The crew's failure to recognize the activation of the stick shaker as a warning of imminent entrance to the stall, and the failure of the crew to execute the procedures for recovery from the onset of loss of control. A pitottube measures fluid flow velocity. [3] The FAA research had also revealed that the situation also led to multiple other contradictory warning sounds and warning lights that increased the demands on the pilot to fly the plane. Retrieved 27 August 2014. The ASI measures the pressure differential between static pressure from the static port, and total pressure from the pitot tube. Several commercial airline disasters have been traced to a failure of the pitot-static system. The captain was Ahmet Erdem (61), with 24,750 flight hours of experience (including 1,875 hours on the Boeing 757). Behind Closed Doors.

The co-pilot and relief pilot both seemed to recognize the approaching stall and tried to tell the captain, but did not intervene directly, possibly out of deference to the captain's age and experience. The FAA asked Boeing to change some of those warnings, as well as add a new warning to tell both pilots that their instruments disagree, add the ability for the pilots to silence troublesome alarms, and to modify the system so that the pilots can choose which pitot tube the autopilot uses for airspeed readings. It was originally planned to resume flight operations in the following year. On 3 January 2004, the Boeing 737-300 that was operating the route crashed into the Red Sea shortly after takeoff from Sharm El Sheikh International Airport, killing all 135 passengers, most of whom were French tourists, and all thirteen crew members. 1996 plane crash off the coast of the Dominican Republic. you may level off, altitude okay, I am selecting the altitude hold sir, thrust levers, thrust thrust thrust thrust, thrust, don't pull back, don't pull back, don't pullback, don't pull back, ((sink rate whoop whoop pull up warning starts and continues until the end)).

The autopilot, which was taking its air speed information from the same equipment that was providing faulty readings to the captain's ASI, increased the pitch-up attitude and reduced power to lower the plane's airspeed. After the flight voice recorder revealed that the co-pilot and a third pilot on the flight deck had made relatively subtle suggestions to the pilot once the stick-shaker warning commenced that he must deal with the fact that the plane was still in a speed-draining nose-up attitude, protocols and training were reinforced to establish a greater willingness of junior flight-deck staff to be more forceful in similar situations. All 176 passengers and 13 crew members died on impact. As a result, Birgenair suspended all flights on March 8, 1996. Birgenair Flight 301 was a flight chartered by Turkish-managed Birgenair partner Alas Nacionales from Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic to Frankfurt, Germany, via Gander, Canada, and Berlin, Germany. Birgenair was founded in 1988 and began flight operations in August 1989 with a Douglas DC-8-61. [2] The aircraft initially came on special charter flights for Turkish guest workers. Results from a number of simulations with experienced pilots found that the combination of the overspeed warning horn and underspeed stick shaker while in flight was an overly confusing contradictory set of messages for many pilots; the FAA issued a directive that pilot training would now include a blocked pitot tube scenario. While climbing through 4700ft the captain's ASI read 350kts (real speed was about 220kts); this resulted in an autopilot/autothrottle reaction to increase the pitch-up attitude and a power reduction in order to lower the airspeed. Investigations later showed that the plane was actually travelling at 220 knots (410km/h; 250mph) at the time of the accident. Aircraft upset is a dangerous condition in aircraft operations in which the flight attitude or airspeed of an aircraft is outside the normal bounds of operation for which it is designed.
