Plane Takeoff Failures Caught On Camera

[@andrewcrowder4958]

The Royal Air Morocco incident at Frankfurt was an incidence of great airmanship and professionalism. A wingtip vortex from a plane landing on another runway robbed the Moroccan plane of lift. The pilot lowered the nose, picked up more speed, and successfully rotated the aircraft. After the incident, clearance and departure procedures at Frankfurt were changed.

Instead it took a precious 2.5 min trying to line up with 3 other airports that were further away, only to realize they ran out of altitude / energy. He didn't even get to the best glide speed for several minutes. I know it's not fashionable to detract from what the media created, but these are facts not in dispute. Ask him. He's humble enough to tell the truth, but they wouldn't let him. Regardless, I have set up the problem in a Level D sim and landed feet dry back at La Guardia every time, as have others.

[@JimThomas-qt5mt]

Chesley B. Sullenberger was a flight instructor, an airline accident investigator, an F-4 pilot in the United States Air Force, and, maybe most relevant to the landing in the Hudson River, a GLIDER PILOT.

[@justforever96]

So he knows how to fly a glider. How does that help you fly a jet as a glider? Gliders are designed to glide, jets aren't. His training on military and commercial aircraft was a lot more useful than his experience as a glider pilot. Gliders fly like any aircraft, the special techniques you learn involve using thermals to sustain flight. And they are really good at sustaining flight, being very light and with lightly loaded, high aspect ratio wings. Other aircraft fly exactly the same way, just not as far. You just trade altitude for speed. If he was just a glider pilot he would have thought he could glide it all the way back to the airport. As a jet pilot, the knew he could sustain flight for a very short time, since he only has a small amount of attitude to trade. It's not like he is the only pilot to ever land a jet with dead engines.

[@hxpx6906]

​@@justforever96 I guess you are not a glider pilot. As a glider pilot managing altitude and speed and watching out for potential landing areas is your concern during the entire flight. With powered aircraft it's not. And as a glider pilot you are constantly handling kinetic energy and aerodynamics of a non powered aircraft. And that mental background might have helped Sully to intuitively make the right decisions. And BTW aerodynamics of an airliner on idle thrust or with engines shut down are not that much different from a glider. Managing the complex system of the airliner (doing the necessary emergency procedures) is the other part of the workload in that situation. And that's the part where being a glider pilot didn't help him.

Also a common misconception is that it was a miracle. Incorrect. The flight had a safe outcome because of the safety culture in commercial aviation, the regulations the industry follows, the frequent and thorough training of pilots, air traffic controllers, maintenance technicians, airline dispatchers, and many other professionals. Safety wasn't uncommon or an accident or divine intervention. Also, the decision was the true key here. Landing in the water wasn't the thing that set this apart, it was that Sully recognized that returning to LGA, going to JFK, or diverting to TEB (with north/south runways while he was east of the airport) wasn't feasible without possibly losing too much energy, so he went with what some may not have thought about. (Fun fact: when Hanks, Sully, and Eastwood were preparing for the movie, they used my airline's Airbus simulator. Unfortunately I never met them during that time, but Sully was on one of my commute flights at some point later on.)

"The airport runway was too short for the Boeing 727." That must be a short runway. The 727 was designed for use by Boeing per Eastern Air Lines request for an aircraft that could take off from shorter runways in the Caribbean but had to have three engines. This combined with specs from other airlines resulted in the 727.

[@justforever96]

It obviously wasn't too short, they wouldn't be flying from a runway that they couldn't take off from. Im sure it means that it didn't have the large safety margin specified by most western authorities. You need to have room not just to take off, but to abort any takeoff up to the rated safe speed. In any case, it is still a large jet. It still needs a large runway, just less than the contemporary jets like the DC8 or 707. Doesn't make it an STOL bush plane. Also I can't imagine how any plane would fail to take off because they were going _too fast_ . That doesn't make any sense. I could see if they modified it to take off slower (also don't see how that's a fuel savings) in order to allow it to use shorter runways like this one, and the pilots weren't made aware of this and ran out of runway before they managed to reach the speed they thought they needed. But you would think that when they saw the end of the runway coming they would try anyway, and if it was able to take off slower it would have been fine. More likely they didn't "modify" it (not even sure how they would do that), but rather created new takeoff procedure to allow a slower takeoff from a short runway like this one. Only someone failed to tell the pilots about this, and they were still trying to take off the normal way, and in that configuration they were not able to take off at the speed they were able to achieve. But no, he said they already lost an engine and hydraulics and a landing gear. So they were probably screwed anyway. Kind of curious now to know what happened. If that's the case I don't see what the modifications had to do with the crash. That's just incidental stuff they discovered while investigating.

[@stephenskinner3851]

@@lbowsk Just did and what do you know? I'm not sure about incorrectly calculating a higher rotation speed. If the end of the runway is coming up a pilot will try and drag the plane off the ground. The tailwind is significant. From the report: "The crew incorrectly calculated a rotation speed that was 5 knots (9 km/h; 6 mph) higher than necessary. The chosen takeoff runway was subject to a 4-knot (7 km/h; 5 mph) tailwind. The pilot rotated the aircraft too slowly, at about 1°/sec instead of 2 to 3°/sec. Furthermore, although initial calculations suggested the aircraft was operating within its weight limits, the investigators believe, based on the takeoff speeds used by the crew, that the aircraft was actually almost a tonne above its maximum permissible takeoff weight of 74.7 t (74,700 kg; 165,000 lb)..."

[@lbowsk]

1) Incorrect V-Speeds. Too high. 2) Tailwind. 3) Incorrect rate of rotation. Too slow. 4) Incorrect pitch attitude attained. Too low. These four factors account for this accident far more than the plane being slightly over MTOW. A ton in that plane is essentially meaningless. Leaving the airplane on the short runway for too long (tailwind plus bad V-Speeds) and then not pulling hard and fast enough (too slow and too low pitch change) to get them off the ground killed them. @@stephenskinner3851

[@Frentzen127]

It takes longer for an overweight plane to accelerate. If they had rotated sooner as their lower takeoff speed allowed, they might have cleared the obstacles. Then again that wasn't the only issue with their takeoff run, they had a slight tailwind and the rotation was not conducted quickly enough nor steeply enough. It speaks volumes that they could have got off the ground safely, even with an overweight plane, had they done everything else properly.

You should research before creating content. The pilot of the Air Maroc 737 did everything correctly. Is not that he pull up to early or that he used all the runway... An Airbus A380 landed in the other runway creating wake turbulence. This wake turbulence is what cause the 737 to go down when confronted the vortices of the turbulence. He lowered the nose to regain speed and lift and pull up again. Reported to headquarters and documented.

[@portiadevera]

[@michaeljarosz4062]

Look closely at the Air Maroc takeoff. It appears that the flaps weren't deployed. Maybe that's why there wasn't enough lift.

[@jcolbyt82]

@@michaeljarosz4062if the flaps weren’t deployed the airplane wouldn’t have made it more than half a mile from the airport. It might have lifted off the runway but shortly thereafter it would stall and sit back down, although the runway is long gone by that point. The 737 along with most other aircraft can takeoff without flaps but they have to build up a great deal of extra speed and thus need a much longer runway than most airports have. A fully loaded 737 would need a lot of extra runway. This particular plane probably had flaps 5 selected but if he was lightly loaded it could have been flaps 1.

This has been an on going thing with birds getting sucked into a jet plane engines like a vacuum cleaner.

The Intruders engines were working perfectly. The catapult was cold. He could have saved the airplane if he wouldn't have tried to gain altitude. Back stick caused the stall.

[@Kumacho1957]

Yes, cold cat (either not enough steam pressure or a malfunction of the catapult) and he also appears to be too late pickling (Dropping) his drop tank. On the Abraham Lincoln we had an A-6 blow a front tire on the cat stroke. The aircraft ingested the tire and instantly lost thrust. He dropped his external fuel tanks so fast they almost hit the bow. Even with both engines having lower thrust, he saved the aircraft. The one in this video seems to have not acted as quickly as the one I witnessed. I spent 20 years as a Navy ATC and have seen too many of these to remember.

Incident number 7, which is first in your upload (the fighter plane tumbling off the end of an aircraft carrier) was simply caused by an engine cover being carelessly left in position. Glad the pilot survived but he and the engineering crew must share the blame as pilots are required to do a walk-round their plane before take off.

[@maxwedge5683]

In small piston engine civil aviation aircraft, we do a "run up" to test the mags and such, before starting the take off roll. Wouldn't the pilot of that F-35 have had some indication of trouble when starting the engines or taxiing the aircraft? Seem to me he ignored some obvious signs of trouble. Wonder if he ever got back to a cockpit after that, probably swabbing the decks aboard some RN garbage scow.

[@Zeleathos]

If a plane takes off then lands safely I would argue its not a take off failure.

[@747captain]

That Royal Air Maroc flight looks like they didn't have flaps set for takeoff! I'm no pilot, but isn't that an essential element?

[@1geoser]

Nope, they got a sudden wind change due to wake turbulence from a departing plane on a perpendicular runway.

[@nigelbond4056]

I thought exactly the same thing. I’m pretty sure the flaps were retracted 🤓

[@martindixon54]

They have got their flaps set, as you can clearly see that they aren't fully retracted. It's a long time since I fired up a flight simulator, but that looks like maybe flaps 5 to me. It's certainly not flaps 0. The general consensus at the time from armchair experts (nobody, besides the people on the plane and the cameraman, knew anything had happened until the video went viral months afterwards so there was no official investigation) was that the pilot rotated too early and simply didn't have enough forward speed to get off the ground, though a few did blame (as Georges said) wake turbulence. The problem with the wake turbulence theory was that it would have occurred right near the start of their takeoff roll and they would have been well clear of it by the time they did their speed check at 80 knots, never mind hitting V2 (the point of rotation), although there was an accident in New York where a plane crashed because the pilots were fighting wake turbulence they'd long since cleared (they were slamming the rudder left and right, which caused them to think they were still in the turbulent air, and they tore the vertical stabiliser clean off the airplane), so it can't be discounted completely.

[@hostrauer]

You can takeoff with no flaps, you just need a lot more speed (vR is quite a bit higher). That becomes a major problem on a shorter runway, but it looks like those pilots had enough runway to overcome whatever problems they were facing.

[@23GreyFox]

@@harleyme3163 No disrespect intended, but why do pilots use full flaps to land and flaps 2 to take off if they do not help with these circumstances? Flaps increase lift, which you need for takeoff, by the way, to which rotate speed is calculated. Even single engine aircraft use flaps.

[@MajorDaveNC]

I had the same question on a flight out of Frankfurt Germany in a 727 with no flaps extended. The flight crew said they could not use them because we were near maximum takeoff weight and needed to use the entire length of the runway to gain the speed needed to create the lift. Using the flaps would have increased the drag on the wings slowing them down too much.

For the F35 pilot, you need to speed up faster than 50 mph for lift off. 170 mph to be more precise.
