Title: Re: Nice TWA 727 vid Post by LOU on Apr 13th, 2011 at 2:57pm
Yes indeed...very very TWA
TWA changed a lot of things in the cockpit from the way Boeing intended them. The placing of the emergency brake handle on the left side of the panel was one of the better changes. If you need to use the brake handle with your left hand, you can also use your right hand on the engine reverse levers. Much harder if the brake handle in on the right side of the panel. The 14 green call by the flight engineer is in reference to the F/E AUX panel on P-6 circuit breaker panel, that shows the position of the leading edge devices. There are seven panels on each wing - 3 Krugers and 4 slats. And you can hear how loud the trim wheel and nose gear were in the cockpit. It would have been a "Hat Trick" if the wipers were also being used as the noise was unbelievable. :o Oh, and how about the gear warning horn! Lou |
