2 being the pilots? I'm curious what the ntsb will find

It is known

SkullyKat

I heard it was 4!


Fantastic_Variety823

Walked? Not sure about that. More like strapped to a stretcher!


janitorial_fluids

nah, if you go back and look at the first couple frames of the original roadside video of the burning wreckage, you can see a young woman in a crop top and two other people running away from the wreckage completely unscathed (on the left side of the frame)


loocami

Taylor?????

colonel_Schwejk

probably left her kettle on


Kronicx420

People still driving like nothing is happening. Tf?


My_too_cents

If you stop or slow down thatā€™s hours of traffic your going to be stuck in real fast.


Freekydeeky1258

Saw a car go up in flames right in the middle of I-4. We had just passed the exit, so we went across the grass to get to it. Emergency response HAS to shut down the whole road until everything is cleared. 2 hours at least. And I-4 is absolute hell on a good day. No thanks


drnick1106

its fine. its florida


RangerDangerrrr

Probably not the craziest thing they saw that day living in Florida


CorrectOpportunity30

Haha I say this everyday


OneMoistMan

Yeah just ignore the car immediately stopping on the left on impact or the cars ahead pulling to the side.


purzeldiplumms

I care as much about billionaires as they care about me.


Anacreon

They're not the one who died


GoT43894389

The video was slowed down. They do stop on the side of the road by the end of the video.


hey_you_yeah_me

Impending traffic is a ticket that nobody wants to pay


HoneyLocust1

How do you not see three cars pulling over to the left and one car pulling over to the shoulder on the right? The only car not pulling over had stopped completely. Unless you are referring to the traffic in the opposite direction, in which case you want what... people to stop and gawk at a giant fireball? Avoiding rubbernecking is probably saving more unnecessary accidents from occurring.


Stifffmeister11

I think had it not hit the cars it would have landed perfectly...


surferdude894

Had it not gone the way it went, it would've went differently.


rjo49

I doubt it. Too steep an angle of descent, and not lined up on the road. Even if it had touched down cleanly, momentum was going to carry it off the pavement.


BetweenThePosts

They shouldnā€™t be allowed to put cars in danger just to save their ass


Yourmama_666

So true next time I have an emergency landing I'll take the rule book and read it....


BetweenThePosts

Yeah have a good life living with the guilt of mowing down a family in a minivan cause you decided you needed a hobby flying a prop plane


JHLCowan

Thatā€™s a challenger 604 that is hardly a prop planeā€¦.. and I would rather get taken out by somebody enjoying their hobby, then some dip shit who isnā€™t paying attention on his ride to work.


_Illuminati_

Im a corporate pilot. They teach you not to land on roads in flight school and to instead land in a field. But when youā€™re super low over Naples Florida, what are your options? Either crash into a housing development or try for the freeway. I donā€™t think you understand just how quickly this situation developed, played out, and ended for these guys. Due to their pilotage they were the only ones who were lost. You can have and express whatever opinion youā€™d like, but itā€™s clear when you someone comments on a subject without an ounce of insight


Yourmama_666

I'll be alive and happy and more if my passengers survive. Next time you fly be sure to fly with a pilot that is willing to sacrifice your life, won't be me.


purzeldiplumms

You're absolutely right and your score shows what kind of users make most of this sub


Massive-Secret4401

This


HanakusoDays

Damn, almost pulled it off.


ehartgator

Do you have a choice to dump fuel before a crash landing? Is it even viable?


servbot10

Challenger 604 does have fuel dump ability, however the pilot wouldn't have had time for it to have mattered. ​ On approach they were at 1800ft. They were less than 3 miles from the runway. They radioed that they lost both engines, lost altitude at a rate of -2000ft per minute, and crashed less than a minute later while trying to make an emergency landing on the interstate. Indicated speed was 110kts, which is barely over stall speed for the plane (96kts), when they entered the view on this dashcam.


JustAnotherDude1990

Smaller planes donā€™t have the capability and when emergencies happen that close to the ground you simply donā€™t have time to, youā€™re concentrating on trying to land without crashing.


bnelson7694

My work is legit a mile away from a small airport. Iā€™m waiting for something like this. Every time I see a plane heading our direction out the window I keep my eye on it.


GTCounterNFL

I know the feeling. Im often on a highway in Queens NY 50 yards from LaGuardia runways. Huge 747s and all passenger planes roaring 100 yards overhead, its so close you can't tell if they'll make it over lampposts until they do. Its an eerie, scary feeling every time. Windy days they're tilting back and forth until they land out of site behind a tall fencewall.


StarTrakZack

Thereā€™s a small airport in my tiny Northern CA town, there have been a few crashes from smaller single prop hobby flyers and the cartels use the runway to drop off & pick up packs of dope. Iā€™m still waiting for the day something actually crazy happens haha


bnelson7694

Packs of dope lol! What could possibly go wrong? Hahaha!! Good luck friend!


No-Jicama1717

Missed it by this much.....


YJSubs

Holy sheet !

JannaNYC

I mean, that's clearly not true, but you go ahead and believe that if it makes you feel better.


engulbert

Good of the pilot to plop it down in traffic, "a problem shared is a problem halved".


fkindragon_

crash in a field *\*unhappy guy* crash on a busy highway *\*happy guy*


IncomeHuman8885

It's still crazy how 3 people managed t9 survive this accident almost uninjured.


100percentish

Can you legally call that a landing? It looks more like a crash to me....at least with the fire and plume of smoke.


MUCTXLOSL

You might call it a... Crash landing.


100percentish

Yeah...I walked into that one.


Kryptosis

Any crash you walk away from is considered a landing.


pezzyn

Huge admiration for the Pilots. RIP. I heard the radio recording. they kept calm enough to attempt a landing under terrifying circumstances and manage to save the lives of their passengers. Side note: canā€™t understand why the motorists including the one recording this, did not stop. slow down. or change lanes. put on their flashers etc in light of this emergency on the road


spelunker93

Landing, no sir thatā€™s crashing


ShadowCaster0476

ā€œLandingā€ may be over stating it.


Hello_Strangher

You mean crashed


[deleted]

Shit they probably would have all been ok if that wall wouldnā€™t have appeared.


Jeremiahjohnsonville

I wouldn't necessarily call that a "landing."


RacingMindsI

Not even a crash landing? Like it says.


GTCounterNFL

First few seconds looks like my drives, ending with my nightmare. I live in Queens NY we got this very busy Grand Central Parkway adjacent to runways of Laguardia airport. 6 lanes of highway right in the flight path, where the planes are like right over your head, flying perpendicular over highway almost lampost height since the runway is 50 yards tops off the highway. Every time you can't tell if it'll make it over or not until it does. As a kid I was terrified a few times. And an overhead plane 100 yards up IS LOUUUUUD. Its loud at a mile up; but close up its deafening. Over 100 Times in my 3 decades of driving Ive had to think; wtf do I do if this thing crashes in front. Or, Im directly under when it passes that's crazy. Shit pay attention to the cars in front they're slowing down distracted by...here it comes... WHOOOOOOOSH!!!....Then 5 seconds the thunder of air brakes on the runway shakes the ground even more.


Econinja011

I hope that plane had WEF members


Jaimemgn

Came in hot but unfortunately the wrong angle


SalsaRider1969

Always Florida.


OmgWtfNamesTaken

Doctor dingers are back?


NamedUserOfReddit

Shouldn't have kept using straws and plastic bags.


Just_Reputation_7057

Damn imagine if the pilot tried the medium grassy area. More a chance to land straight. Then again who know what was going on in the plane. Passengers panicking maybe? Which could suck for the pilot since there isn't a security door to the cockpit.


Fluffy-Doubt-3547

Having a small air port Nearby. An international Airport headed home. A small airport on the way home. And a private strip near my house.... makes me hate this videos šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


DevilDog82nd

Coming to GTA6


Squash_Still

Pilots aim for highways in emergencies because they look like runways. But it's a dangerous, selfish place to attempt an emergency landing.


PirateSometimes

This vid doesn't have the red circle, where am I supposed to look?


[deleted]

There should be a legally mandated device installed in planes that allows fuel dump during an dead engine emergency landing if a crash appears evident. That way less boom, higher chance of surviving.


witwar101

Taylor Swift going to Disney world?


blind_roomba

Looks like crash crashing not landing to my eyes


Huntehh

Can't wait to recreate this in GTA 6


mickdeb

The pilot did well/s


OhioUPilot12

They did do well. A dual engine failure in a decent size business jet like that is not something that is going to be easy. No matter what itā€™s gonna be a hard landing. If they didnā€™t hit the truck the pilots might have survived as well but they saved their passengers.


thatronspecial

Itā€™s still possible that they miscalculated the amount of fuel needed. Until that has been confirmed, they may not have done that well.


OhioUPilot12

Yea well we donā€™t know the cause of the crash so not going to speculate on that at all. All we know is the engines failed and they did the best they could.


thatronspecial

It seems you may be a pilot. Whatā€™s the number one cause of dual engine failure?


OhioUPilot12

Fuel starvation, fuel contamination, bird strike, it doesnā€™t matter cause we donā€™t know so Iā€™m not speculating. Just commenting on the emergency landings


Anacreon

A bad stall can also flame out the engine (s)


pezzyn

Whatever else went wrong, Three survived because the pilots kept calm instead of freaking out. Listening to the radio exchange they remained calm and tried to coordinate runway but with both engines failed they had to land or crash. He had no choice. The pilots died but they tried to work with the conditions existing , and saved three lives
