Bird strike[edit]

The recent crash of a C5 is suspect for bird intake (source unknown). Is this a possible flameout cause as well? Supaplex 22:42, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, a bird strike can cause a flameout and all sorts of other problems. However, a bird strike can also be uneventful. -- 222.154.182.23 12:39, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sources, References and citations needed[edit]

This (IMHO, useful) article is quite incomplete, specially in structure (more than content). AFAIK, the definition is true, and the issues with the early jet engines (as the Jumo 004 in the Me-262) were certainly real.
It just needs what has already been tagged: sources and citations. I'll try to add some structure and contents ASAP.

Deliberate flame out from air exhaustion practiced[edit]

I couldn't find a cite for it so didn't put it in, but military pilots who have high performance aircraft (fighters) are sent straight up until their air is exhausted. They restart the jet on the way down, well-down from where they flamed out. A long ways with silence and frost on the windows! Student7 (talk) 15:49, 23 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
