Lufthansa A380 suffers wake turbulence during takeoff right after another A380 from LAX

 A Lufthansa A380 experienced wake turbulence after takeoff from Los Angeles.

During take off from Los Angeles LAX, a Lufthansa A380 to Munich experienced wake turbulence after another A380 took off minutes before.

The Emirates flight was departing over three hours late, but viewers of L.A. FLIGHTS saw a wonderful scene during the livestream.

At Los Angeles LAX, two A380 super heavy aircraft had to take off from runway 7R one after the other as the sun was setting.

At 19:20 PDT on flight EK216, the Emirates A380 (registration A6-EVF) was cleared to take off for Dubai.


The same runway saw the departure of Lufthansa A380 (registration D-AIMK) on flight LH453 to Munich, which took place just two minutes later.

The first aircraft created wake turbulence, which the Lufthansa plane entered. For a brief while, the A380 is seen adjusting its wings.

A disturbance in the atmosphere that develops behind an aircraft as it passes through the air is called wake turbulence. When an aircraft is taking off, wake turbulence can be especially hazardous in the area behind it because of the steep angle of attack.

When an aircraft is departing from the same threshold, the FAA states that it is given an adequate time or distance interval:

Takeoff will be behind a super aircraft for three minutes, or until the proper radar separation occurs.

Takeoff will occur behind a heavy aircraft for two minutes, or until the suitable radar separation is reached.

 

 After two minutes or the suitable radar separation, a small aircraft will take off from the B757.

After continuing to a cruise altitude of 35,000 feet, the Lufthansa flight landed in Munich after 10 hours and 28 minutes.
