You know what, Tarver, you caught me red handed. You're right. I'm not an F/A-18 pilot. I'm actually a CF-18 pilot. If you are an F/A-18 pilot then your squadron is in need of remedial training, sock. |

Do you believe Canadains have somehow eliminated the mechanical backup in their F-18s? Perhaps you mean you are lying. |

Yep, this guy's a Hornet pilot. He certainly talks like one! Where are you stationed, Monkey? If Cold Lake, is Pat Peters still up there? I don't know about the boy. If his story is true the Canadian Government has dropped out of the rest of the community and stopped even mentioning the mechanical stick backup. It is a safety of flight issue. |

If his story is true the Canadian Government has dropped out of the rest of the community and stopped even mentioning the mechanical stick backup. It is a safety of flight issue. Missed the front part of the conversation, John. What exactly did he say? I made a claim WRT the break out force of the F/A-18 stick and monkey came by to correct me. The Mech flight control function isn't easily "eliminated" from the legacy Hornet. It is still part of the FCF checklist, however and is checked on A and C FCF's. (I fly so few B's that I haven't a clue if it's on that list.) I don't personally find it very useful (my opinion only) which is, I think, why it WAS eliminated from the Super Hornet. The Super Hornet exists in a much different electric airplane reliability reality. Can you imagine the skew the F/A-18E's pilot reported defect rate is doing to the entire system? The numbers are actual war operations, so their is no time to play chinese fire drill to hide defects. The numbers are nearly as unbelievable as FAA turning in two zero killed years since 1997. Applying the RPL Model really paid off for the Navy. In fact, I can only recall hearing of one Mech-Off-Off incident (i.e. down to the stabs only for controlling the jet) in the F/A-18A-D, and the guy flying it (USMC?) shelled out shortly after because of the resulting oscillations. It is a simple thing to just break the stick out and use the backup. |

If you mean the USAF Pat Peters at AETE, yes he's still here. I have to admit I don't really know the guy though. Where are you at? |
