    Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel!
    On the 20th of February 2021, a United Boeing 777-200, registration N772UA performing flight UA-328 from Denver,CO to Honolulu,HI (USA) with 231 passengers and 10 crew, was in the initial climb out of Denver's runway 25 when the right hand engine's (PW4077) inlet separated associated with the failure of the engine. The crew declared Mayday reporting an engine failure. The aircraft stopped the climb at about 13000 feet, the crew requested to return to Denver after running the checklists. ATC offered any runway, they would make it happen. The aircraft returned to Denver for a safe landing on runway 26 about 23 minutes after departure. The aircraft stopped on the runway for a check by emergency services. Emergency services advised of an active fire within the right hand engine and extinguished the fire a few minutes later. The aircraft was subsequently towed off the runway to a remote parking stand, where passengers disembarked and were bussed to the terminal. There were no injuries.
    The engine inlet fell into the neighbourhood of Broomfield,CO, located about 16nm west of Denver near 13th and Elmwood Street, the debris also struck through the roof of an adjacent house.
    Broomfield police reported that although debris impacted the neighbourhood and damaged a number of homes, there were no injuries on the ground. The debris field expands over a nautical mile.
    Ground observers reported hearing the sound of an explosion like bang, smoke and saw the debris falling down. The aircraft continued flying.
    Watch the video to learn more about what happened!
    Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this video!
    Wishing you all the best!
    Your "Captain" Joe

    I have to say, one of the things I wasn't expecting from this was ATC. The guy that was communicating with 238 seemed to understand that the pilots were in a stressful situation and was giving them a lot of freedom of choice for what to do next to help ease their nerves a bit. The pilots did great, but also respect to that ATC, he did an excellent job.

      Thank you. You analyzed all the given information, and it appears that you rightly concluded that just because one engine fails, it doesn't mean something bad will happen. Kudos! (and please take this as a compliment. lol)

      All transport category aircraft are certified to continue flight with an engine failure at the most critical time (V1) and clear all obstacles along the departure path up to 1500’ above field elevation. Although an engine failure is a serious problem, all transport pilots are trained to fly the aircraft with an engine failure at or after V1.
      All aircraft with this engine type were grounded and required to have the fan blades inspected. A design flaw with the engine cowls has kept the aircraft grounded until the cowl is improved so it will contain the failure.

      @@jpoeng I recall helping my brother fit a "scatter shield" around the flywheel of his racing car engine. It was made of 8mm bullet-resistant aluminium. If the flywheel shattered at high revs, it would shred the driver. Shield was required by the rules, as this was also a known, although somewhat unlikely event.

      @jpoeng 3 года назад +11

      @@77gravity Yeah, we do some similar things. Turbine discs have the most mass, and containment of a disc rupture would be very tough. But, we designed the rotors to ‘clash’ - interfere with each other & slow down an over speeding rotor. The fan has its Kevlar containment belt. The compressor rotor is a drum, rather than a disc, so little blades get liberated, but not big pieces.

      @@UHK-Reaper 😁 Aww, you say the sweetest things! 😆
      The commercial fans are a lot lower RPM, and have a lot more room between the blades, so it takes something pretty big to break a blade. The ones I was on were bird strikes. The HPC is moving a lot faster of course, so a washer in the wrong spot can cause an HCF failure very quickly sometimes. On the military side, with a low bypass turbofan, the fan is more like a LPC & can get FOD’ed out much more easily.

      some ideas for a better planet
      Matthew 5: 27-28
      “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
      Luke 17:1
      And he said to his disciples, “Temptations to sin are sure to come, but woe to the one through whom they come!
      better stop producing / uploading / watching "music videos".. (or similar videos, pics, profile pictures, thumbnails, title names, headlines, usernames + harmful comments, bad words, swearing, lies, disrespect, harmful lyrics etc! on social media + everywhere else too.
      "Temptations to sin" / seduction etc. must stop)
      start deleting? censoring etc?
      destroy your smartphones, cams, data storage devices etc? would be better.
      remove temptations / seduction + other evil things from TV, magazines, radio stations, broadcasting etc? would be better.
      many young people are watching those videos (or reading / typing harmful comments, or doing other bad things!) etc. all over the world. and its NOT ok!
      parents? (or people in authority): intervene?! seriously
      wait.. there is more:

    • @steveperreira5850
      @steveperreira5850 3 года назад +2

      Maybe they can remain so calm because they can’t even see the engines from the cockpit. It. Mr. Bayo, Suppose you are in the cockpit, and you know one of the biggest threat to safety of flight is a catastrophic engine failure. Wouldn’t you want to see the engines visually. This could easily be done with a couple of cameras on each side of the plane, tiny little pinhole cameras in the fuselage would show the front of the engine and the back of each engine. Why in the hell the manufacturers of airliners don’t provide the pilots with video of the engines is beyond my comprehension. I swear to God this is the stupidest industry in the world.
      Furthermore, nowadays, even automobiles are becoming fully automated, a much more difficult scenario than fully automated airplanes. But the airline pilots union has a stranglehold around the neck of the airlines, and they prevent for automation and therefore reduce the safety of flight.
      More than 60 years ago, The airplanes that I worked on in the Air Force were fully automated fighter aircraft, they did not need a pilot at all and they had a much more difficult mission then flying from one city to the next. But the flight industry is full of proud idiot pilots, from the military to civilian aviation, and they all want to be in control when in fact the pilot is always the weakest link in the system.
      Lest Anyone think I am envious, I myself am a pilot, and I am also an engineer that has designed and built components for aircraft, Rockets, you name it.
      It is long overdue that we get the monkey out of the cockpit and let the computers do what they do best, automation, with quick reaction and basically no errors. It is long overdue that we get the monkey out of the cockpit and let the computers do what they do best, automation, with quick reaction and basically no errors.
      If you watch the myriad of videos showing analysis of airplane crashes, you will find that 90% are due to pilot error. Those are errors that would not have happened with automation. That means when we get automation we will have a 10 fold reduction in accidents and deaths.

    • @Slashx92
      @Slashx92 3 года назад +1

      ​@@steveperreira5850 you dont have to see everything to fly the plane, instruments are made to be used instead of vision, that gives very little in most of the time flying. There is no case to have live video of the engines, other than assuming you need to see what is going on, what is false while piloting comercial aircrafts, and being a pilot yourself, you should know that.
      With everything else, I have no idea on why automation is not used more, but in the situation of the video, there are probably independent systems with independent sensors, so having redundancy is a lot harder, and the thing gluing those systems is the pilot doing the checklists.
      If the machine senses a fire in an engine, uses the first fire extinguisher, it fails, the sensors that determine existence of fire melt or get destroyed, or any other reason, the plane thinks the fire is off, and time for brandy!
      The amount of edge cases a *HUMAN* yould have to write logic for, is much more complex than a human doing a checklist.
      A solution could be to train machines, or make machines train themselves to manage the systems, but then you still have one centralized system and a virtual actor that is as vulnerable as the first fire extinguisher
      I'm a software engineer, not an aeronautic one, so I know software is very fragile, so fragile even a nasa vehicle was totaled by bad coded math (imperial/metric mixmash), an old chemotherapy (cannot remember the name) literally removed every hardware security measure and implemented software scurity measures and checklists and people literaly died of radiation poisoning by bad made software. And every industry is vulnerable, every company, from nasa to a small software factory, every person is imperfect.
      The notion that we should stop doing stuff we cannot do perfectly because a machine can is an old mindset. Moreso when the premise of a system doing something a human can do better, when the thing the human is doing is dealing with a broken system
      Assembly lines? Packaging? Organizing? sure, some implementations may even have 99% success with some redundancy. Never perfect.
      Now, flying a plane? doing surgery? writing an essay? designing for humans? *NO*, no when we, as imperfect humans code them, nor when they code themselves with deep learning. Never if the premise is that the machine will do it perfectly in comparison with a human. We are not there yet. And we cannot trust machines to do it, still.
      There is a reason tesla doesnt encourage getting off the wheel, or text, while in the road, even with auto-pilot on. As it takes one literally random human error to potentialy kill someone, because the machine will not adapt to a logical malfunction, not yet at least, and a person can, and will adapt to a faulty machine if it is trained to do so.

      non normal is different from emergency. Because the aircraft can fly with just 1 engine, its not an emergency. It is urgent, hence why the first 5 steps are memory steps, so that you can stop it becoming an emergency. It is non normal, because while you don't operate the aircraft with 1 engine, you still have options. In this case they had just taken off so they were very close to the airport. If they were mid flight, they would use this opportunity to assess their options, ie, divert to another airport, attempt a restart (unlikely in a fire), or continue to the destination.
      An emergency check list would be along the lines of full power loss on both engines.... because you are out of other options and you are landing immediately.

Take your car, for example. If the tire blows out while you're driving, that can be scary in the moment, but you get the tire replaced, and you continue driving. In this situation, the plane had a malfunction, but everyone involved brought the plane to a safe landing, and all is well.

    • @schumi246
      @schumi246 3 года назад +4

      Beyond clearing traffic, what else would there be?? Arrivals could be told to go around, and departures sent to another runway. Seeing as they took off from 25 and landed 26, they landed with traffic, so other planes were landing on 26 could’ve gone around to the N-S runways that were being used for landing. At Denver, the only runways that are sometimes used for both are 17R and 34R. 7/25 and 8/26 work in tandem, if 7 is landing, 8 is for takeoffs, and reverse for opposite wind, 25 for takeoff, 26 for landing. I’m assuming they do this, so on landing you end up closer to the terminal, and don’t have to taxi very far for takeoff. It’s one of the reasons I like that airport so much, and it’s only ever taken me 30 minutes from walking in the front door until I’m at my gate.

    I witnessed the plane shortly after it initiated the left turn. It was coming towards me from the north in a gentle bank and descending through a cloud layer. The plane was much lower than would be normal in that location. At first I thought I was just seeing a condensation trail but quickly realized it was smoke. As it passed overhead I could see a bright orange flame coming from what appeared to be the lower right side of the cowling approximately 5 to 10 feet from the rear of the engine. The cowling was still intact as far as I could see at that point. The plane continued its turn until it was heading back east toward the airport. I continued to visually follow it and approximately 30 to 60 seconds later there was a large puff of smoke at which point it appeared the engine had exploded. I continued to visually follow it until I could no longer see it.

      _there was a large puff of smoke at which point it appeared the engine had exploded_ That late in the sequence, what you saw was most likely the FIRE EXTINGUISHER system being deployed... but we'll find out for sure in about 18 months, when the NTSB gets done plotting the debris "field" and issues their final report.

That doesn't seem a reasonable explanation. The explosion was the same as seen in the dash cam, I was just closer to it. The cowling was intact when the plane flew over me.

      Intuation ,common sense, and a good feel of what is happening around you is ever, a common person's guide to potential alarm !!!
      After take off and clearance to walk around on board inside my national carrier in my youth ,enrought to europe from east africa, I looked out long an hard through a porthole , and noticed a very long left turn , and dip to the left over what looked like a country along the upper nile !!! The nausea, and dizziness,was characteristic, of sudden descent, and yawing ,from previous experience too !!!
      Looking at the progress monitor on the next seat ,this looked like a very unusual directional turn ,assuming that the tragectory co ordinates, were meant to be maintained on a certain straight flight path ahead !!
      I went to the the head pursuer and inquired, why we seamed to be heading back , and got a hushed reply that I was to head back to my seat, and not let anyone know what was now privately confirmed !!!
      After a somewhat irritated assurance, that everything was ok , I did as I was told ...........
      Only to hear in onother 30 minutes that we would be landing at our previous departure !!!
      Nobody else had noticed anything to the end ,and there was astonishment to say the least !!!
      After disembarking, while at the departure gate to reboard again for the same journey, I got a personal little conversation from the cockpit crew, this is how it went !!!
      ' are you studying aviation abroad .....?
      We are told you are one to watch out for though ! Can now let you know that we had to return , because the autopiloting failed ! Usually we fly planes, where passengers snore from one point to onother , but when we have a keen eye amongst them we take notice !!!!!! Now board and let the cabin crew, give you some further instructions , about an hour after take off '!!!!
      Well folks nothing prepared me for the next thing !
      In those non Kevlar cockpit door days , my 22 year old self, was ushered onto the jam seat , behind the captain for the rest of an eight hour flight,and it was delightful to arrive at heathrow at night !!
      I learned about separation standard, outer markers , spiraling in and everything in-between!!!
      For a student mastering in business studies in London, I felt a calling, for aviation in scotland !!!
      Well, about thirty years on , my son did go to Perth , for his aviation training , and I own a travel agency, !
      Who would have thought that the aeroplane ✈️🛫, would be at the center of our lives as fate has had it, today !!!!!
