My father travelled extensively for his business. One of his journeys, way back in early 70s, was on an Aeroflot flight from Jakarta to Moscow. He told me how a ceiling panel cracked and how a crew member stood on his seat and gaffatapped the crack quite nonchalantly. None of the mainly Russian passengers even paid any attention and the whole operation was completed with as much fuss as if serving someone a drink. A week later he was supposed to fly back… same route, same plane… however he had some misgivings about that plane and instead changed his flight via Paris. Just as well, that plane crashed somewhere enroute. Goes to show… listen to those gut feelings. 😂 Glad to see u survived the experience 😊

Great video, thank you. Reminds me of the early eighties when I took a Uganda Airlines 707 from Nairobi to Entebbe. It seemed to be a home-converted, full passenger to combi plane. On this flight passengers were seated in the rear of the empty, curtained off freight area which was acting like an amplified drum. After a very shakey take-off we gained altitude and the guy in the seat ahead of me leant on his arm rest which promptly fell off into the aisle. Unpeturbed a female crew picked up the armrest and, with a few deft taps, refixed it to the seat! I was tempted to enquire if she could do that if a wing fell off but I thought better of it!
@stanislavkostarnov2157
@stanislavkostarnov2157 11 ай бұрын
not sure about a wing, but a close older relative of mine recalled how when he often was a passenger on the slow and low Ilyushin 18 routes across "the north", they would have the flight engineer occasionally go outside (onto the struts) to clean the icing of the Pitot tubes and such equipment (apparently, wing de-icing was already a thing post 48, but not for the navigational equipment)

Your take off was on runway 34 and not 16 because you can see the old terminal on your side of the cabin. With the turnaround fillet as your marker, you still got quite a lot of spare runway remaining, which is normal for the short hop to Belitung/TanjungPandan. Anyways, Sriwijaya is a ghost of its former self. They were quite good in their first 5 years... ok up till 2015 ish, and they seem to have lost the plot since...

Sounds great but i wouldn't want to die transferring on that plane to get there. They should invest in a better plane and more people would probably go. Also teaching their fellow flight attendants about emergency landings while in flight is not the best thing i have heard for business. I don't think you have to worry about it being overrun so long as they don't improve the planes they fly. It was literally falling apart on the inside which may be even worse on the outside where it is open to more stress and the elements. I would say your gem is safe from invasion of we foreigners .

Because I have a feeling that this plane has around the same percentage of rescue resources per passenger Titanic did. 50/50

The issue with those old airplanes is not chronological age, but number of flight cycles because of pressurization/depressurization and metal fatigue. That was the main factor in that Aloha Airlines incident when about 30 feet of the aircraft skin peeled off like opening a can of soup. Landed safely in Maui but a flight attendant was lost. If that 737-500 was an old Continental Micronesia plane, I wouldn’t want to get on it.

The Aloha 737 was an early 737-200 which had a poor chemical lap joint bonding supplementing the riveting. In this case both were defective and the rivets also installed poorly in numerous patches, with the cracks finally joining up near the top of the fuselage. By tremendous luck, one critical fuselage piece was found lodged into the other engine cowling for investigation. The plane was also the leader of the global 737 fleet in flight cycles.

Wonderful video as always! I think you're quite brave. After watching the first take off, I had to pause the video and get myself a shot of Crown, LOL! I was on a domestic flight in Wisconsin that had to abort the takeoff for some reason. I was literally in tears until the gentleman sitting next to me, who was an aerospace engineer, explained to me what likely happened. I felt much better after he talked to me about that and was fine when the plane did takeoff attempt #2 and got airborne just fine. Hearing stuff like that calms me down really well. Every video I watch of yours makes me feel more excited and less anxious about resuming flying again. Yeah, I wouldn't mind at all flying on some vintage aircraft, but not if it only had a one star safety rating.

I flew with this airline Jakarta-Belitung and back. I had a window seat on the left above the wing. The row infront of me was missing the A seat, so it was bascially x-B-C aisle D-E-F. Worked out good as I could stretch my legs but it was an ancient 737. Not asure if it was the same plane you were on or the one that crashed but beedless to say when I landed back in Jakarta, I almost got down and kissed the tarmac. The flight itself was pretty comfortable from memory. The flights I took were back in 2012/2013.

Hi Noel, I hardly ever comment, but had to on your video. Been travelling to Bangka and Belitung several times for business reasons (reclamation of former tin mining sites) and took your flight probably 10+ times. Did not die, always had a great time. However, a couple of times I flew an older embraer which was quite a bumpy ride through tropic rain clouds. Must have been the nearest I had come to death in my life :) Fun fact: Australian mining company BHP Billiton was named after Island Belitung (Tanjung Pandan) you had your stopover!

I think that the long take off is a normal thing - the company is avoiding using take off thrust or similar setting in order to avoid extreme fuel consumption. I read somewhere that some much more famous companies do the same. Your flight was also more emply then full, so why not saving some fuel…

What is interesting, no matter where you fly in the world, is the similarities of the airports, and by that I mean the standardization of the runway markings, the adaption of US/European standards for how airports are laid out (from arrival through departures), and the stores and restaurants that are in them (KFC seems to be everywhere!).... Security, while similar, does appear to be very different around the world ... I noticed you went through 3 checkpoints on this run ... yet I somehow doubt that it was truly effective .... (love how you have been leaving the camera 'on' as it goes through the x-ray lately)..... I can see the subtle differences in the airports though -- and once you walk out those gates onto the street, the differences around the world are stark! Keep on flying sir! Many of us are traveling vicariously through your videos.....

This plane actually looks quite good in comparison with two B732 that I flew on two separate occasions a decade ago between SCU and HAV. They belonged to Air Global (or the other way around) and were on lease to Aerocaribbean (then a subsidiary of Cubana). They were literally falling apart, both externally and internally, and one of them made headlines a few years later when it crashed immediately after takeoff from Havana (then leased to Cubana), killing all but one person.

23:09 lol same reaction my brother and I had when we visited Indonesia. It means "cement" in Indonesian. Surely some Indonesian authority should know the confusion it would cause but they don't seem to care Quite a few Indonesian words are simplified English or Dutch words which is quite interesting. Apple for example is "Apel" and Coffee is "Kopi"

There are 5 737-500 operating in Canada, 1 by a charter company and 4 by Air North. I've flown aboard 2 of them between Vancouver and Whitehorse. The planes are old (some sport their original equipment, the lav signs are in various languages) but very comfy. Very kind crew and staff and great service though.

The take-off roll analysis is wrong. Since you departed from rwy 34, you actually had about 465 meters of runway left. You circled the wrong side.
@EGCC4284
@EGCC4284 Жыл бұрын
Taking out using most of the runway is not a problem. Must airlines use a derated take off thrust and utilise most of the runway in order to not use engines at maximum capacity. This is in order to try and reduce engine wear and tear. No point in hammering the engines and only using half a runway when you can be gentle on the engines and use all runway available. This is common practice in aviation. On the Airbus A320, we use a procedure of telling the aircraft the outside temperature is a lot higher than is really is. This tells the engine computers that the air outside is thin and don’t bother using as much power as it thinks it’s not suitable. This means engines are not being roasted and promotes engine life.
