    This is the story of the 2015 blackbushe phenom crash. On the 31st of july 2015 a phenom 300 private jet was to fly from milan italy to blackbushe airport in the UK. Now this private jet didnt have just any standard rich people on board. On today's flight was bin laden's immediate family. Yes, that bin laden. Todays occupants were raja Hashim one of the wives of bin ladends dad, her daughter sana bin laden and the daughters husband zuhair hashim. What i find interesting about all of this is that the bin laden clan was free to private jet about the entire planet despite them being immediate family members of the man who used to be the most wanted man on earth. I assumed that his immediate family would be sanctioned or something but apparently not. Well for whatever reason the family had chartered a jet and they were being flown by a single pilot who had 11,000 hours of flying experience.
    We join the phenom, tail number HZ-IBN as it descends through the london terminal area, As the plane streaked across london it was handed over from ATC region to ATC region eventually ending up in the control of farnborough approach. Blackbushe airport is kind of a hot spot for business jets as it offers easy access to the stuff rich people like to do in england. Which is probably drinking very expensive tea.
    When the pilot had the runway in sight, Farnborough approach cleared the phenom to descend under the pilot's discretion. Once the plane was closer to the airport the controller asked the pilot to contact blackbushe information. The phenom the entered the left hand circuit for runway 25 via the crosswind leg. But as the phenom entered the circuit, it flew very near to a microlight. Seeing the mircolight the pilot started to climb in an attempt to avoid the microlight. This is when the TCAS kicked in. TCAS, traffic collision avoidance system is as the name suggests a system designed to warn pilots about traffic conflicts and gives them resolution advisories. Basically if the system thinks that youre gonna crash into another plane it will ask you to climb or descend. Basically the system will tell you what it thinks will minimize the chance of a collision.
    In this case the TCAS system asked the pilot to descend. This advisory quickly changed to “maintain vertical speed” which then again changed to “ adjust vertical speed”. This was because the climb had put the phenom very close to another plane that was above it.
    Once the phenom was clear of the conflict it was way too high and fast, the pilot put the plane into a curving turn as it descended towards the runway threshold. The rate of descent at some points reached 3000 feet per minute. In fact the plane hit that 3000 feet per minute of descent value between 1200 and 500 feet. If you cant tell this is one approach that should be abandoned. After breaching 500 feet the rate of descent slowed. Why dont you pause the video go down into the comments and drop your guess as to what the new rate of descent is. Ill wait. Are you back, its 2500 feet per minute. For the uninitiated thats screaming fast. The jet passed over the runway threhsold at 151 knots, for some context it was supposed to be at 108 knots. This jet was wayy to fast. Then it touched down very hard and very far down the runway. Seeing the plane land the AFISO or the aerodrome flight information service officer initiated a full emergency because he knew that there was no hope of this plane stopping in the runway that was left.

    Up until last year I was a regular photographer at Blackbushe and on 2014/08/15 this aircraft departed Blackbushe but almost immediately declared a problem with the nose wheel not retracting, They landed back at the airfield and stopped on the taxyway about halfway back to the terminal some one got out and walked to the nose of the aircraft then got back in, it then continued back to the runway and took off again. After reviewing my photos my suspicions were confirmed, they had left the nose wheel lock in place before the first departure ! So much for the pre-flight walk around.

    When I was on a plane that had to abort landing twice, passengers started complainting. They did not understand that an aborted landing is a good thing.

      I don't agree, the problem here is not a great deal of experience in uncontrolled airspace. Basically he was flying into a mess and simply was not used to managing that mess. Guys just become rusty on radio work, they get flustered due to annoying alarms, maybe additional stress. He didn't need another pilot, he needed a button to shut up all the nonse, a simple 6 pack gauge set, no ATC, and being a little bit of a jerk to the prop aircraft in the pattern basically stating his minimum airspeed wouldn't make him compatible in a pattern with them so he would go and make a very long pattern / approach and be in contact with them to make sure there was no conflict. Fly the expensive stuff, take command of situations because it is absolutely less forgiving. A second pilot makes it much, much easier, but it's not absolutely necessary in this instance.

    TCAS doesn’t “ask” you to climb or descend…a TCAS RA tells you to climb or descend. This was a very unstable approach. Normally a Phenom on a stable approach should be no more than Vref+10 knots at 500 ft above ground and less than 1000fpm descent on final approach, which I presume would be around 100-110 kits. If you aren’t stable under those criteria, you should go around. Uncontrolled airports (no ATC on the field) are inherently risky, as you have to be pilot and air traffic controller at the same time.

    It very much sounds like the pilot became flustered due to the confusion around the ultra light (and overhead traffic) and attempted to correct by forcing the landing, when he should have waited, asked for a go around and just cleared the area completely, and THEN made a "clean" approach to the runway.

      It used to get very busy with jet circuit training traffic at my old RAF base, sometimes 4 in the circuit and another to join, controller could get maxed out and risk mistaken identity. So he would tell everyone to leave the circuit and call for rejoin which gave back safe spacing and allowed him get all the order back. He could also tell them to stay over a known visual point and orbit til called in to join.

However, I could certainly go faster than an airport would want me to. Most airports that service GA aircraft want you around 100 MPH. When he had to climb to avoid traffic to me that was the point he should have contacted ATC and said - tower, I had to avoid traffic. I'm at X feet and need vectors to a new approach. Offer to do another loop around the airport, something. In this video they said he had to descend at 3000 FPM because of his altitude. So this is like a hawk or eagle going in for the kill. It was reckless in that environment. Normally you're more like 500 FPM around an airport approach. When you lose altitude like that depending on how he did it, you're also accelerating. I used to own a tailwheel airplane and I know how to slip down fast. Light tailwheel aircraft have a problem in that they like to go up easily. You dirty up the flight characteristics to get down fast. I don't think he did that because his passengers would likely panic. They would certainly be like - WHAT'S GOING ON! They may have done that anyway. As I said above - abort the landing. Tower, unable to land due to a collision avoidance. Going around. They'll say - maintain runway heading or turn to heading Y, climb and maintain z feet. Then they'll work you in again. There's no shame in going around in a situation like that. The most important thing is that you don't bend up the metal. No aerobatics to land, nothing unusual. Passengers, other pilots and so on like nice normal predictable flying and landings.
      The only time that all goes out the window is if you're out of fuel. Then declare an emergency and get it down.
      I think he wanted to get it done. "I can make this landing."

      Not sure about the UK but in the US, from aopa: We must emphasize that the requirement to comply with the VFR cruising altitudes only applies to those VFR flights conducted higher than 3,000 feet above ground level (agl). Below 3,000 feet agl, other VFR or IFR aircraft could be at any altitude that potentially may conflict with your flight path.Jul 5, 2005
      You also must stay above Traffic pattern altitude, tpa, which in this case was 800' for that category of aircraft.
      If you're at 3000 or above you must maintain a cruising altitude based on whether you're vfr (+500') or ifr, and whether you're headed east (odd thousands) or west (even thousands)

    it be interesting to have the communications between air traffic and the microlight in question ! how do they got into conflict in a controlled airport ?? even in an uncontrolled airspace that happening its extremely rare ! they should had run some test on the controller as well ! in no way the decision on who land first or second's up to the pilots ! as soon as air traffic realised there was a conflict ( assuming they did, the way it looks like .... ) they should had directed the phenom into a hold and let the microlight land first ( its safer so there is risk of it entering in the wake of the phenom ) the stress on the pilot was heavy but in no way exceptional at all .. there is another factor ! I used to work in business aviation, 30% of the stress come from the clients ! theirs demands according to them have too be met ! and the airline push the crews to meet these demands ( they're afraid to loose the clients ) In any crash its also very important to look into that as well !

      Blackbushe has what we in the UK call an AFISO, aerodrome flight information service officer. He has control over ground movements, but not over any movements in the air! It's a way of saving money as you don't need a full blown ATCer on the box! We have 3 levels of radio service, A/G is air to ground, it is advisory only and the operator of the radio is not necessarily qualified! AFISO is as described above, and then you have full ATC. As described in the video, the pilot of the pilots were all talking to the AFISO, whereas they should have been talking to each other, as the AFISO has nothing to do with them until they land! So your first sentence is not accurate, they were in basically uncontrolled AIRspace, once on the ground there was some control! Also the decision as to who go's first would indeed be down to the procedures laid down in the AIP not the controller or the pilots! It would have been down to who was there first and the give way rules. In my experience the slowest aircraft would give way to the Jet, as he was intending by extending downwind, the jet should have had his ears open and allowed that to continue instead of extending himself. The reason is simple, the speed a jet flies in the pattern is way faster than a microlight, so the time it takes a microlight to land and clear the runway the jet would have to extend by a few miles or more, whereas the micro would only extend by a mile. Just to be clear, this piece of airspace is very congested, only 5 miles to the east is Heathrow's Surface to 2500 class D, and only 2 miles to the south is Fanrboroughs ATZ! throw in a couple of Danger areas a few miles to the east and it's a lot to manage in a jet flying around 130Kn pattern speed at low altitude. From other comments it sounds like the pilot had experience of Blackbushe, so should have been aware of the need to fly an extremely accurate circuit and the likleyhood of encountering slower traffic? As stated before, it sounds like the VVIP pax may have been partly to blame for the excess stress on the pilot, but that in no way excuses such bad airmanship!

    Although it calls itself an airport Blackbushe is actually a general aviation air field for private pilots rather than an airport. Nearby Farnborough is where most charter jets go. The aircraft which use this field tend to be slow single propellor jobs. Not à good mix when fast jets enter the equation.
    A complicating factor is that Farnborough, Lasham and RAF Odiham are all close by. You can see all of the simultaneously from a glider above Lasham.

    Apparently, the bin Laden family ran a large construction company in Saudi Arabia. Osama was the black sheep of the family. Another half brother, Salem bin Laden was a big aviation proponent. He was a pilot and had his own aircraft; ultimately he died when it crashed. But even more interesting is that Salem bin Laden owned a GA airport, Houston Gulf in Texas. Many NASA astronauts had their personal aircraft based at Houston Gulf because it was jus a few miles from NASA, located in League City. Back in the late 1980s, I made a flight into Houston Gulf myself, a friendly airport. Anyway, like so many GA airports, it has been wiped off the map and replaced with a residential subdivision. Local officials just could not generate enough interest to operate it after Salem died.

    A few thoughts on your analysis: "Brainstorming traffic resolution" is well within the capabilities of most pilots, it's expected and we first learn these skills in the pattern at our local GA field or pilot training base, I disagree that a tower controller may have done anything but resolve the initial confusion created by the microlight and Phenom pilots and it's entirely likely he would have just cleared them to execute that plan (Phenom #1, microlight #2). Next, I was not familiar with this accident until your video, but you do not clarify whether the Phenom received a TA (Traffic Advisory) or an RA (Resolution Advisory), though you do imply two RAs in the textual description to the video. When TCAS issues a TA, the pilot is not required to maneuver, in fact the system simply says "traffic, traffic" and provides no other guidance. During an RA, the pilot is required (by regulation) to follow the RA-provided climb or descent to resolve the impending collision/conflict. It's unclear from your video what the Phenom pilot received and what he was required to do, though you do imply it was a descent in the description below the video itself. I also have to assume it was an RA received by the Phenom during the base turn as the jet turned and descended towards the microlight, obligating the pilot to climb away from the conflict. In that case, the Phenom pilot did what he should have, that is, climb. It's at this point that I personally would have just gone around/discontinued the approach/executed an overshoot (British), as the approach has already been interrupted and put the aircraft in a position to high to safely continue the approach. I've personally gone around many, many times for getting too close to preceding traffic with overhead traffic present. This requires the pilot to sandwich themselves at an altitude to avoid the traffic and simply proceed straight ahead over the runway, even offset a little to prevent overflying traffic on the runway. The second TCAS alert (clarified as an "adjust vertical speed" RA in your video description, which means simply to not climb so steeply) added to the confusion, but both conflicts would have likely been avoided if the Phenom pilot would have gone around. In any event, ending up so high and fast on final would have mandated the go around instead of the unstabilized approach and crash which resulted. Always better to go around and try again in those situations and the pilot's failure to do so was really the cause of this accident. Though you mention the different TCAS modes in your description, the video itself is not as detailed and spending an additional 20 seconds to clarify these modes would have added a lot to your description of this accident. Also, what did the accident report cite as the contributory and casual factors in this accident?

      That's crazy talk. They simply are not that hard to fly. If you had to monitor turbine inlet temps constantly or other issues that were a problem in earlier non-FADEC jets then yet. But that workload isn't there. The V speeds are easy to memorize. The modern controls are very intuitive. Heck even the radios are easier because you can preload everything into the system including charts. It's rediculous. The problem is lack of classic stick and ball and too much auto pilot, auto land, automated ILS approaches, etc. Scanning the instruments and maintaining course, altitude, airspeed is a perishable skill. It sounds like this guy was tired or stressed or something was going on. BE SAFE .... remember emotion is one of those E's.

    I'm surprised the microlight would have an expensive TCAS system installed. TCAS requires both aircraft to have TCAS, and their TCAS systems communicate with each other to determine the desired action. Morel likely is that the jet pilot recognized he was getting close to the microlight and climbed without a TCAS alert, then TCAS alerted the second conflict with another aircraft that had TCAS installed.
