Aviation Accidents/Incidents / Re: UPS MD-11 Crashes on Takeoff From KSDF

« Last post by RonR on Today at 18:46:57 »

Update: there have been some questions raised in the aviation community that were asking why couldn't this plane climb out even with the loss of the #1 engine.  The MD-11 should have been able to climb on two engines despite the loss of the engine and the fire on the left wing.  This YouTube video seems to present a very plausible reason why they couldn't climb.  A close examination of the video from the takeoff roll suggests there was a compressor stall on the #3 engine as they were trying to rotate.  You can see a number of flashes that seem to support this possibility.  Captain Steve explains it all in detail and it certainly makes sense:



We'll just have to wait and see what the NTSB finds out.

After further investigation with the OP, this is the situation...

We recently updated our SSL/TLS certificates to comply with new security and certificate authority requirements. The new certificates use a newer root certificate that older iPads (on older iOS versions) and other legacy devices don’t recognize or trust. All internet web sites will have to do this.

Because there are older devices that can no longer be updated, they can’t get the newer SSL security roots it needs to connect to our servers. That’s why some apps or devices with ancient browsers stopped working. Unfortunately, there isn’t a safe way for us to downgrade security globally just for a handful of older devices.

Hope this helps explain things. It's an internet-wide issue and the overall situation with supporting legacy devices will become worse, not better.

Suggest you go into Settings and make sure the "Allow Background Playback" box  is checked. Hope this helps.

Pilot/Controller Forum / Helping people in the aviation industiry with their fitness

« Last post by Janthistle on November 08, 2025, 12:44:45 UTC »

I'm an ATCO and want to start a business helping people in the industry with their fitness. I personally really struggled to stay consistent with training, especially when I started shift work after my training and would love to pass on some of the things that worked for me.

If anyone wouldn't mind helping me out would you be able to answer these questions:

1) Do you struggle to stay in shape as an ATCO or Pilot?

2) If so, what stops you from keeping on top your fitness?

3) Is there anything that really worries you leading up to your medical checks?

4) What would your ideal physique be?

5) Why is it personally important for you to get in shape - was there anything that happened that made you want to change this area of your life?

In the last two,days I have not been able to connect to the feed servers on my old,ipad and live atc app. I can on other devices no issues. Has there been any change in the feed services in the last couple days? I can connect to the forum and other sites just not the feeds? Unavailable.
