I've been a passenger on a small plane involved in a parallel takeoff! It's like watching yourself take off in a big mirror! Very cool!

[@ThePaulv12]

I've been a GA pilot at an airport that has 2 sets of parallel runways where on the day in question both were active. Depending on the quadrant you were in that determined what runway you used (ATIS) - one side doing a right hand circuit the other left hand circuit. So on base, two of us were flying directly at each other. It was very disconcerting. When we both turned onto final I relaxed. I must admit to cutting the corner and not flying a 90deg turn onto final - more like a 30 deg LOL, which brought me in a bit high but that was fine because our hangers were at the far end anyhow and the runway double the length I needed.

[@SocratesAth]

Fun fact: jet fuel is actually pretty close to diesel fuel. People often expect that aviation engines use the highest quality fuel, but in reality, turbine engines can burn pretty much anything, so they normally use a rather cheap, diesel-like fuel.

[@pazuzu7119]

​@@SocratesAthI always thought it was kerosene.

[@SocratesAth]

@@pazuzu7119 You're right! And kerosene is very close to diesel, in terms of its composition, chemical properties, as well as cost.

Originally, it was kerosene cut with gasoline, to help it stay liquid at lower temperatures. Basically fancy kerosene, NATO uses the same fuel in both diesel and turbines.

According to comments on VAS Aviation's clip of this video, this particular landing was done by the First Officer who was in training, and it's this bad likely because pilots coming to the 747 aren't used to the cockpit being higher-up. The second landing was smooth as butter.

[@Coolflight777]

Bro they use the rudder to turn the wheel

[@CuthbertNibbles]

The pilot wanted to exit on the taxiway (instead of continuing on to the next exit), so he turned the wheel. However, the plane was moving too fast, so the wheel started skidding. Quite similar to turning too hard on the highway in a car. This likely did not cause damage, but was a risky maneuver as the plane was not in control and could have rolled off the tarmac.

Holy smoke! Which kind of fuel did the Air India 747 use? Coals??

[@polpan1973]

I don't think the A380 gear skidded due to a wrong input by the pilot. It appears as if something went wrong with the brakes or the nose wheels. I noticed that the smoke appeared before the plane started turning, or at the very beginning of the turn and I am not sure it actually skidded. From the looks of it, I would say that the wheels keep on turning - the smoke is coming from all around the tires, not just the contact point with the tarmac. If I did not know any better, I would suggest that the wheels were spinning 🤣Any other opinions?

[@Pesmog]

It was explained to me by an aircraft engineer that the front wheels on many airliners are often very lightly loaded at taxi, getting them to bite when turning can sometimes be a problem which can generate understeer. Apparently assymetrically adjusting engine thrust can help. As the front gear can be so lightly loaded it is one of various reasons why nose wheels don't have brakes as they would not work well. Front skids like this are quite a common occurance and there are quite a few videos on the Web showing them. I have witnessed KC-135s doing something similar three or four times over the years when trying to execute a 180 degree reversal on a runway.
