Continental Flight 3407 Transcript - Last Moments


Continental Airlines ( a COLGAN ) plane involved is similar to this aircraft
NTSB last briefing:
NASA video teaches dangers of tailplane icing
NTSB previus briefing:
Investigators have gathered evidence that pilot commands not a build up of ice on the wings and tail.
The flight data recorders show that the flight was routine until roughly a minute before impact, when the crew lowered the landing gear and extended the flaps.
Almost immediately, the airspeed bled off and the stick-shaker activated, followed by a stick-pusher that automatically lowered the nose. It appears the captain pulled back on the stick with enough force to overpower the pusher and added power, causing a 31-degree pitch-up. The wings immediately stalled, and the airplane whipped to the left, then entered a steep right turn. The pilots continued to fight with the controls, and they were starting to recover when they "ran out of altitude.
NTSB previous briefing:
The crew got a stall warning and the stick pusher engaged but still the aircraft pitched upward 31 degrees before turning almost 180 degrees and dropping onto a house near the outer marker for Buffalo Niagara International Airport. The sequence of events, which included a 45-degree dive with a 106-degree right bank ended 26 seconds later.
The aircraft's anti-icing system had been ON for most of the flight and, while both pilots discussed the "significant" icing their aircraft was experiencing, at no time did they use the "severe icing" descriptor that is the official notification of flight-threatening buildup.
"They [the crew] didn't say that it was severe icing....The weatherman didn't say that it was severe icing."
The last radar hit showed the aircraft with a forward speed of only 100 knots and it lost 800 feet in five seconds.
The autopilot was ON for part of the sequence and the engines were set to full power just before impact.
NTSB previous briefing:
Crew briefed ILS approach to runway 23 in Buffalo and
discussed visibility 3 miles, snow and mist at 16000, visibility hazy so requested 12000 shortly after cleared to 11000, FDR showed airframe de-ice selected ON, followed by a cockpit discussion of significant ice on windshield and leading edge of wings.
Final events timeline:
End-of-recording minus 1 min: landing gear selected down
End-of-recording minus 40 secs: flaps 15 selected
"within seconds of flap selection": "series of severe pitch and roll excursions"
"shortly after that": crew attempted to raise flaps and gear "just before the end of the recording"

This aircraft was 5 miles out and all of a sudden we have no response from that aircraft

20:46 - ???: all I can tell you is that aircraft over the marker and we're not talking to them now

20:52 - ???: k

21:04 - ATC: Delta 1998, you getting any icing where you're at?

21:05 - Delta 1998: uh, we're picking up on the way down - I dont think we're building anymore here, but about uh 6500 down to 3500 maybe?

21:13 - ATC: thank you sir

21:17 - ATC: Delta 1998, there's gonna be a delay, I'm gonna bring you back around, expect a hold over KLUMP

24:22 - 1998: will do

24:45 - ATC: Delta 1998, 6 miles from KLUMP maintain 2300 until established on a localizer, clear to ILS approach runway 23

24:54 - delta 1998: ILS 23 and we're still in the imc here, 2300 DELTA 1998

25:00 - atc: are you getting any kind of icing or anything there?

25:03 - DELTA 1998: uhh! It doesn't appear to be building, we have a 1/2..1/4 inch from the descent that has remained this whole time

25:11 - atc: thank you
25:13 - ATC: Cactus 1452 turn right heading 220 to intercept LOCALIZER

25:18 - cactus 1452 intercept LOCALIZER cactus 1452 and we've been picking up ground lights here for the last or 10 minutes

25:25 - atc: okay, stand by right for our ice report

25:36 - atc: who was that?

25:39 - cactus 1452: '52 sir, we've been getting ice since about 20 miles south of the airport

25:46 - atc: - cactus 1452 OK, if you can let me know when you get out of the icing, aircraft coming up from the south was reporting that earlier

25:25 - atc: DELTA 1998, if you could, just disregard the auto land sir, contact 120.5 just let him know if you have any variation in the LOCALIZER or anything

26:34 - DELTA 1998: -5 OK, DELTA 1998, thanks

27:05 - ???? ...any kind of information you can get, we'd appreciate it

27:12 - ???? sir, right now, 2300 seems pretty clear here

ANAC - Consulta Pública contra Pilotos CIVIS

Esta imagem é apenas um Modelo do Formulário de Consulta Pública da ANAC.
Use o link no final do Post para baixar o Formulário em branco.


PILOTOS CIVIS.

É hora de darmos a nossa opinião.

A ANAC abriu Consulta Pública em 04 FEVEREIRO 2009


A idéia proposta já consta da minuta de mudança da Regulamentação, se aprovada, qualquer piloto militar poderá assumir os controles de uma aeronave de empresa COMERCIAL em voo regular, tomando o lugar do co-piloto.

Basicamente o militar voaria pela empresa, mas por ser militar continuaria sendo remunerado pela FAB. Receberiam o treinamento e formariam um batalhão de pilotos à disposição das empresas comerciais.

Se isso for aprovado corre-se o risco das empresas darem preferência aos militares para corte de gastos.
A proposta é para adicionar o seguinte parágrafo na seção 121.545 do RBHA.

(d) um piloto das Forças Armadas, autorizado pelo detentor do certificado de empresa de transporte aéreo operador da aeronave e pelo piloto em comando, e devidamente qualificado, conforme Programa de Treinamento aprovado do operador da aeronave.

Qualquer um pode participar da Consulta Pública, não precisa ser piloto, e dar a sua opinião a respeito disso, basta acessar o link:
