looking at the results and damage it looks like the weak point on this plane are the part where the landing gear punctured through the wings. Perhaps boeing can work on making it stronger and use this result as safety research. THe main gear is attached to the wings which is where most of the damage seems to of occured in this impact. From viewing this we can see this an area that need improvment. if so we can make harder landings not cause wing damage in future

"It's way to early to speculate, but hey, let's spend another minute speculating!" What kind of stupid reporting is this?
FWIW, the loss of thrust was found to have been caused by icing in the fuel-oil heat exchangers blocking fuel flow. Not a Boeing issue, it's specific to the Rolls-Royce Trent engines. 777s with GE and P&W engines were unaffected. RR redesigned the heat exchanger to fix the issue, but not before another flight had identical problems with the same engines.
This plane flew over Gordon Brown's motorcade at the same time the engines lost power. The BA pilots I know all think this crash was caused by HF interference. If it was ice, how come the engines, that were being fed from fuel from different and separate tanks, lost power at the same time? I like Richard Quest but at the end he says, they will get to the cause. I would argue that this never happened, not beyond all reasonable doubt.
The likely cause – the AAIB (Air Accidents Investigation Branch) report said – was ice that had accumulated in the 777’s fuel supply: ice frozen from water that would be present in the fuel anyway.
02:11, Car = Put your foot on the gas. No rev? Get a gas can, go to the gas station. Plane at 600 FT and 2 Miles out = Throttle forward. No power? Forced to choose between altitude or airspeed. Chose airspeed? Push nose down lose altitude then crash! Chose altitude? Stall then crash!
3.The FOHE, although compliant with the applicable certification requirements, was shown to be susceptible to restriction when presented with soft ice in a high concentration, with a fuel temperature that is below −10 °C and a fuel flow above flight idle. 4.Certification requirements, with which the aircraft and engine fuel systems had to comply, did not take account of this phenomenon as the risk was unrecognised at that time.
The investigation identified the following probable causal factors that led to the fuel flow restrictions:
1.Accreted ice from within the fuel system released, causing a restriction to the engine fuel flow at the face of the FOHE, on both of the engines.
2.Ice had formed within the fuel system, from water that occurred naturally in the fuel, whilst the aircraft operated with low fuel flows over a long period and the localised fuel temperatures were in an area described as the ‘sticky range’.
" so pilots o what they do they push the levers forward" this guy is so smart he knows that a tons of airplane need power to stay airborne or they glide down hes the best accomplishment achieved retarded percentage 97%
dual engine faliures upon takeoff usually are fatal. i'm talking if both engines quit simulataneously as the wheel lift off the ground. airspeed would drop immediately and the sink rate would would be catastrophic. Although it is unlikely to happen i do feel that one day when it does it is going to be catastrophic
not true ! the auto throttle is not triangulated outside its vector coordinates so increasing in thrust manoevers would only decompansate the lift projectory and thus lead to the inevitable outcome. any pilot trained in triangular variances would come to the same conclusion.
who is this guy? and why is he trying to avoid the subject of whether the 777 could be faulty in design? she's asking a legitimate question and he says 'to go down that road....blah blah'. Sounds like he's Boeing spokesperson
it is a 777!! On 17 January 2008, British Airways Flight 38, a Boeing 777-200ER G-YMMM, flying from Beijing to London, crash-landed approximately 1,000 feet (300 m) short of London Heathrow Airport's runway 27L, and slid onto the runway's threshold. This resulted in damage to the landing gear, the wing roots, and the engines, resulting in the first hull loss of a Boeing 777. There were 136 passengers and 16 crew on board. 1 serious and 12 minor injuries were sustained. (wikipedia)
its a 777 -200 all u retards dont know what 737 looks like? @BenKnigh505
the body of the 737 is significantly smaller than the 777 and it was because the 2 rolls royce (not ge90 because people are poor these days =.=) had a dual engine roll back which caused them to lose thrust short of the runway
@TandemDawgBMG Most people in his profession seem to have no idea about most things. Sometimes I feel they remind me of poor students who read a topic very quickly before a verbal test and the teacher gives them a C grade and passes them.
@TandemDawgBMG yea you dumbass he is a reporter not a pilot. so it sounds like you are a genius if you are going to call this guy full of it. so what happend?
@MrPorsche91730 this happened in 2008 so i'm not going to bother looking up the crash but i can tell you that one of 2 things must've happened. 1. There could've been a computer failure in which the autopilot failed to work properly and the pilots tried to override by throttling up manually but forgot to turn off the autopilot so they messed up. OR 2. there could've been a communication failure between the request for throttle up (be it autopilot or manual throttle) and the engines theselves.
@TandemDawgBMG im glad im talking to someone who actually knows what they are talking about. but he is a news reporter not a pilot, give him break. there is a big difference
@ALAJOHNSTONE i don't think it was any near cold enough in London for fuel to freeze, besides, the engines never failed, they failed to respond. They were still running when the pilots tried to throttle up.
@TandemDawgBMG the AAIB noted that during flight BA038 there was a region of particularly cold air with ambient temperatures as low as -76°C in the area between the Urals and Eastern Scandinavia. It was not the temperature in London, but the residual effects of the cold temperatures on the flight to London. All fuel has a little water in it and this probably froze causing a blockage to the engines. The ice was interesting because as you know it thaws leaving no evidence for investigators....
I don't like the commentator! He's making way too much out of minor, or obvious details. And he reminds me of Archibald Leach! Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous! Made my ears hurt!
Did the captain lose his job over this. It seems odd that since this he took voluntary redundancy. I bet it wasn't really voluntary. BA are so skint they most likely forced him out after the finacial impact of losing a 777. that doesn't seem fair and i certainly would not class that as a good airline to work for.
I've seen what it looks like when they bend them to the point of breaking, and it is not surprising at all that the gear punched through the wing spar.
Doesn't he sound like a pirate from disney or looney toons?
