Wenn die 3000er CDU gut umgesetzt ist und es auch ne FSU gibt, damit man die IFIS Charts abrufen kann und dann auch noch nen Overlay machen kann und vielleicht noch LPV- Approaches möglich, dann hole ich mir das Teil.
Leider sehe ich aber ein UNS von Universal was aber nicht zum ProLine21 gehört und schon 2001 rausgekommen ist....Das macht dann wieder sehr skeptisch...

World Airways Immediately Shutting Down

Air Berlin ringt um ihre Zukunft

Zitat von DogStar

Warum leckt sich der Löwe die Eier ? weil er`s kann ! warum like ich meine eigenen Beiträge ... ? genau ... so gesehen hast Du`s perfekt getroffen.

hehe dann sind wir alle gespannt, wann du im Schichteulenthread über Rückenschmerzen klagen wirst und gleichzeitig nach ner Herpes- Salbe fragst......

Wenn ich Zensur brauch, geh ich zu den Freundlichen ... bye ...

Ich denke mal wenn man manuell fliegt ist auch der A/T aus, oder??

Das muss man einen Fachmann fragen, ich bin da überfragt....

Nun ob wirklich ein Schaden entstanden ist oder die Sensoren ausgelöst haben, wird noch festzustellen sein.

Interessant wäre auch zu wissen wissen, auf wieviel Stick- Time ein heutiger Linienpilot kommt. Bei den Herrschaften auf der Langstrecke wird dies bei 10000 Stunden vermutlich weniger wie 500 sein, der Rest wird über das MCP eingedreht werden. Ein Kurzstrecken- Kutscher bei Hansens ist handwerklich sicherlich besser als die Kollegen der Long Hauler.
Man darf auch nicht vergessen, dass der Flug auch nicht gerade kurz war, und angesichts des Wetters wird es auch schon ausgeruht eine Herausforderung sein. Man kann auch einen Nachteil des Sidesticks und der Airbus- Design- Philosophie herleiten, wenn man es will. Der Nebensitzer hat keinerlei Idee was der andere macht, welche Inputs er gibt.

Sein wir lieber froh, dass es nicht so ausgegangen ist, wie mit der MD 11 in Narita.....

Wenigstens machen sie es einem leicht....

Gemeldet hatte ich es ja schon dem Team, könnt ihr das bitte in die Real Aviation verschieben??

Front office changes
The TBM 900 was first revealed to AOPA Pilot in a February 12 visit to the TBM factory in Tarbes, France. There, an evaluation flight demonstrated not just the performance boost, but some major changes in the cockpit and aircraft systems as well.

Daher-Socata chief experimental test pilot Stephane Jacques was our minder and demonstration pilot for the flight, and there was a lot to see. Complaints about access to the front seats were fixed by narrowing the pilot seats, shortening the center console, and rounding its corners at floor level. Now it’s much easier to make a graceful entrance from the cabin. The forward pilot entry door, which used to be optional in previous models, is now standard.
The start sequence is easier, too. A new, 300-amp starter generator (up from prior 200-amp units) and an automatic switch from starter to generator function at 50-percent NG makes for faster starts with less workload. To start, just turn the overhead start switch On, wait for 13-percent NG, and move the single power lever into the low-idle position. After that, within 28 seconds the starter cuts out, and by 40 seconds ITT has stabilized and the start is complete. Battery starts on previous TBMs could take twice as long. By the way, a new GPU system lets you not only make assisted starts, but allows the power cart to charge the battery in case it’s depleted.

The TBM 900 has a single lever that incorporates both power- and condition-lever functions. Don’t look for a propeller control because none exists. The single lever rides in a lower-case “H”-shape gate system. The right side of the “H” controls the condition lever actions, so for a start you lift the lever and move it up and into the first detent to introduce fuel and put the engine into low idle. Move it forward once more and you’re in high idle. To operate it as a conventional power lever, move it to the left and into the run for calling up forward thrust, beta, and reverse-thrust functions.

Gone is the old propeller governing system, so don’t look for that little bump on the cowl that faired the old-style governor. The 900 uses mechanical stops to prevent prop overspeeds, and an electrical governor made by Czech manufacturer Jihostroj to keep rpm between 1,950 and 2,040. This means there’s but one prop setting, always kept very close to the 2,000 rpm redline—and thus no need to manually adjust the propeller. It’s all automatic, and all fail-safe. If there’s an electrical problem, the propeller continues to govern. If for some reason it begins to inadvertently feather, pulling the prop circuit breaker restores normal governing.

The most obvious cockpit improvement must certainly be the new control yokes. They’re both beefy and ergonomically correct, with seven switches and a recessed area that acts as a thumbrest. Customers complained about the clunky-looking old yokes, and Daher-Socata listened.

There are new landing gear, pressurization, and alternator systems as well. The landing gear lever illuminates when the hydraulic pump is running, and when the gear fail to extend. Pressurization is all automatic, and only requires entering the destination airport’s elevation—which can be called up automatically when
the destination is entered on the MFD’s flight plan page. Also new is a 100-amp standby generator.
In flight

We lined up on the Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrenees’ airport’s Runway 2, pushed up the power, and soon were at the 85-knot rotation speed. Seconds later we were in a 170-knot climb doing 1,700 feet per minute. We were held at 5,000 feet, then 8,000 feet during the climb, but we were still climbing at 400 fpm by the time we approached FL310, 20 minutes later. (The POH said we’d get there in 17 minutes.)

Up at FL310—the 900’s maximum operating altitude—we set torque at the top of the white carat on the torquemeter for a maximum cruise power setting and saw a 327-knot true airspeed while burning 60 gph in -54 degree Celsius (ISA -10) conditions. A glance at the G1000 multifunction display’s map page showed that we could continue cruising for three hours, 10 minutes. At a long-range cruise setting we cruised at 262 knots and fuel burn went down to 39 gallons per hour. Daher-Socata’s TBM factory is at the Tarbes airport in the far southwest of France, very near the Pyrenees Mountains. At this power setting the MFD’s range ring put our 45-minute reserve range well to the north of Scotland—and that was with a 30-knot headwind.

A descent to level off at FL290 gave us the best cruise speed at our near-ISA temperature conditions and our weight of 7,050 pounds (maximum takeoff weight is 7,394 pounds). At 100-percent torque we saw 330 knots on 65 gph. We’d been flying for 38 minutes at this point, but we still had a 1,000-nm range according to the G1000.
An emergency descent demonstration to 10,000 feet pegged the vertical velocity indicator past its 6,600-fpm limit, but the automatic pressurization kept the cabin in control by keeping its descent to 830 fpm.

Then it was time for some stalls. There was an approach to landing stall, which produced plenty of buffeting as a warning, but no tendency to drop off on a wing; same deal with departure stalls. Then Jacques demonstrated the sorts of aggressive stalls he’d performed during certification flight testing. To the tune of 40 degrees, up, up, up the nose went until an abrupt stall caused the left wing to start a drop. But Jacques showed there was still aileron control. He countered the rolloff with full opposite aileron and the airplane hung there with wings level—thanks, he said, to the stabilizing effect of the winglets.

Back at Tarbes we flew an ILS using 25-percent torque, 10 degrees of flaps, and gear down and full flaps at one dot above the glideslope. The result was a very stable 85-knot trip down the final approach course. There is the impression of being nose-low on short final, but it’s best to resist the temptation to flare too soon. Save that for the last 20 or so feet of altitude; go to idle thrust, hold the nose off, and you’ll see that the 900 can indeed make nice landings—even though some say the landing gear can make for some hard arrivals on occasion. Once the nosewheel settles to the runway, pull a gob of reverse thrust, apply brakes, and chances are you’ll stop in well under 1,000 feet. The POH said our ground roll distance that day would be 1,200 feet, but that’s without reverse thrust.

A new commitment

In 2009 French industrial conglomerate Daher bought a controlling interest in what was then EADS-Socata, the manufacturer of the TBM (and before that, a line of piston singles). The TBM 900 is the first airplane to be certified under the new ownership, and proof that Daher is as enthusiastic about building airplanes as Socata was.

For the past four years a team of 75 employees at the Tarbes facility has been working in secrecy on the TBM 900, under the “Century” project name. The team was fixated on product improvement, knew that the TBM was a good design, but also knew that unless they made it better the market would not tolerate any deficiencies, real or perceived. “That’s why we invested so heavily—even though it was the worst of economic times,” Chabbert said.

The investment seems to be paying off. At a customer meeting in March, Daher-Socata said orders for 10 TBM 900s were placed, sight unseen. Ditto 30 more orders by distributors convinced that the customer base would respond. That’s 40 orders—the same number of TBM 850s sold in all of 2013. The 900 is priced at $3.711 million.

At the factory, production of TBM 850s was stopped at serial number 684. From now on, the TBM 900 is the future of Daher-Socata’s airplane business unit, and things are looking up. When we left Tarbes, four TBM 900s were on the ramp and eight more were on the line. And the airplane had not yet been announced to the public.

Zitat von B777Fan

Andere Quellen sprechen nun von 4... Wenn schon die Zahlen nicht stimmen, was soll überhaupt stimmen

WIe kommen die Daten eigentlich an?
Normalerweise werden die über das VHF3 gesendet oder??
Und es wirft kein gutes Licht auf die Malaysian, wenn nach ein paar Tagen auffällt, wo die ganzen Behörden im Haus sind, die ganzen Unterlagen vom Flieger ausgewertet werden, das die Triebwerksdaten über den Zeitpunkt des Verschwindens gesendet wurden....Und auf die beteiligten Behörden wirft das noch ein schlechteres Licht.

Weiss man wie die Kurve aussah?? Sah sie aus wie ne Verfahrenskurve ( 80° in die eine und dann 260° in die andere Richtung) ??

Nun wenn ein Entführer darauf geachtet hätte, dan ok. Aber hätte der auch ne Auslösung vom ELT geblickt??

Von nem 7500er Squawk wurde bislang auch nix gesagt, oder habe ich was verpasst??

Mal kurz zwischendurch zur Terror- Theorie drei Fragen:

Gab es bislang irgendwelche Bekennerschreiben,- Mails, - Videos?
Eigentlich "lebt" ja der Terror von jener Art "Publicity", oder täusche ich mich?

Wenn dem so ist, müsste doch längst etwas vorliegen, denn das Entsetzen ( somit die Wirkung des Terrors ) ist ja am größten, je kürzer der Zeitraum zwischen der Tat und der Bekennen zur Tat ist, oder?

Wer sagt dass man nicht spekulieren darf??
