Both engines seem to be giving enough thrust to make a smooth, controlled landing. I've always wondered about the fuel dumping though. Why not make planes sturdy enough to land with full tanks? Wouldn't that also make them safer? Sure, how much are you willing to pay for "I'll get there for sure" instead of "maybe I'll die in a fireball"?
i saw the engines pop open when it was landing. im guessing it the engine reverse breakes or something. can someone explain how they work? seems so fascinating..
when the engine opens it basically deflects the airflow . The high speed blast is no longer going throgh the nozel on the back, it blastes up and down where the engine opens from. the high speed blast hits the oncoming air and also disturbs the airflowing over the top of the wing and the bottom of the wing slowing the airplane down. i hope this helps .
well yes there is a maximum touchdown weight, but if he is doing this due to some problem, its because he wants to shorten the touchdown roll. With only one engine or whatever the problem is, you don't want to use the entire runway, in theory.
okay so its true everyone made it out safe, and i must tip my hat to the pilot for an amazing job. And i say this next part as a side note because this is my backyard (i live 15 min away) and i mean no disrespect, but has anyone even begin to think about how much Fuel is now IN Puget Sound and Eliot Bay??? Fuel and water dont mix. once again the pilot has my respect. bravo. 6/5 stars
i don't think that the fuel actually goes in the water...the fact that it is released that high up, basically kinda dissipates the fuel....so most of up does of it evaporates right when it is released....
yeah some of the fuel may have gotten on the ground and in the water but... at the right altitude and right airspeed JET A, which is the fuel that's used on these aircrafts, wouldn't be an issue if they decided to dump it... I think it evaporates quickly if I'm not mistaken, I remember reading about it in my aviation books plus... I live in Western Washington to and I saw this live, they reported what you're talking about and they said what I just said.
OMFG... Chem trails? Are you serious? What reason would any jet company have to release chems into the atmosphere?? Those trails you see behind planes are called CONTRAILS.. look that up..
@thefsxflyer it had an engine fire right after takeoff. I was on another plane right at the end of the runway and we all saw the engine spitting fire out

Reverse thrust. Aids in slowing the aircraft down when landing.

60,000 gallons.dumped in less that 10 minutes.
Think about 10+ years of 24/7 world wide chem dumping... ALL WATER, FOOD CROPS, LIVESTOCK AND OUR CHILDREN ARE SATURATED WITH THOSE CHEMS.
If your not aware of chem trails/clouds check out some vids. If that doesn't prove it for you.... LOOK UP!
