This is the story of trans international airlines flight 863. On the 8th of September 1970 a few pilots arrived at the operations room at JFK international airport at 2 pm, On that day they would be flying a DC 8 From JFK in new york to washington dulles international airport. The DC 8 was to takeoff from runway 13R with the first officer flying the plane and by 4:04 pm flight 863 was cleared for an immediate takeoff. The DC 8 lined up and the engines ramped up to takeoff power, as the plane pickuped up speed, the plane started to nose up, the pilots tried to bring the nose down The plane was 1,500 feet down the runway and the tail struck the runway, the plane dargged its tail along for 1200 feet as it struggled to get airborne. When the flight 863 was 2800 feet down the runway the plane finally took off, but they weren't out of trouble just yet. Pilots watching the DC8 taking off noticed something strange, the aircraft was in an unusual nose up attitude. In the cockpit the crew were bombarded with stall warnings and stickshakers, they knew that a stall was imminent if they didn't act fast. Meanwhile the plane climbed to 300 feet, it was now passing 60 degrees of pitch some say it was 90 degrees, but with the nose up so high the plane couldnt keep itself in the air, Flight 863 rolled to the right a bit and then the left wing and the nose dropped , as the DC8 fell from the sky like a stone.
The resulting fire engulfed the airplane. None of the 11 people onboard survived.
The aircraft that had been in the accident, N4863T wasnt even two years old,in the grand scheme of things that's brand new. Because of that this plane was in great condition, the engines were all fine, the pitch trim compensator had been replaced in 1969 but other than that this plane was in perfect flying order, there was no reason that they could see for this perfectly functioning plane to literally drop out of the sky.
If you've been a long time viewer of the channel, the crash of flight 863 might remind you of another video that I did, pan am flight 799, link on screen right now. In that incident the pilots forgot to extend the flaps on takeoff for a few complex reasons, but when they examined the wreck of flight 863 the investigators found that the plane was perfectly configured for takeoff.the flaps and slats were out the plane was trimmed correctly, the weight of the plane seemed to be within bounds.
When they were examining the wreck they came across something strange, the spar web access door on the right hand stabilizer had been punctured by something. The spar web access door is this small access hatch on top of the horizontal stabilizer which gives technicians access to the innards of the stabilizer. The Horizontal stabilizer at the back of a plane looks like one contiguous piece of metal but its not, its divided up into the horizontal stabilizer and the elevator, They're two separate pieces joined together by attachments and linkages, with a small bit of space between them
On the face of the elevator that faced the hole they found gouges and scratches and a few tiny stones. In the tail assembly they found small tar covered stones 1-2 inches in diameter, those weren't supposed to be there. More interestingly, they found trace amounts of asphaltic material around the hole that had been made in the access door of the horizontal stabilizer.

After studying all these videos, and perhaps knowing more about the mechanical nature of the moving parts, and all the hydrolics, and worse, how computer glitches can affect the plane, I feel like with a little training I could fly one of these things. But perhaps I'm too old and flying's heyday has long past. It seems like they're trying to extinguish travel along with many people. But if these pilots keep dying, who knows, one day I may get to land one of these things. Any tips?

Now I wonder what would happen if a stone made its way into an engine... After all, at major airports, there are multiple aircraft with engines running. If the stones made their way into the engine and destroyed one of the fan blades, you could risk an uncontained engine failure. If the stones somehow made their way through the bypass of the turbofan without knocking out the blades, you'd get stones flying out from the back of the engine at whatever speed the air was coming out of the engine.

Wouldn't surprise me, you have any idea how hard it is to create an obstacle free space? That's why I strongly prefer planes that are built to withstand the unexpected. For example, a small gasket blocking the opening would prevent anything like this from happening, but nope not there. It's like hurricanes, we know the most common damage is to windows, but we know that a small barrier a distance away from the structure can weaken the forces enough that it can't damage the structure. Yet, they pretty much never utilize these basic concepts to build hardened structures that don't kill their occupants whenever there is bad weather. The solutions are usually plain as day, the issues usually because somebody refuses to do what they know they should do. Just like with this pandemic... We knew what to do, we've done it successfully every other time... Yet bizarrely, they didn't do what they knew they should & now we are in an out of control pandemic. You can't necessarily predict the unpredictable but come on, any engineer worth their salt, knows that small spaces between moving parts can become a trap for any random thing that gets in there. It's not just a rock, if there's any sort of impact, explosion, part failure, etc; debris can be generated that can get stuck in there. Even my crappy washer & dryer has gaskets to prevent random crap from getting into the wrong places! It's not that novel an idea.

Depressurization - assuming the damage is severe enough - would only become a problem as soon as the plane reaches a certain altitude. The more immediate problem would be the rejected takeoff itself. Even if there is enough runway left the pilots still may come to the conclusion that it is less dangerous to proceed with the takeoff but return to the airport afterwards.

Hindsight.. absolutely should have been a rejected take off. Pitch-up on takeoff before V1-Vr is usually a trim out of T-Off range issue (pilot error) or runaway trim (depending upon system type). In the simulators, we would train for hours just on rejected takeoffs, however, I support the notion that most flight training RE rejected takeoffs is definitely focused on engine data rather than flight control anomalies. A psychologist might say "out of sight - out of mind" to explain the rationale for continuing the flight. A known tail strike prior to V1 definitely should have been a rejected take off decision. I wonder what the transcript said from the CVR? At those speeds, you have seconds to react before a problem gets out of control and cannot be resurrected. Surprised here that self-preservation did not kick in a little sharper while still in ground-effect. After V1, most training (through to the end of my career in 2000) was directed toward continuing the flight rather than running off the end of a runway into terrain, buildings or water.

This accident perfectly illustrates the fact that aircraft certification is based on safety requirements involving mainly the aircraft’s internal reliability, that is the robustness to internal failures. Unfortunately, commercial aircraft evolve in a physical environment that includes many possible hazards and external factors of possible damage. The Concorde crash is a similar case, where a tiny metal strip fallen from a previous plane and lying on the runway was enough to cause a tire explosion with catastrophic consequences. No design can be perfectly robust to endless hazards and contingencies, however we should learn from the past that some of those should be accounted for, at least in future aircraft designs. Stones from runway/taxiway works are (or should be) one of them, just like bird strikes.

This accident resulted in a couple of changes for DC-8 flight crews. One was a call out of 80 knots by the non flying pilot which would be an indication that sufficient airflow over the elevators existed to perform an elevator check, moving the control column forward to accomplish a nose strut compression will indicate free elevator operation. After the nose bob the flying pilot will state Elevator Checked. If the elevator does not check satisfactory the rejected takeoff procedure is considered. This check is also a good indicator that the center of gravity and takeoff stabolizer setting was within limits.

It would seem to me that the most likely reason a stone was stuck in the elevator, and more up in the tail section, is from dragging the goddamn tail 1200 ft down the runway. There was another primary cause for the nose to be prematurely lifting up. The plane's center of gravity could have been off due to how it was loaded. The pilot has to set the trim according to the load balance to take off properly. The stones in the tail were a direct effect of the tail dragging down the runway.

After watching several of your mini aircraft crash videos I have come to the conclusion that I like them much better than the MAYDAY investigations that are dramatized on television. One great aspect of your format is a teachable moment comes quickly and very clearly explained. This episode makes me want to more carefully examine and articulate the movable surfaces in the preflight walkaround check. Also, being mindful to understand what ever anomaly is found, scratches, gouges and dents can kill, if not understood prior to takeoff. As a teenage driver, with little experience, I put books on the floor thinking my legs would keep them in place. When I clutched and braked to pick up some buddies, the slick textbooks fell foward under the pedals. And a 1961 544 Volvo (w/seatbelts) got its right front axle moved straight back 1 inch by a high stone curb. No one was hurt, but driving to school it was obvious my wallet was going to get very skinny and my back was going to buy $700 (1967$$) parts and labor. I never did THAT again ! ! The legacy of your videos will hopefully be helping someone who is flying, from making an error with their textbooks on the deck. So to speak.

Your analysis is quitte sharp, including all the CRM concepts that were in force back in those days (actually CRM training came even later). Today we have take off briefings that allow any us to react to out of the blue stuff by sentences such as " if anything makes us believe the aircraft will not safely fly, we will reject the take off " and I am certain any crew would reject the take in such an obvious flight control issue. You approach in not blaming the crew is right as the pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.

Allec, not weird at all. I've seen this happen on a 747 during rotation. The thrust from the engines threw up loose asphalt from the runway and wound up causing a 3 foot gash in the left elevator.

This was a real posibility on the DC8. First, the elevators were not hydraulicly boosted, but manually controlled by cables from the control yoke. Second, with no airflow over the horizontal stab, the elevators would be full airplane nose up, so the gap between the elevators leading edge and the horizontal stab was several inches, big enough for anything to get in and jam something. A flight control check during taxi, was not sufficient as there was not enough speed to overcome the position of the elevators. Only during the initial takeoff roll, the elevators could be moved freely. Too bad, they did not abort the takeoff when the tail strike occurred. Sometimes relying on procedures, overrides common sense. Great video.
@rrknl5187
@rrknl5187 3 года назад
I wonder if this would have manifested itself had the flight controls been exercised? I don't think I've ever initiated a takeoff without moving each control to its stops. it's easy to do and takes very little time. further, when the nose rose too far, something is seriously wrong. At that point, the plane becomes an emergency and no one else matters. So what if another plane has to go around, it's far better than risking crashing your own plane. The mentality of 'we must complete this takeoff' can be enormous and cloud judgement.

Where you and the other RU-vid air accident and incident documenters provide real analyses backed up with evidence and sensible arguments in a concise format, the Mayday productions concentrate too heavily on sensationalizing and attention grabbing.

This type has aerodynamic servo control for the elevator (diagram at 3:18 ). Checking while standing still only verifies the control tab moves - without sufficient airspeed the elevator itself does not move so a jam is undetectable. My understanding is that after this incident, an elevator check was added during the takeoff roll at 80 kts. This speed is high enough to verify elevator response, but low enough to easily stop safely if the check fails.

If exterior cameras were installed - the Flight Engineer would have noticed anomalies in the rear controls, once he panned the rear of the craft views. However, this is a big, “what if” hypothesis. Camera equipment would have been extremely bulky, in that era of flight. I still believe if multi-view minicams were available - both this doomed flight and JAL 123 may have had better outcomes. In 1976, we flew Trans International Airlines, to Hong Kong on a DC-10-30CF. We were stuck in Anchorage, as we awaited an engine part to be delivered and installed.
