Kinda suprise they didn't ask a crewmember to confirm if there's a fire. It would have been done very quickly with how small the aircraft is.

[@Kiwijr2579]

They didn't even inform the Flight Attendant of the situation so it seems that their communication was pretty much non-existent.

When will pilots learn to pull back the throttle and verify which engine before cutting fuel? I do like your presentation, not too loud or over dramatized. Keep up the good work.

[@colin8696908]

Captain: Which handle did you pull. First officer: Yes.

[@goneracing1646]

Ok, we have two engines, and two fire handles. One engine is on fire... time to pull both handles and then not lower the landing gear, obviously.

[@atrainentertainment8475]

Thank you for the awesome content!

[@MrBsbotto]

Okay I have the attention span of a gnat but I didn't notice any mention of landing gear being down? Could that have helped or not relevant? Or maybe that quick thinking pilot shut both engines and then went for the hat trick by retracting the gear?

[@jasoncentore1830]

I didn't either, but in a no engine approach keep gear up and flaps at a clean configuration, that will glide you much farther, in this instance he was so close, the gear down would have made the difference

[@fiegenfiegen]

Looking at the plane's pictures with the gear down, it does not look as it would have cushined the impact much...

[@johnnyboro9558]

on this plane the rear landing gear is basically always deployed. it's probably part of the reason this plane survived the crash as well as it did

[@sailaab]

happy decade-ing ..of making such fruitful, crisp, informative and well presented capsule videos😊

[@fiegenfiegen]

I flew that exact route and on that exact plane model (maybe even the same plane) about 21-22 years ago. It was quite a ride, with steep ascent and descent rates, lots of bumps in the fight... It felt very unsafe indeed, but I have to give that it has been my only flight in a smaller, propeller-powered plane.

[@BLACKMONGOOSE13]

"The airline was also blamed for the crash." The airline should have been the only one blamed. The fact that they stopped perations after the crash tells us all we need to know.

[@DonalMountain]

Eh, that rhetoric seems like a bit of reach, tbh. There are very good reasons to blame the airline. But the copilot is still also to blame, he didn’t follow procedure. He switched off an engine for no good reason.

[@taketimeout2share]

@@DonalMountain Actually he has a point. What is more worrying is that Iberia, a huge state Airline, didn't make sure the flying and maintenance protocols were up to the standards of other European airlines. That it was closed down suggests there were more problems it didn't want to be discovered. Thats bad enough but then they buy it back and one wonders if they just carried on as before. This is supposition, of course , but it makes one wonder why they didn't just set everything right and then continue flying with a better regime in place.

[@jasoncentore1830]

Shutting down your good engine was brilliant. Black Mongoose 13 is correct the Airline is the only one to blame. No training??? Even McDonald's gives you a few weeks of training

[@MovieMakingMan]

Thanks for the interesting video. I don’t understand how two experienced pilots couldn’t tell if their engines were running. You’d think the silence would have given them a hint (as well as their instruments). And why didn’t the pilots simply look at the engines to look for smoke or fire? Strange accident that should never have happened.

[@danieleregoli812]

[@magicalflyer]

Is there any further information as to why the F/O accidentally shutdown both engines? At first I thought that lack of training doesn't really explain that since I imagined the engine fire handles would be clearly marked and sufficiently spaced (like in Boeing planes, for example) to prevent the pilots from accidentally activating both of them, but when I looked at CN-235 cockpit pictures I couldn't find where the engine fire handles are. Could it be that their design/placement in the cockpit can be confusing for new pilots?

[@luisito6314]

How does the CAPTAIN not realize the FIRST OFFICER turned off the wrong engine!!! How do you let 2 complete clowns fly with passengers??!!!

[@beenaplumber8379]

The captain was watching the runway. They were on short final, and that's what the pilot flying does. The first officer made a horrible mistake while handling the emergency. He hadn't received adequate training, but he also had a lapse of attention in an extremely high-stress situation - engine fire on short final. Any emergency at that point is incredibly stressful, and the workload is immense during a critical phase of flight. They weren't acting like clowns. The FO made a horrible mistake, and he has to live with that, along with the families of those who died.

[@GOLDVIOLINbowofdeath]

The minute I saw the photograph of the crashed plane I knew that the passengers and the cabin crew must not have been notified of the pending crash. Since I doubted that there could be four fatalities just in the cockpit, and the rest of the plane looked totally survivable. The plane that Sully was piloting came very close to drowning passengers, because he two did not notify the cabin crew that he was ditching the plane in the water. Excuses were made for him and by him that there wasn’t time to notify the cabin crew, which is not true. It is one of the reasons that he and the copilot were held up in a hotel room for three days getting their story straight and leading there hero status grow before emerging to do a debriefing, which would normally be done within minutes of the crash, if the pilots had no injuries.

Iv'e said this on other channels ,, Why isn't there a camera on the tailplane so you can see stuff ,one each side looking back at the engines too ,,How hard could it be ??

[@beenaplumber8379]

That's being done now on some modern planes. Camera installations are modifications of the airframe, and they can't do that on existing passenger planes without extensive testing.

[@timothyhh]

Why did the FO pull BOTH fire handles though? That makes no sense.

[@MWHM2]

Thank you so much for this video. I had no idea it had to do with Melilla as I just happened to click on it, but my family is from there so we used to travel each year to see my grandparents in the summer. I always remembered that before Air Nostrum was put in place by Iberia, we flew in the 90s with Iberia from Brussels on their A319/320/321 to Madrid or Malaga and then on an airline with a green logo (I have a photogenic memory) but for the life of me couldn't find the name of it. I now know it was this airline! Finally can put an end to this mistery I had since I was a little child! Also flying into Melilla is most of the times quite scary, as they use smaller turboprop planes and there's always a lot of turbulence. I can remember that on these planes the flight was horrible, it literally was like a rollercoaster ride. Later on with the Air Nostrum/Iberia ATR72-500 and 600 this issue was resolved and made the flight much more enjoyable, as the 600 is truly an enjoyable regional turboprop. Did you also know that they once had plans to fly the A318 from mainland europe to Melilla? It was cancelled last minute as studies showed that the final turn to align with the runway would cause a lot of noise related issues (from the beach you can literally throw something to the plane on final approach as they are that low).

This is so frustrating. No training. FO freaked out and killed both engines. 🤬

[@davepedu5896]

sounds like they pulled the Death Lever. But why did the plane have that feature available?

[@arbiter1er]

The engine fire lever both cuts out any fuel flow to the engine and starts the extinguishers in the engine. It's the fastest way to get an engine to extinguish. (on some aircraft, the extinguisher system is a separate switch. But on all planes, the fire lever always cuts off fuel flow)

Can pilots take initiative and get flight simulator training on emergency on there own???

[@beenaplumber8379]

No, not at all. Sim training is very expensive. Around 1990-91 it was $400-$600 per hour (probably double that now), and I don't know if that included the company instructor. I think that was just sim rental & sim techs operating it. Regional pilots could never afford it on their own.

[@jeremydennis6988]

@@beenaplumber8379 thank you very much for telling me or teaching me.

[@macaylacayton2915]

ok, I was thinking it could have been the outside temperature compared to the inside temperature of the engine so I went and searched specs related to that and because they only had specs for the CN-235-300(not the CN-235-200) I had to use the CN-235-300 for the information. The ambient temperature the engine can withstand varies depending on situation, and since I don't understand these terms I will need someone to come and further explain these terms. ok the heat specs are as follows:in APR it can withstand up to an ambient temperature of 38.5 Celsius(I am not converting any of these FYI), during takeoff the engines can withstand an ambient temperature up to 38.5 Celsius, at maximum continuous flight the engines can withstand up to an ambient temperature of 41 Celsius, and during maximum cruise the engines can withstand an maximum ambient temperature of 15 Celsius. and considering the end location can reach into the 44 degrees Celsius, I can see it being the temperature difference.
