Emergency Services Respond To FULL EMERGENCY LANDING At Manchester Airport due to OVERHEATING ENGINE

[@Noah-ch8cu]

One of my supervisors at work. Is ex senior controller at Manc. He told me that. For a major emergancy local fire is called in. Both Wythenshawe General & Royal Manchester. Are on full alert for full emergancy all surgery is cancelled unless all ready operating. As soon as they cam stand down units and hospitals they will. He also said Airport fire dont go in to rescuse they concentrate on getting the fire out. GMFRS do the resucing. Imagone 150 - 400 people onboard

[@stevegregory2867]

I worked for Cheshire Ambulance service,my station was one of the many cheshire stations that would be called to a full emergency.

[@stevegregory2867]

Also Ambulance services from manchester,and Cheshire are called to the airport if a plane is coming in with an emergency situation.I was with Cheshire Ambulance service,called regularly to the airport.

[@999EmergencyResponses]

Wow! Amazing footage!

[@BillyDaKidtv]

Love the John Deere's two tones at the beginning of the video. Nice catch!

[@Station747]

The unmarked cars that come in around the 4:55 mark in the video are they police personnel? & if so who/what teams travel in these type of cars? I’ve seen them fairly regularly over the years & always wondered what service (I assume police) & what role they play.

[@fireresponsetv]

The first one is a fire officer and the two in convoy are both ambulance operations managers

[@shaunobrien534]

Why do normal fire engines from local stations respond to aircraft at the airport? Surely this is for the airport fire brigade isn't it?

[@fireresponsetv]

To assist the airport fire service

[@shaunobrien534]

@@fireresponsetv Ahh right, I never knew that happened. I always thought airport fire brigades were more than capable without the need for the local brigade. Cheers👍🏻

[@vincentlugthart4618]

They might assist if it’s a big incident but you’ll have noticed that only airport fire service engines actually attended the aircraft

[@ethanch3011]

They act as backup firefighters/relief crews for full scale emergencies such as fires and crash landings

[@paulandjelkovich9224]

The fire chief for Manchester fire can overrule the airfield firefighters if deemed to be a major issue.

[@380Scania]

Only thing I can think is that it was decided to call a major incident with External fire, ambulance and police at scene

[@jeffchandler7662]

They will have gone to their emergency action plan for this as it’s classed as a full emergency and not a local standby

[@john8033]

but why surely the fire engines at the airport can cope otherwise there is a serious lack of provision surely

[@1947dave]

@@john8033 Airport fire services have to be able to handle this incident (whatever happens) and also maintain enough cover for a second incident should it occur at the same time. If that was in doubt, the regional fire brigade would immediately attend, if only for backup. My guess is that's what happened here.

[@EnjoyFirefighting]

they take less emergency vehicles to a real emergency landing than they would show up with at ICAO fire and rescue drills at airports here in Germany

[@oliverterry7778]

German frs is very different to England, you will never see the convoys here that you see in Germany. Germany seem to have a lot more resources overall compared to some services in the uk.

[@EnjoyFirefighting]

@@oliverterry7778 even at normal scale drills German departments roll out with lots of units; Largest drill however was in an entirely different dimension: scenario was a crash of 2 planes, resulting in 500 patients; They had more than 400 emergency vehicles with a manpower of 1500 responding to a drill, while keeping up business as usual and covered local emergencies at both the airport and the city at the same time

[@JurivonStolzenberg14]

My brother at German Volunteer firbrigade has more sophisticated equipment than my local professional IN uk . In fermamy we also have rhe THW- TECH HILFSWERK, which has all sorts of winches and cranes and other mechanical rescue vehicles. Far superior.

[@jamesmasztalerz5930]

Must have been something major for Airport fire brigade to request additional support from local stations

[@A350DUKK]

It wasn’t that major but there was a chance that the engine would explode or catch fire

[@dannywright833]

Great footage pal 👍

[@sebby324]

Nice video Btw the 7700 is a squawk code it just means they have declared a general emergency 😊

[@MP-qr5ts]

yes. not pan-pan or mayday.

[@firefighterleetiktok85]

Wowzer... seems so overkill with the added Airport FRS - before attacks happen I'm full time Firefighter and often get called to Farnborough as it's on my patch but nowhere near the amount of pumps, police and ambo the JET2 gets.

[@fireresponsetv]

The PDA varies throughout each service. The PDA in gmc is 4 pumps command unit and TRU. it usually gets the HART team aswell most times.

[@firefighterleetiktok85]

@@fireresponsetv 4 Pumps is the same with us plus the few extra's like a water carrier, 1 ambo and then HART, law to their own where and when they go LOL 9/10 the aircraft has landed by the time we turn out or arrive on field, we literally do a big circle. to the RVP.

[@SuperBarnaby12]

Yes, total overkill. What a waste of resources. Airport fire could handle any emergencies without all that lot.

[@PSI-qf8bq]

​​@@SuperBarnaby12Having witnessed first hand the aftermath of Manchester 1985. The terrible sights and smells, which are never forgotten. No resources sent are over the top. Specialist resources whether police, fire rescue equipment, ambulance HART teams, mobile medical teams, and others. We only seem to learn after serious incidents.

[@GeorgeThoughts]

Oof you could tell that plane was full of fuel, that was a pretty heavy landing! Interesting that they come to a full stop on the runway to allow fire crews to check them, they don't even exit the runway and then stop. I suppose the idea being to check the engine ASAP as you don't want it to catch fire at the gate.

[@joshtaylor2594]

Hi 👋 what a fantastic 👏 video 📹 to watch Thank you 😊

[@robertdrinkall8947]

Look's like they'll have big trouble getting those Fire Engines down for a safe landing!

[@Chris-hy6jy]

Are you sure this wasn't just a training exercise? Planes make emergency landings at Manchester quite often and I can't imagine they have all these vehicles on standby each time, not at the airport.

[@fireresponsetv]

This was not a exercise. The pre determined attendance for a incident with a aircraft is quite large.

[@Chris-hy6jy]

@@fireresponsetv so you're saying every time an aircraft squarks 7700 and lands at Manchester, all those emergency vehicles turn up? Surely not.

[@fireresponsetv]

@Chris-hy6jy depends on the problem with the plane, if it a medical it will not but for anything technical it will

[@Chris-hy6jy]

@@fireresponsetv yes I guess it probably depends on the issue reported by the pilot and the chance of an actual "crash landing". I listen to Manchester ATC quite a lot and emergency landings probably happen at least once a week. Most are technical issues and I'd be surprised if all those vehicles were called for each. Maybe there was something specific about this landing that required the extra response. Hopefully someone will chime in with what the emergency was 👍

[@lightningpete]

@@Chris-hy6jy Youd be suprised Chris. Former NEAS here. Most of the issues we got given ETHANE messages for them. Newcastle Airport was a minimum of 6 NEAS resources [doesnt matter the resource] sometimes HART showed up if they were bored. Although generally the Airport Police -=manned by the Areas normal Police forces, would usually deal with it themselves Fire would generally have sufficient at the airport but command units and a spare pump travelled

[@johnwalker5958]

Great vid 👌

[@aljack1979]

If it could be a large scale accident then local emergency services with rendezvous at a specific area, normally an access gate to the runway. Ready to be called forward

[@williammorrissey3069]

Looks like a test or do people just stand around all day on corners filming

[@liamcummins1004]

So after all those emergency services turn up not one is used and they still use the airport fire service Not sure why so many police were needed what they gonna do arrest the fire?

[@TIMBOWERMAN]

Fire tenders were prominent at the airport, I saw one fire engine and half a dozen fire tenders which are faster and more powerful. 10:43

[@bobradamus]

Nice work on the video mate, great to do the collab 👍🏻

[@MRCAGR1]

5:04 and the earlier HART blue lights. They should have stayed back as at least two cars went over the stop line when the lights were red. The fact that an emergency vehicle was coming behind them with blues is not a defence. East Midlands Ambulance Service are told specifically to wait for green lights if there’s a queue of traffic that they cannot pass. There are red light cameras in parts of Leicester where drivers have been prosecuted and the fact there’s an emergency vehicle behind them that they crossed the stop line was not a defence.

[@1947dave]

Yes but you may be able to successfully appeal a penalty if it's a minor transgression putting no-one at risk, especially if you have video evidence to support your case. No guarantees here but plenty of such appeals have succeeded in the past.

[@MRCAGR1]

@@1947dave unfortunately in Leicester they don’t take that into account under any circumstances.

[@johnabbott2575]

Yeah well I for one would rather get a fine and let fire or ambulance pass on blue lights than make them wait 2 vital minutes and people may die stupid authoritie rule

[@1947dave]

@@MRCAGR1 In that case, the citizens of Leicester should be getting together to challenge that policy - by way of the media if necessary. Commonsense (EDIT 'public interest') seems to have gone missing from whoever decided such an inflexible policy.

[@MRCAGR1]

@@1947dave alternatively we could do as they do in the states and have a device to switch red lights to green on approach to the junction. To be honest, even for blue light ambulances travelling to hospital the slight delays if they’re caught in traffic won’t impact too much on their patients. From the outskirts of Leicester to the hospital there are 25 sets of lights including pelican crossings, I know because I counted them on my way into work in A&E some 10 years ago.

To shut the runway

[@elrekplaysgames4701]

so does that mean Manchester Airport does not have its own fire units?

[@fireresponsetv]

They do, although neighbouring services provide support

[@paulclark9835]

All airports have own fire service however if captain requests full emergency with outside resources then he calls it in. If he doesn't think it warrants full emergency then it is stood down to airport services only. It also goes with type of mayday call. Could be medical or fire on board or faulty readings. There are alot of factors to take into account. Giving this was a heavy fuel landing then common sense prevails that it's a full emergency.

[@mipamat5804]

The UK Emergency vehicles have the worse/weakest sirens in Europe, I suppose its all about noise pollution. The rapid two tones merge together when in built-up areas with all the echos. The slower European sirens are much easier to hear and react to.

[@Trevor_Austin]

his was an abnormal situation. One where I suggest that after the checklist/s have been run the aircraft could arrive at a convenient base for passenger handling, aircraft maintenance, crew rotation and passenger care. If you are over Norfolk with a real emergency you have Stansted, Heathrow, Southend, Gatwick, Birmingham, Humberside and East Midlands (not Leeds) all closer. But the crew chose to fly to Manchester. Airports don’t work like that though. They will turn any drama into a crisis if for no other reason that airliners are so reliable and their systems so robust they don’t get to push the big red button very often. So given an abnormal situation, they’ll kick the arse of it and escalate it into an emergency. They also just love playing the “you can never be too careful” routine and would have had important people (PR people, Airport Spokeswoman, DEI manager, Director of Lived experience etc.) called in with their clipboards and brand new, sparkling HiViz jackets to tell everyone how an an impending catastrophe was only averted by their highly trained emergency handling teams. Meanwhile the crew did as they had been trained. I bet they were in the descent over Derby thinking that this was easier than being in the simulator. Meanwhile, the airport staff would have had to have had the next week off because of emotional stress, soiled underwear, PTSD, etc.

[@Chris-hy6jy]

Haha! So true! Any excuse for the "working from home brigade" to jump in their cars and put the blue lights on.

[@fireresponsetv]

There apart of the PDA, they don't control if they were to be attached to the incident or not for the pre determined attendance

[@nosleeppete5146]

I always thought that big airports, and especially major ones like Manchester had the fire service to cover (potential) emergencies on site. It appears not. Worrying for passengers I guess but the owners will pocket the cash and be happy.

There's emergency services based at Manchester airport including 2 fire stations. GMFRS provide added support
