Hydraulically. now with no hydraulics on the left side, the slats retract back into the wing. which means he has less lift on that side than he had on the opposite side, so it wants to roll. an eyewitness manages to snap a photo of the plane rolling on to its side with its left wing pointing straight down to the ground. what happens next seals the fate of flight 191. pilots are trained to handle engine failures, and they did what their training taught them to do. they reduced their air speed. but when they did that, they no longer had air flow across the flight controls. they just didn t have enough time to do it. the plane staggers up to 325 feet. as it s rolled on to its side and slowed down, it s uncontrollable, and goes into a nosedive. american 191, heavy. want to come back into what ....

what happened, keith, they shut that ram in a couple of hours ago. in fact, it was right after kent welles technical briefing. and that s done hydraulically, and it closes pretty quickly, because it s a ram, and it s a blind ram that closes off that entire opening. that diverts the flow to these side valves. there s two in the old legacy stack and there s two in this new stack. and they ve been gradually closing the side valves. the only one we can see is on the rov feed is the one on the left and it looks like only one is open, but you can t see the bottom valves, so i m not sure exactly how many they have closed. any idea why the government s delay could not have come before bp took the last cap off? i mean, why ask for a delay once the oil is gushing even more than it had been, about concerns that had been raised during top kill months ago? this sure seems on the fly. this totally ad lib. at this point, that they didn t have all these steps worked out. and what tells me that ....
