Meditation 99 “Life is a Dream.” Meditation 99: Life is a Dream Metaphors draw two unlikely suspects together in an illuminating way. The metaphor “Achilles is a lion” is not literally true, unless I have a lion named “Achilles.” Yet it draws attention to the courage and strength of the hero with a punch that straight prose lacks.
“X is brave and strong” applies to many people. The metaphor distinguishes Achilles from others who are also brave and strong. Metaphors make readers think about the deeper identity that underlies surface differences. “Life is a dream” is a well known metaphor. At this point, we might ask why “Life is a Dream” has captured so much attention over the years? Another way I have resisted the life/dream metaphor is by rejecting mysticism as not sufficiently rational. After coming to these dark reflections, I found a question to move forward. First of all, a dream is not illusory on its own terms.
From this standpoint, there is a deep identity between dreams and waking life. Airplane Geeks Podcast - Aviation Podcast. Flight Controls - General - AirSimmer Support. 2.3.4 Speedbrake Control Speedbrake function is achieved by spoilers 2, 3 and 4. The pilot controls the speedbrakes using the speedbrake lever. Speedbrake is inhibited if: - Both SEC 1 and SEC 3 fail - An elevator has a fault (in this case, only spoilers 3 and 4 are inhibited) - Angle-of-attack protection is active - Flaps are in CONF FULL (A320 and A319), or CONF 3 (A321). This does not apply to the A318. - Thrust Levers are above MCT position - Alpha Floor activation When these conditions occur when the speedbrakes are extended, they are automatically retracted and stay retracted until the condition(s) disappears and the pilot resets the speedbrake lever.
Note - If a speedbrake on one wing fails, the symmetric speedbrake on the other wing is inhibited. - For maintenance, the speedbrake lever will also extend number 1 spoilers on the ground. Ground Spoiler Control All spoilers (1 through 5) are used for the ground spoiler function.

Biggles Software can only supply FCOM and AOM-based software to Aircraft Operators and TRTOs, and to pilots who are currently operating the aircraft type. To ensure better compliance with manufacturer Copyright, Confidentiality and Licensing requirements - whilst respecting your data protection and confidentiality - Biggles Software is developing a more robust method of determining individual eligibility.
It will no longer be possible to 'self-certify' eligibility. This will probably require individuals to complete some form of application stating which airline they work for and in what capacity, etc, and to provide documentary evidence of which FCOM or AOM is applicable, its revision status and date of issue, etc. It is hoped that it will not take too long to develop a manageable, compliant process but, until then, safe flying!
Update: A compliant process has now been agreed and is in the development stage. Aircraft. Boeing blogs. Something I talked a lot about in my previous role as Customers Leader for the 747-8 program was the replacement cycle for passenger airplanes in the 400-500 seat category. And since earlier here in the blog we talked about the timing for 200-400 seat airplanes, I figured it makes sense to continue the story with the market for the larger twin-aisles. For many years, the 747 was the only long-range airplane. As a result, many 747s were ordered for their range capability, rather than their seating capacity. At the time, no other long-range choices were available. Basically, before 1993, the only option for long-haul was the 747, regardless of what the passenger demand happened to be on a route.
Today there are a number of types of commercial jetliners that can fly long-haul routes - and they can do it efficiently at smaller seat-counts than the 747. Consequently, the near-term demand for growth of 747-and-larger size passenger airplanes is limited. Boeing 737 Management Reference Guide.

Global Realities Require Local Action March 28, 2014 - Hundreds of pilots from around the world convened this week at the 4th annual Global Pilots Symposium not just to discuss the common challenges of all airline pilots, but also to develop a plan of action and commit to executing on that plan.
Their urgent, collective resolve was underscored by keynote speaker Capt. Don Marcus, international president of the International Organization of Masters, Mates & Pilots (MM&P), who retold the harrowing tale of the decimation of the U.S. maritime industry due to the flag of convenience system.

" — Leonardo da Vinci, English translation by Edward McCurdy, Leonardo Da Vunci's Note-books. "Thousands of volumes have been written about aviation, but we do not automatically have thousands of true and special friends in their authors. That rare writer who comes alive on a page does it by giving of himself, by writing of meanings, and not just of fact or of things that have happened to him.
The writers of flight who have done this are usually found together in a special section on private bookshelves. " — Richard Bach, 'The Pleasure of Their Company,' in Flying magazine, April 1968. "Or like a poet woo the Moon,Riding an armchair for my steed,And with a flashing pen harpoonTerrific metaphors of speed. " — Roy Campbell, The Festivals of Flight, 1930.
