I used to know a guy who was an A&P/Engineer for Continental, and he specialized in 757s. We got to walk through a gutted 757 that was getting a new interior, but the highlight of the day was a tour of the first 777-200 that Continental bought. It still had plastic bags on most of the seats.
Firstly, no one cares what an AME is or can be bothered to go ogle it you self-important ninny. Secondly, how do you manage to make FIVE mistakes typing only two lines? Thirdly, if you're that careless please get a job that doesn't involve aeroplanes.
It seems much more complicated than it is. Once you’re familiar with the base systems, it’s pretty much common sense. Though most pilots today are not mechanically inclined at all and would struggle with what you saw in the video.
@@RS-uo2nd Yes it worries me that the high reliability of modern systems is giving them a misplaced confidence and that will be shown up as all these new planes get older and components also get older.
Most airline pilots that I've met have a GOOD knowledge of aircraft systems. Pilots and mechanics have the individual knowledge that they need to do their jobs, not necessarily the same level of knowledge. Pilots look at it from an "MEL" perspective. MEL is Minimum Equipment List. They know the minimum equipment it takes for safe, legal, flight. They also know what they are willing to fly with whether legal or not. Crew refusals are common even if the aircraft is legal for safe flight.
@@RS-uo2nd "It seems much more complicated than it is. " You wouldn't say that if you actually worked on airliners. Go ahead and do a three page MEL and come back and tell us how uncomplicated they are. 100 to 300 lives are at stake. The smallest detail is extremely important, no matter how simple it seems.
