      Thank you for creating these great, but tragic when there is loss of life! I have loved Aircraft since I saw my first Aircraft when I was a child. My Grandparent's owned a home on the Bay of Quintie and they were approximately 15 minuets away from Canada's largest Airforce Base in Canada. The base is called Canadian Forces Base, 8 Wing Trenton. When I was a kid I would watch with amazement the old 707's doing maneuver's over the the Bay of Quintie. They would fly so close to the water and I have to say that the old 707's are one of the loudest jet's I've heard. The Base also used the old C-130H. Today CFB Trenton is home for the C-17A, the C-130J, CH-47D Helicopter's and a SQN of F/A-18C's. The F/A-18C's were stationed at CFB 8 Wing Trenton since 9/11. There's a parking lot near the end of the runway. I still love to go and watch all theses planes takeoff, train and landing's!

This impacted my family in a way that I'm afraid to fly to this day, since hearing a lot about this when I was a kid. Because of that I ended up nurturing an interest by aviation and found your channel! it all comes together.

      To design the cockpit warning system so that it just indicates a fault with the auto throttle and gives no further warnings or information to the pilots that this in turn is related to a reverse thruster failing and also not give any teaching or information at all about the system to the pilots "because it is so unlikley to happen" is like not having a protection system at all! When the protection system kicked in and pulled back the throttles right at the moment of takeoff after giving as only fault indication the auto throttle system, well... If I had been the pilot I would probably had reacted just the same way thinking the throttle system was faulty and try push it back up and thus crash the plane. The designers of that protection system did not think far for sure! You need to go through a serious thought step like: "If we give as only alert auto throttle disconnect and then it pulls the throttle back when reverser deploys, how will the pilot react to this?" Probably not good for sure. Im not a pilot but as said: I would probably had done the very same thing in that situation with the information I had as I would want the plane to climb and have been given no knowledge or indication at all that the fact the auto throttle is down is because a reverse thruster have deployed! Clear and detailed cockpit warnnigs and indications about potentially disastrous faults should be a no brainer for plane designers and engineers!

Right after the disaster It was known the problem was in the reverse, 'cause several people on ground saw the reverse opening and closing on and on. My father said - "you never try to solve a engine problem during taken off, you have to shut down the engine and proceed the take off with a singles engine - witch is not a problem, the plane is projected to do so - only after reaching 1.000" you should try to undestand what is the cause of the failure" !!

    here in Brazil, this crash hit hard on the people. since many other incidents happened with the fokker 100 being involved, such as an in-flight explosion in 1997, 2 belly landings at the SAME TIME, and a landing gear failure, the fokker 100 was hit badly. This affected the plane's reputation SO HARDLY, that people were afraid of the plane and refused to fly on it at all costs, this made TAM retire all fokker 100s in 2007 some of which were delivered to oceanair, another brazilian airline. this fear of the plane was still persistent, so oceanair took matters into their own hands, commercially anouncing the plane as "fokker mk-28" eventually, the plane's age, along with a landing gear failure incident, oceanair retired the fokker 100 in 2015.

    Man, this was a tough one to watch because this accident was so preventable. While you could say pilot error was a contributing factor to the crash, it’s hard to fault the pilots because they were not trained for this situation. It’s also tough to hear the last words spoken by the pilots. It’s amazing to hear that even when disaster is a foregone conclusion, they are still staying calm trying their best to save the plane.

    @EpicJoshua314 2 года назад +20

    Something to mention about the pilots actions that day, I don’t know if the TAM pilots knew about this, but at least year and a half prior there was a problem with the auto thrust system on the A310 where during the initial climb the left throttle lever would move back to idle and this problem could not be fixed so airlines had a policy that the Pilot Not Flying would have their hand on the throttle. This problem was a contributing factor in the crash of TAROM 371 (however, the main cause of that crash was the co-pilot’s unfamiliarity with Western style ADIs).
    I find it odd that on Lauda 004, a Boeing 767, that the pilots received an indication on their EICAS that the left engine was in reverse/the thrust reverser deployed but no thrust reverse indication (even on landing when the thrust reversers are used) was on the EICAS of the Fokker 100.

    Another great video Chloe! In this crash, there was some details that explains why the crew thought they're facing an autothrottle malfunction: the relay that locks the reverser entered in short-circuit midair right in the flight before, this caused the autothrottle warning light on and off several times, so the crew of this flight reported and briefed the next one about an autothrotlle issue. That's why the captain was so sure about it, the crew was heavily induced. Additionally Fokker jets had a rule that turns off all "secondary issues" warnings until 400ft, so the crew does not had a clue about what was happening with the reverser.
    Another detail about why the company doesn't trained his pilots to the reverser unlock scenario was because one year before, they contacted Fokker about it and the reply was: this scenario is impossible to happen.

    Whilst pilot error did technically contribute to this accident, it's difficult to really fault the pilots. The warning they got during the roll and the way the throttle moved misled them and they made what most people would consider a reasonable response to a situation where the right hand engine has gone to idle and the aircraft is yawing to the right. I'd imagine most competent pilots would have responded in a similar manner unless they knew specifically about the system that closes the throttle in the event of an in-air thrust-reverser deployment.
    Which leads to the conclusion that making pilots fully aware of a plane's systems can only make them safer pilots. In some ways there are a lot of similarities between this crash and the MCAS debacle. A safety system that the engineers saw fit to decide was not the pilots' concern ended up fighting against a pilot that wasn't aware of it, resulting in a crash.

    I think the main reason Fokker aircraft are found here in Australia is our climate. We dont often have to worry about snow and icing on our aircraft. As far as I am aware fokker aircraft had a susceptibility to icing causing in some cases loss of control. Since snowing isnt often here in Australia Fokker aircraft can thrive here. I see them almost on the daily flying overhead inbound for Perth.

      Also, airlines in Australia have operated Fokker aircraft previously (viz. F-27, F-50 and F-28) quite successfully without many hull losses or fatalities. The F-27 that went into the sea off Mackay resulted in fatalities, and VH-TQQ was lost on a training flight in the early 80s but didn't result in injuries or fatalities.

    The video about Air Ontario 1363 you allude to should be quite interesting, given the material you'll have to work with. Given thr organization turmoil at the Canadian TSB in the aftermath of the Arrow Air DC-8 crash, the TSB didn't investigate the Air Ontario crash. It was investigate by a judicial commission headed by a judge, and the ensuing investigation was far more detailed than any TSB or NTSB investigation I've ever seen, including expanded discussion of human factors and the effects of corporate culture. It also didn't help that the F28 type was ultra=sensitive to snow/ice contamination on leading edges. (USAir 405 at LGA was another example).

    if our modern day vehicles can have a backup camera I don't see why commercial airliners can't have small cameras at fixed points around the plane (with monitors in the cockpit) just so the pilots can better cover their bases. How many cases have we seen now that involved crashes (or near crashes) that could've been immensely aided by the extra situational awareness that such cameras would've provided?

    It's a concern that, rather than engineering a potential fault out, it's argued that it's simply too unlikely to occur, to bother fixing . The truth is, unlikely things occur every day. How often do we hear statements like "We didn't think that could ever happen." or "Wow, what are the chances of THAT happening?" When I'm strapped into a giant aluminium tube, blasting through the atmosphere like a massive projectile, I would like to know that even the slimmest of potentials for disaster has been proactively engineered out beforehand, not hidden away. I'm looking at you, Boeing 737 Max.

    The first officer thought the first pull to the right was just the auto throttle cutting back the right engine - meanwhile with right engine at idle and captain using rudder it easily went wings level, whilst FO was doing the intuitive thing by increasing thrust again on the right engine, ..
    But when engine spooled up with the reverse thrust buckets deployed just on the right, he was making the plane slow down and slew hard to the right - the exact opposite of what he expected.

      The F28 did not have leading edge slats that boost the lift over just the rear trailing edge flaps alone. I think the F28 crashes (one in Canada and one in NY LaGuardia) might have not have happened if they had leading edge slats. Makes a difference. The first series of the DC-9 (10 series) also lacked leading edge slats. And there was a DC-9-10 crash in Denver in snowy weather and I always thought that not having the slats might have prevented this tragedy too. The later DC-9 series 20, 30, 40 and 50 all had the slats, so maybe they learned their lesson.
