Aircraft Nose Gear Emergency Response

A CRJ (regional airliner) receives a nose gear malfunction warning on approach. You will be able to observe from a pilot’s perspective the subsequent communication with the tower and resulting go-around for a new landing. The pilots run through the emergency check list for dealing with a nose gear problem and communicate with the cabin crew. You will then witness the emergency landing and communication with ARFF crews. This video discusses how the plane’s position upon landing will impact passenger egress. Also discussed in depth are the aircraft fuel tank plumbing and air venting systems which are important to understand regarding leaking jet fuel. This video puts you into the mind of the pilot so you will understand his issues which will help ARFF crews make a more efficient response.
