Yikes! Only 72 passengers. Is US Airways going to be the next airline to file for bankruptcy?

did the get any compenstation like an up grade or did they get a cheesey voucher and werent given a thanks for flying US AIR
the best next thing is sue for mental distress

Brian a major problem with the USA is that people are lawsuit happy. Time to restrict these frivolous lawsuits. The passengers should be pleased that the safety procedures worked as they should, and everyone was safely evacuated. I am sure US Airways gave some compensation for their inconvenience, and accommodated all pax on a future flight.

Actually they did not give or offer any kind of compensation. I asked and Martina (the ticketing agent) said NO!

Interesting. A mix of A320 and 737 videos here. Which plane had the hiccup?

Aircraft N836AW had an “engine failure” message on it’s ECAM (Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring) display during takeoff roll. the captain aborted the takeoff and alerted the tower of the situation and and the fire department responded. No fire indication was given in the flight deck and so no on-board fire extinguishing system was activated. Since the engine had a failure it automatically shut down, the residual fuel in the combustion chamber was left to smolder causeing smoke to vent from the inlet and tailpipe. The fire department deployed a halon type extinguishing agent into the core and inlet of the engine in the effort of preventing a possible fire in the engine. This contaminated the engine with chemicals that are corrosive to the materials inside the engine, it also caused a cold shock to a rather hot engine, about 560c. The engine was replaced and the affected engine is now in quarantine awaiting further investigation.

naturally like your web-site however you have to take a look at the spelling on quite a few of your posts. Many of them are rife with spelling issues and I in finding it very troublesome to tell the truth then again I will definitely come again again.

I do not even understand how I finished up here, however I assumed this post used to be good. I do not understand who you are however definitely you’re going to a well-known blogger for those who are not already. Cheers!
