Correction on my earlier post. 🛑 This wasn't a Boeing pre-delivery acceptance flight. N705DN is a former Delta 777-200LR, converted to freighter by Mammoth Freighters. Jetran owns it. The low pass was an unsanctioned send-off over their Horseshoe Bay base. It was not a test profile. Flightradar24 confirmed the aircraft got to approximately 0 feet AGL at its lowest point. The pilot then banked right. Wingtip came within feet of the ground. FAA will investigate. Context was wrong. The correction matters more than the original post.
An extremely low pass! Yes. That B777F low pass over Texas wasn't a stunt. It was a pre-delivery acceptance flight. Boeing flies a B-1 check: systems, avionics, flight controls. Then a customer C-1 flight with Qatar's reps aboard. The 777F runs on GE90-110B1 engines. 110,000
@CraigSutila Good drop. The critical detail: the FAA doesn't have to prove anyone was actually harmed, only that the actions could have created danger. The pilot doesn't need to have hurt anyone. The FAA just needs to show the potential was there. It was there. Thanks for sharing.
Update on Maiquetia Airport. 🚫 Still closed. No official structural assessment released yet. This matters more than people realize. We know the terminal ceiling came down. We've seen footage. What we don't know is the condition of the runway, the taxiways, the ATC tower, the navigation systems, and the fuel infrastructure. In maintenance, we don't condemn an aircraft because one system failed. We isolate. We inspect each system independently. We clear them one by one before anything moves. I hope that's exactly what's happening at Maiquetia right now. Unfortunately, about 188 people confirmed dead. Power and telecoms not fully restored. And the airport, the only serious gateway for relief operations into Caracas, is sitting in a queue waiting for someone to sign it back into service. That signature matters. You don't rush it. Even when people are dying on the other side of it.
Maiquetia Airport is closed after two earthquakes hit Venezuela minutes apart. 7.2 then 7.5. Same day. I hope everyone is okay. Most people are asking what the damage looks like. I'm asking what the inspection schedule looked like before this. Airports are certified
The Airbus A380 is insane. ❤️ 📹: airplanehuntar
@ALOneStarA Approximately 0 feet AGL means the aircraft was somewhere between ground contact and about 12 feet up. The ADS-B data can't be more precise than that.
@jadamzs Exactly. The optics alone are damaging.
@ItsWitt This specific tail appears to have been sold to Qatar Airways.
@EchoOscarOscar Yes, there is. And it brings a special kind of peace.
20 miles into the Brooks. A loud noise. A crash landing. And two drilling workers in a helicopter who didn't have to stop but did. Pilot Louie put that aircraft down and everyone walked away. I'd say skill, composure, and a lot of grace all at once. The rescuers weren't even emergency services. They were just two men who saw a need and had a helicopter. Remembering that.
A passenger shared a video showing what it was like to survive a plane crash in Alaska, and it proves that there is still so much good left in humanity. The journey began in Fairbanks with a stop in Coldfoot before continuing to Anaktuvuk Pass. There were nine passengers and one
An extremely low pass! Yes. That B777F low pass over Texas wasn't a stunt. It was a pre-delivery acceptance flight. Boeing flies a B-1 check: systems, avionics, flight controls. Then a customer C-1 flight with Qatar's reps aboard. The 777F runs on GE90-110B1 engines. 110,000 lbs of thrust each. Max takeoff weight of 347 tonnes. The world's longest-range twin-engine freighter. At test weight with no freight aboard, it floats. Every aircraft you've flown on went through this process. Of course, the paperwork will not be filmed. They film the low pass. Now you know. x.com/ebaviation/sta…
@A465948 Corrected. 45 seconds. Which makes it worse, not better. 45 seconds is not enough time for a structure to recover. It's barely enough time for a person to stand up.
Maiquetia Airport is closed after two earthquakes hit Venezuela minutes apart. 7.2 then 7.5. Same day. I hope everyone is okay. Most people are asking what the damage looks like. I'm asking what the inspection schedule looked like before this. Airports are certified structures. They have maintenance programs, just like aircraft, with scheduled inspections, structural integrity checks, and documentation. The difference is aircraft get grounded the moment something is flagged. Buildings stay open until they fall. The second quake did the most damage. It wasn't just stronger, but it hit a structure the first quake had already compromised. The fatigue had accumulated, then collected all at once. We call that in maintenance a hidden failure mode. The first event weakens the system. The second event reveals what was already broken. Venezuela lost an airport today. But the real question isn't structural; it's cultural. Who was responsible for the last inspection? Was it done? Was it documented? Did anyone flag what they found? A collapsed ceiling in an airport doesn't make for a natural disaster story alone. It's a maintenance story that nature finished. x.com/srahalh/status…
@Chuqu_Mah Give them the roses now. The eulogy version doesn't reach them.
@onu_slim Every generation thinks it's the first one to discover the future. That's usually when the cycle starts again.
Every aviation debate in Nigeria eventually becomes a debate between regulators and operators. The mechanic is never in the room. But the mechanic is the last line between a maintained aircraft and an unmaintained one. When financial pressure builds at the top, it doesn't stay there. It travels down. And it arrives in the hangar without a memo; deferred maintenance decisions. Parts procurement delays. Delayed salaries. The quiet compromises that happen when an operator is cash-stressed. If you want to know what economic stress does to aviation safety, don't ask the boardroom. Ask the hangar. #aviation

These are the actual aircraft systems keeping us alive at 35,000 feet. 😭😳✈️
Why planes use 1.3M Rivets instead of welding.
