Talk:LAPA Flight 3142

message: Anyone knows what the heck is a :es:Despachante de aeronaves? What about Comisario de a bordo? Thnx.Mariano(t/c) 10:44, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The article's description is...confusing.  The dictionary defines despachante as customs officer, and I was getting the sense of maybe mission control or something of the sort?  Gershonw 13:54, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Customs Officer is a "Despachante de Aduana". Despachante by itself means nothing, though it is usually used for Customs. Despachar means a lot of things, among them: dispatch, expedite, conclude and resolve. Perhaps we should ask for help at some WikiProject related to aviation... Mariano(t/c) 14:22, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds like a good idea.  Oh, and by mission control, I meant traffic control ;-) Gershonw 14:27, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I would guess despachante is an anglicism of dispatcher (like many aviation terms), and that article has a "see also" link to air traffic controller. It should be the former, but I'll ask a Latino today. - Draeco 15:21, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

text: My Latino co-workers concur, air traffic controller. - Draeco 01:27, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

text: Excuseme, I am the original writer of the Spanish article. In Spanish "el despachante" is the person that is in charge of the plane loading, distribution of load into the plane (people also), and the person in ground that signs the authorization for the departure of the plane. The text says "Según el despachante, al Comandante se lo veía muy bien y tan enérgico como de costumbre, al Copiloto también se lo veía bien. El Copiloto, la Comisario y las Auxiliares de a Bordo arribaron al avión en primer lugar." The "despachante" is an employee of the airline or the ground handling compañy, it is present in all flights. But I'm pretty sure it is not a customs officer nor an Air traffic controller, please note that HE declared that he SAW the pilot. Barcex 09:06, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

text: OK, it is "Aicraft dispatcher" the correct translation, see http://www.flightcontrolacademy.com/dispatch.htm  Barcex 09:07, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Here is another phrase that I am not sure what it means. Here is the context: "También se hizo un estudio especial sobre los filamentos de las lámparas pertenecientes a los indicadores de flaps de borde de ataque." I also saw it elsewhere. Gadig 13:09, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: "Flaps de borde de ataque" are commonly known in English as slats (in this article you have a good picture that shows what flaps and slats are). The phrase means than an special study was conducted on the filaments of lights (in the cockipt panels) indicating if the flaps/slats are extended or not. Why this study? Because if the lights are on when the plane crashes, the shock breaks the filaments (like if you shake a light bulb while turned on) but if the lights are off, the filaments are expected not to suffer any damage. That helps the investigators to determine if the light was on or off at the moment of the crash, then knowing if the flaps/slats where extended or not at that time. Barcex 14:28, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Wow, thanks for the explanation. You seem to be very familiar with the subject. Are you a pilot or something? :) Gadig 14:38, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I see that you translated Cámara Federal as Federal Congress, which looks as a legislative body while Cámara Federal is a short name for Cámara Federal de Apelaciones which is very very different from 'Congreso de la Nación Argentina which could be translated as Federal Congress.

replies: text: I believe that would be the Federal Court of Appeals, so I changed to that. Mariano(t/c) 10:04, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I believe that the modification is not an act of vandalism. It actually describes the underlying causes of the pilot error, it wasn't a simple negligence from the pilot it was the toxic corporate culture that made them negligent in following safety protocols as a accepted practice.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.191.222.206 (talk) 18:28, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
