Μόλις διάβασα ένα περίεργο σχόλιο στο blog του καπετάνιου Dave. Αντιγράφω:
Γνωρίζει κανείς αν πρόκειται για πραγματικό περιστατικό? Πήγε κι ήρθε twice το 734 JMK-ATH με half load και gear down για να συνεχίσει έπειτα για DUB? Ρε τις μορφές... :twisted:
...charters from Mykonos in the Greek islands to Dublin one summer in 737 400s. The marketing guy didn't get his sums right when it came to runway length, end of runway mountain height, 30 degree centigrade nighttime temperature and the many tons of fuel required for the 4 and half hour flight.
An over eager despatcher loaded fuel without making a final check with our captain. We were simply too heavy to take off with a full load of passengers at that temperature with that mountain in front of us. There being no defueling capabaility we had to take half the passengers only as far as Athens with gear down and flaps out (which felt like driving over cobblestones) to be light enough to take off and land. We had to return to Mykonos for the other half of the passengers, touch down again in Athens, refuel, reload the first half of the passengers and then on to Dublin.
