OFF TOPIC, But real funny!!!

 

followed by a flight pilot writes out an error report, then get

mechanics a service request, and determines which repair the error requires.

The form is a paper that the pilot complete and mechanics read and then repair the problem. The mechanics then write on the form's bottom part, what they have done for repairs and pilots then reads through the report to the next flight.

 

No one can say that the staff on the ground and the mechanics do not have a sense of humor.

 

Here are some real, registered bugs over the need for

maintenance and problems that Qantas pilots have written. And what solution maintenance staff have written.

 

 

P = Problem filed by the pilot.

S = Reply mechanic.

hard.

A: It's not installed any automatic landing system in this

aircraft.

 

P: Propeller no.2 may not get enough oil.

P: Something loose in cockpit.

P: Dead bugs on windshield.

S: Live bugs are restade available.

 

P: Autopilot provides a fall of 200 feet when the altitude is locked.

S: Can not reproduce problem on ground.

 

P: Sign of leak on right side landing gear.

A: The sign removed.

 

P: The sound of the intercom is incredibly high.

A: The sound of the intercom set to more believable level.

 

P: The lock for the throttle will make the throttle stick.

A: It is like it is there for ...

 

P: Suspect that there is a crack in the windshield.

S: Suspect you're right.

 

P: No engine no.3.

S: Engine found on right wing after brief search

 

P: The aircraft behaves funny.

A: The aircraft have been ordered to pull herself together, fly properly and

be

little more serious.

hilarious :lol: I especially like the one with "aircraft behaves funny" :megalol:

[Lumper]

Qantas has had several serious accidents, but no deaths since 1951 which was in a prop aircraft. They have never had any deaths in a jet aircraft. They had several problems in 2008-2010, especially with Airbus 380's.

Thanks for your help:)

[agrasyuk]

looks very good indeed.

those are 0.56" segments, right?

and i guess you will be displaying "H" for the X and "4+tail" for a Y in TACAN, right?

[linden]

Yes thats right, im still looking for a Alphanumeric for the X-Y but i can find one thats in the right size/color.

 

[Dachs]

Ouh, pretty lights :)

[linden]

Have replaced the lcd to black on green and the light to green on Gadroc´s CMSP panel, turns out real good.

 

[Combat2468]

Nice modding. Where did you get the LCD from and what power LED's are you using?

[linden]

Here is the lcd:

And the leds are (pure green) 3mm 525nm 7500mcd 3,6v 20mA 30gr clear.

[Combat2468]

Thanks for the info, those LED's work great. I've put a drop of white paint on top of them to lessen the dazzle. How are you exporting to the display?
