I have been. We were landing during an ice storm in Mason City, IA when we were SLAMMED with a wind gust (little Saab, much smaller than the ATR). I thought I was about to die and it was oddly peaceful as I was laying flat against the window and watching the runway approach... though judging by the screams and loss of bowel control by others; it was not a shared sentiment. Our pilots were able to regain control and keep it until we were able to land safely. Incredible save by two pilots in their early 20s making 19k a year.

They needed to maintain high speed to overcome the drag of the left hand prop. And you cannot land at high speed. Also the right engine could not sustain high speed/load for very long by itself. Once that left prop had jammed in a high drag position, they we're doomed whatever they did. Maybe Gus M would have climbed out on the wing and fixed the prop with his bare hands.

I don't understand the video captions at that point, I think maybe they are wrong. It says they advanced power on the #2 (right) engine, but that also pitch decreased on that same engine, which then it says caused an immediate loss of drag from the #1 engine? Pretty sure this was supposed to say that the prop on the left, #1 engine suddenly feathered which caused the loss of drag, which would have caused the roll to the right since they were at that moment feeding in excessive right rudder input to counteract the drag that was there while also counteracting the additional left yaw component caused by high power on the right (#2) engine.

@SynthiaVan 3 жыл бұрын

@@seeingeyegod It looks like the caption has a typo (somewhere over TYPO... sorry). It was a very complex situation, one far outside the pilots' understanding at the time. I believe the records indicate that, before the right spin, the pilots had reduced #2 power in an attempt to counteract the increasing left turn and high bank angle brought on by the high-drag condition of the #1 engine, fearing a stall or inversion. I think the goal was probably just to level the plane and correct the heading, and they were holding right rudder as well. In doing so, however, their airspeed dropped further, which they had not been monitoring well during the earlier stages of the flight. After something like 20 seconds of reduced #2 power, they received a stall warning and throttled up. Possibly due to the very low airspeed/stall, the #1 prop finally feathered again and they rolled to the right. Picking up airspeed again after the spin, the #1 prop again settled into a high drag state.

@jamesupton4996 3 жыл бұрын

This was a harsh one. After the roll there was a sense that they had got things under control again, even in a damaged aircraft. And then, even with the best effort and knowledge, and all their experience, because of shoddy maintenance, it was impossible for them to control the aeroplane. The plane was working against them the whole time. It just shows how long the chain is to keep aeroplanes airworthy, and when you get on one, how many hundreds of people are involved in making your flight safe. The other scary thing is: you have no idea what is going on behind the cockpit doors, and the decisions being made to make sure the plane gets down safely. Pilots are a breed apart, when it comes to managing high risk situations.

Not to keep beating a drum like I did last week, but this is EXACTLY the reason why narration should never be included. I was in that airplane with those heroic pilots trying to save the plane and the lives of those onboard. The 360 degree roll...the hope filled recovery and the subsequent loss of control must have horrified those poor people...it felt horrible for me! If this experience was talked through, none of that would have run through me. It's the reason I watch the channel every week and why I was so upset at last week's presentation. Sorry for all that!!!

@nadsonsantos378 3 жыл бұрын

@@kennethsrensen7706 sure, I agree that nowadays pilots are dependent on the autopilot but it wasn't the case here, I just took a look at the final report and it says: the crew shut down the engine, and they were experiencing 7 times more drag than a normal single engine drag, it wasn't a normal engine failure they were suffering from a aerodynamic distress, and it's easy to handfly when everything is alright but when your plane is trying to bring you down it's another story, and they managed to take the plane out of a dive at low level, so they knew how to fly they just couldn't, one thing you learn when you studying to be a pilot is that YOU WILL FAIL, dosen't matter you're not a machine, so expect to fail, so maybe if you're seeing from a investigation point you'll have a different vision, but in the real life when you're up there, with all the emotional charges thinking about your life your family things are different, so they could have committed mistakes but it wasn't the main cause of the crash and till the end they fought to save everyone so they acted like pros

@@kennethsrensen7706 I disagree. Yes the procedure is shut down the engine and feather the prop, but part of the problem in this case was they couldn’t feather it. With the drag created by that if they had pulled back on number 2 they would have stalled out earlier. While I agree with you that all pilots are trained in simulators to handle emergency situations, there is a vast difference between a safe simulator and a “oh shit we’re gonna die moment”. Yes they lost control when the autopilot disconnected but they regained control and held it for as long as they could in the conditions they were in. This wasn’t pilot error, this was a maintenance error that pretty much doomed this flight no matter what the flight crew did. RIP the flight crew and passengers on this flight.

I was Copilot on AT-42 300 with a small Regional Airline in Brazil and I've been promoted as a Captain on E-120 Brasilia, which has had some problems with Propeller Control before, I knew that end up on lost of Control with fatal crashes, during the sim training we had some time to spare and SFI said: - free time for free practice guys, so I asked the very same failure at 15 thousand feet, my idea was to reduce the power on opposite good engine, pitch down to gain speed and control effectiveness using the Kinect Energy, my God the Aircraft bank so quick to the crippled side, and keep spinning, I wanted pitch down by 5 degrees maybe, it went to 25 degrees down...it was simulator and we lost spatial orientation, on a VMC maybe we have a chance to save the day. The SFI stopped the Sim before the crash. We finished everything and went to the hotel to Celebrate my upgrade as a Captain. I always had the idea that maybe on lucky VMC day it could be possible to make it, reducing power on the good side and using Kinect energy for the speed, sure would be a crash, being a lucky day, could be a controlled crash, unfortunately the training costs are high and Training Managers don't want us to play anything out of book. I knew about this sad crash, but few details, These pilots made a great job, would they have been trained to keep the speed, to set the flaps and go for a controlled crash the outcome would be different. Almost 30 years have gone, Covid19 took away my job, and life goes on. RIP Crew and Passengers.

A slow airspeed (caused by the increased drag from failed propeller) creates control reversion where you must point the nose for airspeed, while using ailerons for roll only steepens the roll in wrong direction. Rudder is what’s required to keep the nose straight. The brief pause was due to added energy (speed) from the inverted dive, then back to the original issue. If you can’t keep it in the air, at least keep it in a straight line and find someplace “soft” to crash. Condolences to all for this tragedy.
