This is what a blade fracture inside a jet engine can do, shaking an aircraft like a washing machine. In 2017, an AirAsia X Airbus A330-300 suffered a Rolls-Royce Trent 700 fan blade failure caused by metal fatigue. The fractured blade was contained, but the engine sustained severe internal... show more

$FLASHBACK: On April 17, 2018, Southwest Airlines Flight 1380, a Boeing 737-700, suffered an uncontained CFM56-7B engine failure at FL320 after a fan blade fractured due to an undetected low-cycle fatigue crack. The failed blade tore through the engine nacelle, causing parts of the inlet and fan cowl to separate. Debris struck the fuselage and shattered a cabin window, leading to rapid cabin depressurization. One passenger was fatally injured after being partially pulled out of the aircraft, while the crew safely diverted and landed in Philadelphia just 17 minutes later. The NTSB found that the engine fan cowl structure was not designed to withstand the loads generated by this type of fan-blade-out event. The accident prompted major safety changes, including mandatory ultrasonic inspections of CFM56-7B fan blades, reinforced engine nacelle structures, stronger fan cowl latch assemblies, and FAA Airworthiness Directives requiring inspections and modifications across the Boeing 737 NG fleet. Flight SW1380, originated from LaGuardia, New York, and heading to Dallas Love Field, was diverted to Philadelphia.$

The name on one of the crew might ring a bell... June 19 1947: Pan Am Flight 121, a Constellation, crash-lands in Mayadine (Syria). 14 of 36 aboard die. In flight, the #1 engine failed due to a mechanical issue. Attempting to divert to an alternate airport, the #2 engine also failed. The crew made a belly landing in the desert, where the aircraft caught fire. Among the survivors was a dead heading 3rd officer named Gene Roddenberry, who would go on to create the iconic science fiction television series “Star Trek”. This was Roddenbery´s 2nd major plane crash, having survived another major accident during his service in the Pacific Theatre, during WW2 Accident description from ASN (One of many period accidents where an engine failure led to a fatal crash. Nowadays, an engine fail is nearly routine and at worst it causes a diversion...) "The Constellation, named "Clipper Eclipse", was cruising at FL185 when the no. 1 prop had to be feathered due to engine problems. The remaining three engines overheated, forcing the crew to reduced power. This resulted in a gradual descent. The crew elected to continue to Istanbul instead of landing at the nearby Habbaniya RAF Station in Iraq. While descending through FL100 a fire broke out in the engine no. 2 nacelle. A rapid descent was started during which the no. 2 engine separated from the wing. With the left wing on fire a belly landing was carried out in the desert. It appeared the no. 1 engine failure was due to a broken exhaust rocker arm on the no.18 cylinder. The no. 2 engine failure was due to a failure of the thrust bearing which in turn resulted in blocking the passage of oil from the propeller feathering motor to the propeller dome. PROBABLE CAUSE: "The Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was a fire which resulted from an attempt to feather the No. 2 propeller after the failure of the No. 2 engine thrust bearing."

Following the Delta A330-323(N813NW) engine failure after departure from São Paulo (GRU), many are asking: what actually happens if an airliner loses an engine just after takeoff? As passenger in the cabin watching this scenario unfold, the panic is understandable. Seeing flames from an engine is alarming. But this is exactly the kind of scenario pilots are trained for repeatedly in simulators. Modern multi-engine aircraft are designed to fly safely on one engine. In fact, losing one engine is a certification requirement during testing. Here’s what happens: At liftoff, pilots target V2 speed—the minimum safe speed that guarantees the aircraft can continue climbing even with one engine inoperative. If an engine fails: • The MASTER FIRE warning light will illuminate in the cockpit and the fire warning bell will sound, alerting the pilots on the affected engine (they will close the fuel, hydraulic shutoff, and engine bleed air valves, and also discharge the related fire bottle to extinguish the engine fire). Of course, they will be careful NOT TO shut down the wrong engine (this has happened before). • Maximum thrust is applied on the remaining engine. • Rudder input keeps the aircraft straight (countering asymmetric thrust) • The aircraft climbs straight ahead for best performance (turns reduce climb rate unless required) Once above a safe altitude (typically ~1,500 ft / Minimum Flap Retraction Altitude(MFRA): • The aircraft accelerates • Flaps are retracted (“cleaning up”) • Crew assesses the situation and plans a return or diversion Even at very low altitude, the aircraft remains controllable by design. It may not climb aggressively, but it will climb. Bottom line: What looks catastrophic from the cabin is a scenario pilots are highly trained to handle—and aircraft are engineered to withstand. Hope this helps any nervous flyer. Flying is safe, and the chances of this happening have reduced due to lessons learned from previous incidents. And if you ever find yourself in this situation, trust that the pilots will act according to their training—because that’s their job.

ENGINE FAILURE FORCES UNITED B777 BACK TO DULLES AFTER TAKEOFF United Airlines Flight 803, a Boeing 777-200(N78004) bound for Tokyo, safely returned to Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) on Saturday after suffering a loss of power in one engine shortly after departure. The engine issue on takeoff reportedly sparked a small brush fire along the runway, with airport fire crews responding immediately and remaining on scene as a precaution. The aircraft was seen dumping fuel before making an emergency landing back at IAD. There were 275 passengers and 15 crew members on board. No injuries were reported. United confirmed the incident, stating the flight returned shortly after takeoff to address the engine power loss and landed safely. To assist affected passengers, United temporarily closed a United Club lounge at Dulles while working to rebook customers to their destinations. The FAA also confirmed the event, noting that Flight 803 returned to Dulles around 1:20 p.m. local time after experiencing an engine failure during departure. The FAA has opened an investigation.

NEW: Footage shows the moment an individual walked on the Denver airport runway and stood in front of a Frontier Airlines jet. Authorities say the person scaled a fence about two minutes before being struck on the runway. The collision caused an engine fire, and the pilot was forced to stop the plane from taking off. "Runway 17L is closed. I do have limbs on the runway. I believe the aircraft struck an individual," a first responder reportedly said. ABC News reports that the person was "at least partially consumed" by the engine. 12 people on board were injured, and five were taken to the hospital.

UNITED AIRLINES DROPS AIRBUS A350 ORDER AMID ENGINE DISPUTE WITH ROLLS-ROYCE The long-running saga between United Airlines and the Airbus A350 has taken a decisive turn. In its latest SEC 10-K filing, United removed the A350 from its “expected aircraft deliveries,” signaling it no longer plans to take the 45 widebodies that have remained on its books for years. The move follows a high-stakes dispute with Rolls-Royce over a widebody engine purchase and maintenance agreement. At the center is a $175 million commitment payment: United demanded repayment, alleging Rolls-Royce breached the agreement, while Rolls-Royce terminated the contracts, claiming United was in breach. Both parties now assert the other owes damages. This breakdown eliminates the engine framework intended for United’s future A350 fleet. The order has a complex history. In 2009, United ordered 25 A350-900s. In 2013, it increased the order to 35 and converted to the larger A350-1000. By 2017, the airline reverted to the A350-900 and raised the total to 45. For nearly a decade, deliveries were repeatedly deferred. While contractual filings still list 45 A350s scheduled beyond 2027, the “expected deliveries” column now shows zero. This is the clearest sign yet that United’s A350 program is effectively over.

Another ill-fated take-off over V1 (in this case, V2!) June 13 1996: Garuda Indonesia Flight 865, a DC-10, crashes in Fukuoka (Japan) 3 of 275 aboard die. On take-off, the jet had just left the ground when one of the engines failed. Crew opted to reject the maneuver; the aircraft was unable to stop safely and left the runway: landing gear collapsed, and the airplane caught fire. Inquiry noted pilot actions by aborting takeoff above V1, where SOP dictated pilots should have continued takeoff and deal with the engine later. More info below from Aviation Safety Network – Aftermath video is from Aircrashdaily (go give them a follow on YouTube) “The DC-10 accelerated for takeoff. The nose was raised, and at a speed of 158 kts, the first officer called "Rotate". It was 12:07:40. Three seconds later, at a radio altitude of 9 feet, a fan blade of the 1st stage HP turbine from the no. 3 engine separated. The N1 dropped to 23,7% within a few seconds. At 12:07:45, the flight engineer called "Engine failure number one." Takeoff was aborted at about the V2 speed, and the airplane contacted the runway one second later at a vertical acceleration force of 2.1 Gs. The thrust reversers were deployed and ground spoilers were extended. The DC-10 skidded off the runway through a ditch, fence and a road, before coming to a halt 620 m past the runway threshold. Investigation revealed that the turbine blade that failed, had operated for 30913 hours and 6182 cycles. General Electric had advised customers to discard blades after about 6000 cycles. Accident cause Although the Aircraft was well in excess of V1 and the aircraft had already lifted off from the runway, the takeoff was aborted. Consequently, the aircraft departed the end of the runway, came to rest and caught fire. It is estimated that contributing to the rejection of the takeoff under this circumstance was the fact that the CAP's judgement in the event of the engine failure was inadequate."

21 year old U.S. Navy Sailor John Bridges is sucked into jet engine intake of an A-6E Intruder preparing to take off from USS Theodore Roosevelt in the Persian Gulf on February 20, 1991 during Operation Desert Storm. Bridges miraculously survived as his helmet, coat, and goggles were sucked into the engine moments before himself. Bridges was able to wedge his arm and feet against the walls of the intake just inches from the fan blades of the engine. The pilot immediately shut the engine down which took a full three minutes to wind down completely. Bridges is pulled out of the intake with a broken collarbone, ruptured eardrums, and some scrapes. He did not return to the flight deck for some time.

So when she got a check engine light literally a mile down the road and a few days later it wouldn’t start. So she calls the guy and tried to get him to replace the battery and the check engine light. He claims that he would look at it for $150. So the guy just sold her a car riddled with problems as is but claims it would pass inspection, and the buyer seems to have an issue understanding what an as is sale it. But shouldn’t he still fix it for her as he claimed it would pass inspection?

Several people have messaged me about the Fire Dept getting dispatched to Columbia Metro shortly after 7pm for an aircraft emergency so here’s the ATC tapes of what happened with a little explainer below. An American Airlines regional carrier (PSA Airlines) operating flight 5108 from Reagan National (Callsign Blue Streak 5108) was on final approach and they received an EICAS message for “inop steering” so they broke off the approach at 7:04pm and went out and held while they worked through the issue. EICAS = Engine-Indicating and Crew-Alerting System (think of this as the check engine light on your car, but a bit more advanced bc it will tell you what the issue is.) At 7:17pm they were done working the issue and advised they were ready to come back to the airport. The airport had emergency equipment standing by just in case there was an issue and at 7:28pm they touched down and rolled off one of the high speed taxiways and originally waited for airport ops to provide a tug to tow them to the gate, but the flight crew was able to use some differential thrust (using thrust from one engine to steer the aircraft) and they were able to safely get to the gate with no further issues. Shortly after 7:30pm airport ops had completed a fod check on runway 11/29 and advised everything was good and to show the runway back open. Fod = foreign object debris. Basically they checked to make sure the aircraft didn’t lose any parts when it landed. In the end it was about a 30 min delay but no one was hurt and everything is all good.

EICAS = Engine-Indicating and Crew-Alerting System (think of this as the check engine light on your car, but a bit more advanced bc it will tell you what the issue is.) At 7:17pm they were done working the issue and advised they were ready to come back to the airport. The airport had emergency equipment standing by just in case there was an issue and at 7:28pm they touched down and rolled off one of the high speed taxiways and originally waited for airport ops to provide a tug to tow them to the gate, but the flight crew was able to use some differential thrust (using thrust from one engine to steer the aircraft) and they were able to safely get to the gate with no further issues. Shortly after 7:30pm airport ops had completed a fod check on runway 11/29 and advised everything was good and to show the runway back open. Fod = foreign object debris. Basically they checked to make sure the aircraft didn’t lose any parts when it landed. In the end it was about a 30 min delay but no one was hurt and everything is all good.

Putting todays launch beside the previous one the most important thing is the acceleration slows down and stops just like an engine shutdown. This isn't communications loss. There's a slight speed advantage on todays launch which might indicate it was lighter (or it might just be down to dubious telemetry timing). But if it were slightly lighter due to lower propellent then it would explain why it might shut down the engine early.

Meta was testing its Muse Spark 1.1 AI model in a sandbox environment, isolated from the outside world. The objective was simple: detect vulnerabilities, remain contained, and report findings. A misconfiguration by an external vendor created a breach. The model exploited it, accessed the Internet, and modified a company's internal systems. No human had ordered it to do so; it simply found a way to carry out the action. Meta confirmed the breach this week. The name of the third-party vendor was not disclosed. The sandbox environment was intended to serve as a safety net. It failed to fulfill that role.

Cathay Pacific A330 aborts its takeoff in Kaohsiung after a loud bang and what appeared to be flames from one of the aircraft’s engines. A video posted on Facebook of the incident shows the airplane suddenly decelerate after a bang is heard and a flash of flame is seen coming out of one of its engines. The aircraft veers off course slightly before correcting and safely taxiing back to the terminal. A Cathay Pacific spokesperson said CX431 was aborted “due to an engine technical problem”. The spokesperson apologized for the inconvenience that may have been caused by the incident, and said safety is a priority for the airline.
