Pirep or pro-pilot error?
« on: January 05, 2007, 01:34:58 pm »
During my last pro-pilot flight everthing went fine, pirep reported no errors., but when pirep submitted pro pilot gave me penalty points for high G force.
Could anybody explain this situation.

Thanks
Ken

you may have pulled the plane up with a few Gs or down with negative Gs, thats the most likely explanaition, i wont know if you did do it though

It comes from when trying to manouver a comercial aircraft like a F-16.
To be serious, when filing the Pirep you send the Log data like flight time and cruise altitude etc to the database for the Pireps wich says data is ok. Then the Propilot acars info is sendt to diffrent a database wich handels the propilt system. The two things indicate different part of the system.

Ken
  I have found that you can get these penalties when landing, if the landing speed is too high and you allow the nose to drop quickly you will get a load factor penalty, these penalties will not appear on your PIREP. I do not know what aircraft you were flying, but try landing at a slower speed and hold the nose up slightly, when you close the throttle the nose will come down slowly. Hope this helps.

Thanks to all for your imput, but on looking at the graph, 20 mins. into flight the aircraft apparently dived from 20000 to 2500 then recovered back to 20000 , this happened again from 10000 to 2500, recovering back to 10000 . the aircraft was a Dornier on a short 1 hour flight so I never left the cockpit, strange to say the least.

thanks again
Ken

Just a short note, the descent graph shows a descent time of -3 minutes,  that can't be right. ah well
