[The flying nut]

(And can a 747 land, and take off again, at Bournemouth? If so, that should have been an option)

I have found a video of a 747 takeing off from Bournemouth. (Quite impressive).:ok:

[tribekey]

are you sure that's bournemouth,if it is he broke the noise abatement routeing.difficult to see the runway designator but from the trees in the background it looks like runway 26 departure(if it's bournemouth at all), he should have turned right afer 500' , not a screaming left turn.

[hobie]

validity of the video can be crossed checked.

quote ...."

aircraft : Boeing 747-200

Airline : European Aviation

This was the first 747 passenger flight from Bournemouth Airport, UK. The destination was New York and the flight was operated by the airline European. Bournemouth has a short runway so this was an incredibly dramatic take off for the 747. Listen for a guy in the background saying "its not gunna make it!" just as it's reaching the end of the runway.


Bournemouth - (EGHH / BOH) Hurn International

November 18, 2002"

[Groundloop]

difficult to see the runway designator but from the trees in the background it looks like runway 26 departure(if it's bournemouth at all), he should have turned right afer 500' , not a screaming left turn.

There is no displaced threshold on the near end of the runway so it is definitely a 08 departure (film shot from Matchams Lane) so the turn would be to the left towards Ringwood.

Hi-sorry if this has already been dicussed on here, but I was wondering if anybody knew any good suppliers or names of any decent cockpit/airplane documentary type films.

Ive seen an advert from ITVV for their VS classic 747 but its a bit pricey at £21.99.
Does anybody know of any other similar films or sources I could buy from?
Ive looked on Amazon but I coudn't find anything.
Much appreciated,
SIdent.

Forgive me if this is old news , but i dont know if any of you have seen this unbeleivable footage. Citation off the end of the runway and into a lake at Atlantic city after landing downwind, pilot blames brake failure!. Everyone gets out, just in time for one of the engines to spool up again and it goes off on a trip round the lake!. am i the only one who has never seen this??

Believed to be Tu-134A '05' of Russian Navy on 10jul06 at Simferopol-Gvardeyskoye AB, Ukraine.
6 crew + 14 pax (top staff of the Black Sea fleet). Only 3 pax slightly injured.

[hobie]

Have to say I'm amazed anyone got out ......

but thankfully they all did ....

ASN has some details ....

http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20060710-1&lang=en

[oceancrosser]

Hmmm...
Seems they got airborne, and then aborted?

Pretty much against the whole book isn´t it. Small wonder the went off the runway. Really lucky not having been killed all of them.

o/c

[Fish Out of Water]

Are there any known Vr cuts apart from this one on russian a/c that made it off the ground? Worrying that it must have been well below max tow and they had to abort in that fashion - just makes you thankful that Mr Boeing and Monsieur Airbus (the latter to a lesser extent, A340-200 hmm - no curvature of the earth comments now) provide more than enough power for the airframe! :D

[Two's in]

In 1998 this HS 748 lost the right engine (explosively) immediately after rotation at night and the Capt put it back down on the runway at STN with no injuries and the AAIB found it to be a "sensible" decision.

http://www.aaib.dft.gov.uk/sites/aaib/cms_resources/dft_avsafety_pdf_502888.pdf

[TotalBeginner]

It's strange because they were well into the rotation, but it just didn't seem to get off the ground.

[Sqwak7700]

I would love to hear any comments on the CFR response. What a bunch of dingbats! It seems like their equipment is not working while the plane burns to a crisp. No need to get the recorders...I'm sure some "general" investigator knew the cause a few minutes later while talking to the media.

I'm really glad that no one was trapped or injured and unable to escape the wreckage. They would have surely burnt to a crisp. Just goes to show how quickly a plane can burn to a pile of smoldering molten metal.

On another note, I don't think I'll be flying on a russian jet anytime soon. I don't know if it the manufacturing/maintenance/training, but they crash more often than windows. How about that late abort? Not faulting the crew, maybe they felt the plane wouldn't fly. Is it me or does it look like the plane actually gets airborne and then touches down shortly after? I thought I saw tire smoke, then again it could be the wheels locking up in an attempt to stop the beast. Do those things have anti-lock brakes?? Yikes.

[Loose rivets]

It looks as though the captain may have thought about continuing the t/o, then finding a whole slew of reasons why it wouldn't be a good idea...then finding even more reasons why it wasn't stopping as expected.

Come to think of it, it really wasn't showing much gusto in the first place given the low pax load.

[Paolo de Angelis]

Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me they took off with no flaps-slats?

In this case that's why the plane didn't get airborne after v1. It seems the pilot pulled, but despite the pitch up the airplane stayed on the ground.

[fox niner]

Look again....

They did get airborne, you can see the tyres smokin' due to the landing. Look closely, at 1 minute and 35 seconds into the film.

Yeh, but there is airborne and airborne. One where you know that it's going to stagger into the sky, and one where you're damn sure it won't.

Yeah that take-off roll looked very long to me, but it may be normal for that aircraft.

[tilewood]

Posted on Flight Group the runway was 3000m, 10000ft in length.

Even before the loss of the engine, it appeared to take a mighty long run to rotate, if as reported there were only fourteen pax on board.

[uffington sb]

So what happened to the Fire Department. A bloke driving a tractor and towing a black and white chequred caravan got there before they did. And when they eventually showed up, it looked like they'd come straight off the set of Trumpton!

[TheSailor]

Hello,

Don't get slats on a Tu134, or 154 come to that, and they dont use much flap at lighter loads. Probably put it back down again as the chances of getting out of it were higher that way, lose one engine and the second takes you to the scene of the accident:(

[AltFlaps]

Hi All,

Wondering if anyone has come across any video yet from yesterday's little nightmare ... I'm especially interested in any from BHX.

I was flying, so I know how rough it was inside the airplane - but I'd like to see how it looked from outside the airplane ...

Thanks in advance

AF

[trident3A]

I found this rather hairy-looking 146 departure on the BBC website (about 2/3 of the way through the report)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/avdb/news/video/74000/bb/74596_16x9_bb.ram

[lexxity]

That take off at BHX was pretty hairy! Would like to see the one from MAN too. I was on duty yesterday at EGCC and it was a pig. The vast majority of pax were total stars who holed up and waited it out, undestanding that we didn't have definite information.

[Going loco]

Not from yesterday, but worth a look. FlyBE 146 going round from zero feet after (what looks to be) a pretty nasty gust on, or just prior, to touchdown.

Hi all
Just wondered if anybody has the complete series of programs on
video of the Airport 90 series which was on TV 1990 going back a
bit i know !:eek: It was a behind the scenes look at Gatwick
Airport. I Was looking for a copy if anyone has it ?
Thanks

[Matty J]

Some interesting shots and Videos here, anyone have anymore??

I work at EGSS but was on a day off when the storm hit. Colleagues tell me only 1 in 6 A/C were landing on first attempt and there were some rather rough approaches to say the least!

Please share anymore images/Videos!:D :D

Matt.:ok:

[Ray Ban]

Anyone got the video link for that citation landing at MAN on Thursday afternoon? Apparently had a big wing drop close to the ground but landed safely.

[badboy raggamuffin]

Plus the captain isnt even wearing his glasses. Disgraceful.

[gijoe]

That's what I like about being part of Europe - standardisation.....

[rallymania]

ok opening myself for some verbal here i'm sure...

as a trainee ppl with a whopping 4hours (yeah i know, i'll be captain by next week:rolleyes: ) in my log book, i've done longer finals in a trainer than this guy did. is this common for visual approaches? or just because it's a quieter airport.

what's the shortest final run you've done with SLF's onboard?

[BlueVolta]

A very nice CRM, it seems to be friendly...
This an old fashion cockpit, I do not think they still fly the 727 in JAT, so this was probably somekind of farewell flight...

[Cityliner]

There are still some flyable B727 standing around in LYBE!
Don't know the companys name but i recently saw them there!
So guess this Video is not to old

[Max Angle]

Skippers not wearing his shoulder straps either but hey, it's a nice day, no traffic around, a nice easy visual approach and they all seem to know what they are doing and I don't think anything got missed. I would be happy to sit behind those three I think.

[saffron]

I used to fly with these guys who freelanced for my cargo airline,very well trained but Captains had autocratic CRM,F/E's were very good,however used to make their own hooch (legal in Serbia as long as your still is government inspected)that made your eyes water!

[barit1]

rallymania asks -
what's the shortest final run you've done with SLF's onboard?
I was DC-9 pax on a very short rwy change at KBOS (http://www.fltplan.com/AirportInformation/BOS.htm) - 04R to 33 - the "final" was essentially zero length, we weren't "wings level" until over the numbers.
Also rode a RJ TriStar into AMM 08R (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_Alia_International_Airport)with essentially zero final after a military-style 180 from downwind.
Great hand-flying in VFR both cases - not sure how the authorities approve, but obvious skill level and a fine treat for me! :D :D

[dessertdude]

very decent job IMHO! don,t see the fuss, what is MCC anyway?

[vapilot2004]

That 727 probably came from the factory with an ashtray in the cockpit.

Back in the day, a lack of same may have been a no go item. :}

[Eirefly]

Well the amount of British and American pilots getting stung for being drunk is hell of alot more than what these guys are doing.
Oh the PNF is having a smoke....oh and god forbid they made a joke aswell.

[d192049d]

Nice to see the visual approach being flown with hands & feet [stick & rudder] as opposed to the thumb & forefinger. :D

How often does this still happen? I could imagine autopilot still in until aircraft intercepting the glideslope and a five mile final [not two max as in this case] in your typical approach in most airlines these days.

[Captain Greaser]

Nice landing!!!!!

[Slats One]

Casual it may be, but its real flying. Proper hand -eye -foot co-ordination, and real Boeing three holer technique- a nice curving descent with no steps in the descent, application of power to stop it getting low and slow, and pop her down.

There wasn't a glitch in that descent profile- was there?

Knock it if you want too, but its called airmanship - if a little lax on the Imperial Airways approach checks minima list old boy.

The computer stick 25 year olds have no idea what they missed.

[YesTAM]

I swear that many years ago I saw a DC9 Captain taxiing for departure with a cigarette in hand, arm out the window, and the ADF tuned to the horse racing. It was a beautiful day.

[fireflybob]

Reminds me of flying with a respected training captain many years ago on b737-200 on an empty ferry from ltn to lgw. As we levelled at 4,000 ft qnh for the short flight he lit up his pipe whilst still hand flying with an apparent ease and accuracy that I shall never forget!

[skan]

I am a non-smoker, however I have noticed that the smoking captains usually are very competent pilots. If there is any specific reason for this,
I dont know.

[barit1]

With a good stable 30s-40s aircraft, BAE (before autopilot era), minor course corrections in cruise could be made hands-off, only rudder used.

I've seen so many recent trainees (& their instructors) who try to drive an aeroplane around like a car, very poor coordination in turns. Tri-gear will forgive this when landing, but not a taildragger! :ugh:

[Airbubba]

With a good stable 30s-40s aircraft, BAE (before autopilot era), minor course corrections in cruise could be made hands-off, only rudder used.

Well, these days I think I'd keep my feet off the rudders in cruise, especially if it's an Airbus. :)

There wasn't a glitch in that descent profile- was there?

There was a GPWS "Glide Slope" alert on final, ducking under even on a visual is somewhat frowned upon these days most places.

This was how it was done a couple of decades ago in the U.S. in the '72, casual chitchat, smoking, an extra body up front for the landing. Some operators didn't use checklists much, others were more into the procedures than flying the plane.

Things are more formal and a lot safer now I suppose...

[lasernigel]

[BOAC]

http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=1488963970796657726&hl=en-GB

Let's all stay cool..........................:ok:

[oceancrosser]

Hey thanks for that JAT video, got a flashback to my days as a F/O in a 3 crew cockpit, never flew the 727 though. Although I don´t understand a word in the Serbian language, I really understand the camaraderie involved. A couple of captains flying together, which does not happen all that often.
It is a flashback to a different era, but I occasionally am lucky enough to fly either left or right hand seat with some of my mates from days gone by. And I really enjoy it.

You'll know it if you've ever seen it. Trolled YouTube but no joy...

[metar]

A couple of friends have told me that there is a Flight Deck Dornier 328 documentary which is shown on National Geographic channels from time to time.

I fly the machine and would love to get a copy. I've done the normal online searches to no avail.

If anyone knows how I can get a copy in any format it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

It was an often repeated prog on Discovery Wings IIRC.

It might be worth sending an email to the Discovery producers.

Whilst definitely not quite in that league, I once many moons ago enjoyed the next best thing (without the turn mind) on the jumpseat of a very light (Orion Airways) B737-300 positioning from Manchester to Birmingham.

AA 757 landing at Tegucigalpa-Toncontin Airport (TGU/MHTG) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLDBgwrh6qs&NR=1). :eek:

Though final approach, touchdown on the mark, very nice work from this crew :D Engineering must have to remove bushes from landing gear every landing there.

BTW Is this airport "legal" for this type of a/c?

[misd-agin]

Do you think they land there 'illegally'?

It's been done every day for years.

AA has flown 757's into TGU for years. Surely they would not be there if it was not 'legal'?
