What you’re actually seeing is a reheat drain caused by overpressure of fuel that has not been ignited. This pressure build is caused by cancelling reheat, causing the system to automatically dump/vent/exhaust the excess fuel through an outlet under the exhaust. Pretty standard stuff but looks odd to the general public.
@@panicwarning4016 I don't remember that from my RB199 course, but I do remember that the throttle lever in reheat controls the Aj or nozzle area during lightup and subsequently fuel flow follows nozzle area as the reheat is modulated from min to max. That maintains the optimum nozzle area for maximum thrust and correct back pressure through the engine core to prevent surge or compressor stall. Mind you it made a big bang when occasionally the engine surged in reheat during maintenance engine ground runs because the adjustment pots on the MECU sometimes got noisy and caused erratic operation!
How can a plane look so majestic and beautiful. Must be by far , the most most beautiful plane every build, without a doubt. To bad they were decomissioned , at least i had the pleasure to see them regulary close up
Looks like a partially blocked hot shot injector which is located in the engine combustion chamber, if this gets blocked then the fuel for reheat will not get lit. The vapour out of the exhaust is unburnt fuel and the plume below the aircraft is fuel that is dumped overboard when reheat is deselected.
The Tornado always looks unhappy on the ground and also like it always has something to go take care of.... a very serious and industrious aircraft. The F-16, on the other hand, always seems eager and happy. The shark and the dolphin.
If we are pairings animals to jets, the Panavia Tornado would a Sand Tiger shark. Pointy and menacing with a big sweeping vertical stabilizer like the sand tiger's tail. The F-16, original name, the Fighting Falcon is perfect, a bird of pray. Sharp and attentive like a falcon.
Paul. That. Is. Cool. Worked. For. Champion. Spark. Plugs. In Detroit. Back. In. The. Day liked. THE. Work. And. Factory. But. Was. Called. Back. To. The. Chevy. Plant. Where my. Training. Contract was.
Working alongside these Tornadoes at the flightline, servicing our F-16's, for many years i thought the refuel receptacle was located behind the radar antenna. They opened up into that compartment after every flight.
When they came into service they were pretty clean engines compared to J79s and Speys that we saw every day. These days the exhaust looks really dirty.
Can anyone tell me what function the intake looking protrusion at the bottom the vertical stabilizer on the tornado serves? I can’t find an explanation anywhere.
They are going to buy a fleet of typhoons to replace the mighty Tornado. But it was controversial at first since someone suggested F-18. putting at risk lots of jobs.
When the after burner won't light there may be a fuel dilution problem poor fuel quality is most apparent when the fuel has trouble igniting, you could see a vapor coming out of the right engine but no combustion.
all' 83% Aj il DECU cancella la sequenza se cala la pressione nel condotto di scarico. Il carburante nel circuito viene drenato all'esterno per vuotare l'impianto R/H.
Fine British engineering with the afterburner... I mean reheat... That Olympus was sketchy... I mean dodgy... Couldn't tell from this angle or sound what was going on with the rest of the engine. Those Germans had some pretty gutsy Kahuna's to take it like that knowing they might get an afterburner stall at any time.
@@adventurekid9242 Lol so Rolls Royce engines are shit are they, I think you might want to have a look over their record, this could be servicing, a fuel issue, not necessarily anything to do with the engine!
Tornado engines do not have a "Spark Plug" for the afterburner. They blow the combustion chamber flame through the turbine to light the afterburner. This technique ist used in order to prevent heat seeking missles from locking on.
@@NutzerYOu No offence, just to understand... There is not enough hot air produced by these two engines to "light a candle" for heat seeking missiles, but a spark plug will do the difference to ruin the pilots' day? Really?
Got really worried about the right engine afterburner. It was letting off a lot of white smoke which I thin is oil and then seemed to suck in those fumes😨😨😨😳
At 4:40 the right engine looks less bright, orange v.s. yellow. Ignitors or fuel nozzles / fuel flow / pressure ? Do you know that the Tornado has average 60 hrs of maintenance per flight hour? Initially it was 35, now it is 60, due the agening fleet. Want to learn to be an aircraft mechanic? Go to the Luftwaffe. Allways something to do and good meals!
The Tornado, if only they design it to be carrier operable, it might be at par with the American F-14Tomcat. Its performance numbers is identical to the Tomcat
@@Dagowly83 Not exactly, most afterburners, when canceled, dump the manifold through a pencil drain out the bottom of the jet. He didn't get a light and brought the throttle back to retry and it dumped the excess each time. If you noticed, the F-16 does have a pair of AB igniters with which to light the burner.
Man, the vertical stabilizer on the Tornado is massive!
The real hero of this video are the brakes on that tornado
Well brakes are supposed to hold the plane back.
more so the tires having enough grip to not slide.
@@BallzGaming69 more the whole gear construction can take the load.
Okay then. The whole plane is amazing or the engines would just fly down the runway leaving the pilot sitting in his cockpit on top of his brakes.
Pain in the arse to set up and fit

Never worked an afterburner system before, thanks for the explanation.
And bleed valves open to avoid complete surge to the first compressor stages.
Thanks for that, was sat wondering why the pilot still lit the pipes and went after what seemed a problematic start.
Ravus Ursi thank you.

Was going to offer my Zippo, but he finally got it lit!
😂🤣🤣
Lmao 😂😂😂
I worked on these beasts at RAF Honington, 9 squadron. We were the first operational GR1 Squadron in the world. Loved them!!
I think the carburetor was flooded😂

Must be by far , the most most beautiful plane every build, without a doubt.

Knowing the distance and fences there, this is really good stuff and awesome video quality thanks for sharing!

The Ford Mustang of the air. She never loses her swag!
lol but she has to ask russian fighters to come down to a lower altitude to play
Ford Mustang?! The most American of cars? Surely you meant Ford Capri.

F16 is the shark IMO,
F16 is a happy shark, always smiling and being all nimble and speedy

Good description ,tornado so underrated
@@stevevater8598 having spoken to drivers of the infamous "Klappdrachen", the German versions are overrated.
That's the trouble using NGK plugs.
Should always use champion plugs on a Tornado.
Paul. That. Is. Cool. Worked. For. Champion. Spark. Plugs. In Detroit. Back. In. The. Day liked. THE. Work. And. Factory. But. Was. Called. Back. To. The. Chevy. Plant. Where my. Training. Contract was.
I thought Bosch would be the plug of choice? Lernt sumpin new today
Not using genuine Denso from Toyota I guess
NGK ia the best!
That Tornado was lookin' like the "Big Bad Wolf".
Working alongside these Tornadoes at the flightline, servicing our F-16's, for many years i thought the refuel receptacle was located behind the radar antenna. They opened up into that compartment after every flight.
The Tornado one of my favorite planes....and then there’s the A-10C :)!
Beautiful Video !
Perfect camera fps,well done
They seem to be very slow and use a lot of real estate in order to take off! Spectacular none the less. Thanks for sharing.
It's a heavy Jet, but in the Air it is with Mach 2.3 in high Altitude and Mach 1.2 Groundspeed the opposite of slow.
When they came into service they were pretty clean engines compared to J79s and Speys that we saw every day. These days the exhaust looks really dirty.
That Iron Cross still brings back days of WWII
Paul Amarante flying british made jet ironic that
Super video I love it thanks..
Those carburetors are tricky. Nice video!
Great video, liked!
WONDER ! BEAUTIFUL !
Indeed, "thumbs up" for the strong brake system.
More so, at prolonged pressure applications starting at 3:07.
Absolute amazing
At first I thought it was the turboprop version of the Tornado. Why does it bounce so much? Did they heat the springs?
Runway denial...
I love the look of the Panavia Tornado...
She looks awfully dangerous for the enemy...
Dangerous mission too...
Why did the tornado continue with a clear engine problem?
Awesome 😀😊
Didn't think the Crouts second engine was gonna fire up,, 💥🔥👊😂👊🔥💥
Its Krauts, as in sauerkraut. FYI 😉
Spark plugs are fouling out?
Woah! Cool video :D
Fantastic video. Huge like
Can anyone tell me what function the intake looking protrusion at the bottom the vertical stabilizer on the tornado serves? I can’t find an explanation anywhere.
Air intake for a heat-exchanger
By the looks of it - and this cutaway - for the ECS
aviadejavu.ru/Images6/AN/AN84-9/9-1.jpg
@@Wannes_ From memory it's the precooler intake for the heat exchanger which cools the HP bleed air from the engine.
failing AB Injector Ring igniter?
All ways love the deck boys
Ok 🤔.
That poor Tornado is in serious need of an overhaul.
Most of them are.
Luftwaffe has had major issues with maintenance for years. Their Tornado fleet especially.
Looks like an engineering request for the reheat system before flight.
Ops check satis.
Igniters? Still a very nice jet for the moeny.
Muito legal seu Canal parabéns 🌍🔔🕭✊
The Only 3 axles military engine. Incredible compact even for 21° century.
The military Kuznetsov NK-25 and NK-32 are als o 3 spool military engines (the NK-32 found limited civil use)
Looked like a R/H engine reheat ignitor problem
What is current status of the Luftwaffe? Read some info in the Dutch media about issues with the Eurofighter, what about the Tornado?
They are going to buy a fleet of typhoons to replace the mighty Tornado. But it was controversial at first since someone suggested F-18. putting at risk lots of jobs.
The Tornado is such a cool plane :-)
At 3:22 just as he's throttling up to mil the right engine kicks out a plume of something. It wasn't happy even before trying to go into AB.
It's fuel.
Do you think it was a good idea to take off? Great video 👍
RB199 burner blowouts are common.
🇮🇹MAGNIFICO 🇮🇹
🇮🇹 FROM ITALY 🇮🇹
Ive never seen an afterburner wet start before
Well the germans are used to some exhaust problems on their vehicles

That day was other engine's day off and you guys still forced him to work.. So he took his time. 🤣
Whats going with the Tornado engine??
The reheat didn’t light, the white vapour was unburnt fuel
He should not have taken off......
Lester Beedell So Its Basically like turning on a stove top Burner but when the Snapping doesn’t light it ?!

Two After burner open,maybe brake cannot hold..or right engine after burner ignition fail... intermittent ...
Need to get that into Halfords mate
I knew I should have given this old girl a tune up.
Love Duitsland!
спасибо
pilot had no interest in staying overnight at that airfield - he was going regardless
It’s just a code 2 dam it, I’m heading home!
The sounds of these awesome machines are sooooo, orgasmic.
dont tell gretta, shell have to create another 5x ngo companies to be a ceo of, +be a multi millionaire. not bad for a school failure
This tornade-nozzles look like devil eyes.
Too oooops loud for Sunday!!!!! Outlaw it! Haha!!!
Tornado had clogged fuel injectors
Buen aparato
Ground test OK? Unreliable Afterburner not so good inflight...
A spark plug not working on the right engine...

The white smoke is unburned fuel because the afterburner was failing to ignite
Was unburned JP fuel, not oil.
slickstrings how fuel become white smoke?
That German tornado needs new set of spark plugs on that Starboard motor!!!
Le tornado peut'il faire du surplace dans l'air
Ooh old ages...
f16 is still hero of all jetzz
F16!

Takes choke off, sorted off we go 😎
Pity that tornado begging for retirement
cool cool
Oh shit, what problem ?? If there were a problem with the right engine, the pilot wouldn´t have started !
Not enough choke.
The Panavia versions were the problematic ones. It's no wonder they were shut down.
The Tornado, best damn fighter jet in the Gulf war. #operationdesertstorm
credit to them being sent on most risky sorties but was not the best. the 117s were the most advanced and capable for the coalition.
also ,das steuerbord Triebwerk ist jetzt voll durchgeputzt !! Auch eine Methode ,die Turbine zu warten !!
The Tornado, if only they design it to be carrier operable, it might be at par with the American F-14Tomcat. Its performance numbers is identical to the Tomcat
Not even in the same ball park, f14 miles ahead
A little problem lighting the right engine I'd say!
Starboard engine B-1-Charlie igniter intermittent.
OK. !!!
Better pull the spark plug on that right engine, appears to be a little fouled
Pahele Jo dikhaya tha vo mig 25 fox bat that....
No that's a Panavia Tornado
It's not an problem..... It's just a check for afterburn preparation...
Самолет красивый, но если при пилотаже двигатели будут выходить на режим с таким рассинхроном.... Разложат его с вероятностью 100 процентов
Old girl needs her spark plugs changed
I think afterburner is a formality for takeoff.
Only for airshows.
@ the Tornado can't get airbourne without it.
Not a failure
Bottle of Redex and good to go...👍
Tornado having a vape before take off. Very distinguished.
poor tornado lol
Why is the tail wing smoky?
Ah I get it reverse thrust
Venting fuel from the tail port. Common on acceleration due to the tanks being pressurised and full.

Didnt see any engine problem with th f16 or am i reading the title wrong .
If a similar misbehavior of the engine on my ship, I would turn back.
And.......she stalls it at the lights!!
