  • Sunday, June 23rd 2019:
    Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is serviced by 2 daily Air France flights - AF682/681, a 777-300. AF688/689, an A380. Air France 681 took off around 5:45pm & shortly thereafter declared an emergency due to an engine failure. A flameout during the takeoff phase is known to be a can of worms, but le professionnalisme de l'équipage de conduit & professionalism of the tower controller made it look like a walk in the park. Kudos to all involved in bringing this to a happy ending & condolences to those with ruined travel plans

      It's kind of the pilot mindset. In 1982 a British Airways plane flew into the ash cloud of an erupting volcano and lost power to its engines. The pilots' announcement: "Good evening ladies and gentlemen. This is your Captain speaking. We have a small problem. All four engines have stopped. We are all doing our damnedest to get them going again. I trust you are not in too much distress." code7700.com/accident_british_airways_9.htm
      They managed to get the plane down safely.

      I know air traffic controllers need to stay calm in all situations, but you can't help having a human side. He was genuinely worried. I mean, imagine having the feeling that there could be a chance that you could be speaking to the pilot one last time following if a disaster had happened.
      Kudos to the pilot. Also for anyone who is scared of flying, I got by that fear by accepting that if it happens. It happens. And use this ideology with everything, including when you are driving, or even walking. You just don't know if it would be your last.

      @@zaildarbains not entirely, approach will be directing traffic away, not the tower. Plus it's highly unlikely anyone would divert due to this event, plus it is crew choice where to divert if any did, not ATC. The above comment has it right, we all have a human side and the adrenaline would have kicked in.
      As for the AF crew, the 777 is reasonably straightforward to fly single engine if TAC (thrust asymmetry compensation) works, plus the electronic checklists are very useful in reducing workload. Single engine work is so well practiced you tend to go into automatic mode when it happen, or so I would imagine as I haven't experienced one, nor do I hope to, in real life.

    I am a little bit late, but I was on that plane! I actually had no idea what was going on, I didn’t see anything that happened. All I knew was suddenly we weren’t gaining altitude, we were going in circles, and the cabin was getting uncontrollably stuffy and hot. But after I saw the video of the actual engine going out and the flames sparking out the engine, couldn’t have asked for the situation to be handled any better. There was no panic on my side of the plane, the crew members kept calm and controlled the entire time (which eased my nerves tons, I thought something small happened, not a whole engine failure ahaha). And of course the pilots were amazing as well! They did great in getting us down safe and sound, I have nothing but gratitude to the pilots and crew members!

    Here's a little hint about which engine, even though 681 did report it with their souls and fuel. Immediately after the mayday 681 requested left turns, which would indicate that the left engine is out. With non-symmetrical thrust the more powerful engine, in this case the right engine, will create a yaw moment, in this case to the left.The rudder will be over far right to compensate making right turns difficult.

    • @mpucoder

      In a single engine situation with marginal thrust or airspeed, you turn into the good engine. Turning into the dead engine dramatically increases the risk of a VMC rollover and resultant crash.
      With an aircraft of this type, there usually is plenty of thrust and airspeed to maintain speed well above VMC so turning either way is OK.

      That may be true however the most dangerous part of a flight is between take off and landing, low altitude and low air speed. So losing an engine facing any of these variables is tricky for any pilot in command.

    Assuming with the pax load and fuel, they’d be landing at 280-290t, max landing weight on the 300ER is 251290 kg, so not massively overweight, and it looks like they used flap 30 or 25...so they weren’t landing climb limited.
    Nice job...and the brakes probably didn’t get above 4.0 units :-)

    As some others have commented. This isn't as big of a deal as some may think. Engine failure at takeoff is pilot training 101. Aircraft are designed and heavily flight tested for it. Engines thrust rating are designed for engine out at takeoff. Of all the failure scenarios, engine failure at takeoff is one of the most routine procedures. Unless there was more serious engine failures causing fire or visible damage, the landing should be just that routine landing. Emergency crews are mostly there as precaution to get eyes on failed engine to assure it is safe to have the aircraft back at the gate.

    • @skytrotter6144

      Andre T as well as too make sure the brakes will not initiate a fire, remember this plane was fully loaded for a transatlantic flight therefore very heavy to stop upon landing and only one T/R to slow it down and above the wheels with the very hot brakes there is the fuel in the wings for a big part of it !
      Although tested during certification you are never too cautious...
