Wil there be a video from the incident in The Netherlands today too with also an engine failure/blow with pieces falling from the sky?

this same flight / type / runway was the bird strike + grass fire at DEN in 2016 too

What I find interesting about the United situation is that when comparing this to the incidents listed above, none of them have the entire engine housing come off. I am calling it housing as it literally surrounds the entire engine from the front to the back not sure what the technical term is though. The videos above show either the front intact or the back intact. To me, it seems this so far was a unique situation that hasn't happened before.

This was just a few miles from my house and some of the debris landed in a park I've been to that's next to a family member's house.

@@Vanilla_Donut It's called a cowling or a nacelle (not the same thing but both could refer to the part that fell off here, if I understand correctly.)

@@MyGoogleUKposts , who needs Atis with a good controller like that , barometric pressure immediately, wind before landing....

Most commercial aircraft have ACARs onboard which will download the latest metars / taf / atis for the destination airport when it’s entered in the fms. Significantly easier to read a screen or print out than write it down.

I like that he had a discrete freq. for the ground crews before the plane was on the ground. That ATC was as on the ball as Victor (VASAviation) was...

Thank you. I was the chief pilot. Do you have a daughter

@sam s Your attitude and oddly harsh opinion doesn't nullify the stress and significance of every emergency a pilot experiences and successfully handles. Discrediting the achievement is the same as discrediting a surgeon who successfully conducts emergency surgery. Saving lives may be the job, but that's not to discredit the work done. Please drop the cynicism. This isn't the time or place for it.

The initial Mayday call had a touch of panic in it. Entirely understandable, and not a problem, but not "no hint of excitability".

@sam s wow. You're just the regular Monday morning quarterback, aren't you, but no fault found on your part. How fortunate we all are for your input. Sam s says job well done, and performing to their paycheck level. Thank you so much 💞! Your input and contribution to the situation was impeccable 🙄

@@sunbulah9779 clearly was a typo. you dont need to be boring.

Single engine landings are required on every proficiency check. Also, 777 can auto land on a single engine.

@@arturdlucas clearly it was a typo*

@@acxgr6457 My sentence was correct. There's a phenomenum called ellipsis.

And someone on avherald claiming it doesn’t make a difference, in the face of a former 777 instructor 🤷🏻‍♂️🙄

@Brokosa YF I wonder why an instructor would say that then.

It makes no difference in a 777. Most EOP’s are straight ahead but places like Zurich and Hong Kong have immediate or low level turns. The whole “turning into a live engine” isn’t considered when you are 300 tons and 500ft off the ground.

Interesting - Captain Joe commented on the complexity of this in his video about the event. It does sound like it comes from training on smaller planes, but whether that applies here is apparently worthy of a whole other video!

@@mattscarf Yes he did and Capt. Joe is a real ATP. The United pilot immediately answered left which indicates knowledge. Turning into the good engine added a layer of safety which paid off handsomely.

Yes I caught that!

It’s a UA thing, many of our pilots will use aloha and mahalo when they’re operating Hawaii flights! We even use it in our gate announcements and final boarding calls

And kudos to the cabin crew for managing the emergency in regards to the PAX. There wasn't a single injury reported, neither during the emergency landing nor during evac.

What you doing here TimeBucks haha

nothing a good few sets of underwear won't sort out....

Imagine going to get your paper and seeing an engine ring in your front yard.

Too bad everyone didnt blow up

gotta hand it to them to get right back on another aircraft after that:)

@That's Life This is recommended communication strategy for every mayday, yes. But the rules also say that you should "communicate in a manner that best adresses the emergency without regard for other rules", so it's kinda up to ATC and the pilot what they wanna do.

There's always 7700 even if the entire message is stepped over

It’s also trading due to SOS Morse code

Video from people on the ground filmed pieces falling from the sky. And onboard video of the safe landing, there was cheering. Not sure if they'll want to finish their trip to Hawaii. Being over ocean for a long time? Glad it happened over land

@@recoveringsoul755 There is a reason why takeoff and landings are most dangerous part of flying. Among other things, engines are not pushed as hard at cruise condition.

@@recoveringsoul755 Local news reported some people were able to catch a later flight, others decided flying wasn't such a great idea right now.

@@kevinm8051 I'd have a bad feeling about being over an ocean anyway, that would have been a sign to me

@@recoveringsoul755 But what are the chances of two failures like that in a row?

Agreed wholeheartedly. Textbook, and a great demonstration for future safety/abnormals handling briefs.

Well-observed, good ear.

Not a sound you would want to hear on freq

As soon as I heard the news, I rushed to Victor’s channel to get the audio. Looking forward to the JB report!

This looks like the cowling incident that killed that lady a year or so ago

He was exceedingly helpful.

I would like your comment, but currently you have 69 likes. Nice

We need to clone him 70,000 times and license him out to each authority.

A burning engine on a wing full of fuel for Hawaii is not a routine engine out. Large pieces falling on a park! I'm surprised the engine burned that long. But they all handled it well.

@@billfly2186 I wasn't referring to the actual emergency as routine. By definition, no emergency is routine. However, it was handled in such a way that made it routine. That's something that's drilled into us as pilots from Day 1. I amended my statement to avoid the ambiguity though, thanks!

@@billfly2186 the engine was not on fire. It was still running quite normally, it was just missing the cowling. The fact that the pilot didnt see the urgency to fly straight in and land confirms the engine was not on fire. Take the cowling off any jet engine and you'll see the same.

@@sapsion That's incorrect. The fire seen in this video is located within the reverser bleed air duct, which has no direct access to the combustor or exhaust stages. No flame should be seen in this portion of the engine during flight. The pilot did not need to have any additional urgency for a variety of reasons, including the fact that aircraft are fully certified for flight on one engine. Beyond that, performance data would have been calculated for a return to the departing runway, and the pilot would be avoiding tailwind landings so as to not nullify the usefulness of remaining thrust. You can also hear the EFS chime in the cockpit at 1:01. Once again, this is NOT normal engine operation.

@@TitanTankNate All good. I know what you meant.

I can speak from personal experience (albeit in a C172 under much less stressful conditions) that in an emergency once the training and muscle memory kicks in, the adrenaline and confidence of being prepared for an emergency really brings calm to your nerves. It's temporary though- bodies start shaking and sweating once feet touch the ground.

I think it was more like "get us a turn now." Taking off west out of DEN they're pointed right at the mountains. Might not have climb performance above terrain on the 1 engine.

PROSPERITY BONANZA

What maybe sounds like "panic" in the beginning is just task saturation. The pilots have to do so many things at once that the less important things are done quickly or not at all. And as we always say on this channel: Aviate, Navigate, Communicate - in that order!

Working hard

@@VASAviation I saw a typo and thought "Who cares, VASAviation is amazing"

A real pucker moment, and wake up call to all of your senses.

Took them too long to land that aircraft in my opinion. They could have easily made another earlier left turn to align with the runway unless they were dumping fuel?

@@JohnMbanaja its a long flight, probably heavy with fuel, probably overweight landing, need to run checklists for that

@@JohnMbanaja they have to run checklists which may include dumping fuel depending on the load. Suppressing fire, shutting down the engine, checking other systems all takes time.

@@JohnMbanaja They mentioned checklists a bunch of times. Presumably if the plane is flying well and no further developments, it's safer to take the time to check things out and plan the landing properly than it is to rush.

I have a family member who lives in the Broomfield/Westminster area, I was just there a few weeks ago myself. That must have been terrifying to see. Do you know exactly where this debris fell?

@@lisalu910 I was at soccer practice at the commons and debris fell over al over the artificial turf fields about 100ft from where I was practicing and in the neighborhood just west of the commons

Absolutely, remember, any plane can safely fly with 1 engine INOP, even if you lose 2, you don't just fall out of the sky.

@@812MSS actually it damaged part of the underside by the wing root. Glad everything turned out ok though!

@@joseanrodm9519 , me too. But it looked like they were still dealing with or had to endure severe vibration. Fortunately they also didn't have to deal with an excessive fuel load which could have lead to longer flight time, if they didn't want to exceed the landing weight limit.

@@weldonyoung1013 don't know about the 77, but most likely it would've been shut down. At least on my aircraft it would've shut down. And also, there might be an overweight landing procedure in the 777 as there are in a couple models I know of

@@joseanrodm9519 well, except if those debris hit the wing or any structure of the plane, but good thing plane design has came a long way which make this a non-issue.

Could be done with a bot

@@aviationandotherstuff6571 They filed the wrong "ALOHA" into the flight computer. (Seriously, great job by the crew handling this emergency and getting everyone down safely.)

They use mahalo all the time at PHNL. The Pilot is probably a regular on the route. 🤙🏽

I caught that the second viewing. First time I heard what they sub-titles told me.

That's what I thought. He must have had Hawaii in his head already

MGTOW? :-) Maximum Gross Take Off Weight Men Go Their Own Way

superjumbo

Anyone know where the blade(s) ended up? Looks like missed the aircraft luckily unlike the QF32 RR failure.

I think this counts as a contained failure, to be honest. The other video of the engine shows the engine looking pretty much intact, albeit with some oil fire coming out of the reverser buckets. But its still spinning, and still cylindrical, and there's no visible perforation, no loss of cabin pressure or hull perforation mentioned on the mayday call. I wonder if the vibration of the wrecked engine fluttered the cowling loose enough that the slipstream pulled it off the aircraft. Anyway, my understanding of an uncontained engine failure is one where the blades are flung out of the engine, which doesnt appear to be the case here.

@@cbellers Yeah I guess we'll find out eventually, I was going to post something similar but then it looked to me like the fan was so out of balance that some blades must've come off - which then would explain the cowling coming off - but you're right even a contained failure is so violent it could cause the damage seen.

@@cbellers There's an image on AV Herald which shows part of one fan blade missing.

The checklist would only take a few minutes to complete. They’d have to run their performance for a return to land overweight, and run the overweight landing checklist too. With an active fire on the plane, even if it is engine oil burning, it’s still wise to get it back on the ground.

ATC would have never extended that courtesy to a GA pilot lol. Would have probably scolded them for causing a disturbance

@@tech99070 Yes they would have. You declare an emergency, and ATC will do whatever they can to help you get on the ground safely.

Underrated comment.

That's not very typical, I'd just like to make that point.

Probably compressor blade failure. Loss of cowling should not start a fire. Blade failure could blow off the cowling.

@@hardrockuniversity7283 looks like the entire nacelle

Cowling landed on someone's truck in their driveway

It'll take a BIG 'broom' to sweep that debris 'field' clear!!

@@maxj0930 - Seen it, covered it. We are Farmer’s - Da da da da da da da da.

Believe it or not, even with the detonation and the vibration, the pylon and engine structures themselves are designed to withstand *catastrophic* forces without causing separation or additional damage to the airframe. Check out "Engine Blade-Off Testing" on youtube to see what I mean, and it will really wow you!

@@lisalu910 Around 136th and west of Sheridan. It is in Broomfield, along its north eastern border.

@@woodrax My son lives on the northeast side of Standley Lake, so between Broomfield and Westminster. I was just there a few weeks ago.

@@lisalu910 Indeed

Yes because they were on the way to hawaii. So cute. Well, until a few seconds later then it was sad...

@Octopus ohhh yeah, they change the engines out during the lift of the aircraft.
