I love it and just feel so happy when I’m watching the video and then it suddenly pans over to a survivor from the crash instead of hearing the narrator say there were no survivors. This accident though, was my happiest moment yet. ❤
It’s even better when a baby is born during the flight, so that beyond no losses, the flight actually has more living passengers than when it took off.
@The_ZeroLine Aren't pregnant women prohibited from flying late term? The only pregnant woman I ever encountered on an airplane was moi. It was before I was six months along. Something else now. The actor who plays the Captain looks very familiar to me. I think I've been watching too many reconstructions and dramatisations to the point that I now recognise fairly unknown actors.
I've seen this episode before, and I watch it every time it comes up. I've even looked for it to watch from time to time. It's one of my favorites because of the research done to find the culprit, and also the quick thinking of the captain to give them those few more feet of airtime they needed to get over the obstacles. Plus, there were no casualties. A quote from Doctor Who always comes to mind. "Everybody lives, Rose. Just this once, everybody lives!"
i think of that quote too! such a great episode. i treasure the cases like this where everyone lived, been saving them in a playlist. same fascinating investigation without the sorrow
As someone who lives close to Heathrow it is awful to think what could have happened. Thank goodness for quick calm reactions and a health amount of luck!
@@karate_girl_ibiza there was a certain amount of luck involved aswell that the plane didn't catch fire or hit anything but the soft ground. However all credit to the pilots for saving everyone onboard and managing to minimize the damage.
Man, I love this show so much! It's fascinating to see how investigators piece everything together to prevent future accidents. I would LOVE some behind the scenes footage, showing how the recreations are filmed & so forth!
I lived very close to Heathrow at the time and went to the end of the next road, which overlooked the A30 and the runway 27L and I could see where the plane came down. I stood on top of an electricity box at the end of the road soon after the plane came down, to see, then when I came home from school, I stood in the same spot all evening, other than when BBC News asked me to move, so they could put a cherry picker up so their reporter was at a level higher than the houses & traffic, to report on it. In between the 6pm & 10pm news, they let me go back to my spot so I could continue observing. I spent all evening there with my Dad, I’ll never forget it!
@@AntiFurrySupport it’s amazing though when horrible as these accidents are they inspire engineers to make flying safer all the time. That’s why I find the crashes interesting. 🤔
9:15 "When we actually stopped, I was surprised that I was still there" This is exactly what I felt when I had a car crash. Said car crash is why I am not afraid to fly because it reminded me of how dangerous driving is compared to flying.

Its ironic that the Boeing 777's QAR Quick Access Recorder uses a PCMCIA card. The only problem that unless you get a special custom built laptop, they no longer come with PCMCIA slots as back in the day, those slots were meant for telephone modems or network cards (either wireless or cat 5 wired (via a custom dongle that the rj45 plugged into and then the dongle plugged into the PCMCIA card. 😛
The crash landing of British Airways Flight 38 dominates headlines around the world, including the US media, such as NBC and CBS News Nobody could've imagined that a crash like this one could happen in one of the world's busiest airports like Heathrow!
I still take my hat off to the responses, instincts and reactions of the flight crew. An excellent documentary - when the only quibble is "The A30 (2:43) and (7:07) is NOT a motorway", then the producers have nailed it.
Star Trek The Undiscovered Country "An ancestor of mine once said 'If you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." Keep looking. Eventually, you'll find the truth. My question is, why can't they have a fuel system additive that prevents moisture from in the fuel from forming ice in the first place? Something that absorbs and assimilates water and helps it blend with fuel at non dangerous levels?
I won’t spoil the episode, but the problem had nothing to do with anything made by Boeing. Just thought I’d point that out before foreign trolls started fear mongering.
It was the micro tube heat exchanger designed and manufactured by Rolls Royce. Sadly they did not actually show the heat exchanger, only a mock up of tubes being held together.
Really interesting documentary. There is always that fear that models of the same type would be affected too. The most major flaw that has now been sorted that I really tried to look into was the B737 max from 5-6 years ago.
And again, in 2013, when one flying as Asiana Airlines Flight 214 crash landed in San Francisco in 2013, albeit for different reasons, the aircraft was not only smashed up and burned, but it literally spun around like a top. Even though three people were sadly killed, the aircraft for what it was worth was relatively intact despite the brutal impact and fire.
How often is water sediment checks done? On an aircraft I worked on during ground test runs I had to monitor fuel tank temperature for high levels especially towards the end as the amount of fuel left was reduced . On this RR engine the fuel pumps produced more fuel than was required and the system would return unused hot fuel back to the tanks. No chance of icing.
They're referring to 777s at large, not that specific plane. That comes out to about 550 777 flights per day, worldwide. Most commercial planes fly multiple flights per day, and this one was specifically mentioned to be good for both short and long haul runs. It's not an unreasonable number of flights.
Why is it that they so commonly used the call of speedbird.? I seem to hear that in different videos it seems like maybe one airplane would have that in their call name but not a bunch of them.
According to google, it’s the call sign for the British airways airline. Meaning all aircraft in that airline would use it.(In 1939, the airline adopted the call sign, deriving it from the airline's emblem, which featured a stylized seagull in flight)
At the start and end of every radio transmission, the flight crew use the name of the airline and the flight number. Rather than ‘over’ or ‘out’. ‘Speedbird’ is just a world wide recognised alternate name for British Airways.
@sharcrum Airlines themselves have callsigns, not individual planes. Individual planes have numbers So Speedbird is the callsign british airways. If youre talking to a British Airways plane from the tower (or out of the plane to the tower) youd say Speedbird (plane number) to start and end the call. Some of them are just the name of the airline - IE Delta. Some of them are weird - IE Brickyard, Cactus, Shamrock and usually have something to do with the history or location of the airline. One that makes me laugh is Alitalia Express has AliExpress.
Wait. The guy who was the first officer who actually flew the crash landing and made it possible for no one to be fatally injured because he didnt panic- his last name was Coward? Guy needs a name change to Brave, or Brasspair or something.
Air Canada incident was a confusion between metric and imperial amount of fuel, so my question is Don t airplanes have fuel gauges ? Pilots should ve seen how much fuel they had ? My younger sister was the lawyer for Rolls Royce Canada ! she quit for a bigger company she told me it was too much work for one lawyer !! We live around Montreal ! I remember the Air Canada incident. Winnipeg, Manitoba was just a bit too far to land there, so they landed on a closed runway closer than winnipeg, but it wasn t deserted, there was car races happening there ! luckily nobody got hurt ! That s all that counts ! 😎beeing a pilot was my dream as a teen, but because of my heart condition it was impossible so i later became a highway truck driver for 35 years without any accident ! now retired after losing my driver s permit due to my heart condition. i m now 68 and glad not living in trucks anymore ....🤠
if i had the money i would fly alot and the time to do so now i dont due to school if i wanst in school i would love to fly on planes with these types of pilots i wont have to worry about my life only if i knew a head of time and how they are it will relax me before i step foot on a plane
Gimli Glider episode... produced by you guys yourselves... The plane ran out of fuel at 39,000 feet... not 26,000 feet as you mentioned here. Please double check production scripts before committing to recording.
16:50 I get this is a rerun, and that it's an older aircraft, but I don't get why audio and data recorders are so limited now. I have an audio device that supports 16 channels of audio that basically fits in a water bottle and can hold about 400 hours of audio with an expandable memory of about 1 or 2 years more, nearly everything is either wireless or I would probably use contact with lock and latch. Not to mention basic power storage for them that, say the aircraft gets obliterated it keeps the device on long enough to save the last data.... And Honestly, it probably wouldn't be too hard to make dozens of armored Altoids tins* and scatter them throughout the aircraft just in case.
@@diontranekr6567 deep after is easy, most abs plastics are effectively crushed proof, and nearly everything is solid state now. It would be like tossing a silicon brick into the ocean like, good luck with that. The other one is more tricky , but currently a lot of it is either water based or highly moist Drywall* encasing a silicon brick. The idea is it boils away the heat until someone can get there.... Guess would be more robust memory modules
I'm sure one consideration is the cost to design, test it sufficiently, and deploy, but I agree it seems like the result would be worth the investment.
@@tomorrow4eva as for cost, these jets cost in investments that be calculated in high schools Like, a new high school plus annual staff is "only" about $25 million
Im not british or know anything about uk road systems so Im curious - what is it called then and what makes something a motorway? Is it like the difference between an interstate and a highway in the us?
The more accurate description is a road with 2 or more carriageways, there are also confusingly some sections of A roads that are classified as motorways such as parts of the a1 in Yorkshire that learner drivers aren’t permitted to travel on. It’s all a bit complicated
Ah. So it sounds like motorways are like what we'd call a freeway where Im from. Im assuming you use them to go from city to city or area to area within a large city quickly and they have higher speed limits and not as much entering or exiting traffic? And an A road is what we'd call a major arterial, a big but normal road. Thanks guys, always like learning stuff about other places. And if I ever visit the UK now I know the correct terminology if Im looking at a map or talking to someone.
@@childofcascadia Speed limits are the same on both (70mph) unless it is part of the A road where it has narrowed to 1 lane (in which case it is 60mph). However, ironically, due to extensive roadworks that take far longer than they should, combined with variable speed limit zones during peak traffic, a much greater proportion of M roads are 50mph or lower speed limits in comparison to A roads when outside of urban areas. Edit: A Roads are also used between cities and major towns, as well as bypasses around towns and cities. A roads tend not to have many service stations or emergency lanes in comparison to motorways. A roads also may pass through zones in which the speed limit is reduced due to other road crossings/ roundabouts/ close to built up areas, this is not the case with motorways. B Roads are main roads that are majority 1 lane but on occasion may become 2 lanes for a short stretch.
Theres always some water in fuel of all types whether jet fuel or regular old gas/petrol. Normally it doesnt matter, the engines are designed to handle it. But when you get to crazy low temperatures, the water in the fuel can seperate and make ice.
What a "sloppy" error causing this disaster. You should have let German engineers check that heating device. They would have moaned that this is very "sloppy" manufactured.
Ice. But how did the ice get into the fuel system??? If it came as water with the supply of aviation kerosene, how is it that it did not freeze when the temperatures in the fuel tanks dropped below 0 degrees Centigrade?????? Maybe it did freeze into miniscule droplets, and went through the pipes, not being stopped by filters in the system?
Install 4 engine on all commercial jets.Whats Is the problem with the manufactures that the pilots can't see the engines from the cockpit?Here in Houston Metro City Buses has cameras so the operator can see inside and outside the bus.There should be cameras on these jets that would give the pilots and flight engineer a 380 degree view of the aircraft.
The FOI seemed to have such as obvious fault having areas that areas exposed to hot oil. It is arrogant of Rolls Royce to think they were experts at ice formation mechanics.
Ice that had built up during the coldest part of the flight in the fuel system got turned into slushy ice as they descended and then it got dislodged and created a bottleneck at the fuel heat oil exchange core face when the pilots had demanded more power. Problem was fixed by redesigning the fuel heater core face.
I love it and just feel so happy when I’m watching the video and then it suddenly pans over to a survivor from the crash instead of hearing the narrator say there were no survivors. This accident though, was my happiest moment yet. ❤
FABULOUS pilots!!

Why not install a flow meter after the heat exchanger to the engine? in that case it will indicate a low flow-rate indicating a possible blockage.

the A30 is not a motorway
A30 motorway? I think that is a mistake.
The FOI seemed to have such as obvious fault having areas that areas exposed to hot oil. It is arrogant of Rolls Royce to think they were experts at ice formation mechanics.
all what air jet need is ; ENGINE OIL , 40L WATER PER PERSON ,AIR FOR FREE !!!!

Two for one story yeah
How can you hand over a whole plan to coward. Very bad.
ICE maybe? That would explain why the fuel system failed. In a warmer area it could have melted
I left all my luggage.... well duhhhhh.
Boeing use glue for there planes
How did It happen
You mean "when did it happen".
No
Ice that had built up during the coldest part of the flight in the fuel system got turned into slushy ice as they descended and then it got dislodged and created a bottleneck at the fuel heat oil exchange core face when the pilots had demanded more power. Problem was fixed by redesigning the fuel heater core face.
as soon as I heard Boeing I knew...
As soon as I read your comment I knew.. he knows nothing😂
