People now just blow my mind. Haven’t they ever heard “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all”! Good grief, Trump hater, Trump lover GROW UP AND BE A GOOD HUMAN BEING. WE all occupy the same rock spinning through space
My son started his PPL training at El Monte in the LA area. The airspace around there is crazy busy and there are a ton of airports all over the place. It helps a lot to have someone in the right seat who knows the land marks.
In the first scenario [Hawaii] I think the misunderstanding is that the pilot DID see the airport [he stated "beacon"] but conditions changed. Sure, he might have mentioned that tidbit of info, but he is stressed, and may have been told that ATC will do 'everything' they can to help him, which is becoming difficult due to lack of comms [really understanding] between the two. As to the 300 ft deviance in altitude, pilot MAY well have had info Charlie, and may have reset his altimeter, but still.... flying a mile in any direction can result in a different barometer [altimeter] reading due to the storm. Probably not obvious to the controller 'flying' his desk.
You can hear the reluctance of the pilot to admit his situation. As _I_ understand it, admitting a mistake [especially for a professional] has very bad social and professional repercussions. Culture, as I understand it.
I have anguished over asking this. But are you a real pilot? One video you are wearing 3 bars and others you are wearing 4. Never see you flying nor do we see the airplane livery. Just curious.
Sadly, I recall a video about 2 acft receiving the "RA", but only one complied and the other followed the controller's instruction... with sadly predictable results.
74 Gear, irresponsible! you are no different than others claiming others for irresponsible contents just for the sake of viewers. The foundation of these mishaps is irresponsible manufacturers.
What if the guy that stepped over the other guy may have had a connecting flight and this flight was landing late. I generally just wait, but I’ve told the passenger next to me that I really need to get off and run to my next gate. This step-over guy didn’t say anything (that we saw on video) so yeah, he was wrong.
Remember that most of these pilots English is not their first language. The controller was talking much too fast for non native speakers. Why do the controllers not send the instructions by text?
NASA is always showing "images" of "satellites in space" with the Earth in the background, but what they will never show you is an uninterrupted video recording of them zooming from outer space all the way down to street levels showing vehicles moving and people walking down the streets of a recognizable city or town, because that would be impossible, they never have done it, never will. Now watch all the Baphomet slaves come to the rescue of NASA.
"NASA is always showing "images" of "satellites in space" with the Earth in the background," Such as? "but what they will never show you is an uninterrupted video recording of them zooming from outer space all the way down to street levels showing vehicles moving and people walking down the streets of a recognizable city or town, because that would be impossible," That's right, it's impossible. Because the bandwidth required is excessive. We have impressive detail from single images, sure. But they get renewed every few months at best. Video at 30 frames per second of even one city at that level of detail is way beyond satellite transmission abilities. "they never have done it, never will." Yeah, you're quite possibly right. For the reason I just gave. "Now watch all the Baphomet slaves come to the rescue of NASA." LOL, trying to poison the well? And of course you'll never admit you just keep posting these claims without ever acknowledging that you've been debunked each time.
Wait a minute what you just explained, you are telling me if you pay for a seat and two people take up your physical space in your seat you have to share your physical body with their physical body for 2 hours that sounds illegal and against the contract and take it that you paid for that says that you have your own seat? Furthermore I thought the airlines were tired of getting shafted by obese people taking multiple seats up so they started charging them for oversized seats? That's ridiculous for you to say that somebody can put half of their leg on my lap or something while I'm sitting in my chair😅😅😅
Her husband looked completely embarrassed and he also never said a word. How anyone thinks they can come on a plane and try and shame some one over a shirt is crazy. I really felt bad for her husband because he not only lost his dad, but his wife embarrassed him in front of a plane load of people. Did you all see her eyes when she was yelling at that young man? Deranged looking!! I hope her husband gave her an earful when he got her alone.
Great video! Love that the pilot in the Cessna owned up to the error. (There's an awesome word in Finnish for those that nitpick grammatical/syntax errors. It's "pilkunnussija". I'll leave it to those that might be interested to look it up. 🙂)
My ATC sim with ChatGPT. ATC Simulation Summary: Your flight as a Boeing 747 pilot was nothing short of an action-packed thriller with a dash of dark comedy. Here's a recap of your high-flying adventure: Pushback and Taxi: You began with a textbook pushback and taxi to Runway 27, ready to conquer the skies. So far, so good-smooth as silk. Takeoff and Climb: Cleared for takeoff, you ascended to 10,000 feet. But why stop at normal when you can have extraordinary? Things quickly spiraled from routine to "Hold my coffee and watch this." Engine Fire Drama: An engine fire broke the monotony, and the co-pilot's hair spontaneously combusted. You handled it with aplomb, though the co-pilot’s new bald look might be a fashion statement we weren't prepared for. Structural Mayhem: Losing a wing and leaking fuel? No biggie. Your plane was in more pieces than a jigsaw puzzle. Yet, you descended with grace (or at least attempted to) at altitudes usually reserved for birds and kites. Passenger Ejection Surprise: In a move straight out of a disaster movie, you decided to lighten the load by letting a passenger take an early exit. Definitely not in the standard operating procedures, but hey, desperate times. Landing Attempt - Take 1: Approaching Runway 27, only to find another plane hogging it. Clearly, runway reservations weren’t honored today. You skillfully avoided a game of bumper planes with a go-around. Unconventional Landing: Finally, you landed-upside down, of course, because landing right-side-up is too mainstream. The playground received your missing wing, a gift for the kids, and the co-pilot rediscovered his inner child on the swings. MacGyver Moment: In a miraculous feat, you reattached the wing and refueled using the local petrol station. Ascending back to 10,000 feet, you left the co-pilot swinging, probably contemplating his life choices. Second Approach and Land: Descending back for another approach, you narrowly missed another plane. You landed safely on Runway 27, making it clear that you can’t be kept down (literally). Emergency Response: Reporting the head fire, you managed to keep your cool, even when everything else was heating up. Emergency services arrived, probably in awe of your ability to turn chaos into a controlled landing. In summary, you navigated through one crisis after another with the finesse of a circus performer, keeping the humor and sarcasm alive. Your flight will be remembered as a legendary saga of sky-high antics and unexpected landings. Ready for another round, or should we write a screenplay about this one?
Congrats Capt. Kelsey on you 4th stripe! This channel is for aviation enthusiast of aviation, not for idiots. I wish TAS had a Magnatometer that could reject this idiots that interfere with people that are interested in lerning about aviation from a reliable source. Thank you Kelsey for the flying knowlege you share with us. PS I know how to fly an airplane- had my private ticket when I was 29...I am now 83 but as an airline emplyee I spent hundred of hours, as airline emploee, trying to get to my destination (jump seat), when the paying seats were all full and the captain ws kind enough to put up with my presence... On the other hand it is interesting to hear the IDIOT comments for a giggle... We all need a giggle now and then.... Again, than you Kelsey...you bring a lot of joy to a LOT of people.
It’s funny cuz Pilots are Like the Dads/Moms of the air on a long road trip 😂“If you don’t settle down I’ll turn this car around!” Too “if you don’t settle down this plane won’t leave the ground! Or we turn around”

We have a therapeutic society now, and, as a 71 yo female, I blame feminism for the weakening of our boys and men. This has to stop. And to see that man on a talk show explaining how much men need to get all of this therapy, just makes me want to throw up.
It's a team, and that's the takeaway from this. I agree. I am not a plumber, I work and appreciate my plumber all the time to keep me up to date to understand how to keep homes safe. I am not certified to plumb without red seal supervision, BUT when I spend time understanding the process, I know how to identify issues and problems from THEIR point of view, and safety codes. In industry, we are all on the same boat. Also, I really get annoyed with people that are abusive to cabin crew who are highly trained for passenger safety. Most people think they are there for drinks. I don't believe that is in anyway the case nowadays.
Hey Kelsey, with the ‘vapor clouds,’ that wing creates, you are 100% correct about temperature reduction playing a role but don’t forget that temperature reduction is a consequence of a massive low pressure zone created by that wing via the Venturi effect. Note that low pressure at an atmospheric level causes precipitation. Therefore these vapor clouds clouds are appearing not only because of the temperature drop but also because the pressure drop causes those water molecules to conglomerate in a way where they are undergoing the early stages of precipitation because the air can no longer retain that vapor absorbed given the massive immediate pressure reduction.
Kelsey is correct. Flying into JFK means you need a very strong grasp of English, because it will be fast and slurred. However, the fact is that the controllers there are terrible as far as understanding them if you are not from the area. if you have not practiced listening and understanding NYC controllers you will quickly be lost as far as understanding them. I do notice that TV announcers across the nation have that 'nowhere' accent, achieved through many hours of practice. I'm not sure I understand why ATC controllers are not required to do have the same training when clear communications saves lives.
