Summary 265 Max talks about Precipitation Static, sometimes called p-static. P-static is a phenomenon that can affect aircraft in flight, particularly in areas of high humidity or where there is precipitation. It is a form of electrostatic discharge that can cause interference with an aircraft's communication and navigation systems. Static electricity is created by air friction as an aircraft flies, and when the electric charge accumulates sufficiently to discharge, radio interference is generated.

Summary 264 Max reads listener letters and feedback. An FAA employee recommends pilots adopt the newer phraseology for declaring an emergency, which is "requesting priority handling." He believes pilots are reluctant to declare an emergency, as it suggests that what went wrong was their fault. The newer phraseology results in the same service provided by ATC; they'll still ask for souls on board, and fuel remaining, and you can still deviate as needed, but you don't need to say the words "I'm declaring an emergency."

Summary 262 Max talks with Tom Turner about an ATSB study showing that partial power loss is 3X more likely than complete engine failure. It also shows that that serious injury or death occurred more frequently in partial power loss versus complete engine failures. With full power or no power, pilots know what to do. But the uncertainty of partial power loss makes it harder for pilots to decide what to do.
