    Amongst the many inaccuracies in this video (everyone without a seat belt will be sucked out, the plane will deteriorate etc, LOL, decompression events happen literally once every day somewhere) is also the differential pressure which is in fact around 8 psi in airliners. Shockingly, you arrive at a correct Kgf for the door (~11 tons), not sure how, beginner's luck.

    "The plane's door is electronically locked and the pilot is the only person who has access" is definitely not the case for obvious safety reasons. In a crash or other emergency situation, the pilots can be killed or incapacitated which would defeat the purpose of having an emergency exit.

    You don't get sucked out, you'r getting blown out by the air that is escaping the plane...

      wrong. That plane was NOT at altitude, therefore it was easy to open an no decompression occurred.

  • @rumblethis2023
    @rumblethis2023 3 года назад +4

    The pressure in the plane keeps it from being opened at altitude.

  • @marcox2937
    @marcox2937 2 года назад +2

    In the case of South African Airways flight 295, they descend to a lower altitude and reduced the aircraft’s speed, as well as depressurising the aircraft. That way, they could crack open the main cabin door to clear the smoke from the cabin, though it probably made their fiery situation worse

    Watched this video after the Alaska 1282 incident, a "fake" door plug blew out at 16000 feet partially sucking out a seat with it. This wasn't a door, it was a permanent panel to fill in where an optional door would have been. That God that seat was empty and that it wasn't at cruise altitude. As of that incident 737 max 9s have been grounded by the FAA

    Most doors open outwards. So how can higher pressure inside the cabin prevents them opening?

      @@jackglossop4859 The door has mechanical panels on it that make it bigger than the opening in the side of the plane. The door is swung into the inside of the plane, the panels are moved into position making the door larger. Then the door is pushed into the opening and latched. Once the air pressure outside is lower than that inside the door is being shoved into a hole that's smaller than the door. At that point you could unlatch the door, but it would remain pinned closed since there's no way it would fit through the opening. Once the plane has landed the door is pulled into the plane, the panels are retracted, and the door can now fit through the opening and be outside the plane for passenger boarding.
      There's a video named "Closing airplane door" by avgeek that shows the operation of the door panels (if you can stand the crummy choice of music).

    I came here wondering why they don't have parachutes available for when you know the plane is going down. Though allegedly at lower altitudes you could open the doors. I'm still confused on whether it could work?

    • @wiguna234m
      @wiguna234m 10 месяцев назад

      To properly use a parachute, you need training first which is pretty much already hard, second theres a possible chance that there's a pregnant lady, kids, babies that obviously can't use parachute, and third weight, parachutes will be heavy too and it will cost more fuel for the plane company and ticket prices will increase dramatically.
      So yea plane is pretty much safer with no parachute

    Dear Interesting Engineering,
    I’m Lunny Cen from the International Aviation Supply Chain (IASC). I'm writing to you to ask your permission to use your video "Why you can’t open airplane doors" on RUclips.
    The IASC is a company founded with the mission to create channels of collaboration among global and Chinese aviation clusters, and bring aviation culture to China. These years, IASC has been recognized globally. In 2021, IASC signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Washington State Department of Commerce to improve access for their local suppliers to the Chinese market. In 2022, IASC signed an MoU with the European Aerospace Cluster Partnership (EACP). In doing so, we have been jointly developing effective channels of cooperation and learning between global clusters through the Global Aerospace Cluster Partnership (GACP) China Hub.
    We have recently seen your video on RUclips and would like to request permission to use this video to produce a Mandarin new clip. It will be used to promote your content at the IASC Leadership Summit and other related platforms.
