They just posted on the local news out here that it was a student pilot. Not that they don't have hundreds of hours in a simulator, but I'm sure it'll stir up some shit.04 2.6 KB'd Cobra!

Originally posted by Couver View Post???? FI?? If he means fuel samples how would they know this early? Besides if they had that much bad gas I doubt it would have made it out of the chocks.

The final report on that was ugly to say the least....
Working for an airline we would sump the tanks every 2-4 days and a few drops per tank would come out per ~12,000 lbs of fuel.Last edited by 2011GT; 04-06-2012, 05:12 PM.

That's why I was wondering what FI is. If it is some sort of fuel inspection then that much bad JP-8 would have kept it in the chocks. If it was something that was part of the start up checks maybe. Like a feed tank not transferring or something along those lines. Still way to early to tell, will have to wait a few months on the report or the next maint buliten to check certains systems all of a sudden.
I know about every F/A-18 acronym known and FI is a new one to me.

Originally posted by Couver View PostAhhhh final checks.... That might could be it. Though I wonder what could have been missed that is that big. Mayhaps the fuel line in door 64 was leaking...

But I'm with you trying to understand what could have been missed that would result in something like this both after a walk-around\pre-flight and final checks via the Line\PC\QC folks.
If it's not something to do with the flight crew themselves, 10 to 1 its maintenance related.... God help the Maintenance Chief...
It's gonna be a long few weeks for him....

Being a ALSS guy though I'm glad to see the escape system worked as advertised.
And coming from a previous MOS where I worked on Turbine engines I'm feeling sorry for those guys if it was some kind of engine problem.

Yep it was from VMFAT-101 in a nutshell jet had issues and they told the nugget to bypass North Island for Miramar. There was more and a bunch of people got fired. Search old Navy Times they were pretty close. The final report never got wide distribution for obvious reasons. An initial clue in the next few weeks is watch message traffic for weird one-time inspections. That might give a hint what they think went wrong.
*** edit again. Downs Seat Sniffer or Pelican Raper?
