Preliminary Information... Official Press Release Coming
Today
The instructors and students of Embry-Riddle's CAPT (Commercial
Airline Pilot Training) Program are being informed today that their
program is a lame duck.
The NTSB has released the probable cause for an April 20, 2004
Cardinal (file images below) accident that took the lives of a
pilot and passenger. The NTSB determined the probable cause(s) of
this accident as "Improper maintenance by other maintenance
personnel, and the reinstallation of an unserviced magneto during
an engine overhaul, which resulted in the magneto malfunctioning, a
loss of engine power, and the airplane being ditched into the
water."
The NTSB has released a
preliminary report on the tragic accident that occurred last month
in which a mechanic was killed when he inexplicably stepped in
front of a 737 engine during a high-power run-up.
For Lantz B. Bricker, the chain of events that would end his
life began with running low on gas three days prior. Bricker made a
safe precautionary landing in a field owned by Darrell Stover near
Point Pleasant, WV, just across the Ohio River from Gallipolis, OH,
on Sunday. He had become concerned about low fuel.

than 400 projects. ACRP's purpose is to carry out applied research

addressed by other federal research programs.

are creating a large demand for air travel.

well beyond the ends of runways.

Corporation’s F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, or JSF, pilot
interface simulator is demonstrating the fighter’s
capabilities to some pilots here.
The pilot’s first warning came when the propeller began
slicing into the pavement, followed by a ridiculously short landing
slide. He’d forgotten to put the landing gear
down. Why didn’t he hear the horn?
"We take kids who have never been in a general aviation
airplane and take them up in private airplanes to give them a sense
that this is something that they might be able to do."
