I was on the last flight to leave from Honolulu on 20 December 2020, and during takeoff and climb Kilauea volcano on the big island erupted violently. I didn't know it at the time but the crew was extremely worried and on edge, I saw an orange glow out of the window but thought it was just light from the engines in weird fog. It wasn't until we landed that the crew showed how frazzled and relieved they were. The plane was too far into the takeoff to abandon or return to Honolulu, and no other planes were able to leave after us. We got pretty lucky

@mipmipmipmipmipObviously not, especially since this person’s plane didn’t come near an ounce of ash. If a lot of ash got ingested, the primary cost would be replacing the engines. Some flight surfaces would require replacement/repair and it’d need a new paint.

And it’s obviously not true that they couldn’t have returned to Honolulu or another Hawaiian airport. Ash doesn’t spread faster than the wind. All they would have needed to do was to dump fuel. Also, the pilots’ worry would have been from ignorance since they clearly wouldn’t have been flying through the ash stream.

Once is a fluke. Twice is happenstance. Three times? That’s a pattern, best do something about it. - Thing is, the crew knew to avoid ash clouds - but you can’t tell the two apart just by looking at them. Part of the solution adopted today is air charts now have the option to show airspace that has a risk of carrying volcanic ash. I may question how quickly the charts can be updated, but the capacity IS there today. In the days of paper charts, it wasn’t an option.

@@davemould4638 they were alert, and took the then standard measures to get out of the ash (meaning, apply full throttle and climb). Diversion wasn't considered probably because of where they were flying, it's pretty remote there with few aircraft that can handle a 747. Vancouver or Seattle could have been options to land early had they known the cloud would be where it was and couldn't be avoided, but they didn't as the location of the cloud wasn't known. And had they chosen to make their fuel stop there rather than at Anchorage they may have had trouble reaching Japan, especially if they'd have chosen a more southerly (and thus longer) route to avoid the volcano. Lots of factors always come into play when making flight planning decisions. And sometimes you take a calculated risk if said risk is considered to be minimal.

If I had seen that brown cloud I definitely wouldn't have tried to go through it. But what do I know. I'm a simple motorcycle tinkerer.

To be fair I think they probably missed the significance of that off white colour at such high altitude as it is common in lower altitude cloud. The reason of course being that lower altitude clouds are often contaminated with sulphur dioxide etc due to pollution emanating from industry on the ground. Sometimes it does find it's way to higher altitudes too but that generally needs a strong updraft to help it, volcanoes don't as they spew these gasses out with a ton of heat and pressure creating their own powerful updraft. But it is hard to blame the pilots for not being sure whether or not the cloud they were looking at was ash or just a run of the mill dirty cloud on a planet full of them. This is why we have meteorologists and geologists that should be identifying and tracking this stuff rather than asking pilots to try and guess from a slight tint of colour (And it is slight, the graphics oversaturate it more than it is in reality). Fortunately the VAAC teams now exist to do exactly this so there is no need for guesswork anymore or at least there shouldn't be.

I actually worked on that aircraft in Everett when it hit the flight line along with some British air, Asiana, Lufthansa and a few others. They were a beautiful aircraft with all the upgrades and even though I was avionics I was temporarily on electrical rework because the first 400s came out of the factory and they were engineering basket cases. I would get a workcard to install a wire and the very next day me or another tech would get another workcard to remove the same wire I had installed just yesterday. And in the "E-bay" (Electronics Bay) Boeing had incorporated a new wiring concept called "wire wrap." It made as much sense as defunding the police and then wondering why crime had increased.

Thrilling. A whole 20 Kg bag of cement of ash still left in the engines, let alone whatever went through them. =) So many miracles during the recovery - all those engine restart re-tries, and only after seven did they start up again. 'Turn your hair white. Thanks for creating this awesome video.

ATC: Please be careful not to fly into volcanic ash clouds. Pilot: OH there's a cloud let's fly into it. Oh wait . . .

I'm a big fan of your videos. Very clear presentation of the facts - no artificial drama. The incidents are drama enough! I have just one question- you mentioned that the cost of cleanup & repair of the aircraft was $150 million in today's dollars. Are you sure that's right - if that were the case, wouldn't KLM have been better off writing it off? While list prices are $400M AFAIK street prices are more in the range of $150M

The fact that the only two major volcanic ash incidents in aviation history happened in Indonesia and Alaska, respectively, is no accident. Arc volcanism is by far the worst kind for aviation since it tends to involve the most silica-rich type of magma, which is in turn most likely to fragment into ash when it erupts.

“Lucky they were flying in daylight so they could see the ash cloud” obviously not !, However fair play to the first officer who despite English not being her native language managed to stay calm and transmitted their emergency.

Wow they all landed safely! Had they flight crew not remained so resilient in restarting the engines and tackled every other issue as systematically aa they did. With power outages along with incorrect readings basically falling blindly out of the sky their outstanding attempt to keep optimistic where perhaps other pilots would've said a prayer and yelled into the radio "THATS IT WE'RE GOING DOWN". NOT THESE CREW, NOT ON THEIR WATCH (and so polite to air traffic control throughout this terrifying ordeal "sir we are in a fall") C'mon ......HOW?? ❤👍👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
