Rejected Take Off (Engine Fire) - TAP A321

[thomsonfly645k]

does that continuous chime for the Master Warning cover any others apart from Fire and Overspeed.

Boeing has a separate warning for fire alarms and for Master Warning alarms

[unpracticalrunway]

it never happens so clearly, and the systems never work so perfectly in a real catastrophic situation, this is why they still happen, the sims are too ""easy"" :)

[377580]

I'd like to see you there, and perform so easily as you talk!

[unpracticalrunway]

@377580 I am nor a pilot nor an airline manager nor a trainer, I don't have the responsibility to keep everyone alive without ever failing

[bajesus666]

that would be boring flying with them....soo monotone

[Muslim2888]

check

[ARKIEX]

This evacuation procedure is much easier than the B737NG

[Rayden440]

0:47 "Stop, retard..." lol

[cartuner555]

@Rayden440 It means to retard the engines, like to remove power

[SirTimidFly]

Excellent Training Material!!

++++++++++++++

[harold562]

O.o shouldn't both pilot, and copilot have a hand on the throttle?!?!

[AzziejEnzo]

@harold562 depends on the condition. On perfect flying conditions there is no need. Example: When a waterplane (one that takes off from water) takes off then yes, because waves can cause the hand of the pilot to slip off the throttle. Then two hands, captain and co-pilot, need to be on the throttle so this minimizes that risk.

[RontoTheDog]

@harold562 No..

[4fifty8]

shouldn't the critical items be confirmed first by the other pilot before being activated? such as engine shut off and fire bottles?

[SRakash]

i want a sim. like this @home 

[tman1gtsi]

neutral position? lol how cute. anyways that video was epic although it wasent in a real airplane. its very clear and understandable what they are saying. its hard to find a actual airplane inflight engine supression procedure on the net. awesome thanks for posting it =))))))))))))0

[dtiydr]

Oh yes now i remember, thanks!

[dtiydr]

Those weels in the center at the bottom of the console that moves at 2:00 what are those?

[AviationHD1]

@dtiydr Trim wheels

[erjohnson227]

@dtiydr those are the trim wheels, they are turned to help maintain level flight while allowing the yoke to be in the neutral position.

[guilhermerrrr]

why the co-pilot wast time turning off the warning sign?? 

[JARMOPOWER]

@guilhermerrrr How is it wasting time? It's part of the procedure.

[planeboy737]

@19browser83. In extreme cases that may be possible. But passing V1 means your COMMITING to the takeoff. There is no turning back.

[beergut111]

all you youtube aviation experts are fucking dumbasses.

[planeboy737]

@beergut111 Lol i would love to hear how much you know!

[beergut111]

@planeboy737 i know a lot.....been doing it for over 30 years. what would you like to know?

[planeboy737]

@beergut111. Go on explain. I never said I was an expert by the way! So I don't think I deserve to be called a 'Dumbass'

[beergut111]

@planeboy737 oh well your posts seem to imply you know what your talking about.

[oldaardvark]

What if this occurred at V-1?

[planeboy737]

@oldaardvark. If you go past V1 then you have commited to the takeoff.

SO BASICALLY

YOU

HAVE

TO

TAKE

OFF

[luna8181]

@planeboy737 No the procedure said. Brake only if:

Engine out

Plane unable to fly

[planeboy737]

@luna8181. Yup but there can be many other problems too that could cause a RTO. I.e Burst Tyre, Weather etc.

[usstaralliance]

why did they evacuate the aircraft?

[planeboy737]

@usstaralliance. Cause there was an engine fire you numpty!

[wompasdub]

I wish I had a simulator like that haha

[MusicLover11325]

@wompasdub Me too

[dcsilva10]

i hope i fly for tap one day, i am Portuguese so thats a start

[ironhorzmn]

Sounds like Chekov from 'Star Trek'.

[thermo1984]

I got to sit in a Boeing flight sim when I was a kid (exactly like this one) it was great wish I could fly one.

[oakld]

I'm not getting something, but it's probably OK. 1) They were extinguishing the engine fire after they stopped, disengaged the autobrake, put on parking brake, etc? I.e. not immediately? 2) It seems to me it took ages before they gave info to the crew about what happened, which direction they should depart the aircraft and there's no command to leave the aircraft at all? I suppose it must be correct, but any comments as to why? The seconds would be missing if fire spreads, isn't it?

[ironhorzmn]

@oakld There's a saying among professional 'operators', law enforcement and others who routinely carry a gun.

It goes, 'Slow is smooth; and smooth is fast'. Means that doing things right is more important than doing them 'fast'.

In an actual emergency I'm sure things would naturally go much faster...but still 'smoothly'.

[kdes]

@oakld: you're right, but this is just a training, in a real fire event they will move much quickly.

[joaquinnn]

@TGizm0

It is. but first you must start watching the video to realize. if the tittle say so, people can easily decide whether to link in it ot not. :)

[TGizm0]

Fair enough... but it's actually a rejected take off because of an engine fire, very well handled by TAP crew in an A321 as the title says.

I get your point and would agree with you if it was a Microsoft Flight Simulator video, but this one shows the real procedure... and of course, on the other hand, I don't think anyone would be recording this one on the real airplane if this emergency was to occur.

[joaquinnn]

@TGizm0 you´r right.

[joaquinnn]

Why dont you specify that its a simulator?

[TGizm0]

Because it's more than obvious.

[guipinsan]

the boeing's cockpit look much more pleasant and relaxing than airbus's

[flyindart]

I thought they did reached V1, but I only know english. :-] Since they stopped, they did not achieve V1 before the engine fire, but by the looks of it, they were close.

In training it's not uncommon to face an emergency just seconds prior to V1. It's among worst case scenarios, being so close to that decision speed.

[nukemelamers]

lol

its a simulator for pilot training

look at the window, its a screen,

its flickering all the time

[IJariJuniorI]

slow!

[legoslie]

pilot in training lol

[harrisKiss]

portuguese pilots speaking english xD

[marcelodelagoXD]

its a simulator man

[Jlyhhh22]

what the heck??????

[rob5654]

i can do that

[turbotimer1]

they didn't check everything

because if they did the engine would get caught on fire. they should double check

[y2k862]

do they acutally just sit there when theres a fire going? i would stop that plane and run out. fck who gives a shit its you life on the line.

[AviationNation787]

It's a simulator, there's no danger.

[CaptEm1]

First of all, it's a simulator. 2nd, pilots can't just run out like schoolgirls, they have a job to do. If there's a fire they're job is to try to put it out, secure and evacuate the aircraft.

[forces077]

can anyone tell me everything that is going on up to about 40 seconds.. what is stabalised, why do they click those buttons together, why does he announce hes taking off, whats he saying about the auto thrust.. thx

[nigelmtb]

Hi There..the 'stabilise' is when they run the engines up initially to, say, 50%. They check the engine instruments to make sure the engines are running normally before setting takeoff power. The buttons they pressed start the 'chrono' or timer, as we would call it! It shows on the Nav display, so the pilots can monitor time since takeoff...

[CaptEm1]

Stabilized means that the N1, the engines rotational compressor speed have been spooled up to about 70%, meaning full throttle forward is ready to be initiated. Auto thrust is the aircraft thrust autopilot which will control the thrust automatically. That's what they were activating together. And last, Takeoff simply means both pilots are ready for the takeoff phase of the flight. Hope that answered it for you.

[CKOI969]

simulator..no panic no stress..drink my beer..lol

[Rejectedtakeoff90]

Vodka!

[freddy04123]

It is not real it is a Simulator you can tell because the screen is blinking which means it is a video camra tapeing a computer

[dooglemcdermit]

0:36 why did he take his hand off the thrust levers!?

[federalfsx]

theres nothing wrong with that :S

[4u2024]

because he activatet the chrono

[gonzas144]

At V1 hands out of the Thrust Levers.

[bphendri]

Yeah but if they where at V1 they would not have rejected the T/O... Not even for an engine fire...

You MUST fly the aircraft..

[mrwideboy]

true,

[bphendri]

They had not yet reached V1.

[JumpStartation]

they didn't make it to V1, if they did they wouldn't be able to stop by the end of the runway.

[PerfectAdminVersion2]

fire proof button push. Haha i know they are following procedure but i find the grammer funny

[larenegUK]

I know that "Retard" means retard the throttle... but I find it pretty funny:

Pilot 1: "Engine One Fire."

Pilot 2: "STOP!"

Plane: "RETARD"

[aze4]

hahaahah xD

[CookieSplit]

lollo

[OnkelAchmet92]

its actually pretty funny!!

:D

[BlindShorty11]

its a simulator!!!look at the window

[panictactics]

Are all pilots 'units' like these assholes?

[olbi182]

its flight simulator :D

[ubluesky2007]

only inform ATC rejected take off is not enough, first officer should inform ATC about engine fire in order to help ATC require fire engine standby on ground.

[HanzPrague]

absolutely agree - they should inform ATC if engine will be still running, which engine is failed and basicaly what is the nature of the problem

[DeltaEagle7700]

Wow! These pilots know how to peform professionally. Hope they do the same when it comes to the real thing.

It's amazing the alarms are soft.

[toekneef1]

I'm sure they are a bit louder when you have them a foot away from you not 5 feet. They always sound pretty loud on CVR tapes

[DeltaEagle7700]

True. But some alarms up close, normally would blare. These alarms chime.

[rayc414a]

Like Im going to pull a checklist out why my airplane is on fire on the ground

[keniano]

lame? this is training and its used for saving lifes u fuckin retard.. respect out pilots like we respect yours.. seriously..

[MohammedBE]

well said

[praetorian2150]

all i know is that if the engines on fire i wanna be on the ground lol good training for these guys

[lockstocknl]

Then don`t watch it, you idiot

[ianchard]

"RETARD". I'd be insulted. :)

[keniano]

lol

[sealalula]

bloody hell !! look at the run way obviously it is not real , this is a place where young pilots deal with problems dumb fuck

[danbadone]

"Engine one fire push button push....push." :)

Now seriously, really great videos guys, very informative!

[NateD14]

this is a simulator

[gescoboza]

u can ask airbus

[mrivera1]

They would most likely be getting the pax out on the side of the plane that does not have the hazard, while the pilots would be going through the checklist.

[pineappleboy1]

The 'distinguisher'? LOL

[crashinflames]

OH, I don't know...jet fuel, fire, things you can't see from the cockpit. Checklists were born to keep you from forgetting important things like setting off the "distinguisher's". Informing the cabin crew, unless of course you just auger in, in that case checklist's don't do too much good.

[nathanael909]

An engine has fuel runing through it, if u combine fire and gas. what happens?

Thats why its a safety precaution

[mumisanmartin]

wow that's amazing with all the check list stuff
