Can't find a couple of items
Rob, I too am having trouble locating the auxiliary hydraulic pump. Despite your "I have found the auxiliary hydraulic pump - in the manual it is written "hyd." and not "hydraulic", which is why I completely missed it." I still can't find it I have searched the manual using "hyd.", but no luck. The nearest I could find is EMG HYD PUMP? Any more help appreciated... cheers chris

Checklist items vs actual aircraft
Gents, Enjoying the challenge of this immensely, I’m a big fan of the “old iron”. As such I endeavor to follow procedures as closely as possible. There are a few checklist items that I cannot correlate to the actual aircraft. i.e. I can’t find ‘em! From the checklist….. “Heater fuel switch……………………………..NORMAL (down)” “Heater, fuel, and ignition selector switches…..SYSTEM NO. 1 (down)” “Heater backfire warning lights………….OFF (Push to test)” I assume these refer to POH page 31, items 206 - 209 . Is that correct? (If so, I understand they are INOP as stated.) (I’m also unclear on what “SYSTEM NO. 1 (down)” refers to.) POH page 108 refers to Heater Backfire Warning Lights viz. “9.11.13. Heater Backfire Warning Lights — Three amber warning lights, mounted over the fuel control selector switches on the heater control panel, for the three airfoil anti-icing heaters illuminate when the respective heater backfires severely. The light(s) will remain on until the switch is reset on the ground.” POH page 31 picture.... can't see the amber warning lights.... Not modelled? Also from the checklist.... “Auxiliary hydraulic pump selector valve control lever…… BRAKE SYSTEM (forward)” Can I assume this refers to the Emergency Hydraulic controls located on the rear of the centre pedestal (below the Flap lever) ? Not complaining mind, but if all the above is the case then I can safely delete the heater references from my checklist. Thanks for a brilliant aircraft. cheers chris from oz

Air traffic controller 'joke' delays plane's landing
Completely agree with WR269 (last post). Summed it up nicely IMHO. And before you ask..... I have 35+ years as an ATC. chris from oz

Air traffic controller 'joke' delays plane's landing
hopskip/Trent... Sorry, I think you've completely missed the whole point of this thread. You point out.... "Apart from this stilly (sic) little incident where it was "A joke" It appals me that you see that placing an aircraft and pax in a potentially (note.. potentially) dangerous situation is no more than a "silly little incident" FYI, real world go-rounds are considerably more involved than flying from your desk with a few mouse clicks. Moreover, to compare a PA28 go round with that of a 777 is nonsense, and not helped by your egoistic "selfie " video.... As a 35+ year ATC, I can't believe a controller could be that stupid and irresponsible. There are more facts in Real Life than you can find on Google..... chris from oz
