Default Anyone hear about a DAL engine failure on takeoff in ORD?

If you did or if it's in the paper tomorrow... scan & send me the newsarticle!

I haven't been able to find anything about it yet... but he sounded good on the phone...1st engine failure, but not 1st sim trained problem....scary (for me), but i know he has the training to do the job right...

Dough has 7 lives left...

I'm glad that everything turned out o.k. I will keep my eye on the newspapers over the next few days to see if I can find the article.

If you'll be in town for a few hours for lunch let me know...my office is about 2 miles from the airport. My treat!

Well that might present a problem then! The offer is open if you feel like getting out for an hour or so. If everyone else wants to come as well and want to pile into the family cruiser Ford Taurus they're more than welcome to come!

If not then next time! Stay safe out there!

That explains why my text messaging beeped me awake this morning. Sorry, my phone screen isn't big enough to make out what all that says, bro!

I flew with a captain last week who is hitting 60 this September. He said he's had 8 engine failures over his career. That's something to look forward to.

Did your training pretty much take over,like in the sims ? Or, was there any wasted seconds , such as in the " oh damn, daamn, daaaaamn " factor you always read about ?Glad it worked out.
