The airplane that lost all engines was scrapped in 2009, they really should have put it in a museum instead :(

[@Rose_Butterfly98]

The damaged engine parts are in a museum

[@bomb8406]

@@Rose_Butterfly98 Yes, that is something of a consolation, though in my view it is still one of the finest examples of professional airmanship out there and ought to have merited preservation of the aircraft (in my view at least)

[@Rose_Butterfly98]

@@bomb8406 unfortunately 747s are really big , I doubt museums really want to keep those . They'll keep the first one ever built . Btw the plane itself had it's fuselage cut onto tags for the environmental group 10:10 , they were used to raise awareness and encourage companies to cut their carbon emissions by 10%. I guess since they wanted something for the museum and the plane was still in use for awhile longer they could only keep the damage parts. At least that's kinda the historically significant part of this, the quadruple engine flameout.

[@bomb8406]

@@Rose_Butterfly98Yes I'm aware of the tags, and yeah 747s aren't easy museum pieces, though at least there are a few museums in the UK that are now preserving some of BA's 744s now those have been retired

We've got a small problem, all four engines have stopped. LOL

@@Posavinac1925 It’s just British understatement. The Brits are renowned for remaining incredibly calm in situations where most would panic. There’s an example of this in Afghanistan when British troops were engaged in a joint firefight with US forces against the Taliban. US troops were shouting at one another, understandably stressed out by the situation, and then in the background you just hear a British officer say: “well, isn’t this fun lads?”-and then a chuckle. During the Falklands war when Royal Marines were taking heavy fire from Argentine forces, instead of returning fire, they ducked down behind cover, boiled some water and had a cup of tea. Arguably the most famous example of British understatement is the mild-mannered exchange between the Earl of Uxbridge and the Duke of Wellington, as the Earl’s leg was blown off by a canon during the Battle of Waterloo. The Earl reportedly remarked: “By God, Sir, I’ve lost my leg!” -to which the Duke of Wellington responded: “By God, Sir, so you have!”. There is also a video of British troops in Afghanistan on active deployment closing in on Taliban positions. As they are taking cover, they pause to discuss what DVD they’re going to watch later that evening 🙂

[@ElProfGringo]

On December 15, 1989 KLM Flight 867 from Amsterdam was descending into Anchorage International Airport when the Boeing 747-400 flew though a thick cloud of volcanic ash from Mount Redoubt. All four engines failed leaving only critical systems on backup electrical power. After descending more than 14,000 feet, Captain Karl van der Elst and crew were finally able to restart the engines and safely land the plane. In this case the ash caused more than $80 million in damage to the plane.

Where is the full episode. Link anyone?

[@n4_temps]

The beautiful phenomenon is caused by the plane flying over a volcano and what caused the engines failure is ashes coming inside the engines.

[@ludicrousspeed6422]

An engine can actually handle the smoke from a volcano just fine, the particles are small enough that they just pass through, what causes the failure is the lack of/too much of oxygen. Now I'm not entirely sure for a jet engine but that's what I've been told about piston engines and normally a jet engine can handle more small particles than a piston engine. I don't know the specifics or when the smoke becomes too much for a jet engine to handle, but I'm pretty sure that a jet engine can handle quite a bit of smoke.

[@ludicrousspeed6422]

Now before anyone tells me to stop being an armchair aviator or whatever, I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL AND DO NOT KNOW EVERYTHING. I MIGHT BE WRONG.

[@ludicrousspeed6422]

@Blob B oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh thanks. Now I know.

[@CCRider100]

@CFITOMAHAWK - Obviously many other countries have very good pilots, and not ONLY Brits have shown amazing pilot skills when needed, it would be silly to suggest otherwise. I was just stating that if on a plane with mechanical problems, a British crew would still be my first preference JMO of course. They are well trained, work as a team, and the Brits (in general not always of course) seem to have a different way of dealing with crisis.

many more harsh accidents besides this, but engine failure is a horrible problem. There even was an air crash with a KID being the pilot!

[@mrwigster2]

@tsubasapt Great to be British and keep some temperement. You know of another air crew who managed to achieve a similar feat?

[@novemberdelta1282]

A KLM flight that had the exact same situation minus the st. Elmo's fire?

[@2206411411]

That's an interesting piece of history. I'd not come across the origins of it. Mayday is the standard international distress call for aircraft in the same way SOS is for ships. (Or was, when morse was still used.) It's quick, difficult to mis-hear even for those who do not speak the same language, and then allows the pilot (or whoever) to communicate vital information without delay or interruption.

[@retromentality8868]

That one kid seams very excited that the Engine is on fire

[@pigeon901]

Watch the video.

[@44R0Ndin]

all engines off or failed is what is referred to as "dead stick" and all sailplanes and gliders are ALWAYS dead stick, but in a jet airplane it is a extreme problem because jets are have a much higher wing loading

where is part four.. what caused this

[@lewisb25]

02:40 "ladies and gentlemen.. we have a small problem" Don't think so because if a 747 lands on water all 4 engines act like a scoop which can cause the plane to break up more easily

[@carlfinkle]

Ladies and gentlemen we have a "SMALL" problem all four engines have failed, that what I call keeping your cool a very British response.

[@loveplane737]

wow!

[@CFITOMAHAWK]

@CCRider100 partially agreed. They are 3 ways of dealing with air crisis as I know. One by freezing or acting too slow in disbelief. Two by overreacting and acting too fast without thinking well. Three by a balance of the two and fighting fear with hell I'm going to fight this until the end. But for that, you have to be like a Boxer, fight the plane coordinated even if you are getting hurt by fear. Brits seldom overreact but do the right thing, sometimes freeze, but not as often as others.

[@adityarajsrivastava6580]

Pilots do a great job as they safely land the plane for those who don't know.British airways flight 9

[@leon6266]

@Rico8458 yeh u got the video of it

[@SkylaneCaptain]

@Rico8458 It's more than just a theory. Assuming there is a suitable landing area within reach....very good possibility given the gliding distance from 39,000 feet.....the landing should not be very different from any "normal" landing. Keep in mind that during every touch down the plane is essentially gliding in. Of course with no engines there is no go-around option but, other than that, if the approach is set up correctly, the physics are the same.

[@jeweljamesjapay]

The turbines are designed to suck in huge amounts of air, inside air is pressurized and added with fuel,etc. and thus making engines hot, the smoke ash are really volcanic rocks tiny bits of them, when in reached the internal engine it turned into a slimy molten goo and starts to choke the engines, a tail fire is caused when the engine burns with less oxygen

[@LolAtUrMomTits]

Oh My God! We lost all engines. Oops! I'm bad, it was just the Intercom light blinking.

[@CFITOMAHAWK]

@CCRider01 What about TACA 110 in 1988. They put the 737 on a field in thunderstorms without scratching the airplane. Airplane is still flying. Or The Gimly Glider, or the Transat that glided onto The Azores Island. None of them were Brits. They were Spanish and French, yes French the last two. So was the Baghdad DHL in 2003, landed without flight controls after been hit by a SAM.

[@tomstravels520]

CFITOMAHAWK the transat one the pilots partially caused the problem by not trusting the computer systems and pumping fuel into where the leak was instead of pumping it away from it

[@peoples0n_]

Why is the Plane coverd with blue stuff

[@legmanpv72]

the Aussie dad was an idiot, you don't allow your child to sleep on the floor of the aircraft inbetween the seats, firstly the seats are bolted down with steel struts and if it started rolling around while he was still asleep he would of hurt his had possibly fracturing it, very lucky

[@Tallandcharming]

This plane was uffering from homoashspartican symptoms which is when small flakes of high temperature ash starve the fuel of the ability to burn which stopped the engines. It's common in areas of Asia but not normally for that long.
