Pilot Blog | Airline Pilot about Crash of Jeju B737 at Muan | No gear | Bird Skrike | Concrete wall

Guys, Bird Strike even with a single engine loss doesn't cause huge Hydlaulic problems. For now it is still a mistery of why there was a belly landing with no flaps and reverser2 open. My deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who tragically lost their lives in this heartbreaking incident.

Russia north Korea angles?

Another video shows that, in my opinion, the plane touches the ground much too late and loses only a little speed during the slide. To me the impact looks like it happened at a speed of over 200 km/h. Video was shown on CRUX.

I wonder what a brakechute for emergencies could have achived there.

Thx for your analysis

why is there barrier

Thank you for your sensitive and informative coverage, Denys.

Fake News:

Respected Mr. Putin and Russia responsible for this plane crash.

Mr. Putin, along with his North Korean soldiers constructed this brick wall.

From India

Even if the landing gear couldn't be lowered why was there not a carpet of foam laid down?

The plane seems to be landing in the opposite direction on the runway. Looking at the arrows on it

Pilot My Arse.

Wtf... 737... the pilot was so damn high he saw the antenna and thought it was airport .... 😂😂😂

Guess we have to wait for the flight recorder analysis to know what really happened.

Explain to me how on the world is a bird gonna hit the engine and the fuselage of the airplane ladderly from the side when it's going forward it's so much momentum and thrust for a bird's Pierces and makes some sort of damage to take down the navigation system There's no proof of verifiable shropnel going to the front of the airplane taking down the navigation system all of the damage from the same missile that hit it was from the side from the engine side going backwards of the fuselage so birds can do that...

nothing makes a lot of sense. let’s go to the landing gear, when have you heard of this? the least you can get the rear down whether manual or gravity as the wheels are exposed at all times. the nose is retracted in but still can be dropped. now the flaps etc this is very odd and why was there a wall? i thought there would be the arrester style concrete or earth.

Bird skrike eh?
Anyway arresting nets would make far more sense then concrete walls at the end of run ways.

Thankfully,Even though I'm not a pilot, thank you.

Chinese the best Pilots in the World! China Number 1!

Why a concrete wall instead of using EMAS im guessing because of the cost.

I suspect that, similar to the LOT 016 accident in Poland that occurred in 2011, there might have been a combination of issues involving the hydraulic system and electrical problems, such as those related to the circuit breakers for the manual landing gear.

Why didn't the pilots land the plane land on water if the landing gear is not opening?

Seems to me that the plane also landed really long.
There's no way the plane would be going at that speed if the pilot got it down at the beginning of the runway.
Lots of things went really bad here....

The embankment was very foolish

It is almost as if the pilot or pilots purposely crashed this aircraft on quite literally a suicide mission. That is an extreme conspiracy theory, but remember what the pilot did with German wings flying into the Alps. It is a possibility if one pilot overpowered the other pilot?

There is a longer version of the footage of that aircraft skidding down the runway. In the first second of that video you can see it touching down on the runway…WAAAAAYYYY past the touchdown zone, actually past abeam the control tower. Which means they left at least 1500m of useable runway BEHIND them before touching down on this 2800m runway. Damnit.

I agree.. the cement wall should not have been that massive. Thanks for the report

It was aligned pretty good but came in way too fast. Even with a normal approach belly landing it would have stopped in time if the engine power was reduced. Apart from hydraulics issue something doesn't add up.

Boeing 737 -800 was grounded earlier due to several crashes regarding technical glitches..737 - 800 is still a nightmare to me..
The review was absolutely correct regarding the concrete wall at the end of the runway...

Well, people can't blame Putin for this one.

my assessment shows pilots deliberately stagnated reverse thruster action on left engine to try steer the craft away from the concrete embankment so that craft leers to its right and miss that concrete.. that's why reverse thruster is only operational in right engine. this is so so sad. may God comfort the bereaved. great assessment sir. good job

Excellent analysis my friend.

To the crew , you saved 2 lives and you got her home , May you rest in peace

Airplane was too fast at very low altitude, that landing speed was too much , just like they didn’t check whether landing gears were deployed or not

By far the best break down

Reminds me of the once popular concrete lampposts, which were found to cause more fatalities and injuries when a car struck its sturdy structure! Fortunately, they have been replaced with collapsible zinc lampposts! Perhaps the management of Muan airport did not get the memo or just too indifferent about it! It's a tragedy when more lives could have been saved!

Thanks Dennis for getting a great analysis up on this incident so quickly. lots of questions outstanding thats for sure. 200 knots hot and i agree what TF is a wall like that doing there?

What the FUCK. How could everyone but the two in the absolute asshole of the plane die? Did they not burn enough fuel before trying that? I guess if an engine goes you don't have the ability to keep burning fuel. I'm with you on that ridiculous walk though. Lots of strange stuff here. Very strange.

Whatever and however you analyse, the bottom line is the plane, a Boeing 737-800. It caused the crash, the rest are just extensions of the crash.

Boeing 737 again?

KM,m,LG,

If landing gear was stucked why piolet not land plane in ocean.

Residential property near a commercial runway is just beyond me. Is this why the wall was so thick?

Brilliant timing and analysis. Thanks.

My condolences to their lovely family 👪
May God strengthen and console them.

This is absolutely awful. I've seen enough mass tragedies in S. Korea in my lifetime, and all of them were preventable. I still remember the Sewol ferry tragedy, Itaewon Halloween tragedy, and now THIS??? 😖😩

Oo again and again again after norway now korea 😮 boeing should stop immediately producing this 737 killers, airbus was super aircraft now they dont use it anymore !!!

Exactly what I said ( to myself ) why would you build that at the end of a runway ? And all runways should have deep rubble bed's at the end of the runways. Yeah very strange indeed. Why didn't they lower the gear....I think that reverser probably opened due to impact

After the Azerbaijani crash which Russia owned up to this one also smells of the same. Especially, after the S. Korean President declared martial law. N. Korea must be asking much in exchange for 10,000 N. Korean soldiers fighting in Ukraine. Spoofing GPS in this war was pretty common. Jamming and taking over drones, likewise. The Allies did this to Iran to sabotage its nuclear facilities. So, what is new? The South Korean airliner that went down in the Kamchatka peninsula was a precedent.

Thank you for your explanations. Incredible to place such a huge concrete wall right in front front of the airway. They had no chance to survive. May all these people rest in peace.🙏
