Connie:
I got a guy here named Werner from the FRA. Now, I'm inclined to defer to your judgment here, but he... Frank:
All right, put him on. We could use all the help we can get. Connie:
[yielding her chair to Werner]
Just press this and hold to talk. Inspector Werner:
[sitting down]
Uh, it's about slowing down 777 once you've tied on. I-I know conventional wisdom says to just gun it in the opposite direction. But you'll have a better shot alternating full throttle with dynamic braking. Frank:
Yeah, but we can't afford to lose counterthrust. Inspector Werner:
Well, what you'll lose in counterthrust, you'll compensate for in tractive force. Frank:
Are you sure about that? Inspector Werner:
Well, it's more of a hunch based on some quick calculations. Frank:
It's a hunch. I'm 70 miles an hour and he's giving us a hunch. Okay, thank you. Uh, put Connie back on, please. Connie:
It's me, Frank. Frank:
Yeah, Connie, this guy know what he's talking about? Connie:
Uh... in a perfect world, yes. I'd say yes. Frank:
In a perfect world, okay

00:00:24.061 --> 00:00:27.044
alternating full throttle with dynamic braking
00:00:27.053 --> 00:00:29.086

00:00:30.028 --> 00:00:32.007
What you'll lose in counterthrust
00:00:32.016 --> 00:00:33.009
you'll compensate for in tractive force
00:00:34.037 --> 00:00:35.061
Are you sure about that
00:00:38.071 --> 00:00:41.042
