At about the time when the engine integrated drive generators (IDGs) would normally come online, the flight crew saw the instrument displays flicker and heard a low-pitched, intermittent growling noise coming from the aft right side of the flight deck…… Continue Reading →
The pilots misunderstood that the runway length had been reduced during a period of runway works and started their take-off with less engine thrust and flap than were required. During the take-off they saw work vehicles in the distance on the runway and, realising something was amiss, immediately applied full engine thrust and got airborne…… Continue Reading →
After takeoff from London Heathrow Airport a vapour trail was seen streaming aft of the aircraft. The flight crew diagnosed that the aircraft was probably leaking fuel from the centre wing fuel tank. They declared an emergency and decided to jettison fuel to reduce to maximum landing weight before returning to Heathrow…. Continue Reading →
Fatigue and a color-vision deficiency that affected the ability of the pilot flying to observe glide-path-indicator lights contributed to the flight crew's failure to conduct a stabilized approach…. Continue Reading →
No documents accurately showed the B727 weight and balance. The airplane takeoff weight likely was higher and its center of gravity likely was farther forward than the values calculated by the flight crew. High-density-altitude conditions prevailed during the attempted departure from a relatively short runway…. Continue Reading →
The flight crew was conducting a Category II ILS approach in instrument meteorological conditions. The airplane pitched down after crossing the middle marker, and the autopilot disconnected. The captain increased power and pulled back the control column to arrest the sink rate. The airplane struck terrain, bounced onto the runway and then veered off the…… Continue Reading →
The airplane was near gross weight during departure from an Algerian airport. The left engine failed but the crew did not retract the landing gear. Pitch attitude for a normal all-engine initial climb was maintained, and airspeed decreased to stall speed…. Continue Reading →
On April 5, 1999, a Boeing B737-200 Adv, departed from Jakarta (Indonesia) for a multisector operation. On its third sector, the cockpit crew planned an approach on Runway 31. At 2500 ft altitude, the airfield was not in sight due to the cloud formation and local rain over the airport. The PF requested to land…… Continue Reading →
On January 14, 2002, a B737-200 tried to take-off from Syarif Kasim II, Pekanbaru, Riau (Indonesia). Feeling the AC was unable to leave the ground the flight crew aborted take-off, the AC went out of runway, hit the fences, and stopped at 240 m from the end of the runway 18…. Continue Reading →
