KATASTROFA SAMOLOTU IŁ 62-M TADEUSZ KOŚCISZKO W ROKU 1987 - REPORTAŻE Z MIEJSCA KATASTROFY NAKRĘCONE W DNIU TRAGEDII I W DNIU NASTĘPNYM.

At 10:18 flight LO5055 took off from Warsaw runway 33 for a flight to New York-JFK. The aircraft headed for the GRU VOR, which it passed at FL265, climbing to FL310. Two minutes later (at 10:41) the no. 2 engine Low Pressure turbine shaft broke loose, followed by the failure of the turbine disc. Debris punctured the aft fuselage, causing a fire in the cargo hold. The elevator control system was severed and the no. 1 engine had to be shut down. The flight crew immediately started an emergency descent to 4000m. After shutting down both no. 1 and no. 2 engine the crew mistakenly thought the fire was extinguished. They had decided to land at Modlin airport, but still unaware of the fire, changed to Warsaw-Okecie runway 33 because of better rescue equipment there. The flight started a left turn for runway 33 at 11:09 at an altitude of 1450m and an airspeed of 480km/h. The crew lost control during the turn and the Il-62 crashed into a forest, 6 km from the runway at an airspeed of 465km/h and an 11deg. left bank, 12deg. nose-down.
The cause of the accident was the destruction of engine no.2 resulting in disconnection of the longitudinal control system from the control column, cabin depressurisation, damage to the electric system and fire. At the end stage of flight the fire caused the loss of the aircraft longitudinal control and the impact with the ground after 31 minutes as counted from the beginning of the emergency situation. The destruction of engine no.2 occurred without any signal from the warning/testing system. Under the circumstances the crew members were not able to stop the engine in good time, consequently an emergency situation was created on board the aircraft.

  • 3:13 jaka "uczciwa" starannosc odzyskania mienia ofiar....

  • Przepraszam, czy słowo "Trup" jest wulgarne, obraźliwe, niesmaczne? Widzimy zwał trupów to mówimy zwał trupów. Teraz to reporter by zrobił zbolałą minę i nic by nie powiedział bo to temat tabu już się zrobił. Jednak zwolenników OBŁUDNEJ POLITYCZNEJ POPRAWNOŚCI nie brakuje...

  • 1:41 "tak, tam są członkowie załogi, ten zwał trupów" - mistrzostwo świata dla reportera i pana pułkownika za pełen profesjonalizm. To chyba profesjonalizm realnego socjalizmu...

  • Mysle, ze przestane z Toba pisac, bo musialbym zejsc do piwnicy i polozyc sie tam na podlodze, zeby osiagnac twoj poziom.

  • Totally. Just a bit strange that the authorities are taking it out of the wallets and taking pictures of it, rather than cleaning up the mess and finding the real cause. Well, those were the times back then.

  • A gdzie tam na tym filmie masz wysoki las? Bo z tym Tupolewem, to wyjechal z pasa i rozbil sie o lampy i wal za lotniskiem, ale drzew to tam nie bylo.

  • Cash found in the wreck. It was going to NY after all, plenty of passengers carrying US currency.

  • Ja znam. Tu-134 na Ukrainie, jest na Youtube, nie chce mi sie szukac linka. Samolot zassal ptaka(i) do silnika zaraz po oderwaniu od pasa. Niestety nie mial wystarczajacej predkosci, a ciag jednego silnika byl za slaby aby kontynuowac wznoszenie i opadl z powrotem na pas. Nie zatrzyma sie na pasie i stanal w plomieniach. Wszyscy przezyli. Zastanow sie zanim cos napiszesz i nie obrazaj ludzi.

  • dobrze mu powiedziales, obraza Cie bez przyczyny z takiem prostakiem trzeba jechac jego metoda, lub ignorowac.
