Engine Fire before V1, CONTINUE! - BV1504

- 4 kts before V1 the right engine exploded. The F/O was flying. The Captain elected to continue the take-off and, after completing the emergency actions, the fire was still uncontained. There was no possibility to dump fuel, of course, so the Captain took the controls and landed the aircraft 42 tons over the max landing weight. They took off from runway 16R but the Captain decided to land on 34L because the fire was in the right engine and the wind from the west would have kept it away from the cabin. The final speed was 179Kts, flaps 19. After the aircraft stopped, of course, most of the tires deflated. The 273 pax were evacuated with no injuries and the airplane suffered no damages, apart from the right engine.
The enquiry established that the blast and fire occurred because of a leaking high-pressure fuel hose. Apparently, over 700 kgs of fuel had leaked into the nacelle during taxi. It ignited during take-off.

They had a HUGE runway, luckily..
Very good video

I do not understand. We train constantly to reject the takeoff when anything goes wrong before V1. He had three entire seconds to abort. What the hell?
You systematically decide to continue for ever increasing malfunctions as you approach V1. You don't abort for "anything" before V1. Light twins get into trouble trying to continue, heavy transports get into big trouble trying to abort. Boeing made a great video about the go/no-go decision. The narrator is my former USAF chief pilot. It's a long video but very informative. Check it out if you like. Cheers czcams.com/video/KlpJTGAv2Oc/video.html
@@gerardmoran9560 He had a damn fire warning! That’s not worth aborting? Anyway, I sure would have. Thanks for the link.
@@jerrypolverino6025 I'm not passing judgement. The video is worth watching. An engine fire warning with thrust output is different than an engine fire warning with a loss of thrust. Captain Bill (Boeing Captain) was Major Bill (USAF). He's a great guy and the video is very illuminating. I had an engine fire at about 400' climbing out in a C-141 and did a teardrop turn for a wrong way overweight landing at Navy Sigonella in Sicily. Worked out fine and it was a fuel harness leak. Real fire but the engine kept turning until I pulled the handle. As the video explains you may be better off having the full runway and CFR on the ready. Again, not second guessing but it's rarely cut and dried. Let me know your thoughts after you watch the Boeing assessment.
@@jerrypolverino6025 the fire warning was annunciated at -3. The time to look across, read and understand what the failure is would eat much if that 3 seconds. I’m amazed someone claiming to be a pilot doesn’t get that.
@@peteconrad2077 It takes roughy 1/10 of a second to react. That’s why we were trained to immediately reject a takeoff for any warning before V1. I am amazed you think a pilot would wait for three full seconds with a red fire warning and a bell before rejecting a takeoff.
Watch this on 1.25x speed. The default speed is soooo slowwww

The FDM replay shows quite a carnage in professional terms: captain hastily throttling back the engine at 200 ft AGL, engine shutdown by 500ft AGL, the FO likely not in a position to effectively monitor the captain's actions at such a low height and straying way off course due to the thrust asymmetry, the captain talking on the PA while handflying, high bank angle during the turn, absolutely erratic pitch, altitude and speed control... Not a great example but a happy outcome. It could have been worse, not because of the fire but because of a potential loss of control or because of an unstable approach, not to mention the chance of shutting down the wrong engine at low height... Some posts indicate the captain was ex military and former member Frecce tricolori but that doesn't justify this s....t show. In a prof check, that's a fail.
