I’m sorry I just had to give a second reply to this moron: “your face”, YOU’RE AN IDIOT WHO FAILS AT LIFE! Thank you for your time, now leave failblog and don’t ever return.
Pieces falling off of airplanes isn’t as rare as you might think. In fact, it happens every day. You just don’t hear about it because the parts rarely hit anybody, and the airlines have no desire to admit that fact.
It’s just the cowling; the engines themselves are still in perfect working order. (You still don’t want to fly like that for long, but they would still last long enough to land under power.)
ever heard of swept back wings? picture is no Fake, real incident happend, Aircraft Type was an Airbus A320
NTSB Identification: ATL04IA156
Scheduled 14 CFR Part 121: Air Carrier operation of Ryan International Airlines, Inc. (D.B.A. AirTran Airways)
Incident occurred Tuesday, July 13, 2004 in Atlanta, GA
Aircraft: Airbus Industrie A320-233, registration: N951LF
Injuries: 110 Uninjured.
Dude Ryan Air planes are so fucking rickety…this doesn’t surprise me at all. I flew in one on my way to Spain from London 2 years ago and I was terrified the whole entire time.
Not a real fail, as the image as arrived here. So the camera didn’t crash, so the plain didn’t crash, the guy who took the photo didn’t crash, and was able to arrive safely at home, save the photo to his computer, and then upload it…
Real win of security in aviation… Even if the maintenance is not the appropiate!!!
Actually the guy that took this picture did die. He was so amazed to be alive that he was jumping for joy and fell through that little gap between the loading ramp and the plane.
The next of kin felt it would be good to upload the pictures found on his camera, which led to this one finding its way here.
It’s not a fake picture, and it wasn’t a catastrophic FAIL. The pilot declared an emergency, turned around, and landed without further incident. If this were a real aviation FAIL, the picture would have been destroyed in the crash. If anything, that this was not-a-FAIL should make you comfortable flying.
A plane left London to take people to Los Angeles. About an hour after take-off, the pilot says on the intercom “I’m sorry, but one of our engines has stopped working. We’ll be fine, but our journey will take another hour. I apologise for the delay”.
Two hours later, the people inside heard a noise outside. Then on came the intercom… “I’m sorry, another engine has failed but we can still run on two engines. The journey will take another two hours, I apologise for the delay.”.
The intercom came on again after a few peaceful hours. “We appear to have lost another engine…” The pilot sounded slightly worried. “We are still able to fly with a single engine, but we will be able to make it to America. It will delay us by three hours, I apologise for the delay.”.
One of the chavs on the plane turned to his girlfriend and said (in garbled English) “Hey, if we lose one more engine we’ll be up here all day!”.
And that was “Shecky” Mc Gillis everybody!!!!!!Now, stay in your seat here comes the greatest ventriloquist around……Arnie Hootenanny and his pal “Beans Mc Coy”!!!!
^^^
That r teh fail. In the report it says the plane was a A320 or an A321.
The engines don’t look like that. They aren’t mounted forward of the wing. They’re mounted under the wing. Duh!
Please, God, never let me see something like that in person.

That musta been a punk to get down, I’m studying engineering now in university and the change in weight and aerodynamics must have made landing that REALLY fun. Also, reading the NTSB report makes me cringe a bit. Anyone remember the DC-10’s whose doors wouldn’t close properly and would cause catastrophic decompression during flight? Or how about the plane whose engine was torn off the wing at takeoff, flipped over the wing, crashed into the runway, and caused the plane to tilt to the left and crash about 30 seconds into takeoff, nearly wiping out a trailer park full of people? Was especially fun when they went back over emergency procedure protocol and found not only that the emergency actions the pilots were told to take didn’t help the plane, but that the power for the sensors and controls they needed to successfully attempt said emergency procedures were supposed to be supplied by the missing engine.
The airline industry has a LOT of fail in it. But it’s like, one fail in every 75,000 flights, and some fails, like this one, aren’t necessarily catastrophic loss of life fails. Where as there are deadly car fails every day. Or the not-so-fails, like the truck that dumped Oreos on the interstate!
You must watch Seconds From Disaster a lot. both of those were featured. I don’t remember the details of the first, but the reason the engine flipped over the wing of the second was that they took a shortcut forklifting the engine into place and ended up breaking the pylon attaching it.
1st
FAIL!!!
“welcome onboard the about-to-fail-plane”
Can you say, “HOLY SHIT!!!!!!” ?
HOLY SHIT!!!!!!
that would scare the piss outta me….O.o
i would be shitting my pants right abou then
yes, dora! in fact, I can!
HOLY SHIT!!!!!!
Fail-plane Airlines – Virgin Trip.. First and Last.. See yo-.. no wait.. Bye!
Why are chapbooks a good thing or not a good thing? ,
n3xt
This is what airplanes do when the engines get hot. There is nothing wrong with the engine
Yeah, and when the engines are too hot, they just drop from the wing to prevent the fire from propagating. Everybody knows that.
Uhm.. No, they stall. they dont just break off- or you’d have pieces of plane falling left and right all the time. Think about it- and then you fail.
recognizing sarcasm fail
OWNED
I’m sorry I just had to give a second reply to this moron: “your face”, YOU’RE AN IDIOT WHO FAILS AT LIFE! Thank you for your time, now leave failblog and don’t ever return.

WHAT????
No sir, that is a structural engine FAILure.
It’s just the cowling; the engines themselves are still in perfect working order. (You still don’t want to fly like that for long, but they would still last long enough to land under power.)
yer an idiot …. thats what happens when ya dont latch the cowling latches properly
first
you failed
FLAWLESS VICTORY
FATALITY!!!!
KUNG LAO, WINS!!!
OMFG, I’d shit my pants. Total fail.
made in China Fail
Dang. Closest I’ve gotten to first.
First base?….
… with his sister?
No, w/ur mom.
Does mom + sister = close enough to count?
Depends if they’re the same woman or not.
Score!!!!!
I don’t want to insult anyone, but isn’t that normal for Alabama?
Yes.
*loling*
yeah thats not good
WIN!
Little boxes in boxes!
WoW you fail
of reply boxes
as you was saying
look at allll the little boxes!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!
Fail Boxes
Ehrk…that could not have been fun for those who were on that plane…nor for the people that lived where that part must have fallen down…ouchies…
Yeah, whoever was sitting in that seat is supposed to say “Excuse me stewardess, but theres something wrong with that engine on the wing!!”
ummm… fake?? no WING??
Jet engine is projecting forward on it’s mounting. This is a pretty famous pic, but I forget what aircraft it is from. I think and older one.
Is your brain in your skull or in a pickle-jar?

“Ryan International Airlines”….There’s your problem then.
lol its another company named after me!!!!
omgz epic fail here.
Dude Ryan Air planes are so fucking rickety…this doesn’t surprise me at all. I flew in one on my way to Spain from London 2 years ago and I was terrified the whole entire time.
no its real. it happened to me once. scared the sh!t outta me.
Dang, that’s one f@cked up fail, especially taking into account my fear of flying 0_o

Hahahahaha.
You made that up.
plain?
spelling fail
Doubt it. On the later Boeing 7-series, the nacelles are slightly ahead of the wing, so you wouldn’t be able to see them in this picture.
It’s an Airbus. YOU FALE
Correct spelling of the word the entire blog is devoted to FAIL
Is it a fail if you see your employer advertising on failblog?
That depends…were they advertising an upcoming job opening?
No Wing? LOL. Never looked at an airplane I see.
It gives a new meaning to “Zero wing”.
I think that’s from the Worth1000 “vacation bloopers” photoshop contest.
I think your brain was photoshopped in.
Air cooling win…

Here’s the NTSB report on the incident:
http://ntsb.gov/ntsb/GenPDF.asp?id=ATL04IA156&rpt=fi
“The captain felt the airplane “shutter,”"
That explains at least one that airline’s problems. Their planes have shutters.
Oh dear God! I am pretty sure if that was my seat I would have personally pood my pants!
As opposed to someone else pooing your pants for you?
Use of “personally” fail.
Nice!
much more quality of photo fail!!
lol looks like one of those starwars racers
Hell no.. I would’ve freaked out on that one.
oh sheetttt…
made in china indeed!
r you made in china
Wings are never outsourced to any company. Neither Boeing nor AirBus will ever outsource their wings, so they cannot be ‘made in China’
Get your facts right, imbecile.
Arent you chinese? >.<

okay. That is FAIL. I don’t care if you get to the ground or not – no, wait, I do care.
i love the NTSB report. Hmm… I don’t remember if I latched the cover closed or not…
They haven’t made a plane yet that wouldn’t get to the ground eventually…
Ehh… at least the engine is still on the wing and not in someone’s backyard…. thats happened too as I recall…

You should go pray in the God vs. Satan thread.
God vs Satan? Sounds interesting.
OMG!! I always thought the interior of a Jet engine must look pretty fascinating… But definitely NOT at 15000 something feet.
Oceanic Flight 815 l0l xD
so fake
Go die. Now.
And you wonder where the “Discount” carriers take that extra ticket cost from?
Important maintenance.
Enjoy your AirTrash flight.
Mhm, nice! That’s another reason not to enter a plane!
(cue Twilight Zone theme)
Was the picture taken by William Shatner?
“There was a gremlin on the wing! I swear!!”
I was hoping someone would make a Twilight Zone reference XD
Black Box WIN!

Trying to show how smart he is Fail.
I’m studying, yada yada…FAIL
Succinct comment FAIL
The true fail here is that a flight NEARLY took out a trailer park.

Looks like a reverser tried to delpoy in flight? Not good at all. I’d be trying to screw all the passengers around me at this point.
RYANAIR OF COURSE!
first
fly me, crash me, rape me like u raped that dead baby!
shaddap, emo. tell it to that sheep you’re ‘dating’.
61st
WIN!
loser
More like, Twilight Zone WIN!!

ОН SHI–
manufacture fail…
aviophobia win!!!
If I saw this it would be BOWELS FAIL.
Wow, their hands weren’t even shaking when they took that pic! Photographer win!
Turbulence WIN!
That is an Airbus A320 family plane, using the IAE engines which are more forward-swept than the CFM ones which are under the wings.
Knowledge Fail! above for all…
I wonder why the engine temp light went out?
Theres, something on the wing, its, eating the motor….
That’s what the shades on the windows are for…
I don;t know about you, but that would make me a tich nervous…
This is a Photoshop, made for a worth1000 competition
FAIL to read previous posts.
FAIL to discern fact from fiction.
That’s two F’s. See me after class.
I’d shit my pants it it happens to me :O
thats so scary, omg i woulda shit myself completely
steampunk win.
no, jetpunk.
OMG I’d freak the hell out if i saw that!
Don’t search on google how a jet engine works because it’s much more complex than that.
Quantas??
I think this should be a WIN because the engine is cooling.
That would scare the hell out of me!!!!
ya know they should really check for gremlens at security
Shoop shooop!
Its clearly a podracer that had its cover taken off to make it look cooler than it really is…
It worked
true story- check snopes, doubting thomas.
AirTran=FAIL!!!
that aint real! my dad used to have a job where he had the software to do things like this!
