    Dear friends and followers welcome back to my channel and to a frequently asked question, "Where do pilots dump fuel?" There are many rumours about this question as many passengers have the impression that pilots dump fuel just prior to landing to reduce the overall weight and therefore pay fewer airport charges. This is complete nonsense and I'm more than happy to show you where pilots dump fuel or jettison fuel, following up on the video why pilots dump fuel!
    I'll show a real-life example via an ATC recording by VASAviation. I'll go through the dumping procedure step by step regarding the ATC conversation. You'll get a better understanding on how pilots communicate with ATC. What rules and regulations apply once the fuel dumping is commenced.
    Another important question regarding fuel dumping does it harm the environment? Yes, it does, but studies have shown the changes in the atmosphere are negligible as the fuel immediately vaporizes behind the aeroplane dumping at high altitude.
    Also, see how a British Airways B777 was wanting to dump fuel over Ireland but was initially rejected by the air-traffic controller due to traffic flying below their route.
    Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this video!
    Wishing you all the best!
    Your "Captain" Joe

    Prior to my retirement from BAC, in 1998, I was one of the members of the team which supported the (then) SLI Avionics/Smiths Aerospace, (now) GE Aviation, (FQIS) 6026-2/BAC P-28 Integrated Refuel Panel. Ultrasonic transducers provide the technology which guided us away from the days of the capacitance probe - type systems.
    There are features designed into the system, which take much of the concern away from the flight crew, and assist in maintaining an adequate supply of fuel, during in-flight emergencies, by monitoring parameters set forth in the "safe landing weight" QRH docs. Additionally, the system coordinates info from the MCDU; EPR cluster, altimeter, MACH Airspeed System, and a "few other incidentals", which the ravages of time has frittered away.
    That nine-year chunk of my life, was "enriching, so-much-so, that it bordered on being addictive". Eh, I did eighteen years there, and concluded my career in aviation by contracting to NASA as part of the simulation engineering team which took on windshear, and the NASA-HSR (at NASA-Langley). During each of my two years there, my daughter accompanied me to "Take Your Daughter/Child to Work Day".
    I've seen, from the engineering side of the equation, how very much work/research/design, etc.., went into making the fuel dump procedure one of the more certain aspects of the "overweight landing scenario". Thanks, Captain Joe, for bringing this topic up for review.

      It is only complicated because they don't want you to know about it. Simple as pie, large commercial aircraft are allowed to pollute as much as they want because they are defense contractors. They have no obligation, or profit incentive to build a plane that pollutes less when they don't have to.
      It's cheaper to dump thousands of gallons of fuel than fly less passengers in a more expensive plane.

    SFO: I was on a jet that dumped fuel.
    One aborted landing, a flyby the tower to check the gear. The Captain said the nose gear light wasn't green, so we flew by the tower.
    We flew over the Pacific ocean and dumped fuel. Then landed in crash landing position. No problem, the gear was fine.
    Same trip had an earthquake while I was in the 13th floor of a hotel. One of 2 earthquakes that had me concerned. The other was 1989 Loma Prieta. Usually anything under 4.0 is amusing.

    Hi Captain Joe and thank you for your videos. I see them because I like aviation and to improve my english comprehension. I have a question: when a plane is on the cruise altitude what percentage of power engine is used? Thank you so much.

    In 1981 I lived under the glide slope for the Charleston Air Force Base. I understand condensation effects, but I remember Starlifters on final with what I'm sure was fuel coming out of the outer wing tips. Where I was, nothing ever made it to the ground. I also clearly remember hearing the howl of the hydraulics lowering the landing gear.

      The fuel jettison ports of the C-141 Starlifter are not located at the wingtips, they're located between the outer flaps and the ailerons, and you'd never be dumping fuel on final approach. You probably saw contrails created by wingtip vortices, which is most commonly associated with heavy aircraft flying slowly at low altitude (e.g. on final approach) in high humidity.

    There was a jetliner that was forced to dump fuel over Los Angeles in either 2019 or 2020 during an Emergency, but they did it at a low altitude and the fuel landed on an Elementary School, High School Sports Field, and a few other places. Some of the fuel landed on children and teachers at the Elementary School, also some fuel landed on students practicing on the sports field (if I remember correctly), and other people had the fuel rain down on them before running inside buildings and notifying authorities.
    I always thought the jets had to dump the fuel over water; like out at sea or over a large lake or a river. Thanks for clearing this up that they can dump fuel over land, but has to be over a certain altitude.

    I often happen to see two specific jets/routes dumping fuel over Melbourne. One, is a 747-400 on route to Sydney from Johannesburg at noon ish. The second one, is a 787 on its way to Perth from Auckland. Both pretty high though. I always wondered why do they dump fuel as I don’t think almost every single flight has an issue requiring them to dump. Great video, Joe.

    • @MatthijsvanDuin
      @MatthijsvanDuin Před 2 lety

      You were just seeing contrails. You will never see a plane dumping fuel if they are landing at their planned destination, since they will already have used enough fuel on route (unless they had way too much fuel on board due to some sort of egregious error, in which case the person responsible is going to be in a lot of trouble for wasting the airline's money).

      If it's a diesel it should be able to burn the Jet A1 no problem.
      Might ba a bit difficult to pull up next to a fuel dumping aircraft to fill up. And you might need a bigger tank, as they dump, on average 35 tonnes or 43 750 L per instance.
      Corolla diesels seem to be very efficient, just one dump should give you about a million kilometers!
      Good luck getting that fuel!

  • @ChrisMuellerMusic
    @ChrisMuellerMusic Před 4 lety

    Good video. Thanks Joe. One question remains, though. Are other plains not allowed to fly in the fuel dumping area because they might ignite the fuel? Or in order to give the dumping plane space? Or because of other reasons I don’t think of now? Or maybe all of that?
