    A suggestion to follow the "leave your stuff behind" warning: keep your wallet/documents physically ON you or in a very small clutch/shoulder/lanyard bag that you keep on you or in the seat pocket in front of you. This small item will not get in the way of others and it will be ready to go with you, already separate from your luggage. When I flew last month I had my cards, ticket, and a little cash in a card-sized zip pouch on a lanyard around my neck and my phone was in my pocket (when I wasn't using it.) If I had to get off that plane in seconds, I was already wearing my important things.

      People are becoming very aware of the narcissistic behavior of fellow passengers. Especially during an emergency evacuation where these people are trying to collect their property jeopardizing the rest of the passengers. To that end, I would caution anyone against doing that as they may find that they survived the accident but fared much worse after the other passengers got their hands on them. I, for one, will not hesitate to clear the exit route of anyone purposely impeding said exit.

      100%, for me I have to take a lot of medications due to health issues and disabilities (collecting them like Pokemon), so I ALWAYS have my meds bag (it’s a Harry Potter Hedwig makeup bag, but CRAMMED with pills) on me, I keep it in the little drawstring backpack I have (it’s a small bag that sits on your back, the type you’d use to go to a swimming pool) which I wear at all times so it’s always on my person, the only other items I’d bother with is my wallet which has all my IDs and bank card, and my phone, both these sit in my jacket pockets. Everything else is out of the way but the most important items are on my person, ain’t no way I’d be caught dead holding folk up trying to literally survive by taking my time getting personal belongings.
      Like if the item you need is very important that you NEED it then plan accordingly beforehand, make sure it is on your person so you can get out your seat and move quickly when the air hostess tells you to evacuate! Most of us will never need to evacuate, but it doesn’t hurt to plan accordingly and make sure you aren’t hindering someone else’s survival!

    I swear the overhead bins should have a locking mechanism activated for take off and landing. Preventing them from being opened from engine start until the seatbelt sign comes off on climb/cruise, then locking them again after the crew finishes securing the cabin for landing.

      If they're able to dedicate a separate location to the baby flotation devices (and other emergency equipment stored there) then that would be a great idea.
      Though I imagine the wiring and mechanisms required could be prohibitively heavy to allow for this realistically (based on budgets that is).

    I remeber Spantax not having the best reputation here in Germany when I was a kid in the late 80s/early 90s. One year (must've been in 1992 or 1994), my parents and me once again spent our summer vacation in the Canary Islands, and our return flight was with Spanair. Nobody had really heard of the airline, so some people were joking "Spanair is a subsidiary of Spantax - only every other plane makes it home!" I got quite some odd looks when I ( aged 9 or 11, I don't exactly remember which year it was) remarked "Well lucky us, the first one just took off for Hamburg..."

    • @Canleaf08
      @Canleaf08 9 месяцев назад +42

      Funny to note the nick name of Spantax: "Finkenwerder Airlines". In 1967, they wanted to land a Convair C990 in Hamburg-Fuhlsbuttel, but landed at the HFB aircraft manufacture in Finkenwerder (present day Airbus). A giant mishap and a major PR disaster. The plane landed safely, but could not take off again. So the entire plane's interior, seatings and carpet had to be taken out to take off again.To add insult to injury: The CEO of Spantax was in the cockpit at the controls.

      @@chrissywales6575yeah that’s what I was wondering. I’ve heard that some people go into a sort of shock and aren’t thinking, they just don’t realize how bad of a situation they’re in. They go into their own form of ‘autopilot’. It is DEFINITELY not always the case, and no matter the reason it doesn’t make it okay.
      Edit. One thing I thought about that happens a lot of time is people have very important medications that are hard to replace that they have to take every day or they are at very big risk of death or other harm. So I can see why those people would be very panicked to get their carry on luggage. Again obviously this isn’t all the time but I think trying to understand why these things happen helps to plan for it better rather than throwing everyone in the “well people are just stupid” lot.

I have attended the annual memorial service at the crash site three times, and videos are on my page. There is also a song that a first responder wrote. The crash is the deadliest, with a sole survivor, and became the second-worst U.S. crash at the time.

Thank you for taking the time to make these and do what you do - your way of approaching these events is diligent, pragmatic, and empathetic, and as a writer but also a member of your audience, it's obvious that you put great effort into the framework of your storytelling.
    As someone nonbinary and transmasculine, it's also been surprisingly stirring to hear these stories spoken aloud by someone with a calm, even, easy-to-listen-to voice and genuinely beautiful cadence who I know shares a similar-but-opposite gender identity. I've struggled A Lot with my relationship with my voice and it's been unexpectedly meaningful to randomly happen upon your channel in my... ravenous search... for more aviation related youtube videos (okay, so maybe I didn't "randomly" happen upon you then, lmfao).
    Anyway, thank you again for these videos, Chloe! When I'm in a place where I'm back on my feet I'll certainly be taking a look at your Patreon.

    If anybody is wondering why the vibrations from the disintegrating tyre tread appeared to worsen as the pilots lifted the nose up, it's because the tyre was being held down by the nose and by extension, the weight of the pland itself. So when the nose lifted off the runway, the still rapidly spinning tyre had nothing to dampen its vibrations, therefore the vibrations appeared to worsen.

    So good to see this disaster covered with your usual thorough analysis. Very sad that while crew were dying while trying to get people out, passengers were dying because they were trying to retrieve their hand luggage.
    Spantax, Spanair, Aviaco, Hispania...all names from my teen plane-spotting days. I remember one family holiday in 1984 My Dad and I were due to fly from MAN to PMI on Air Europe's brand new Boeing 757 - unfortunately it had a serious technical problem, and so, 12 hours later, a Spantax DC-8 was sent out to Manchester to collect us. My spotter disappointment on missing out on the 757 turned to delirious excitement when my dad and I saw that big old Spantax DC-8 rumbling towards the gate!

      My first flight was onboard a United Airlines DC-8 Super 60 Series Stretch in "Friend-Ship" livery. Nonstop from Friendship Airport (now BWI) to San Francisco. The second the flight crew opened the throttles on those JT3-D's I was fascinated with jet aircraft in general and DC-8's in particular.

    Hi Chloe 🙋, many thanks for another great production! It made my day. My homebase is Cologne and I remember an accident when I was 5 at Cologne airport. A Spantax flight from Mallorca made a gear up landing. The accident report blamed the crew for simply not lowering the gear in absence of any checklist read out. The forgot it. The airline had a bad reputation in Germany, and was offering cheap flights. Greetings from CGN Germany, Marco

      @@trinity72gp I have to disagree with that. I flew back and forth from home to my navy station from 79, and already then, we were ALWAYS told to bloody leave our luggage behind if we had to evacuate as it would (and that information was very clearly stressed already then) cause a delay in evacuation that could very possibly cost lives.
      And what is never mentioned even to this date is that the crew of the plane will in that case be among those getting killed because they have to stay on for as long as possible to ensure that all passengers are evacuated. So when people value their belongings so much that they are willing to spend time trying to retrieve it, consider that you not only risk blocking other people from escaping with their lives. You are almost ensuring the death of at least some of the crew who is supposed to get you out of there alive. And all because you value your belongings higher than the lives of other people.
      And I don't care if you have all your valuables in the luggage or medicine or the lab top with your whole written assignment for your university final exam. It is NOT worth a single life of somebody else. You can always replace lost things, or in the case of a lost exams assignment apply for a later examination due to your original assignment being destroyed in the accident. There is not a single university in the world that would deny you that option in the circumstances.
      To be quite frank about it, I consider each and every person in the world who will try to retrieve luggage in a disaster to be a coldblooded premaditated murderer. Because they cannot claim that it is a panic reaction they can't control. The fact that they will even consider retrieving the luggage because they value it highly shows clearly that they are NOT in a state of panic. Which means that they are litterally and premaditated ready to see other people die if it can help them save dead things rather than just have them replaced.

    I shouldn't be surprised, but I didn't know retreaded tires were a thing in aviation. They were the bane of my grandfather and father's existence when they were still alive and hauling cargo in their trucks. (Papaw was mostly local, my dad was long-haul.) They were banned from use on drive wheels, but still having them on the back or the trailer didn't stop them from ripping apart on the highway. Or exploding next to people just rocking out to music in their car while they drove back from seeing urgent care...

      To me, the whole chain of events seemed so obvious.
      I strongly suspect that he knew that the vibration was coming from the nosewheel and would cease at VR.
      However, what he did NOT realise was that the moment the nose lifted, the tyre would have been spinning at high speed an not having the ground to absorb 50% of the vibration, in the aircraft it would increase, then slowly decrease as the wheel slowed down.
      When things did not happen as expected, the increase in vibration led him to think that he had imbalance in one of the engine rotors or fans and continuing to climb would have caused it to break up.
      Unfortunately, he did not stop and think at the most critical time. His mind switched to the problems that he would have had, climbing, going around, then landing overweight.
      A fatal mistake, that took less then 5 seconds to make.

    In 1982 I was Chief Pilot Standards on DC 10-30 for PIA. I was taking off from London Heathrow for Karachi with a full load. At close to V1 a strong vibration began and we passed V1 before I could take action. Fortunately I had experienced "nosewheel shimmy" before and guessed what the vibration was. I told the copilot not to retract the wheels and asked the Tower for permission to proceed straight ahead as I did not want to make any turns until I could work out what was wrong. The vibration continued for about two minutes and then diminished. When it stopped we tried retracting the wheels and everything became normal. We did a complete check on cockpit indications and decided that it must have been a vibration caused by the nosewheel. We continued on our flight and landed at Karachi. I held the nosewheel off the runway as long as possible in the landing and, sure enough, the vibration began again. No damage to our aircraft or its passengers and crew. A month later I received a report from the noise monitoring people at Heathrow that I had not followed the normal departure path after take off and committed a noise violation!! That was withdrawn after I described the circumstances.
