A321 TOGA and Tail Strike!
Vložit

- Our feed is always around 20 seconds out after we hit the ‘go live’ button (quite a bit more complexed than that). But as we started the feed, this A321neo from Aberdeen was on approach so we went for it. But the feed went ‘live’ to the viewers as the jet was climbing-out. So here it is! A full-on Touch and go, with a tail strike - checkout the paint dust after contact! You can also see the empennage shaking as it drags.
I thought the pilot had it, but the wind was swirling over the Office buildings on the Bath Road. And there’s a gap between the open reach building and the next set of office buildings, which allows the gusts to flow unrestricted across the runway.
In my view, the pilot deserves a medal! @BritishAirways training could use this in a scenario - happy to supply the footage FOC chaps 😉 but seriously, well done that Pilot.
I have to say, I had no chance to watch it back during the live, but Gilly had a quick look and called Tail Strike. I knew it was close, but due to the small monitor and being ‘in the moment’ I missed the tail drag. So good spot GP.
This has to go down as one of our best moments, just a shame we were 20 seconds late. Still, here’s how it’s played-out

let's get a moment to appreciate the power of those engines
also the pilots for quick decision..
And the skills from the pilots
Triple jabbed engines!!!
@@annarend7056 You mean the drivers doing their jobs?
@@Sterlingjob there is doing your job and being good/skilled at doing your job. And, yes I appreciate when somebody has this extra. That doesn't mean, that I don't consider the engine power relevant. But only the engines wouldn't have saved it.
WOW! That was nerve wracking to watch, especially seeing them struggle to execute the go around. Never seen a plane suddenly swing sideways like that with both wheels on the ground.
maybe it will crash what happened on china airlines flight 611 over taipei which crashed soon after takeoff on 25 may 2002 225 fatalities
Same here, it's like the lift suddenly increased on the right wing, or suddenly decreased on the the left wing. Very nerve-wracking indeed!
@@virginiamudimu7333 Thankfully, no, this plane won't crash like that Chinese Airlines 747. That crashed (more than 20 years after the tailstrike that caused its damage) because the section that was damaged was badly repaired. British Airways, and the safety inspectors, won't allow that to happen.
I was in a BA plane from ABZ years ago, and it was similar to this. To be honest, the cross winds at ABZ should mean that the pilots are used to this.
My flight landed 1st go, but I've never seen the tarmac on both sides so closely, and I hope it's the last.
Imagine being a passenger on that plane.
You’re a legend mate, absolute legend, the Murray Walker of aircraft landings and take offs
RIP.
A Leg-end
Just shows how the wind can suddenly bite even when it looks like the aircraft is making a smooth landing. Amazing that they were able to literally power out of it and get flying again.
Ground effects meets wind sheer...just when you think you got this, Mother Nature says ah no...
It is a pretty standard procedure to perform a go around and it is trained regularly. But still looks amazing and scary. Glad I was not onboard as a passenger 🙂
@@psindrup “standard” in heavy winds? I think not….
@@pearljam_1 It very much IS STANDARD, in heavy winds and if the crew is not happy, a Go-Around is one of the things that must not be had second thoughts about, but simply DONE!
@@sts1243 I’m saying nobody practices in heavy wind like that. Just like a fighter pilot is trained to hit the eject button - nobody actually does it to practice. Two totally different experiences.
OH MY GOD. GILLY!!! 😆😆😆😆😆 that was a proper brown trouser moment, but we’ll done to the pilot 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Massive respect to the pilot for keeping control and getting the Airbus back in the. Air 👌
0 respect for an utter GARBAGE landing attempt
@@ScreaminEmu you ever landed a passenger jet?
@@thatblueberryguy Thousands of times. You?
Ouch! Hard burn!
@@ScreaminEmu you must be a ball fun Mr Perfect.
Wow, that was crazy. Thanks for all the work you do to bring us these streams.
Yet again BIGJET TV is on point to bring us the best coverage of aviation 👍👍👌👏👏
Thank you and Well done Jerry and all the team
Wow, great spot J&G and what a recovery by the pilot. Amazing footage.
Wow that wind can be devastating. God bless these pilots, it certainly can't be easy!
I was on this flight. Twitchy bum and quite a few people puking 😬
This clip just made the national news in the US - good capture Jerry!!!
Marvelous to see and very interesting to read the real pilots' thoughts on the causes of the incident and the human and technological responses to the crisis ! If I ever fly again it will be with more knowledge of why my palms are sweating !
Wow!! Great footage Jerry. Tail strike as well!!😲😲
Brilliant work Jerry. And you made it onto prime time national TV 📺
That was scary, glad the outcome was a good one👍 What a start to the show😮
Such amazing skills! That pilot save many many lifes. A hero♥️
I'd say doing their jobs rather than heroes. Heroes go above and beyond. These were pilots landing the plane that they were also in. Kudos for not hurting people though.
@@microacg exactly. The word "hero" is used far too frequently in these situations. Yes, the pilots made decisions that saved lives. But that's their training and their jobs. A hero puts themselves in harms way, when they didnt have to, to save somebody else.
Wow what a catch that was Jerry. Props to the Pilot for the save and getting her back up safely for the go around. Massive skill to save that left handed lurch right at the last. This is why Windy arrivals are my Favorite, Getting to witness the skill of the Pilot.
Props to the pilot? That whole thing was pilot induced. Very avoidable.
@@Spyke-lz2hl And you know this how?
@@Spyke-lz2hl Thank you for your input, Have a nice day !
@@Spyke-lz2hl another one who doesn’t know what he’s blathering about.
Thanks Jerry for uploading that...I have been waiting for it.....wow No joking...crazy landing!
Juan Browne made a video and referenced this video. He is the reason why I watch this channel. I had already put in my like 👍 before he mentioned it. Both of you guys are my truth in Aviation sources. Really glad to follow both of you. Happy subscriber 😊!
Blancoliro channel had a link to this video. I am now subscribing here!
You are creating important content for the aviation community. Thanks for that.
oh my flipping God! that was a amazing catch!
I love a well executed touch and go
Wow. Great capture Jerry!
I don't know which was more exciting: the tail strike /side bounce / go around or the spine-tingling commentary!
I do actually rather enjoy Jerry's reactions 🤣
@@ScreaminEmu : Jerry is a superb commentator to be sure !
Wow, that was a close call but the pilot(s) pulled it off and prevented it being a disaster. Congratulations to them. I can imagine the passengers starting to clap when it landed but then whoops. I hope nobody was toppled over in the cabin or had any overhead contents dumped on them. A bit of wild ride there but rescued form worse. Phew.
That’s a superb upload , well done 👏🏽
Damn would definitely not want to have been a passenger on that plane. Crazy landing. Well done to the pilot for getting it back up in the air great skills. Well done to Jerry/Gilly for capturing that footage
Omg! That is some crazy footage. I would have not wanted to be on that flight! Wow!
OMG, that was more dramatic than Jerry explained. Jaw dropping!
Wow, that was just insane!
This guys reaction makes it a million times better
Parabéns pelp registro . Foi de tirar o fôlego. Ainda bem que deu tudo certo.
I'd say an excellent job by the crew and an unfortunate situation leading to the tail strike. My guess as to what happened:
1: Stable approach over the threshold and right wing dipped to counteract being blown across the runway after decrabbing (standard)
2: Initial bounce on one wheel leads to a heavy touch down on both. Go around probably called at heavy touch down in anticipation of another bounce. Spoilers start to deploy but as soon as TOGA is selected, they auto retract.
3: A gust hits the aircraft at the worst moment, catching and lifting the now spoiler free wings. Although TOGA has been selected, the relatively long spool up time means there is a few second lag between idle at the flare and full commanded thrust.
4: The second the wing lifts, you can see an immediate right roll command, and with the thrust kicking in, and workload incredibly high and capacity low, it would be incredibly easy to prioritise getting away, and forgetting you're in the tailstrike prone A321, and not the 319/20 you'd been flying the day before.
Just my two cents, but I'd say the worst part of this crews day was the rotten luck in having the event filmed 🤣
Dont it floated for quite long time? Probably wind change low near ground?
Hesitation kills this crew showed a lack of leadership.
@@airhab lol, leave this one to people who have actually operated heavy multi-engine aircraft.
I agree, especially the aprt about the spoilers retracting, initially thought they were inputting a right roll there but the aileron isn't moving in that instance so it does look like the spoiler came up, then retracted. Interesting that they didn't come up after the first touchdown but I guess there wasn't enough weight on the wheel to trigger them
Why would they have clean wings having just touched down. Very very unlikely.
Wow!!! Great video.
This one should go viral. ✈✈✈🌟🌟🌟
Omg was on edge of seat scary. Ty for posting it.
Makes me laugh how some people post comments here criticising rudely other REAL pilots views of the incident from years of experience. Great capture btw Big Jet TV!
Great camera work. Thank goodness the pilot regained control.
Seen this clip on sky news which brought me to your channel. Thanks for the video, the skill of the Pilot is nothing but incredible to fly out of that!
Holy moly. That is why Pilot Training is needed for this kind of situation.
Love this channel. I was watching this morning from California (afternoon there) and it was awesome to watch the cross wind landings. That's not something we see too much out here with the boys streaming live at LAX. Great camera work and love the commentary. Keep up the awesome stream.
Been waiting for this all day since Jerry went live. BRILLIANT
Thanks Jerry. Always interesting to see not so regular footage.
Just heard about your channel on Fox News this morning and can't tell you how thrilled I am. I'm a big jet girl! Finishing up your video from Heathrow yesterday. What an absolute blast! Thanks for all you are doing.
Excellent work, Jerry. You weren't kidding!
Good job it was full of Aberdonians, used to getting battered by the wind, "Nae bother at all son"
😅👍
Well done BIG JET TV your all over the place with news cant beat Jerry and Gilly great footage.....
Superb capture and commentary 👏🏽
Oh my, I take my hat off to the pilot, he or she has amazing skill. Thank you Jerry / Gilly for the great bonus show today, I throughly enjoyed every minute.
Yeah, no, getting into a situation where you almost bang a wing/engine and DO bang the tail is not demonstrating skill, sorry.
@@ScreaminEmu you try it then
@@archiederbyshire2402 I do it for a living, dude.
@@ScreaminEmu You're a liar.
It's definitely a brown trouser moment for the passengers. I'm glad the pilots skill saved the day
Great pilots👏👏👏
Wow, just missed it on the live, but glad you guys caught the action here, full marks to the Pilot for the Go around, great show as always
Wow - that's crazy! Nice catch Jerry! Great footage
HOLY CHIT!!! WoW! Tail strike on the TOGA. Good thing u were rolling tape before it was live Jerry LoL! Wow!
I love your commentary. Top class coverage that will go global. One in a million photo/vid opportunity. As I'm an avid follower here you prob have gained more fans due to that chance in a few hundred landings buy u...keep flying those cameras high in the sky...
Well up there with the best TOGA we have seen on the channel. Would not have enjoyed that if on board wow
My goodness! Big kudos to that pilot!
Thanks for uploading this, I was waiting for this like everyone else on the channel 🙂
He should’ve aborted after the first touchdown
This footage has gone viral. Best thing about being a plane spotter and catching these moments.
Just seen this on the dailymail too! Good capture of a very skillfully pilot to get them out of trouble! 👍
Wow! That must have been a serious gust of wind at the last second! Nice job by the pilot to manage that.
That was super scary. Deep appreciation for pilot skills!
Code brown moment no doubt!
@@grahamcrabb7714 lol
Great vid Jeff! That’s what we live for!
We saw your video in France ! I recognized directly lol ! It was incredible !
Wow unbelievable amazing skill by the pilot
Incredible catch. Fantastic recovery by the pilots.
That awesome tail end design👌
Amazing capture Jerry 👏 😍
That was UGLY!
Thanks for posting Jerry!
Note the spoilers....
What do you think caused it Juan?
@@TC.C excessive control inputs by the pilot in gusty conditions...can confuse the Airbus flight control logic and exacerbate the situation.
That’s Airbus for ya lol
Mr Browne follows this, nice!!!
Thank you Juan!
Kudos to the pilots skill, they got it under control and took off again quickly. I bet that takes some training and quick reflexes.
WOW! Scary stuff, Well done to the pilot.
Amazing pilot!
Jerry: yeah he’s got that
Pilot: let me take this dance
😄 yeh, it all looked good at 100ft!
Amazing catch Jerry and Gilly and amazing skills to get that aircraft back in the air!
gosh sweaty palms watching that one, good catch Jerry!
An instructive and important capture. Skills.
Christ that was sooo close, unstable and pilot caught out right at the last minute. Amazing catch jerry and Gilly glad they saved it though ...oooo
How the hell are we not staring at a major accident! That pilot has some major cahoonas!!! Wow wow wow what skill to hold it well done!!! 👏
Well done mate your footage made the news in Australian news tonight
Loved the, "oh my flippin"
Made my day while having coffee.
Came over from flightawares story about you today!
That was mad. Excellent camera work to match superb piloting. 👍🏻
Horrible piloting actually.
Wow wow wow. That is nothing but pure pilot skill. Thank god that worked out well.
Great catch... Pilot and cameraman! Also: YIKES!
And sky news have used it too, good work Jerry 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Been waiting for this. That plane must have hit the runway if not very close. I wouldn’t want to be a passenger in the plane. I would have had a heart attack. Bloody hell
I would have absolutely 💩💩 myself if I had been on that plane…..amazing skills from the pilot…….been waiting for this since Jerry went live! Xx thanks so such a great show as always xx
The amazing skills is not by screwing the airplane like this tailstrike !!!
Good catch for you and the pilots, very little indication it would turn out like that from the final approach!
Amazing footage Jerry and Gilly! Glad you caught it!
Well done G& J. You made the BBC news
As Jerry said that looked good until it tilted to the left and moved into a tailstrike position...whoa!
I would not liked to have been a passenger during all that! Massive respect to the life savers in the cockpit as that could have gone horribly wrong 🙏🏽
Wow that’s was amazing. It’s just been aired on prime time news in Australia
Wow that’s unbelievable!!!
Well Done BA crew. That was crazy to watch, Pilot Skill is always Key. Thank you Jerry & Gilly!
WOW, definately a tail strike as you can see the horizontal stabilizer shudder, good catch and good camera work.
The horizontal stabilizer was destabilized… 😂
As has been established in other comments, it was very close but not a tailstrike
@@ryanhaart it bent the drain mast…just seen the photos!
@@ryanhaart Fortunately we are all entitled to an opinion and after reviewing the footage frame by frame I am sticking with my original view, yes it may only be a bit of scratched paint because there was only a small pale smoke cloud but it touched.
@@britannia-foundry it 100% wasn’t a strike. AAIB wouldn’t have let it fly to GVA if it was. Even if only paint.
Amazing...great job of pilot...
Krikey, that was flippin’ unbelievable!
I'm no pilot just an aircraft tech but I believe that's why you apply crosswind correction even after initial touchdown I could be mistaken though.
Fair point Rayan. The generally face the wing into the wind on touchdown, but after the bounce and the aircraft becoming airborne again, he seemed to get caught by a sudden side gust?
Oufff, can’t imagine all the stress that went through to those on that plane ✈️ , great catch Jerry👍
I would have had a full-blown panic attack. It reminds me why I stopped flying years ago (almost had a panic attack on the plane which partially contributed to my horrible experience coming home).
Holy crap!! Well done that pilot!
What a capture!!!
Saw that it was insanely crazy wouldn't have liked being in there I'd have clung on to dear life.✈️😲
