  • I have said it before and I will say it again..British pilots are the best in the world!

  • lol 13:08 "what on EARTH happened...?"

  • A negative pressure in the fuel tanks or obstruction of a fuel tank vent that allows air to replace the fuel discharged from the tanks could stop the flow of fuel to the engines....right?

  • They never explain how the ice got in there in the first place. Earlier they explained that it wasn't frozen fuel, as that required colder temperatures than they had, so by "ice" I assume they mean H2O. So the question is, HOW dod water get into the fuel line in the first place? I don't understand that part.

  • @dunbar9finger From Wiki: Jet fuel can contain a small amount of dissolved water that does not appear in particulate form. As an aircraft gains altitude, the temperature drops and Jet fuel's capacity to hold water is diminished. Particulate water can separate out and could become a serious problem if it freezes in fuel lines or filters, blocking the flow of fuel and shutting down an engine.

  • The captain is everything I like about British aviation.

  • What worries me is that a sophisticated modern plane like this which has two engines for redundancy in case one fails, feeds BOTH engines through a single FOHE.

    The whole idea of introducing redundancy includes running each engine absolutely separately including seperate fuel tanks and of course separate lines, pumps and of course separate Fuel Oil Heat Exchangers.

  • Wow

  • Probably Vista crashed :/

  • @MyBrilliantChannel LMAO! I had vista, upgraded to Windows 7, and now I have a OSX Lion. :D

  • An outstanding example of how a very vital rule used by soaring pilots saying that raising the flaps would reduce drag and therefore increase glide ratio, combined with an exceptional quote saying "whatever is left, however improbable, must be the cause" can make the difference in saving the day and and solving the mystery. Reminds me of another memorable quote that has them both in the same phrase: "if flying were the language of men, soaring would be its poetry". My respect for capt. Burkill.

  • Amazing episode

  • dont hav any bypass valve in FOHE of this engine, if the strainer clogs? and the both engine shuts same time is miracle........the pilots are great and inspired
