"Oh f*k oh f**k oh nononono - Tower are you seeing this airplane crash?- oh god oh no"

Pilots really have no nonsense for proper radio communication. Airforceproud95 lied to me.

Good thing this showed up in my feed as I'm waiting to board a plane. Wish me luck!

Made it. Landing was a little dicey due to high winds, but nothing scary

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah. Been stuck at LAX for the past 6 hours waiting for my second flight. The first plane we boarded here had to be brought back for maintenance to deal with a "funny noise" coming from the landing gear. Bullet dodged successfully! So far...

Why the fuck were they filming?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

People like to hang out at airport viewing areas to watch planes land, and some film them. It’s fun. I’ve done it a few of times, though admittedly I didn’t film them.

Edit: Though actually this is filmed from another aircraft, it seems. Maybe filming because of how bad the conditions were? Not sure.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 3 months ago

You're right, this does seem suspicious. It was probably all staged by that guy.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

I think I see the problem...

Sector whiteout leading the pilots to forget to flare? Unlikely but maybe?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Other theories:

  • ILS system interference due to other aircraft causing ILS to report slightly higher height than reality
  • Wind shear
[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I reckon not because they are flying visually by the time they reach the minima. I do like the theory of them not seeing the runway with it being so white with snow, but then don't they have RADALT counting down their height?

Eh, speculation feels almost conspiratorial with what little info we have. The ntsb will figure out the last time the captain farted and whether that had any effect on the crash, so I'll just wait for their report.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Haha yeah true it could be anything. Luckily because everyone lived so there will be good information

That's why You don't unbuckle the seatbelt until the pilot says so.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

I'm no air crash investigator, but I'm pretty sure someone turned off flight mode.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 3 months ago

Ugh. Yes, this. So many people unbuckle right after touchdown and struggle to keep balance when standing during taxi
