- A Boeing cargo plane operated by Atlas Air caught fire mid-flight, prompting an emergency landing in Miami. Atlas Air Flight 5Y095 experienced an engine malfunction shortly after departing from Miami International Airport on Thursday night, the airline said in a statement to Scripps News. It had intended to travel to Puerto Rico.
I've been flying Microsoft Flight Simulator since 1995. Which means I have over 20 years of experience flying commercial aircraft online. I can tell you without a doubt that landing that plane minus one engine is a piece of cake.
I trust you
😂
🫡Outstanding pilot!🏆
..he stayed extremely calm and composed, facing that very serious potentially catastrophic disaster!
Amazing!!!💪🏾🙏🏿
It looks like at the last part of the video that maybe the flames stopped. If they did, probably they pulled the fire suppression handle. Not much danger to the aircraft. they can land on one engine if they have to. In this case they still had three good engines. Side note.... I love the 747, I'm a retired Boeing mechanic. I worked in Flight Test and got to fly with them and test them. Very safe airplane. In spite of Boeing being in the news a lot lately, there's no other airplanes I'd rather fly in than Boeing. There are thousands of them flying every day, so there's bound t be a problem every now and then. ALL manufacturers have issues sometimes.
Also it may not have been a problem with the plane itself. They may have picked up something from the runway on take off. That will do it.
The Captain and Co-Pilot displayed exceptional Airmanship, while providing clear, calm, and succinct instructions to ATC during such a terrifying experience. They should be applauded. That is what realistic and intense training is for! The Captain also has balls of steel.
🎯🎯I hope they are recognized. I am retired Air Force and I hear Atlas is terrible to work for. This is the second accident for Atlas in recent history. I think the other was over the everglades but I'm not 100% sure.
Hmmm... This reporter compared it to the Alaska Air door issue, as if its a Boeing problem. Not so, because if it was a bird strike, then it would be a circumstance subject to ALL aircraft - including the Cessna I fly. If it was a fault of the engine, then it it is a GE, Pratt & Whitney or Rolls Royce issue. In either case, that would not be a Boeing issue. I'm certain however, that the media is creating a big hype for their own interests.
If it's Boeing I ain't going.
Engines aren’t made by Boeing. Probably either a bird strike or a compressor stall.
Same here
Boeing made the airframe. GE made the jet engine.
The wing stayed on!
Older 747s can also have Pratt & Whitney or Rolls Royce engines. Not just GE. All three types were offered for 747-100, 200, 300 and 400. Not sure about 747-8s.
Atlas is who Amazon contracts with. That's probably contract cargo...ie Miami's Amazon load.
At 0.23 seconds the forward motion stops and it suddenly moves sideways. Go to 0:21 to watch it better. Anyone have any explanation of this? I've noticed in a lot of other clips, from other news stations, they seem to cut that part out or obscure it in someway. Fishy.
It might be moving sideways cuz of thrust asymmetry of the planes engines
@@naadir_shaikh but if that was the case, would that not have happened more than once?
@lowfpsneonmain because it literally looks like all forward momentum stops, and then it appears to move sideways and then carries on. Even with one engine providing more thrust, surely that would cause a diagonal movement, but it would still be moving forwards?
@@SarahJSwift yes it will cause diagonal movement but to keep it straight the pilots use the rudder to keep the plane moving forward (im not a pilot or an expert im just a guy who loves aviation) but def there will be thrust asymmetry if one or 2 engines stop working
@lowfpsneonmain interesting. Because to me, there's no diagonal movement, just a straight stop and a 90° movement to the right and then on it goes again. That's why I think there's something a bit stranger going on, than more thrust from one engine.
A cargo jet made by Boeing has nothing to do with this and had nothing to do with the other Boeing issues with the max series aircraft.
That's why those of us who follow aviation News don't get it news from sources like this and it's really annoying when you don't report on it correctly. Tell the public this has nothing to do with the other.
I do think it's funny that those engines were designed in Miami though.
The way this reporter put it, she is blaming Boeing (talked about the plug door incident) while it very well could be (and likely is) the engine itself and its maintenance, not the aircraft itself and therefore not Boeing's fault. Boeing does not make engines for any of its planes and is never responsible for engine maintenance at all. Just thought folks should know that. Very unfair and poor reporting.
This had nothing to do with the Boeing jet with the plug that came out. That engine is made by General Electric. There were 5 souls on board for a short flight.
Could have been a bird strike. Looks like an engine issue and they can land safely with one engine if trained properly. Not Boeing's fault. Engines aren't made by Boeing.
Boeing board members. What do you have to say.... The floor is now yours
This is a 747, not a 737. This was an engine failure, not a door/window failure. Boeing doesn’t make engines. This engine was made by General Electric.
Older 747s could also have Pratt & Whitney or Rolls Royce engines. Did they say they were GE?? Most Atlas 747s I've seen have Pratts.
@@markr.1984 Yes. It’s an 747 freighter that isn’t very old. Built in 2011 with GEnx engines.
Correction. Thought I read the plane was built in 2011. Googled it again - appears it was built in 2015. Still GEnx engines. See FAA registration info for N859GT.
Stunning is not the word i would use when people are in a plane like that. What is wrong with you?!?
Come fly the friendly skies with Boeing, get some of the best views out of an aircraft ever, and don’t forget about the thrills
It's the engine, not Boeings fault. Boeing does not make nor maintain engines. Boeing likely not culpable! Duh!!!!!
Yeah people just keep getting on them planes doors flying off sparks flying out fire shooting up and that ever ever is not real That's why I'm not getting on plane. I'm 84 and I have never been on a plane and I've lived a really good life.
I know, right? I miss the old days when the wagons would be leaving to go west.
@@nocapbussin Yes me too The only thing you had to worry about was an Indian attack but wait no I'm part Indian or a wheel falling off not being sucked out a door or caught on fire and plummeting to the ground
Eh, everyone has their unreasonable fears ig. Planes are still far safer than cars tho
@@CarlosAM1 So my fears are unreasonable that makes anybody out there's fears on reasonable You don't know me never met me but you can say my fears are unreasonable who do you think you are? Biden?
@@barbiehepinsmitt5665 My bad, english ain't my first language, what I meant is "irrational". My point is, that a fear of airplanes purely because of what you describe is not based on logic, let alone how dangerous planes actually are, rather it's just you being scared of something that is far safer than you may think it is, hence, a fear of flying is an irrational fear.
DE&I strikes again😂😂
Never fly boeing folks !!!!
Im glad all the new diversity hires doing well.
That's part of the problem with Boeing, Feds probably made them hire lots of the Venezuelans jumping the border. You never know.
Scary
Just Boeing doing Boeing things. When profit over safety is real.
Most likely due to the engine itself (Boeing does not make the engines, never has) and/or maintenance of the engine. Boeing is not at fault for engine problems. Same as other manufacturers, including Airbus as well. No aircraft manufacturer that I know of makes or maintains the engines used on aircraft. Older 747s can have engines from Roll Royce, GE or Pratt & Whitney. Depends on the order from the buyer, they get the engines they want of the ones offered.
Yup. Sure is safe to fly. 🙄
It’s safer than driving
Engine fires happen all the time not a huge deal
Whaaaaat😮
Boeing what ?
That's diversity hiring in action
