QUESTION: Have you guys had ever been in a dangerous position before and how did you handle it? ANSWER from Terry Rager on 16 October 1995: Thank you for question. The "most" dangerous situation I have experienced in the KAO would have to be the loss of an engine right after takeoff. The #4 engine seized due to a mechanical failure at 500 ft. above the ground. While this may sound "dangerous", the flight crew is very well train to handle problems exactly like that one. We continually go through simulator and flight training practicing these types of failures so we will be prepared if the situation arises. Thank you again!! Terry Rager, Project Pilot, KAO
