1 The Accident as a Situational example

You are the captain of a twin-jet on a 35-minute flight leaving in the late afternoon. It is the crew’s fourth and last leg of a journey that started in mid-morning. The automatic terminal information service (ATIS) at the destination indicates scattered clouds at 5,000 ft, fair visibility in haze, wind 150 at 8 kt. Air traffic control (ATC) has cleared you to cruise altitude and to expect Runway 18R at the destination.
