Hey buddy…we understand….for sure….GREAT CATCH.
I was on this flight. We were halfway down the runway and getting up to speed when we heard loud bang and felt a shudder and braked hard. There wasn't much runway left when we finally stopped, fully loaded and four hours of fuel. When we stopped the captain said the firetrucks were coming only out of an abundance of caution, but from row 30 we could see flames. (Not the actual fire, but the orange flickering reflecting on the shiny metal engine.) And then the smoke when the truck put it out. Initially supposed to taxi back, but we ended up getting deplaned on the runway and bused to the terminal. We could see all the tire debris on the way back. Both tires on the right side shredded and burned, the other two were flat. I'm very appreciative the pilot kept it under control and it didn't blow out any later in the take off.
I'm not quite sure why so many people are upset about Captain Steve's commentary and footage. His concern was justified considering the seriousness of the situation. Most CZcams videos of disasters that I've seen involved someone screaming "Oh my God" into the phone over and over and some blurry footage, half of it of a shoelace. To those that wonder why he's yelling at someone that can't hear him, have obviously never driven a car. And he wasn't expecting trucks to magically appear. Although the camera pointed at the plane, he can turn his head and see when the trucks roll out, which should have been 90 seconds after the tire blew at about 7: 47. At 7:50 we had already stopped, the pilot made an announcement of what had happened, then I took the first photo. At 7:54 the truck I could see out my window turned the water on. At 9: 12 am we had gotten off the plane and were boarding the bus. We were on a replacement flight with connecting flights rebooked by 12:30 but there was a lot of confusion in between. At one point in the terminal an announcement was made that if we hadn't already rebooked we'd be back on the same plane after the tires had been changed!
@@heathercaballero5473 thanks.
Hi Heather! Sydney Spencer here with CBS National News. I hope you're doing ok in the aftermath. If you're open, we'd be interested in speaking with you over zoom about what you experienced on the flight.

To any airline pilots watching this, please know how much we appreciate your skill in handling emergencies like this.
Well said true professionals 👍👍👍
Yes. Sadly most passengers care more about how many USB plugs are at their seat vs how much investment the airline has made into preventative maintenance, pilot training, etc. And the airlines know it and base their advertising on such dumb trifles. I personally care more about competency. That's the airline I'll fly on if given a choice.
Absolutely agree 💯
Dont be naive. Most all crashes are pilot error, and many because they have no idea how to handle the emergency they are faced with at that moment in time.
@@Mach141when was the last time you flew a commercial plane?
Choosing to keep the plane on the ground when not much runway was left was a life-saving decision by the pilot.
They will have been below V1. Above V1 they would taken the aircraft into the air and most likely come back for a safe landing after burning off fuel
@@davidkavanagh189 yes but they could not retract the gear then, otherwise they face a wheel well fire also.
@@Lou_Carpenter The gear can be left down if a problem is suspected. One way or the other, if you're past V1, you take the problem into the air unless it's obvious the plane will not fly. That's pretty much written in stone.
@@Lou_Carpenter The tyre catching fire was most likely due to the humongous amount of heat generated in braking - all commercial aircraft types have to pass a test where they do a max-load high-speed abort with maximum breaking which causes all the safety valves in the tyres to go. Plane has to sit whilst the brakes heat transfers to the tyres for five minutes to simulate time it would take for fire-fighters to reach aircraft
czcams.com/video/_g6UswiRCF0/video.html
The spoilers went up 3 seconds after the blowout. That's some rapid decision making right there, yesirie!
Yep good observation 👍
Unfortunately wrong decision.
With a burst tire you keep going.
Left engine (and presumably the right also) in reverse sometime behind the roofline. They were on top of it and decisively aborted.
@@tmymzr you reject for a loss of directional control you dolt
Yep, the spoiled the chance for us to see a full engine, gear up take off.
The commentator was more dramatic than the blown tires 😂
I got a little over excited 😜
It was pretty overblown…..
I agree and in a way that completely contradicts the implication of being an experienced aviation professional.

As a retired AA aircraft mechanic I’m so glad it didn’t get any worse than this. Something we all dead on our planes is a fire.

They can see from the back windows.

Wild video. They were hauling too they had to almost be to V1. Looks like it blew around W5 so they still had half of the runway to stop. Good job by the pilots keeping the aircraft under control and getting it off of the runway.
Terrible job of airport emergency response! Typical Florida.

It looked bad and it definitely gets your attention, the fire was the residual tire burning, they left most of it on the runway. This very scenario has to be demonstrated during certification. They have to do a max gross weight rejected takeoff at V1 and then a maximum energy stop. Thetires usually do catch fire. They then have to sustain the fire for 5 minutes before allowing fire crews to put it out. The crash crews have 2 minutes to arrive on scene. This used to be much more common than it is today, tires are much better. Crew did a good job! Check out one of the reject t/o videos. Impressive.
Too bad he probably won't acknowledge your comment (an informed one at that) since you didn't congratulate him for the video, being the "expert" on the scene plane watcher. ATC and Crews train and drill for these exact situations so everything you see there happened the way it should happen, nothing to panic about...
Correction, the crash crews have 3 minutes from initial alarm nitofication to start dispensing foam or water. And that's to a location estimated to be the mid-point of the furthest runway from the firs station. FAR 139.
@@lionelguilbert6493 Sorry, at MEM it was two when I was there, which is a bit difficult to do on airports of any size. I think the CFR folks at TPA did well..
Great job filming the event Captain Steve!!
Thanks 😊
This made the 6 o'clock news in Australia Captain. Nice work.
Fast reaction by the pilots👏👏
That could’ve been a lot worse. It seemed like an eternity before those fire trucks got to the plane. Captain did a great job to keep that plane on the ground.
If the pilots actually thought they were in danger, he would have had the plane evacuated.
The airplane has to withstand a brake fire for 5 minutes without any fire fighters because it takes time for CFR to respond. When they test new airplanes, they have the trucks standing by but the firemen have to wait 5 minutes to put out the flames.
The ARFF trucks just can't fly out of the station and onto runways, taxiways , etc. they have to get clearance too. You dont need another mishap with a plane and crash trucks responding to another emergency. With no warning it all takes time.
@@jaywilliamson9860 Shame shame shame! You're one of the few people here interjecting a sane and logical response to todays incident.
@@frankgrimesification thats because i spent all day at the Philly Airport Fire Station one day, you learn a lot
I'm glad you were there Captain Steve, as usual! I went too TPA to take some pics and saw the plane sitting there. I knew something bad happend. Came home, opened up CZcams, and your video was right there! Thank you!
Just glad no injuries 👍
Seem by the book to me. They have 3 minutes to be at runway midpoint by the book, and this plane was all the way down by runway end. Need the ATC to hear when the call may have been made, but this is a timely response for an unknown emergency occurring. Clearly ARFF was ready to respond and did when called, and call must not have been delayed.
Ignorance is bliss in his case for some reason, like you said, this was textbook response with nothing to worry about as everyone involved train for situations like this very regularly. 🤷♂
This is a WOW! I watched the whole video and I don’t know when exactly this happened, but still waiting to confirm from Captain Steve. A couple of thoughts.
1. An INCREDIBLE job by the crew
2. Federal law requires that ARFF response must be within 3 minutes to the center of the most distant runway…and ARFF did that. So before everyone has a heart attack, great response time by the ARFF team at TPA
3. You never what you will see, so continue enjoying spotting friends!
4. And of course, credit to Captain Steve Markovich in TPA for the video. Great job!
"Where IS everybody".... Eating burgers and sipping Soda!!😅😅😂😂 But those Pilots did a fantastic job. 👍👍
Rejected takeoff at 153 knots, damn. The deceleration must have been felt😄
When the gear catches fire it gets exciting and dangerous. OMG! Capt. Steve your voice went up at least an octave! Good golly Miss Molly.
Took me by surprise got a wee bit over excited 😜
Hydraulics catching fire too could be a whole nother ball of yarn too
@@CaptainStevenMarkovichYou were channeling us all.
"Roll the trucks!!!!"
I was on a military USAF C-5 once that landed in Cairo Egypt that had the same issue. We all bailed out of that thing in the middle of the night on a taxiway. Come to find out, it was so hot there that the brakes caught fire, causing the tires to blow. We left that aircraft quick though.
Great story thanks for sharing
@CaptainStevenMarkovich I tell you that I enjoyed the safety practices of the military and trusted them way more than the civilian airline industry. You would think it would be the opposite, but in reality, the military was safer. I flew in combat and was a C-130 Flight Engineer. We had to fly at low altitudes, dodging bullets, evading missle threats, landing on dirt roads in the middle of indian country as we sometimes said, and I felt safer then than flying United to Honolulu. Why? Because of the people around me and our processes of safety, recruiting, and the true nature of how hard the training and recurring training was. It weeded out the folks most of the time to include maintenance. I worked aircraft maintenance for 12 years before I got the bug to fly. Those old heads (Vietnam vets) who trained me in maintenance were hard core folks on safety and repeatedly told me that the maintenance and flight manuals were mostly written in blood, and it stuck with me. No wonder they slapped us, poked us, and chewed us out if things weren't done correctly. Life and death is serious, and we have an issue today with safety.
@@chrisspratlin5656 I’ve got a lot of C-130 time as an IP. There are pluses and minuses with both military flying and civilian flying. Much of it is comparing apples to oranges. Both have pilots that should have been weeded out. The mission of the military is more dangerous, but we also don’t fly as many hours. The training program in the airlines is far better, but I the winging program (initial flight training) in the military is superior.
@@av8rgrip Cool. Well, that is great to hear. I have friends who fly commercial with the airlines. Yeah, I know that there are weak ones in all organizations. I am a dispatcher for the DOD now. I guess I have been watching too many videos on here about Boeing and the failures. I know also that nothing is going to be perfect, but I think we have some challenges that need to be seriously addressed. Cheers!
That was wild, I've never given any thought to things that could go wrong but I am now. Thank goodness everyone is safe and got thru a near disaster .....
Thank you for the outstanding videos but today was award winning. I will assume that AA and TPA Fire will requesting a copy of the video. I was wondering if you ever videotaped ant misfortunes but has answered that. We salute you Captain Steve.
Have heard from news stations already
They always say that "takeoffs are optional", but, "landings are mandatory." ✈️
This guy sounds like a Train FOAMER! "Roll the trucks! Roll the trucks!!"
People don't realize how big airports are, and how long the runways are. The call has to go in for the fire Dept to attend, they have to get suited up, an onto the truck. .Then they have to drive the probably 2 miles, at least, to get from the station, to where the plane stopped. Don't forget they also have to shut down the area from the fire station to where the plane stopped, as there are dozens of other aircraft moving around that have no idea what is happening, You don't want a plane to strike one of the responding fire units. Creating a huge tragedy. The response time was fantastic when you bother to look at all the variables. Plus, they kept the passengers on the plane because they were following protocol.
WRONG!!!! 2-miles...Google map an airport and see for yourself. All stop is called...nothing moves until emergency is over. This was a very long response...probably because no one knew there was a fire for quite some time. FAA standard is 3-minute response from time of call to on scene anywhere on property--that's why stations are strategically placed where they are.
@@frankb6333 Unless there was a bunch of editing done, it looks like the response time was a little over 3 minutes if you count from when the tire blew and allow the crew time to notify the tower. Also, airport runways are over a mile long, with the ones for the largest planes being close to 2, so it's reasonable to expect that vehicles are going to have to travel at least some distance to get there. If you'll notice on this video, it appears that at least half a mile was added just in having to drive down and around the fence. Also, it's safe to assume procedures and thus response times are different for takeoffs vs. landings...with the difference being that they're usually made aware of problems before a plane lands and stage accordingly....speeding up the response times.
And at no time was the filming stopped and the call to 911 made by the person filming who could actually SEE fire, and give ARFF updates until they arrived.
The new YT age, film the disaster, don't put the camera down and help.
@@tallmansfavorites7563 you don't call 911 for a on-airfield aircraft emergency. The Tower sees it, the pilots notifies the tower, and the tower notifies the airport fire department that is on the airfield....
Wow what a catch!!! That’s wild!! Glad they made it off safely and ARFF got there pretty quickly!
NO the video was cut.
....it took over four minutes to respond....unacceptable...
As a former, now retired 737 Captain, above 100 K, I would have advanced the power and gone flying. He did a near V1 abort with a blown tire, less footprint, less effective braking. Both engines appeared to be fine. The fire was probably a result of excessive braking, friction from the blown tire and probably a bit later blew the fuse plugs in all the tires. Going airborne would have been the safer choice,. The procedure was to leave the gear down for cooling and not having the gear hang up if retracted. he 737 had a system that a frayed tire would cause the rear to extend anyway. The gear gravity extends and the overcenter struts hydraulically lock it in place. Another part of the procedure was that after landing and in this case aborting, you leave the flaps extended as they probably were damaged. It looked like he did a nice job on the abort and perhaps lady luck was on his side. I wasn't there and it's easy to arm chair quarterback.
I was going to post this same comment. Not sure what speed this occurred at but had to be close to V1. The problem with a blown tire(s) and a high speed abort is you have no idea what kind of braking you'll have. Often the better choice is to go fly and then come back around after burning off fuel and touch it down on the approach end of the runway with plenty of stopping distance.
@@richarddodson3620
Ditto. I guess it could’ve made quite a bang when it went causing a startle reaction. Looks like the tread came off.
Captain Dodson, I could not agree more and thank you for your comments. Greetings from retirement as well! There are additional advantages I'd like to add to the conversation for continuing the takeoff with a blown tire above 100 knots. You can pick your runway/airport and have all of that runway available, plus, you can have the ARFF ready in place in case something does go wrong. That this Captain was able to keep the aircraft under control speaks that he is skilled. However, the only reason he was able stop with a blown main tire after initiating a rejected takeoff near V1 tells me that the flight was thankfully nowhere near operating on a balanced field situation, in this case, due to the long runway. That was fortunate for all involved, and ample reason to assess the situation first before making a hasty decision because we don't always have that luxury. As it was, they were in a high energy state with the combined speed and weight because: 1. the passenger load was probably full and 2. they were fueled to get to Phoenix. The motto we were taught was to use standard operating procedure as an important element in preventing incidents, accidents, and worse, and that still applies.
Great capture!
Edit you answered your own question they def didnt know they were on fire! Usually blown tires are nothing to get excited about....luckily one of the tests the faa requires is that all airliners remain stationary after a rejected takeoff just before v1 at MTOW and minimally worn brakes for 5 mins without anything else other than the brakes catching on fire.
Thank you Captain Steven! We appreciate you!
great catch. I'm glad everyone is okay. when you're at the airport as much as you are you're bound to see something crazy.
All these years thousands of videos today was that day
@@CaptainStevenMarkovichIt actually is a positive statement on Aviation that with all the spotting you have done this is your first emergency.
Wow! Glad all went well. Great catch, Capt!
Great catch, Glad it worked out ok.
**Update**
With the help of Crisdel, Trueline Coring and cutting, and Airport Operations.
-The Runway was cleared of all debris.
-All of damaged runway has been cut and removed already.
-Mixing concrete on site and repairing patches.
Airport should be resuming normal operations on this runway within a few days
Great catch Captain Steve. You were at the right place at the right time. Don't listen to the naysayers (Karens & Kens) there was nothing wrong with your commentary. Anybody would have gotten excited seeing a tire blow on about takeoff and then stop midway then catch on fire 🔥🔥. Airport ops did their job putting out the fire 🚒🔥🚒🚒. Glad that it worked out okay for everyone involved. Keep up the AWESOME WORK!!!
Amazing catch, glad everything worked out well in the end.
Yes 👏
Wow, Capt Steven, you have been at TPA and other airports every day for a long time. I believe that this is the first incident on spotting TPA. Flying is the safest way to travel. And the funnest. 👍✌️
High speed aborts are serious business….great job by the pilots. Luckily they were on 19R 2700’ longer than 19L. They used it all.
Yes. They were over 150 kts when it blew.
Thank the Lord for a pilot that was alert to what was happening !!
Many hours in the simulator going through this and many other emergency scenarios. Years ago I was in an flight where we lost one engine between S1 and rotation. Our pilot had no choice but to continue and climb out. Aviate, navigate, and communicate. Crew recognized emergency, and their training ensured a safe and positive outcome. I wonder if the media will identify this as a Boeing issue?
The crew here did an amazing job.
Boeing tests these aircraft by letting tires explode and catch fire (usually during hot braker testing), then refuse to let the fire department put out the fire in order to see how the aircraft behaves. None burned up in testing. My father-in-law used to watch these tests and be amazed. During this takeoff, the tire crap all over that runway is the mess to be worried about. At least it was before V1!
Not just Boeing, it's an FAA requires test for any airliner to operate in the US
it's actually more than that. Brakes pads are worn down to the minimum you are allowed to take-off, the plane is loaded to it's maximum weight, and a rejected takeoff is done at the maximum speed a takeoff should be done, then the plane is brought to a stop and it must endure being stopped for 3 minutes (to simulate fire response time) and do not have any tire blow up due to the heat. The brake do catch fire and the tires safely plugs will melt releasing the air and prevent the tire from exploding. During that 3 minute there is enought time to safely evacuate the plane should it be needed. Once the fire dept arrive they hose down the brake to cool them and the situation is over.
Too bad he probably won't acknowledge your comment (an informed one at that) since you didn't congratulate him for the video, being the "expert" on the scene plane watcher. ATC and Crews train and drill for these exact situations so everything you see there happened the way it should happen, nothing to panic about...
@@julienjjj Excellent description. Thank you for filling in the details. I believe that thrust reversers are not used during that test, also.
I'd be interested in knowing how far below V1 it was. In general, you're better off continuing the takeoff if you're close to V1 because a landing in the first 1500 feet of a long runway with a blown tire is preferable to a high speed abort in one. My guess is that the airplane yawed when the tires blew and the crew assumed it was an engine failure below V1, hence the abort.
Dude relax Tampa is trying to beat the super late response time of Seattle when that Delta A320 has that forward E&E fire at the gate ha.🤣🤣
Ooohhh snap I hope everyone was OK! Thanks for still being out there !
Great Catch Captain!
We were there till 12 midnight repairing the runway and sweeping up debris
Thanks Alex great information thanks for sharing.
This Captain made a career defining decision. There is no “blown tire” warning in the cockpit. He felt the airplane was unsafe to continue, so he rejected the takeoff.
If ANY suit and tie expert at American or anywhere else questions his actions, all he has to say is “there is your damn airplane. Go fix it. I didn’t break it, it broke itself”.
The Captain was confronted with that split second decision we all train for, are ready for on every takeoff, but make it to retirement not having performed the maneuver.
WELL DONE, CAPTAIN! Crew scheduling will be in touch soon with your updated schedule.
Don’t forget the maintenance logbook entry. 🤯 👨🏻✈
Well said Bravo to the crew!
WOW just WOW, incredible!
Great AA captain there! Blown tires can be scary
Captain M great work calling it out I saw you on TV my family is doing well after hurricane Beryl came through on Monday lights finally came on yesterday hear near the Houston Hobby Airport thank you for your service thank you
Glad you are ok and have power
It was almost at V1. The captain made an awesome call and saved everyone. It’s the miracle of TAMPA.
All I did was get overly excited 😜
This extreme heat is probably the culprit, makes tires explode.
What a catch mate! Good to read that everyone is safe!
Thanks!
Super Thanks Mike 😊👍 Have a Super Awesome Day 😊
EXCELLENT VIDEO . WELL DONE. ALSO GREAT JOB BY THE PILOTS.
Yes they stopped that airplane beautifully
GOOD JOB CAPTAIN
They did OK, magnesium fires are incredibly difficult to extinguish. During my stint in the USAF, I saw quite a few wheel fires on C-141B's from pilots braking too aggressively, especially practicing no flap landings. The rims for the tires were made of magnesium.
Thank you for your service 👍👍
I believe the pilots did a great job considering they were either at V1 or very close to rotation speed .Great job getting this on video.
I bet those firefighters were super stoked to go out and do something.
They were probably more productive and useful than you were today.
Great video. Right to the point and stayed on the action the whole time!
What else was he supposed to put his camera on? All the airplanes not disembarking?
Wow glad everyone is ok, certainly don’t see that everyday. Beautiful camera work captain!
Amazing video! You got the action perfectly!
“Where in the world are the trucks?”
WTF kind of question is this? The trucks don't just magically appear when something happens, the tower has to call the fire department, the department tones out the call, and it takes a few seconds to get in the truck, get it started and rolling out to the scene. The FAA has strict guidelines on how long it should take for various incident types, but literally none of them require a magical instantaneous response.
The tower controller should have been watching the departure, realized a problem, and rolled the equipment- seconds instead of minutes.
can you imagine what the passengers thought when they saw all the fire trucks?? you were kinda excited also Capt!!!
@@dennishaley2821 he knows what can happen with a little problem and he really cares about people. Rather see him excited than nit giving a damn!!! Great job captain! You’re a great man!!!!

@@poppyrowland1385 the fure is under the plane at the landing gear. The pilots didn’t see it either.

In the sim, we'd be literally on edge waiting for that V1 cut that we KNEW was coming. I only had one real world high speed abort, but man did it happen fast. Good job to this crew.
Yes real pros at work here 👍
Certainly not dei hires.
@@adamporath9022 while I'm certainly no fan of DEI hiring, especially in an industry where skill and experience matter the most, I just urge you not to automatically view every pilot of color or female pilot as a diversity hire. Maybe you don't make that assumption, but I hear so many people that do. Hands down the most professional pilot I ever flew with is a black man. My all time favorite captain is a woman. She was so calm and collected on the flight deck, she made grueling days manageable. I had several female students who could hold their own amongst the guys, and I've had a few white male students who couldn't fly a kite.
@@inglewoodwhb The whole point of Diversity hiring is that White men tend to get hired for the colour of their skin or gender, rather than skill.
DEI hiring actually increases the quality of the candidates hired, all other things being equal.
Where it can go wrong is if hires from marginalized groups are willing to put up with poor pay and working conditions.
The people complaining about DEI hires are blaming management greed and incompetence on the victims.
GREAT JOB CREW !
Blown tires happen. Just part of life.
Former TPA employee here. Depending on when the trees have been cut, that's potentially the only movement space on the airfield not visible from the tower. That could be why I don't hear the tower report the fire to them.
wow, what a catch! im glad arff handled it quickly. i hope there are no injuries.
Holy moly. Major props to two captains...you as well as the one in that cockpit. No apologies needed. Take your time with stuff.
What did the sea captain do to deserve props? It was the actual real captain of the 737 that deserves props for properly handling the situation.
@@frankgrimesification and that's what I said. thanks for the feedback
Good catch, Captain. The NTSB of news stations might want to see your footage.
incredable catch Capt and good morning to you
👋
WOW! awesome catch.
WHOLY MOLY that was insane great job by the pilots to just reject and not depart since they had all that runway
Well said 👍
Wow! Fire trucks for the American Airlines aircraft and valium for the narrator!
💯
Idk I’d have prob been worse, sittin there seein no one respond in a timely manner to a situation where a plane may just explode & ppl die! 🫣
@@oohyllab Great post for showing your lack of knowledge about aviation and aircraft design. Hats off to you, Bippy!
Gotta love all the keyboard experts in the comments below.
Steve, I sent you a Facebook message in regards to this earlier today. I’m glad you were able to catch it.
Right place right time! Excellent video.
Thanks Greg 😊👍 yep right place right time
My next door neighbor's hair stylist's cousin's ex-boyfriend's dog groomer was on that flights and said it was ain't no thang.
The guy that drives the ice cream truck in my neighborhood was on that flight.
@@frankgrimesification And doing both at the same time.
Thank God for this amazing Captain....awesome job keeping it together. Thank God no injuries. SOOOOOOOOO much to be thankful for.
Well said 👍
WOW!!! Just saw this on the ABC evening news with David Muir here tonight Wednesday. WOWEEE!!!!!
Rejected take off switch does it's job. Max brakes and full reverse. Great job by pilot in charge. 😊
Well said. Over 170 mph and safely stopped the aircraft. True pros 👍
You were on tv I was watching my local Tampa tv and it said the source was you and they said your name
I’ve never seen your channel but somehow this showed up on my CZcams. Nothing like this footage anywhere else. I bet you were busy! You have a new subscriber. Thanks for your work.
Captain Steven you have made the national news this morning with your footage!!!
The bowling alley on Hillsboro on the north side also has great views of landings coming in from the north! Close up views and sounds of landings.
Yes it does but the traffic is a pain
I flew out this morning when this happened. I was expecting to take off on that runway but we were in line for the other runway and saw the trucks surrounding the airplane. According to NOTMAS it looks like that runway is going to be closed for a while
Yep still closed plane still on taxi way. Safe travels
