@Georgia Gal from Wikipedia... Analysis of the engines found that their fuel systems were contaminated with spherical particles. The Hong Kong Civil Aviation Department’s Accident Investigation Division concluded that the accident was caused by these spherical particles.[8] The contaminated fuel, which contained SAP (Super Absorbent Polymers) spheres, introduced in the fuel system when the aircraft was fueled at Surabaya subsequently caused the loss of thrust control on both engines of the aircraft during approach to Hong Kong. These SAP spheres were used in the filter monitors installed in a fuelling dispenser at Juanda Airport.
@@dude99844 becasue the contaminated particles of the fuel obstructed a valve, but they didn’t affect its reliability until there were plenty of them, which made the engine not to work properly (since the valve could barely move)
These pilots need to be recognized for their efforts...... and please dont tell me "its their job"! Because it is the duty of the airline and plane manufacturers to see that the plane is always in Great Condition.... hats off to these brave men
They are. both pilots received Polaris Award in 2014, which the award is the highest decoration associated with civil aviation, awarded by the International Federation of Air Line Pilots' Associations (IFALPA) to airline crews in recognition for acts of exceptional airmanship, heroic action or a combination of these two attributes.

It was caused by contaminated fuel. They left out that all eight tires blew and were on fire. Both pilot and first officer received awards for their skill at landing the plane.
@@wernerempire after he reduced the engine 1 in idle he tried to try to increase thrust on engine 1 multiple times and he got engine 1 to 74 percent power then he reduced the engine to idle once the engine did its job but the engine still remained at 74 percent power
At one time during the 80’s , I was a military personnel passenger in a C-130 transport aircraft over the sky of USA , one of the 4 turboprop engines was shut down for whatever reason . The other 3 engines were running perfectly and the flight was just as smooth as with all 4 engines running . During WW2, there’s a story of a B-17 got 3 of it’s engines shot and still be able to make it back to base with only one functional engine . I love those old fashioned aircraft with 4 engines.
With 36 years of airline flying and just under 18,000 hours now 20 years behind me, watching this video compelled me to flick through my logbook and note the special entries recorded. Amongst the hundreds of entries recorded, including an engine/turbine failure in a B737-200 just after lift-off, there are 8 special entries recorded over 8 days in May 2013. I was the Training Captain for the Captain of this flight when he commenced his initial First Officer training on the A330. Well done Malcolm!
@@harryfluellen Yes I know what is a heavy landing. Another weird thing is that they dont burn any fuel during the video.. In the beginning of the video: FOB 20040 KG In the end of the video: FOB 20040 KG 😁
Bits were missing off the quick document. Later the pilot managed to get engine one back to 74 % as they were going to water ditch. The fuel was contaminated with particles, jamming the fuel metering valve, when throttle was pulled back, it jammed indefinitely at that setting.
I was on a flight once where the pilots warned us that we needed to brace for impact that it was going to be an emergency landing. I see everyone here holding hands and praying, I blasted my music. If I was going out it was going to be to Sabaton
If every plane had these 2 pilots at the helm, not panicking, reading the gages right, not getting lost in space in fogs etc etc Wow we passengers wld be very blessed!
Even though I had flown with my Dad when I was 15 to Houston TX To Anderson. I knew dad was was at his last stage with Cancer. Being afraid to fly..I did it b c he needed me. We were safe ..but Gosh was I afraid. Glad I overcame my fears and I did it for dad.he passed at 47yrs old.but it was the thing tht meant so much to him tht I go with him and fly.
This was caused by salt water and i believe some kind of aircraft cleaner (i may be mistaken) getting into the fuel due to a broken filter, which created a clog in the engine and particularly the part that allowed for controlling it. They where very lucky that the issue presented itself when it did as the pilots where already near land and the end of the flight, if it had occurred earlier in the middle of the flight who knows if the engines would have lasted. Incredible luck as well as incredible skill by the pilots for landing the plane at that high speed.
There should be some g force sensor directly affecting the pilot's salary negatively if it reads uncomfortable levels in normal/optimal conditions. Same goes for bus/taxi drivers. I'm sure they would learn very quick.
They could not make a smooth landing because the aircraft was too fast to land smoothly. When he set engine 1 to idle the power went down the 1st time. But when Captain Waters recovered engine 1. It went to 74% N1. They would not have made it when that happened. This is how the pilots made it to Hong Kong. When the Captain Waters set engine 1 to idle it got stuck at 74% N1. This was the result of the overspeed warning. When they tried to land the GPWS system sounded. It was because the aircraft flew at 240 knots while landing. 100 knots faster than normal.
.... The captain are sweating as u can see. This isn't an issue, they are trying to figure out how they gonna overcome this horrific iccident! Bt they seem very calm and contained despite their emotions being ripped off.... Hats off for these dudes
But how did the passengers onboard got to know there is an engine failure? Well engine failure happen often than you expect. But the pilots never tell you what has gone wrong.
Yes- SO TRUE , I was on a flight as a passenger in 2016 , and hadn't been on an aircraft since 2001, during the flight I noticed the left engine on our 777 we were on suddenly the left engine was shaking and extra vibration accompanied by more droning from that engine was happening- straight away I figured that the airplanes left engine had been shut down and restarted mid flight In a "windmilling"start as there must of been a malfunction/engine stall at some stage...
I agree! With the addition of more computers to planes, we may see the need for two engineers in the future. There is no way two pilots can mechanically fly the plane while also be accepted to problem solve .

It’s pretty terrifying to land hard and fast like that. I was on a plane that lost the use of its flaps. I also learned very quickly why they are needed!
@@sabrina.natalie it certainly was. Words you never want to hear from the cockpit, “we have a bit of an emergency,” were said. Funny back story was this was the first time I’ve flown alone without family. Had a few days off college and decided to visit my brother. Flight was fine and it was about 30 minutes before landing that we were told about the issue. I had a stuffed animal with me that was a gift to my niece but it became my stress ball. I squeezes the stuffing out of that thing!The flight attendants had everyone get in brace position and we landed extremely hard and fast. I had some bruises from the seatbelt but I was fine. We had to remain on the runway and wait for the fire crew to hose down the wheels and plane. It was still at risk of catching flames. In the end we all made it to the terminal. I was never happier to be on the ground in one piece. I called home to let them know we landed. When I told them that we had an emergency landing, they laughed. Clearly they thought I was joking but I about cried. They quickly realized that I was serious. I can’t imagine being on a plane that has an even more serious problem. What I went through was minor in comparison to some of the other stories.
The second worst thing you can hear a pilot say: "I almost died on my last flight and my wife left me after I converted to Islam. Have an enjoyable flight!"
Do they go through training to stay calm under absolute pressure?? Cuz it's beyond amazing how they handle everything so calmly until the very last moment, I would literally pee my pants or get a heart attack.
All the scenarios.....like 2 secs before take off...enginr failure. Engine fire...in a simulator......they ll blow u with winds...they ll never let u sit on an aeroplane with 100 lives at stake just like that...
Previously every video i watched from this channel, ended up into fatal accidents. In case of this one, i literally prayed so accident doesn’t occur, knowing it already happened. And it wasn’t an accident. Thank god.
Both Pilots remained calm and everyone on board survived. I would trust these Pilots any day with my family.
I’m guessing they were in a simulator since it obviously wasn’t in real time.

I squeezes the stuffing out of that thing!The flight attendants had everyone get in brace position and we landed extremely hard and fast. I had some bruises from the seatbelt but I was fine. We had to remain on the runway and wait for the fire crew to hose down the wheels and plane. It was still at risk of catching flames. In the end we all made it to the terminal. I was never happier to be on the ground in one piece. I called home to let them know we landed. When I told them that we had an emergency landing, they laughed. Clearly they thought I was joking but I about cried. They quickly realized that I was serious. I can’t imagine being on a plane that has an even more serious problem. What I went through was minor in comparison to some of the other stories.
No one:
Absolutely no one:
Me looking at person next to me on flight: if I die we both die
And imagine if those pilots had to do another flight afterwards...
*"This is your captain speaking. I almost died on my last flight!"*
lmao can we get an oscar for that one
The second worst thing you can hear a pilot say: "I almost died on my last flight and my wife left me after I converted to Islam.
Have an enjoyable flight!"
That's sometimes computerization is too unreliable. We need our own abilities, good job, Captain
Ah yes, 10M views. One of the best air disasters videos on TH-cam.
But then engine number 1 stalls and with more vibrations...
The voice in that was perfect
Boeing cockpit warning sounds on an Airbus....riiiggghhhttt
James McInnis I'm not sure if you know this but Boeing makes Airbus it is called the Boeing Airbus A380
Youexterminated wut
@@youexterminated787 lmao what??
Hahahahahaa hahhahahaha hahahaha lmao
Thought I was the only one that caught that lol
The landing gear wouldn’t have withstood all that pressure and speed! Wow!
this is why i love flying cathay, excellent service, and great pilots
If only this channel included all the incidents causes and conclusions 💔
Really. It was kind of a Cliff's Notes version of what happened.
Imagine the kai tak airport is still open and they going to land there
Nice
*LETS GO FOR A SWIM BOYS*
Do they go through training to stay calm under absolute pressure?? Cuz it's beyond amazing how they handle everything so calmly until the very last moment, I would literally pee my pants or get a heart attack.
Yes mam....they lll not let u sit in an aeroplane..until u train 1000 times...
All the scenarios.....like 2 secs before take off...enginr failure.
Engine fire...in a simulator......they ll blow u with winds...they ll never let u sit on an aeroplane with 100 lives at stake just like that...
This is one of the coldest emergency landings ever,Salute to the pilots who saved peoples lives
"...and they lived happily ever after. The End!"
Salute to the pilots who saves the life of passengers any how💪👍
Wow! That was amazing! He looked so FOCUSED instead of “OH MY GOODNESS WERE GONNA DIE!!!! AHHHHHHH”
:P
He's a pilot he isn't supposed to panic unless its obvious that there is no way to keep everyone safe
@@no-nameduser1117 true
That amount of pressure, and still get the plane down safe.
Great pilots.
Me after watching too many movies:
"We have to land on the Victoria Harbour."
I want this Guy To Fly our flight to Be Safe
Fly*
Finally, pilots who landed rather safely this time. And now I wonder how many close call flights and landings I've been to. 😬
Your vidoes are amazing keep up the good work
hearing all those beeping warning signals will truly scare me
Thats exactly why i respect pilots!!🙏
The smoke coming out from the engines looks legit.
Previously every video i watched from this channel, ended up into fatal accidents. In case of this one, i literally prayed so accident doesn’t occur, knowing it already happened. And it wasn’t an accident. Thank god.
matricirici demistfie
These are the smartest pilots ever👍
@Peter Evans Damn,Didn't understand, but sounds interesting!
@Peter Evans Aaaa ok
In case you were wondering what the fault was, It was fuel contamination
