Apologies in advance I’m sure all will settle down in a few days. Just finished an interview with GMA due to air tomorrow. Thanks for always watching and supporting. Captain Steven 😊👍

    I was on this flight. We were halfway down the runway and getting up to speed when we heard loud bang and felt a shudder and braked hard. There wasn't much runway left when we finally stopped, fully loaded and four hours of fuel. When we stopped the captain said the firetrucks were coming only out of an abundance of caution, but from row 30 we could see flames. (Not the actual fire, but the orange flickering reflecting on the shiny metal engine.) And then the smoke when the truck put it out. Initially supposed to taxi back, but we ended up getting deplaned on the runway and bused to the terminal. We could see all the tire debris on the way back. Both tires on the right side shredded and burned, the other two were flat. I'm very appreciative the pilot kept it under control and it didn't blow out any later in the take off.
    I'm not quite sure why so many people are upset about Captain Steve's commentary and footage. His concern was justified considering the seriousness of the situation. Most UA-cam videos of disasters that I've seen involved someone screaming "Oh my God" into the phone over and over and some blurry footage, half of it of a shoelace. To those that wonder why he's yelling at someone that can't hear him, have obviously never driven a car. And he wasn't expecting trucks to magically appear. Although the camera pointed at the plane, he can turn his head and see when the trucks roll out, which should have been 90 seconds after the tire blew at about 7: 47. At 7:50 we had already stopped, the pilot made an announcement of what had happened, then I took the first photo. At 7:54 the truck I could see out my window turned the water on. At 9: 12 am we had gotten off the plane and were boarding the bus. We were on a replacement flight with connecting flights rebooked by 12:30 but there was a lot of confusion in between. At one point in the terminal an announcement was made that if we hadn't already rebooked we'd be back on the same plane after the tires had been changed!

      Yes. Sadly most passengers care more about how many USB plugs are at their seat vs how much investment the airline has made into preventative maintenance, pilot training, etc. And the airlines know it and base their advertising on such dumb trifles. I personally care more about competency. That's the airline I'll fly on if given a choice.

    It looked bad and it definitely gets your attention, the fire was the residual tire burning, they left most of it on the runway. This very scenario has to be demonstrated during certification. They have to do a max gross weight rejected takeoff at V1 and then a maximum energy stop. Thetires usually do catch fire. They then have to sustain the fire for 5 minutes before allowing fire crews to put it out. The crash crews have 2 minutes to arrive on scene. This used to be much more common than it is today, tires are much better. Crew did a good job! Check out one of the reject t/o videos. Impressive.

    As a former, now retired 737 Captain, above 100 K, I would have advanced the power and gone flying. He did a near V1 abort with a blown tire, less footprint, less effective braking. Both engines appeared to be fine. The fire was probably a result of excessive braking, friction from the blown tire and probably a bit later blew the fuse plugs in all the tires. Going airborne would have been the safer choice,. The procedure was to leave the gear down for cooling and not having the gear hang up if retracted. he 737 had a system that a frayed tire would cause the rear to extend anyway. The gear gravity extends and the overcenter struts hydraulically lock it in place. Another part of the procedure was that after landing and in this case aborting, you leave the flaps extended as they probably were damaged. It looked like he did a nice job on the abort and perhaps lady luck was on his side. I wasn't there and it's easy to arm chair quarterback.

    • @johnaclark1

      I was going to post this same comment. Not sure what speed this occurred at but had to be close to V1. The problem with a blown tire(s) and a high speed abort is you have no idea what kind of braking you'll have. Often the better choice is to go fly and then come back around after burning off fuel and touch it down on the approach end of the runway with plenty of stopping distance.

      Captain Dodson, I could not agree more and thank you for your comments. Greetings from retirement as well! There are additional advantages I'd like to add to the conversation for continuing the takeoff with a blown tire above 100 knots. You can pick your runway/airport and have all of that runway available, plus, you can have the ARFF ready in place in case something does go wrong. That this Captain was able to keep the aircraft under control speaks that he is skilled. However, the only reason he was able stop with a blown main tire after initiating a rejected takeoff near V1 tells me that the flight was thankfully nowhere near operating on a balanced field situation, in this case, due to the long runway. That was fortunate for all involved, and ample reason to assess the situation first before making a hasty decision because we don't always have that luxury. As it was, they were in a high energy state with the combined speed and weight because: 1. the passenger load was probably full and 2. they were fueled to get to Phoenix. The motto we were taught was to use standard operating procedure as an important element in preventing incidents, accidents, and worse, and that still applies.

      @CaptainStevenMarkovich I tell you that I enjoyed the safety practices of the military and trusted them way more than the civilian airline industry. You would think it would be the opposite, but in reality, the military was safer. I flew in combat and was a C-130 Flight Engineer. We had to fly at low altitudes, dodging bullets, evading missle threats, landing on dirt roads in the middle of indian country as we sometimes said, and I felt safer then than flying United to Honolulu. Why? Because of the people around me and our processes of safety, recruiting, and the true nature of how hard the training and recurring training was. It weeded out the folks most of the time to include maintenance. I worked aircraft maintenance for 12 years before I got the bug to fly. Those old heads (Vietnam vets) who trained me in maintenance were hard core folks on safety and repeatedly told me that the maintenance and flight manuals were mostly written in blood, and it stuck with me. No wonder they slapped us, poked us, and chewed us out if things weren't done correctly. Life and death is serious, and we have an issue today with safety.

      it's actually more than that. Brakes pads are worn down to the minimum you are allowed to take-off, the plane is loaded to it's maximum weight, and a rejected takeoff is done at the maximum speed a takeoff should be done, then the plane is brought to a stop and it must endure being stopped for 3 minutes (to simulate fire response time) and do not have any tire blow up due to the heat. The brake do catch fire and the tires safely plugs will melt releasing the air and prevent the tire from exploding. During that 3 minute there is enought time to safely evacuate the plane should it be needed. Once the fire dept arrive they hose down the brake to cool them and the situation is over.

      I'd be interested in knowing how far below V1 it was. In general, you're better off continuing the takeoff if you're close to V1 because a landing in the first 1500 feet of a long runway with a blown tire is preferable to a high speed abort in one. My guess is that the airplane yawed when the tires blew and the crew assumed it was an engine failure below V1, hence the abort.

  •  6 місяців тому +15

    People don't realize how big airports are, and how long the runways are. The call has to go in for the fire Dept to attend, they have to get suited up, an onto the truck. .Then they have to drive the probably 2 miles, at least, to get from the station, to where the plane stopped. Don't forget they also have to shut down the area from the fire station to where the plane stopped, as there are dozens of other aircraft moving around that have no idea what is happening, You don't want a plane to strike one of the responding fire units. Creating a huge tragedy. The response time was fantastic when you bother to look at all the variables. Plus, they kept the passengers on the plane because they were following protocol.

      @@frankb6333 Unless there was a bunch of editing done, it looks like the response time was a little over 3 minutes if you count from when the tire blew and allow the crew time to notify the tower. Also, airport runways are over a mile long, with the ones for the largest planes being close to 2, so it's reasonable to expect that vehicles are going to have to travel at least some distance to get there. If you'll notice on this video, it appears that at least half a mile was added just in having to drive down and around the fence. Also, it's safe to assume procedures and thus response times are different for takeoffs vs. landings...with the difference being that they're usually made aware of problems before a plane lands and stage accordingly....speeding up the response times.

    Hi Mate, that catch in your video was epic! Would it be alright if I included it in my next video? I'll credit your channel in the description and link back to the original. Let me know. Cheers😊
