Guest Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Plane flying from LaGuardia to Houston makes emergency landing at Newark https://abc7ny.com/plane-makes-emergency-landing-at-newark-airport/5370975/ Updated 11 minutes ago NEWARK, New Jersey (WABC) -- An airplane flying from LaGuardia Airport to Houston, Texas, made an emergency landing at Newark International Airport after the plane experienced a brake problem, the FAA confirmed. United Airlines flight 2098, an Airbus A320, landed on Runway 22L around 8:46 a.m. Saturday, and the two left main tires blew when landing. The plane also experienced "other structural damage," according to Port Authority. Passengers were deplaned via slides, according to the FAA, but the number of passengers aboard the plane is unknown. They were taken by bus to Terminal C. United spokesperson said in a statement that the plane experienced a "mechanical issue upon take-off." "Our pilots reacted quickly to ensure the safety of the aircraft and our customers," the statement read. At the time, all arrivals and departures were canceled but have since resumed, the airport tweeted. Travelers should expect delays. runway 22L remains closed until a rig can take the damaged plane away. A passenger tweeted that he was flying from LaGuardia to Houston when his plane made an emergency landing. His photo appears to show passengers evacuated from the plane. United said there were no reported injuries, but Port Authority said a few minor injuries were reported. The FAA is investigating the incident. United said it is making arraignments get customers to their final destination. Just two weeks ago, United Airlines Flight 627 partially skidded off the runway at Newark Airport, temporarily shutting down the airport. The plane also had tired issues during landing.

blues deville Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Probably no connection and I’m sure this incident was well handled but globally there are a lot of experienced pilots leaving the building. For example, age 65 retirements at AC in February had eight 777 skippers head off for the long layover. That was about 300 years of collective experience and airmanship gone for good.

moeman Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Another thought is that the removal of the MAX from fleets has the existing aircraft running harder than ever. You can only do that for so long before things start to break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st27 Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Perhaps unrelated to experience, but there seems to be an increase in general aviation accidents....a recent one in Hawaii and a couple in Alaska. A sign of the times?? fyi ... another 8 or so from AC for June (me included after 27000 hours). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st27 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Here’s another GA accident....a runway excursion? “Local officials in Addison, Texas, have confirmed that all 10 people aboard died in the crash of a King Air 350 Sunday morning. The aircraft was taking off from the airport near Dallas when it struck a hangar and caught fire. There were no people in the hangar but at least one business jet could be seen inside in photos taken from the field. Officials did not release any details about the occupants or the ownership of the aircraft by our press time. The crash caused significant impact and fire damage to the hangar. Addison city spokesman Edward Martelle told The Associated Press that the fire was put out quickly by airport firefighters. The NTSB will send an investigative team. It was the second crash of a King Air in a little more than a week. Last Saturday, a King Air 65 carrying 11 people, most of them skydivers, crashed while taking off from Dillingham Airfield on Oahu in Hawaii. Everyone died in that crash.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 SpiceJet 737 suffers runway excursion in rainy Mumbai 02 July, 2019 SOURCE: Flight Dashboard BY: Alfred Chua Singapore Another SpiceJet aircraft suffered a runway excursion, the second such incident in two days. On 1 July evening, one of the airline’s Boeing 737-800 overran the runway at Mumbai Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj airport after landing in heavy rain. The aircraft was operating flight SG6237 from Jaipur. Twitter / @JacdecNew SpiceJet says there was no injury to the passengers or crew, and that everyone was evacuated “normally”. As a result of the incident, the airport’s main runway, the 3,660m-long 09/27, had to be shut off. The airport operator tweeted that operations to restore services on 09/27 could take up to 48 hours. Mumbai airport has a second runway, 14/32, which is 2,990m in length. Twitter / @JacdecNew Data from FlightRadar24 suggest the aircraft registration is VT-SYK, a former Jet Airways Boeing 737. Images from social media indicate the aircraft travelled through mud before coming to a stop. Other pictures show oxygen masks being deployed in the aircraft cabin. SpiceJet has not responded to FlightGlobal’s request for confirmation. On 30 June, a SpiceJet De Havilland Dash 8 Q400 carrying 43 passengers and 4 crew suffered a runway excursion at Surat Airport.

Don Hudson Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 I think it's been worn down...some metal curling up at the trailing edge of both rims and no displacement or slight mound of the tar material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.O. Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Definitely right Don. That black streak on the pavement is a definite skid mark from the gear leg / brake assemblies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 India First week of monsoon In the first week of monsoon there have been six incidents in last 24hrs by Airlines in India. Five were on B737-800 and one was on Q400. SpiceJet had three runway excursions on B737-800 and one on Q400 while AI Express on B737-800 had one excursion and one tail strike.

Bobcaygeon Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Pilot inexperience is an easy cop out. AC's SFO and YHZ events involved high time crews. In June a well experienced Norseman pilot ripped the floats off the plane and almost drowned during a glassy water landing in Northern MB and an experienced DC3 driver (Ice pilots fame) put a Basler into the drink in Fort Hope. Inexperience is definitely out there but the veterans do it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deicer Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Experienced? https://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/pilot-seriously-hurt-in-emergency-landing-of-vintage-plane-in-gatineau Pilot hurt in emergency landing of vintage plane in Gatineau Jacob Hoytema Updated: July 3, 2019 A vintage war plane, believed to be a Goodyear Corsair belonging to Vintage Wings of Canada, went off the runway at the Gatineau Airport after landing and ended up in the ditch alongside the runway. One pilot was injured with non life threatening injuries. Wayne Cuddington / Postmedia Share Adjust Comment Print One of Canada’s most revered pilots was injured when his vintage aircraft was forced to make an emergency landing at Gatineau Executive Airport at about midday Wednesday. John Aitken, a veteran fighter pilot of the RCAF and former head of the test flight program for the NRC, is in the hospital following the incident. “As far as we’re being told, he’ll be recovering for a bit but he’ll be at 100 per cent at some point in the future,” said Ottawa businessman and aircraft enthusiast Michael Potter, who owns the crashed plane. Potter said Aitken has a broken rib and a broken nose. Aitken was piloting the Robert Hampton Gray Goodyear FG-1D Corsair, a craft which saw action in the Second World War and the Korean War. Aitken was in the air for about a 30-minute flight as he had planned to do, but some unknown circumstance caused the plane to go off the runway during landing, Potter said. The fire department happened to be on scene for training at the time of the crash, and Potter said firefighters were “magnificent” in rushing to Aitken’s aid. Potter said that he didn’t know the exact nature of the damage to the plane, because at the time of writing a few hours after the incident, protocol deems it too dangerous to approach the downed craft. Paul Tremblay, the chief mechanic at Vintage Wings of Canada, the historical society that keeps and showcases a number of former warplanes at the airport, said he’s sure that “we’ll definitely be able to get it going again.” But the damage is enough to keep the plane from attending the Thunder over Michigan air show in August, which had 10 of the extremely rare Corsairs lined up to attend. “It’s going to be the biggest gathering of Corsairs in years,” said Tremblay. “Maybe next year.” Aitken, who flew CF-18s with the RCAF, is a holder of the McKee Trophy, which is awarded for outstanding achievement in aviation. “He’s one of the most acclaimed pilots in Canada today,” Potter said. “He should end up in the Aviation Hall of Fame. That’s what kind of an aviator he is,” Tremblay said. With files from Norm Provencher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
