    Yes, I remember Dennis, he used to jump seat a lot on my flights when I was flying the Portland, Seattle, Atlanta flights L-1011 and A-300's about 25 years ago.

    Gentlemen, A colleague of mine sent me this link; he was alarmed that this flight took off and returned (rather early in the trip) twice in a row. Now I am concerned, as well. Anyone know anything about this airplane and the lad flying it? The word on the street is that the fellow serving as the ferry pilot has 800 total time and 23 hours multiengine time. Commander time? Well, he has a few hours now ... _http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N7846C_ (http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N7846C) Wing Commander Gordon ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

    According to AirNav, it is 2093 Nautical from Khwd to Phnl. I hope he had 430 gallons of fuel on board that would be 2924 lbs in fuel alone. What is the fuel burn of a 500 at economy cruse? I wonder if in his vast experience of 23 hours had he actually flown a economy cruse? Just some questions.

    Don: Did you know Dave Whitman or Curt Ross? I think they were training pilots. Curt was one of those hired as EAL spiraled into the ground in the late 80s. ___________________________ Deneal Schilmeister St. Louis - Cincinnati 1997 SL500 http://homepage.mac.com/deneals/SL500.htm -----Original Message----- From: owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Don Girod Sent: Sunday, June 17, 2007 7:41 PM Subject: Re: Commander-List: Eatern Airlines Yes, I remember Dennis, he used to jump seat a lot on my flights when I was flying the Portland, Seattle, Atlanta flights L-1011 and A-300's about 25 years ago.

    Subject: Lycoming GO480 RPM and Oil Pressure Problem
    To All, I recently experienced an inadvertent change in RPM on takeoff that caused my gearbox to chatter. I was at full throttle with prop set at high RPM and about 1500 feet down the runway when it happened. To late to abort so I adjusted the prop to a lower RPM to stop the chatter and to make the engine drive the prop again. With enough altitude to go around and land, I put the nose down and tried to adjust the prop again and it started to chatter again. After the adjustment, it stopped. After landing and coming to a complete stop, I ran it up to 3200 RPM and the gearbox started to chatter and the RPM dropped to about 2900 RPM. I shut it down and removed the prop governor and sent it for overhaul. After overhaul and reinstallation I ran it up to 3200 RPM and again it dropped by itself to about 2900 RPM. The only other thing different in the performance of the airplane recently is that the oil pressure seems to be getting lower. It has run at 60 PSI in cruise for the past 15 years and now with the oil temp at 187 degrees F the oil pressure is showing about 55 PSI. At 3200 RPM the oil pressure is at 67 PSI which should be more than enough pressure to run the prop, but the RPM keeps dropping without me making any adjustment. The prop is a Hartzell HC-A3MVF-2A and it was disassembled, inspected, serviced and reassembled by a prop shop in November of 04. Has anyone else had a similar experience with RPM or oil pressure on this type of engine? The engine has 1200 hours SMOH. Any comments would be appreciated. Paul W

    Deneal; The names don't ring a bell as I was in ATL not MIA. Also in the time frame you mention, I was probably walking a picket line, not talking to Frank and Frank and their associates. Its a shame we couldn't have stopped it then, maybe could have also saved the retirements of Delta, United, U.S. Air and Northwest. Maybe the hand writing was already on the wall and we couldn't read it, in hind sight. Sure did ruin a lot of good careers.
