aerosucre is a cargo airline based in bogotá , colombia .

it started operations in 1969 and operates scheduled international and domestic cargo services in latin america and the caribbean .

its home base is el dorado international airport , bogotá .

aerosucre

as a freighter , it served with kitty hawk air cargo , midamerican aerospace , before going to aerosucre in 2008 . aerosucre is also listed as the aircraft’s manager .
media reports from colombia indicate that a boeing 727 - 200 freighter operated by aerosucre has crashed .

just over ten years ago , in november 2006 , another aerosucre 727f crashed after taking from bogota , killing all five on - board .
the aircraft involved was delivered to air jamaica in 1975 and served with the airline for 22 years before being converted into a freighter . it went on to serve with various us cargo carriers before joining aerosucre’s fleet in 2008 . another aerosucre 727 freighter crashed in bogota in 2006 after hitting a tv tower while on approach to land in bad weather , killing six onboard .

we will have to wait and see exactly what caused this crash . maybe there was a systemic pattern of pushing the envelope when it comes to safety at aerosucre , or maybe a technical issue struck the plane at the worst possible time . it could have been a mixture of the two , or something different altogether . at least with so much quality video evidence , investigators might have an easier time getting to the bottom of this tragedy .
it’s is not clear why so many cameras were pointing at the jet during its departure . flightaware only shows embraer 170 regional jets as frequenting the airport’s relatively short 5 , 900 foot asphalt strip , but there are videos of other aircraft stopping there , including larger 737s and 727s . in fact , one video taken back in october shows what is likely the exact same jet ( aerosucre is thought to have only one operational 727 ) nearly suffering the same fate as yesterday’s doomed flight .

colombia ' s civil aviation authority aerocivil reported the aircraft crashed three minutes after takeoff from puerto carreno . 5 occupants were killed , one occupant survived correcting earlier reports of 4 fatalities and 1 survivor .
reporting that at the time of the departure the aerodrome was not controlled . two aircraft departed the aerodrome prior to the boeing 727 using runway 07 for departure .
according to flight data and cockpit voice recorder the crew remained unaware of the last metar , which for 22 : 00z read :
01008kt 9999 few020 sct200 31 / 32 a / / /
. the crew was backtracking the runway for departure from runway 25 , completed their checklists prior to the 180 degrees turn , following the 180 degrees turn the aircraft came to a stop slightly off the runway heading ( this was later corrected during the takeoff run ) . the crew determined their v1 = vr = 127 kias , v2 was 141 kias , the epr for takeoff was set to 2 . 12 ( left and right engine , jt8d ) and 2 . 11 ( tail mounted engine ) .
the captain ( 58 , atpl , 8 , 708 hours total , 6 , 822 hours on type ) was assisted by a first officer ( 39 , cpl , 3 , 285 hours total , 3 , 285 hours on type ) .
the griaa reported that the load manifest was not found within the wreckage of the aircraft nor was a copy found in the airport office . the investigation assumes that the aircraft departed with 9 pallets weighing a total of 19 , 820 lbs .
@ jose aparicio my source went missing , sorry - - the wikiquote site , which is great .
i never said half th s * * t people say i did
( albert eistein ) .
for pentti virtanen , regarding the phrase attributed to einstein ( human stupidity ) i did some research and it seems to be a modified version of a quote from immanuel kant ' s critique of practical reason :
two things fill the mind with ever - increasing wonder and awe , the more often and the more intensely the mind of thought is drawn to them : the starry heavens above me and moral law within me .
but frankly i prefer my original version or the one that you quoted in french ( who was the author anyway ) . whatever , the pilots who crashed this 727 proved to be stupid beyond belief .
quote ah , penny just dropped - started life as the engineer and converted unquote like many others . it all has to do with propper selection and training . i don ' t have any problem with ex fe or military guys .
well observed and , as we now know , your deduction was correct ! i also noticed at the time , but failed to make the connection .
@ srboljub savic the fence alone probably was of no consequence to the plane , but the hitting the
military structure
mentioned was too much for the wing . if i ' m not mistaken , it was made of stone or concrete , as those defensive structures usually are .
@ jose aparicio
citing einstein again :
there are two things that are infinite : the universe and human stupidity
.
this is one of the numerous quotes falsely attributed to einstein . einstein might have said it as well , but its literary history traces back to the year 1880 as :
aujourd ' hui je sais qu ' il n ' y a pas de limites ŕ la bętise humaine , qu ' elle est infinie
no , it ' s not only you , griaa have changed the link to the document . now updated in our coverage , too , it should work again .
i just jump - seated in a colombian aircraft . those drivers were skilled , disciplined and professional . it was a pleasure to watch . that is what you wanted to say , patrick ?
if everything presented here is true like
epr
this was a packs off t / o for increased performance . the crew probably knew it was heavy , taking off with a tailwind did not help and since when does a airline fail to leave a copy of the load sheet behind ? lot of questions , little answers . very sad ending .
someone else recommended to look this search up on a popular video site - wow - if that ' s standard takeoff operations ( no crash ) then each takeoff was high risk one .
the rwy lenght of skfc is 1800m , boeing 722 needs 2600m at mtow . i wonder how easyly this plane could be overloaded . . whats 1800m ? maybe about half of mtow ?
if a similar belly dragging take off of the very same 727 was filmed back in oct . 2016 at this airport and that not one but two cameras recorded the same 727 doing the same stunt on the fatal day you may wonder if this was done rather regularly and the locals knew it . the question is : did they always took off way overweight or worse off the pilots did that for their excitement . either way another case for citing einstein again :
there are two things that are infinite : the universe and human stupidity
.
flame in the exhaust indicate a loss of efficiency in the gas path due to , in this case , potential ingestion causing or not damage and leading or not to internal failure . it means that engine did not ' ' flame out ' ' but rather loss partial or full thrust in short time , otherwise if fail you would also see smoke from the tail pipe . it is then not possible to say if that engine have recovered or not as can not be seen on current video if operating after t / o . by the way , flame out means engine spool down until shut down due to lack of combustion .
i read somewhere that the surviving crew member died in hospital too . is this true ?
according to the following video on it looks that they normally took off at the very end of the runway ( overweight ? ? ) . this time the a / c was too low and hit the fence and trees , damaging wing , engine . . . . .
looking at the video frame by frame taked from the left side of the plane , once the aircraft passed the far fence it is very clear that the right engine flamed out with fire .
you can hear the plane coming from far . perhaps the plane was taking - off with wind in the back . . .
especially in this business and more in investigation , engineers make hypothesis , collect data and evidence , analyse the finding and corroborate the result to make a comprehensive conclusion . . . . in our dictionary . . . ' ' explode and disintegrate ' ' do not match with jet engine behavior , may be uncontained failure is more appropriate as well as ' ' seems to me and strange ' ' pertain rather to people who do not understand basic . . . engineer ? ? ? ?

s . s . - me , knows very well where are installed b727 engines . when turbine disintegrate - explodes , fragments released , go many even
strange
ways + there are
ricochets
. most important , inboard flap , ripped of , most probably by hitting fence column , it is not key issue . weight & balance , seems to me , is area where lies answer , why it happen . there are number of example of crash , caused by neglecting or pilots , being not aware of their a / c c . g . position . last one ( most probably ) is russian tu 154 , ending in sea , only ~ 1 , 5 km from shore ( and bit more from runway end ) s . savic
maybe this srboljub savic is smarter than we think . write some gibberish and people start internet searching for your name . any publicity is better than none .
i don ' t know who this
srboljub savic , dipl . ing
is ? but the b727 does not have engines on the wings ! ! ! all three engines are on the rear fuselage and in the tail cone . as a pilot with 4 , 000 + hours in the b727 cargo configuration . i would say that they were way over gross weight . and the right flap was most likely damaged and dislodged from the aircraft as a result of striking the several fences and small trees !
' ' engine ' s turbine failure - explosion , resulting inboard flap torn ' ' do you have a single idea where the engines are located on this a / c . . . needless to ask you where is the turbine on an engine and in which direction it is axially loaded . .

colombian investigators have determined that the crew of a boeing 727 - 200 freighter departed in a tailwind before the aircraft overran and struck a perimeter fence , briefly becoming airborne before crashing in a field .
the inquiry into the 20 december accident at puerto carreno states that the crew was apparently “unaware” of information regarding the direction and strength of the wind .
colombian accident investigation authority griaa says preliminary information shows two aircraft – an embraer 170 and a cessna 208 – took off from runway 07 shortly before the 727 was due to depart .
these two aircraft had taken into account the prevailing wind at the airport , it says . meteorological data showed the wind from 10° at 8kt , which would have favoured a take - off from 07 .
but griaa says cockpit - voice recorder information shows the 727 headed instead to the threshold of the opposite - direction runway 25 . it points out that puerto carreno was operating as an uncontrolled airport from 15 : 00 , and the 727 departed at around 17 : 20 .
flight - data recorder information indicates that the trijet was configured with 30° take - off flaps . the inquiry associates this setting with a modification known as the ‘quiet wing’ which was developed for the 727 in order to reduce noise .
the ‘quiet wing’ system is designed to increase take - off performance through modifications including a flap and aileron droop , to increase lift and thereby cut perceived noise on the ground .
griaa adds that the 727’s configuration also included 6 . 5 units of elevator trim .
the inquiry says the evidence suggests the crew was not aware of the wind situation . departing from runway 25 under the recorded wind conditions would have resulted in a 4kt tailwind component rather than a 4kt headwind .
griaa says the air temperature was 31c . the airport has an elevation of 54m and a runway length of 1 , 800m .
all three engines were functioning during the take - off roll . the investigators state that the aircraft’s v1 and rotation speeds were 127kt .
evidence from video images of the ill - fated departure show the aircraft overran and hit a perimeter fence – tearing out a 13m - wide section – before striking a small military structure and a tree , which sheared off the right main landing - gear and the starboard inboard flap .
cockpit - voice recorder information shows the crew determined that the starboard engine had lost thrust and there was a loss hydraulic fluid following the impact .
the 727 managed to climb to 790ft but entered a slow turn to the right , with its bank angle gradually increasing to 60° . it remained airborne for around 2min but its airspeed bled away , the resulting loss of lift caused the aircraft to lose height , and it struck the ground about 4nm from the threshold of runway 07 .
griaa says ground - proximity alerts and stall warnings had been sounding in the cockpit , and the crew was carrying out a fuel - jettison procedure .
the jet struck the ground at a large angle of bank , it states , with high horizontal speed but relatively shallow pitch .
one of the six occupants of the freighter survived the crash . the cockpit and empennage were among the main components to emerge from the debris field .
losing four geared turbofan engines to in - flight failures as a result of a botched durability upgrade was not how pratt & whitney wanted 2018 to begin quite the opposite .
only twice in the first decade since the airbus a380 entered service has the double - deck aircraft ended a year with its order backlog higher than that of the previous one . on both occasions middle eastern carrier emirates alone had spared the programme from recording a duck for the year . emirates ordered 32 a380s in mid - 2010 and just eight days before the end of 2013 signed for another 50 of the type .
this plane could cross the atlantic in 3 . 5 hours . why did it fail ?
weather conditions at puerto carreño airport around the time of the crash included scattered clouds , winds out of the east at eight knots , and 87 degrees . the jet may have been taking off with a tailwind and elevated ambient temperatures affect an aircraft’s takeoff performance . dramatic videos showing different angles of the mishap surfaced just hours after the crash :
it seems the jet was operating at the extreme edge of its envelope—or beyond it , in the case of yesterday’s crash . with no margin for contingencies , even small non - technical issues such as changing atmospheric conditions or minor miscalculations in weight and balance and air density could prove deadly during a short - field departure .
running off the end of a runway haunts aircrews , but an installation of thousands of these unique blocks makes some of the world’s most dangerous runways a little safer .
just when you think all is lost , the mighty e - 2 hawkeye rises from the sea .

asn aircraft accident boeing 727 - 2j0 ( f ) adv . hk - 4544 puerto carreño - germán olano airport ( pcr )
this map shows the airport of departure and the intended destination of the flight . the line between the airports does
distance from puerto carreño - germán olano airport to bogotá - eldorado airport as the crow flies is 751 km ( 469 miles ) .
this information is not presented as the flight safety foundation or the aviation safety network’s opinion as to the cause of the accident . it is preliminary and is based on the facts as they are known at this time .
airplane hk - 4544 . departing from el dorado . source : forum contato radar - brazil
very tragic video of the 727 overrunning the runway shortly before it broke apart . urltoken . . . 9995888640
very sad . . . god knows why they didn ' t abort the takeoff .
acccording to el tiempo news from colombia , it was a cargo aircraft . two confirmed fatalities , two injuries , and one missing . main cargo was fish . aircraft was destined for bog .
the transponder 1200 group on facebook has a video of the ill fated takeoff . i ' d link it on here but have to get back to work .
i ' m trying to understand what we ' re seeing here . in the first video it overruns the runway , in the second it is airborne and manoeuvring at low level before appearing to lose control and strike the ground . it ' s hard to tell if the videos are from the same location or not . am i right in concluding it has become airborne beyond the end of the runway , attempted to turn back , and struck the ground during the process ?
it is not for him to pride himself who loveth his own country , but rather for him who loveth the whole world . the earth is but one country , and mankind its citizens . —bahá ' u ' lláh
first video something definitely sounds bad well before it rotates . the dialog of the people makes me believe it is the same point of view on both videos as they refer to the plane it ' s coming back .
it seems to be the same cammer . . . probably a helmet cam from the movement . i agree something sounds off . . . though that may also be a bad quality mic ?
those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety , deserve neither liberty nor safety .
first video : clearly hits fences but the 727 was airborne already ( wheels off the ground ) .
it seems that the plane gained altitude but was pretty damaged and crashed while attempting to circle back to the airport .
puerto carreño have a 1800m long runway ( 5906 ft ) and 173ft of elevation .
i wonder when people will understand : embraer 190 or simply e190 , not erj - 190 . e - jets are not erjs ! boeing 747 - 8 , not boeing 747 - 800 . same goes for 787 . airbus a320 , not airbus 320 . airbii does not exist .
looks like it struggled to get off the ground there on a good day . maybe they loaded a couple too many tonnes of freight for the runway length
coming back to the topic , i got 3 posibilities : 1 ) wrong load distribution ( heavy nose ) . 2 ) overweight . 3 ) wrong flap take off setup . 4 ) engine failure during take off run . the fourth i ' m skeptical because isn ' t visible any smoke from the engines or strange sounds from them .
wonder if fod damaged the engines and further made the situation even more dire ? overweight maybe ? common practice i hope not . the video of the
successful
take off is obviously not within legal safety margins . rip !
wow , just wow . there are people in that video even closer than the photographer . scary stuff .
was thinking the same thing about the engines ingesting objects . but looking at this one , it doesn ' t appear he hit the fence , only missing the camera man and another guy by a few feet .
is it me or does the plane look like they were trying to dump fuel ? hard to tell .

truly tragic and so sad . it ' s been a dreadful week for news so far . here ' s a full translation by hand and brain , rather than google translate :
they could have made it if they stayed wings level until they gained enough altitude , speed . banking the aircraft in an attempt to go back to the airport was the fatal mistake that sealed their fate . amazing that the survivor in the video could be in one piece after that .
terrible news . so much talk about old 727s this week on urltoken and then we lose one . this was an air jamaica bird originally - delivered in august of 1975 as a 727 - 2jo ( a ) . as to the questions above about something not sounding right , it sounded like a normal jt8d takeoff to me . but something was obviously very wrong with the takeoff , and i have to wonder about damage to the frame or engines during the very late rotation . my first flight was on a 727 . nw msp - atl in the fall of 1982 .
look at the little structure at 10 seconds on the right of the plane . it definitely seems like the wing struck that little structure , which might explain the bank angle in the final few seconds of the flight . i ' m trying not to speculate here , but i bet the accident was due to a combination of hitting that little structure with some engines going out .
ok , my
armchair quaterback
view on this . the engines appeared to sound normal for a 722 doing a restricted take off . while i have always admired this airline , they have a reputation of operating
on the edge
. previous videos prove that they are doing operations where there is minimal margin for error , including take offs from the same airport , where the 722 crashed . were the pilots
show boating
for people at the end of the runway and they pushed it a bit too far ? were they doing an operation where their safety margin was zero , for the flight they were operating ? while it is easy to blame the old 722 , perhaps one of the above scenarios was the real cause .
well , damn . when you ' re lifting an overloaded 727 off a short runway with barely inches to the fence , eventually something bad is going to happen .
sh . . . . , why did they decide to fly with such a large bank angle . . . not an expert , of course , but the terrain is rather flat , if they would have flown a not so agressive turn they might have made it back to the airport . . . .
excellent observation , you can even see a flash after they impact the structure . i guess this will be another case of gross negligence . i guess it is time to check what is going on with the south american airlines and its regulators .
in one of the videos you can see the no . 3 engine surging , presumably as it eats debris from the wing clipping a structure and maybe even some fencing . i doubt that engine was producing any useful thrust after that . then in the longer video you see the plane banking into the dead engine . big no no . this outfit has been known to fly over the mot . if that is true in this case also , then they were flying on just 2 engines on a hot day , flying a steep bank into a dead engine at low level while possibly being too heavy . dayum .
that should have some warning message in your post since the man wearing the gopro runs up to the wreckage and you can see at least one survivor . it is not just a video of an aircraft crashing from far away . rip to those that lost their life .
a few thoughts ; 1 . he came very close to the spotters . 2 . this meant that people were on hand to assist the first responders in identifying exactly where the injured man was . 3 . if the spotters were not there , and he had been able to hit brakes / thrust reversers , and use the fence as an additional ' brake ' , would the crew have survived .
and the nonsense is showing up , it was only a matter of time .
fly a a350 / b787 at zero feet and the outcome would be the same .
looking at all the videos of previous take - offs with this aircraft and the fatal one , is it possible that the company skimped on mro expenditure and hence the engines were way past their due ( engine ) shop date ? if so , they just wouldn ' t produce the relevant thrust needed for fully - laden take offs , even if cockpit clocks wld show relevant rpms . . . thoughts ?
looking at the previous videos and the amount of onlookers watching yesterday , it would seem that the departure of this aircraft was a regular source of entertainment for the locals . it nearly cost a lot of innocent people their lives . after recent tragedies , someone needs to take a long hard look at aviation safety in colombia . regardless of the cause of this accident , experienced airmen will have known that operating this way was highly risky . the same as filing a flight plan without sufficient reserve fuel . who knows , perhaps they were forced in to it by circumstances . rip to all the victims .
video shows flaps & slats on starboard wing are set . can ' t see the port wing . 2nd video shows a steep bank to port .

the place where you can discuss and learn from aviation accidents and or incidents .
that would likely explain the wing dipping to the right . they most likely turned round , slowed down a bit for landing and the uneven lift caught them out as we see in the video ? also , looking at the picture , is it just me , or does no . 3 have no cowling ?
one punter on avherald says the right wing collided with a small building but his video links have been removed . i couldn ' t see it in any of the videos published .
right wing crash by kori on wednesday , dec 21st 2016 21 : 37z hy , just see these video 0 . 55sec , the right wing crash the little building : this building see the 0 . 15sec this video : this cause later the right wing stall . . .
i used google translator , the video is in spanish . it gives us a clue as to what happened .
well it ' s not up to the airport authorities to install a weighing scale , that is the duty and responsibility of the handling agent . if the handling agent doesn ' t have a weighing scale then they should know how much each item that is placed on top of pallet weighs . add all that up and add 105 kilo ' s for the pallet itself and around 25 kilo ' s for the net , you know exactly how much that pallet weighs . it ' s not the
state
that has failed , it ' s the airline and their crews that have failed by allowing the handling agent to load an airplane without knowing exactly how much freight is loaded onboard the airplane .
yor right , it ' s up to the company to make sure they operate correctly and the crews should refuse to fly if they suspect the plane to be overweight . however the caa should be keeping a close eye on the operators and impose fines or suspensions when they find the operators are flying illegally overweight or other deliberate infringements , such as with lamia . i think the kid was trying to say that the operators get away with it because of bribery . the ntsb has faulted the faa many times for poor oversight , such as in the case of the hawker 125 that crashed in akron . see here
my father did not want to fly yesterday he had the presentiment that something would go wrong .
they obviously all knew something was bound to happen sooner or later . but keeping to put up with these practices is asking to get killed . the problem with south american pilots is that they don ' t have the balls to stand up and refuse to fly , because some other idiot will step in and take the guy ' s job .
these two aircraft had taken into account the prevailing wind at the airport , it says . meteorological data showed the wind from 010k at 8kt , which would have favoured a take - off from 07 .
it will be interesting to hear moertoe and raffles ' s thoughts on this as that report doesn ' t make much sense and a 4kt tailwind component is hardly a factor in the b732 / 3 / 5 which i ' ve flown but not sure about the b727 . there are a few strange conclusions in that report which to me almost looks like they are covering up for the ongoing wrong doings but i could be wrong . i have no experience on the b727 . i think moertoe is freshly back from lubumbashi , await his opinion and raffles . . .
this plane only had the
quiet wing
and hushkits installed by the looks of things , the rest of it was standard with - whatever engines , maybe - 17s . the quiet wing is for noise abatement . whatever configuration they used , ( i haven ' t seen a flaps 30 takeoff graph but one can do a flaps 25 takeoff ) , they should have been at a weight that in the event of an engine failure at v1 , they would be able to climb to 35 feet above the end of the runway .
yup - moertoe . the dead giveaway is the cameras positioned on the road around the runway end . obviously this has become a newsworthy event . . . . . . until luck ran out . . .
so , i was right , no . 3 did suffer from that impact . i ' ve been shot down of other fora for suggesting that .

decathlon group

nust’s team bgreen is the first pakistani group to compete in the solar decathlon , a 10 - series competition created by the us department of energy .

decathlon’s entry into the $ 3 . 5 billion sporting goods market will put significant pressure on current market leaders rebel and amart sports . super retail group , which owns both the rebel and amart brands , reported strong performance of its sports division in its recent half - year results . over the first half of 2015 - 16 , super retail group reported sales growth of 7 . 2 percent and ebit growth of 9 . 5 percent for its sports division ( which includes rebel , amart and workout world ) .
“we are happy with the momentum of the auto and sports divisions , which we expect will continue in the second half given no major external factors impacting consumer confidence , ” said peter birtles , super retail group md and ceo .
but mayer’s hopes of simply completing the decathlon nearly came grinding to a halt .
this year , decathlon uk would like to invite 3 customers , and a companion of their choice , to do a discovery trip to lille where they will be shown , along a group of staff from decathlon uk , the campus store in lille , a tour of the b’twin ( cycling ) , kipsta ( teamsports ) and domyos ( fitness ) brands , the innovation lab and finally attend the innovation awards evening at the zenith arena .

decathlon is also communicating the sustainability of its products through an environmental labeling scheme . the company opted for a pictogram solution representing a rating of a to e , with a color - code format from green to red that the general public is familiar with . so far it has been trialled on decathlon’s french website and 5 stores in the rhône - alpes region of france , using specific product lines . the company plans to deploy the rating to all decathlon products and use it in - store and online in every country that the company operates in , allowing customers to weigh environmental performance into their purchasing decisions .

decathlon is well positioned to make its mark in the sports - mad australian market . while super retail’s sports division has been a strong performer , it has faced little to no significant competition from other big - box style sports retailers . decathlon’s international reach , strong brand and massive product line — together with successful launches in asian markets — means that the company is poised to move in on a respectable share of the aussie sports retail market .
product - related greenhouse gas ( ghg ) emissions represented 74 percent of sports retailer decathlon ’s total emissions in 2015 . with a new goal to stabilize its emissions by 2019 , the company estimates it will need to reduce product - related impacts by 20 percent per year if it is to meet its target . decathlon says its design teams have taken up the challenge and are progressively integrating environmental criteria into the quality - price combination of all of its products .
the competition will be hosted by dubai in 2018 titled solar decathlon middle east ( sdme ) , which is aimed at students who design , build and operate a high performance and solar - powered house , according to the team’s website .
together with its online presence , the company is planning to roll out up to 35 big - box style stores over the next decade . decathlon cfo sylvain baudens told fairfax media the company has already identified six store locations in sydney and melbourne .

decathlon , one of the world’s largest sporting goods retailers , is preparing for an australian launch . the entry of the french category killer , which operates 1 , 031 stores in 27 countries across europe and asia , into the australian market represents a massive shake - up of the aussie sports retail industry . while an exact launch date has not yet been confirmed , the company plans to go live with its aussie online store shortly . the decathlon australia website states “our exclusive products will be available online in march 2016 . ”

decathlon will compete with a wide range of retailers in canada , given that it carries well - priced sporting goods as well as some related apparel categories . fgl sports ( operating under multiple banners including sport chek , atmosphere and sports experts ) , sportium , mec and sail could be most affected , and retailers such as canadian tire and walmart , which also carry value - priced sport - related product , could also take a hit if decathlon takes off in this country . competition will certainly be present at mail champlain , which currently features a combined sports experts / atmosphere space in the mall , spanning about 30 , 000 square feet . according to oberfeld snowcap’s website , decathlon’s canadian expansion plans are currently focused within the province of quebec though given its penetration in other countries , that could be expanded to other regions at some point .
decathlon’s first canadian store will open in the spring of 2018 at mail champlain in brossard , just outside of montreal . the company made the announcement in french on its newly launched canadian website , which notes that the company’s canadian headquarters are at 1 place ville marie , in downtown montreal .
decathlon boasts of range of products spanning 75 sports , including an extensive range of private - label products . the company also owns some 20 - odd sporting brands and operates a research and development division , which employs around 50 full - time researchers and registers 40 patents on average per year .

at decathlon , 69 , 000 innovation lovers of us live and share a common purpose : “to make the pleasure and benefits of sport accessible to all . ” on a daily basis , our passion brands teams design technical , attractive and simple products at the lowest possible price , that are aimed at everyone from novice to passionate sports people .
in decathlon , we believe that preserving our planet is crucial for our future . we try to always work towards green planet projects , such as :
100 green energy consumption by 2019
;
recycle waste in order to reach 0 % landfill by 2019
;
100 % freehold sites producing renewable energy with solar panels by 2019
decathlon readily acknowledges its uphill battle to accomplish annual 20 percent reductions . the company’s emissions increased by 16 percent from 2014 to 2015 – a total of about 6 million tonnes of co 2 e – which it says is running in parallel to its economic growth . that is not to say that the company did not achieve some emissions reductions between 2014 and 2015 ; it successfully reduced its emissions in france by 6 percent thanks to constructing more energy - efficient stores , and from product transportation by 3 percent thanks to optimizing loading for product containers between european warehouses . at the same time , decathlon’s report states in bold type , “we are aware that considerable efforts are still required in order to stabilise our impact . ”
decathlon ' s main mission is to make sport accessible to as many people as we can . we would like to help , inspire and guide you through your sports experiences . we believe that being active and discovering new sports every day is an important part of a healthy lifestyle . let ' s do some sports together , as together is always more fun !
in addition to water consumption and pollution , decathlon says is also taking emissions and exhaustion of resources into consideration to ensure it is designing and redesigning products to truly have lower impact . the company’s report notes that it is conducting long - term trials to improve the resistance and durability of its products to extend its products’ lifespans , in addition to trying to guide customers in their maintenance and repair .
our teammates are the engine of everything we do . that ' s why we are investing in our people and we always co - build the future of decathlon together . everyone has their say in our strategy and project ideas . we believe in the motto :
happy employees , happy customers
. currently , we have over 80 000 employees worldwide . if you would like to work with us you can check for opportunities here : urltoken
the emissions target is based on the company’s emissions in 2014 , and the estimated reductions necessary have been calculated with its growth projections in mind . decathlon claims it has been conducting annual assessments to measure its ghg across its entire value chain since 2007 ; it uses the standard ghg protocol methodology launched by the wbcsd ( world business council for sustainable development ) and wri ( world resources institute ) , and consolidates the data from scopes 1 to 3 .
an exemplary water management initiative was the development of new dying processes in partnership with subcontractors , including “dope dyed” in 2014 and “supercritical co 2 ” ( or process “dry dyed©” ) in 2015 . the latter is a closed - loop process that makes it possible to dye an article of clothing without using any water , less use of chemical products , and 40 percent lower energy consumption . 10 , 000 kalenji junior t - shirts produced using this process will be on sale in all decathlon stores for the 2016 spring - summer season .
every year since 2005 , the most innovative creations are showcased during the innovation awards . on the night , the most innovative products , for their usefulness , their technology or the usage breakthrough they provide , are presented and rewarded . this year’s ceremony takes place on october 8th 2015 at the “zénith” in lille . ten products , re - selected by an internal committee , are competing . the audience , both physically present and online ( watching on innovation . decathlon . com ) , will be able to vote for the sports innovation of the year .
the index’s defenders point out that its weightings may be arbitrary , but at least they are explicit . they serve as a starting - point for debate about the importance of safe water relative to consumer durables , say . otherwise priorities are set implicitly , and sometimes inadvertently , by the push and pull of politics . combining these deprivations into a single score , by which countries can be compared , also concentrates minds . just as the decathlon draws attention to unfashionable events like the shot - put , the mpi highlights neglected dimensions of poverty , such as sanitation , which policymakers often ignore . no weight is more arbitrary than zero .

in many people’s eyes , to be poor is to lack income . that is a good place to start in the study of deprivation , but not a good place to end . income is not the only thing people care about . and what it can buy varies a lot from one person to another . the chronically sick , for example , need more income than the healthy to lead an equally fulfilling life .
it is not easy , however , to turn these philosophical musings into workable measurements . one valiant effort is the multi - dimensional poverty index ( mpi ) , devised by sabina alkire and her colleagues at the oxford poverty and human development initiative . it begins with ten questions that appear in surveys carried out sporadically by usaid , america’s aid agency , and unicef . two of the questions cover education , two address health and the remaining six assess a household’s standard of living ( see table ) .
each of these ten deprivations is given a weight in the overall index . a household is deemed poor if its deprivations , duly weighted , add up to at least 33 % . thus an uneducated family that has lost a child is regarded as poor no matter how many consumer durables it owns . a country’s mpi is the product of both the breadth of poverty ( the proportion of people whose score is over 33 % ) and its depth ( the average score of the poor ) .
this broader brush paints a different picture of hardship than narrower measures based only on income or consumption . uganda and cambodia , for example , have been notably successful in cutting the proportion of people living on less than $ 1 . 25 a day ( adjusted for purchasing power ) , the world bank’s global poverty standard . but nepal and rwanda have done markedly better at reducing “multi - dimensional” poverty .
in 2006 around 60 % of nepalis were poor , according to the mpi . by 2011 the share was less than 45 % . the proportion of poor rwandans fell from over 80 % in 2005 to 66 % in 2010 ( the latest year available ) . at that rate of progress , nepal would end poverty by 2022 ; rwanda by 2030 .
the many parts of the index can be unbundled , revealing different patterns of progress . nepal , for example , improved health and living standards but was slower to improve education or widen access to drinking water . in rwanda improvements in access to water and sanitation accounted for a large part of its overall success . these gains would have been missed by a narrower $ 1 . 25 - a - day measure .
but what is the point of bundling lots of deprivations together in a single index if you then have to unpack them to understand how countries are faring ? critics , such as martin ravallion of the world bank , point out that the weights assigned to each deprivation are arbitrary . a country can reduce mpi poverty by the same amount either by saving a child from an untimely death or by installing a cement floor , a flush toilet and a kerosene stove . these critics prefer to use a “dashboard” of indicators , each considered separately , rather than combining them into one .

having dominated the competition from the early stages , long - time leader kevin mayer looked to be on course for gold . there were even whispers of a world record , although it was clear that was a huge ask as it would require mayer equalling his pbs in the three remaining events .
the french record - holder opened the pole vault at 5 . 10m , but aborted his first attempt , narrowly avoiding an awkward landing by instead doing a forward roll as he hit the ground . he then missed his second attempt at that height . one more failure would mean no points for that event .
on his final try , mayer achieved the required height but came down close to the bar . miraculously , it stayed on .
as if that wasn’t enough risk - taking for one day , mayer skipped past 5 . 20m and went straight to 5 . 30m but was unable to clear it .
with that 5 . 10m clearance being some 30 centimetres shy of his best , mayer’s aims of getting close to the 8900 - point mark – or even the 9000 - point barrier – have taken a hit . but his primary goal , of course , is to win and he looks on course to do that as he has a 116 - point lead with two events remaining .
germany’s kai kazmirek cleared the same height as mayer to move into third , exactly 100 point adrift of compatriot rico freimuth , who cleared 4 . 80m . kazmirek is usually a superior javelin thrower and 1500m runner , so freimuth can’t afford to take it easy if he is to hold on to the overall runner - up spot .
ukraine’s oleksiy kasyanov slipped down a place to fourth after vaulting 4 . 70m , while janek oiglane is enjoying the competition of his life . the estonian equalled his lifetime best of 5 . 10m to move into sixth .
spain ' s pau tonneson was the top performer in the pole vault . his 5 . 30m clearance catapulted him from 15th to ninth overall .
