What do you guys think happened to Malaysia Airlines 370? I'm going with pilot suicide; he locked the co-pilot out, depressurised the cabin, and let the plane fly on autopilot over the Indian ocean until fuel exhaustion.

so this is what they refer to as sudden change in cabin pressure
when I crash into a field and liquify on impact maybe I will have suffered an unexpected bodily deceleration

>depressurised the cabin
Do they even have that functionality? I would have to imagine the only way to do that other than physical sabotage is to have someone open the escape door

>I wasn't worried at all
>To me it was sweet release

Yup you can manually control pressurization from the flight deck

If I could fly like this knowing i was safe, I absolutely would. That is fucking awesome.

RIP FA though

I'm pretty sure they have to do it when they reach the ground in order to open the doors.

The killer could just slit the other pilot's throat and lock the door, nobody would know until the plane started diving.

The transponder was specifically turned off. That's what makes this so fucking spooky.

When they finally figure out what happened to this plane, it will be a HUGE deal. Titanic tier, for sure

That second big turn is around the pilot's home island of Penang. Pretty sus desu.

I like looking out the window every now and then. I get so pissed off if the person in the window seat closes the window (unless they're sleeping or the sun is shining in directly). I'm already paying for an overpriced flight on shitty seats, the experience is miserable. I just want my fucking window view.

I regularly fly from Dublin to Edinburgh ('bout an hour) and Dublin to Munich (2.5 hours-ish... longer if I'm on a shitty and often-delayed Ryanair).

I can easily spend the entire flight looking out of the window.

Was that guy trying to perform acrobatics with a B52 ?

>The investigation found that as the B-52 entered its final turn sequence around the tower, its airspeed indicator (ASI) was showing 182 knots (337 km/h; 209 mph). Although Holland increased the engine power after starting the turn, his input came too late to maintain the aircraft's airspeed, as the B-52 turbofan engines take up to eight seconds to respond to throttle commands. The ASI was available to all four aircrew members, but they allowed the aircraft's airspeed to continue decreasing. Eight seconds before impact, the airspeed had dropped to 145 knots (269 km/h; 167 mph) and the aircraft's bank angle had increased beyond 60 degrees. This was the point at which Holland or McGeehan applied full right spoiler, right rudder, and nose-up elevator; however, due to the reduction in airspeed the aircraft entered a turning flight stall (also called an "accelerated stall"), which is a stall that occurs at a higher airspeed than the design stall speed—which itself always refers to straight and level flight—because of the fact that the aircraft is turning. Due to the bank angle of at least 60 degrees, the stall speed for the aircraft at that moment was 147 knots (272 km/h; 169 mph). Hence, as it was flying 2 knots below the stall speed, the aircraft stalled, with insufficient altitude to recover before striking the ground.

so they just evaporate when they hit the ground

>On 10 March 1994, Holland commanded a single-aircraft training mission to the Yakima Bombing Range, to provide an authorized photographer an opportunity to document the aircraft as it dropped training munitions. The minimum aircraft altitude permitted for that area was 500 feet (150 m) AGL; during the mission, Holland's aircraft was filmed crossing one ridgeline about 30 feet (10 m) above the ground. Fearing for their safety, the photography crew ceased filming and took cover as Holland's aircraft again passed low over the ground, this time estimated as clearing the ridgeline by only three feet (1 m). The co-pilot on Holland's aircraft testified that he grabbed the controls to prevent Holland from flying the aircraft into the ridge while the aircraft's other two aircrew members repeatedly screamed at Holland: "Climb! Climb!" Holland responded by laughing and calling one of the crew members "a pussy".[2]
His previous flights are like an example of what not to do if you value your life expectancy.

>Upon preparing to execute the touch-and-go on Runway 23 at the end of the practice profile, the aircraft was instructed to go around because a KC-135 aircraft was on the runway, having just landed. Maintaining an altitude of about 250 feet (75 m) above ground level (AGL), Holland radioed the control tower and requested permission to execute a 360 left turn, which was immediately granted by the tower controller.

>The B-52 then began the 360 degree left turn around the tower starting from about the midfield point of the runway. Located just behind the tower was an area of restricted airspace, reportedly because of a nuclear weapons storage facility.[7] Apparently to avoid flying through the restricted airspace, Holland flew the aircraft in an extremely tight, steeply banked turn while maintaining the low, 250-foot (75 m) AGL altitude

Agreed. What is it about horrifying airline accidents and 9/11 footage that's both /comfy/ and /kino/?
youtube.com/watch?v=y9WgC4OijPA

Because flying is still the safest way to travel despite on paper sounding fucking insane (being stuffed inside a long metal tube 7 miles up in the sky hurtling along at almost 600 mph). And yet when there's an accident in aviation it's usually catastrophic because of all the extreme physics and variables involved.

It makes it both fascinating amd terrifying.

The airplane jargon made this post better than most and made my aviation tism chuckle. Have a (You).

That was literally my first yhoight watching this scene

Uh scuse me /pol/, but she was no fighter pilot. She never should have qualified for the f14 on any runway. She was pushed through because of tokenism, not a serious project to train female pilots.

I love stuff like this. Some form of morbid curiosity I guess, but there's something incredibly gripping about listening to accident radio chatter.

Here's one from the MS Estonia, who took in water by the car hangar due to a faulty construction that caused the bow shield to bend out of place by the stormy weather. The first couple of minutes is the Estonia trying to communicate with the other ships in the vicinity, they manage to get their coordinates out to the other ships 10 minutes before the ship lists so much to the side that it disappears from radar.

It was the most devastating maritime accident in recent memory, claiming 85% of its 1k passengers and crew.

Is Air France expensive? Recently I flew from Manchester to Beijing for return for £340

Were they too stupid to just take the vests off?

Fuck why is that auto "PULL UP" sound so creepy?

Each time I check for a trip Air France is on the top of the list. But the food is good they say.

Airlines generally charge the most for flights originating from or terminating from their home base. If you're searching for flights starting or ending in France, Air France will usually be the most expensive just as ANA is usually the most expensive for flights to and from Japan.

>it's a wings mysteriously detach 40 miles from where the fuselage wreck is found at such an impossible glide slope indicating something more than a simple free fall that it completely puzzles investigators episode even though the flight plan was done correctly and the passenger manifest adds up with one of us in the wreckage brother

That must explain it then. My flight was to and from Manchester return, but was with Air France and had a quick swap over in Paris CDG, I think £340 is a very good price for a return flight to Beijing from the U.K.

I didn't know. Next time I'll take a train to Bruxelles just to have cheaper AF tickets.

Why do they speak English at some parts and not Japanese?

>fly over Greenland
>look out window
>realize that even if you survived a crash there's like 1% chance of rescuers reaching you before you die of exposure

So to become a pilot you also need to go and learn a whole different language, on top of everything else?

Sure. Some crashes have been caused by pilots or ATC's with a poor grasp of english.

I find it weird that I knew what video this was going to be before I hovered over it.

Why English though? Why not just their native tongue? The only reason I can think of is because of all the many different languages that may have different interruptions, and meanings, which can make statements seem out of context.

Because a French pilot flying from Germany to Japan doesn't speak either of the language but has to communicate with controllers from both countries - you have to standardize on a language.
The way they communicate is also very standardized, to help prevent miscommunications.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviation_English

Yes, having a solid grasp of the English language is necessary to talk to ATC and get a commercial license in pretty much every part of the world. Some places will let you talk to ATC in your native tongue if ATC also speaks it but technically all communication should be done in English. However you can talk in whatever language you want to your copilot, other pilots, etc.

Why didn't Charlie pull up?

There are multitudes of reasons. If you're leaving out of Paris, and you're flying to Tokyo-Haneda, there is lower chance that your flight is going to get cancelled if you're flying Air France than if you were flying ANA. The reason is that Air France has several dozen planes in Paris at all time while ANA is only going to have one or two. If the plane that was scheduled to serve that flight has to go in for unscheduled maintenance, Air France is going to be able to find another plane to fill that route. If ANA's plane lands in Paris and their panel says a sensor is malfunctioning, that plane is grounded in Paris until they can it it repaired there, and your flight is delayed until tomorrow when ANA can send another plane from Japan.

Another reason is that airlines sell tickets in bulk to large companies with a lot of corporate travel needs at a certain price ($X per 1,000 miles of economy class travel, $Y per 1,000 miles of business class travel). Those buyers get mad if you discount your tickets too much.

So, what they do is that they can't fill up the cabin at the prices they're charging to domestic customers is they start discounting connecting flights originating from third country that makes a stop-over in their home base (i.e. can't fill up Paris-LA at the current price? start offering Italians deeply discounted Rome-Paris-LA tickets)

Kinda

That's how the hub and spoke method works with US domestic airlines. Smaller cities feed into massive hubs and from there you sort out where people really need to go whether its international or get to their major US city like JFK, LAX, MIA. It gets a little more complicated in Europe or when making international flights because they have to follow certain agreements. Like Italy isn't just going to let Air France feed Italian people into CDG International in France to get to LAX. That would hurt their own Italian flag carrier.

>not chad plow

>That accident happened when the pilot was showing off during a low fly-by of the AF base. He wanted to bank the plane hard and impress the people watching on the ground. Only the B-52 is a heavy bomber and not a fighter. The plane banked about 70 degrees, lost the vertical component of lift and ploughed into the ground. It is needless to say that everyone died. The ironic thing to this story is that the co-pilot had complained to his superiors many time about the captains "fly by the seat of the pants" style. He was nervous about flying with him. In the final few seconds before the plane dug it's own grave the co-pilot said "you really did it this time, you've killed us all". On the B-52 there are two guys who sit below the pilots who have no windows who never even knew what happened.

I think its because you're listening to the last seconds of someone's life, forever recorded for posterity. Then you're imagining the lives of the people in the plane. No idea who they are, where they were going, what they were doing, what they had planned once they landed, but they're in that plane scared shitless as to what was going on and they're about to suffer a horrific death.

Me on the left

The only realistic explanations are hijacking or pilot suicide.
It's kinda crazy there's no real time satellite telemetry, communications and voice recording in place for major planes.

I feel like I should warn you about Tiger airways, even though they are Australian, they are so bad that they deserve it. Never book with them unless you enjoy having flights cancelled for no reason.

To be honest, death at 200 Gs is pretty much instant, probably better than suffocating.

It's fucking crazy halfway through he starts getting the wings back level then basically just spikes it into the ground.

dc-10 has done more to harm commercial flight than anything else in history

They originally designed the shuttle to have a type of parachute system for the crew cabin, but it was not engineered into it because of weight.
The whole purpose of the shuttle was military, to put super-large spy satellites into orbit. Crew safety was not really much of a concern.

Proof asians can't drive.

Used to think that was amazing. Now I dislike it. Cities in general.

Strange they weren't able to land. A B-52 bomber lost its rudder and was able to land without further incident.

>Why do they speak English at some parts and not Japanese?
When contacting ATC you must use English, but if you talk to the other crew in the plane you can use your own language.

Holy shit, the rabbit hole behind her death is deep
>aim.org/publications/aim_report/1997/09b.html
>According to Navy training procedures, a flier who makes a serious error is given a "down." As few as one or two downs can result in the flier being dropped from the program, depending on the severity of the glitch and overall performance. The safety of the pilot is one concern; another is that of crew members who could be killed or injured in plane crashes.
>Despite the warnings about her "high elevation." Hultgreen got into trouble on Oct. 29, 1993, on her third familiarization flight. She came in high and hit her brakes so aggressively that she blew out both main mount tires. She was given her first down. The second came on March 22, 1994, for failure to make power corrections to correct glide slope deviations. The third came nine days later, for "making power corrections that were erratic and unpredictable," in the words of her Landing Signal Officer [LSO], the person charged with guiding her onto the flight deck.
>When the Navy announced Hultgreen's death, the mantra was that mechanical failure, not pilot error, caused the crash.
>Selective portions of Hultgreen's records were released that suggested her qualifications were above average. There were murmurs from Navy fliers that there was more to the story, sotto voce complaints which The New York Times characterized as "spurious accusations against her flight record...from disgruntled male aviators, raising questions about her flight tests." [Oct. 30, 1994]
>The Navy's deception was deliberate. At a press conference where the JAG report was issued, a reporter knowledgeable about carrier training asked Rear Adm. Jay B. Yakeley, a carrier group commander, whether Hultgreen had any downs on her record. After a long pause, he replied that she had only one, when in fact her records showed she had at least four, plus the carrier qualification glitches.

DIVERSITY!

>Just think, if the concord had remained in service then it would most likely have gotten RnD to become more efficient and less costly and possibly advanced air travel by large amounts compared to today.

Concorde SUCKED. It had numerous design flaws, its main one being the landing gear location, which was in the wing. Exploding tyres would regularly damage the wings, and would eventually doom Concorde when a big piece flew off, hit the wing so hard that it created a shockwave that burst the fuel tank and the plane crashed. Its amazing more didn't fall out of the sky.

The USSR initially copied the Concorde but realized it was a horrible design, so they clean-sheet redesigned the Tu-144 and located the landing gear in the engine nacelles, among other things.

That shit was at 90 degrees when it stalled

Gonna go with time traveling into the future. We'll see them in about 50 years.

In the olde days, the military insisted that bombers be maneuverable, and when they were testing the flying wing, they wanted the test pilot to do a loop in one. Northrop said it was a bad idea and bombers should not be doing aerobatics. They insisted, so he did it, and it crashed and the pilot died.
The generals then decided bombers should not be doing loops.

the imperial system claims another victim.

The problem is that the source for supposed performance report is this woman, and she and AIM were both financially supported by the same donor (Phyllis Scarfly) at the time. The source is not credible, and their characterization has not been corroborated by anybody else.

Holy shit what.

Nah I'm good lol

the kikes are behind it

>the ones where they send a last message to a loved one
The worst because those people for sure know they're fucked, and while they probably know their loved ones wont hear it, they still want to let them know.

Hopefully if I ever am in a plane crash, I'm at least the one flying so I know what's going on. It would be horrifying to be a passenger on a crashing flight

Don't dress like a slut then.

How do you not get fired for that?

>so remember, if the airlines dont find you fully certified to maintain planes, they should at least find you handy

the co-op he killed in the B52 tried to get him grounded over it, but he had pull with all the high rank officers. find the news story in this thread.

Jesus imagine dying on the day of your retirement.

in theory, could he have depressurized the cabin, wait for them all to die, then pressurize it again and then go rape all the women?

hey HEY

nah, you'd probably black out within the first few seconds from the rapid pressure change

The prophecy is true

pretty usre this guy wasn't retired, IIRC he was a demonstrations pilot with a bad record and got into the plane under influence of substances (or something else) that day.

Yes

Possible, since if the explosives surrounding the plutonium core were triggered, it could set off the bomb. However, those explosives all need to go off at the same time to cause the implosion, and it's unlikely that would happen in the event of a crash.

Personally I'd be more worried if the nuclear powered plane the air force built ever crashed.

no, impossible with modern nukes

the first iteration "gun" style of nuclear bombs could go off unintentionally though

wait what the fuck is the story behind this image
what is happening here

Thinking about all the flights I've been on, 95% of the people on board don't listen to the safety messages or even look unless the stewardess is hot, I can imagine there's got to have been a lot of "inflated life jacket in the cabin" deaths because normies are too braindead to pay attention.

Fuck, I'd probably unironically do this
then I dunno get out and maybe look for people

Plus people will often take their luggage and open plane exits close to a fire without thinking, both of which increase the casualty rate.

Yes. I look outside then go to sleep for an hour.
I went to Japan for the first time last year. Looking at the cars and trains going by slowly at night is extremely comfy.

Funny thing us I never get sick when flying or on a ship. But when on land I just go immediately to sleep mode because I feel sick. Must be because of the shit roads and shitty car smell. Why do people even buy those car fresheners? They smell awful.

It's interesting that the vast majority of survivors were young men simply because they were the only ones able to hold on when the ship turned on its side. Many of the survivors describe how all the women and children just flew by while they held on. Must have been fucking awful.

It's also pretty interesting that man of the survivors were drunk as fuck punching their way through.

The final report from Finnish authorities is a chilling read, especially the part with survivor testimonies. There is a story from a man whose own mother commanded her to leave her and proceed alone when she didn't have the strength to go on. Another from a man who was on a raft with some other survivors, who thought that they'll maybe make it, only to be washed away by a big wave never to be seen again.
The report I read was in Finnish but there most likely is one translated to english somewhere if you search a bit

If you understand any Swedish I though this interview was really good. The dude is so calm and explains everything in detail.
