    I’m a student pilot and once landed with a mild tailwind just to see what it was like. I was surprised at how much more runway I needed to safely land and came uncomfortably close to the end of the runway. Why would this pilot make his job harder rather than just landing in the opposite direction? With the wet runway and lack of thrust reverser giving two strikes against him, why take a third strike with a tail wind?

    • @frankish5314
      @frankish5314 Рік тому +4

      Runway used is a function of speed squared. I.e you are trying to remove kinetic energy through the brakes which is .05MV^2. Thus a little tailwind = a LOT more runway. Note also that fuel weight is varies enormously on jet aircraft, which is why they talk about overweight landings, i.e you can't just take off turn around and land like you can with a light aircraft. If you progress and get your instrument rating you will often be limited to doing downwind landings. Reason being that Municipal airports if equipped with an ILS system will only provide it on one end of the longest runway.. So yeah if you are flying a fast airplane with a 30 knot tailwind with cloud going down to 200ft above the runway then you had better be taking that into account..:)

      Well I don't know the airport but there are airports where landing in the opposite direction is not an option although I don't think this was the case here. All of this shows a questionable attitude towards safety in my opinion.
      I recently sat in a KLM flight into FLR (short runway), shortly before touchdown we went around, reason was tailwind. The planes before and after us landed there, we diverted. Many people were annoyed, I was very happy that the pilots wanted to make absolutely sure we would stay safe even if it would cost us a few hours and them a lot of money.

    You do great videos. This was a tragic and preventable accident. GO AROUND or BALKED landing could have saved the day. I flew B737's into short runways, Midway, Laguardia, a few others, scheduled passenger service for years. You have to be on speed and touchdown zone, especially with a wet runway. You can get away with more on a 10,000' long runway, but disipline applies to every takeoff & landing regardless of runway and airport boundary. I also flew into Detroit City Airport, 6000' feet give or take, no real overrun. Literally a cemetery at each end.

    I've read this comment somewhere before: overhead bins which can be locked by electromagnetic locks. This can then be part of the preparation for landing or crash and operated by the cabin crew. Con: additional weight and additional cabling and electric hazard. Another solution: sueing passengers who are caught with their bags after a crash and ban them from the airline. Make them pay for hindering the evacuation and the loss of their fellow passengers lives.

      Why have an electronic solution when a mechanical one will do? Just have all the bins locked with the same lock, and have the flight attendants have the only keys. They lock them all before takeoff, unlock them after landing. If you want something inflight, you have to ask them to unlock it for you, after which it's re-locked. The best part of this is that the passengers will then know they can't access their bags in an emergency situation because they will see it get locked.

    There are a few major details to this accident, as the crew were on there 5th sector and had already exceeded their flight limitations upon the diversion to Port Sudan, they should'nt have taken off from Port Sudan until rested. The company would have had to send another crew to operate back and they probably pressured the crew to return, cost reduction, safety culture and even poor oversight from the civil aviation authority to let this go. Definitely fatigue played a huge role, not setting autobrakes to save the brakes was another practice to reduce costs. The aircraft's engine caught fire as a result of ground contact due to a deep ditch that was dug up for some cables and approach light wiring. It became tilted on one side to the point that the evacuation slides didnt reach the ground. Also most passengers were returning from medical treatment so they were mostly elderly which may also have hindered the evacuation process; tilted aircraft, fire on one side and the other side slides not reaching the ground. Fire fighting also should have put the engine fire out immediately, but didnt have the foam, they were fighting with water and couldnt extinguish the fires until the aircraft was a total loss. There budget had not been approved. A very tragic event with multiple defects and non-standard practices all coming together in one time. May they rest in peace.

    more a common mistake then something unthinkable... in fact, I can think of a few other crashes where reverser trouble had far more severe effect...
    per example: the crash of a re-positioning redwings flight into Vnukovo of Tu204-100 one of the "modern" Tupolevs... now to retain uniformity with Soviet cockpit designs the reversers on these airplanes were/are separately deployed from thrust controls... thus, the checklist is "reversers armed, levers to full thrust"... on that day, due to the plane being light and required to keep high approach speed for separation, the aircraft touched down not enough for the auto-pilots to sense touchdown, the pilots meanwhile, trying to put the plane down, manually engaged full spoilers early but missed the fact the reversers were not engaged, pulling thrust to max, as per normal procedure...
    the plane overran the runway, cut through two barriers and broke apart against the far embankment having crossed a highway one carpark width beyond the airport perimeter...
    another example, an airbus attempts a touch-&-go on a super short runway, but forgets to disengage automatic thrust reversers... forget where this was, but remember the story

    At least in the USA the FAA only certifies use of runways for types of aircraft that are able to land there safely without the use of thrust-reversers. This is a safety precaution in case of emergencies involving engine failures. Thrust-reversers are meant to be a convenience to lessen the wear on the brakes and also to be able to clear the runway sooner.
    The most critical mistake in this accident in my opinion was the attempt at a soft touch-down on a wet runway to begin with and thus hovering too long. Even without the tailwind this already reduced their options to having to execute every step of the braking perfectly from then on.

    Hey u mentioned wind was from 320 @ 7 knots for Runway 36. So that's 40 degrees port making it a cross wind landing and not Tailwind . So how did the extra 15 knots speed arise.
    I think it was a combination of a wet runway, Reverser retracted and auto brakes not selected to Max and also a late touchdown . Also the aircraft would have been close to its Max landing weight thus adding extra momentum on the landing roll. Runway and stopway length calculations for their landing weight and braking distance with a wet Runway were not precisely calculated by the flight crew. Pilot error.

      320 at 7 knots was cited as the numbers given by ATC to the pilots, this wind measurement could be outdated by the time of landing as wind directions change, complex local weather systems may lead to the wind conditions being completely different at the runway threshold as compared to the wind at weather station, or there may be significant gusting. All of these factors either acting independently or in some combination can lead to the reported wind conditions being different from the actual conditions during landing.

      @@avesphilic6727 this wind is given again just before landing clearance. "Clear to land Rwy 36 , Wind 320 7 knots" so it cannot be outdated or have changed drastically as the aircraft would have been 10nm and at around 3000 feet altitude from touch down. And if there were any windshear , it would have been told to the pilots by ATC after getting reports from an aircraft that landed before this one. Also plz note that the A310 is categorized as a heavy aircraft as its weight is between 200 and 300 tons. So it would have carried a lot of momentum on the landing roll with a wet runway thus requiring full reverse thrust and autobrakes set to max with spoilers deployed of course

    Sadly, even more luggage is brought aboard planes these days due to stowed luggage charges. Some people seem to take so much stuff onboard they use up an entire bin themselves.

    • @Sashazur
      @Sashazur Рік тому

      Airlines restrict the amount of carry on luggage and also have size restrictions for those items. But it’s up to gate personnel and flight attendants to enforce those rules.
      The video said there was no further detail on how hand luggage impeded the evacuation, but my guess is it was people trying to grab their stuff from the bins, rather than bins falling open. If the bins had failed they probably would have mentioned that.

    Question: If you have a thrust reverser inop, but you elect to apply full reverse on both engines, what happens on the inop engine? Does it go into full thrust but forwards? That would be tough to handle if so, with one engine in the reverse and the other full forward.

    • @Chellz801

      No it just doesn’t deploy so you might start pushing to one side of the runway.

    • @Sashazur
      @Sashazur Рік тому

      I’m not a pilot but based on the video it will cause a side to side thrust imbalance, which you have to counteract. The pilots in this case used the rudder to do that, but I wonder if it’s also possible to reduce the throttle on the engine with the inoperable reverser?

    To me, it is not obvious that this was a tailwind landing. Didn't you mention that the wind was from320 at 7 knots? This doesn't explain the difference of 15 Kts between airspeed and groundspeed...
    On what I do agree is that max breaking plus planting it 'on the numbers' plus using the right TR as much as possible would have saved the day.
    But hindsight is always 20/20...

    You can land the plane with both thrust reversers not working. The brakes are designed to slow and stop the plane at full takeoff speed with full passenger, cargo, and fuel on board …and safely. They should be able do this even with the brakes fully worn out.

    After watching many air crash investigations like this, I cannot for the life of me understand why governments continue to allow airlines to operate planes with unsolved problems such as 'one thrust reverser out of commission' (or a dodgy altimeter at night, or a non-functioning aileron that is masked by the autopilot then the plane suddenly goes into a roll when it turns off, startling the hell out of the pilot) - the same as driving a car with a brake partly locked on when stopping. In the event of a wet/windy accident though, the car usually contains only one person that can die. With a plane it's usually many more than that.
    On a nice sunny day with ideal conditions and a headwind this would not have been an issue. But when conditions go south, pilots should NOT have to stress out about compensating for a crippled bird because some cheap *ss company that shouldn't be in business (!) if it can't afford to have safe planes in the sky wanted to save a few bucks. The same goes for 'extending service intervals'. Obviously there's a reason why manufacturers specify a certain interval; after a stress-fracture accident they are always reduced if identical replacement parts are used. IMHO, this is the only way service intervals should ever be altered unless the plane is redesigned.

  • @siraff4461
