Chao Lao Beach Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Re you image of the 320 above David, flying at sunrise sounds romantic right??? If you are east bound it is a night mare, but you find ways to insert all kind of objects into cracks and crevices to help block the sun out.

Chao Lao Beach Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Defiantly Kelowna, used to go into Vernon regularly back in the day. Amazing part of the world in BC and was challenging in a light turbo prop to be honest, lots of high rock around there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chao Lao Beach Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) That 732 is one of First Air's machines after a departure. It does not have a "gravel kit" installed. Some operators up north use their 732's off strip into gravel strips. Many are also configured as combies, about 1/3 is for for cargo in a separate compartment and pax down the back. In a perfect world they would be all freight, the best passengers are boxes. They are banned in oz due to noise and they use so much fuel anyway. Here are some examples. Note the nose wheel. http://www.flickriver.com/photos/jimbob_malone/5275927487/ http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2236/2487558266_8cb61579f1.jpg http://www.airplane-pictures.net/images/uploaded-images/2007-3/9/3168.jpg Edited March 28, 2013 by Chao Lao Beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is FAB861 CYFB -> CYOW. First Air has a habit of putting photos on their tail. This particular one is the night sky with aurora. While you are correct, and way ahead of me, about the lack of gravel kit, the usage of these particular engines is for use on gravel runways. Obviously they will not want to land this one on gravel in this configuration but on at least one of their B732 that we get here is equipped as such. And according to their in-flight magazine is the reason they still use them. In addition to the gravel kit on this Canadian North (Empress) B732 Combi, you can see the bottom of the large cargo clearly between the wing and the front exit door. Love your comment about the best passengers being freight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spud67 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) Following up on the best passengers line of thought.... when choosing a place to act up and become unruly, deciding on northern Canada is not a good place. Can you imagine, a guy gets on a plane in Vancouver flying to London Gatwick then gets his butt kicked off the plane after becoming unruly? In Iqaluit, Nunavut? On an island in the Arctic Ocean? I bet the -25 wake up was .... sobering. Flight Aware of TSC242 diverted last night ..or in case the link doesn't work, a screen capture. Soooo Bob .... how was your holiday?

Ricardo Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 On the passengers-as-freight point I recall while with TNT-Express once hearing, that we were looking at using our BAe146-freighters for QC (Quick-Change) to passenger-operations at week-ends, when the peak demand was. We were planning passenger-seating fixed to pallet-floors, loaded through the cargo door on a Friday-night/Saturday-morning after final freight-rotations were completed, and then locked into position, reversing the process on Sunday-nights/Monday-mornings. Hopefully the SLF would still have loaded in the normal manner, on foot. And I also recall seeing futuristic ideas (from Boeing ?), showing palletised-SLF boarding the module in the terminal, and the modules then being transferred complete to the waiting aircraft ! Which might well have sped-up turn-rounds, and enabled post-flight cleaning to have been done more-efficiently, in the terminal rather than cleaning the inside of the aircraft itself ?

Chao Lao Beach Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 On a high by-pass engine like on a 737-300, 400, 500....... etc it is to easy to suck in rocks thrown up into the intakes. I have never flown one of these but I have been told by a friend who did time up north on a 732 that their are limits on reverse while on gravel, I forget what they are though. See the buckets very aft on these donks. http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3141/3006539574_23dda382f2_z.jpg?zz=1 and here and here Remember these are -200's are in the 100 - 120 seat class, much smaller than the common 737 of today. What replaced them, well they are still operating into gravel in Canada, but as a general comment, they are being replace by the discontinued F100, (Foker) These are now a proven money maker in Australia. Many operators are scrambling to get more. Alliance Airlines goes into gravel with them daily and they are worming their way into Northern Canada. They are a strange one, high bypass donks with buckets. They also have a very strong under carriage and were well ahead of their time back in the day with simple glass cockpits. I have a soft spot for the F100.
