Work for the man myself, incidents like this often make brass take a second look at their provisions and resources and sometimes putting them to the test. nothing out or the norm, but erry none the less.Leave a comment:

Yeah I understand that drills are common, just what a coincidence that it's happening right after this flight vanishes. Not saying it's the government just saying it gave me a few goose bumps.
Sadly I'm not OC certified and cannot participateLeave a comment:

Drills are fairly common. I know that at the large airport near me, they have sometimes closed a runway or taxiway (usually taxiway) in order to conduct drills/training for emergency personnel. It seems to happen every year or so.Just a little but of info, the FAA is having a drill soon. I'm keeping my employer name out of it but this is the email I just got. [will be participating in the FAA John Wayne Airport Drill with Orange County Fire Authority on April 11, 2014. We have dedicated 2 Orange County Ambulances to participate and need four EMTs to work the drill. Several other Fire/EMS Agencies will participate including Western Medical Center as the Base Hospital.There will be 100 patients that will need to be transported and extricated from a commercial airplane as well as helicopter rescue assists with transports.]
Kinda creeps me out in a way, making me believe that terrorism actually might be in the equation. But anyways, continue with your flight sim chat :pLeave a comment:

I've logged at least 5000 hours in flight sim 98' and 2000, I got this.
Except for the landing part... that was hard...
Just need the MS paperclip guy to give me the checklist.Leave a comment:

Simulating dogfights and carriers is fun
Too close for missiles, switching to guns!
simulating the flying of a commercial jet...

Makes sense, though I rarely simulate driving an E30 because I can do it relatively easy in real life. My thought was that with a rig like that he would likely be simulating something fun, like carrier landings or dogfighting.Because honestly, driving/racing and flying an airliner are not comparable. A competitive sort of environment is much more fun to simulate. Flight sim with a 777 would be like playing a driving game where the goal is to drive a city transit bus in straight lines.
Pretty much every airline pilot I know still loves airplanes, but they want nothing to do with simulating their job when they're not at work.Leave a comment:
