A Boeing 747 crashes into another 747 (part 2/3)

[speedfurboy]

i saw this on history channel

[everythingfromatoz01]

FAKE

[zap1]

@everythingfromatoz01 duhh guy.... its a documentry on the flight that happen many years ago... lol

[RustArtRed]

@zap1 So Fake

[ajones35]

Controller, lose your accent or find another job. Nobody can understand you, or try texting!! :P

[suzan101shrextha]

mother fucking KLM pilot is a dick head..

[trenespilot]

KLM Pilot a dog !

[patrick11192f]

Stupid Pilot from the KLM why did he was so in a hurry

[Steph1nuk1tonz]

In a hurry, and cant listen, a bet he regrets it now

[godanddevilsucks]

bajobaritonoAH

[godanddevilsucks]

bajobaritonoAH

[Cpipeman]

Holy moly

[BreezyWindx]

Why don't they get rejected for take off? Its low visibility!!!!!

[dreamify5786]

@BreezyWindx I know! Why would they want to risk their lives like that?

[maryoassyrian2007]

If the KLM didn't scrape the ground, they could of probably barely taken off, maybe.

[basketball4863]

why didnt he listen its his faults

[jackipirata]

This accident occurred on my island, tenerife, still remember the tragic loss they had

[bluetoad668]

The Pan am should have not followed the KLM.

[K0nst4nt1n96]

I like the 747 but in an airbus you would hear the traffic alert: traffic traffic traffic traffic

Descend now

[killerchamps]

what a shame... the captain is a big mess for KLM

[juicyrecordz]

dutch people dont like to listen

[MountEtna788]

the guy trying to get the airplane off the ground looked like he was going to cry.

[mullet559]

if he wanted to take off earlier he should of put the brake on then put the engines to max power and then taken the brake of so he can take of quicker

[aaronslawsonful]

i got the 100th like yay

[kenny64813536]

What the FUCK is the KLM pilot!!!!!!!

[cabrame]

@kenny64813536 The cracker ass KLM pilot is long gone now! His dick was bigger than the 747 I guess...

[TechnologyGuy14]

Damn KLM pilot... your a Fucking idiot!!!!!!!

[MsRandomWorld]

Simple BOTH PLANES STOP!

[TheMuhammed05]

i dont get this if the other747 cant see anything on the runway how can the klm can see everything on the runway how they can see thend of the runway thats impssible is it

[TheMuhammed05]

they not suppose to take off te controller suppose to tell every aircraft that the two jumbo 747 jets are on th same runway please do nottake off untill the weather is calm all aircraft should wait on there self's

[appleglory]

Vr at 135 knots? must be a light 747 lol

[GalaxyMaster99]

RIP to those who died :(

[bajobaritonoAH]

Tenerife controller...could keep planes flying around until these two beast are gone.........Tenerife airport has only one run way......how is it he allows all the plane to land...it is a CONTROLLER MISTAKE ALL THE WAY...he did not know how to handle the traffic and he put the planes in a bad possition...of course KLM share blame.....but.....let me ask...how many times do you think a pilot take off without a clearance to?....do we know what happend inside the cabine ?...do we?

[bajobaritonoAH]

in my opinion the "CONTROlLER" is to blame....how in hell you put two 747 in the same run way...in a foggy day....and then the KLM pilot......true is.....he can not take off without clearance to......but the mistake is putting two 747 facing each other in the same run way

When we fly...we do not even know...if the captian had or not clearance to take off...

he may take off without it....."breaking the law"...but he can...to be continue

[Ruzlier]

@bajobaritonoAH Umm, are you retarded? This isn't a normal size airport, it was insanely packed, and the only way he could get any one to takeoff is if the planes went on the runway, the planes where very far from eachother, but he took off anyway, blaming the controller makes u a jackass, he could be a hero, he would be, but this klm guy tried to steal the spotlight and killed hundreds

[bajobaritonoAH]

@Ruzlier Before insult..think about the facts ASSHOLE:

*tenerife airport is NOT an international airport

*it has ONLY ONE RUN AWAY

*it was a FOGGY DAY

*controller has the AUTHORITY to keep planes flying around

*He could MANAGE THE TRAFFIC in a better way

you said planes where "very far away"...YOU MUST BE A REALLY ASSHOLE...very far away for TWO JUMBO 747 in a foogy day with one run away.....

[Ruzlier]

@bajobaritonoAH Your a fucking moron brah, and you posted facts that made you look like a moron even more. "it only has one run way" and "tenefire airpot is not an international airport"

You just went full retard brah!

[aqualobster]

@Ruzlier stfu

[Ruzlier]

@aqualobster Who the fuck are you

[bajobaritonoAH]

@bajobaritonoAH U CALM DOWN NO INSULTS.....LET ME KNOW WHERE U R....TO GO AND KICK UR ASS...

EASY TO INSULT BEHIND THE WALL.....

IT IS MY OPINION....

GO TO HELL AND FUCK U

[sashacoco111]

PlaneBall! *football Buy used with planes and no ball just plane crash tackleing.

[sandyhembree]

Why was they allowed to be taking off in that weather in the first place?

[Boss1186]

Use full flaps, asshole!!!

[badgerattoadhall]

@AliciaNiorte yes it was

[AliciaNiorte]

Hola

Eres tan bella Señorita Leveron

Para Nada !

Muy Bien !

Gracias !

Then you speak English !

[OpTicsnipez97]

taths was a fucking mivie LOL!

[C16Matt]

@OpTicsnipez97 It's a reenactment of a true event.

[goodkarma33]

ATC are the police to ALL ground movement. Pan Am never should have reported "runway clear" just because ATC wanted to hear it. However, KLM was already rolling which in my view takes 100% of the blame since they were not given permission to take off from the ATC. Another interesting note, the pressure to remain in compliance with maximum hours allowed to fly per 24. There should be some exceptions when unexpected happenstance occures, say a 10% margin when schedules & mother nature clash.

[jkiang]

@goodkarma33 He didn't report "runway clear." He said "OK will report runway clear", which is simply a readback of the instruction. Reading back an instruction is what you're supposed to do. But I agree it's poor communication to blame here. I personally think since it's not a hold short clearance where you have to read back the whole thing, he should have just responded "Roger, 736" especially it's a request for reportting.

[brigrove]

@jkiang the requirement to READ BACK all instructions was brought about after a number of accidents where the pilots simply acknowledged instructions but had misunderstood them.

[jrdragster3323]

that pilot is a fucking dick hole. he should burni hell 

[sempron67]

what happened to the klm???

[alecuratolo]

That's a really sad story.Even if this is a recosrtuction,But this situation it's really happened.

[Phadf]

this mad me LOL!

[mjcuracao]

@mjcuracao A re-enactment doesn't make it fake asshole. Of course American pilots have crashed because of stupid mistakes too. As for never fly again, get over yourself, if I die in an airplane crash, such is life. Get your head out of your Douche ass and accept that an asshole Dutch pilot caused the worst aviation accident in history.

You are right, I am wrong, rest my case!

What I see in a lot of crashes, Pilots get first blame.

These where 2 birds.

Good we have computers now.

[mjcuracao]

@mjcuracao Why use all the foul language! If you want to prove I am stupid, and wrong. Why do you degrade yourself so much? I did admit Capt. van Santen took off, after second time with no vis. Gladly, now Co Pilots can overrule all Captains, when they see their Boss is making a mistake. Lets keep it at, that you are right. I am glad KLM did not fly in your Towers. That would mean an other 35 years of blame! Try to learn from this mistake! All Pilots did after!! Just not you??? Rb. Corr.?

[themike2048]

This is soooo fake!!!!! I mean come onnn!!!! If that plane really crashed into the other one then it will couse a huge explosion and who would be taping this??? An how did they download the vidio o to YouTube if they all died think about it

[MegaDeWalt1]

@themike2048

Sorry for my bad english, but you is soooooo stupid, because you don't understand that it is "reconstruction"

[4afriend7]

@MegaDeWalt1 you is? OMG your english is very BAD !!! LoL

learn how to form positive sentences with the verb TO BE !!!

Full Forms of the verb to be

I am a student.

He is a teacher.

She is a journalist.

It is a book.

We are mechanics.

You are pilots.

They are policemen. 

[MegaDeWalt1]

@4afriend7

Sorry)) It was really BAD english))))

А вообще, я бы посмотрел как ты по-русски напишешь)))

[1986bahai]

@themike2048 watch the 3rd part

[yoyoyoyoshua]

@themike2048 it was real.

[mjcuracao]

@X1REME

Hey! Why do you blame!!

Watching this video is BS!!!

Even NTSB, KLM, PanAm have still questions!

Things back then, even now still raise questions!!

Where where you in 1977??

X1REME?

So keep your talk respective, or do not talk at all!

A lot of people died, and deserve respect, not cheap language?

Think before you scream!

[mjcuracao]

This was the biggest and worst of!

This video based on, everything that went wrong that day.

Poor judgement, fatigue, poor radio communication, poor visiuals, communication, due to bad English from tower.

Bad judgement from KLM Captain for proceeding to take off, and PanAm for missing the turn, both Captains did not read the Tower correct!

I am Dutch and proud of KLM pilots", and maintanance, but still remember the PanAm Captain say,

"Ohh My God!! He is Going To Kill Us All"!!!

WRememb

[Triple20Two]

Was he actually pised

[YOUNSTER007]

american driver allways in rush,even this stupid pilot,cost ower 500 pasengers life

[teamdevoe]

runway clear ,

KLM is staring up the Flight, a Taxi Fail :S

[razor8292]

the dutch pilot could have waited . That Son Of a BITCH was responsible for the death of the 583 passengers .

[ckreuzbichler]

nooo it's the failure of the Pilot of the KLM Pilot!!

[1thusitha]

so unfortunate...

[MrEliben]

This makes me extremely sad

[toos387]

they should have been grounded anyway

[mjcuracao]

@toos387

Why do you speak anyway?

[mjcuracao]

@mjcuracao

That I see a lot of comments, short and cheap!

After watching a short video, shooting at some Pilots, because a short

video told them so!

What reminds me, is that it is very easy to manipulate the most!

It actually surprises me how simple it is.

If one can, a whole Government is comfortable to adjust, as it pleases!

Simple, clean and even low cost, long term costs not to be estimated.

I wonder what the other threats are, and could be?

[mjcuracao]

@mjcuracao

Why do you speak anyway?

THAT IS WHAT YOU ASK?

ONLY and WHY?

WHY DO YOU ASK?

TO SPEAK IS NATURAL,

Oh, you rule, who speaks?

Wow!!

Good luck in your ruling, and therefore questioning!!!

[hotelmario510]

I hear that the last thing Captain Van Zanten said before his untimely death was 'Oh shit--'

[mjcuracao]

@hotelmario510

This is a reinactment video!??

The actual transcripts CVR, ATC and Comm recordings are available.

BUT NO!! We LOVE MOVIE we love FILM!

The last voice readback WAS FROM THE PANAM!!!!

I can tell you what the Pilots said, but go look it up!

READ and investigate before you THINK you know it ALL!!

Look up the CDR, CVR, Transcripts etc!

Sick and tired of all these lazy and short cheap comments,

off all that think what happened!

[hotelmario510]

@mjcuracao :|

Those were Van Zanten's last words. Frickin' troll.

[Rexang1]

I am blaming the PAN AM pilot.The ATC ask them to go to ROAD C3 but they went to C4 .

[Classicjournals]

@Rexang1 you shouldnt really blame the PAN AM because the KLM was too im patient so he started taking off with out ATC clearance you should really blame the KLM pilot

[ResourceMovies]

@Classicjournals Its true what he said. So if the Pan Am was on C3 nothing was happend. But the KLM pilot was too impatient. So actually both their fault.

[Classicjournals]

@ResourceMovies but C3 was an impossible turn for a 747 so the PAN AM had to go to another one but the KLM pilot just took off but the KLM should have abort taking off when the tower guy says so but im not really convinced that it is both of their fault, no offence

[mjcuracao]

@Classicjournals

That was tower mistake, right?

[mjcuracao]

@Classicjournals

A lot went wrong that day, after diverting to Tenerife.

Fog, fatigue, bad comm., irritation, delay, bad judgement,

etc. etc.

Last error and call, KLM Captain, overruling Co KLM Pilot in taking off, after Co Pilot informed KLM Captain not to proceed with takeoff run!

Rules changed and Co Pilots can overrule now!

Tower and both planes had zero visuals on either!

Open eyes, experience and respect made flying safer!

Respect and knowledge is lacking here on YouTube, just blabl

[razor8292]

y the hell was the dutch pilot in such a hurry . If he had a little more patience 500 people would not have died .

[columbusmozart]

@razor8292

Watch part 1/3 which explains why.  1) Flight regulations for KLM pilots limiting the amount of time to fly, 2) Visual minimums reducing to the point of not being allowed to take off.

[Nachalnika]

stupid dessision ! anger kills and being inaccurate is the result shown here ! feel sorry awful !

[dangzard]

that shit....literally pisses me off to where i want to kill every stupid dumbass fucker in this world.

[PilotRyanProductions]

I'm sad that everyone else was killed but that fucking bastard captain got what he deserved. Taking off without ATC clearnce in full IFR with virtually no visibility in an overloaded 747 knowing another innocent 747 was in front of them. And all for his own selfish reason.

[Classicjournals]

@PilotRyanProductions you are so right! the fucking KLM pilot was to impatient so he took off without ATC clearance and killed 500 people on the other boeing 747 wich is the PAN AM all because of him and his impatience with the tower guy saying "Stand back for takeoff " he desreved to chrash and die!

[PilotRyanProductions]

@Classicjournals yeah, that guy was a dick.

[Classicjournals]

@PilotRyanProductions well said

[Nazizombies97]

so is that a real vid though?

[columbusmozart]

@Nazizombies97

Yes, because digital video technology was all the rage in the 1970s

/snark.

[Classicjournals]

@columbusmozart and because it is documentary, documeantary fimls can be real

[eddiequest4]

I don't know about anyone else, but I cannot wait for flights to be computer controled. FAR too much miscommunication, pilot error, and human emotions for me to trust my life to.

[PilotRyanProductions]

@eddiequest4 yes but technology can easly fail. What if the plane has an electrical failure and the plane loses all control?

[eddiequest4]

@PilotRyanProductions PERCENTAGES, sir. Percentages.

[PilotRyanProductions]

@eddiequest4 what do you mean percentages?

[eddiequest4]

@PilotRyanProductions I have little time to do any analysis. But I believe that if you were to count how many times these things crash, and then check the percentages of causes, you would find that many more events were caused by humans.

[columbusmozart]

@eddiequest4

And if you switch over to computers, you will probably then find the majority of crashes will be caused by computer or electrical error.

[columbusmozart]

@PilotRyanProductions

Get the pilot to take over...oops, no pilot. Too bad.

[PilotRyanProductions]

@columbusmozart yeah.....I know! If aircraft don't have a living flight crew, what happens when the fancy auto-pilot computer catches a virus?

[columbusmozart]

@eddiequest4

Um, that brings it's own unique set of problems as well. Would you like all of our car traffic computer controlled as well?

[eddiequest4]

@columbusmozart Actually - yes. We will be able to hum along at ~100mph, within inches of each other, safely. No human will ever be able to do that.

[onepackerboy]

omg is is so werd and so sad that pilot is mad for doing that!!!!

[phillip4914]

idiots

[MrIPwnYu]

Omg that Klm retarded pilot no atc clearance and "We're going" theres the full throttle nd boom.... The american flight was smart to go full throttle but a fully loaded 747? isnt that a lil bit too heavy to accel in a few seconds

[columbusmozart]

@MrIPwnYu

Yes, it is. Had the KLM NOT fueled up prior to takeoff, he might have been able to (just) clear the PAN-AM.

[Patroler2299]

Stupid pilots and the atc

[Blackaceftw]

KLM pilot fault. No ATC clearence.

[columbusmozart]

@Blackaceftw

He had ATC clearance, but not takeoff clearance.

[Pinkycc94]

UGH. i hope the dutch captain wasn't really that way, because wow, he really pisses me off.

[joshr783]

did anyone from the american flight survive?

[maryoassyrian2007]

@joshr783 61 people survived.

[columbusmozart]

@joshr783

Yes, I think 58 or so, including the pilot.

[xHowMusicShouldSound]

That asshole captain got what he deserved. I bet he is in hell now, killed 500 people because of his temper. A lesson for everyone. Rest in peace for all those poor people who died because of some idiot.

[maryoassyrian2007]

I know it's the KLM captains fault, but can't people have any respect? Yeah, he acts like he was the only one diverted, and he killed 583 people, but he;s dead!

[bulkocrew]

thats the fault of the KLM pilot not the tower. The tower didnt clear them for takeoff he just decided to go ! what an idiot !!

[asigo120]

i rided with klm once after that flight i never flew with them again cause they dont take good care of there aircraft the pilots dont know how to fly and the interior is just gross they dont even clean the inside of the plane and the stewardesses dont even care wut u say my rating klm is: 1.5/10 worst airliner ever my opinion

[xHowMusicShouldSound]

@asigo120 I flew with them once, it wasn't that bad!

[dogdays6708]

Yeah, but that Dutch would make great freinds with my dad! Although, I do agree wuth you. The pilots can't see, they're stressed,

[KimberIie]

Hey listen up it isn't the pilot's fault.

Based on the analysis of this video it's the Air traffic Control people are the one to blame instructing the both plane to take off it's should be right but confirming that the runway is clear bullshit.

[Hobu123]

@KimberIie

Nobody confirmed runway clear. The air traffic asked Pan Am to report when runway is clear, and Pan Am answered that they will report runway clear.

KLM did not have permission to take off but it did.

[columbusmozart]

@Hobu123

KLM was given only the ATC clearance, not takeoff permission.

[columbusmozart]

@KimberIie

The ATC didn't, repeat, didn't clear either plane for takeoff. ATC asked for PAN-AM to report when they cleared the runway, in order to let KTM takeoff. KTM was given its ATC clearance (which is NOT permission to take off) only, but KTM either misinterpreted it as takeoff clearance, or didn't care.

[dogdays6708]

That Dutch pilot is an idiot!

[javiroalvolante]

ATC: "PAN AM REPORT WHEN RWY CLEARED"

PAN AM: "OK, WILL REPORT WHEN RWY CLEARED"

ATC, BELIVES THAT THE RWY IS CLEARED.

the panam co pilot should put his hand up to the pilot´s hand to avoid misstakes.. that´s the procedures for taking off. if the co-pilot had his hand where it was supoused to be it wouldn´t happened.

sorry the spelling.

[m2222man]

"Will report when runway clear" how does that mean the Runway is clear???

[javiroalvolante]

i just don´t know but thanks god this fucking klm pilot is dead! I hope there are not anyone like this alive! mother fu#@

[alpergumussu]

@javiroalvolante yeah!

[alpergumussu]

@javiroalvolante but the tower said c3 instead of c4

[columbusmozart]

@alpergumussu

Actually the tower just said "the third taxiway". If he actually would have said "Charlie-4", that would have cleared things up.

[adikidikki]

HOLY SHIT

[arcsteryx]

islands of tenneriff 1977

[WackoX1337]

It's not only the fault of the KLM pilot van Zanten, there are more mistakes:

* The tower said ''runway clear'', so they thought they could go.

* The tower gives false information about which C they should take, so completing their taxing takes mutch longer.

[iphoneallthetime]

anyone know when this happend?

[TheRamboIII]

It happend in 1977 in Tenerife Island,

Los Rodeos Airport. 583 People were killed... May they Rest In Peace.

[wesseldebacker]

the tower said ''runway is cleared''

and panam must take c3 but hey take c4

because c3 was impossible for an 747

the tower must know that then this faul wasnt make

[columbusmozart]

@wesseldebacker

ATC should have identified the taxiway in question (Charlie-4) instead of simply saying "The third taxiway". Had I'd been PIC of Pan-Am I would have asked for specific instructions ("Taxiway Charlie 3 or Charlie 4?")

[obamabidenn]

thats how the koreans drive in los angeles

[mjcuracao]

@obamabidenn

You just say something!

One day you will realize,

you could have saved your energy.

For one time say or do something right!

[101dontcare]

fuc**** dumbass pilot should get his ass beat he killed hundreds os people just because he couldnt wait

[mjcuracao]

@101dontcare You are so RIGHT! He was WRONG! Your comment shows no respect, for ANY PILOT! That is WHY you will NEVER become one. Will regret YOUR words, some day like any other! The DAY you REGRET to have not been respectful, to PILOTS, PILOTS that are very serious about your SAFETY. History SHOWS, HUMANS and their MISTAKES! Therefore AVIATION has become SAFER! Because NO ONE is PERFECT. Just you! Hundreds died, a lot went wrong. YOU do NOT CARE about THEM, TENERIFE! Only YOUR ANGER!

[tryithere]

What a Dutch bag.

[mjcuracao]

@tryithere Want me to send you a list of worser mistakes of American Pilots? Reasons why the plane went down? What they did, or actually did not!? The list will be so long, you will never fly again. I never Called any American Pilot ANYTHING! I will NEVER! NON AVIATORS and NO RESPECT! Just VIDEO HUNGRY! Click and click to the next video, no reading, no real data. No clue or real interest, to what really happened. Wake up! Funny how you be fooled with FAKE! And think it is REAL! Trythat!

[tryithere]

@mjcuracao A re-enactment doesn't make it fake asshole. Of course American pilots have crashed because of stupid mistakes too. As for never fly again, get over yourself, if I die in an airplane crash, such is life. Get your head out of your Douche ass and accept that an asshole Dutch pilot caused the worst aviation accident in history.

[3214349]

wow

one pissed off pilot=hunreds of dead people

[gdm1952777]

When I took my ground school and private pilot flight training we were drilled over and over again about not pushing the weather limits. So many fatal crash statistics were from pilot error doing just that as pilots would not use good judgement for reasons just like in this video to get home ASAP. The KLM pilot though being the star pilot of their line took off without tower controll authrozation resulting in so many needless deaths including the 55 children on board of his craft. So tragic.

[mjcuracao]

@gdm1952777 Time and people before us, their mistakes. Gave us the opportunity to adjust and learn. To be safer, not to make the same mistakes! This video is far from the transcrips. But Film and Video is like the Bible in the World now! They believe everything they see!! The CVR and Tower communications. Why are children used to accent tragedy? Do not tell us about needless DEATHS!! We can EDUCATE you on YOUR needless DEATHS! Respect and Admire the US but regret their killing attitude!

[licmy3balls]

the klm pilot obviously had pussy on his mind. perhaps one of those useless flight attendants could have prevented this whole bloody mess.

[rukor]

This is how a pissed off pilot wil kill more than 500 people... :(

[95Barqs1]

Dumbass pilot.

[08otso08]

stupid pilot

[m1ghtymo1]

unes dos tres LOL

[Amtrak1194]

C3 was not a 45 dg turn it was more like 10 but any way did anyone notice how the KLM pilot tried to go verticle and dragged his tail? that was cool

[qazxsw21000]

if he hadn't dragged his tail, he would've took off a tad sooner.

[columbusmozart]

@qazxsw21000

He dragged his tail because he foolishly took on extra fuel.

[qazxsw21000]

@columbusmozart Yea, but dragging the tail slowed acceleration a little.
