31 March 1993 - Japan Airlines 46E

On March 31, 1993, Japan Airlines Cargo Flight 46E operated by a Boeing 747-100 (N473EV) experienced severe turbulence at an altitude of about 2,000 ft (610 m) after departure about 12:24 local time, resulted in dynamic multi-axis lateral loadings that exceeded the ultimate lateral load-carrying of the number two engine pylon. This caused the number two engine to separate from the aircraft; the number one engine was maintained at emergency/maximum power and the aircraft landed safely back at Anchorage International Airport 20 minutes later.

 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On March 31, 1993, the No. 2 engine and engine pylon separated from Japan Airlines, Inc. flight 46E, a Boeing 747-121, that had been wet-leased from Evergreen International Airlines, Inc.,
shortly after departure from Anchorage International Airport, Anchorage, Alaska. The accident occurred about 1234 Alaska standard time. The flight was a scheduled cargo flight from
Anchorage to Chicago-O'Hare International Airport, Chicago, Illinois. On board the airplane were the flightcrew, consisting of the captain, the first officer, and the second officer, and two nonrevenue company employees. The airplane was substantially damaged during the separation of the engine. No one on board the airplane or on the ground was injured.

Flight 46E departed Anchorage about 1224 local time. The flight release/weather package provided to the pilots by Evergreen operations contained a forecast for severe turbulence and indicated that severe turbulence was reported by other large airplanes. As flight 46E taxied onto the runway to await its takeoff clearance, the local controller informed the flightcrew that the pilot of another Evergreen B-747 reported severe turbulence at 2,500 feet while climbing out from
runway 6R.

After takeoff, at an altitude of about 2,000 feet, the airplane experienced an uncommanded left bank of approximately 50 degrees. While the desired air speed was 183 knots, the air speed fluctuated about 75 knots from a high of 245 knots to a low of 170 knots. Shortly thereafter, the flightcrew reported a "huge" yaw, the No. 2 throttle slammed to its aft stop, the No. 2 reverser indication showed thrust reverser deployment, and the No. 2 engine electrical bus failed. Several witnesses on the ground reported that the airplane experienced several severe pitch and roll oscillations before the engine separated.

Shortly after the engine separated from the airplane, the flightcrew declared an emergency, and the captain initiated a large radius turn to the left to return and land on runway 6R. The No. I engine was maintained at emergency/maximum power. While on the downwind portion of the landing pattern, bank angles momentarily exceeded 40 degrees, alternating with wings level. About 1245, flight 46E advised the tower that they were on the runway.

The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the lateral separation of the No. 2 engine pylon due to an encounter with severe or possibly extreme turbulence that resulted in dynamic multi-axis lateral loadings that exceeded the ultimate lateral load-carrying capability of the pylon, which was already reduced by the presence of the fatigue crack near the forward end of the pylon's forward firewall web.

As a result of its investigation of this accident, the National  Transportation Safety Board made seven recommendations to the Federal Aviation Administration, including the inspection of B-747
engine pylons, the potential meteorological hazards to aircraft,,, an increase in the lateral load capability of engine pylon structures, and the modification of the aircraft departure routes at Anchorage International Airport during periods of moderate or severe turbulence. The Safety Board recommended that the National Weather Service use the WSR-88D Doppler weather radar system at Anchorage, Alaska, to document mountain-generated wind fields in the
Anchorage area and to develop detailed low altitude turbulence forecasts. Additionally, the Safety Board reiterated to the Federal Aviation Administration Safety Recommendation A-92-58, which urged the development of a meteorological aircraft hazard program to include
other airports in or near mountainous terrain.

CAM-1 #, I had a hard time gettin' this thing trimmed enough**

1246:48 {25:32}
CAM-3 jeez, that bank angle and stuff, man, that was like crazy.

1246:51 {25:35}
CAM-1 I was goin' full full right rudder to get recover the bank.

1246:54 {25:38}
CAM-3 OK, I admit it now. I was scared.

1246:57 {25:41}
CAM-1 we were all scared
1246:58 {25:42}
CAM-3 OK. after the landing**

1247:00 {25:44}
CAM-? it was a nice landing too you guys.

1247:02 {25:46}

fire department, huh?

1247:34 {26:18}
CAM-1 ah, tell 'em that we did get severe turbulence at twenty five
hundred feet (today).

1247:35 {26:19}
CAM-3 severe. enough to blow us into a forty five fifty degree
bank angle.
1247:40 {26:24}
CAM-1 ya. -- I'll, I'll talk to them. that's alright.

1247:42 {26:26}
CAM-2 OK.

1247:43 {26:27}
CAM-3 ignition is off, window heat off, pressurization checked ---
forty five, pressurization checked, hydraulics and brakes.

1247:54 {26:38}
CAM-1 how are the brakes?

1247:55 {26:39}
CAM-3 um.

1247:56 {26:40}
CAM-1 they gotta be hot.

1247:58 {26:42}
CAM-3 I'm sure they must be. um, ya, they're hot.--all your left
sides are really hot.

1248:05 {26:49}
CAM-? we don't have the number two engine.

1248:06 {26:50}
CAM-3 that's what I thought.

1248:07 {26:51}
CAM-1 alright, I want somebody to talk to ops.

1248:08 {26:52}
CAM-3 we lost the engine.

1248:10 {26:54}

1248:12 {26:56}
CAM-3 I got it.

1248:14 {26:58}
CAM-1 tell 'em that we got really hot brakes on the airplane.

1248:16 {27:00}
CAM-3 OK.

CAM-1 so, ***

1248:18 {27:02}
CAM-2 ***

1248:18 {27:02}
RDO-3 Evergreen ops, Japan Air four six Echo.

1248:21 {27:05}
EVV-1 four six Echo Evergreen ops, go ahead.

1248:24 {27:08}
RDO-3 we did indeed lose number two engine and we have very
hot brakes on the left side of the aircraft. how copy?

1248:32 {27:16}
CAM-? yep, we sure as ## shucked number two engine, it's gone.

1248:34 {27:18}
EVV-1 copy all. you on the blocks now?

1248:35 {27:19}
RDO-3 ah negative, we're taxiing in I just wanted you to warn
maintenance that the brakes on the left side are indeed very
hot. ******.

1248:45 {27:29}
EVV-1 OK, copy all. thanks

1248:51 {27:35}
CAM-3 OK, somebody can kiss me and tell me I'm still here***

1248:53 {27:37}
CAM-1 I'll kiss you in a minute here @,****

1248:55 {27:39}
CAM-3 OK. you got it.

1248:57 {27:41}
CAM-1 saved my butt.

1248:58 {27:42}
CAM-3 OK, everybody did.

1249:01 {27:45}
CAM-1 ***** had this problem **** and it didn't get any better**
turbulence ****

1249:05 {27:49}
CAM-3 I want pictures. --- um, what were we doing? --- guess we
can crank the APU.

1249:18 {28:02}
CAM-1 go ahead and get the APU running.

1249:22 {28:06}
CAM-2 I asked them to come closer.

1249:24 {28:08}
CAM-3 number four's steady, number one hydraulics?

1249:31 {28:15}
CAM-? the the gauge is just going in circles**

1249:34 {28:18}
CAM-3 OK. that was like, look at his gauges ** I'm just gonna
crank the APU and we'll see what happens ------ it's out
over the water at least hopefully. no actually, it's over
Anchorage somewhere. we took off on six left and hit all
that # ****

1249:41 {28:25}
CAM-1 OK, uh, everybody.

1250:03 {28:47}
CAM-3 yes.

1250:05 {28:49}
CAM-1 we need to gart start gettin' our story right so we can start
detailing everything that happened.

1250:08 {28:52}
CAM-3 OK, let's, do you wanna get blocked in first, or, do you
wanna do it now?

1250:11 {28:55}
CAM-1 *** just thinking about it, no we're gonna get blocked in,
and everything secured so we won't catch the ## on fire
from the brakes.

1250:17 {29:01}
CAM-3 it was eighteen hundred feet is where we first started
catching the # is what I saw. APU is start, check. Now we
got indications all over the place it's real weird #.

1250:30 {29:14}
CAM-1 ya, well

1250:32 {29:16}
CAM-3 including a wing overheat on the left side. can we turn off
the air?

1250:37 {29:21}
CAM-1 I don't, I don't know if the turbulence ripped that engine
loose or ***.

1250:40 {29:24}
CAM-2 it did. I think****

1250:43 {29:27}
CAM-1 **** or it the engine blew and.

1250:47 {29:31}
CAM-2 they want the other one, the other one.

1250:49 {29:331
CAM-1 turn off **** number one.

1250:53 {29:37}
CAM-3 number one, it's two ADPs are comin' off. we've got a wing
overheat. I'm taking all the air off the left wing. OK?

1250:59 {29:43}
CAM-1 I'm sure we do. I'm sure we do. --- isolate the wing, please.

1251:07 {29:51}
CAM-3 ya, it's isolated and ah, I'm gonna wait on the APU and all
that crap.

1251:08 {29:52}
CAM-2 you're lucky that that one didn't take the number one out.

1251:10 {29:54}
CAM-1 yes, yes. we're real lucky. with all the parts that came off

1251:16 {30:00}
CAM-3 I think everybody here is going to get their medical****
good thing no one drank last night, huh?

1251:23 {30:07}
CAM-1 that's right.

1251:28 {30:12}
CAM-3 OK, I don't know what you want****

1251:31 {30:15}
CAM-1 tell me to turn left,

1251:34 {30:18}
RDO-3 Evergreen ops, we're going to need a power unit out here.
we got overheat on the left wing also and we don't want to
crank the APU so bring us the ground power unit.

1251:39 {30:23}
CAM-1 I can turn left all day. ((simultaneous with previous
transmission)) down one and four.

1251:47 {30:31}
RDO-3 OK, thanks.

1251:49 {30:33}
CAM-3 um, I don't know, I don't have the APU cranked because of
that wing leading edge overheat.

1251:52 {30:36}
CAM-1 we gotta get these brakes off

1251:54 {30:38}
CAM-3 OK. -- copy. -- number one and four comin' down. power's
comin' off .

1251:57 {30:41}
INT-1 OK, you got the chocks in?

1251:59 {30:43}
INT-7 chocks are in.

1252:02 {30:46}
INT-1 OK, we don't have an APU, we're powerin' it down right
now. ah, brakes are very very hot.

1252:06 {30:50} --- power's coming off.
CAM-3 OK, comin down three and four.

1252:10 {30:54}
INT-7 copy that. you guys did a good job gettin' it in here.

1252:12 {30:56}
CAM-2 number one radio can be on.

1252:13 {30:57}
INT-1 well, I didn't think it'd make it.
