The plane lost all right side hydraulic pressure. It flew that way and landed
fine but when waiting for a tug at the gates the brakes went out. I was at the
airport that day.
Aviation geek requesting permission to flame. Permission granted. A plane like this has three hydraulic lines, each of which goes to every hydraulic mechanism in the plane. It would have lost all hydraulics, not just one side. Three airliners have lost all hydraulics before. One was a Japan Air Lines Boeing 747-100SR operating flight 123. It crashed into a mountain with one survivor out of the 520 people on board. Another was a United Airlines McDonnell Douglas DC-10-10(yes, yes, I know. This plane is extremely dangerous.) operating flight 232. Its #2 engine’s fan disk exploded in flight and severed all three hydraulic lines in the tail. The plane could only turn right. The crew used differential thrust to control it. They lined up with runway 22 at Souix Gateway Airport perfectly, but the plane banked right about 3 seconds before landing and it crashed. 185 out of the 296 on board survived. The third one was a DHL Airbus A300F4-600 carrying soldiers’ mail out of Baghdad. It was hit with a missile after takeoff and lost all hydraulics. This one actually managed to land safely with no casualties and no hydraulics, making it the only airliner to do so.
What a atrange coincidence. I was just reading the comments to an old post (the dog raping the Wii kid), and there the same PENIS!!! showed up! How extraordinary.
An old insult U.S. Naval Aviators use against their U.S. Air Force counterparts refers to their respective methods of mid-air refueling. Navy planes have a refueling probe that is inserted into a receptacle reeled out from the tanker, while USAF planes get “stuck” by a refueling boom that lowers out of the tanker.
I suspect the pilot may have overshoot a tiny bit on his approach, or could possibly have forgot flaps. Minor details.
We women pilots never do that you know.
Lol! That reminds, I have to try posting that pic I got before. I was reading a news story about people in parliament trying to ban nudity at public beaches or something and at the very bottom was a quote from a minister saying “what will be next, banning breastfeeding?” Directly to the right of the quote was the link to the top news story “breastfeeding photos banned on facebook”. I still have the screenshot, but when I tried to post it last time it never showed up on the voting page.
*check lists*
There is one vacancy for the bondage loving sheep position. I hope you don’t mind spending several hours on your fours inside a furry disguise.
My apologies, but I’m kind of curious as to what fail this
was on, seems to be quite a story. If anybody would care to give me that link… I’ve been away from fails for too long, I was almost going
into withdrawals.

Bored, if you click my name it should take you to the recipe.
If it doesn’t, you’ll have to reveal all on the recent ambulance comments and it’s down near the bottom.
Brothers playing fire trucks in the driveway. One brother holds the other down by the head and *poot* right on him. Have seen this many times before, never ends well.
“Good morning, this is your captain speaking. We have some…ummm….technical issues this morning and we are going to be at the gate for just a tad longer until we get the…uhhhhh…problem resolved. On behalf of everyone here at NWA we like to thank you for flying with us today. We know you have choice in air travel and we are sure after you figure out whats going on you’ll certainly never choose us again…..I mean, we HOPE you choose us again.”
I always thought that having the guys with the flashlights pointing the planes which way to go was a bit pointless. I guess this is what happens when that guy goes on break…
I think I might know what’s going on in this photo…You know how if you lose a contest to an older sibling or friend, they might decide to pin you to the ground and sit on or near your head and fart to rub it in? I think this might be the plane equivalent…
Damn youngins and their lack of appreciation for decent engineering. I suppose you like yer A-380s and yer DA-42s and yer carbon fibre composits…no respect, I tell ya.
I was coming back to Minneapolis from a business trip the day this happened, and saw this scene out a window as I went by on the moving walkway — they’d been stuck a few hours at that point.
If you search minneapolis airport planes collision on Google, you’ll get the full story. Hydraulics failure of the smaller plane or something.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your captain speaking, we have now successfully arrived in the tail end of Northwest Airlines Flight 123, where the time is 5 minutes before I get fired.”
There once were two airplanes
that were not quite totally sane.
And they discovered they could
sleep with a male plane.
Now they’re having butt sex.
Airplane butt sex.
At least it’s not a truck going under a bridge.
And possibly why you shouldn’t let Dr Dre pilot a plane.
This is how baby planes are made. C’mon, people, it’s just nature.
… though Protestant planes may choose to use air traffic control.
lol!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~~~
nice comment with the baby planes
Smartass response — WIN!
ftw
win.
you seem to be the only person who picked up on the NWA connection.
The judges would’ve also accepted Snoop Dog as a Soul Plane ref.
or Ministry.
how did they manage this
The plane lost all right side hydraulic pressure. It flew that way and landed
fine but when waiting for a tug at the gates the brakes went out. I was at the

And it was Ice Cube driving, not Dr Dre.

PENIS!!!
that’s just plane rude.
And rudderly disgraceful
wow, you totally missed the pun there…
Apparently you didn’t get his pun…
lmfao
What a atrange coincidence. I was just reading the comments to an old post (the dog raping the Wii kid), and there the same PENIS!!! showed up! How extraordinary.
*strange
Apparently PENIS!!! gets around.
You have to look out for the PENIS!! as it will pop up at the most inopportune times.
Well, the PENIS mightier than the sword — a fact that got me giggling uncontrollably when I first (mis)read that in high school english.
Sorry, but you are not fooling us, we know that you are not the real k-k-k-katy.
Plane sex actually doesn’t involve a penis
I was doing it wrong?
No…it involves those mid-air refueling hoses, though.
An old insult U.S. Naval Aviators use against their U.S. Air Force counterparts refers to their respective methods of mid-air refueling. Navy planes have a refueling probe that is inserted into a receptacle reeled out from the tanker, while USAF planes get “stuck” by a refueling boom that lowers out of the tanker.
Man…everyone thinks it’s a bad thing to be the “stickee” rather than the “stickER”.
I suspect the average fighter pilot thinks so.
Hmm. Good point.
point goes in, point goes out, point goes in, point goes out…..
But it does involve landing gear.
boom… headshot!
*falls over dead*
*notices dead blancmange on floor – gets spoon*
NOooooooo! Don’t eat the moomin!!!
*revives Mikey*
*the SQUEEZES him*
Eeep!
I had such a weird dream that I was a blancmange playing tennis, and then a scotsman won wimbledon.
Hey, you should make that into a sketch!
Fröst!
You think this was weather related?
The plane skidded on a patch of black ice. Everyone, including the cameraman and people reading failblog, was killed. It was tragic.
But I’m wearing my seatbelt!
I thought that was from Lou strapping you down yesterday?
No, Wednesday is bondage day. Yesterday was condiments.
I thought Wednesday was ‘anything could happen day’? So you could decide there and then.
That was last month. I have to rotate the schedule or Lou gets bored.
Bored is not the word I’d use for describing how I get when you are involved.
I thought Lou enjoyed getting bored? Doesn’t he do trepanning anymore?
Shhh…. I’m saving that for his birthday.
Why do I always miss Bondage Day???
You shouldn’t tie yourself down to just the one fetish.
I hope you’re not using furry logic!
It’s easy to get roped in.
That’s knot funny.
But hard to get back out.
I’m bound to get the hang of it.
As long as they don’t just string you along.
You mean they might just be feeding me a line?
sounds like you’ve cottoned on to them.
Yep, it’s all strapped-up.
I must have been blind folded not to see it.
They pulled the wool over your eyes.
Let’s not resort to fisticuffs, okay?
No fisticuffs??? that’s bound to take some of the fun out of it though.
They need to show a little restraint.
And my tray table is up and my seat is in the full upright postition!!!
But you didn’t have your tray table up in the full upright position.
Pffft. Women pilots.
She’s used to driving stick.
SEXISTS! >:(
Yay third
correct placement, but your post didnt make me laugh… Fail
SECOND! BEEEYITCH!
I didn’t know they nursed their young.
its not nursing, its cuddling.
.
how does this even occur, was the pilot drunk or giving birth??
both
If only they required you to undertake some form of study, or get a license, to operate an aircraft…-_-
They do, but years of ATP training is no match for a few tequilas.
I suspect the pilot may have overshoot a tiny bit on his approach, or could possibly have forgot flaps. Minor details.
We women pilots never do that you know.
This is at the gate, not the runway.
I didn’t even know they display…
Maybe they’re just displaying?
Yes they do, and this picture was banned from Facebook.
Lol! That reminds, I have to try posting that pic I got before. I was reading a news story about people in parliament trying to ban nudity at public beaches or something and at the very bottom was a quote from a minister saying “what will be next, banning breastfeeding?” Directly to the right of the quote was the link to the top news story “breastfeeding photos banned on facebook”. I still have the screenshot, but when I tried to post it last time it never showed up on the voting page.
It’s the Facebook maffia, they’re everywhere.
*Looks around suspiciously*
-stares- -smiles slightly-
*boop!*
*winks* –
…. or not. still, everyone will read this. IM FAMOUS! FAAAAAAMOUS I TELL YOU!
fail on design
I always wondered how big planes made little planes. Awkward.
Get a hangar!
Getting a hanger would finally cure my priapism!
I can think of a better treatment, and it involves Ryannon.
I hope it’s nothing similar to what happened to her ex.
czuhc, do you like movies about gladiators?
Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?
Have you ever seen a grown man naked?
Have you ever had that strange feeling that you’ve lived through something before?
Have you ever noticed that this is a C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER?!
??? I am making a thousand associations now (Tony Curtis and Charlton Rifleton sharing a bath also passing by), but still don’t get it.
I think you picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.
You just want me to have an abortion.
Can you blame me? My last boyfriend cheated on me, and I can’t be sure the baby I’m carrying is his.
Are you sure it’s yours?
Hmm, probably should be searching more along the line of dismembering, right ?
Nothing cures priapism! NOTHING! You are doomed! DOOMED I tell you!
Priapism envy?
Priapism envy is a hard one to quit.
And here we have the first sighting of a passenger plane giving birth to a plane cub. Extraordinary scenes..
Wait, is it sex or birth? Confusing…
Sex. Pretty sure I can see that young plane’s pecker.
*crosses Zurack off the list of orgy guests*
Does this mean there is a vacancy now?
The runway’s slippery when wet.
Bow-chicka-bow-wow.
*check lists*
There is one vacancy for the bondage loving sheep position. I hope you don’t mind spending several hours on your fours inside a furry disguise.
Wouldn’t that require a pet carrier?
*measures Czuhc*
Lou, don’t forget to call the caterer and confirm the honey, whipped cream and zucchinis.
Everything will be delivered on time. I also checked both the boxes “I want extra potatoes” and “I want a joint” in the cateter’s online form.
Your joint is perfect for me, but you can get an extra for the guests if you like.
Many of them would prefer some mushrooms.
* adds to checklist: reload camcorder batteries *

And the award for most generic comment goes to…
me?
Original…
…Recipe
Extra crispy.
1 herb, 10 spices
I chamois, infinite uses.
ShamWow, Olympic uses.
1 set of handcuffs, 2 willing participants, 3 toys, infinite possibilities!
*counts on fingers*
I only come up with 42?
*counts on my fingers* man i just keep getting 8… how are you getting to 42?
We don’t mention that. Sssssssssh.
*waves at B2th*
No, we’re not talking about you.
He’s counting the unwilling participants.
Dont forget each persons appendages.
i have 42 fingers… not all of them are mine though…
I could have sworn it’s:
“1 set of handcuffs, 2 toys, 3 willing participants, infinite possibilities!”
Well, whoever crashed that should get fired. Plane and simple -ba-dum-tish!
Congratulations, it’s a….. Northwest!
It really is quite impossible to land a plane with the airstrip being crowded with ambulances and firetrucks.
Awesome
I totally agree if I see one more truck hitting a bridge/low branch/low object or anything else Im gonna Fail the server for fun.
Heh and I’m on free Wi-Fi at the airport. If this happens to me, I’ll make sure to relate all the gory details.
It’s very awkward when the planes try to join the mile high club, too.
Jesus Christ, a mile high? Where is this airport!?
Denver……………….
I think that’s a farce, Denver is only 5,279 ft ASL.
(5,281 actually, but for the purposes of failblog it’s 5,279 mmmmk, thanks)
Um, coming from the man who measures soy sauce by the cup, I’m thinking you’re not to be counted on where measurements are concerned.
I corrected that mistake, read the thread….I was tired and full. Cut me some slack.
I saw your lame-o correction, Mr. Day-Late. Unfortunately, it was after I followed your recipe, and now my ankle-strap sandles won’t close.
lol.
Adding insult to injury?
Nice one!
That is one thing she does well, that and bloh! would you look at that over there.
Listen big talker, soy sauce and altitude weren’t the only things you measured incorrectly. You’re lucky I’m so sweet-natured and forgiving.
Hey! I NEVER said inches, YOU just assumed.
My apologies, but I’m kind of curious as to what fail this
was on, seems to be quite a story. If anybody would care to give me that link… I’ve been away from fails for too long, I was almost going

Seems that someone has hacked through the CPI firewall! Damn it!
They were using Windows Vista!
Mystery Solved!
That’s exactly what I thought. It looks like Jack got there a little too late, though.
No worries, I brought the cannon.
It’s CIP I thought.
look airplane fail 14 Feb. 2008
It’s not the same, this FAIL caption is red.
never said it is the same…
That’s just sck.
The red ones are fine, just a bit messy, that’s all.
duplicate fail
and first who noticed that…!
Highly doubt it. I already had the previous image on my hard drive…
everybody can say this
This is the reason why I will only fly Wu-Tang Air.
Not my style…but, Led Zepp Air goes down well.
Thats what she said.
Twice.
Thrice is nice!
Siamese planes, joined at the fuselage.
Nah, I think it has something to do w/ butt secks
“Good morning, this is your captain speaking. We have some…ummm….technical issues this morning and we are going to be at the gate for just a tad longer until we get the…uhhhhh…problem resolved. On behalf of everyone here at NWA we like to thank you for flying with us today. We know you have choice in air travel and we are sure after you figure out whats going on you’ll certainly never choose us again…..I mean, we HOPE you choose us again.”
“Well, im my opinion, that was the best ride I ever had.”
Now you know why the engines were smoking.
“There’s something… on the… wing!”
Twilight zone WIN!
Want to see something really scary?
Ryannon sober?
I said scary, not imaginary.
No Mookie! Please! No more pictures of Libiraci nude! AGGGGGHHHH!!!! I’m blind!!!
(thankyou, that takes me back!)
no no no
its definetly 2 planes spooning
how does that even happen?
You see when one plane loves another plane very much………
They complete a fuel transfer.
They move luggage?
They wing it.
Or when one plane has money and wants some “fun”, he pays the lady plane to “play” with him.
The little plane is a chubby chaser.
Whats the fail? It’s just an older plane taking a younger one under its wing.
The younger plane has been spooked by the photographer, and is peeking out from under the wing?
Looks like an attempted wrestling match gone bad.
NWA?
new wing attachment
Yeah, I’m waiting for Ice Cube to hop out on the wing.
fuselage frottage
(frequent frotteur program)
That’s rather a difficult-to-pronounce combination of words.
a wing-ding rub-a-dub
(in plane talk)
This is one of those “HOW THE BLOODY HELL DID THAT HAPPEN?!” things.
Duplicate FAIL

Fail…
Stewardess…I’d like another martini, please. Shaken, stirred at this point who gives a shit.
isn’t this the way little planes are made?
I am so dissapointed
OK. No more sex-plane jokes.
Yes. We’ll get on to bi-plane jokes.
Props to you!
I’d rudder you didn’t.
Ah, mater, want Jet to always love me. . .
^ makes the Wings sing
What’s wrong with that,
I’d like to know. . .
actually this is what happens when they just turn the plane off, instead of landing first ; )
aircraft reproduction!!! buba wonders what is the pregnancy time for an aircraft.
Didn’t this happen on an episode of 24? And by “on an episode” I mean, two days ago.
I always thought that having the guys with the flashlights pointing the planes which way to go was a bit pointless. I guess this is what happens when that guy goes on break…
damn that tony almeida
I’ve seen this pic here before.
You come here often sailor?
I think I might know what’s going on in this photo…You know how if you lose a contest to an older sibling or friend, they might decide to pin you to the ground and sit on or near your head and fart to rub it in? I think this might be the plane equivalent…
ha
Nwa-nwa-nwa-nwa-nwah!
DUBBELPOST
Proof that one plane cannot be the wind beneath another planes wings.
Or be a beast of burden.
Plane in front stopped short and the pilot of the one in back thought he could drift around it but failed.
They should have stuck to rap music.
Video of this happening. Guess the breaks went out.
http://wcbstv.com/video/?id=89479@wcbs.dayport.com
Looks like it happened around New Jersey. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was.
The Y2K “doom and gloom” guys said this would happen!
FAIL!!! And I’m on a plane in a few days time
*going on a plane in a few days time
FAIL for me
Well one good thing is one less DC9 to worry about!
Damn youngins and their lack of appreciation for decent engineering. I suppose you like yer A-380s and yer DA-42s and yer carbon fibre composits…no respect, I tell ya.
No, i just hate the DC9.
Love all the historic aircraft – infact, i love all aircraft – just dont like the DC9, thats all
thirty people died there, but on the brighter note it managed to narrowly miss a puppy.
When Planes Mate…
Shocking images, next on Action News 11!
I was coming back to Minneapolis from a business trip the day this happened, and saw this scene out a window as I went by on the moving walkway — they’d been stuck a few hours at that point.
If you search minneapolis airport planes collision on Google, you’ll get the full story. Hydraulics failure of the smaller plane or something.
What a waste of a 75
If you’re talking about what I think you are, that’s an A32X (can’t tell if it’s a 319 or 320), not an E175…
its an A319..and the other ones a DC-9
Too bad this was posted a year ago as well and is on page 158. New material, people, new!
Something similar happened at Detroit Metro airport, it happened November 13. I saw it because my plane passed right by it while taxiing.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your captain speaking, we have now successfully arrived in the tail end of Northwest Airlines Flight 123, where the time is 5 minutes before I get fired.”
Let’s describe a certain female. A female with the disease of character
and attitude. If you will, a snob. However, in a view of NWA…
There once were two airplanes
that were not quite totally sane.
And they discovered they could
sleep with a male plane.
Now they’re having butt sex.
Airplane butt sex.
wtf? this is an old picture there is this same picture at 151
How sweet… the two planes like each other and are mating.
Well, I should have said “attempting to mate”; they obviously don’t quite know what they are doing.
9 months later, the pilots were getting their cute little prop planes to fly…
They’re giving eachother a “special hug” to make a baby plane.
Here, this explains everything:
LOL XD
When they look at the black box on this thos pilots willl be Faces will be Red
Having to scroll through a million comments to post on comment on failblog => FAIL!
not.
just saying, this is on page152
OMG it had a BABY!!!!!
=.= geh…
Coming up the rear isnt always a good thing, especially for jet planes.
I feel “the talk” following this one……
this isnt funny guys I was on this plane and everyone died
wow you fail at failing
they were tryin 2 f*ck
that’s disgusting, what a comment to make!
Needless to say, some tow driver’s lost their job!!
