Yepp best thing is to learn from stuff like this. Pointing fingers, shaming etc helps nobody

That's one of the reasons I subscribe and watch regularly, his explanations are very fair and constructive. And he does a great job of explaining this stuff in a manner that people without much experience or exposure to aviation nerdery can. understand, which is kinda hard to find here on YT.

I came here to say the same thing - fair and gentle assessments.

Beat me to it!

I notice he almost always mentions when he has made a similar mistake.

Imagine previous boss hearing that

Next boss will scan the internet for such records before hiring

It's years upon years of learning from failure. Some fatal, some not so much. It's actually really interesting to learn about previous incidents and crashes and how they affected how planes developed. Not even just the planes, procedures and even the airports themselves. It's also interesting to learn how in depth the investigations get to ensure they know for a fact what the real problem was as well as comforting to know that most are caused by a chain of events and not a single point of failure. Even a cargo door falling off because the hinge design was faulty and allowed it to close fully without properly engaging with the latch only became a problem after a long time because an airline with questionable procedures let too many things slip. Anywhere else would have caught it and fixed it before it ever became a problem. It also won't happen again because they have a way to detect if the door is sealed properly.

The plane probably has to be gone over with a fine-toothed comb after this, checking to make sure everything's OK to fly, especially in this case the landing gear and engines (could have sucked in debris during the pod strike). But the plane will likely go back in the air eventually.

Definitely some damage to tires or suspension id imagine....

​@@Atelierwanwan crazy how many times it's usually not even a pilot, plane, or airport problem, but a problem within the companies' management

One of these pilots observed that they torture test planes during development.

Thought the same thing 😂

I didn’t get you.. can you explain…?

Yes I was thinking that, nothing on his KZfaq videos about this.

Must be a bad month for him pod strike and losing part of the landing gear in one month😂

​@@RAXITH_playz The guy from the Captain Joe channel flies for cargolux

Humerus? You mean humorous?

​@@ranonampangom2185Humus, he has a cooking channel too.

He should be one of those trainer captains. So much experience, and so much comprehension from that experience.

you are right! we have had similar incidents based on cockpit faulty indication.

IDK what ARFF is but I was a fan of the tv show ALF back in the day and I could see ALF doing that.

@@jasonjenkins-ferris ARFF stands for aircraft rescue and firefighting. We were the ones dealing with burning jet fuel. Alf got his name from Alien Life Form. So yep, pretty much the same thing.😂😂😂

@@deadfirefighter thanks for clarifying... and glad you took the joke well lol.

This is a good point. It's a stupid thing to do under normal circumstances for the reasons Kelsey described, but it is sometimes needed either due to real damage to the nose gear (such as those A320s that kept having the nose gear turn sideways during flight several years ago) or a faulty indication that the nose gear isn't locked. When it's a real problem with the nose gear, once it does touch down, a whole lot of energy gets dissipated very quickly in a very exciting fashion. Additionally, contrary to the normal case that Kelsey was describing, getting the nose gear down when it's damaged can result in much less directional control rather than more. And, in the case of many propeller-driven planes, there is the additional concern of prop strikes if the nose gear fails. Turbofan aircraft with wing-mounted engines with low ground clearance (like the 737) also run the risk of dragging an engine pod on the ground as they skid down the runway, which makes directional control even worse, in addition to the obvious problem of damaging the engine pods and/or engines.

How did they find that out, down to the seconds?

@@ranonampangom2185 With a pretty solid pod strike, both the cockpit voice recorder and most importantly the Flight Data Recorder would have been pulled and analyzed. The instruments - airspeed indicator, angle of attack indicator, turn and slip indicator - would have shown those wind shifts very clearly.

Thank you! Enjoy the videos.

@@MohajStudio You're doing an amazing job on these videos! Keep up the great work!

@@hamsterama Thank you!

The animation is great but I think the trajectory of the plane should be opposite (it should start to steer to left (from the plane view).

@@marekvojta9648 Too bad the windsock isn't in the picture, then Kelsey could add that piece of information into the logic of the flare.

The first incident is what I was hoping Kelsey would cover a seeing Cargolux in the thumbnail! Landing gear departing a plane is always impressive.

The landinggear issue was resolved when the groundsmen and towerobservers during a flyover noticed the landinggear had fully extended despite a warning in the cockpit it wasn't. Probably either faulty sensor or indicator, so the landing proceeded without any problems, but with firetrucks on standby.

@@av_oid next week

@@Dirk-van-den-Berg still "funny" that I never heard of any incidents and then they had like 3 in such a short time span

Captain Joe?

Yeah, holding the nose off like that on an airliner is a terrible idea, except in the very rare case that it's needed due to an emergency situation. If there's a known or suspected problem with the nose gear, though, then they do this intentionally in order to minimize the chance of the nose gear collapsing and/or to minimize the damage if/when it does. For example, if you look up the video of the JetBlue A320 where the nose gear malfunctioned and the wheels deflected 90 degrees in flight, you'll see them hold it off for a long time to minimize the damage and potential loss of control when it did hit the pavement. Sometimes pilots do it just to show off, though, and that's stupid and dangerous for the reasons Kelsey described.

Sometimes they have nose gear failures and keep it off the ground as long as possible. But your idea is more plausible.

No windows on the main deck either

I'm sure you're right but I wonder why they'd do it at that airport in the middle of a busy city.

Many cargo planes do not have livery.

Hardly. The white livery in the second 747 is on a 747-200F, the freighter. Several sites mention that the white livery is primarily to save the cost of a paintjob, which adds more weight and requires more fuel. This is a so-called Eurowhite livery, you see the marking of the registration near the back door. Can't read it though.

Well, first there has to be footage of it and somebody put it on internet second. Is there?

Juan Browne did a full video of that on the @blancolirio channel.

@@gordonrichardson2972thanks I’ll go check it out

@Dirk van den Berg There is footage of the above-mentioned incident, and you can easily find it online.

He's also a working pilot and crams in these videos when he can.

Thank you! Enjoy the videos.

Braking

​@@player1GR I bet you got a chubby at the opportunity to point out something so insignificant.

@@PasleyAviationPhotography There is virtually no situation in which the difference between _breaking_ and _braking_ is "insignificant". It helps a great bunch to use the correct word :)

@@friedrichrubinstein2346 Breaking occurs when braking fails! :D

@@immrsv That's very true, haha!

the broken off landing gear actually ended up just in front of the maintenance hangar, where it would have been taken care off anyhow!

@@ipadista Maintenance Personnel "Well that will save us 20 minutes..."😂

@@hsbvt Alway an "upside".

Thank you! Enjoy the videos.

@@MohajStudio Is the static promo image for this video the actual Cargolux pod strike of that landing OR of another Cargolux pod strike OR your professional skill?

@@davidpalmer9780 It is a still from the actual pod strike video that was later upscaled and sharpened using AI. But I'm not the one who made it.

Government hardware

YES!! I remember seeing that happen at one of our bases we were at in the 90s. We were still kind of green and I asked the General..."Is that normal, sir?" "Yep, and plan on that plane being on the ground for a few days..." He was right. Blew out two tires!

@@TheoSmith249 Better than the plane becoming software after a crash.

Wonder how the B-52s do, with those extremely wide wings. But their air fields aren't average.

It actually requires a greater knowledge of your own aircraft systems to set up an autoland approach than it does to haul your machine down a manual approach. Most freight-only companies don't have a spy in the cab that'll report back to the company an unstable approach.

Although it's Cargolux home base so you would think all of the pilots are aware of it.

The runway dips in the middle. I’ve flown there for years before moving back to America

Is augmenting the rudder by replacing either the whole assembly, or making a horizontally extended rudder flap out of the question?

​@@myne00 at that point its better to design new airframe

@@myne00 they probably looked at that but given how old the plane is its not worth it

@@myne00 Yes. Besides that, it would involve way more structural changes to the engine pylons and the wings, and larger engines hanging closer to the ground pose other problems - clearance and FOD become issues. Major changes would also have to be made to the AC power and hydraulic systems since those are engine-driven systems.

@@FlightX101 She's gonna be flying for another 30 years. We're also installing a new radar and some additional comm systems.

It was me, I forgot to pump the tires up. My bad.

That happened to Stefan Drury down Under. He (SR22) was coming in to Melbourne & another plane (737?) was also on the approach so he had to maneuver and break off the approach to get out of the way. He posted a video feeling bad about the incident & the other pilot contacted him & even got on video with him to discuss how it happened. Miscommunication between the two planes & Tower i believe. But this summary was entirely off memory. I believe the video is titled "My Air Traffic Incident".

Mentour pilot! They both fly Boeing (though Mentour flies a 737) but he’s super knowledgeable and very likable.

He isnt a Capt. He is a FO

@@TheUnforgiven69 hes a Capt, in my world 🤣

@@yrunaked4 Yeah, like Captain Joe, he too is a FO. So far it’s only Mentour who’s has 4 stripes of a Captain. Anyway, as Captain Joe says being Captain is a matter of Seniority in the Company your working, not your no. of years of experience or skill. For example Joe was flying an FO for Air Berlin on an Airbus A320 for 8 years. If he reached his 10th year on company, he would be Captain. Unfortunately, Air Berlin gone bankrupt and closed down. Joe then moves to CargoLux starting back as zero years on the new Company, plus he has re-train and re-certified to fly a Boing 747 cargo, so it’ll take him a couple more years to be Captain. (Of course there are exceptions, like if many Captains retired or many more planes of the same type came in to use, the company will fast-track some experienced FO to be Captain. That’s why budget Airline like Ryanair have Captains with only a few years experience, because they lack the manpower to fly their many planes.)

@@inisipisTV thanks for the great explanation 😃

​@@TheUnforgiven69 Kelsey's captain of the 74 crew! Seriously, he said he's Cruise Relief captain so...half a real captain. 😂

Wonder if a 360 camera could be put on the bottom of the planes.

​@@JimMorksure but that wouldnt tell you if the gear was locked, only if It was down.

I was confused at first too. Thanks for the clarification.

The crowds love the work he does. And as a KZfaq binger myself, I can say his output is elite.

Thank you! Enjoy the videos.

Yeah, the main gear of transport-category jets are designed to take a significant beating.

Another video shows one off the landing gears completely detached

And such an old design, 55 or more years? Guess that guy who led the engineers knew something.

@@DK388 That was a different incident where the gear bogey broke off. That one was actually a good landing, just with a landing gear bogey that had broken on takeoff or in flight. They were not able to retract the gear due to that bogey being broken, so they returned to Luxembourg for an emergency landing. When the faulty bogey hit the ground, it broke completely off and went flying on its own. Thankfully, no one was in its path. Conveniently, the broken-off bogey ended up right in front of the Cargolux maintenance hangar. - haha

Yes.

Provided the plane spotters get good video. All these critiques go back to someone making useful video.

I was going to say...

You fool! Captain Joe is one of most outstanding pilots of the world. Do not talk badly of him.

@@damsom1431 learn to take a joke

Haha, my thoughts🫣🫡

@@mohiththiyagu6217 first, a joke must to be funny. and why make fun of Captain Joe? He does nothing to you!

Like bodycams and dashcams. I'm surprised that I can easily use my phone to text and pilots don't send and receive texts (so I'm told).

My mistake quota is excessive, but hardly anyone is affected. Sometimes the cost is too high, but my financial customs save me from eviction or other bad consequences. Still waiting to "do better".

I think he mainly flies cargo so he wouldn't have a lot to do with passengers. You never see the pilots on the plane these days anyway

Keeping the nose up on a 747 is a relic from the past, before carbon brakes were introduced. Carbon brakes deteriorate very quickly if you don't heat them up properly on landing. You get more wear on carbon brakes by keeping the nose up. This has been mentioned in various Boeing bulletins.

Where does the computer come into this? My impression is they write the limits of the plane into the software. Or is this all hand flying?

YES I want airport 75 as well. Plus turbulence, also a 748.

747!

People have requested that movie before who knows when Kelsey will get around to it. People have requested _Pushing Tin_ and it's been a couple of years and we're still waiting for that one.

Guys, HERE is The Savior YaH The Heavenly FATHER (Genesis 1) HIMSELF was Who they Crucified/Pierced for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moshe (Moses) wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"

They changed round about the time airlines stated paying millions of dollars for the aircraft, would be my guess.

That adage was from Chuck Yeager, considered as greatest pilot, as seen in the movie “The Right Stuff". Being a WW2 multiple ace pilot and the test pilot that broke the sound barrier, survival of test pilot at that time is very very very low indeed. (In WW2 the biggest casualty percentage in the war are pilots)

Those were taxpayer funded government planes, corporate owned planes are rarely experimental and need to be ready to fly ASAP without repair to remain profitable to support pilots and other employees.

What why?

@@player1GR cuz Captain Joe is a Cargolux pilot and the plane in this video is Cargolux

@@aviationgaming1564 til that Cargolux has 30 planes but only 2 pilots

Hard on the runway is actually way better than some alternatives.

Thank you! Enjoy the videos.
