Is it possible for pilots to erase recordings in a cvr?

Question:


Answers:

Is it true that more US aircrew were lost in the B-17 bombers during WW than all other aircraft put together?

Yes on the Airbus A318/19/20/21. The following conditions must be met:
The aircraft is on the ground, and
The parking brake is on

Pressing the CVR ERASE pb for 2 seconds will then erase the tape.

How do we know the age of the aeroplane that about to fly with?


The Airbus CVR records the previous 2 hours.

Generally, are airplanes louder during landing or takeoff?


Of course doing so would also erase your job and maybe also your licence!

What's the difference in throttle, speed, and approach with a short field landing than a usual approach.?

CVR records the 30 min continuous acoustic information. The data automatically overwritten after 30 min of time. Pilot cannot erase it.

Turbulance? how bad is it??

The above answer is correct, but the pilots could pull the circuit breaker for the CVR to prevent it from recording.

Was there any stealth aircraft in the Navy before the F-35?

no we cannot directly access the CVR in any way, and yes we could pull the cricut breaker for it, but i would surely be dismissed and have all my licenses revoked

can you go right into the air force as a pilot with no training or license?

................... NOW IN THE DIGITAL VERSION THE DURATION IS VERY LONG ............... NOT 30 MIN. ANY MORE .............

If u get a degree b4 goin to flying school will they think ur 2 qualified and no take u?

No, never. this captures emergency transmission to ATC so if the plane crashes they can determine what happened. It would not be good if it got erased.

Modern aircraft:?

For your Quation answer is yes. But you have to meet the following conditions.Aircraft is on ground and Parking brake is on also it depending airlines OPM,Pulling the circuit breaker is prohibited in the OPM in all airlines
A Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) is a flight recorder used to record the audio environment in the flightdeck of an aircraft for the purpose of investigation of accidents and incidents. This is typically achieved by recording the signals of the microphones and earphones of the pilots headsets and of an area microphone in the roof of the cockpit.

Why no orders for the pax version of 747-8?


It is at present (2005) a requirement that the recording duration is a minimum of 30 minutes, but it is recommended that it should be 2 hours.

How does the fuel efficiency of a jet engine compare to that of an internal combustion engine?


A standard CVR is capable of recording 4 channels of audio data for a period of 2 hours. The original requirement was for a CVR to record for 30 minutes, but this has been found to be insufficient in many cases, significant parts of the audio data needed for a subsequent investigation having occurred more than 30 minutes before the end of the recording.

How do I calculate the thrust to weight ratio of an airliner?


The earliest CVRs used analog wire recording, later replaced by analog magnetic tape. Some of the tape units used two reels, with the tape automatically reversing at each end. Other units used a single reel, with the tape spliced into a continuous loop, much as in an 8-track cartridge. The tape would circulate and old audio information would be overwritten every 30 minutes. Recovery of sound from magnetic tape often proves difficult if the recorder is recovered from water and its housing has been breached. Thus, the latest designs employ solid-state memory and use digital recording techniques, making them much more resistant to shock, vibration and moisture. With the reduced power requirements of solid-state recorders, it is now practical to incorporate a battery in the units, so that recording can continue until flight termination, even if the aircraft electrical system fails.

what kind of plane is this?


Like the flight data recorder (FDR), the CVR is typically mounted in the empennage of an airplane to maximize the likelihood of its survival in a crash.

What Do you think?


The heavy metal band Rammstein's album Reise, Reise is made to look like a CVR; it also includes a recording from a crash.

Where can i get this engine?

Not for the current trip.
