Accident Description: instagram.com/p/CnWqo9APcRN/?igshid=OGQ2MjdiOTE=
๐๐ถ๐ฟ ๐๐น๐ผ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฎ ๐๐น๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ ๐ต๐ฌ was a scheduled domestic passenger flight from Washington D.C. to Fort Lauderdale with an intermediate stop in Tampa. The flight was being operated by a Boeing 737-200 (Reg. N62AF) on ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ ๐ญ๐ฏ, ๐ญ๐ต๐ด๐ฎ.
The flight was scheduled to leave Washington National Airport at 14:15 EST but was delayed for 1 hour and 45 minutes due to a moderate to heavy snowfall which necessitated the temporary closing of the airport for snow removal. At 15:38 the plane finally taxied to runway 36. Although contrary to flight manual guidance, the crew attempted to deice the plane by intentionally positioning the plane near the exhaust of the plane ahead in line (a New York Air DC-9). At 15:58 takeoff clearance was received.
The plane accelerated at a lower-than-normal rate during takeoff, requiring 45 seconds and nearly 5,400 feet of runway, 15 seconds and nearly 2,000 feet more than normal, to reach lift-off speed. The plane initially achieved a climb, but failed to accelerate after lift-off. The plane's stall warning stick shaker activated almost immediately after lift-off and continued until impact. At about 16.01, the plane struck the heavily congested northbound span of the 14th Street Bridge and plunged into the ice-covered Potomac River.
๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ:
"The flight crew's failure to use engine anti-ice during ground operation and takeoff, their decision to take off with snow/ice on the airfoil surfaces of the aircraft, and the captain's failure to reject the takeoff during the early stage when his attention was called to anomalous engine instrument readings. Contributing to the accident were the prolonged ground delay between de-icing and the receipt of ATC takeoff clearance during which the airplane was exposed to continual precipitation, the known inherent pitch up characteristics of the B-737 aircraft when the leading edge is contaminated with even small amounts of snow or ice, and the limited experience of the flight crew in jet transport winter operations."
