Imagine if someone that is scared of flying but convinced to fly was in that plane. Nothing on earth will make that person enter plane again.

Tragedy was, today, averted, as an SAA flight developed technical fault midair and was forced to empty some fuel on an island.

Recounting how the whole event played out, Nigerian priest, Precious Uwagbai, said: “A South African Airline with Flight number SA184 just escaped a plane crash now, 5th January 2019, with over 200 passengers onboard. .

We had taken off and were airborne for over 2 and half hours when the pilot announced that there is a technical fault and that we should remain calm. .

We lost our calm when the plane began to shake on air so the pilot had to jettison some fuel over a deserted island so as to avert any fire outbreak Incase of crash landing. .

We were airborne for over 4hrs before we finally had a tough landing at Johannesburg international Airport in South Africa. .

The men of the firefighters service came to our rescue as we landed in a deserted area of the airport and waited for almost 30mins for the rescue team to get us by bus back to the Airport terminal. .

All we have to say is thanks to God for preserving our lives. I am Priest Precious and in the company of 82yrs old Mehdi jaffer and his wife.”

Boarding a flight with black people could result to heart if there's a little technical fault. Black are too scared of death...


Pilots were trained to land plane safely even with both engine gone. The only time you should prepare for death is when the plane is off radar or the pilots lost total control of the plane and the plane is heading towards a mountain, ocean or residential area.


Fear kills faster than a crash

Tell us on NL this poo you just posted when next you're inside a plane that developed fault mid-air.
Trained or not, is it so sure his emergency landing will be successful?

Not everyone is afraid of death bro... I can say it anywhere. Panicking wouldn't save you when the Plane Crashes.... Your last moment shouldn't be your scariest, but your happiest.

Just In November someone (TechCapon) posted something meaningful and similar here why such could happen.

Please see below reasons for that. Not a big deal.



TechCapon



Have you ever looked up and saw an aircraft flying with long white lines like gas behind it ? I’ve seen it many times and what the aeroplane is doing is called fuel dumping. Now you’ll be wondering why pilots will dump fuel considering the fact that aviation fuel is very expensive and also causes serious pollution to the environment. In this post techcapon be explaining to you why it is necessary for the pilots to dump fuel sometimes.



Now this also includes our local airlines in Nigeria like DANA, AERO etc. Although fuel dumping is more common with airlines that travel long distances and make international flights. Before take-off, the airline do the maths. They calculate how much fuel is needed to the aircraft to complete their journey and they fill the aircraft tanks with enough fuel to make the complete their journey. There are some terms I’ll like to explain in this post for you to understand how it works.

Dry operating weight: This is the weight of the plane without fuel, passengers or luggage.

Payload: This is the weight of the passengers and their luggage

Zero fuel weight: This is the weight of the fuel needed to reach their final destination including reserve.

Dry operating weight + Payload + Zero fuel load = Take-off weight

Take-off weight MUST always be greater than landing weight



The major reason why pilots dump fuel is because the landing weight of the plane exceeds the maximum. Inside the cockpit, pilots have a meter that tells them the weight of the aircraft at all times. For example, Boeing 747 aircrafts have a maximum landing weight of 312000kg.

Anything above that weight will cause the aircraft to suffer serious damage during landing or even crash during landing. Infact, if the maximum take-off weight is above 312000kg, the cockpit will blink red lights and give the pilots warning. The question on your mind right now will be, if the airline calculates how much fuel is needed to arrive their destination, why dump fuel before arriving ? The answer is simple.

U don't have to be discouraged bro. Just a pity that Nigerians don't appreciate meaningful and insightful posts, they appreciate news from celebrities and slay mamas even when it will never add value to them.

People like me are grabbing the meaningful comments and posts. Keep up the good work.

Thanks bro.

Everybody calls themselves priest and bishop nowadays. Or this could be the modern day Jonah, running aways from their sin.
