Nice! It kind of looked like the pilot almost over rotated on touchdown. Well, it was a windy day there,huh?




Re: KLM's first E190 - Valoran - 05-12-2008

Was the first pass a go-around or just a little showboating? Nice looking airplane there. Are you going to be working these at all or are
you only KLM proper?




Re: KLM's first E190 - SkyAirWorld - 05-12-2008

I hope the first pass was just for bragging rights... but then if it was... why was the gear down?

190 is a gem to fly Smile Smile Smile Smile


Re: KLM's first E190 - Anastasios - 05-12-2008

To fly low speed and low altitude your gear must be down to prevent swarning and stuff.

This airplane will be used for KLM cityhopper, so I won't be flying on it. Right now KLM Cityhopper only has Fokker 50, -70 and, -100.
It will replace one of them.

And ofcourse this as just a flyby ;-)

Anastasios.

I have done flybys (in civillian airliners) previously and did not have the gear down and locked...we had the gear handle down but only the
bay doors were open gear itself had not even began to move...


Re: KLM's first E190 - Anastasios - 05-12-2008

If flaps are set beyond a certain point of angle /degrees you will have a gear warning or low altitude warning.

It is normal for a flybly to have your gear lowered.
