Emirates Boeing 777 Fast Landing-Stop 23R Manchester

admin — Sun, 01 Jul 2012 00:23:31 +0000

An Emirates Boeing 777-300ER lands on runway 23R at Manchester Airport stopping in a very short distance.

This stands out as a fast landing/stop for the following reasons:

a) The aircraft touches down quite far up the runway.
b) All wheels touch down even later.
c) Reverse thrusters open even later.
d) The aircraft is still able to vacate the runway sooner than is usual for an aircraft of this size. They usually exit further up having touched down and activated reverse thrust much earlier.

Aircraft Registration: A6-EBF
Aircraft Type: B777-31HER
Manufacturer’s Serial Number (MSN): 536

Sleepy Air Canada Pilot thought planet Venus was an airplane

admin — Tue, 24 Apr 2012 18:44:55 +0000

The Transportation Safety Board of Canada released a report Monday about the January 2011 incident that found “sleep inertia” to blame for the co-pilot’s misjudgment.

The flight’s first officer caused the incident after waking up from a nap on the long-haul flight from Toronto to Zurich, Switzerland. His snooze was permitted under a sanctioned procedure known as “controlled rest,” which is said to improve a pilot’s alertness and performance during overnight flights. But while only supposed to sleep for 40 minutes, the first officer dozed off for 75 minutes, sending him into a presumably deep sleep.

The first officer awoke as the captain, who had been controlling the plane, noted an approaching U.S. Air Force jet 1,000 feet below. But groggy and not yet fully alert, the first officer saw a light above the plane and thought it was the Air Force aircraft descending toward them. In reality, it was the planet Venus — though that realization came only after he sent the Boeing 767 into a 400-foot nosedive. “Under the effects of sleep inertia, the first officer perceived the oncoming aircraft to be on a collision course and pushed forward on the control column,” the report notes.

Fourteen passengers and two crew members, none of whom were wearing their seatbelts despite the seatbelt sign being illuminated, were launched out of their seats and hit their heads on the ceiling. Seconds later, they were slammed to the floor as the captain pulled back on the control stick to regain altitude. Many injuries were minor, but when the flight landed safely in Zurich, seven passengers sought medical attention at local hospitals.
