Oga there are rules about dumping fuel. First you want to make sure what the problem is, then you call an emergency and tap to return to port. Then you have to find a suitable place to dump. All these take time, time you may not have if it is a critical emergency.

I hope no pilot will dump ten thousand gallons of highly flammable ATK while you are crawling to work on Third Mainland bridge traffic. There are rules man... rules.

The 737 is not designed to dump fuel Mr. Man and don't teach me about aviation rules.

GoldHorse:
Una well so Air Peace?! Who una Wan take do confirmation?

No mind them, they are thinking only about the money, aircraft that experienced pilots and international pilots union have complained about it nose diving during takeoff due to faulty readings.

I think I read a guy testimony about one of airpeace aircraft having fault mid-air enroute from Lagos to IMO , how they survived when the pilot turned back to get the aircraft replaced. They should do the needful also by grounding any Boeing 737 in their fleet till further notice. Safety first...safety always

Smily202:
Boeing is already responding to the problem of the aircraft, so there is no need to cancel what they have already orderd. If thier is any problem the grounded ones and the news ones will be fixed.

Responding very late, they hid the problem with the aircraft for business reasons

Somebori somewhere has so much to lose if they should cancel d order...
They have inflated d price n shared d money..
So how u expect dem to cancel it...
Wicked people... Na plane go dey kill dem one by one n tjeirt children wey dem go put for abroad n making masses suffer

If you like your life. Pls avoid air peace like a plague. They recently had twice about to crash issues.

Reference:


I think this issue has been addressed many times over the years and the response has been constant. There just isn't a material in existence from which a big enough parachute(s) to cushion the fall of a 300 ton airplane moving with any sort of momentum. Such will be too big to carry and too complicated to deploy safely.

For the same reasons had parachutes for individual passengers been discarded as an unworkable idea. Too many people, too complicated a routine and moreover no two air crashes/incidents are ever the same. It is one thing to have an aircraft run out of fuel and slowly drift to peril over several hours and it is another for an instantaneous and catastrophic failure to the airframe to occur giving little chance of escape.

The world has come to accept that is it better to build better, more reliable and safer aircraft than to dwell on escape systems. Theyhave come to accept the random nature of accidents that no one escape system will work in all cases and if an airplane is in serious distress....you are essentially... done.

You are right.i read it on a science site. The whole idea is so complicated but what if the aircraft was built in such a way that it stores higly pressurised packets of air all around the plane and then depending on which direction the plane is falling or should I say if the plane is falling to the ground just about a few feet or meters this packes of air are release with such force such that it just counteracts all the speed of the fall there by making the plane hit the ground with less force. Think of it as having a engine that provides thrust downwards. I hope you get what am trying to say. Might seem wierd but I feel it may be feasible.

shut up your mouth... read to understand

From the comments here it is obvious that nobody read thru the publication. Nigerians have to learn how to read and understand before reacting to stuffs. illiterates everywhere

Nice response man some Nigerians don't like reading they just want to be the first to comment as if there is a price, no wonder the saying 'the best place to hide something from an African is in a book'.

Check my signature

Who still flies locally in Nigeria? O.Y.O. is that person's case and may s/he not R.I.P. prematurely.

Una sabi pass China wey ban their own carriers abi...Nigerian love unnecessary risk

awelekiti:
The model way don record multiple crash history since 2016 abi? Okay ooh. Instead of learning from others' failures, Nigerians prefer making same mistakes and then, learn afterwards What an amazing country!

Stopwatch peddling lies....The first crash of this model was recorded 5 months ago in Indonesia. This is the second crash.

bankylan:

did I mention a particular date the first one crashed? When was the model released into the aviation market ? That's how you guys fail woefully. Olodo ragbada. Go Google the meaning of multiple mentioned in my comment and tell me what it means and where multiple numbers start from.

Guyman02:

Dem dey form professionals instead make them think with their heads....

Another angle..... They could have over bloated the cost of the aircrafts.... So if the contract was canceled to refund go be gbege!

Thank God I don't fly local flights
even Asia stopped the order of the particular model after their encounter last year and the one that happened in Ethiopia yesterday

Obviously the worlds' approach is still not good enough. Individual parachutes still makes sense even if few people can be saved.

Na una family and village people una go use the aircraft for...

This clown is saying balderdash, even technology advance country is suspending the service of this particular aircraft and this one is saying another thing; typical Nigeria bravado!!!

sexiestharam:
What?Air Peace really said this?They don't care about human lives but their business? It is time for all Nigerians to boycott this airline!

I agree...countries that have better safety precautions, better Engineers and so on have grounded this particular model of plane our people want to use human life to test Run..I hate seeing body bags of people just like that of yesterday..

when china and Canada had suspended their order till further notice, also Grounded all their 737-MAX.
They should consider suspending it for now, i think BOEING doesn't get the automated anti-stall software in Max 8 model right at all.

daddytime:
Na una family and village people una go use the aircraft for...

Any time wey I wan fly now I go first dey ask dem which aircraft dem wan use, then I go research on am before I proceed.

No be my body una wan take stone ground from up up...

God forbid..

I think one should be writing ones will before boarding incase one dies.

Don't blame Air Peace.
Don't we have Aviation ministry.
Don't we have a government.


Who is Air Peace to say no, when the government says yes to the grounding of all B 737 Aircraft.

Larryslim:
People are very deluded here, the fleets have not been delivered to Air peace, so they can't ground what they don't have.
How do you cancel something that you have not even received?
People are always quick to spew rubbish!

Lol...and how do U cancel what you have already received?
What pple are trying to say is that they should have just kept quiet and not said anything.
Again, outright cancellation would be a hasty action, rather, the order may just be played on hold pending the investigation. However, I even understand that there are many orders that have been placed and Air peace may not be top on the list.

Smily202:
Boeing is already responding to the problem of the aircraft, so there is no need to cancel what they have already orderd. If thier is any problem the grounded ones and the news ones will be fixed.

Abeg they should put you in one of those planes to test if the problems have been fixed.

Nonsense human being.

How many times do you fly in a year?

*Flash*

ON AIR CRAFT.

Please always go to www.checkmytrip.com and insert your booking reference. You will be able to see the aircraft make and model for your trip. If it is Boeing 737-800MAX pls ask your agent to change this to another aircraft or possibly another carrier. Please be wise. Share until this new series is withdrawn by Boeing from our skies.

This is what Countries that consider lives more important than profit will be doing

The P.R.O of Air peace directive should be, They are reviewing their purchase of the said Boing Model to certify more Air worthiness of these model.

Federal Government Should also put a directive for a complete halt of purchase of any second hand used model of Boeing 737 with immediate effect.

Most Nigerians don't know how to read and understand.

They are not related. Peace Mass Transit is heavenly connected.
