> the crew rejected takeoff due to a hydraulic defect but veered left off the runway. The aircraft came to a stop on soft ground next to the Presidential Pavillion (about 2000 meters/6000 feet down the runway), the left wing briefly caught fire. All occupants evacuated via slides
- chefkd 2y agoquestion for a book I'm writing: how easy would planes be to mess up in such a way no issues appear until plane takes off?
- ceejayoz 2y agoVery. Examples: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Airlines_Flight_102 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Airlines_Flight_102 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Airlines_Flight_261 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Airlines_Flight_261 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Air_Lines_Flight_123 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Air_Lines_Flight_123 The last one was caused by a bad repair from a tail strike seven years earlier.
- bombcar 2y agoThe harder part would be a way that isn’t traceable afterwards. Read some NTSB documents about crashes especially ones where “maintenance” appears.
- huslage 2y agoThank you for this. The plane didn’t “crash” or fall out of the sky. It rejected takeoff and left the runway.
- addandsubtract 2y agoSo, a car driving into a ditch, didn't crash, it just rejected the road? A crash is a crash.
- ninju 2y agoA "crash" implies a collision with something. Per your example, a car can leave the road but when it collides with drainage ditch it becomes a crash In this case there was NO COLLSION with another object and therefore no crash
