Jumbo Crash in Brussels - 747 splits in half - aftermath

[Flies2FLL]

Captain's name:  Bob Andre

[Flies2FLL]

The "captain" of this 747, the best in the Kalitta fleet due to the -7R engines....aborted takeoff TWELVE FUCKING KNOTS above V1 speed!

Hello?

Idiot. And he's a homophobe too. Well, today he works as a Wal-Mart greeter; Frankly, I think that the management of Wal-Mart needs to vet their employees a bit more carefully~

[crispiegee1]

Airbus is better than Boeing?? Bahahahahaha!!! Airbus can't even get its pitot tubes right, let alone the rest of their planes. It can't get the M400 delivered on time or within budget and they have to bribe government officials to buy their planes. The A340 is behind schedule, overweight and overpriced. Pathetic.

[Cenathon123]

a little duct tape can fix the problem

[hagst27]

If it's not Boeing it's not going to break apart under the sole force of gravity.

Seul un Boeing est capable de se disloquer sous la seule force de la gravité.

[ecocotier]

buy Airbus, it is better ! Achetez Airbus, ce sont des avions plus fiables

[marshalllucky]

I hope they heve glu these plaine back together before it is fly again , just think if it is snap in mid of the aire ;-(

[spikeboy326]

im black

[vindaloo9]

many people shit their pants that day

[photoguybrian]

This freighter airline is owned by the famous drag racer Connie Kalitta who lost his son Scott in a racing accident a few years ago. He owns about 7 747 freighters as well as a fleet of smaller charter planes.

[DOUGIE1979]

pork links always copy.

[ThePepeleme]

chinese much cheaper..fuckıng capıtalist u.s

[alphakid42]

Can only imagine the G-force required to split a 747 fuselage into pieces like a twig. We are talking bone-breaking force here.

[Bluesbrothe]

Thumbs up if you see it splits in three parts.

[starbreez3]

@Bluesbrothe You suck.

[lugeman221]

how does that even happen?

[kentoldhoj]

The most amazing thing is they managed to fix the aircraft and its back in duty.

[jafershabnam1]

i know this was in brussel and the place where this plane crash it velige name is stenokerzel . on this moment i was in the volley ball staduim and i saw this plane sinds its come down . u r lukky wlaur that u have now ur dad live it was very difical to say but on this moment ooooooooffffff realy i was scaerd .

[elequentum]

made in usa = no quality

[howardgreenwood]

@elequentum They went to the moon didn't they?

[Tundraboy05]

@elequentum made in where you're from = 0.01 cent pieces of crap

[djomercohen]

planes should start carrying top roof parachutes... this is how a plane that lost anything whatsoever will be saved...

[kentoldhoj]

@djomercohen Planes should be made from the same material as the black box. The content of the black box allways survives.

[xXCrimsonVirtueXx]

@kentoldhoj The material for the black box is much too heavy and intricate for the whole plane. And it's a combination of materials that makes it so strong, so there wouldn't be as many chambers in the wings.

[ecarrace100]

Made in Russia

[PIECE2YOURMOTHA]

Lucky it's just freight craft and nobody got hurt.

[an9elboy]

It's only a cargo plane, people.

[James1toknow]

Half off frequent flier ???

[tastibasti]

don't choose cheap airlines...

[daniel223543]

Looks like the crew survived. Lucky they didn't tansport explosives!

[seaprt]

Kalitta air is a budget american cargo/ charter flight company. They buy old decomissioned planes from the airlines dispose of at rock bottom prices. I believe they're flying one of the original 747s.

[Sabre1677]

@dimka171 no, that plane was a smaller Boeing, I think. It definitely wasn't a 747. Also, it would be pretty hard to do this in mid air, unless the pilot deliberately tried to flip or loop the plane.

I think the official investigation cited ice building up over the air speed indicators, and all the computer functions failed. That is 'the best guess they could do without finding the black boxes

RIP those on board :(

[Dave54600]

747 isn't a brand.  It's a style of plane.

[BlurKingApple]

They were lucky not to have that thing snap in mid air...

[fantastichouse]

tupolev

[bonzensau]

It´s a Boeing 747-200F from 1980. First owner was China Airlines.

[Funfisique]

American quality at its highest..

LOL

[tmutazz]

@Funfisique Yeah but not that airline! I worked with their aircraft and if there is a corner to cut they will cut it!

[emacification]

@tmutazz ...you are so full of do do!!!! Cut corners a boeing? Thats sure a dumb ass statement I shouldn't even resopnde!

[tmutazz]

@emacification Not Boeing, Kaletta the company operating the plane. THEY cut corners. I'm sure they received a perfectly good plane from Boeing.

[soco13466]

@Funfisique So where's your country's plane? That plane in the vid was obviously old and oversrtessed somewhere along the line. You ignore the fact that the safety record of Boeing is a good one. Think twice before denigrating American goods. You run the risk of coming off as a knee jerk America hater, who hates the country simply because you're told to, or some other hater tells you only bad things about the USA.

[styx102]

i love how people say what a piece of crap a plane is when it crashes and ISNT american made, i guess yall have never seen an american airliner or southwest airliner crash...my god

[GiuseppeYFosterp]

hmzbin total ungezogen heute wer will mit mir camn der kann sich ja melden

[skaterguitarfreak7]

thats not a 747

[ryanhaart]

It is a 747-209F

[fooksake69]

A bucket of saw dust and it will be ok!

[vtjeh]

0:13 he says andre hazes XD

[460823357]

Breaking up is hard to do.

[goerizal]

thanks for the video. this is just a small thing but the plane do not seem to look like a jumbo 747. i am probably wrong.

[tango9eco9sero0tango]

its a modified 747-400,-200 or -100. just like Air Force One

[HPG747]

The captain aborted AFTER V1 speed. It's a no-no! And then he forgot to use reverse thrust. This stupid fuck almost got himself and his crew killed.

[gentil79]

It's a cargo 747

[Zorn27]

Rosie O'donnel should never fly

[driver64]

::))) scary true!!

[DrPoon]

fail

[KPNLFC]

Why there were no cameras, filming this take-off :(

[flynabil]

Man, I was there after the crash. Very spectacular. They had a RTO and the runway 20 was toO short.

[ohyes245]

lol thats not half the only half of any plane is straight down the middile thats the only way for half-half on planes

[jstevo15]

WHAT

[KG84C]

Probably had maintenance done in China

[owenowen]

Kind of like you and your step dad inspecting your cock in a dark closet.

[SalocinTEN]

Looks like the very same plane in Mythbusters.

That episode about jet engines blowing off cars.

[mrFragaz]

sex

[ericthepilot]

If it's Boeing, I ain't going !

[bugguy905]

if it is a boeing it is going wondering how many hours and if the airline was cutting inspections and maintnance

[krispykreme82603]

what yur gonna stick to "Airbust"?

[hhhvvim]

Same time, next week Captain?

[disposedsoul]

Could you imagine if this happened in mid air!! OMG!!

[bob7399162]

that woulbd be funny.

[dimka171]

it would be the scarriest thing ever unfortunate to say i think few weeks ago it happened on an Air France flight from brazil.....................

[functionform85]

hehhe this is kinda funny

[ZX338A]

At least it didn't happen at 41,000 feet cruising at mach .87

Cruddy old -200 from the 70's.

[CatishDuck76]

Great. Just great.

[TwoEyeCyclops]

I see this planes sister at Miami International airport almost every day... she doesn't leave too much anymore..... If anyone wants pics of one in working condition let me know.

[futurevirginpilot]

The Chinese don't make 747's Boeing in the USA does

[Angerfist2]

same quality

[trap0001]

Fucking China! Them chinese can't make shit! I bet that plane was 'fabrique en China'

[tibchy144]

looks like its an early version of boeing 747 - made in the u.s.a.

[mlke4258]

In reality, they make just about everything.

[gabikharles]

@adamkeam the 747 is only assembled in seattle, washington usa. the parts are made everywhere - in usa, canada, japan, europe, australia, etc

[RaptureandZune]

@gabikharles It is actually assembled at Everett, WA. There is another plant at Renton but not in Seattle.

[gabikharles]

@RaptureandZune ok thanks for your correction

[cliffthelightning]

@adamkeam Chinese don't make... they copy

[aggressor27]

That foreign piece of shit is not a 747.

[Julstar16]

strengthen your eyes! It's a 747-200F

[chanctonbury63]

@aggressor27 What is it then?

[tastibasti]

@aggressor27 this is a 747. a freighter. an old version with orignially three windows in the upper floor...

[SHOOTINGST4Rx]

@aggressor27

Yes, its a Airbus A747 ?!

[MrFrankenstein2011]

@aggressor27 ITS A 747-200F WHICH IC A CARGO PLANE

[madisonelectronic]

The owners are going to be really pissed.

[SoccerGoalkeeper]

Thank Goodness it was a cargo plane. If it was commercial, were talking about casualties here.

[alyraver]

that is a freighter plane - no passengers

[emersondavis]

at least it was not moving!!!

[geardude56]

how did that happen?

[wellefelle]

unbekanntes flugzeuge sind immer soo!!

[jaydest88]

caraaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy!!!

[BulgarianInCanada]

whaooo,whaoo

[kristinaa011]

reason, simple: weight balance, too much freight .

[kentoldhoj]

@kristinaa011 The 747 is a durable aircraft. It will tip over before it breaks into half.

[youroom101]

Its amazing how fragile aircraft are, we think they are strong but it is made up of light weight materials, alloys, carbon fibre, and plastic. Makes you think twice about flying. As paulagloria says on 9/11 they made on hell of a hole in them steel and re-enforced concrete buildings when the plane is essentially a flying tube, this should make you rethink what happened that day.

[undertake782]

Actually, aircraft are really strong but wear and tear can easily bring anything down. No matter how hard it is. Aircraft take a lot of stress during flight. The China Airlines Boeing 747 did especially well when there was an engine failure and the aircraft made a spin and dive. It recovered and landed safely. It just depends on the circumstances.

[paulagloria]

our airplanes can totally penetrate tall buildings and come out the other side. Americans saw it on TV live!

/watch?v=M5-xcvv_fRQ

[Julstar16]

thanks a lot for all the infos!!! Have a nice eve!

[azintp]

European aviation technology.

[wimpie25]

Excuse me, its a boeing. American aviation technology. It flew under the command of the American Military Organisation.

[undertake782]

What are you implying here?

[wimpie25]

WTF, I never wrote that comment. I can't even fly...

[Superchad245]

sounds like your account may have been hacked then.

[result321]

Any plane parts found in SHANKSVILLE ?

Think of it .....

[kranski7]

No. No plane parts at shanksville. It was staged.

[choidj]

Wow, ... , ... There's something you don't see everyday...

[wlaur]

My Dad was one of the crew member onboard this plane. I haven't had a chance to speak to him yet because it's currently 4 am in Brussuls atm. My mom just called me with the news. Apparently they are all OK. Ill post more coments as soon as I find out what happend.

[Julstar16]

please do that!!

[291006291005]

american and made in america are always suck

[jeffrhen]

Whenever the world is in trouble, they always call 911 in America!

[cityraildude]

Or 000 in Australia!!!

[flynabil]

THAT'S GOOD ONE, LOL!!!

[celtno1]

just seen this on the news! how on earth did that happen? the news never mentioned how it happened.

[streetstream]

Maybe because they don't know yet. The only thing they know is that the crew heard 2 loud bangs and aborted take-off.
