    Kangerlussuaq's total population is around 500, it's better to keep going on 3 engines to Goose Bay. Even then, the pax had to stay on the aircraft after landing because the facility didn't have air stairs to fit, and it took a 777 and a 737 to get everybody to their destinations. Thanks for sharing yet another example of how even supposedly reliable technology can fail in unexpected ways.

    Way back in 1986 I flew on a BA 747 from Johannesburg to London via Nairobi. On takeoff roll, I heard a gushing sound and saw flames coming from the number four engine. This was followed by what looked like foam. Alarmed, when the air steward came round, I reported what I witnessed. She dismissed my statement and we continued flying. On arrival at Nairobi, the captain announced that we had an engined failure and that we would delayed while the engine was replaced at the gate. Four hours later we continued onto London. That was when my love for the quads started. Personally I feel safer in them, from the 747, then the 340 and now the 380.

    • @Bartonovich52
      @Bartonovich52 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      They use superalloys. Usually nickel based.
      Creep strength is very important for turbine blades because of the very high heat and stress Thad they are under so steel and titanium are simply not suitable.
      In the quest for more heat resistance they have introduced single-crystal casting which eliminates the grain boundaries of the metal and greatly reduces the chance of a crack forming.
      Combined with improved cooling methods like hollow blades with film and transpiration cooling and the use of ceramics, they have enabled turbine blades to withstand absolutely insane temperatures in comparison to a few decades ago.

      The individual aircraft from this video is presumably still in storage in southern France, and Air France has retired the type, so for this bird to ever grace the skies again, someone else who believes that they can make money with it would have to buy it and pull it out of mothballs.
      While it's possible that Emirates may decide to pick this one up as a spare for their fleet, I'll bet you a coffee that it'll never fly again, but merely collect dust for a few more years until it's stripped of usable parts and scrapped where it sits.

    As this incident again proves It is always best to have four engines under you on long flights over water. Allowing only two was an error of judgement, which looks as though it was an American decision made to knock the magnificent A380 out of the market.

    • @jonathankleinow2073
      @jonathankleinow2073 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The Boeing 777, which entered service in 1995, was rated ETOPS 180 at launch, meaning it had to be able to run on one engine for up to three hours (180 minutes) to divert to the nearest airport. That was 10 years before the first A380 took to the skies. Unfortunately, the A380 just does not make economic sense for many airlines, but that is not due to any underhandedness on the part of the Americans. Oh, and in all the twin-engine flights over water that have flown in the last 25 years, none have ended up ditching in the ocean for want of another pair of engines or a closer place to land.

    • @gort8203
      @gort8203 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I agree that 3 or more engines is best for oceanic flight, and as someone with a lot of 4 engine time I always felt uncomfortable over water with just two engines. But saying America approved ETOPS to combat the A380 is just plain ignorant. ETOPS preceded the A380, and put economic pressure on the B747 and A340 long before the 380 flew. If there were engines large enough to have a two engine A380 they probably would have done it. Airbus made the decision to assume the risk of a market for the giant 4-engine aircraft in full knowledge of how ETOPS affected airline economics.
