[@morgan4574]

I was on the last flight to leave from Honolulu on 20 December 2020, and during takeoff and climb Kilauea volcano on the big island erupted violently. I didn't know it at the time but the crew was extremely worried and on edge, I saw an orange glow out of the window but thought it was just light from the engines in weird fog. It wasn't until we landed that the crew showed how frazzled and relieved they were. The plane was too far into the takeoff to abandon or return to Honolulu, and no other planes were able to leave after us. We got pretty lucky

[@elevatedH.680]

The FO is a female??

[@The_ZeroLine]

@mipmipmipmipmipObviously not, especially since this person’s plane didn’t come near an ounce of ash. If a lot of ash got ingested, the primary cost would be replacing the engines. Some flight surfaces would require replacement/repair and it’d need a new paint.

[@The_ZeroLine]

And it’s obviously not true that they couldn’t have returned to Honolulu or another Hawaiian airport. Ash doesn’t spread faster than the wind. All they would have needed to do was to dump fuel. Also, the pilots’ worry would have been from ignorance since they clearly wouldn’t have been flying through the ash stream.

[@The_ZeroLine]

What makes your comment even more ridiculous is that Honolulu is 220 miles from Mount Kilauea. So, I guess it’s true that people tell absurd stories for no good reason on YT.

After British Airways Flight 009, this should not happened. Especially not with a major carrier like KLM.

[@Relkond]

Once is a fluke. Twice is happenstance. Three times? That’s a pattern, best do something about it. - Thing is, the crew knew to avoid ash clouds - but you can’t tell the two apart just by looking at them. Part of the solution adopted today is air charts now have the option to show airspace that has a risk of carrying volcanic ash. I may question how quickly the charts can be updated, but the capacity IS there today. In the days of paper charts, it wasn’t an option.

It wasn't just BA9, a few weeks after that flight, a Singapore Airlines 747 flying in the same area also had the same issue after the same volcano erupted again. They landed in Jakarta with just one engine and similar damage. Not sure why KLM 867 wasn't diverted from the area right before the eruption.

My brother was in Alaska when Mt McKinley blew (iirc). He has some jars of the ashes. He said it fell like snow. People would go outside to go to work, start their cars, only to watch them sputter out in seconds and be useless until it was cleaned out and the air filter replaced. Ash is crazy that way. It looks like snow, but it's superfine and will coat every surface and starve an engine super fast.

@@spikenomoon There was warning that a volcano had erupted and there was an ash cloud present in the vicinity.

[@jwenting]

@@davemould4638 they were alert, and took the then standard measures to get out of the ash (meaning, apply full throttle and climb). Diversion wasn't considered probably because of where they were flying, it's pretty remote there with few aircraft that can handle a 747. Vancouver or Seattle could have been options to land early had they known the cloud would be where it was and couldn't be avoided, but they didn't as the location of the cloud wasn't known. And had they chosen to make their fuel stop there rather than at Anchorage they may have had trouble reaching Japan, especially if they'd have chosen a more southerly (and thus longer) route to avoid the volcano. Lots of factors always come into play when making flight planning decisions. And sometimes you take a calculated risk if said risk is considered to be minimal.

I actually worked on that aircraft in Everett when it hit the flight line along with some British air, Asiana, Lufthansa and a few others. They were a beautiful aircraft with all the upgrades and even though I was avionics I was temporarily on electrical rework because the first 400s came out of the factory and they were engineering basket cases. I would get a workcard to install a wire and the very next day me or another tech would get another workcard to remove the same wire I had installed just yesterday. And in the "E-bay" (Electronics Bay) Boeing had incorporated a new wiring concept called "wire wrap." It made as much sense as defunding the police and then wondering why crime had increased.

Amazing story and accurate replay of the incident. Good job on including the live ATC /cockpit R/T. When flying into regions of volcanic activity it is paramount to not only pay close attention to ASHTAMS but take additional tie to thoroughly prepare for this kind of scenario at pre flight planning as well as during I fight reviewing the QRH SOP for this eventuality and delaying your top of descent point to minimize transition to ash zones and taking track deviation well in advance of reaching the suspect areas. This means planning higher Flight Levels and carrying extra contingency fuel ad ensuring Crew and cabin oxygen levels well above adequate levels ad Electrical system,Batteries and Flash lights condition in excellent condition ad that during normal operations the APU ad Engine EGTs at acceptable levels. It is also paramount to ensure Engine ignition is ON and not on Auto when flight passage proximate volcanic plumes. Approaching brown colored thick clouds with smoke/acrid smell or reduced screen visibility are a clear sign to follow the manufacturer recommended memo items ad SOP for flight into volcanic ash. This was an even better lesson after the original British Airways incident over Jakarta. Good CRM and Command by the Captain especially.Ability for the whole crew to remain calm and act procedurally is paramount.This scenario needs to be practiced both in Simulator recurrent training as well as Cabin Smoke procedures including Cabin crew joint training.

The fact that the only two major volcanic ash incidents in aviation history happened in Indonesia and Alaska, respectively, is no accident. Arc volcanism is by far the worst kind for aviation since it tends to involve the most silica-rich type of magma, which is in turn most likely to fragment into ash when it erupts.
