    A United Boeing 767-300, performing flight UA-108 from Washington Dulles, DC (USA) to Munich (Germany), was enroute at FL330 about 30nm southeast of Providence, RI (USA) when the crew declared emergency reporting a fuel leak and requested dump some fuel to return to Washington Dulles.
    The aircraft landed safely in Washington about 80 minutes after declaring an emergency.

    IMPORTANT:
    This video is all about education. It's designed to give aspiring pilots and air traffic controllers a taste of real-world situations through example scenarios and helpful info. But that's not all! Current pilots and controllers can also benefit by listening to real radio communications from around the globe. This helps them stay sharp and think about how they might handle similar situations.
    To create these videos, I keep my ear to the ground on major aviation news and events. I check the dates and time zones to see if I can find recordings of the radio conversations. Then, I become a bit of a broken record myself, listening to them repeatedly to create subtitles and identify key moments. Finally, I whip up some animations (or grab them from ADS-B websites) and combine them into a neat package.

    • @wtfudc
      @wtfudc 16 днів тому +5

      It was a trans Atlantic flight. They have 8 hours of fuel. Do you know how much fuel was leaking? Do you know how fast was it leaking? Do you know how heavy was the aircraft? An overweight landing can cause structural damage on the aircraft.
      It doesn’t seem logical to you because you don’t have all the information and aircraft knowledge. Don’t be too quick to criticize the flight crew action.

    I love the way folks talk nowadays. "We'd like to declare an emergency". That's nice. Are you actually going to declare? Don't tell me what you'd like to do, just do it!. The FA says we'd like to welcome you to IAD! Nice, go ahead and welcome me then. I'd like to give everybody $100. That's nice too. But I won't actually do it. Don't tell me your intentions, just go ahead and do it! We have really forgotten how to speak proper English.

      Landing in BOS or JFK United doesn't have maintenance at either location. I believe United does B767 maint at IAD, so it probably makes the most sense in that regard. And they had plenty of fuel so there was no urgent need to land immediately.
