EMERGENCY: Tense Typhoon Emergency Chute Landing Procedure - Forced Go Around RAF Coningsby 03.04.23

- A Eurofighter Typhoon of 29 Squadron (Callsign GUNFIGHTER43) at RAF Coningsby is on minimum fuel and has called for an emergency chute landing. The pilot has requested to use the drogue chute but did not require the medic/crash team. However, while this was all going smoothly, the Embraer ERJ-145 that you can see in the video has an issue with clearing the arresting cable. This meant that the Embraer was still on the runway with the emergency Typhoon was on final approach. The Embraer had no option to turn around and a forced 'Go Around' was made by the Typhoon. This was a real tense moment to watch. This gave enough time for the Embraer to taxi back and vacate the runway.
Tower requested that the chute be disconnected at A2 (a taxi holding point) which was near the Ted Gate (Crash Gate 2) and for the first time we were able to see the whole retrieving process too.

Loved the skylark song around 4:20!
Well captured video thanks 😊
Oiii oiii Nigel 🤙🏼🌟Thank you very much
I just can’t bring myself to like the look of this aircraft. The Tornado was sleek, mean & looked like it could kick ass. This looks like it should be the next Red Arrow!
@@mandellorian790 That’s the ‘terribly British’ way, isn’t it? “We are British 🇬🇧, get out the way!” 😂
Nice One TED ,,👍🏻
nice capture! 💪
Very interesting 👍
Great video, ATC could have got the Arrestor crew from GEF to lower the RHAG for the Embraer and then raise for the Typhoon. The 'Squipers' will have fun repacking that chute once they examine for damage. If it was a serious incident for the Typhoon both RHAG's could have been raised for approach and overrun, i've lowered a fair few when ar Leuchars for private jets coming in for the golf. Samuel l jackson is a lovely chap and loves his golf 😁
Oiii oiii David 🤙🏼 Thanks very much. Typhoon was burning fuel and as my memory serves me some kind of dial/HUD issue. The Embraer just couldn’t go over the RHAG so luckily the quick decision for the go around was made.
@@TedConingsby A RHAG cable is like Kryptonite to Private jets, Is it Ground Equipment Flight? Support Equipment Section or Ground Equipment Maintenance Section at Coningsby. The closest i got was Cranwell for GDT when i was at Kirton in Lindsey back in 2005.
The Typhoon is a very pretty plane. Got to love it.
Oohhhh yeah
Oyoy !! good job all involved!! ahhh yeah!!!😊
Ooiii oiiiii thank you
1:52 Wow I never knew a plane like that could turn so quickly !
Oooohhh yeah
Skylark singing away, quite unconcerned - seen it all before...
Not very often a chute deployment is filmed this closeup.
Well done Ted!
With the Embraer on the runway, the jet could have flown for the diversion.
Maybe across the fields to Cranwell.
They would have been given plenty of notice of this Emergency and I can't understand how the Embraer was allowed onto the runway.
Perhaps I didn't see the whole picture. Good work Ted,Nikos.
Oii Oii Gazza
The Embraer landed safely but was ordered to taxi back via the East side but then realised that the Embraer couldn’t go over the arresting cable. This was happening while the Typhoon was on final. Quick reactions was to turn the Embraer back 180 to taxi down the runway but at the same time the Typhoon made a last second go around thank goodness.
I know it was burning fuel doing circuits and called out ‘minimum fuel’.
Never seen the chute deployed this close before yet alone see it been retrieved and packed up.
Chute! An emergency landing procedure. Positive side, good to know & check the operation & mechanics of this once in a while. Main thing, our aircrew & aircraft were safe, all went well. I remember the collection of the chute, well done! Nothing like a good tidy up. Could reuse it for a tent!? Excellent shots & narrative Ted. Thnx all.
Oiii oiii Margo This was one of those times when you can’t believe what’s going on… superb nerves and great coordination with pilot / tower. Never been able to see the chute pick up so this was a TCS first. Thank you very much. Ooohh yeah
I never thought about it before, but you'd think the Parachute would burn up instantly it's deployed from the intense Heat of the Engines but it dosen't.
Good point. We often thought this too but they are made of heat-resistant material
I would assume that the chute will not be reused in this case - it has been subjected to extended hot exhaust gases & significant stresses for several minutes. I don't think I would want to rely on it again!
They can be reused up to 100 times.
They can be reused
Nice to see the pilots' and tower's quick thinking to ensure safety! What was the reason for the Typhoon deploying the chute on landing?
Tower and pilots worked exceedingly good to prevent an incident. I can’t remember the issue as there were two emergencies that day, one had issues with the HUD but many of the issues were rectified whilst airborne but RTB for safety
I take it the GSES arrestor team were not on task to disconnect the Rhag cable and then re-connect, as is the normal procedure when an aircraft has a too small a wheel base lands.
It was a freak occurrence due to the fact the emergency aircraft allowed the Embraer to land first but of course when asked to taxi all the way to the end of the round and use the taxiway to the south, realised last minute about the cable. But usually the arrestor team would be on the case All ended well
I don't get what using the chute has to do with fuel minimums ?? maybe it was a planning training sortie to release the chute , and the AC just happened to come back on minimums ?
So what would happen if they could have used the emergency hook would they block the runway?
In an exercise in Norway it happened that they blocked the runway but I don't know what type of emergency it was.
If they used the cable (RHAG) then yes, it would cause a delay on the runway for any departures or arriving aircraft. If I remember the aircraft had HUD issues or some display issues so was a safe option to RTB.
Nice one Ted and Nico used to use the chutes all the time on the hunters. got the deformed elbow to prove it. crack on
Oiii oiiii Barry Thank you so much. Oh wow, the Hunter. You legend and thanks for your service. How’s the elbow?
@@TedConingsby sore
@@barrywood5357 ‘beret down’ ouch
Question-what happens to the parachute now, Does it get recycled or used again as an emergency parachute?
Oiii oiiii Sam, it can be reused and I will find out how many times
Hi Sam, it can be reused as many times until unfit for purpose, so hundreds of times if all good
is it typical to go out with a single missile? or is it an aiming device ?
That is an ASRAAM, a short range heat seeking missle. im not quite sure mhy it would only have one.
Interesting... Notice how during this go-around the pilot did select gear up, I suppose to save fuel through less drag. Normally they keep the gear down during low approaches and touch & go's. It seems a quite dramatic situation that could have ended in disaster, but perhaps there were good reasons to let the Embraer land first despite there being an emergency. Nice video that raises questions, which probably have simple answers :)
Oiii piii Arjen 🤙🏼 Yes, Typhoon was burning fuel while all this was going on and the Typhoon pilot allowed the Embraer to land first in order for the Typhoon to do one last circuit.. however, as the Embraer landed, it couldn’t go over the arresting cable while the Typhoon was on final approach to land. Luckily the Typhoon/Tower quick to react and made a go around. Really skills there. The Embraer couldn’t go any further other than to spin around 180 and go down the runway.
@@TedConingsby Thanks, I initially thought the fuel amount was the reason for the emergency, even though 'chute deployment might suggest hydraulics issues. I'm not sure what a "minimum fuel" call exactly means, but it could well be the minimal safe amount that still allows to divert to another field if necessary.
@@arjenav5968 Pilot was burning fuel before he got to Coningsby and did a couple more circuits until minimum fuel for safety I guess.
Why is there a single missile on the pylon?
Some aircraft are cleared to trample arrestor cables, some are not. It looks as though the cable was "rigged" which may explain why the Embraer could not trample it. Being Bingo on fuel is not that unusual and the use of the braking chute is not an emergency procedure. On a runway of the length of Conningsby, especially if Bingo on fuel the chute is not needed at all. As the bard said, "Much ado about nothing"
The training these pilots go through must be hell.... I mean what comes first declaring an emergency or raising their arse cheeks for a fart!!!! then declaring an emergency!!!
The parachute deployment is done at routine intervals as part of the service maintenance of the parachute. There is nothing unusual about this. Also the pilot's have to be familiar with the chute landings on a regular basis. All very normal.
This is true, however, the Embraer had a little situation and couldn’t go over the RHAG, while this was actually a gen emergency landing procedure.
Der Bremsschirm muss sowieso alle paar Wochen raus und neu gepackt werden.
The right place , at the right time again Ted ? Typhoon had 2 tanks onboard ..........
Oii oiii Fred and Geoff. Yes indeed 🪂
God knows where it had been.
I understand that he was not far from flying on vapour.
@@gazza2933 I’m pretty sure it was Holbeach or Donna Nook, I remember it was at one of those AWRs
What’s an arrest cable pls ?!
Ok so the Arrestor cable is called a Rotary Hydraulic Arrestor Gear (RHAG). It can be called Arrestor Cable. In simple terms for its purpose, it is to catch aircraft that have a rod (with a hook) to help decelerate or even bring the aircraft to a halt. Aircraft carriers use them too but for airfields can assist in emergency aircraft.
@@TedConingsby thank you. Like top gun.
Its cable that runs across the runway suppoted of the ground by rubber grommets. The aircraft drops its hook like on an aircraft carrier to engage the cable and slow the aircraft down.
Interesting clip never seen a fighter jet have to land with a parachute. What ever seemed to be the problem??? Now I'm curious.....overall still a great clip Teddi😊🐻
There were two emergencies that day, one resolved the issue whilst airborne but still returned. I think it was the one with HUD issues and other errors of that type. Sometimes the pilots can resolve the issue whilst airborne but not always.
@@TedConingsby ty Teddi for letting me know, hate to loose a pilot and a nice fighter jet 😁👍🐻
@@mkoschier I did not know that so thank you for letting me know. As the saying goes you learn something new everyday 😊🤗
Training? The first time you deploy a ‘chute probably shouldn’t be when you have to! Looking at videos of the Lightning jet from the 80’s it seems normal practice to use the ‘chute
Another jellyfish deployment
Embraer is pronounced 'em-bray-uh'.
Thank you
Nervous moments for all 😨 🫨. What happened there?
Can’t remember now, could have been HUD issue
@TedConingsby Glad its all OK. Guess it happens more than you think 🤔.
