Smoke fills American Airlines flight in San Francisco 

The lady in front of me on a trip to Vegas started getting belligerent because she lost a government device that she stored in overhead. “Not today” she kept saying, and I kept saying “I agree, now move so I can get off this plane”

they seemed slower than normal actually

Eh, well. Not everyone pays for travel insurance. At times like these, you’re your own insurance.

@@MrResin-xk2mfhahahahhahahah 😂😂😂😂

Who's the old guy standing & telling people to pass? He's creating an impediment. Evacuate means evacuate! You too sir!

Because they don't care about anyone else.

Americans.

I definitely think anyone trying to grab bags during an emergency should be criminally prosecuted.

@@the_hiroman Russia..

@@ChocoBeauty8 Indeed, after all you are putting lives endanger.

Thanks for the efficient investigation!

@@SkyBear0509So efficient that he failed to uncover that the A320 has Nickel Cadmium batteries. NCSP B 23060 LM. LiOn is possible, but Nickel Cadmium is more typical.

sort of, but they're on the ground and at gate. So cabin crew should have conducted the fire drill from their SEP manual quicker. The biggest danger here is the smoke/fumes build up. You should avoid doing a full evacuation if possible since you're greater risk of ppl getting injured(which you saw happened plus idiocy of pax grabbing their bags). Since the jet bridge was already connected, i would done a rapid disembarkation first. Then re-evaluated if an actual evacuation is needed. Seen in the video aft those doors aren't armed nor is the r1 service door. So you're not even doing a full commitment to evacuation!? Was the evacuation started by the commander or by nr1? Because evacuation you should use ALL available exits. First question, do you see flames? is it a controllable or uncontrollable fire. Uncontrollable, evacuate. Controllable sit on your hands for 2s and evaluated. Like you do in the sim when you get an apu fire/engine/wheel well/cargo etc. Can you extinguish it and does it remain extinguish? then it's controllable and an evacuation is not needed and not preferred. Poor crew some fun weeks ahead...

Japan is a civil and orderly country, America is not. Simple as that.

Imagine if that had happened on American soil…

These passengers were still boarding hadn't seen the safety video and hadn't acclimated. Studies have shown that when people are on the plane, all I. Their seats and acclimated they will follow the rules even if they hadn't ever seen an emergency flight briefing. However during boarding is the worse time because you can have a person with 10 million miles in the air and they will still freeze as they aren't psychologically prepared for what to do. This is a known issue in aviation safety.

Well, the demographics make a difference.

That's the contrast between Asians and Whites.

It's a world's difference when compared to the passengers in a JAL 516 flight being evacuated in January earlier this year

@@TrevorWebb-ck2yv yeah. That incident was also much worse as the entire aircraft was destroyed.

The chance of surviving an emergency is very high. Don’t comment on things you know nothing about

… flying is unbelievably safe, and while there are events like this pretty often, fatal accidents are exceedingly rare. Your chance of surviving an incident on a commercial aircraft are exceptionally high, not low.

@@Powderlover1 im referring to the people trying to grab their belongings. Imagine this was a water landing and you have some dude trying to get his carry on during those precious minutes before tha aircraft sinks.

As much as pilots and flight attendants would support such restrictions in the name of safer cabins - I doubt it will happen. The situation is just as problematica as 'back in the day' when smoking was allowed on board.

Of course this “One Guy” had to ruin it for everybody 😔

Doubtful that there could be any kind of stricter regulation as it would be difficult to enforce (will you check each person during boarding to see their laptop?) and a strict ban is impossible as most people travel with a laptop.

Why? This had nothing to do with the plane? It was the passengers laptop that burned up. Highspeed rail wouldnt change anything.

@@DesmolightDesmo evacuation are easier

As a railfan and aviator, yes we do need more high speed rail, and Amtrak was dumb to buy a train that didn’t fit on some tracks🤦

​@DesmolightDesmo .Of course it does. More exit doors. Ground level so less likely passengers will get hurt while evacuating.

@@GageTucker-of2wdwhich train was that?

Exactly. A totally different mindset.

The Japanese are an orderly people. The jungle of "diversity" or whatever you want to call it is not.

@@schalitz1 Japanese are very homogenous... Americans on the other hand, most are selfish as individuals, greedy, and don't care about other people.

What if they have important stuff!? If I have something valuable with me I am bringing off the plane.

@@melovetorun Great, so you can accidentally tear the emergency slide or accidentally hit someone with it at the bottom of the slide.

​@Well_possibly If you're getting hit at the bottom of the slide that has nothing to do with a bag... Furthermore, you can't possibly think of ANY way to slide down something without ripping it. REALLY! Humans, most objects actually, are three-dimensional mate: they have multiple sides... It's one thing if you're in the aisle reaching to overhead bins, but to bring the bag you have at your feet is actually MORE expedient, at least with bigger planes. The fact you don't know that shows you've never been on a team bus trip, and the fact you can't realize that is concerning.

​@@Well_possibly I'd also be more worried about the piercings and "fashionable" clothing some people have when it comes to slides...

@@Well_possibly Slides are replaceable. My valuables are not.

Laptops are not allowed in the cargo area, so this was on a carry-on, so she would have been very close to the laptop when it was removed.

Theres video from inside the plane just behind the laptop owner.

windows "modern standby" doesn't help either where it randomly causes the computer to wake up and drain the battery

Windows fault. They no longer let you fully shutdown using normal means

Good thing I have a Mac.

And everyone would shrug, cuz we're used to it now.

Of cos it should be 😂

This is still Boeing's fault.

@@CaliSteve169how babe?

@@djibicisse it just is.

Americans

ask boeing

Aviation, especially anything Boeing related, is big on the news cycle right now, so they've increased the stories to get even more views. Things go on every day at airports that could be featured on the news in the past but didn't, but now anything is a juicy story. Source: Me, a former airline pilot

@@Magellan-s2p This is not a Boeing aircraft that just had this issue. It's not all Boeing, yes the crashes 2 years ago and the door plug was Boeing but most of these issues are on the airlines. The airlines need to maintain their aircraft correctly, it's not up to Boeing. Half of these issues have also been airbus. The aircraft in this incident is an airbus A321.

To be fair in this case, seems like it was an unrelated device. Scary to be sure, but not one to add to this list this time. Not sure how dangerous such a fire is even if they were in the air, hopefully most of the stuff in a plane's cabin isn't particularly flammable.

must be the vaccine.....or the flat earth

Ridiculous comment here! Panic from the smoke (i.e if there's smoke, there's a fire, as simple as that). If you are onboard a plane and there is smoke, you evacuate period! You don't wait until the source of the fire is identified and deemed evacuation-worthy. Also screaming on the ground is normal after such an event that gets your adrenaline levels up. It is obvious you are commenting while you have never been on such a stressful situation!

Because this was during boarding before evacuation instructions are given, we may need to have an endless video loop of evacuation instructions playing in the gate lounge area. It is kinda like a passenger ship sinking shortly after leaving the dock or if the Dali cargo ship had been a passenger vessel. Would be interesting if they mentioned the full time needed for this evacuation.

Culture issue

They’re called Americans

and leave my Chanel Bag behind for the Dregs :P

So what? Maybe they had valuables. Important stuff.

@@melovetorunI hope I will not be flying with selfish people like you when something like this happens. You didn’t see what happened on the Japan airlines accident this year.

but it wasnt the plane anyway...

It is a laptop from a boing employee

Thats because a passenger caused it. Had it been a plane problem, it wouldve been a boeing

@@richardturpin61 POV Boeing has a spy and the spy puts on 8k graphics on a yt vid, then goes to the bathroom and puts on another disguise, then exits the bathroom and the laptop is on fire and he exits the A321 and escapes🤣🤣🤣

anyway it was an Helium leakage.

Because Airbus are very fine planes

because it is passenger laptop battery fault, it's not that deep

@@eilois There were plenty of recent incidents that had absolutely nothing to due with the plane type, the likes wheels falling off or the plane leaving the taxiway and the first word in the video title was always Boeing.

You're not a smart one... I'm pretty sure that if it was the plane's problem, the plane will be mentioned... It was a laptop FFS 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

@@Qwami You don’t pay attention. There have been plenty of recent incidents that had nothing to do with the plane yet if it was a Boeing aircraft, Boeing was mentioned in the headline, sometimes the first word.

Sorry to hear, I’m not a fan of flying either especially domestic.

Yes ! I too saw a woman talking on phone while the flight was about to land. She talked all the way through landing. I was so concerned and thought maybe the advancement has come and people can talk while landing: Your post made me realize my fears were valid.

Why do you put your phone in airplane mode I've flown a few times in the last 2 years and still have no idea what that means

Yep, the agenda is to end commercial aviation so it all makes sense.

Please read a list of the top 10 airlines in the world before saying it’s always US airlines fault.

@@PokoTheDinosaur what happened to Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Etihad. ANA. EVA and others? Tell me.

Airlines cheaping out while charging customers more

Sadly, that has happened before. It was a DC-8 and the plane crashed short of the runway

@@theaviationmonke5056 Nationair Canda (Nigerian Airways) flight 2120, I presume?

@@CTravelsAviation Yes

They have fire extinguishers on board, along with other countermeasures

Just like Value Jet in 1996 from Miama to Atlanta.

Hahaha Boeing trying to frame their rival😂😂😂😂😂

@@JoeRogansGutBiomeBoeing worker: lets seeee, *clicks on quality* oooo 8k,✨✨✨🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This ain't 1995🙄🙄

LMAFO.............. yea because you NOTHING else can also acidently catch fire in the same manner...........

Boeing is woke though.

@@francismarion6400 true but there hasn't been a crash involving a Boeing plane this year

@@francismarion6400therefore they need to be blamed for everything, including a laptop fire? 😂

Probably Boeing set a spy to light it up with, 8K GRAPHICS!, on RU-vid, filling the A321’s cabin😂

Trying to shall for crappy Dell

The fire had nothing to do with the plane itself so I'm not sure what point you're making.

@@jcallwood25While Boeing is definitely in shambles, the media will cover incidents and point at Boeing even though most of these don't have anything to do with the aircraft type

@Edv000, for example?

@@calis2497The United Airlines Flight that lost a wheel during takeoff, the aircraft was already about a decade old which means that incident was caused due to a maintenance issue.

No way Poko is here bro, all these people saying ask Boeing. The plane is literally an A321.

Yes finally a real aviation geek

@@ftxaviation real

This has happened before and killed people unfortunately. That is why they must be in carry on and not checked baggage. The other day I saw some guy on reddit saying how he always checks everything so he doesn't have to carry it. He did not believe those of us who told him that laptops are supposed to go in carry on. 😢

Comparing a laptop malfunction with a plane part malfunction. Logic left the chat. lol.

@@tfisthisman Because that's what these news companies have been doing lately. They are into sensationalism.

Bay Area news ( CBS ) did mention it was an Airbus.

That’s called a ditching.

The only thing that’s really changed is that every single minor incident is making national or international headlines. This sort of incident last year would’ve only really been reported on by local stations.

Tower to Canada Air. For the nth time you are about on land on a taxiway. GO AROUND. Would have been a disaster worse than Tenerife.
