Overloaded Plane Fails To Climb After Takeoff

[@lbowsk]

Most of the statements about the 727 being overloaded and unable to climb are just BS. This type of takeoff profile in a 727 is not unusual when the plane is at higher weights and/or from certain high elevation runways and/or weather conditions. IOW, it may not be "overloaded" at all. At hot, high-density altitude airports, abnormally low or high flap setting takeoffs may be appropriate given the available runway length. They can however, give you a lousy initial vertical profile. Bringing the flaps up in a 727 was a bit more work than today's planes. We kept the vertical speed between 1-300 feet per min to maximize acceleration. Going from F15 to a clean wing used up a lot of real estate when heavy. You didn't simply say "Flaps Up" and then blast off toward cruise altitude like you do now. When I flew it for brand X, we flew climb profiles just like this one often in the summer. It depended on the length of the runway available, the temp, field elevation, aircraft weight, and any possible obstructions within the clearway zone off the end of the runway. The goal is to use the flap setting and profile that allowed you to carry the maximum weight for a given runway/ temp/elevation/runway obstacle profile. Old swept-wing jets simply did not have the amazing vertical takeoff performance of today's big-ass high bypass fanjets. But, they'd sure get you to the bar a hell of a lot quicker! On the 27, cruising at .84 was nothing. .86-.87 was easy on most of them. Every once in a while, you'd see .89. Today? Maybe .82. Some of our airplanes were certified to operate at different Zero Fuel Weights. And with the A/B (high/low Zero Fuel Weight) switch on the airspeed indicator, you could sometimes see 400 KIAS. The A/B switch would manually raise the Maximum indicated airspeed by as much as 40 knots Indicated Air Speed and Vmo. The 27 may have been the coolest jet I've ever flown. Pure fun. (Except when it wasn't) ;) And to be honest, blasting across the landscape at high speed and relatively low altitude is fun. It does not mean the airline is inept, that the pilots did something wrong, that they're hauling a million pounds of coke or any other reason. They're just trying to take off as heavy as they legally can from a short, high runway on a hot day. It's simple economics. All airlines do it. If they were flying modern jets with high-bypass fans, I doubt that anyone would even know about them. They also would have kept that 727 out of the fence. A lot of peeps commenting on aviation-specific YT are flat-out wrong. There were other factors such as a Tailwind take off, incorrect V-Speeds, and a too-slow rate of rotation that doomed that jet FAR more than just being overweight. Old DC9s and 727s when heavily (legally) loaded in HOT weather and at HIGH elevations (can you say South America for MOST of the year) simply did not have the vertical profiles of today's fan jets. The higher, the hotter, the heavier, the closer you are to the cows off the far end. It's not really a big deal no matter what you read here.

[@serg2963]

Many people commenting on these 72 (and other old school planes) videos need to read and understand what you said here! Nothing wrong with that profile!

[@germanlondono8700]

Thank you so much for clarifying. That airline has already a fame for their "overloaded" planes, and every video about them shows the same: this climbing profile, on a 727, taking off from an airport in a very hot, humid city, such as this one from Yopal (it's not "El Yopal" just Yopal). I'm from Colombia and I know how that climate on those cities is. I wonder if there's ever a video of these planes taking off from here, from Bogotá, where we are at high-altitude (2.600m over sea level) and with normal temperatures (14C on average). What I do hate about those 727s is the noise they make.

[@Jack-xo2zp]

In the late 60s and early 70s, I used to watch 727s and DC9s take off from Miami International, and it always seemed like they were shooting up at 45 degree angles. Are you saying those planes were mostly empty?

Calling taking off overweight normal is an idiot's perspective on what is happening here.

It's amazing seeing that hovering optical illusion. I thought planes were actually doing that when I was a kid. These crosswind takeoff and landings are very impressive to watch!

[@culcune]

I grew up in Chicago and took many trips with my family to O'Hare to drop off or pick up relatives, and often this optical illusion took effect and freaked me out a bit.

[@kellyrobinson1780]

Yeah, my first time seeing that illusion was as a kid, too. My mom was no scientist, but she explained it was our eyes playing tricks because the plane was moving a certain way, and we were moving another, and if we stopped so would the illusion. I couldn't figure out the specifics, of course, but her explanation made sense. After all, I saw trees and bushes and phone poles an people and houses all going past, and I knew that regardless of what it LOOKED like, THEY weren't moving, WE were; and they all appeared to be moving at different speeds, but THAT couldn't be true because we could only move one speed at a time. So THAT was an illusion based on distance. So if the plane was movinga certain way, and we were moving a certain way, and we were a certain distance apart, I could understand how it might LOOK like the plane was hanging in mid air. Satisfied with that, I watched it until it "started moving again", and moved on. But it was neat to watch, especially because conditions had to be just right, and that didn't happen often.🤓

[@DavidDavid-fp6gv]

The air sucre takeoff is not overweight it’s actually procedure for short field take off. They use a large degree of flaps and so they take off at a lower speed than normal. The reason they stay near the ground is to take advantage of ground effect which allowed them to fly at a lower airspeed than normal. Once they gain enough airspeed they begin the climb like normal

[@david9192]

The overloaded 727 was so lucky to make it. Overloading a plane is no joke it's what killed Jim Tweto in flying wild Alaska and it was hot mid day on the side of a mountain and he might of had a tailwind but it was the only way to takeoff from that spot. He had one hunter bear parts and camping equipment. In his modified Cessna 180 but it wasn't enough. 😢
