Propeller Of Flight 529 Broke Off And Lead To Horrific Crash | On The Move

On 21 August 1995, a blade on the left-side propeller of Atlantic Southeast Airlines Flight 529 breaks off. The imbalance of the rotating propeller causes the engine to partly tear itself from its mounting, creating excessive drag. The aircraft rapidly loses altitude and crashes, killing nine people. Chlorine deposits in the blade led to the development of corrosion pits and fatigue cracks, causing it to weaken and break.

I used to be an ASA pilot. Matt was the #1 First Officer in the company. He’s a really nice guy. What a lot of people don’t know is that Matt was only with the company for 6 months before this accident happened. Because of what happened to Captain Gannaway Matt was always very insistent that his Captains always wear their shoulder harnesses.

When the Skunk works was building the Sr71 and dealing with titanium, they found the welds to be failing when testing in the summer but not so in the winter. What they found was using water to clean the welds during the summer, the water had extra chlorine and contaminated the titanium causing the failures.

Two pilots and a flight attendant are all heroes in my book, including the passengers, residents, and medical staff. Also, hello to the stunningly beautiful Greg Feith. He really stole my heart.

[@peterpedersen1641]

Just amazing. The pilots did an amazing job. Surviving pilot, Matt Warmerdam, is a hero, as was the PIC, Capt Galloway. All would have perished on impact if those two had not been at the controls. I have flown small planes since sitting on my dad's lap at 4 years old, flying a Piper Cub. We crashed a different tail dragger when I was around 12 years old. It is an odd feeling when you know you are in trouble but can't do anything about it. All these passengers were also brave to get through the initial failure and subsequent crash. There is nothing you can do until the crashing and banging stops and you can get out of there. Sad the fire broke out the way it did. A seriously good video showing the results of the actions of everyone involved.

[@HobbyOrganist]

Having been burned in a workplace fire a year ago I know what the burn victims went thru, in my case it was only 2nd degree burns mostly on one arm which needed skin grafts, of course the graft comes from another part of your body which creates another wound than in my case hurt worse than the arm burn. 2-3 days in the hospital and 6 weeks recovering at home, multiple trips 4 hours each way for followup treatments, dressing changes, physical therapy. The skin is NEVER the same again, nerve endings and sweat glands get damaged/destroyed, so part of my grafted area is semi numb, another part ithe skin s very delicate and tight.

Very good documentary with outstanding recreations of the crash. One thing I hope all flyers remember... wear suitable clothing! Wool, cotton, long pants and sleeves are a must to maximize your odds. Stay away from clothes that melt and stick to your crispening skin. More than 90% of crash victims survive impact. And remember... you know how long it takes to shuffle out of the plane when arriving at the gate. Now try that after everyone has been terrorized, shaken and stirred. Your survival and that of others around you depend on you keeping your head and following the flight crew's directions.

This show is amazing. It has hundreds of episodes (the FAA guy is on a lot of them) and if they have the information, they go over the flight for nearly the entire episode before concluding with what went wrong. If they don't have the information (i.e. the woman writing a goodbye letter, the flight attendant shutting the windows and having the conversation, etc) then they do their best with the information that has been found to recreate it, but it might only be 10 minutes before it's 40 minutes of explaining how the plane was found, the tests, etc. I've loved it since I first saw it years and years ago.

It's not that simple. Where would the Atlanta controller have sent them? The airport's fire trucks don't leave the field by much and go out into the countryside. And do you honestly believe it would have made a massive difference? Even IF the firefighters had been staged and geared up, they still wouldn't have likely made it in time to help much. This movie makes it seem as if the clock was ticking by the minute, while in reality all this happened within seconds. Time compression is real.

Kerosene and fire: if you have to land without a landing gear and on any terrain like a forest, with an engine broken down, then this kerosene in the plane is useless anyway. So it should be expelled urgently and drain out of the aircraft before the impact... why hasn't the aviation industry designed such systems today?

[@pieterpretorius1014]

its called fuel dumping. fuel dumping is mostly used on larger planes like the Boeing and Airbus airplanes. Airplanes like the Embraer shown in this video probably doesn't have such a system because the manufacturer didn't deem it necessary. And besides what about the ecological impact that comes from dumping that fuel? kerosene or any type of other fuel can do a lot of damage to the environment even if it atomizes, eventually it will still hit the ground and cause something bad to happen

[@country_flyboy]

@@pieterpretorius1014 If fuel dumping is deemed as necessary, the safety of the flight takes precedent over everything else, including environmental factors. Another thing to consider is the weight and space of a fuel dump system. On some aircraft, the weight of a fuel dump system changes the weight and balance beyond acceptable limits. It also depends on the specifications set by both the government and the consumers.

[@zachblundeto7137]

You can still fly even without propellers. Just glide it down

[@possumverde]

For a simple engine failure(s) yes. In this situation however, the aerodynamics of the left wing had been severely compromised by the damage from the engine blowing apart. The entire wing was essentially contributing nothing but extreme drag. As a result, they were pretty much trying to fly a one winged plane. The fact that the pilots were able to maintain enough control to crash land with no immediate deaths is pretty amazing.

The fire problem could be easily solved by designing the entire thing as an airframe with inset jettisonable fuel containers (flush with the surface, leaving a cavity after separation) and engines (attached with explosive bolts) such that the pilot could turn the entire plane into a lightweight glider, or keep just a minimal fuel tank for landing, to discard just a few seconds before landing.... But that's right, corporate profits would not allow that.

there's also the factor of those parts affecting the overall weight-balance of the aircraft, there was a vid of one guy losing the prop on his single-engine racing plane, engine revved super high, resulting in it blowing up, nearly ripping the engine out the mounts, bird immediately nosed up from the prop-loss, and that would have been WAY worse had he lost the whole engine..
