I cannot even begin to imagine what would have happened if it rolled starboard. You catch a microburst that close to the ground and you are done, especially in a plane as "roll prone" as the DC-10/MD011. May they rest in peace...God himself couldn't have saved that plane. And, a remarkably clear day for NRT.
This accident cost two pilots their lives. The MD 11 does not handle like a DC 10. Pilot induced oscillations are a real problem with this plane. The people that dreamed up this conversion and certified it as airworthy ought to spend the rest of their lives in prison.
@menthol5 I agree in part...the DeathCruiser-10 was just as prone to rollover after a wing strike like that. For example, UA232 in SUX, but this a/c was doomed from the minute that burst hit it...I think the reports said at 50'? The porpoising was due more to the downburst than any reaction to it. That one would be interesting in a simulator (no, NOT FSX!). NRT is infamous for its approaches...and this was a burst during a relatively clear day.
@JamminJamieFilms I really hope you realize this was no joke and that two people lost their LIVES. It was also FedEx not BA so no one was on but the pilots. This was a sad day not to be made fun of by stupid jokes.

How about over control after the first bounce pushed the nose way up and flying pilot push controls to far forward causing the nose first impact then Left gear collapse?
Tail didn't come off, though the left wing did detatch on the second impact, which is why the aircraft subsequently inverts. Cargo plane. Two onboard. Two Fatalities. Wind shear could have been a factor. As with most of the videos of this accident, this is not the full video. The most complete vids start about 10 seconds earlier than this one and end about 10 seconds later. Aircraft was an MD-11. Unless you are certified to fly that plane, your right to rat on the pilots is revoked.
Yeah but they weren't caused by poor maintenance or some other change in policy. These two accidents were just caused by bad birds (the ones that got stuck in the engine, and the MD11)
@Thewhitewookiee what do you mean? The pilot would declared an emergency if one of the engines was not working. The accident is due to PIO because of the reduced size of the horizontal stabilizer in MD-11s. You wind gusts and it is a deadly combination. Both pilots were killed.
Since when surveillance cameras have SOUND?

I think the plane bounced, then banked left and the wing just snapped.
The landing gear didnt touch the ground, I think they lost control when the plane hit

I'll tell you what there hiding and that's everything... It's all a big cover.
I'm starting to think these are not accidents anymore.

It seems then the plane came to land very hard then the tail fell off , then it starts to flip and burst into flames.

Won't know till after the investigation, but seems like it could have been bad weather or wind shear, micro burst right at landing.
