    I was on a flight with lightning strike several years ago, it was LOUD. The pilot came on and said all systems are normal and just kept going.

    Seemed like a combination of reactions. I think he was upset with ATC, then the lightning strike shook him. After all that he and his equipment probably weren’t in the best shape to ensure the safest trip possible. Total speculation, of course. I wouldn’t blame though…

      Maybe just a smell? Maybe they pushed in the breakers for the radios and instruments, but did not dare to push in the high current items (heaters, de-icers) without a check.

    Aircraft get struck and are often part of the discharge. Sounds like the pilots were mad at ATC for not sending them south.

    • @MattyEngland

      Agreed, not sure how they knew what the weather was to the south anyway, they were never facing that direction so couldn't have seen anything on their weather radar.

    Why would Approach have a better idea of the weather than Departure???

    • @detritus23
      @detritus23 Год назад +2

      Partially because he had pilot reports and may be getting his radar information from different sources. Also, Approach and Departure are on different frequencies, may cover different parts of the airspace, and may be getting reports from pilots that differ.

    I've noticed that fuel remaining is sometimes reported in hours, pounds, or kilograms. Is there no standard? Seems like you'd want to know both time and quantity. Anyone know out there?

    • @hefoxed
      @hefoxed 2 месяца назад

      hours/time: how long the plane can be in the air for ATC. Pounds/kilograms: for emergency/fire planning. So, to my understanding, depends on type of emergency on what is needed. Like for medical, weight is not needed (unless overweight landing?). Time depends on multifactors that atc doesn't have thus why providing weight doesn't cover time.

      It's too easy to identify a lightning strike, and if no evidence for the emergency declaration, then the pilots would be in big trouble.

      As for being a pilot, no thanks. General aviation is cool, but I wouldn't want to fly one of those big jets!! 40 or 50 years ago I'm sure it was challenge and a very satisfying job, but these days with the exception of take off and landing, all the automation makes it look monotonously boring for 95% of the day.

    getting struck by lightning is not unusual for an airliner. they are designed to absorb strikes without any damage. the pilot did not report any damage or any malfunction of any kind. Yet wanted to come back home. He better have had a good reason. And if he did, he is suppose to declare the reason. The idea that a pilot can abort the flight at any time for any reason, with no justification other than his own feelings, is simply not true. He can, but he won't be working for for long.
