Our flight from Melbourne in a 747 developed an engine fault and the fuel was dumped over the blue mountains, Australia before we landed in Sydney

  • as bein a pilot. thats not feul. it watet condensation on the aircraft

  • Oh my goodness! The plane departed Melbourne, Australia (MEL) for Los Angeles, USA (LAX) and we diverted to Sydney Australia (SYD) - not our intended destination. The Captain announced over the PA that we were diverting to Sydney and he also said that he MUST DUMP FUEL before we could land in Sydney. He advised us that we could see the fuel discharging from near the wing tips - this is what I filmed.

  • @TheDevynb Yeah. some pilot you are. Can't even identify a proper fuel dump.... -.-

  • I hope they land safley.

  • @TheDevynb LOL u are not a pilot its called fuel not feul and its being not bein

  • So everyday, all across Europe and America, these LOW FLYING planes are dumping their fuel? No wonder the price of gas has gone up! AND FOR ANYONE who says they are not low flying....HOW COME you can see planes making their "contrails" BELOW alto cumulus clouds(max 6,500m alt) and EVEN BELOW CUMULUS clouds(max 2,000m)? Watch the sky and YOU WILL SEE "contrails" being made BELOW these clouds i mentioned! HOW IS IT POSSIBLE? CUMULUS with planes making contrails UNDER THEM!?!?!?!?!

  • thats how clouds have been made!

  • @vietanmay911 U retarded? Your tax money doesnt go into airline fuel. Your ticket money does. They are dumping fuel so that the plane isnt heavy when it lands and pops the tires (its heavy because it was making an emergency landing).

  • why are they dumping fuel??? no wonder where my tax money go's t

  • Dude the plane is to heavy if it lands with on the runway it pop the tyres u dumb ass lol.
