Gotta love the laconic Australian accents throughout this fine clip. Sounds like a few blokes organising to meet up at the pub. Professional yet unconcerned. And yes, I am an Australian.

I have to say that I absolutely love this channel. Seeing other planes helps with broader context, the attention to detail with everything (flight path!) is also super great. Keep it up!!

Luckly working on Embrear landing gear is pretty simple but damn if i dont hate those planes.

Out of pure curiosity, since the pilots had to burn fuel anyway, were they required to just fly in circles around the airport, or they could also just fly around in random directions enjoying their plane, as well as make a small "sightseeing" trip while burning the fuel to make this unfortunate situation slightly more bearable for the passengers? I assume the answer is they had to fly in circles, but still worth asking Thanks

Instead of flying in random directions that might change anytime, a circlular holding pattern is more manageable for the ATC while reducing the risk of accidents

Why did they need to burn fuel? Why not just land as soon as the landing gear was working?
@Haywood-Jablomie Жыл бұрын
for multiple reasons, if they land and the plane is too heavy they could possibly bend the fuselage. also if they have too much fuel, then the plane will be too difficult to stop because the fuel shift forward and then they have the chance of over running the runway. Sometimes, although not in this specific situation, some pilots will burn more fuel to lessen the chances of an explosion in case of a crash landing.

Aircraft have two important weights--max takeoff weight and max landing weight, and both should be complied with. On shorter duration flights, the max takeoff weight is limted by adding the fuel burn A-to-B to the max landing weight, which is the max the aircraft can takeoff with, operate A-to-B (consuming that fuel) and land at lax landing weight. Since the aircraft could not operate A-to-B, it was thus overweight to land back at "A" and had to burn the now excess fuel to get below max landing weight. Older aircraft designs (707, DC-8, 727, 747, DC-10/L10-11) had provisions for a fuel jettisoning system) but there is no requirement on newer twins, that's why they can't dump fuel.

@@Haywood-Jablomie It's never going to bend the fuselage it's just good practice. Landing about MLW is mainly a braking consideration. You could easily land an E-Jet at MTOW in Darwin, there was just no need to. Overweight landings aren't quite as dramatic as you think.

It took just over 40 seconds to give all that info - the date, location, aircraft, route, airline, and dry lease details plus a small amount of context around each of them. If he put that in a chart, you would have to pause the video for like 40 seconds to read it. What a ridiculous and unproductive thing to take time to type a comment about to a KZbinr with 50k subs
