What happens when u get your plane from TEMU…
There’s a difference between a tire and a wheel.
There’s no difference between a wheel and a rim, but a rim and tire together can also be called a wheel, and vice versa.
those of us that change them for a living call them TIRES...we change the TIRE
@@nocalsteve I don’t believe the report mentioned rims, and neither did I.
@@BigRingStumpy You said “tire and wheel” which means the same thing as “tire and rim.” But a “wheel” can also be a tire and a rim, and a tire can be a rim and tire. I don’t think I’ve ever heard any say, “I have to change my wheel because I have a flat tire.” Normal non-pedantic people say they “have to change the tire” which means tire and rim or wheel.
Thank you!
The fact that someone randomly filming the aircraft caught the tire coming off is what I find amazing. Just dumb luck that no one was hurt.
@@Plutogalaxywhy do they film planes? Is this something they are paid for or just one of those hobbies?
@@We_know_somethings..... it's cuz they are airplane enthusiast, and people watches it on YT Live
@@We_know_somethings..... they have no life or jobs
@@gerrylee1687 The guy on LA Flights is making bank doing this. People are sending tens and hundreds of $$ every hour to him. He created his own job.
@@We_know_somethings.....hobby, but they also can get a video to go viral and make bank.
You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel ! Greetings from old Germany 🇩🇪
LMFAO, that's class
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!
🤣
yawn
😅😂😅😂😅
Sloppy reporting is getting more and more common. The video clearly shows a WHEEL on the ground. There is a HUGE difference between a TIRE and and WHEEL, regarding the condition of the plane and the damage on the ground! Please, ABC !
more concerned about sh*t falling off planes, than the reporting.
@@wannabetrucker7475 Reporters are no longer required to have an eighth grade education. I remember when grammar was required to pass.
For the lay person, it’s all the dang same. Tire. Wheel. Reporting is done for people with less than a high school education. So it needs to be simple.
@@JazzyJae88 Even my 6 year old knows the difference, and a tire falling apart is probably the fault of the tire maker, and the wheel falling off is on Boeing. So NOT the same thing.
those of us that fix commercial aircraft for a living refer to it as a TIRE...that aircraft needs a new TIRE....the plane on gate 42 has a number 4 TIRE change etc etc etc.
Looks like the whole wheel came off, not just the tire.
“the speed and the velocity that it was coming down”… what?
Typical news speak.
@@Mullikia guy was like "speed? no no no... too unsophisticated... VELOCITY!"
He was "doubling-down" for maximum effect.
Thank God no one was injured in the ground 😮
Pilot 777: We are too heavy for climb-out, we need shed some weight...
Fuel tanks 777: Dont look at me...
Landing gear 777: Got you covered, bro...
😂😂😂
Lazy techs likely forgetting to torque the bolts during maintenance
used to "collect" tractor trailer new wheels and tires as there was a dip in the highway by my front pasture, going into an industrial area. They'd hit fog ini the dip, panic, hit the jack brakes, and the L shaped lugs would SNAP off , free wheel: I'd geet 200 dollars for those things in 1990!!!
It's called Diversity Equity and Inclusion
@@stumble_leiner right, because only white guys are competent and industrial failures before diversity must be fake news.
Another right wing clown, folks.
I'm a member of Cali Planes channel but not watching when he caught this. There was damage to cars but just grateful nobody got hurt. You also have insurance for this reason. Also grateful the plane was able to land safely at LAX with no one being injured.
Imagine heavy object falling down from the sky, good thing no one was hurt
“Boeing seven seven seven” 😂😂😂😂😂
More loose bolts? Good grief.
"tires can weigh 265 lbs." uh, ok, now add the aluminum RiM and Bob's your half ton uncle. !!
they are made of magnesium. And they don't weigh a half ton.
Wheel not tire!

That Toyota Corolla really put the entire 737 Max family to shame with its strength and quality!
This has nothing to do with Boeing
Wheel, not tire!
"Witness describes tire [sic] from United flight falling into SFO parking lot" -- that's not a tire, but a wheel with a tire mounted on it. A tire didn't do the damage observed, but a much more massive wheel.
I have to echo the most common comment... why are so many "professional" newspeople referring to it as a "tyre" (or "tire", whichever you prefer)... It is clear in the video and images that the complete wheel has come off. C'mon guys...
Because they are ignorant, the only job they can get is talking head. The first one to report said "tire", the rest simply copied the first.
About 30 times in my life I have been associated with an incident or happening where I was "in the room" and know exactly what went on. The newspaper and/or reporter has never reported the facts accurately.
those of us that fix commercial aircraft for a living refer to it as a TIRE...that aircraft needs a new TIRE....the plane on gate 42 has a number 4 TIRE change etc etc etc.
@@justing42 : I believe it is related to location. I worked for thirty seven years in an airline operations centre in New Zealand, sharing office space with the engineering watch guys. We spelled it "tyre", although nobody got precious about it if somebody wrote "tire". Our influences were quite closely related to England; I think "tire" is more likely to be used in a society more closely related to the USA. "Tomayto" or "tomarto"?
I remember a similar incident many years ago of a plane taking off from Philly and dropping a wheel onto a very rough section of the city of Chester, about 20 miles south. It broke through the front of a bar and rolled through behind several patrons perched on barstools. They glanced at the thing and went right back to what they were doing.
Tire or wheel. There IS a difference.
In this case, it was the number 10 "wheel and tire assembly" departing the aircraft.
My guess is that it is being investigated by the NTSB not the FAA - the FAA rarely gets involved in accident investigations.
Yeah I was about to ask that as it seemed off.
It sounds like United Airlines has a maintenance issue! Yeah, I don’t think I’ll be flying that airlines anytime soon🤯🤯🤯
DEI strikes again 😂
@@THEWORLDROCKSSS it has nothing to do with DEI.
@@hsuehhs1 Are you sure about that?
@@meatpopsicle1567 yes it has nothing to do with DEI programs. DEI programs train people to be qualified
@@hsuehhs1 Qualified for what?
Boeing: We land most of the plane
Or in this case, it's boing.
Isn’t like the plane operated for 22 years and in this case, it’s a mechanical issue….
Panda222
@seriessplayer62747 it's an old ass plane, but mainstream media takes any incident that's Boeing related and reports on it like it's hot news. Anyone with common sense knows that anything that old is gonna have parts falling off if it's not properly maintained, that's united's problem.
😂
United will offer 2000 miles to the car owners
Can someone explain why the plane was diverted to LAX? If its going to Japan, the flight path should be going northwest and it should be closer to just go back to SFO? Im confused...
fuel dump
One reason could be that it was probably heavily fueled at takeoff for the long distance trip to Japan. Aircraft like this have a maximum weight for landing which is often much less than takeoff weight so diverting to LAX would allow them to burn off some of the fuel weight and allow them to dump fuel to reduce weight before they landed if needed.
It’s: 1) more than a tire, it was a whole wheel, 2) a “triple seven” not seven seven seven, and 3) its runway two-eight right, with each number pronounced separately
🥱🥱
@@wannabetrucker7475 LOL 'Triple Seven" is the OFFICIAL name of smug jet heads, everything else is WRONG!!
P.S. no one cares, nerd.
Jesus, take the wheel. No, not that one.
Sloppy journalism. Wheel not tire
Like when they say Tarmac
That's going to be an exciting day for whoever sorts out the insurance
some of those cars that suffered the impact are likely write-offs. It could cause United up to US$300,000 to replace the vehicles.
United's insurers, unless they are self insuring.
Dude likes to hear himself talk.
Unbelievable story ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Poor guy that installed the tire
Yea, he has a screw lose!
@@mrthomasfritz a loser with a screw loose
Somebody getting fired. Glad no one got hurt.
I'm shocked that people still get onto airplanes. I was already nervous about flying, but the door flying off was enough to convince me to never fly again. I need to go on a 9000 km cross-Canada round trip at christmas and I'm taking the train.
2:52 "...to ensure their needs are addressed." That means listening to their complaints. Nothing about guaranteed compensation.
Absolutely... Listening to complaints does not necessarily translate to acting on complaints.
What triggers me the most is that she pronounced 777 as seven, seven, seven
Meanwhile Avgeeks : triple seven or Boeing butter machine
doesn't get out much.!!
k
Omg same! Was looking for this comment
Butter Machine?! 😂
kinda@@kitty_765
As a automotive tech I know somebody's life is getting ready to change forever. Dang!
Any federal charges? Or is it just one way? Are the shareholders banned for life and getting jail time. Or just the individual? If a person opens a door,they get slammed. If parts fall off and endanger the public. No one goes to jail? Your flying at your own risk!
on the L.A flights page on you tube.
Why does the reporter keep referring to a "tire" falling off? It was a wheel with a tire installed on it. That makes it much heavier and therefore dangerous. The reporter should try to change a "tire" on his car. He would reach for a wheel with a tire already installed, or his car will not be driveable when he is done. The damage done to the cars would have been less severe had it been only a tire bouncing on the parked cars.
Pilot to bombardier, you are cleared to drop...
Nice one ABC. You didn't blame climate change or even Trump!
LOL omg you’re right!
Addressed means United will try to lowball the damages, which will lead to lawsuits.
This incident is worthy of about 5 minutes of coverage. Media has covered over a hundred hours
Aging fleet, deferred maintenance, overworked traffic controllers, quality control issues from Boeing... all in the pursuit of bigger profits. After so many close calls recently, I won't be surprised if we see a major airline accident in the next few years.
@@Plutogalaxy I guess those 737 Max 8 crashes aren’t considered “major” in your book. The FAA controllers sounding warnings are all just parroting talking points, what do they know compare to a “real expert” like you. 🖕
BOING BOING DID THE TIRE
To me it would of been priceless if the pilot announced after landing that there will be a slight delay while we wait for maintenance to retrieve the dislodged wheel and reinstall. Meanwhile enjoy some complimentary peanuts for the inconvenience. Thank you for flying United airlines and your patience.
Was wondering, do they film the lifting off of every airplane?
Plane spotting has actually become trending. Especially at busier airports
@@christerry1773 I can't imagine that shit but thanks
Any reason they let this plane all the way to LA instead of heading back to SFO?
Did it take time for them to analyze the situation?
It was the whole wheel, not just the tyre. Don’t these reporters have any general knowledge at all?
*Tire. It happened in America, to an American-owned airliner. It's spelled "t-i-r-e" here.
lol of course not. These are the same idiots who say Tarmac
The wheel only JUST missed a fentanyl junkie taking a dump in the parking lot!
it's a maintenance issue not the fault of Boeing if it was a design problem the tires would have been falling of years ago don't give United a free pass!!!
A word of friendly advice, don’t try to buy a tire in Europe - you’ll be disappointed!
Tire? That's a whole wheel assembly!
The assembly did not fall off. What are u talking about
@@christerry1773 Wheel + tire = wheel assembly. Look it up.
It’s a wheel not a tyre
United is the leader of all airlines in the DEI category.
When I used to fly a lot I'd always pick United if I could - union shop, so the guys with the A&P ticket checking your plane worked on the type all the time and you knew they had the right skills. I dunno what's going on here but I'm glad I'm at the point in life where I don't travel so much.
Boing, boing - Boeing
Has nothing to do with Boeing.
Someone wasn't present in airplane repair school on "Lugnut Day!"
Atrocious design...Parking lot in front of Runway? Really?
“Btw the red Tesla was mine, did I mention it was totaled”
and the FAA is worried about plastic toy drones ...
Why this happens always to US planes, what trash is it?
You honestly think these are isolated to the US.
Good luck getting a speedy resolution from United for your totaled car.
This.
@@PiefacePete46 oops,my bad!🙀
@@fw1421 : I have just deleted my comment, if you want to edit yours. 😜
So who's ready for some discounted plane tickets aboard Boeing planes? Pass!
"If it's Boeing I ain't going!"
After seeing the Model 3 destroyed Elon’s wondering if the CyberTruck would have even taken a scratch.
Any reason to reroute all the way to LAX?
Same here
The route doesn’t bypass LA
I'd say couple be a few reasons. Firstly this plane was going to Osaka, Japan so would have quite a bit of fuel onboard meaning they cant land (especially now with a missing function of the main gear), so flying to LAX means they can burn fuel but also United have a very big maintenance depot out of LAX so it can get resolved there
Burn off fuel, longer runway, more comprehensive maintenance facility.
@@pi-sx3mb : I agree. I'm not from the USA, but longer runway for sure. It is sometimes preferred to divert to where your maintenance base is located, but Uniteds base is in SFO I believe. As for the fuel; for a flight to Osaka it would have been carrying as much fuel as possible. The flight to SFO would not be long enough to get below max landing weight, but it would allow him to jettison as much fuel as needed off the coast. My assumptions, anyway...
Bad omen for Tesla also..
United... the only settlement are brand new cars for those owners.
And completely paid in full, no loans!
YEP, Shoes are not FEET
The video of the plane landing at Lax appears to show a remove before flight tag hanging in the wheel well. hmmm.
I saw that that too!
Any chance you could post a link to that video? Thanks.
L.A Flights
If it could land in LA, it could have landed in Osaka.
An aircraft with a defect would not be permitted to continue to an airport where the cost of repair by another carriers engineering staff, as well as the huge amount of additional time taken to get spares etc to that airport is going to be "undesirable". 😜
Just like the Dambusters raid! I bet the poor Tesla will still be blamed
I'm wheely getting tired of this story.
red Tesla roof held up well
It's not United 'Airlines, It's Untidy Airlines. Just think, if the wheel, and tire had fallen 2 seconds later it would have landed on traffic on Highway 101. What happened to the axle that the wheel was mounted on? Is it sitting in the middle of the runway waiting for the next plane to hit during take off?
Why would the axle have left too? There's another wheel on the other end of it. If the axle broke it would have remained locked to the wheel. So what is probably missing is the retaining hardware, which is basically a huge nut, which probably departed from the end of the axle.
United needs to STOP deferring maintenance and just take care of issues as they arise. If they need hire more mechanics than so be it !
They physically can’t defer maintenance but keep being uneducated
@@twisterman101new4 you are correct. deferring maintenance is not physical act, it is communicated - it is a social act. United still needs to physically do its maintenance however, which clearly is not up to standard.
@@machupikachu1085 It’s literally illegal.
This incident is another example of the shortage of trained and veteran personnel available throughout the aviation industry. In this case, it pertains to the shortage of maintenance and maintenance management personnel.
Oh no, not sfo!
It's tyre. Not tire. But it was actually a wheel that fell.
It’s actually spelled tire here. Welcome to America.
@@FlyBoyMT Your just spelling things wrong, and have been since you existed.
"Tyre" and "tire" are interchangeable. Which one is used depends largely on where you live... I'm a "tyre" man myself.
@@k_salter : Nice one! 😂
That being said, why, then, is it "fire" instead of "fyre?" Why not "wyre," instead of "wire?" "Sire" instead of "syre?" "Mire" instead of "myre?" If you are British, you should probably curtail your criticism of American spelling until you figure out how to make hot and cold water come out of the same tap!
Now United Airlines have a poor reputation
This could be another case of Boeing cooties.
Well surprise surprise it's another BOEING! The meme of aircraft manufacturers.
This has nothing to with Boeing idiot. Learn about aircraft manufacturing
Take it to the logical conclusion - how did it land?
There was footage on our local TV news... it landed without any further drama.
Landing doesn’t even melodrama so of course they didn’t cover it
Was it a Boeing?
Don’t conflate this with Boeing. Has nothing to do with them.
Now what next will fell from Boeing plsnes???
This was a Maintenance issue. United mechanic doesn't work for Boeing!
This has nothing to do with Boeing idiot
whatever, an engine fell off a plane at LAX and luckily landing in between the highway and bike path. stuff like this happens every once in a while
What engine fell off? Thats barely even a thing
@@christerry1773 This was while back. Maybe 20 - 30 years ago? The entire engine fell off the wing during take of. The entire assembly.
@@SeanWork i think it was a dc10 out of ohare, but it’s only a happened a few times in aviation’s history. So not close by any means

Can I just fly Ilyoushin pls
This isn't the first time a wheel has fallen off a commercial jet this year. This isn't exclusive to Boeing, though the last one I remember was a Delta Boeing 757 nose gear wheel about a month ago at JFK. More than 20 years ago a friend saw a main gear wheel from something similar bounce on US101 before going into the marsh on the east side somewhere south of the Oregon Expressway exit. On February 19th there was a report of a main gear wheel falling off a Latam Airbus A319 at Sao Paulo. So this isn't a Boeing or United thing, even though neither is a company I trust over their competitors. I will never willingly fly with United and avoid 737s.
It won’t stop me from flying United or 737. Faith over fear
@@hsuehhs1 LOL, faith over an ability to look at facts and use them to predict future outcomes. Lucky for you your cars and planes are made by engineers like me, not religious believers.
I come from a time when Boeing and the 737 were things you could trust.
