Why Planes Don't Fly Over Tibet

To everyone annoyed that he couldve explained this in a few minutes but made a ten minute video: I personally like that he goes in depth into topics, plus he doesn’t have a bad delivery either. Personally I don’t really mind channels like RLL or the infographics show taking up my time by stretching shorter topics into longer videos because I usually have too much time on my hands anyway and I find it more entertaining. Plus that one narrator from the infographics show actually has a nice voice and he’s kind of funny. So no, I don’t really care if a lot of educational videos could’ve been three minutes long as opposed to like ten or fifteen, but that’s just my personal opinion, and if you don’t want your time “wasted” just don’t watch the video :) have a good day

[@the4given196]

Imo most of rlls videos are pretty good because he goes into detail enough for everyone to understand. The problem with this vid is that the explanation is so simple that it could have been a 2 minute video and everyone still would have understood. You can even explain it in a few sentences. The plains don’t fly over Tibet because the high elevation and cold temperatures make the flights dangerous. The high elevation and lack of airports stop planes from following safety procedures during emergencies and the cold air could freeze the plains fuel leading to another dangerous factor. The fast winds over the mountains could also lead to some turbulences.

[@rattletuber]

I took a flight from Kathmandu to Chengdu, China and I believe we flew over Tibet for a short while as I could see it on the IFE map. I experienced THE worst turbulence of my life and we began to feel the plane would break into pieces. All of it made worse by manic screams from fellow passengers.

[@SirijusS]

I would just like to add a few things: 1. The freezing point of Jet A, the fuel used almost exclusively in the USA, is -40, however the most common fuel in the world, Jet A1 freezes at -47 (the same as Chinese jet fuel, ‘No 3 Jet Fuel’). Russia and some CIS countries use TS-1, with a freezing point of -50 Celsius. 2. Friction with air particles causes a ram rise in the aircraft temperature, which depends on the aircraft speed. At Mach 0.84, a typical speed for a Boeing 747, the ram air rise is approximately 10 degrees, meaning that for Jet A to freeze, you need to be flying in -50 or colder, or -57 for Jet A1. 3. Edited: As noted by a few commenters, these low temperatures are normal. However, especially further away from the Poles, you will only really find them at high levels. In my personal experience, it is also relatively uncommon to encounter such temperatures for long enough to cause concern, except on Northerly routes in winter; normally descending a plane just a few thousand feet (or, sometimes, climbing) solves the issue. The flight will be planned with these temperatures in mind, and, if your aircraft is susceptible to low fuel temperature, you will be planned below your optimum altitude in warmer air. Some aircraft are equipped with means to heat the fuel in the tanks, mitigating the problem. Also, the fuel takes hours to cool down, even in this cold atmosphere, as normally you will uplift warmer fuel from your departure aerodrome. 4. In the event of an engine failure, any commercial turbine aircraft will be able to maintain a much higher altitude than 10000ft, often higher than 25000ft. In case of a decompression, 14000ft is sufficient . However, in either case, you need to have a safe escape route and I’m quite sure you will struggle to find one in this area. Hope someone finds this interesting ;-) Edit: I corrected the statement where I previously said that such low temperatures are uncommon. Also, I added a comment about some aircraft being able to heat the fuel in the tanks.

During WWII, the Pilots flying the Supplies into China, called that area "The Hump". As I remember reading, most of the supplies being flown over the Hump were going to Maj. Gen. Claire L. Chennault's Flying Tigers (AVG) Group, that desperately needed supplies in the early part of the war. But they were also supplying the Chinese Military and other groups, like the 341st Bomb Group. Losses were heavy and estimates vary between 468 and 600 plus airplanes (the AAF did not record every crash), but the more probable estimate is 590 aircraft lost along with 1,314 crewmen. Some 1,171 men who after surviving crash landings and bailouts walked out to safety; 345 men were declared missing. Many of the aircraft and the aircrews have never been recovered. One of the Pilots that started out flying supplies over the Hump was Robert L Scott. He eventually flew with the Flying Tigers. He is the Author of the book "God is my Copilot" and several other books. Scott retired from the USAF in 1957 at the rank of Brigadier General. In 1980 Scott, at the age of 72, walked the entire Great Wall of China, 1,900 miles in 94 days. His books are good reading. Men like Gen Scott should never be forgotten.

[@EIBBOR2654]

@@mclyte20 Yes I saw the original movie and I agree it is good. I got to meet Robert Scott in the late 1960's when I was a kid and he signed his book for me. The Flying Tigers and all those that fought in WWII were all hero's of mine and I think I read every book about WWII they printed. "God is My Copilot" was on of those books. They inspired my long career in the USAF. I never became the pilot I wanted to be, but I got to work on the aircraft. But I must admit the book is better than the movie and has more details. There are many movies that were made from books written by those that actually did the deeds. But the movies always seem to leave stuff out due to production costs or they don't think it is important or for other reasons. That or they add stuff in that didn't happen to appeal to a larger audience. They add things like love stories or female encounters of some kind to appeal to woman for example. To a point I can understand that as it is the bottom line the movie companies are aiming for. The most profit they can get. That was the older films, today they don't have the writers, depend on action scenes too much, actors are more like adult children that have never served in the military, act like they are playing some video game, are too PC, must be inclusive to everyone and push some kind of agenda. So basically, with extremely few exceptions, films today just suck. They call it artistic license.

[@mclyte20]

@@EIBBOR2654 I'm no where near as old as you are but I enjoy learning, reading and watching books, movies and documentaries about the aeronautical history of WW1 and WW2, the fighting aviator pilot aces and all the unique aircrafts that participated in the two wars different campaign theatres throughout the world along with being interested in all periods of world history in general. I agree , that the majority of todays actors don't hold a candle to the actors of the "golden era," of the movie industry. The actors of today feel unrelatable and cold in which you don't have any commonality or feeling for in comparison to actors from the past. All I can do as a young individual is just recognize these differences in time periods from the time that I live in now and be thankful for the modern conveniences that I have access to but at the same time appreciate peoples lives and experiences from the past because they were just people like my-self. At the end of the day I do have to exist in this modern world along side the PC cancel culture and immature adult children that society seems to create and foster now and that you write about in your response. However, that doesn't mean I lose my-self to what is considered normal today. Navigating it but not being "apart," of the mentality is the key. In regards to the book, usually the novels that movies are adapted from, do hold more details and are better than the films. But that's because movies in general are for entertainment purposes and very rarely are better than the books. The books are for people with a genuine desire to research and understand in greater detail certain events and people of the past more thoroughly.
