BREAKING United 777-300ER EMERGENCY LANDING at Sydney Airport March 11, 2024

Today, Monday, March 11, 2024, United's regularly scheduled UA830 777-300ER service from Sydney to San Francisco returned to the airport after a little under an hour of flying time. Upon arrival back into Sydney, the aircraft was met with an army of fire crew and police. On approach, the landing gear compartment doors could be seen wide open, as well as smoke coming from one of the tires on the right-hand side of the aircraft. Upon re-watching my footage, I noticed that on takeoff, the tire could already be seen smoking. It would appear that the crew didn't receive any warnings until well into the cruise, despite the issue being present at takeoff.
United has had a tough run of it lately, with all of the following incidents happening in the past week: a 777-200 bound for Osaka lost one of its wheels on takeoff, a 737max skidded off the runway in Houston, a 737-900 had flames shooting out of its engines after ingesting bubble wrap, an A320 made an emergency landing in Los Angeles after a hydraulic failure and news of a 737max landing earlier in the year at Newark with locked rudder pedals.
I hate to say it, but I wonder what will be next for UA. I get that a lot of this is out of their hands, but they are responsible for the planes they fly.

There was no fire on that aircraft - not after take off, nor on approach and landing. It suffered what looks to be a hydraulic failure, probably from a breached hydraulic line on the right main gear. The ‘smoke’ on take off was the hydraulic fluid spraying out. That’s why the gear was extended by gravity, leading to the gear doors staying open but the landing. You can see the proof of this after the aircraft had been parked for some time - a puddle of hydraulic fluid can be seen expanding on the apron from under the rear wheel area of the right bogie. The smoke coming from the gear at that time is from the hydraulic fluid coming into contact with the hot brake assembly. A single hydraulic system failure is no major issue, but they would’ve been in contact with UA engineering straight after takeoff, who then would’ve directed them to return to SYD rather than continue for another 11 hours on only two hydraulic systems.

@@davidwarren202 I can’t be sure about the B777, but I would be surprised if its ETOPS/EDTO diversion criteria was substantially different to the Airbus twins I’m familiar with. A single hydraulic system failure on its own, ie no generator failures/MELs, does not preclude ETOPS operation, irrespective of whether the ETOPS area has been entered or not. Whether it is wise to do so depends on the sector being operated. A trans-Pacific flight would best be avoided, as UA chose to do on this occasion.

God loves you so much that he sent his son Jesus Christ to die on the cross to pay the price of all our sins. After 3 days after he died,he rose up from the dead. He will accept you not matter what you been through or have done. Accept the lord Jesus Christ as you lord and savior and ask forgiveness of all your sins to be saved from sin and have eternal life and not go to hell Jesus is our only hope for salvation and the if you don’t accept him you will not heaven and you will go to hell if you don’t accept Jesus✝️

@@NewYorkAviation The smoke to me seems more like hydraulic fluid spraying out of somewhere. If you follow that logic, then you have a hydraulic leak thats depleting the center hyd system. By the time you get the "LO HYD LEVEL" warning on the EICAS, you're about 30 minutes out over the Pacific, so you have to turn around and fly back 30 minutes, so now that system is nearly empty of hydraulic fluid except for the emergency fluid in the reservoir that's there for exactly this situation. Excerpt: Landing Gear Alternate Extension The alternate landing gear extension system uses a dedicated DC hydraulic pump and trapped center hydraulic system fluid to extend the landing gear. The hot battery bus supplies power to the pump and an oversize tube from the center hydraulic system reservoir supplies fluid. The tube contains enough fluid to do an alternate extension with an empty center hydraulic system reservoir. Selecting DOWN on the ALTERNATE GEAR switch releases all door and gear uplocks. The landing gear free-fall to the down and locked position without sequencing, and do not tilt. The landing gear lever position has no effect on landing gear alternate extension. The EICAS landing gear position indication displays the expanded gear position indication when the alternate extension system is used. During alternate extension, the EICAS message GEAR DOOR is displayed because all the hydraulically powered gear doors remain open

@@NewYorkAviationI think the smoke is actually hydraulic fluid spraying out of the center hydraulic system.

@@NewYorkAviation I think the landing gear area may have had a hydraulic issue/leak which forced the crew to do a gravity gear extension which made the doors hang open as well because of the force of gravity. You can also notice the gears were not tilted at landing which also suggest a hydraulic issue.

It appears that the spoilers associated with the Center system did not deploy on landing. Also to note, while nosewheel steering is powered by Center hydraulics, it can be isolated in the event of quantity loss and thus the airplane was able to pull off the runway and taxi to park.

Looks like a line burst causing depletion of the center hydraulic system. That would cause an alternate gear extension. The smoke on lift off is probably aeration of hydraulic fluid. Smoke after landing is probably remaining hydraulic fluid dripping onto the hot brakes. The smoke dissipates as the brakes cool back down in the breeze.

@hefoxed 4 ай бұрын

It's spring break in US for a lot of folk, so there's an increased volume of flights. More flights, more potential for problems. After the door issue on Alaska (and combined with MAX horrors), anything bad Boeing related gets news. After the tire issue (which is very unusual failure and rather dramatically with it bouncing down a runway into a tesla), which is looking to be a manufacture defect and not United's fault, anything bad United gets news. The engine failure is also looking to not be United fault (bubble wrap?), the rudder issue appears to be Boeing or manufacture, runway excursion looks to be pilot err/weather/atc. Hydraulic failures aren;'t super super uncommon (based on binging atc/plane incident videos), and thus why there's multiple hydraulic systems on planes so they can land safely as it did here and Friday. These situations just usually don't get into national news, but do since got combination of United+Boeing, they do (tho the hydrlic on Friday was United but airbus, not Beoing). Important to look at this issues in context and not overly dramatize/worry .. .though the boeing door issue and negligence, that likely does deserve the drama/worry.

Clearly, it was a manual gear extension, that's why the gear doors are still open. Just looked it up and they stated it was a hydraulic leak. That would explain the gear smoking. Sometimes the anti-skid systems (or the aircraft's ABS brakes) will fail and the brakes will lock when the aircraft has low hydraulic pressure, and that's the reason for the brakes smoking. But with so many issues, back to back, if I were United I would be auditing my MX facilities big time. MX failures happen and are normal, but this many this close together is ridiculous.

@jakem7838 4 ай бұрын

Looks like the main gear steering hydraulic line ruptured. The brake systems have fuses, which close if a brake line fails. The smoke is most likely from Skydrol (aircraft hydraulic fluid) leaking on to the hot brake. Skydrol is fire resistant, just smokes ALOT when heated.

@oculusangelicus8978 4 ай бұрын

The gear doors are not withing my knowledge but the smoke coming from the wheels is one of two things, a dragging brake system, or a failed wheel bearing issue, but both create massive amounts of friction that cause the brake pads/shoes to heat and burn up inside of the assembly as well as any rubber inside as well, and can eventually cause the tire to start burning as well, and eventually fail/burst, which, if you are aware of the pressures inside of aircraft tire, can be a catastrophic event. and those firemen are taking a serious risk standing that close to a smoking tire. Since we cannot see the inside bead of the tire and its condition up against the rim.

@EdOeuna 4 ай бұрын

The gear doors not closing means the gear has been extended using the a,ternate system (gravity). This points to a hydraulic loss in the centre system. That spray seen on departure is the centre system emptying itself.

@greglawrance6086 4 ай бұрын

To be honest it looks like a failure of the hydraulic pressure line to the main truck steering actuator which is positioned at the rear of the trucks and actuates the rear two wheels for tight turns (will give a takeoff config warning if TO power applied and the bogeys aren’t lined up fully)

@tacitdionysus3220 3 ай бұрын

I used to be an airport firefighter. The risk is aligned with the axles, so they are following the correct procedure. Notice they signal the airline person not to walk close past it. They are also using an infrared camera to look for where the heat is and how much. It’s not at a level you would normally associate with a wheel fire or failure. Aircraft firefighting can be fast and massive, but there are also times for a measured response. You can be certain the four tenders are ready for immediate massive firefighting if needed. Most of this is happening after passengers are off, which will have been their main priority.
