That must've also been a malfunction in the last clip, not like the pilots just forgot to retract the landing gear.

[@wingflex5367]

Yep, for sure. I'm sure they came back around and landed after that.

[@mileshigh1321]

I have seen this many times, on another channel, live from Heathrow. It has to do with tires still spinning, so they eventually retract and don't have to return.

[@ДмитрийЛевченко-р5д]

It is standard procedure to wait 10 minutes after takeoff if the antiskid system fails. The Antiskid system brakes the wheels after takeoff to avoid the effect of the gyroscope during landing gear retraction

[@fluchterschoen]

I understand what you mean. This is very interesting to know. @@ДмитрийЛевченко-р5д

[@marspp]

Yup to the above. Can also happen for hot brakes: leave the gear out til they cool down to avoid wheel well fire. Unlikely here as Manchester isn’t that big and it’s not that warm so not much taxying and braking. Most likely anti-skid failure as noted or maybe an inoperable brake which means they have to wait a certain time for it to wind itself down and stop before retracting.

[@flyerflier8543]

Last one is purely operational when the antiskid isn’t functioning. I’ve had it many times. Sometimes 2 minutes is sufficient, but other times dictate 10 minutes. 787 suffers regularly!

[@nmc980]

Really interesting to know that and thanks for the clarification. I was at LHR a couple of weeks back and saw the exact same thing - a VS A330 and I commented to my colleague I thought it may have had an issue. Mystery solved!

[@aerodaan]

The Virgin must have had a brake inop. The procedure to operate with this is to let the gear down for at least 1 minute to let the wheel (of which the brake is inop) roll out by itself before the gear can be retracted

[@theasian5496]

aircraft mechanic (in training) here! a few reasons as to why the 777's nose gear had a delayed retraction could be due to a malfunctioning sequence valve or low hydraulic fluid or pressure in the nose gear actuator and/or hydraulic lines.

[@jepolch]

2:24 Cooling off the brakes after a recent landing.

[@fluchterschoen]

I think this is a joke, and if so it's funny! It is a joke, isn't it? I mean, the time between a landing and the next take-off would be way long enough for brakes to cool, and a plane wouldn't attempt a take-off with overheated brakes as they might be needed for an aborted take-off. I'm sure it's a joke. Voted up.

[@jepolch]

@@fluchterschoen Not a joke. This really happens during short turnarounds.

[@fluchterschoen]

Well, still voted up for being very interesting information. What about my point about the safety issue of taking off with hot brakes? Hot brakes means less effective brakes - so what if they need to abort take-off and stop in a hurry?@@jepolch

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

@@fluchterschoenan A330 doesn’t have quick enough turns for it to become an issue. It’s the 737s and A320s that struggle with hot brakes, because they are on the ground for such a short time. This likely was more the case of an anti skid failure or having one of the brakes inop. They would wait for the tire to spool down, before retraction. Normally, this is done by the brakes after take off.

[@robertmendez7376]

[@manurocker1]

2:27 hate to break it to you but most aircraft take off without retracting their landing gear

[@bevo65]

Fuel consumption aside, I'd rather have my gear fail to retract than extend!

[@Yonkage-ik5qb]

Unfortunately, it seems the 787 with the HUD started its descent into the netherworld at the end of the clip, as the HUD ground elevation suddenly went to -2.

[@guitarheaven1747]

Usually has to do with the radar altimeter being adjusted for the very point of touchdown at a certain angle itself, so when the gear is still fully extended. Once more weight rests on it and it settles into its usual position on the ground, the aircraft once again loses a bit more altitude as measured by the radar altimeter, in this case about two feet

[@stevenk195]

They leave the gear down longer after take-off to let out any trapped birds. 😂

[@peasoup2980]

The last airplane likely had one of its wheel brakes “capped”, which means it does not work. Often the operational procedure for something like this is to leave the gear down for about five minutes.

Engine-out second segment climb performance.

[@fluchterschoen]

Someone else has pointed out that if the anti-skid mechanism fails to brake the wheels after take-off, there is a delay in retracting the (still spinning) gear to avoid slewing due to the gyroscopic effect of the heavy, rotating wheel and tire. I didn't know this, and it's pretty fascinating. There might be a different reason in the case shown, but this is one possible explanation.

[@davejones542]

yes drag, also as the aircraft speed builds up there is a speed that retraction should not be attempted due to structural force limits

[@Owlventure_Aviation]

@@EdOeuna Its a mounted camera

[@EdOeuna]

@@Owlventure_Aviation - the video is being shot through the HUD. This means it’s in the pilots line of sight, not mounted somewhere else in the cockpit and looking over the PM’s shoulder. The camera also moves when the pilot leans forward (for the gear I recall). If the camera is mounted, then it’s on the pilots head, which would be equally, if not more, irresponsible than the PM holding the camera.

I didn't know the new variant of the 777 has folding wingtips. Could those be folded in flight to act as winglets (reduce/eliminate wingtip vortices)?

They don't need to be as the folded sections are raked like the Dreamliner's wingtips which is another technique to reduce wingtip vortices :)

[@u4riahsc]

One time coming back to Pt. Mugu from San Nicholas Island the plane flew low by the control tower at Pt. Mugu. The pilot came on and said the light didn’t light up indicating the landing gear was down so he flew past the control tower so they could see it. Then he said we would divert to Burbank since he wasn’t sure if the landing gear was locked and the Burbank hospital was closer to a major hospital. I don’t like flying.

[@AndyPat239]

gees that's not good when the pilots start talking about hospitals 😊

[@UncleKennysPlace]

@@AndyPat239That would be a strange thing to say, in any case. Gear up landings aren't a big deal.

[@44R0Ndin]

Planes are designed to land gear-up without much as far as ill effects go, provided it stays on the runway. Yes, it will need repairs, and it won't be able to taxi, but other than that the aircraft should be able to be returned to flight after repair, and the passengers should remain unharmed. The more dangerous condition is landing with only one main landing gear extended, because this would cause the aircraft to veer off the runway. If you have no gear, that means you just need a longer runway, and you won't be able to taxi. The need for a longer runway is likely why they actually chose Burbank. The engine nacelles for instance are designed for quite a bit of punishment, including abrasion from skidding along the ground due to a gear-up landing. Same for the portion of the nose or tail that will be sliding along the runway due to the same gear-up landing. Heck, the DC-3 had the landing gear arranged so that if you had a gear-up landing all you'd have to do is fix the bent propellers, since the landing gear were built right into the bottom of the engine nacelles on that one.

good luck landing that 777..

[@EdOeuna]

I’d suggest that the centre hydraulic system demand pumps aren’t working and that the system is prioritising the retraction of the main gear before the nose gear due to a lack of available pressure to do all at the same time. The gear falls by gravity so extending isn’t so much of a problem.

[@EdOeuna]

777 slow retraction was probably because of the centre hydraulic system prioritising retracting the main gear over the nose gear because of a lack of hydraulic pressure. Maybe the aircraft was dispatched with a pair of faulty centre demand pumps.

The total aviation ignorance of this content creator and his captions is absolutely astounding.

No pilot ever delays the retraction of gear in order to achieve an ATC specified limit like speed or altitude. Gear has absolutely no correspondence with speed or altitude and just gives great drag to the aircraft.
