Why do Aircraft skid off the runway?!

20% discount on Brilliant!👉 brilliant.org/mentourpilot/
Why do aircraft sometimes have problems stopping and end up crashing off the end of the runway? we saw an example of it in the Air Florida Boeing 737 that ended up in the water outside Jacksonville in Florida and more recently, a Pegasus Boeing 737 who ended up breaking into three pieces after landing in Istanbul.
In todays video I will be explaining runway Excursions in detail.
Why do they happen, how do pilots prepare to make sure they DON'T happen and what are the THREE different phases of a landing?

Happened to me once as a passenger landing in London. It was 30+ years ago and I forget wether it was Gatwick or Heathrow, but it was pouring rain and the next thing I knew we were in the grass.... Chutes deployed & all, straight into the mud & pouring rain.... Fun times.

[@smallmj2886]

There were two excursions at my home airport in the last winter. In November an empty 747 cargo plane went way off the end of the runway and was totalled. Fortunately the 4 crew on board survived. The cause is still under investigation, but a wet runway may be a factor. In March a 767 was rolling out when it hit an icy patch and was pushed by the wind to the side of the runway. The nose wheel hit a snow bank and the plane spun around. No major injuries, and no damage.

Many years ago the regional jet I was on almost went off the runway due to ice and snow on the runway. I even felt the jet sliding very slightly sideways after landing. I think that due to the pilot and co pilot doing a great job saved the day. They corrected the angle of the slide and we stopped meters from the end of the runway. There was only enough room for the small jet to turn around and go to the terminal. I think it was in 1993.

[@annemargaret5562]

I'm watching your video and concentrating but Patxi just makes me laugh 🤣

[@mosheco]

Side question: whenever you show footage from the simulator, I see that you continually move the yoke is a seemingly random fashion which gives the impression that the aircraft is very delicate to handle (as opposed to a car's steering wheel which is normally quite steady). Is the aircraft indeed so sensitive to these little movements and are they crucial? In other words, when flying in normal conditions, would just holding the yoke steady cause the aircraft to deviate from the intended trajectory ?

[@PerfidiousLeaf]

I asked an Air Canada 777-2 pilot about this when I was travelling to the states a couple of years ago. He said that the larger planes feel as if they "lag", they have so much inertia that you need large control inputs to make it respond very quickly, like when landing/following a glide slope. However, you can only apply it for fractions of a second without ending up over correcting. So it ends up looking like you're all over the place.

Yes, good ole Naval Aviation, I was on CV64. After being in the Navy, I use to travel with about 5+ teammates for a defense contractor each week. We would fly on the old Dash 8, which held I believe a max of 39 people. As soon as we landed, we would all yell either Navy or Air Force. The other passengers would freak out, thinking what the heck is going on with these guys??? We would explain to them the landing. If the landing was smooth, AIR FORCE. If the pilot planted the plane, put a divit into the runway, struts almost coming through the wings, LOL, that was obviously NAVY. I myself am a Pilot, every Naval Aviator scares me.

[@annatamparow4917]

Same goes for the French! The Armee de l' Air (Air Force) is in constant competition with the Navy branch, who are mostly flying Rafale jets , not Mirage! In a joint exercise debriefing, an Air Force captain yelled at a Navy pilot: You can talk, you who don't even know if you are fish or fowl!

[@nathanielfink441]

Not a pilot or a trainee, but I have recently developed a general interest in aviation. But it also applies to the work I'm in - IT. Take-offs and landings are similar to risky operations in my field - code deployments, production database changes. There has to be a similar plan and risk assessment. The goal is to go through the operation quickly with 0 errors and 0 loss of operability from the users' perspective. The 'goal-oriented' attitude we have is similar and can lead to avoidable mistakes as well.

Another outstanding video, which makes this very clear and easy to understand.

[@Amy-zb6ph]

You have no idea how much I have wondered about this. I have hydroplaned in the car on the freeway. I didn't do any conscious math calculations but I just thought of my car as being more like a boat than a car. Having taken a year a physics, I now get why you would calculate how much distance you will need to stop. Having taken neurobiology, I learned that people's brains automatically do many of the physics calculations in life and it's really cool to learn the actually science involved in these calculations. This is cool!

[@Amy-zb6ph]

Calculate twice; land instead of crash. It seems like it might be wise to pre-calculate a second possibility based on the forecast at that runway that day. I do this kind of thing with my garden and the worst thing that can happen there is that I kill a plant. If you know that there might be rain showers before you come into land there, even if the probability isn't that high when you leave, you might as well do the calculate before you are in a holding pattern and more likely to feel slightly pressed for time.

Dear Mentour Pilot: What amazes me is your ability to stay focused especially when your pet is seeking your attention. I definitely could not do that. I would put my pet dog in another room during the filming and not allow my pet to interfere with my video. But you seem to have the extraordinary power to dismiss the interference of your pet and continue with your discourse. I have too much ADD to allow myself to present a video while my pet is seeking my attention. This is why I want pilots like you sitting in the Captain's seat on my flight to wherever.

[@GlamorganManor]

I would say that is an essential attribute for any pilot to have.

[@daffidavit]

@@GlamorganManor Agreed. But in my 50-year experience with associations with airline pilots, most are not nearly as well adjusted as Mentour Pilot. My experience is that many are competent, but a certain fraction has family problems. My experience as a flight Instructor who has made observations over the years teaching "Airline Pilots" how to fly smaller civil aviation aircraft is that a significant fraction have family problems. I'm not a "shrink" by any means. But my guess is that the flight schedules of many airline pilots are not "conducive" to healthy marital relationships. Especially with the younger pilots on the "Totem pole". Being away from the family for many days can create family discord. This has been my experience and is strictly from my observations. I also suspect the airline flight schedules and the "family schedule" may be in conflict. The Pilot's Union is a big plus for the pilots. IMHO, Cargo pilots for large cargo companies like UPS and Fed Ex hold the best of all possible positions. I know this because a good friend of mine is a Captain for a major cargo carrier. His seniority is very low ( i.e. high as in beneficial as if being the best on the list). But other pilots not being part of the "Majors" may have a hard time keeping their families together. My hope is that the shortage of airline pilots will soon benefit those who have worked for years slaving to become on the list of the "major" airline companies along with the perks that should come with the position.

[@enokfemti2356]

First let me emphasize how much I appreciate this channel! I would like to suggest that coming in hot and high is the main reason for runway excursions. And the reason for that can be a culture of adding an extra 5 knots to the Vref for all kinds of things, just to show how careful the company is. Of cause a minus landing is much more deadly since it happens at higher speeds and energy is increasing with the square of the speed but what is the ratio between minus landings and over-shootings? If we exclude minus landings caused by other reasons than miss judgement by the pilot I suspect that minus landings are very rare. Also consider that dissipating excess energy once you are in ground effect is very slow, and the more extra energy you are carrying the longer you float. Dissipating it on short final is a snap but once you got down it is not and fact is that on a great deal of landings there is a noticeable amount of floating. How about starting to add 3 knots instead of 5 for crosswinds and gusts and so on?

For Mentour,.

Then at abiout 11:30 I realised that it as the words of the determination of the dog who was "dog determined to get (and get rid of or maybe eat) that bug! good for him. He knows what he is after. While I don't own an animal because I am not in a situation where I myself could look after one, I do carel, and the animals around soon sense it. Addiditonally If you look up in Wikipedia, "Humanity Martin" also known as "Humaty Dick", he was a member of british parliament and got the "martin act" passed. this was the fist known legislation agains cruelty to animals,. hence the founding of the R.S P.C.A. and S.P.C.A.'s aad more in many countries since! Better that than "gone to the dogs"! Now what happens if he has a chance to fly and see where he is flying to? Keep on Mentour!

[@meldroc]

One thing I've found flying the Cessna 172 in the new Flight Simulator is that it's actually quite tricky to steer and brake an aircraft on the ground. With the 172, when you go to full throttle, the engine generates enough torque to cause the plane to yaw left. You've got to be ready with the rudder pedals, or you'll be in the grass. It gets really tricky in a crosswind - the wind blows on your rudder, and tries to weathervane your plane into the wind right as it starts moving. Watch that windsock...

[@sharoncassell9358]

Cessna has propeller which has left torque so natural tendency is to slightly pull left.

[@richardhurless574]

One subject I am curious about is what is the procedure for a rapid descent. As with the Southwest 1380. As in what do you do to get down fast. Maybe you have covered this but I didn't see it. Love the dogs...

[@jubelet]

It's a year late, but maybe you will see my question....When we as passengers feel a severe braking going on, when we are glad to have seat belts on, just what is happening? Is that the wheel brakes, or the thrust reversers, the spoilers, the speed brakes, or what? There are so many things about flying that are terrifying for some of us, but knowing what's happening sure does help calm the nerves. Love this channel!

Dear Mentor! As a big fan of your channel I REALLY appreciate all your podcasts. I’m just a common “enthusiast” but yet I always check if you have released something recently (don’t worry, I’m not a stalker 😉). BUT there is ONE thing you must improve on (Skillshare?) - and that is your English pronunciation- especially of TH. I cannot here any difference between “TRUST” (ie; rely on someone, Swedish “lita på”) and ”THRUST” (like feeling the force of acceleration on the runway, Swedish “gaspådrag”). In most cases the context gives the explanation, but not always - and anyway as a line training captain i think it’s paramount that your English is, if not “flawless”, at least not a source for misunderstanding. You have to TRUST when you rotate that you have sufficient THRUST to get airborne. I hope I didn’t offend you now, because I regard this to be one of the best, if not THE BEST, channel here on KZbin!

Speaking of stormy weather in the summer, storms usually bring changing wind and wind shear. Just another reason why you should be extra conservative because if your 10 mile an hour headwind turns to a 20 mile-an-hour tail Wendy could easily find yourself running out of Runway when combined with poor braking and any other small factors that can quickly add up

@@sharoncassell9358 I don't think it seems hard for that to happen at all. The engines are taking the most stress on take off. When do you think an engin will fail? During a run up and something breaks!!

Some years ago in a Brussels-Madrid fly,in the takeoff the crew tried to fly the plane over half a meter of water-ice-snow mix over the runaway (the airport crew just get of their vehicles throughout the windows of their cars). I was on the window and all I can saw was the terminal being closer & further very quick when the nose of the plane try to go up...Of course the crew just jump on the brakes and we stop like 90º to the right in the runaway,I suspect in the middle of nowhere cos all I can saw was a flooded airport. I think it was a little sketchy,nothing bad happened. It was a bad decision try to take off in such conditions. 5 hours latter we take off no problem.

Peter can you do a video on Flat and Rabbit light before the plane touch down?
