United Airlines flight 328 from Denver to HNL diverts due to smoke and flames coming from the right
20 Peb 2021
175 160 Ditonton
The FAA confirms that United United Flight 328 that was flying from Denver to Daniel K. Inouye International Airport in Honolulu right-engine failure shortly after takeoff.
Vertical video? Come on people
That looks like fun!
Whats happening this is the 2nd time. The last time the exact same thing happen in united airlines 1175
The cabin is silent of fear because GOD was in the midst of the people. 🙏💕🇺🇸
Hey pilots, GOOD JOB!
Mantap kali pilotnya bah
Window Seat Goals!!!
When you book with this company do you get complementary free underwhere and parachute,,,😮✌️
This Boeing 777 had two PW4000, these powered 777s are banned from flying in the UK 🇬🇧 this engine is not used by BA Boeing 777-200's and 300's.
@Kyron Baxter Only temporarily
How long have they been banned?
Listen to the audio as the pilots spoke with ATC. They sounded like the recording on a subway train announcing that Park Square Station was the next stop. So calm. I have a lot of respect for those pilots and the cabin crew. True professionals.
Appreciate engineering as well
I know one engine failing is not actually that dangerous, but I'd still be terrified if I was on this flight
I would absolutely be terrified the entire time. Matter of fact I think I just peed myself.
So glad this landed safely. Just imagine looking out of the window and seeing that engine on fire 700 miles out over the pacific ! Jesus. Respect for the pilots for a safe landing.
Not just the broken engine on fire but also the fear of it loosening and hitting the wing or something, would´ve scared me.
Diarrhea!
My goodness everybody saves, thank you
I hope there might be some mechanism onboard in such scenario to disconnect the fuel supply to that part...any body can explain to me if such system is in place? Thank you
@Arctic Circle You're welcome 🙂. You too.
@Rachael Bakker Thank you Rachael...for your time explaining in such a detail...stay blessed 🙏🙏🌹🌺🌺🌺🌷🌹
Yes there is. It is a called a Fire Engine checklist: Fire Engine Checklist 1. A/T ARM switch - affected side - confirm off (so damaged engine doesn't spool up). 2. Thrust lever - affected side - confirm idle for damaged engine (to cut off power to damaged engine). 3. FUEL CONTROL switch - affected side - confirm CUTOFF (to stop fuel going to damaged engine). 4. Engine Fire Switch - affected side- confirm Pull (cuts off hydraulics on damaged engine side). 5. If the FIRE ENG message stays shown: Engine fire switch - affected side - rotate to stop and hold for 1 second (extinguish detergent released into damaged turbine). If after 30 second the FIRE ENG message stays shown: Engine fire switch- affected side - Rotate to the other stop and hold for 1 second (to release 2nd fire extinguisher into turbine). ******************************************* 6. APU selector - if APU available - START, then ON 7. Transponder mode selector - TA ONLY 8. Plane to land at nearest suitable airport. 9. Do not accomplish the following checklist: AUTOTHROTTLE
THANK GOODNESS THAT NO ONE WAS HURT GOD BLESS. AMEN 🙏 🙏 🙏
Thank God, thank God, thank God!!!! And pilots, the crew! No one should ever have to go through this.
My absolute nightmare here. I guess they *can* fly with one engine. I thought Dad was shining me on.
Poor maintenance, cutting cost, airline industry on it's knees financially - we will see a lot more of this
@Rachael Bakker Then explain the 737 Max...self regulated by Boeing because the FAA was underfunded
Definitely not true. Lots of money goes to ensuring these planes are managed appropriately. Sometimes shit happens.
Biden just called Capt Sully on a job well done!
Me-Ah nooooo ngine failure we are gonna die :( Someone-its a boeing 777 Me-Anyways I was speakin about a butter landing , so yea
Because 777 is pretty new airplane, I'm quite interested, what engines did it have. Was it GE or RR ... This may help a lot for future decisions which flight to take or skip.. .
@mcbure1 one of my friends was the former pilot of this exact aircraft before he retired.
@brad coddington True, my mistake. Engine was pretty old and so was a plane. This one should have been decomissioned few years ago (imo after 20yrs of service)
Sorry... this one was pretty old one. 777-222 - created in cca 1995. IMHO it should have been decomissioned few years ago...
Neither it had P@W engines triple 7s have been around since the early 90's 94 i believe
good thing that happened right after take off and not out 2000 miles over the ocean since it was heading to hawaii
Would have been the same outcome other than they would have flown with one engine for longer.
twin engine still not safe than 4 engine aircraft.
If I understand correctly the engines on planes so expensive that most airlines actually lease them, they don’t have them!
Correct. It's easier to lease the engine from a known and certified supplier than it is to have a massive stockpile of parts and tools. A lot of things are just cheaper done that way. Avionics are another piece of equipment that is easier to just pull the black box and swap with a new one from the supplier. Saves time and money for both the carrier and the passenger.
Mayday, Mayday, we'd like an immediate air turnback , and some toilet paper after landing !!!
MRap mono cock hull
Engine metal fatigue comes to mind.
I’m glad everyone’s OK
Shut down the fuel to the right engine, dump the fuel, land back at Denver airport.
I don't think they even dumped fuel before landing because they had no time to
pilot be like, "engine fire, severe damage or seperation memory item".
It's a miracle that despite extensive damage the engine is still operational. Thanks to the UA crew.
@Rachael Bakker Ohh, so scary.
The engine was cut. The spinning of the turbine is the effect of windmilling.
Nobody would have survived this flight had I been onboard because I would have been shittin’ so violently the passengers would have died from the smell in the cabin!
Right engine failure. Pilot requested left turns. It’s called raising the dead, a right turn would end in tragedy.
Always trained to turn on operating engine.
Nope
United, United....you broke my Boeing aircraft. United, United....some big help you are. You broke it, you should fix it You're liable, just admit it I should've flown with someone else Or gone by car 'Cause United breaks aircrafts. @sonsofmaxwell

baloney
They didn't have their virus test results so the plane was turned around. - Gov. Ige
So why are the 777 still flying??????
I give credit to the person filming this , I would be peeing in my pants
There lucky that this didn’t happen over the water.
@brad coddington True but since it would take more time to land at an airport the more risk something else happens. Luckily they didn’t get far before it happened and landed back at Denver.
All modern jet liners are designed to be able to fly over water with one engine other wise they would have to have more than 2 engines.

Bet some one skipped on the maintenance
Looks like the High Pressure turbine threw a rotor blade. Engine seems still running but vibrating like hell
@Rachael Bakker Roger, thank you
It did have blade damage. At this point the power to the engine was cut and the blade was wind tunneling.
Guess where a jet’s gas tanks are: in the wings!
@Wm. ya so jet fuel is combustible not flammable very big difference between gasoline and fuel oils/jet fuels.
@brad coddington Guess where a jet’s *jet fuel* tanks are: in the wings!
Last time I checked jet engines didn't operate on gas they run on jet fuel a lighter form of diesel fuel kerosene.
why is this video so steady...i would be hyperventilating...
@G what a miser....😀😂
@mcbure1 thank the pilots and engineers, not god
Right!? Lol
they might have a phone with a stabilized camera.
Because the pilots are trained for this and they know what to do and people know that
Oh that would have scared me!!
Yep!!! ??
Luckily it exploded after take off, i don't know what's gonna happen if it explodes above pacific ocean
same thing that happened with this aircraft fly to the nearest safe airport.
Prayer, anyone?
What make were the engines? Rolls Royce or GE? Rolls have had problems.
Neither. Pratt & Whitney
Thank god this was a 777 and the crew was able to keep calm and get everyone back safely.
*airbus
I hate your bus
In this day & age, when everyone has a phone, nothing can be kept secret.
@Walter H Villalta lol there’s more than a lifetime’s worth of NTSB reports on every airplane crash ever reported. Even as a DJI drone remote pilot, FAA rules state that I am still supposed to report any crash of my drone involving property damage or personal injury. How much more open could they possibly get?
@Walter H Villalta well I’m not to sure of that as you can get records for any crash from the FAA.
@Bro Momento - The US government/FAA, they're notorious for trying to keep everything a secret.
What’s trying to be kept secret?
Thanks pilots 😍😍😍
Not Flying United Airlines! That's from poor manteinance!
Don't talk such uninformed rubbish and also learn to spell.
As an aviation geek says: - Luckily, no one was injured
@Mark g No such thing as luck
@mayvb49 I thought this being the case. However having worked 7 years on airport ground crew, eer...lets not name any names.. Let me put it this way. There is public spectacle and company inside spectacle. People who do airplanes tend to have poor sense of humor. Or no humor at all.
If you are too serious, I'll explain. This sentence was from a youtuber called Lucaas, he makes a series of aviation stuff with a famous line "Luckily, no one was injured" to report the incidents
Have you talked to ground crew yet? I wouldnt be so sure...
Never discount luck, but had their luck been better it wouldn’t have happened at all. The real hero’s are the pilots and crew that safely landed the plane with no issues, not lucky, but rather incredibly skilled, trained professionals.
Always keep a change of underwear in carry on.
A nice distraction from Chinavirus.
In that moment you know that everything is los.
Multicultural maintenance?
More wokeness and diversity would have prevented this.
Glad you're safe!
The silent in the cabin is killing me 😱 thank god everything went well...
Trump’s fault.
The flight attendants will be serving free drinks before they land 😂
Once I flew with Lufthansa .. Just when about departing, crew announced a fuel pump issue and repair would take 2 hours, everyone was 'Ohhh No..' Crew then quickly announced that they will start serving free flow wine, and we all were like 'Woohooo !!', and nobody cares for the fuel pump issue.
Wow 😯
🤢🤢🤢
Big shout out to the maintenance Crews that maintain these aircraft. If they don't do their job correctly the Pilot's cannot do their job correctly. Big shout out to the Boeing Engineers who designed the aircraft in case of a failure like this where the airplane can continue to fly.
The cause for this engine malfunction. A tray table was not properly stowed.
Omg I can't imagine if I was on that plane
@ThePanda right lol
You'd be fine and on the ground by now.
The power of engineering
So lucky that didn't happen over the ocean,that would have been a wrap for everybody
@OhioExPax15 Exactly
Wrong all twin engine jets are designed to be able to fly long distances on one engine.
@OhioExPax15 Agreed, though I would say JAL 123 and United 232 are great examples of how difficult it is to control a plane with a total loss of hydraulics. JAL123 had the increased difficulty of having no vertical stabilizer on top of no hydraulics. It is admirable how long that crew managed to keep that plane in the air under those conditions.
@Ituhata maybe not the best example, but Japan Air Lines flight 123 in 1985 stayed airborne for 30 minutes, after it's tail ripped off the aircraft. Years ago, an Aloha 737 lost the front third of the fuselage, but still landed safely in Honolulu. These planes aren't built with Kleenex and spit.
A Boeing 777 has the capability to fly on one engine. With ETOPS (Extended Operations) capability, it's more than likely that the aircraft, one over the Pacific, could have safely diverted to Los Angeles, San Francisco, or if it were close enough, Honolulu. The #1 Engine was shut down, and can fly safely on #2. Either way, it's far more likely the same result would have taken place, only at another airport.
I’ve had dreams lately that I’m on a plane and this happens and the plane starts falling and I wake up all of a sudden 😔
Whoa good thing they diverted because of the smoke - because the explosion 💥 of the engine wasn’t a bothersome 🤦🏼
That is pure Hollywood. Jet fuel does not explode like that, it's not gasoline
HEY GUYS I KNEW SOMETHING LIKE THAT WILL HAPPEN TO A JET ENGINE . I"M GIFTED I SEE EVERYTHING IN MY DREAM . PLZ CHECK MY VIDEO ON IDworlds . THANKS BASS
Hope all is well
Luckily the 777 can fly with a single engine🙏🙏🙏
Every aircraft can fly on a one engine Even on a 737MAX
With both engines gone passengers and crew will be stuck to the sky for all eternity...
With both lost, it can glide.
Might have been a Bird Strike on take off. These GE 90 Turbofan engines have been very reliable over the years. I work on these 777 aircraft since they came out about 25 years ago. They are very reliable and safe aircraft.
Is a PW4000 engine
This is an older 777. I’m pretty sure it uses P&W 4000 series engines.
That's Gods number 🙌🙌🙌🙌
dang
Too many college kids cheating their way through school with all of this access to the internet. They’re not actually learning how to build an airplane?
Ok boomer. This is a 26 year old Boeing 777-200
Delta would never
Sorry, they had an engine failure just two weeks ago.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Don't be idiotic.
BOEING, what is going on??
@Andre P Aircraft are different than automobiles they have many engine manufactures to choose from same goes with heavy trucks. So its the engine manufactures job to repair engines and has nothing to do with Boeing. P&W RR GE are the major jet engine manufactures and they are the ones responsible for the engines not Boeing. RR had a very big issues with the trent 1000 I believe was the engine model a few years back causing the Boeing 787 that had them installed to be grounded but the Boeing 787s that didnt have that same engine installed on them were ok to fly it was RR responsibility to solve the engine issues not Boeing and they were just caught in the middle of a bad situation.
@Andre P No you idiot. Boeing does not make engines they make planes. You can't blame Boeing for a mistake the engine manufacturer made or whoever worked on the engine.
@Andre P remember Boeing made the aircraft except the engines, Am I right or wrong?
@Miguel Barrero not entirely correct, your logic, Miguel: If you car/truck breaks down, you take it back to the car/truck dealer (of that make)....and when the service manager says, it's not our (make's) problem, the busted part is made by XYZ, call them....you'll likely not say 'oh, well....let me take it up with XYZ Corp. ;-)
Is a PW4000 engine made by Pratt and Whitney, is not Boeing's fault
I watched this happened right in front of me. I was riding my bicycle and saw the plane westbound. It started trailing smoke and then flames. As it made 180° turn and headed back east directly overhead the engine exploded and there was a large boom and puff of smoke. I literally thought I might watch it crash right in front of me. Truly frightening to witness.
@CDA SKIER Its not a bad idea to call 911 anyways. If for some reason the communications are cut between the pilots and ATC, that call could potentially help a lot.
I love to fly, and I'm not afraid to get on a plane. But I have nightmares, not about being in a plane crash, but watching one happen in front of my eyes.
@CDA SKIER because they could alert the people below ? Just a thought
I saw your video posted on Twitter, thanks for posting it
“Uaaaaaa...the sky?” Also why would you call 911, like the captain would not contact ATC, and continue his flight to Honolulu. lol
That’s scary
That's not good 😳 hope all are safe and well🙏🏾
My cousins dad’s business got burnt down this summer.
That would be rather disturbing. Glad the pilots managed to land safely.
We lost an engine on our return trip a number of years ago from Honolulu to Oakland. We weren't far out of HNL and it was very scary. But we had a deadheading pilot in the seat behind us. He told us that this kind of thing is what they train for and he appeared not to be concerned at all. That made it better for those of us sitting within earshot. We got back safely and they rounded up another plane & crew and gave everyone free round trip tix for another flight. That's one of the years we were on the airpass and I'm guessing we probably went over 15 times that year.
It's true. They do train for it and have to have the first 5 steps in Fire Engine Checklist memorized to heart.
There has been some controversy going in with Boeing lately...
Boeing did not make this engine. Pratt and Whitney did.
26 years old. It's time United replaces some of their fleet.
It’s the engine not the whole plane lmao.
@OhioExPax15 exactly
You DO KNOW the average life span of most commercial aircraft is about 30 years? These aren't Yugo's. They're made to fly for a long, long time.
wow
😳
I'll be back in Honolulu in about 14 years
Don’t worry I’m sure the airplane will be repaired well before then
Somebody got some 'splainin to do. That there is what we call an uncontained catastrophic engine failure. 😳
@Dark Mice you're a Trump supporter, aren't ya? I'll listen to the COVID experts, thank you very much.
@OhioExPax15 yeah, let's hope they are smarter than the "covid experts" 😏
Let's give the experts a chance to find out what it was first?
🙏🙏🙏
That’ll buff right out.
Good ole Plane Trains and Automobiles John Candy 🤗
Lol
🎩 🎩 off to the great professionalism of the flight Captain and each member of his crew. This is simply a miracle of 2021 in the history of aviation. It’s unbelievable, that the engine caught fires just after takeoff, and the captain still managed to dump the fuel in order to be able to land the aircraft safely! I am sure the wings were full of fuel at takeoff, and yet the aircraft did not get engulfed in fire 🔥😲. Unbelievable! Great job by the flight ✈️ crew. They deserve great rewards!!!
@RIZZI video collection Yes, exactly, the situation did not give them enough time to dump with an engine on fire, and so many lives on board. It was a wise decision to land safely what the captain did!
@Shariq Khan found online article indicating that they did not dump fuel. With indications (likely) that there was fire in the right engine (either sensors or crew/passenger looking out window), my guess is they decided immediate return to airport was prudent course of action. And sadly there is a historical precedent (Swissair flight 111) to make the case for skipping dumping and getting the aircraft on the ground ASAP. Cheers.
@RIZZI video collection I exaggerated a little bit by saying that it would break into pieces; however it would definitely have major structural damages, if the aircraft were not within the MLW limits. And, of course, it was an operational decision of the captain, based on the nature of emergency such as this one, it was a good decision that he used his checklist to land the aircraft without dumping the fuel! Obviously different situations need different decisions giving as much priority to safety performance on time as possible. Saving lives and minimum damages to aircraft, airport installations etc., would always be taken into consideration! I heard the ATC conversation, and there was no mention of dumping the fuel. Anyways, the crew of the aircraft must be rewarded for such a great job done ✅!
@Shariq Khan Incorrect. The 777 is certified for an overweight landing. It will not break into pieces even if overweight - the principal concerns are tires and brakes overheating/bursting which can be a significant risk esp if you have an existing emergency....and popping of rivets or deformation of materials from the excess weight. But dumping is not required and in fact can be against regulations depending on altitude and population below. Pilots flew a pretty direct route back to airport and while they indicated they we working through checklists, they did not state or ask for time to dump fuel. And from the video available, there could have been a decent amount of vibration occurring from the failed engine which would have cautioned getting the aircraft down quickly (although they did pass up the most immediate runway available but perhaps because it was not aligned with the prevailing winds and they had enough control issues with one engine operating at high thrust setting). Details will emerge but i did not see any video showing fuel dumping (777 releases from nozzle about 2/3 of way out the wing - fuel will leave a clear vapor trail).
@Didi Bolter it sucks, and I don't know too much about it, but I always assumed if they release it high enough up it just disperses into the air and we all breathe it in at some point...
SUPER SCARY!I WOULD HAVE TROUBLE FLYING EVER AGAIN AFTER AN INCIDENT LIKE THAT.
@Lhotse44 - Except you started off by stating that that person who was on board a flight that experienced an engine failure would be the safest person to travel with. I was simply saying that was not necessarily correct. The outcome of their first flight in no way modifies the outcome of their next flight. You have the same probability of being struck by lightning the second time as you did the first time. Lightening doesn’t somehow miraculously avoid you once you’ve been struck once. Subtle, but true.
@Shanti You are correct that the probability of the two independent events are the same, but the probability of two independent events occurring are not. This equation P(A&B) = P(A∩B) = P(A)P(B) literally is all you need to understand how probability of two independent events occurring work.
@Syclone0044 You are correct that each independent flip is ½ but when you start doing multiple flips then the probabilities are multiplied together. P(A&B) = P(A∩B) = P(A)P(B) is the formula for probability of two independent events occurring since you've never taken a probability class before. Therefore the probability of hitting the same value on multiple flips from a coin are (½)ˣ where x is the number of flips. So the chances of getting 50 tails in a row is (1/1.1258999e+15).
@Lhotse44- Simply put : Each time you board a flight the probability is the same for an engine failure . Regardless of whether your previous flight experienced an engine failure. In other words: the probability doesn’t miraculously go down because your previous flight had an engine failure.
@Shanti Probability for two independent events A and B occurring is defined as P(A&B) = P(A∩B) = P(A)P(B). Therefore you can see that the probability of someone experiencing two separate engine failures is the square of the probability for one engine failure. Thus if there was a 1/1000 chance of a an engine failure, you would have a 1/1000000 chance of seeing two engine failures. Either you dropped out of probability or never took it at all because this is some chapter 1 type shit.
