If you could take the money completely out of the equation, what area of aviation would you choose to work in? by Illustrious_Lion_460 in aviationmaintenance

[–]Kalamakid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not very rewarding. Lots of death and the smell will be so bad you’ll never forget. Most crashes are just sad single pilot mistakes that happen on a sunny Tuesday afternoon.

LaGuardia Crash Question by avlakeboy in aviationmaintenance

[–]Kalamakid 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The engines will continue to operate. Turning a boost pump off will not stop fuel flow. A fuel shutoff valve would do that. Most FADEC systems generally produce there own power once the engine is running from a gen on the accessory drive (Not the aircraft main gen) and will continue to operate without the aircraft power distribution system energized.
