Slow night at KTYS
« on: April 03, 2025, 10:15:50 UTC »
Have you ever been looking for one thing, but find another?
Was trying to piece together the emergency below, and got to Tyson where I got side tracked with James Bond, Paint Jobs, and fishing
between a pilot and the controller at KTYS.

Below is what I was looking for originally, audio is the casual chat, enjoy.

(A Gojet Canadair CRJ-500 on behalf of United Airlines, registration N563GJ performing flight UA-4491 from Chicago O'Hare,IL to Columbia,SC (USA), was enroute at FL350 about 240nm northwest of Columbia when the crew initiated an emergency descent to 10,000 feet due to the loss of cabin pressure (average rate of descent about 4100 fpm). The aircraft continued to Columbia for a safe landing on runway 23 about 45 minutes after leaving FL350.

A passenger reported cabin pressure was lost, the passenger oxygen masks were released. A short time later smoke developed in the cabin - the passenger assumed from the oxygen generators - and dissipated until landing.
