation VDL4, as that is
where

it is
hoped that ICAO will adopt the VHF digital radio standard. The 757
is

the
demonstration vehicle for the data link. Large airlines like
American

use
the data link to program their FMS systems and pass written
messages to

the
crew. A similar system was demonstrated for aging DC-9-83s in

conjunction
with LAAS at Continental.


Ah, so the fact that we type in routings makes us unsafe? Canned
routes

stored
IN the FMC would be grouped in the same way as being unsafe huh?


I did not wrote the word "unsafe" TJ.

Large airlines like Ameriflot are PARKING airplanes and firing

employees(all
TWA, but thats another thread).


TWA employees have a lot of bad karma.

Of course you wouldnt know this, but we HAVE ACARS, have HAD ACARS
and

USED
ACARS for the last two years on ALL our airplanes, 37's, 57's and the

Bus's.

But TJ, you went into great detail about how America West doesn't use
the data link!!

What YOU call data link is called ACARS by everyone else, but then
you

invented
splaps and negative lift so I guess thats ok, you can call it
whatever you

want,
just dont expect anyone else to know WTF you're talking about.


I am pleased you have come around to admit that you were wrong.

In this way, operator error was eliminated for the 757 type almost
completely and there were 18 years of completely safe operation.


So Ameriflot NEVER had any accidents for 18 years?


No 757 airframes were lost by anyone in that time. The development
and deployment of the data link provided safety, right up until a
Service Bulletin was ignored and the foreign NOTAM came off 180 days
later.

Hmm, we'll we're running a
close 1st with ZERO fatalities in 20yrs. But wait, we've only been
in

business
for that long so I guess that makes 100% fatality free years.


I still go with 2 zeros since 1997, as the adding of a fatality back
in was probably political. Those numbers are driven by automation and
hand flying is for hobyists.



Ya think so, fjuckwit? Bwawhahwhahwhahwhahhwhahwhahhwahwhahhwhahwhahhwhah !

And BTW, since when does ACARS fly the airplane?
