@jackthayer

A "heavy" is any aircraft with an MTOW (Maximum TakeOff Weight) of 255,000lbs or more. They identify themselves in their radio call-signs as heavies, so air traffic control will know to allow more space behind them, as a heavy will stir-up air currents (via wake turbulence) much more than a non-heavy, and thus it takes more time for that air to be safe for a following airliner to pass through.

@mchalawich ...300,000 lbs = 150 tons.  Amazing the technology we have.

Not trying to be disrespectful or judgmental, but if I smelled smoke, I would be ripping panels off so I could either put a fire extinguisher on it & to access the severity of the fire.

I know by doing so you risk more smoke in the cockpit.

They may have reached the conclusion to ditch and do an emergency water landing. Which seems to be the smartest thing to have done. Provided they could have observed that the fire was burning up wiring that controlled the plane's maneuvering systems.

@bluetube231 PLEASE! This gaywad voiceovr guy is absolutely DESTROYING EVERY Mother F*****G good episode. He has NO TALENT -- NONE! Thatks for uploading these to TDPUK (you have no choice who does this I know) The guy thinks he some Orson Wells or something and he is just a fourth-rate, 2-bit, talentless, brainless, annoying piece of human trash. His clown-show ass is an audio ABOMINATION and he needs to just GO AWAY! He can talk to himself but most people think he is an asswipe, And he IS! >:-)
