Boeing 747,
Netherlands
4 October 1992
No written supplemental analysis is available yet. The accident occurred during the approach after the two right hand engines dropped of the wing. Neither VMCA, nor VMCA2 were mentioned in the accident investigation report. To the opinion of AvioConsult, a contributing factor to the cause of the accident was out of control due to not observing the requirements and conditions for VMCA2 to be valid before selecting high thrust during the final turn, which was into the 'dead' engines. This is thoroughly explained in the paper Airplane Control after Engine Failure, presented above. Read the introduction to this analysis | Top |
