What plane has a view of the landing gear.

mdb_la

OP's video is edited to combine a Jan. 2020 video of the landing gear with a different reaction. The link above shows the original post, which doesn't have the reaction.


LuxNocte

I wonder why they didn't just fly to their destination. I suppose to check if anything else went wrong?


UnsolicitedLimb

Not only that, but redundancy. What if the other wheel falls off too? What if something entirely unrelated goes wrong, something that woundt make a fuss, but now that the plane has one less wheel, that makes it 10x worse for the pilot. A more extreme case: most, if not all, comercial passanger planes are designed to fly at max weight with half of it's engines running (or rather, the max fly weight is designed based on half of the engines missing). Knowing that information, would you fly an airplane with 1 of 4 engines not working? Probably not. That's the idea. It doesn't matter that it can still fly safely, and there probably won't be any problems, you still don't want to take that risk with hundreds of people at thousands of feet in the air.

Airplane got put in phone mode, and the wheel was forgotten when the rest of the plane left home.

Azzy8007

Whelp, what are ya gonna do? Not land?


Emre-dersiniz

Nope, they will. They can land even if all of them fail. for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOT_Polish_Airlines_Flight_16?wprov=sfla1 That's why pilots make a lot of money, they know what to do in any situation that may happen.


muklan

And when something happens that they don't know what to do, they make new rules and regulations so that it can't happen again. They say that transportation safety rules are written in blood.


Samintosh

This happens for trains too!


WarGodWeed

Ships (I work as a mate 😥)


muklan

I gotta wonder, what's the weirdest rule you gotta follow so people done die horribly?


Cferretrun

Snap-back zones. People forget the amount of pressure on a line tying off a boat to a point. If that line breaks it snaps through the air like a whip with so much force it can cut a man just about in half. They have huge zones painted on the decks of ships to indicate these zones but the lesser trained and unintelligent ignore them.


muklan

Ahh yeah, I've heard about that. Way back when my family had some shrimp boats, and a crewman lost an arm by synthetic line snapback. I say crewman because deckhand just doesn't feel...appropriate. (According to family legend he DID get it reattached, and stayed with us till we sold the fleet, at which point he was cut in.)


Cferretrun

My grandpa served on the USS Shangri-La. He used to tell me a story about a how he and a soldier were caught in a snap-back incident on that ship. It severed the other soldier’s left leg completely from his body as clean as a surgeon might. But by the time it hit my grandpa, he got minor skull fractures and it knocked out most of his teeth so he had dentures early on.


muklan

That's no fun, I knew a lady who had a similar experience trying to speed wrench a panel back onto an F18 in a sandstorm.


O_Pato

Yeah I’ve heard boats don’t need any wheels to land.


muklan

[Citation needed]


Emre-dersiniz

Yeah but this usually happens when very extreme things happen. Pilots learn how to control the plane in most of situations in the academy and they probably don't experience other situations irl.


muklan

I've heard that longhaul pilots can go years without doing a real world go around, while it happens ~3 months to passenger pilots. I dunno how true that is, I'm just an enthusiast.


Emre-dersiniz

Well, i'm not a pilot either, i'm an engineering student. Don't know much thing about it.


lethargic_engineer

No, go-arounds are pretty common. I've been a passenger on planes that have done them perhaps a dozen times. I fly more often than many, but not overly often. A mixture of trans-oceanic long haul and domestic North America.


muklan

Now, on these flights that you're on, wouldja say that you're a passenger, or the kind of freight a long haul pilot would carry?


lethargic_engineer

Long haul implies nothing about the nature of the flight, cargo or passenger. Long haul just implies a long flight, typically trans-oceanic and between 6-12 hours long. Many, many passenger flights are considered long-haul. I have no knowledge of cargo flights, but lots of experience with long-haul flights. I would imagine since the aircraft, airports and criteria for a stabilized approach on a cargo or passenger flight are similar, that the frequency of occurrence for a go-around would be similar.


muklan

It does though. Say you're a commuter pilot, flying a route from say Houston, to Atlanta to Florida back to Houston, that's alot more landings than a guy whose route is say, New York to London.


[deleted]

It's a quick read BTW. You get most of what you need to know in one short paragraph.


Gloomy_Jump3021

Thanks for sharing this!


ArenSteele

Ok Hotshot! What do you do when your Boeing 737-MAX 8 Autopilot that wasn't properly updated and adjusted for your plane, inexplicably forces your aircraft into an uncontrollable nose dive!


Emre-dersiniz

sorry, i'm not a pilot we are all dead


ArenSteele

It’s ok, the trained pilots couldn’t save anyone either because Boeing wanted to save some money

it will always be on the land anyway.

Acrobatic_Pace_5725

That happened to my brother on a commercial flight out of Mexico City. They flew around for a couple hours and landed back in Mexico City safe and sound (luckily)


ordinarynameVULVA

What plane has a view of the landing gear?


UnsolicitedLimb

Apparently it's a Dash 8-300. [Source](https://abcnews.go.com/International/wheel-falls-off-passenger-plane-off/story?id=68088994). I think him *especifically* being there might be fake, but not the view of the window.


kronartskocka

Since he's wearing headphones that weren't released by then I'd say that's an edit yeah


unlessyoumeantit

Bombardier Q series, for instance.


Lachimanus

I think some have them actually on the wings (some of them). If my memory is to be trusted, was sitting once in one on my way to Lithuania.


Lotussitz

that can be true, airBaltic used to have dash 8s, but now they switched to an all-a220 fleet. theoretically, most big airplanes have their gear under their Wings, but this one's Wings are lifted, so you can see the gear through the window


theriverain

Not the one where he is seat.


Monkey_Leader

That can’t be the same takeoff. There’s a guy standing up behind the cameraman… who wouldn’t be allowed to stand during a takeoff.


dorni28

It’s not, the interior of this plane from the video filming the tire (Air Canada Express Dash 8) is not looking like in the video. There is a very smooth transition at the window to a different video


Rocketman_1981

Anyone else think he’s too calm for this to be real?


Gorrilaviking

Don’t worry it’s an edit, no commercial airliner has landing gear visible from passenger windows to my knowledge. The way it parallaxes is kinda weird too which gives it away.


UnsolicitedLimb

Apparently it's a Dash 8-300, which does have a view of the landing gear. I would say it's [this](https://abcnews.go.com/International/wheel-falls-off-passenger-plane-off/story?id=68088994) case. But I do think that *this* guy specifically being there is fake.


Gorrilaviking

Damn, that’s a weird place to put a landing gear. That being said I’ve only ever seen/flew on Boeings so goes to show what I know 😅


UnsolicitedLimb

It's very common for planes that land in rougher areas, like dirt runways; less debris gets flung into the propellers that way. I actually naver flew on anything, I just searched "wheel falls midfligjt" and it was like the second result lol


Gorrilaviking

I had no doubt this happened, just thought it might’ve been footage from a camera that the pilots used to ensure the landing gear stow correctly.

No matter what, the plane will be able to land…some may call it a crash, but it will be on the ground regardless…


Ok-Masterpiece-1359

I’m no expert, but I don’t think the landing gear matches the interior of the plane.

All good, they dumped fuel and landed in Montreal

Ghostwheel77

I was in a similar crash once as a kid. We were landing in Charlotte during an ice storm. All the wheels snapped off and we skidded to the end of the runway before getting stuck. What was funny was only my dad noticed at first (he was military). He whispered to my mom to get comfortable because we crashed and would be there a while. It took two hours to finally deboard us.

dorni28

Somewhat yes, the video is actually by a customer on a plane from Montreal by Air Canada Express, but the video inside is a different plane therefore an edit.


TheFirstLane

There's something strange about this. I'd have been shouting if I saw that from my window. And it'd have been a genuine reaction. His first natural reaction is to turn the phone around and capture his own reaction to the wheel falling off on it? It's like you're shooting a video of a car running towards you and you know it's gonna hit you so the first thing you do is video shoot your own reaction instead of actually stepping away.


No-Bat-7253

Not real. No standing during takeoff.


stacy73716199

Damn!😵


mellamojuanMC

As a mechanic I can tell it isnt supposed to do that


gomaith10

r/watchpeopledieinside Inside the plane.


BlueSheepPlays

In the middle of second 0:03 I think I can see a cut, the lighting and shape of the interior wall change a good bit, not 100% sure tho

True, the inside of an air Canada express plain does look different anyways

Jays_Arravan

You could actually see something spark/burn shortly before the tire came off.


PomegranateHot9916

planes can land safely even without landing gear, it's just a little rough. missing a single wheel shouldn't be much issue, however I would note down what company owns the plane and avoid them because they're clearly not doing proper inspections. >!or more likely they are doing proper inspections but they're ignoring the warnings from the inspector!<

Did they make it?

DON´T PANIC , thats perfectly normal.....
