Seen the coring team at work once, they were trying to get a sample of the sub base on a road, and had cored down half a metre through layer upon layer of top material, before they finally came to the sub grade layer. That road had been getting layers of top wear course added every few years since it was built, because the ground had subsided a little with time, and the swamp had been drained. Plenty of roads have thick wear courses, because they simply got overlaid with new, and the crown increased, and every decade or so the pavements were relaid higher. Old pictures from the 1930's of the building i lived in had a set of stairs at the front, now the pavement is level with the top step of the building, stairs all buried. Where I currently live 3 steps down from street level, for the same reason.

[@akashiseijuro5216]

Unfortunately, a good amount of those safety technologies came at a price.

[@evanstedman7405]

2:34 is also why when landing in wet weather the landing is harder than normal as the pilot is intentionally landing at a higher than normal speed and at a steeper angle than normal. This helps minimise the hydroplaning because the water is driven out from between the tyre and the runway by the increased forces.

[@BloodyMobile]

There's way to little appreciation for all the work that goes into making everyday stuff safe and reliable. Thinking about it, it's obvious that there's a plane equivalent of "guard rails", but until now I didn't think about it, let alone know it exists on top of that :o

Great post as usual. But you buried the lead!!

Thankfully, no casualties. But certainly one of L.A.'s most notorious aircraft incidents.

[@chimrichalds5205]

Huh, I forgot about that and only remember the Southwest Midway overrun. Very similar scenario with short runway(s) in a terrible location.

[@AdeleiTeillana]

That's not burying the lede. Burying the lede (or lead if you use the older spelling) is mentioning the details but doing it in a way that "buries" them deep in the story rather than emphasizing them. I don't think he mentioned these details at all, (though granted I was doing other stuff while listening) so that doesn't fall under the definition of burying the lede. But even if he had mentioned those details, I wouldn't consider them to be the "lede". I think they were just ancillary to the actual point of the video, which was just to discuss the various methods that airports can and do use to slow down planes when necessary. This wasn't a video about Bob Hope airport or the EMAS at Bob Hope airport or the accident at Bob Hope airport, so those details can't be the lede.

For the sake of precision, hydroplaning is different from, and actually a lot more interesting than, simply losing traction or friction because of water. Hydroplaning happens when water gets in front of/under your tires _faster than the weight of the vehicle can displace it_ . The incompressability and pressure of the water raises your tires completely out of contact with the driving surface and they end up skimming across the top of the thin later of water, like a water-skiier skimming across a lake. You're actually driving on top of the water, causing a potential complete loss of control or ability to brake in an acceptable fashion. It's super dangerous, but still very interesting from a physics perspective.

The GO is safe provided a pilot decides to perform one. Regretfully, some pilots try hard to land anyway, even when overshoot the touchdown zone. We see the results in the news only when they stop beyond the runway, fortunately very seldom cases.

[@dieseldragon6756]

EMAS looks like a fantastic invention - Not just for its ability to _stop_ a runaway aircraft quickly and safely, but also for the fact it still provides a firm base over which to evacuate safely. EMAS stops aircraft, doors thrown open, slides deployed, everybody slides _over_ the damaged section of EMAS and then runs to safety. This gets a 100% from me! 💯✈👍

While friction between the wheels and the runway provide most of the breaking, passenger aircraft still have reverse thrust from the engines they can use for breaking that doesn't rely on friction. Planes can still land on slippery surfaces (within limits )but the aircrew needs to know the conditions so they can plan for it.

An expensive but possibly good idea is to have layers of material so that a smaller plane (private jet) will not slam to a halt and a larger plane (747) will still stop due to stronger, higher resistance materials on the bottom.

Southwest Airlines flight 1455 on March 5th, 2000 went off the end of the runway and famously came to a stop at a gas station across the street. It's an amazing testament to the constant culture of improvement how different the later Southwest incident was due to this barrier system--though one wonders about Southwest's lack of improvement...

They'll sink several feet down into it and it can stop them in the length of about five transfer trailer trucks.
