The autothrottle retracted the left thrust lever-did they make it?
In this episode, we follow the final minutes of Sriwijaya Air Flight 182 and the maintenance and crew history that led up to them. The episode lays out the sequence of events, personnel records, and maintenance entries that preceded the emergency and asks whether the crew could stop what was unfolding.
Person: Captain Afwan, 54, 17,904 total hours, 9,023 on the 737
Person: First Officer Diego Mamahit, 34, 5,107 total hours, 4,957 on the 737
Date: January 9, 2021
Aircraft: Boeing 737-500 registration PK-CLC ("Citra"), 26 years old, 62,983 flight hours
Event: Left thrust lever retracted by autothrottle during level-off at ~11,000 ft
- The aircraft had been grounded nine months during the COVID-19 pandemic and returned to service December 19, 2020.
- An autothrottle fault was logged on January 3 and 4; technicians cleaned connectors, replaced a Mach/airspeed indicator, and on January 5 marked the issue "Fixed."
- Flight 182 pushed back at 14:36, climbed normally, and was leveling off under ATC instruction when the left thrust lever moved without pilot input.
- The flight crew had extensive experience between them-over 23,000 combined hours-with both pilots holding large 737 time totals and recent training records.
- What followed after the autothrottle retraction unfolded in less than sixty seconds while controllers and crew were managing a routine short-haul leg across the Java Sea.
