Engine Fire procedures and actions on Boeing 747
Hello! How do you do everyone.
Hope you enjoy this clip from a training session in the B747-8 ‘Superjet’ simulator. Whenever we complete a check ride as we have done today, and we have extra time left in our allotted session, I ask the students if they would like to practice some exercise or procedure. Today, Raymond who had just passed his checkride, asked to practice an engine fire and three engine landing. The B747-8 has 2 fire extinguisher bottles in each wing. One is designated for each engine but in severe fire cases, both fire bottles can be used to fight a fire in an engine. This would mean you would not have an extinguisher available for the other engine on same side if it also caught fire later( you’d be having a bad day).Hence the reason an immediate landing is required. The fire extinguisher bottles on other wing cannot be used for the opposite wing.
The rest of the info is in the labels as the video runs. Oh and by the way, the actions to shutdown the engine on fire and discharge extinguishers must be done from memory. Hope you like it!
‘Chi Di Gin!’- Later!😀✈️

I'd love to see more failures and how to fix them. It's very interesting.
The 747 simulator is so much bigger than the actual cockpit !
I love the failures panel with all the possible combinations !
I love your videos! Fantastic pilot training!!!👍👍👍

Thanks to you too
I love all your videos! Such a underrated channel.
I love your teaching style. Wish you taught me to drive! 👍
Always enjoying.Thanks
Good one Capt. You got 2 good flyboys there too!
Another amazing video. Love this channel! 💪💪👏👏
FANTASTIC!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
Theres a scene in the 1997 movie Air Force One where engine 4 (yes number 4 just like in this video) gets shot at by enermy fighter Migs, and catches on fire. The co-pilot just switiches the extinguishing bottle BEFORE first lowering the throttle for that engine and cutting the fuel supply.

You are meant to cut off the fuel first. Sometimes cutting off the fuel can extinguish the fire without even using fire extinguisher. Movies used to be unrealistic.
I'd like to see the non-extinguished engine fire sim ran Cap. How could you show that to us and not run it with those two able Lads busting with enthusiasm??
Are there still simulators in the world for older aircraft that require a flight engineer such as the 747-200/300 or DC10?
Excellent video captain love it later
Great work, would fly onboard with you guys any day.
Thanks for showing us more of the simulator, nobody ever shows the Instructor panel in the simulator. it's those little things which get me curious at least :P I wonder how they look in modern simulators like for the B787, maybe A380 etc.. but fun content nontheless

Maybe they look the same. If it's not broken, don't fix it
Thanks for the video. Enjoyed it. Would like to see how to handle all four engines flame out event and glide to the airport.
Love ur videos!

Hello captain, great demonstration.👍 Can you show us how to control the yoke during take off and land?
Save cracks and broken fuel lines, what else could cause an engine fire? If both bottles have been discharged and the fire has not been extinguished, how many minutes do you have at your disposal to get the aircraft on the ground and evacuated? One can safely assume that critical engine fires are not a common occurrence these days?
Very good information. I am a mechanic on the 747-400 and -8. I was wondering if you have taken a Gen Fam course on either of the 747 variants? If not I think you would really enjoy the class. I know I did
Hi, thank you for this. Not sure if I missed it, but should the flight crew get visual confirmation from cabin crew (no.1) prior to switching off any faulty engine?
Excellent video! Very educational, thanks a lot! I haven’t seen on the video: shouldn’t also light up the red master warning light/button in case of eng. fire?

It did light up, pilot cancelled it before I captured it on video😊

Another fascinating video, Thank you. Richie and Raymond look like they should still be at school not flying 747s, though they handled it brilliantly. (What is it they say about police offices and airline pilots seeming to get younger as you get older?)
Thank you movie🎥
The guy running the sim can be very sadistic. I was running 2 engines at 1.30+ EPR, nearly max power, on the ground. Suddenly I jumped chocks. I brought the power back and applied brakes. I had no brakes. Dual brake system fail. Once power was at idle, deploy thrust reversers. Use of the TRs isn't in our checklist as ground maintenance. However, our instructor made sure that we knew how to use everything no matter if we were pilots or maintenance.
👍👍👍
If I ever find myself in a super rare situation where I was on a 747 on fire with no pilot I guess I know what to do now :P
Capt. Obet, so what happens if having discharged both extinguisher bottles a further fire develops in engine 3?

immediate land as soon as possible, then evacuate once aircraft came to a complete stop.
