#Accidents happen for a variety of reasons but in almost every case, the root cause can be traced back to something very benign, a small mistake that someone made, sometimes weeks or even months before the accident. In this video about Cathay flight 780, this will be shown in a very clear light.
I hope you will enjoy this story, my team and I have worked hard on getting all the details explained as well as we possibly could!

@TitaniumTurbine 7 месяцев назад

@@werk62 That’s fair, I’ll add that those tragedies, the ones where any passengers perished, are the most important for those in the aviation industry to learn from. In this day and age, it is unforgivable for a known defect to result in another tragedy and having history repeat itself. Considering that the last fatal domestic aviation incident in the US was in 2009 (not counting the international Asiana Airlines Flight 214 in 2013), I’d say that we’re doing a damn good job with this. I feel that we have done right by the combined thousands of people that perished in aviation incidents from the 50s to the 00s. Last year, Eastern Airlines Flight 401 finally got a memorial marker in Miami 50 years later. Now, it should never have taken that long to erect a memorial, but it shows that even after half a century, we do NOT forget the rocky past of aviation.

@@lonemaus562 You're not a pos. It's human nature, tragedy and high stakes (and the growth that comes from it) is part of life. People like stories of loss as long as something good comes from it. Titanic wasn't a huge hit because 1000 men women and children drowned, and it changed the world with every passenger requiring a seat in a lifeboat after that event. If everyone had been scooped from the water the story wouldn't have endured for a century.

@jimseevers 7 месяцев назад

I think an incident episode in the reverse of your normal script could be a great way of showing what it feels like to be a pilot dealing with something completely unexpected. Meaning, begin with a description of what the pilot experienced without the context you normally provide. Afterwards, you fill the audience in on what was actually going on as you do so well. It would really serve to highlight how stressful and fast thinking issues are within the cockpit.

@anonymous_jug 4 месяца назад

I remember on my first flight, I was an unaccompanied minor, flying from Atlanta to Minneapolis. It already started great, because the captain gathered all the unaccompanied minors up before the flight and told us that he wanted us to be safe on the flight, so he wanted us right where all of the crew could monitor and help us out if we needed it, right at the front of the plane. I started having a panic attack because of some very small turbulence, and Austin, the flight attendant sat with me and explained in coherent detail, how the plane was made to withstand quite a bit of jostling around. Maybe he saw the Dr. Who TARDIS backpack stuffed with Percy Jackson books and sketchbooks and figured I was just as autistic as he is, but it really helped calm me down. He basically turned turbulence into a game for me to listen for what was bumping around instead of an absolute terror for me. It absolutely delights me to hear when flight personnel are awarded for their work. Because not all heroes wear capes, but these ones definitely fly.

@christinegarrett7257 7 месяцев назад

Watching these videos has made me think about a flight that I was on in the mid-90s. As we were speeding down the runway to take off, the plane was shaking, similar to how a puddle jumper shakes in bad turbulence, and there were a high pitched metallic sound. I was worried because it just wasn't right. As we were about to get airborne (I could feel the beginning of the shift), the pilot slammed on the brakes and announced that there was a warning light on one of the instruments. He wasn't sure if it was serious or not but wanted to get it checked out. We went back to the gate and were there for a couple of hours. Most of the passengers groaned and complained. Some said that they'd never fly that airline again. For all I know, taking off could've been the final slice of Swiss cheese and, by aborting, the pilot stopped a disaster from happening. For his efforts, he got a lot of compaints. Seriously, I'd rather have a pilot who is more concerned about keeping the passengers and crew alive than getting them to their destination on time!

@echo_soldier 7 месяцев назад

This is why "get-there-itis" is an issue. Pilots get put under so much pressure to just get the plane to the destination on time. Good judgement call from that pilot. The best case is that it was nothing, but the worst case is a serious issue. I'd want my pilot doing the same

@Korpenko 5 месяцев назад

There are still some things to say.. They rushed into an unprepared landing without assessing other possibilities. They didn't discuss the braking and stopping. Did they anticipate that the runway was long enough ? If they had landed on a runway that were too short (and when rushing at 230kt on the runway the landing distance varies how ? Especially with an engine that has remaining thrust.. It has to be thought about) the consequences could have been catastrophic. I would have discussed maneuvering the aircraft to reduce speed, while staying in range of the field if the engine would shut down. And/or to shut down the engine at a suitable time, for example at 300ft final to allow to reduce speed to a normal range.

@jordank195 5 месяцев назад

@@Korpenko I think you're mistaken in thinking it is possible to manoeuvre the aircraft to kill speed while remaining in range to ditch if engine 1 died. The pilots would need to undergo a missed approach, and climb whilst heading in the opposite direction before attempting to loop back around to attempt to re-land. If engine 1 dies in the climb, they're screwed - they would not have enough speed or height to turn around whilst coasting. If engine 1 dies during the turn, they could still be screwed for similar reasons. But more importantly, and I quote the CAA report verbatim, "At that stage, there was no time for the flight crew to consider other strategy nor procedure to cope with such emergency situation. The flight crew concentrated on flying the aircraft for a safe landing." The pilots did an exemplary job. End of story.

@janitorrio 5 месяцев назад

@thewhitefalcon8539 7 месяцев назад

Yes, I think this separates the good pilots from the great pilots. I remember one incident where a plane had a messed up ADIRU on the captain's side, but the computer diagnosed the fault as a different system, that used ADIRU data, but the captain's instruments were also messed up. The autopilot also did something bad because it was using the faulty data. A good pilot follows the checklist for whatever fault was a displayed, but a really great pilot, with excellent systems knowledge, might have realized the autopilot used the same data as his flight displays, and switched to the FO's autopilot only, or even thought to switch to the backup ADIRU.

@mandowarrior123 7 месяцев назад

I'm not sure its nerves, it genuinely sounds FUN. Not the high chance of death part but the flying part. Surely pilots still have that little bit of thrill there i'm sure. Perhaps I'm mad, but once that runway was in sight it's just all skill. No more checklists. I don't think it's time for philosophical panic, but the time for passion.

The scripts alone have gotten so good at building suspense and telling a captivating story! I really noticed that on one of the recent videos, about an incident where the accident sequence was started by the FO touching a wrong button or lever with his wristwatch. I don't even remember exactly what button it was, but I do remember that in the beginning of the story, Petter had included an innocuous scene where the FO checked the time on his nice and heavy expensive wristwatch during the pre-flight preparations. In screenwriting, that is known as "Chekov's gun" - an object that is introduced early on in an inconspicious way and returns much later to become highly relevant to the story (think of weapons or gadgets that are shown early in an action movie and then get used by the hero in the climax for a winning blow against the villain). It is often used by screenwriters to foreshadow later events in the movie early on, or to make sure that when a device is used to disrupt the course of the movie (e.g. to turn the tide in the climactic battle), it doesn't feel like it comes out of nowhere and the audience doesn't feel cheated. It's remarkable that Petter uses screenwriting techniques like this these days.

You gotta credit the layered safety systems that were left - the flaps 2 relief position working correctly to allow for max drag, the APU, the RAT, the wheels surviving impact at twice the rated speed, the engine cowl surviving contact with the tarmac. Plus the long runway and the firefighters of the airport of course.

I was anxious, feeling deep fear, crying and cheering them on and then laughing with tears in my eyes when the Airbus finally came to a full stop. One of the most emotionally exhausting 42 minutes in my life. No need for movie channels when we have RU-vid with Mentour Pilot.

@davidbrayshaw3529 7 месяцев назад

I had the great honour of sitting in the right hand seat of a Captain Scott Thomson's personal light aircraft, several years ago. He was a Cathay 777 captain at the time. Despite not being a pilot myself, I've had a bit of experience in light aircraft, enough at least to know how utterly professional that Scott was at the controls of his own aircraft. And that was only with three on board. He left absolutely nothing to chance. Despite my lack of qualification, at every point of the flight he had me confirm instrument readings, bearings, landing gear status etc. And he had a plan A, B, C, E and E, for every eventuality, which he vocalised prior to take off. To top it off, he performed the most stunning cross wind landing on a very short unsealed runway. A true consummate professional. If that's the sort of pilot that Cathay employs, I can assure you that you are in very good hands.

@CarinaCoffee 3 месяца назад

Petter's narration is always keeping me on the edge of my seat, but the added visual simulation takes this to another level. When the captain applied manual breaks and the entire cabin simulation shuddered, well that was like I was right there with the flight crew. It reminded me of the emergency breaking we had to do in driving school, where you have to come to a complete stop from 40 or 50 km/h.

@mityaboy4639 7 месяцев назад

What i like about this story is that the crew kept communicating and remained focused on the problem without artificially increasing stress by injecting their fear into the conversation. And that they kept the cabin crew also informed and ready. which means the pilots had capacity to think about the job of the rest of the crew rather than being all consumed by the workload they were under. especially when they figured out that they cant even glide to the airport (before engine one decided to rejoin)

@jonhu4127 7 месяцев назад

That entire crew were heroes that day. Even though the flight crew probably didn't receive the same accolades, their jobs had to have been equally difficult. Great job by the pilots working through the stress and by the cabin crew to get everyone off the plane alive with minimal injuries. Gotta love hearing that this incident ended with everyone walking away, new procedures from lessons learned, and recognition for the gentlemen in the cockpit that day

Hi owner of Mentour Pilot. Hopefully you see this message but it isn't a problem if you do not. Thought it made sense to remind you of the type of positive impacts your channel has. We are currently in Spain, this is the first time my mother has ever been to another country. As I understand it she was terrified of the thought of flying. I started watching your channel like mid way through final year of university and liked to talk to my parents about the videos, specifically those looking at the various systems on board an aircraft. As a result of those videos my mother is now completely comfortable with flying. So my thanks to you and your channel for providing me that content in an easily understandable format. It allowed me to explain to her how safe an aircraft actually is thanks to these systems and what about those systems makes it that safe. This is one of the reasons why you have the subscriber count you do. May that count continue to grow for years to come. 😎

@redyau_ 7 месяцев назад

I have enormous respect for the people who investigate and put together these final reports. You mention often that after smaller fault indications the root cause is not found - but much later, somehow someone puts it together. It's easy to take the truth for granted, but somebody actually had to find out about it, and that's no small feat!

@aaronseet2738 7 месяцев назад
