Title: Emergency ocean landing Post by asanal on Jun 6th, 2011 at 4:30am
Over Atlantic ocean, close 150 miles to JFK Airport at 3000ft. I lost number one. >:( Problem was sudden leak at fuel tank. I had good fuel for number two and three. I shut down number one . Two engine were sufficient to land at JFK airport....But..suddenly with out any warning number two and three engines were also lost. :o :o :o I tried to start them. no success. I started APU. by now , another major additional problem developed, I lost rudder and ailerons partially and I was fighting with controls to hold the plane level, and maintain the glide speed,
I declared emergency to ATC and the Land was so far away to glide. I decided to ditch to the Ocean. AT THE END, I managed to glide and hold the pitch/speed under control and ditched to Ocean safety without any passenger injuries,. :D :D :D THat is my story Sanal http://img860.imageshack.us/img860/3631/emergency.jpg. http://img30.imageshack.us/img30/861/emeregency2.jpg |
