I'm a fire fighter and if I'd be in charge of callsigns we'd have similar ones. But our captain has to be "professional" (read: boring), so we're called "(city) truck" or "(city) engine" or "(city) command" an so on... :/
It is mandated by ICAO for all international airports that first responding ARFF unit has to arrive on scene within three minutes of the alert (including dispatch and time to roll-out!).
@@Marco-wz3ff As with many things in aviation, we did learn from that mistake and ARFF is trained on the irregular and unpredictable behaviour of panicing crowds now. Especially they are cautioned about the mix of reduced visibility (their own spray/foam or otherwise) and evac on the tarmac.
@@Marco-wz3ff aviation is an ever changing industries, sadly it takes casualties for changes to take effect most of the times, others a simple near miss of life may just be enough. either way, its noones intention to cause casualties, just a mix of things going wrong at the same time.
My Daddy booted at Lackland USAF San Antonio in 1960. FOD were jack-rabbits. (Edit) not just one here one there, there were husks of them. End edit Baseball bats were handed out during police call. I think the local orphanage enjoyed rabbit stew, or even rabbit fricassee, but that's just conjecture.
Hello everyone!! Here we are with another SUPER LONG Sunday video! You can imagine how many hours this took to edit... hope you all like it. At the very same moment we reach 200 LIKES, Part 2 will be released!!! :D
Thanks for the videos. It's amazing that I never heard of any of these incidents last year. Was just searching for info on the UPS runway overrun this morning. Guess I don't watch the news much.
We had an engine failure years ago. Due to the Dry grass, The fire was caused by hot fan blades exiting the engine and landing in the dry grass catching fire.
This is a stupid question and I can’t believe it never really occurred to me before, but Is a heading just turning to a compass position? I’ve realized I’ve never heard it go over 360... I always just assumed it was maybe a preprogrammed route through airspace or something. Very stupid, now that I think about it.
each has his own hobbies, could you talk a bit about why planespotting is something that's exciting for you? Don't get me wrong any hobby that's outside is better than just sitting and watching tv/browsing reddit, something I'm guilty of at times
@@yuriythebest because we love aviation and its cool to see each type of plane (which the typical spotter knows a little about) personally im training to get my pilot liscence but also enjoy plane spotting especially unique ones like old planes or the antonov 225 (largest plane in the world) also not everybody can fly due to medical issues so some people plane spot instead
Amazing coincidence that this is the same flight that had the uncontained engine failure a few years later. Wish there was a recording available for the ARFF comms for that event as well.
How big are these emergency crews? I wonder what the most amount of emergencies at once at an airport was, and how it was handled. I keep thinking of that air Canada plane trying to land on 4 other planes full of fuel and passengers, can’t imagine how that would’ve been managed
Negative, the birds were not pill pushing doctors with previously suspended medical licenses, so the police did not drag them from the plane. However, they were unarmed black birds so they were immediately killed.
I cannot believe that air traffic controllers don't know something as basic as how aircraft engines are numbered. Some pilots may dumb it down and say left or right engine, but others will refer to number one or number two engine and on up if there are more.
Just wondering why Ground needed to ask which engine was which. Isn't it universal that the engines count left to right as seen from behind? Everything I've ever seen has had them numbered this way and never seen anyone feel they had to confirm it.
it's likely everyone knew this already but when you are dealing with a possible fire, it's a good idea to eliminate any doubt/confusion. Also, it being a heavy with 354 people, there may have been additional emergency units responding from outside the airport and they may be less familiar with aviation details.
Does anyone know if they ever ended up extinguishing the fires on the runway, or is the whole airport on fire now and they're still just talking back and forth about the size of the fires?
the fires were put out and the airport resumed normal operations following this incident, but sometimes even small fires can spread - if the fire is very serious, the alert will be raised
The sun came out so they closed down the airport and broke out the Barbecues while they waited for chief engine 35 to come back from the store with the beers. Good day had by all.
Priorities: 1: Aviate (keep the plane in the air... this includes dealing with what broke) 2: Navigate (point it where you want it to go) 3: Communicate (paying attention to the radio is the lowest priority of a pilot in dealing with an emergency... tell ATC/tower you got a problem and let them deal with keeping everyone else away from you.)
I can't believe the ground controller didn't know how aircraft engines are numbered. This incident is a perfect illustration of why every controller should know that.
D X It's a good idea to avoid it, but not necessary. The faster an airplane moves through the air, the more authority the flight controls have. So if the operating engine is left at full power, and the airspeed slows below a certain point (Vmc) then the pilot will lose control. As long as he keeps speed up, and engine power down, he can turn into the dead engine just fine.
Jonathan Lee DFD = Denver Fire Department. That's not what he said, though. He said we have the EOC activated. EOC = emergency operations center, the unified command post.
Some of the guys on the radio take to long to communicate effectively. Should not key your mic until you know what you’re going to say- in a quick, clear manner. You’re professionals for God sake- act like it.
An "alert" refers to ARFF classification of an aircraft with an emergency. Alert 1 is declared when an aircraft has a minor emergency reported of some type. Alert 2 is declared when there's an emergency declared for something major- such as a loss of systems, engine failure, no gear, etc. ARFF vehicles are staged and will "chase" the aircraft after arrival. Alert 3 is declared when an actual accident has occurred or is known to going to be occurring. Aircraft inbound with an actual inflight fire. ARFF will be staged and ready to go and local area fire departments are notified and responding.
Oh no more aviation gabble... Red fox to flying turnip.... 5467 tango tango..yes please darling... I thought radio communication should be clear and stoccato. These conversations are blurred Flying turnip UfO.
"Are you still with me??" Completely incompetent handling of aircraft itself still in air with one engine and 354 people. The grind and fire guys were laughable, sir this and sir that.
