Yemeni plane crashes with 150 aboard

I stand corrected re the automatic landing system in place in modern airliners. There hasn't been any outstanding case of an airliner being flown/landed automatically, so I assumed it doesn't exist.

You're right, Rod. No airliner has been landed automatically without pilots onboard or under remote control (a la Buran orbiter?). I mean, there have been commercial airliners converted into remotely piloted drones, but they were for research purposes.

Otherwise, automatic landings are an everyday thing. Especially in airports like Incheon in South Korea and Chinese airports which are prone to fog. Major European airports have autoland certifications because they too are especially fog-prone.

With automatic landing, airplanes can be landed even without the pilots seeing anything outside. But the pilots must monitor the systems closely (their hands are supposed to be on or very close to the controls throughout). Any sign of the automatic approach going awry and the autoflight system is disconnected and the approach abandoned immediately.

In fact, after doing an autoland in zero-visibility conditions, the hardest part of all comes next: finding their way to the terminal.

penigabz, sakto imo agaw nga kining automatic landing kay sa mga dakung erplano lang. Ang mga erplano nga gigamit sa Cebu Pacific ug PAL (Airbus ug Boeing) kay naa na man autoland capability.

airbus nasad........sikat lagi ni ron sige lang ug kahagsa....shift na lang unta sila sa boeing, wapa ko kadungog naaksidente ni sila, naa naba?

Kung naay dakung erplano mahulog, chances are Boeing or Airbus sila kay mao ra man ning duha ka brand sa dakung airliner (except Russian types).

Bago ra naay Boeing 737 nahulog sa Amsterdam. Last year pud naay Boeing 777 nga namatyan ug makina unya ni undershoot sa London. Pero walay namatay.

The recent Airbus crashes (Air France and Yemenia) are unrelated. Totally different circumstances, totally different causes. Coincidental ra ang pagka Airbus.

hadlok na isakay ug plane mao raba plane sa cebu pacific ang mga naka crash...

Walay labot ang Cebu Pacific sa Yemenia airliner crash. A320 gilupad sa Cebu Pacific ug A310 ang sa Yemenia.

Pero inig human sa investigation aning Yemenia, mugawas ra tingali nga walay problema ang erplano.

bitaw one flight attendant pinoy daw.

hahays mao ni akong gi ka hadlokan if ma taymingan na nagsakay ka huhuhuh..

siguro agi ni sa sige tan aw sa natgeo.. air crash investigation...

Ayaw kahadlok bai..bisag asa ka if time na nimo...dedo kalelz

[waelhi1234]

we have to pray all the time for a safe travel.. ;d

[hardlock]

Kung tinuod naay bata naka survive, kuyawa ani sah! basta di pa nimo panahon di gyud diay ka kuhaon...

[haroldjizdeortega]

another one bites the dust.

maayo lag nay survivor ani

[rickflag]

mao nay giingon nga kung dili pa nimo time to go bisan unsa pa kangilngig ang disgrasya di pa gyud ka mamatay unya kung time na pod nimo bisan asa ka pa patay gyud ka. naa koy nailhan nga puerting ka conscious sa diet. dili mokaon ug meat puro fish unya boiled pa gyud dili fried. taud taud nadunggan na lang namo namatay sa urom. it reminds of Final Destination 1.

Boss Rodsky, MY caz told me na basin na jud cguro ning gitawag nato na automatic lannding guide system or whatsoever man gani ang tawag nila ani. Pero ang pag apply lang sa mga commercial airline maoy dakong pangutana kung ma uyon ba sila na e apply ni sa ilang systema. Agaw nako usa ka PMA grad na naka base karon sa Villamor Airbase. usa sad siya sa mga 2005 grad na nadala sa Westpoint for joint Asian-US Military Academy Exchange Cadet program. Hayahay siya kay sa Mc Guire Airforce base siya naka take ug training sa New jersey, didto daw niya nakat-onan na kung inig landing sa usa ka Aircraft ilabi na sa aircraft carrier naay manual Landing na mismo sila mga piloto maoy mo control sa landing, pero kung naa gani mga kakuli-an, kadtong auto landing system nalang daw ang bahala labi na kung gabie ang operation. Even in catapult lunch daw, sit back lang sila then ila e butang ilang righthand sa handgrip sa fighter jet located sa upper right portion sa cockpit then inig lunch sa catapult ug mo abot na ug 60-100 meters from the aircraft carrier then anha na sila mo shift sa manual pilot daw. Wow, what an exciting experience. Hina-ot naa ta ani sa airforce nato. hehehehe Then i hope someday na ma apply na unta ni sa atong mga commercial airlines aron likay jud sa disgrasya o aksidente man gani. Ragarding pud sa Yemeni plane na nahagsa, said a 14-year-old girl survived the crash. And Yemen's embassy in Washington issued a statement saying a young girl survived and was taken to a hospital. It also said five bodies were recovered. Grabeha sa, tagsa ra kaau mahitabo na naay mo survive ug plane crash.

nice assessment though what i see is usually ang mga fighter jet kon mo land sa aircraft carrier they have an arrester hook and folding wing tips or by using a net so that the fighter jet will not exceed the landing space...i dont know if it is possible with commercial airlines and besides fighter jets are smaller compared to commercial planes...
