  • South Korea’s worst aviation disaster in decades also was the year’s deadliest plane crash worldwide, and time is running out on 2024. A Boeing 737-800 plane operated by South Korean budget airline Jeju Air came down with its front landing gear closed and struck a concrete fence Sunday at Muan International Airport in southern South Korea, killing 179 people.

    The report says, "Shortly after takeoff the pilot made a mayday call." This is completely false. The plane took off from Thailand and had been in the air for something like 4 1/2 hours before arriving. The mayday call was made just before landing, not at takeoff.

      Actually there was another big brick wall about 40 yards further along, on the airport perimeter. Still would have been a flaming disaster, just a different location.

      No, most if not all would have died even if they'd landed on the other runway, and even if they were landing at most any airport. They were doing 150+ knots at the departure end of the 9,200-foot runway in a belly skid -- at that speed, the aircraft would have turned and tumbled, and broken apart, likely with a fire too.

    Why not fly to another airport with a longer runway? Why wasn’t the flaps down and Spoilers up?

    • @jpdemer5
      @jpdemer5 3 дня назад +6

      Pilots retracted the gear and the flaps when they decided to go around ... from all the evidence (thus far) it looks like they panicked and rushed the landing. Normal procedure would be about 30 minutes of working through a checklist, to make sure the plane is properly set up for the situation at hand. (They had at least one engine working, which is enough to stay airborne.) It's possible that their instruments conveyed a worse situation; the black boxes will reveal lots of critical info.

      They couldn't fly, one engine at least was out and they put it down in a mayday situation. It wasn't the length of the runway, they could have slid in grass if they had to but it was the wall at the end of the runway.

    If you look close at the video where the white smoke is, When the plane struck the birds you can see on the left of the white puff a smaller darker cloud and hydraulic fluid is dark red or purple, When the plane hit the birds they bent or broke a blade causing a metal piece to fly around inside and cut a hydraulic line and all hydraulic pressure was bled off, That explains the small dark cloud of liquid and with an open circuit none of the pumps will work or the ptu they just dump fluid on the engine and no pressure for anything.
    That is also why no flaps, No air brakes but the 737 can still control rudder, Elevators and ailerons with system a and backup cables so they were able to land with full control but without flaps your stall speed would be much higher explaining the high speed landing and it explains why they would choose a belly landing knowing they would stop faster skidding on the fuselage and engines rather than not having primary hydraulic brakes on rolling wheels so they opted not to deploy gear manually and might have even thought that dirt embankment for holding up fiberglass antennas would help safely slow them how would they know it was loaded with 2 foot thick concrete.
    I think they are going to find a broken blade and a cut hydraulic line on the left engine

    So landing on round wheels slows a plane down faster than grinding on it's aluminum belly? I know the wheels have brakes but come one, there's more to this than just landing gear failing.

    • @harrygordon
      @harrygordon 3 дня назад +2

      There is probably more to this story so it’s best to wait and see and not speculate. And yes, round wheels with anti skid brakes will stop much better than sliding on aluminum.

      Sliding on that metal at those speeds is a step away from sliding on ice

    • @EnglishPalette
      @EnglishPalette 3 дня назад +2

      Brakes do most of the work of slowing down the plane. Indeed, sliding on the belly is just like skating on ice.

    • @caydenph2741
      @caydenph2741 2 дня назад

      Ground effect. It didn't touch it's belly, just the engines, therefore it didn't have as much friction. At best it could touch it's tail, but it would need more power to point it up, so it's counter effective.
      Thanks to the bigger engines that Boeing brought (which were also the reason we had the mcas incidents)

    The real problem is the concrete wall that ultimately kill everyone, but all they concentrate on is birds warning and landing gears, it’s an emergency landing, happens in the past, but never wall at the end of the runway

    Im sorry and sad about this Airlines crash. The lost of life.
    I'm worried about a fair and accurate investigation. It is a Korean Airlines, the accident happened in Korean area, most of the passengers were Korean. My biggest fear is that the Korean government will try to cover up or blame someone or something else for the accident. Maybe i watch too much Korean drama. I hope the investigation is transparent and a neutral investor.

    • @jpdemer5
      @jpdemer5 3 дня назад

      Unless you think the gov't is responsible for the crash, of course it's going to be "somebody else". The incentive is to find what went wrong, and take steps to prevent it from happening again. Changes to airport procedures, crew procedures, airplane systems and software, and placement of concrete barriers (!) are all fair game. The FAA does the same thing in the US.

  • @Mcfly868
    @Mcfly868 3 дня назад +6

    Guys stop trashing on the wall. Should the wall be that close to the run way? NO! But a wall needs to be there - further out. This plane has no sign of slowing down, it came in too fast, no flaps, half nose gear down, minimal friction surface. If the plane didn't slow down by much on a 2-3km runway, what makes you think it wouldn't ram into the highway and residential area beyond the airport.
    Either the crew fked up and killed all engines by mistake, or something was fked real hard with the plane. After all it is a Boeing. so 10% wrong with airport, Boeing & Airline can split the other 90% of the blame.

    • @jpdemer5
      @jpdemer5 3 дня назад +2

      There was a perimeter wall ca. 40 yards further out, to protect off-site people and property. Standard procedure at other airports is a frangible (easily broken) support for the beacon, on a concrete foundation that's level with the ground. Stupid design here, although in this particular case the result would probably have been the same when the plane hit the perimeter wall. Nothing is going to safely stop a 45-ton airliner traveling at 150 mph.

    Doesnt the atc notice that the landing gear wasnt down? Or do they not know about it not being down. Correct me if im wrong. Either way this seems like a pilot error. The plane couldve still done a 30 minute checklist procedure to insure a safer landing. Seems like the pilot and crew panicked and rushed the process. From the looks of it birds have nothing to do with this. This has to do with not putting the landing gear down. O flaps down, and the wall that they crashed into at 150 mph.
