Two quick questions for HulaMom or any other pilot in here in the know...
1) can a Boeing 777-200ER be flown, if absolutely necessary, by a single pilot (no engineer, no copilot to help)?
2) Can a black box be removed from an airplane and put into another airplane without too much hassle? Or is that pretty involved?
1. Yes, if necessary.
2. Hubby says it would take one or two mechanics several hours to remove and move a black box to another aircraft. Hundreds of parameters would need to be reset. This would have to be done on the ground, obviously, and he has never heard of it being done.
