Last minutes of Kalitta's 747-200 N704CK (Simulated on FS9)

[mariodebontridder]

nice dude!!! well done!!! i'm a planespotter at brussels airport!!!

[olivier159]

@mariodebontridder Thanks ! I'm a plane spotter at EBBR too !

[mariodebontridder]

@olivier159 awesome!!!

[inagod]

they carry cargo Kalitta airlines,they also race top fuel dragsters,lot of history.

[717021]

a little welding and body putty, she will be back to work in no time. 

[Ay2har]

Where did you get the aircraft?

[stellarblue51]

Hell, that Hawaii 737 came apart at the seams in flight and flew perfectly well. The pilot should just have put all throttles to full and gone for it...

how do you make it turn when pushbacking

[yugiohlover001]

what flight simulator is this and where can I get it?

[olivier159]

@yugiohlover001 Hi! It's Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004.

[yugiohlover001]

@olivier159 ty

[flightTime123]

@olivier159 04'?  u should get FSX

[PapaBare100]

Usually I hate simulation videos. In this case; However, you did a wonderful job of paying tribute to a very graceful old girl.

[MrAgusrio]

two thumbs for this plane... n two thumbs for oliver159...

[elong21]

Soundtrack is from the movie "Out of Africa".

[raquiza08]

What's The Song Used For This Clip If Anyone Knows???

[olivier159]

thank you for nice comments :)

[didu52]

@olivier159 What song is this? It's awesome!

[MaedaMoonie]

@didu52

It's the theme music from the movie "Out of Africa"

[cesarparrav]

what simulator is this??

[kazmentes]

were can i get dis game?

[adonnis010983]

@kazmentes is not a game is a simulator,and you can go to pc aviator

[ChrisPCrunchy]

She died doing what she loved best. CRASHING!

[napolean34]

yes why didnt you simulate the crash....would have been better to have seen you crash the sim.. oh well

[TonyDraps]

I think simulate the crash isn't possible with a flight simulator. For those who don't know the story of this crash, the plane didn't take off. While on the runway there was an problem so the pilot abort the take off and driven of the tarmac.

For me a top video witch was very hard to make. Nice done!!!

[petrucci973]

tis was a touching video.. the 747's have big place in my heart.. i trust this aircraft due to its safety.. may this aircraft rest in peace

[ProfessorK100]

more like pieces! LOL

[laskodboy]

I'M sorry..:S NIce video

[iFlyLow49]

So, pardon me for not knowing, but was this a very special aircraft? Was it just its age that set apart her apart from other planes? From some of the comments, she must have been a well loved plane in her days.

[TESTASPEEDER]

It was a 200 series 747 (747-209F) from 1980 with the Pratt & Witney engines.

[corsairflyfan]

Where did you got the Kalitta airplane??

[jamiel66]

peaceful!

[fernousdu972]

very good !!

[actinstyle]

monumental bond music meets 'airport'.

only thing missing is a charlton heston kind of guy pilot flirtin with an airline beauty while preparing for take off..

[rumualdovit]

Joe, be a bit more creative,you start the job finishes the job, as well its,at the end you animate airplane nothing happen,because you put back the wreck,

[alienvspredator31]

Damn that plane had just come out of C check a month earlier too, all that damn work for nothing OH WELL RIP

[alienvspredator31]

Actually the real answer Nicolas since i work for Kalitta i wirll fill in the gaps, is that the pilot had the nose of the aircraft in the air when no 3 engine stalled, he heard the noise from the stall, and FREAKED OUT, he immediately slammed the nose back to the ground, bad things happen when you slam a 3/4 million pound bird into the ground, thats what destroyed the plane, not birds, or corrosion, or fatigue.

[fordlandau]

should not a 4 engine plane be able to continue take off on 3 engines..was it mainly pilot error?

[card797]

The pilot made the right decision. This is a cargo plane. Continuing the take off with a failed engine would have put the plane trying to ascend over a populated area. Stopping the plane on the ground was seemingly a better alternative.

[catfish77x]

You wrong card. Unless you lose multiple engines or feel the aircraft is incapable of flight you always continue if you lose an engine past V1, not abort the takeoff which is exactly what the pilot did after a bird strike took out one engine. If you abort past V1 you will not be able to stop in the remaining runway.  If you lose an engine after reaching V1 then you have enough thrust with your remaining three engines to continue the takeoff safely. No lives would have been put in danger.

[catfish77x]

You are wrong that is.

[TanzanianRoots]

@catfish77x Tell that to the dead concord pilots.

[catfish77x]

@TanzanianRoots The concord crash was a totally different situation. FOD caused a tire failure. The debris from the tire failure ruptured fuel tanks and severed landing gear retraction control wires. They were unable to climb or accelerate on three engines because their gear was still down (extra drag), not just the loss of thrust. Eventually they would have burned off enough fuel to accelerate if they hadn't lost a second engine on the same side and lost control due to asymmetric thrust.

[catfish77x]

@TanzanianRoots The concorde pilots were goners no matter what they did. If they had tried to keep it on the runway they would simply have died in a fireball at the end of the runway. Trust me on this. I flew and instructed on heavy multi-engine aircraft for many years in the military. I know what I'm talking about.

[TanzanianRoots]

@catfish77x Ill take your word for it with concord. But more often then not engine failures on takeoff seem to end in fireballs cause of other problems with the aircraft. So unless Im lucky enough to spot a bird getting sucked in and know whats wrong Id take my chances after V1. I rather end up looking like this plane than a fireball.

[catfish77x]

@TanzanianRoots Its probably just that you only hear about the engine failures that result in fireballs and not the engine failures after V1 that result in successful recoveries. Single engine airplanes are a different story of course. If you lose one engine on a four engine jet you still have 75% of your power, lose one engine on a twin engine jet and you still have 50% of your power, but lose one engine on a single engine airplane and your left with none!

[TanzanianRoots]

@catfish77x The V1 rule seems a bit too theoretical cause it doesnt take into account whats at the end of the runway. half the worlds runways end in water, not concrete buildings.

[catfish77x]

@TanzanianRoots I had an engine fire in one of my two engines just after passing V1 in the simulator today. I took it into the air, shut down the engine, and successfully recovered the aircraft on the remaining engine. If you are flying outside the realms of charted territory then you have essentially become a test pilot! :) Trust and follow your procedures and you'll probably live to be an old pilot. As my first IP said There are old pilots and there are bold pilots but no old bold pilots.

[catfish77x]

@TanzanianRoots The V1 is not theoretical but based on known aircraft performance and the departure procedures are based on charted and known obstacles and take them into account in the required engine out climb gradient. Take Off and Landing Data (TOLD) is based on engine out climb performance (except for single engine planes of course) and take into account the length of the runway.

[TanzanianRoots]

@catfish77x I see.

I thought it was just a fixed figure for each aircraft type.

[catfish77x]

@TanzanianRoots It depends on the airplane. Most smaller aircraft (Cesna 172s, etc) will just use a rotate speed or stall speed based on the heaviest weight a plane can takeoff at because the gross weight of the aircraft doesn't change that much and you are usually taking off with full fuel tanks. Takeoff distance usually doesn't matter that much except when it is hot and you are at high pressure altitude fields as some people have learned the hard way and paid with their lives. :(

[catfish77x]

@TanzanianRoots High performance aircraft (like fighters) usually just worry about the highest speed at which they can stop the aircraft in the remaining runway. Large heavy aircraft are a totally different story though because the gross weight of the aircraft can change a lot, depending on the fuel load (over 100% in some cases; Rotate speed can go from 135 kts to 185 kts) and their brakes just aren't designed to absorb the energy of hundreds of tons moving at speeds in excess of 170 kts!

[Hype3rshadow]

@catfish77x after reaching and past are the same thing?

[catfish77x]

@Hype3rshadow Technically I should have said you may or may not be able to stop in the remaining runway if you abort after reaching S1. It all depends if S1 was based off of refusal speed or critical engine failure speed. For all practical purpose, yes, after reaching and past are the same. TOLD data will never be that precise where 1 kt will make much of a difference because there are too many variables to consider, but you have to draw the line somewhere when making a decision.

[TESTASPEEDER]

No dude...cargo or passanger it doesn't make any difference. all 747's can take off on 3 engines. Stopping the aircraft? Yes indeed,but depending on speed and runway left. There are rules to be followed.

[TESTASPEEDER]

I don't believe you work for Kalitta because you are talking crap...biggest crap around here. The nose gear never came up,nor did the plane rotate in any way...Girls freak out when they see a spider or a mouse,pilots on the flight deck of a 747 don't. He may have made the right decision,but made multiple faults doin' it. Just ask me and I will tell you all you want to know. Including the what where and why breakup of the airframe. And ehhh...there was a birdstrike on n° 3 engine...

[Manu2455]

N704CK . RIP

[fordlandau]

what actually caused this?..,major corrosion / fatigue I am guessing ?..how did Boeing feel about this ??

[nicolas4fcb]

to give you an answer 4 months later,they found the plane had a bird strike during the take-off so it had not enough power to take -off...

[fordlandau]

I see ..thanks ...no plane could stand that treatment...rack another plus for the 747!

[Purlukio]

You were taxing to fast. But other than that, nice video!

[embpic]

Nice job. The plane you used in your video was 714CK. The plane in Brussels was 704CK. Sadly 714CK was the plane lost in Colombia several weeks later.

[datroof18]

Very well done. Sadly, I think there is a sequel for you to work on...

[JFKenji]

Well made :)
