Ever wondered why airplanes sometimes dump fuel in mid air? Fuel jettison is a controlled safety procedure used by large transport category aircraft to reduce gross weight before landing. Aircraft often depart at maximum takeoff weight (MTOW), which can exceed the maximum certificated landing weight (MLW). If an aircraft must return to the airport shortly after takeoff due to mechanical issues, abnormal situations, or precautionary reasons landing above MLW could overstress the landing gear, bra

What is a jettison? Jettisoning fuel means an aircraft intentionally releases fuel in flight during an emergency to reduce its weight. This procedure, also known as fuel dumping, allows an aircraft to land safely if it is too heavy to meet the maximum landing weight requirements after an emergency takeoff. The fuel is released from special nozzles at high altitude, where it evaporates( Damn lie) before reaching the ground. #follow #chicago #skywatcher | Mike Moton

World of Matrix on Instagram: "Fuel dumping, or fuel jettisoning, is the controlled release of fuel from an aircraft during flight to quickly reduce its weight before landing. Large airplanes often take off heavier than their maximum safe landing weight, so in emergencies—such as engine failure, medical situations, or technical issues shortly after takeoff—pilots may need to dump fuel to reach a safe landing weight. This is done using a fuel jettison system, which employs pumps and dump valves t
