C-17 4-engine flameout/SIB/FEB questions in here
2/3 are out Some things right, some things wrong...just like every flight Boldface (ignition orride & extend the RAT) was done immediately. One of the next steps was to turn the engine start switch off (cuts fuel), which I didn't want to do incase the engine was about to light off. My sense of time was very skewed, but the freefall lasted for several minutes. When we got power back, it looked like all 4 were online (all 4 EPRs appeared to be at idle). After about a minute, the EPR tapes on 1 & 4 disappeared, and the EGT started rising. We were on short final so elected to worry about it on the ground. On landing rollout, tower indicated 2 of our engines appeared to be on fire (no fire lights inside). I confirmed what he said, and T-handled/blew the bottles on 1&4. BCMR, and yes I had counsel. I also wrote letters to my congressman/senator, but nothing happened.

just got back from a month-long vacation flying Space A (mostly)...a few tidbits for those looking to do it in the future... - As others have said, sign up for SMS. Seriously. The comm between TACC/the crew/the pax terminal is lacking, and it saved my ass a couple times. - As soon as you get leave, send a shotgun email to every pax terminal you can think of (google it for the list). The earlier, the better. - Get an AF lodging account to reserve rooms online; there were a couple instances where a phone call yielded no results but online did - Cross-check Pax terminal facebook pages and SMS, and set bingo dates. Your hotel/food/car costs may eventually exceed commercial air tickets. Good luck...you get what you pay for- C-17 lands short at Dover
