Video Description

Jeff Ostroff analyzes for you the latest on the UPS plane crash investigation. This video features new NTSB aerial video, offering a clear view of the crash path. I'll discuss the corrected altitude reports and crucial cockpit voice recorder audio, including the repeating bell heard before the engine separated. We'll also explore the details of the left engine's pylon separation. Stay informed about the latest findings. The NTSB gave some surprising details in an update on the UPS plane crash of their MD-11 cargo jet after a catastrophic engine separation during takeoff from Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport. Jeff Ostroff breaks down the details the NTSB gave on the jet’s pylon engine mounts, the cockpit voice recordings, and the cockpit flight data recorder. You’ll see aerial footage, 3D diagrams, and a clear explanation of the takeoff sequence — including what V1, Vr, and V2 really mean for a heavy aircraft like this. 00:00 Introduction TO NTSB aerial video of UPS Plane crash 01:31 MD-11 takeoff decision speeds for engine fires 02:35 Aerial views of where the UPS plane crashed 03:27 Point of impact where UPS plane crashed 05:19 NTSB briefing with wrong airplane altitude? 07:18 NTSB progress on cockpit voice recorder and cockpit data recorders 07:53 What cockpit voice recorder reveals about the takeoff 08:28 NTSB reveals major data about how the engine tore off 09:31 Info about the MD11 plane engine and pylon
