curtis electric props leaked oil,do to design,he flew longer than he should have,it was known that the props leaked.After this the last prototype has conventional props.
@TheM1a2d3d4y5 Fine pitch is used to get max rpm.This prop design had problems with oil leaking from the hub causing the rear prop to go into reverse pitch,there was supossed to be a stop that prevented this from happening but don't remember details if it wasn't on or not.
Hughes sued Curtis Electric and it was settled out of court.
@thresher4 Oh yeah, reverse pitch! That's what I meant. :) Thanks! I understand now. I guess if I had been in a crash like that I would might have sued someone too!
@TheM1a2d3d4y5 Aparently if he would have backed off the throddle on that side to a lower rpm it would have made the reverse pitch lessened to keep it flying,less drag.Hughes wasn't an experienced test pilot.
@thresher4 Yeah I agree, if I had been in his place I think I would have shut down the engine all together, he should have been able to make it back to Culliver City with just one.
@TheM1a2d3d4y5 The question also is what would fearthering it do?normally you would back off thrddles and see what side is faultering,feather it,slowly bring up good engine.
Well, it looks like people whipping out their phones to update their twitter status instead of helping isn't new. The only difference is that they used cameras for the newspaper.
The crash was caused by the propellers on the right engine to go into reverse mode. NO pilot could have flown that aircraft in that status No persons on the ground were injured. Sadly Both Pan Am and TWA are now defunked- Life is very short - no time for for greed. We could use a Mr. Hughes in our government today.
howard hughes could have had the best pilots in the world test fly his airplanes. instead he did it himself. he was not one of the best pilots in the world. he was lucky nobody was killed in this incident.
@Norwaymember I have it. It's awesome. It was worth the buy. I always wanted that movie, since I borrowed it from a friend. But I wanted to buy one. And I did. :)
@epicorange747 You do know that this movie is a true story and that crash did actually happen and he survived but suffered the same injuries just as he did in the movie
Is the plane still going fast but it's just in slow motion? Idk it just looked like it wasn't going that fast but shit besides that that was one of the most incredible scenes I've ever seen!
For all intents and purposes, that should've killed Howard. If the crash hadn't, the recovery process should have. Yet, he lived another 30 years after this event.
@youdude88 CINEMA HISTORY...MARTY SCORSESE YOU SCORE AGAIN.....40 years ago...there it was KUBRICK...now...he have SCORSESE....tahnk you god for send this 2 genius!....IT WAS VERY FUNNY WHAT A you WROTE HERE "TAKE NoTES MICHAEL BAY"...JAJA NICE....ALSO TO SHIA LEBOUF...THAT IDIOT SAYS" MICHAEL IS THE BEST SHOOTER IN FILM HOSTORY"...WTF???
I especially like the music that was chosen for this scene, If you are having trouble finding the same version used in the film, check out this video. > J.S Bach - Toccata And Fugue in D minor (Orchestral Version) <
The part used in this scene starts at 3:08, the whole song is 9 min long
Extraordinary movie, well directed and acted! It is one of my favorites! Howard Hughes is my favorite aviator, to bad he digressed in his later years.
Howard Hughes was very lucky to survive that, broken bones, a collasped lung, internal and external bleeding and trauma topped off with 3rd degree burns.
The plane crashed because the oil pressure dropped so low that both props in the right engine reversed. If Howard stopped the right or both engines, he may of been able to land at Beverly Hills country club
This plane didn't go into production, but a second prototype was produced
There are two props per engine because it is a fast plane, at least as far as piston engine planes of 1946. Its called countrarotating props. Of course, jet engines were born in 1945.
@SCJohnson77 Hughes also recieved money from the government to build XF-11s but he never delievered because of his crash. After that the program never recovered.
Obviously the plane engine had troubles BUT, I have read Hughes was to only fly the plane for 15 - 20 minutes, not near 2 hours. Plus he wasn't following safety procedures or training protocol. In all honesty, sad to say, his fault. Shame too.
What kind of injuries did he get in the results to the crash? It looks near fatal. The only thing I know of is a broken leg and severe burns ... what else?
@Vegna24 3rd degree burns, broke all of his ribs, shatter his leg, displaced his heart from his left cavity to his right cavity, and broke most or all the bones it his face
What was his reasoning in not wearing seat restraints whilst flying? Surely this would make the slightest aerial manoeuvring highly dangerous as he would be thrown around the cockpit? I don't understand.
@cubanangel1985 He had a crushed collar bone, multiple cracked ribs, crushed chest with collapsed left lung, shifting his heart to the right side of his chest cavity, and numerous third-degree burns.
I can't believe that people said Scorsese had lost it watching this movie . It's a very good movie with several extremely powerful scene like this one . And it's much better than the epic mess called gangs of new york or the appaling rip off which gave him the oscar . The real weakness is Becksinsale
What I didn't understand, is that these guys are smart enough to design a airplane, but on its first flight, they decide to fly it over Beverly Hills? Didn't they have test ranges back then?
The funny thing is that, even if he didn't crash and the air force still bought the plane, they'd have never had the chance to use it before it became outdated.
And the crash was caused by the contra-rotating prop suddenly rotating the other way. So nothing would have kept it from crashing :/
one question, shouldn't houghs plane had a emergency parachute ejector so he could have ejected before he crashed and saved his life from those injuries?
Geez Even home is not safe! The lady in the kitchen must've had Jedi skills to move before that engine when through the kitchen window LOL I would've just looked out of the window and probably get clobbered by that thing!
great living directors...scorsese is a great genius, i wouldnt put it past him to nail the sun in the sky. i...a great admirer of his work, thought there was NO chance he could evolve any more, that he had reached the ceiling, then he comes with shutter island. this film destroyd me. i went to see it 8 times in the first week and i m still reelling from the shock. good directors, yeh, a couple, de palma is one, not sure even of a second. good but not great ...
@sayff1 hmmm that is very interesting, i found shutter island one of his least accomplised films, i prefer some of his smaller films sometimes such as maybe mean streets and king of comedy.
although without a doubt scorsese's purely cinematic instinct is unsurpassed, and in my opinion unsurpassable, especially when it comes to his PAINFULLY beautiful imagery, for me he is much more than that. he is a whole keliedascope of thing, in his work there is great literature, great art, wonderful feel for music, and last but not least, a powerful undercurrent of religious obssession. for me he has been a great educator.
Extremely beautiful aircraft. Howard Hughes is defenetly one of the most Legendary men that ever lived...Extremely beautiful aircraft. Howard Hughes is defenetly one of the most Legendary men that ever lived...
@fre3zing I found it on another YouTube vid; type in edwin lemare and you should see a vid for edwin lemare tocatta and fugue (philharmonic organ rolls). Transcript of Lemare's recording. Right at 1:37 on that vid, you can hear the sequence.
I remember watching this movie and laughing at the crash scene. Of course, if you had directed the scene to be as swift and brief as a real crash, it would be hard to potray to the audience what it must have "felt" like.. I'm amazed he even survived the real deal. Imagine being tossed in your car at 150 mph towards the beverly hills suburb without airbags and surrounded by highly flammable liquids :p Ouch...
man I feel so bad for Hughes cause after the crash his OSD just went out of control from there and things for him started going down hill from there because of the medicine he was given in the hostptial that made his OSD worse if they had any medication for OCD at the time I think Hughes would still be alive today and I think it's a damn shame he did not live very long and that he died in 1974 if thats right and sorry if I got the facts wrong Howard Hughes is the greatest plot of all time!!!
@TheWhiteOwl23 Yes the contra rotating propellor on the starboard side leaked oil after 45 minutes due to a design flaw.They knew this but maybe forgot that issue.When it leaked out the rear prop when into reverse pitch causing drag on that side.Had he killed the engine he would have been able to control the drag and land it.Hughes wasn't a trained test pilot.
@Deancho well....he froze to death in Titanic, he got shot in the rib and died in Blood Diamond, he got shot in the head in the Departed, he poisoned himself and died in Romeo and Juliet, and he supposedly got stuck in a dream in Inception....he pretty much gets fucked up in every movie. lol but hes still a great actor
wow, that looked pretty real. i'm not a huge fan of DiCaprio, he's an ok actor, but he does a great job in this scene, it really seems like he got hurt.
If he'd shut down the starboard engine, or at least idled it to lessen the effects of the reverse-pitch oscilation, the incident couldn't have happened.
That is some scary stuff--I live about 2 miles from the Los Angeles airport, smack in the middle of the airlines' landing path! About 30 flights an hour pass right over my house, so low that I can clearly see the landing gear. I literally hold my breath for 10 seconds as each plane passes overhead.
That plane just folded right up and took a run out powder!!!

@Deancho well....he froze to death in Titanic, he got shot in the rib and died in Blood Diamond, he got shot in the head in the Departed, he poisoned himself and died in Romeo and Juliet, and he supposedly got stuck in a dream in Inception....he pretty much gets fucked up in every movie. lol but hes still a great actor

Problem with the special effects is that the plane looks like it's crashing at 20 mph.

@oncall21 No, it probably crashed at about 70 or 80mph. Effects look pretty realistic to me...

wow, that looked pretty real. i'm not a huge fan of DiCaprio, he's an ok actor, but he does a great job in this scene, it really seems like he got hurt.

If he'd shut down the starboard engine, or at least idled it to lessen the effects of the reverse-pitch oscilation, the incident couldn't have happened.

brilliant scene- perfect in every way. In my opinion Dicaprio deserved the oscar for this movie over Jamie Foxx.

That is some scary stuff--I live about 2 miles from the Los Angeles airport, smack in the middle of the airlines' landing path! About 30 flights an hour pass right over my house, so low that I can clearly see the landing gear. I literally hold my breath for 10 seconds as each plane passes overhead.
