Re: Plane Spotters Corner

Planes are not designed to land with take off weight.

This plane landed above its max landing weight. The book allows this in emergency situations but then the plane would need a heavy landing check.

It looks like the plane bounced and the 2nd impact drove the MLG thought its mounting uptown the tank above which cause fuel to pour into the engine which caused the fire.

It's a miracle that anyone survived., and goes to show the next time you flight listen to the crews safely talk. It might save your live as people panic and treat the planes seat belt like a car and try and jab at a non existent button.

Respect to the crew staying until the last seconds and in one case to long to save their passengers.
