Air Canada flight diverted after Pilot screams for help
"The cockpit door opens and there is the pilot and he starts screaming and holding onto the airline attendant saying 'Help me, help me,'" Brown said. "I am seeing the pilot saying 'help me,' I am a little concerned. "He was screaming 'get me off the plane' -- you don't want to hear that. "He looked like he was insane, grey, dead eyes." Here is a track for the flight. I don't know if this data is correct because it shows that… (www.torontosun.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Looking at the data It shows the acft at 1819 hrs. at 37000ft. It then begins a gradual descent to 600 ft. at 1845 hrs. At 1847 hrs. he is back to 37000 ft. One hell of a rate of climb. I guess the data is screwed.
Skittles.....
Something is wrong with the data. The sudden plunge should have has a large increase in speed. The return to altitude looks like 5 or 6 g's anyhow. Everyone would have passed out.
Souds like a full outorotation recovery , but with a ceased wing . Numbers don't jive .
Sounds like a panic attack at 37000 personal problems maybe a contributing factor to this icendent as to the planes attitude something is not right with data .
In looking at the chart, it seems that the incident alledgedly occured over an approximate 30 min time period. If the pilot relied solely on the chart, anyone would conceivably panic. Chart also shows that speed dropped to 0kts. That is not likely since there would have to be forward movement even if the aircraft was descending - thus 0 not possible. So I would tentatively conclude that it was an instrument failure or temporary malfunction.
