In this podcast I will discussing the question if all pilots are safe to fly and what security mechanism are availible to make sure that they are safe to fly.
I am basing this podcast on a lot of questions received. Please continue to provide me with aviation related questions to ensure that this channel continue to provide you with relevant aviation information.
Please stay tuned to the end of the podcast in order to hear the answer and conclusion of the podcast.
Also make sure to download my Virtual Reality application: Mentour 360.
It is the first VR podcast dedicated to the aviation sector and a hint of the future of aviation training. I am hoping to present the second app before the end of 2016.

As a passenger, I always want to say thank you to the pilot after travel, because of you we can have a safe and pleasant trip. And I know that I can totally trust the pilot who control our aircraft. Thank you! Your channel is wonderful, keep watching!

I respect pilots. My most positive experiences are with Delta Airlines. In the 70s I was flying with my cat. When I got to Detroit, no cat! I finally asked a baggage person where my cat was. Of course I loved her! He came back with her he told me the pilot saw her & thought she was cold, so he took her in the cockpit with him. Hero pilot! A few years back on a flight to Atlanta we were on the tarmac forever. The pilot let us know the delay was waiting on the loading crew waiting for a shipment. We started to taxi, the the pilot informed us he was going back to the gate, because they put dry ice in the compartment with live animals. I was not mad, I was greatful that the pilot realized the mistake. I contacted the airline to thank the pilot & commend him for thinking about the pets who relied on him. I also did the same for the pilot who thought my cat looked cold.

Tests for the ability to learn fast are kind of dangerous, when only the training requires this skill, but not the job. I mean: A pilot that is aiming for a long hull career should know what he or she is getting into, but I know it from other professions, where the learning curve is very step that it can attract the wrong people (people that change their field because the job is actually boring) and discourage the people that would accurately perfectly do that job as a career, but not the training. Off-course on the other hand: a pilot can do much more in his career then "just fly". By taking a management or instructor career path, there is a way to progress and use the skill to learn fast in the career. Still: It worries me when a job training is asking for the ability to learn fast (I am an electronics engineer by the way - in product development engineering we regularly face the issue of boring engineers to death while simultaneously stressing them to death because of mismanagement. The too stringent training and hiring practices is one of the core roots why people and job do not match in this field.)

Oh wow, ty! Yes! I've never heard it put quite this way or that anyone even considers this. I'm retired now, and there are several software engineering certifications in a few areas, but I doubt they've replaced the tech interview in all cases. That interview process is often GRUELING for certain personalities, used to discriminate, often erroneous, and rules out very good people time and again. The interview is often 8hrs of tech grilling by a team, plus written programming tests (sometimes even before meeting anyone). I wasn't good at these types of interviews at all, as I felt like a deer in the headlights, but that was not reflective of my skills or experience. This kind of hiring implies that your are dishonest from the start. Or that "we just want to see your thinking process" (BS!). I've had more trouble with engineers who do a tech interview impressively, but then not the job, than I have had hiring unqualified applicants who claimed better skills/knowledge than they had. Of course there are jobs where you must demonstrate codified skills, like flying, but programming is rarely black and white (does your solution work?) and there are no specified qualifications or levels for those giving the testing. They often just make it up as they like and often let a junior engr do it. In fact, one big interview with a huge software company gave me a test in an area in which I was an expert, and they weren't (that's why they were interviewing me!). I gave them a better answer than they were looking for, but the answer they wanted was naive, simplistic, and not scalable, but they failed me on it, even though I showed them why I said what I said, in detail, to no avail. They really raked me over the coals for that, so probably good thing I didn't get the job. I did get great developer jobs, in the end, but tech interviewing was a horrible experience and just writing this gives me a cold sweat, many years into retirement. That was my first interview out there and the whole tech interview process, and I think it gave me a bit of interviewing PTSD and I suffered greatly when job hunting (not PTSD in the real sense, but not sure how else to describe it). With all the tech interviews going on, amazing that such bad, untested software is unleashed upon the world these days. If tech interviews worked, you'd have at least some higher software bar!

great video and advice!

@ItsAllAboutGuitar 3 года назад

I have experience with instructors who are or were airline pilots and I don't think they are safe. The reason I say that is they skip items in the checklist. As my DPE said, "Cessna are the experts! You and I are not experts. Do exactly what's there."

@jerem0621 3 года назад

I am a Type 1 Diabetic and a huge aviation fan. It’s helped me become more fit with the thought of having a chance one day of becoming a pilot. The reality is, all I can really do in aviation is subscribe to Aviation related RU-vid channels. My AME said no chance in hades for me to be a pilot as a type 1. Pretty clear message from him.

@y_fam_goeglyd 3 года назад

That's awful for you. Having been signed off work for life in my early 30s (I'm now 55), I can feel for you. I absolutely loved working in libraries, and had hoped to return to work after my last baby was old enough, but I just can't. I'm sure that - should you feel it good for you, mental health-wise - there will be other tasks in aviation that you can do. Maybe an engineer, ATC (if you're very good at monitoring your blood sugar levels, I don't see why not), or something else at an airport, for example. Though I would understand if that would be too close to home for you. I'm also a recently diagnosed type-2 diabetic, mostly as a result of physical disabilities rendering me incapable of exercising. Gut-wrenching for a mum of four little ones at the time that the surgeons gave up on me 25ish years ago. I used to *love* hiking and swimming, and especially rescuing and rehoming ex-racing greyhounds but that had to stop. I just can't physically do pretty much anything which requires standing or even sitting in a proper chair for more than a few minutes now, and because of the way my diabetes and my physical disabilities affect me, I might have to hand in my driving licence before too long. That is my only physical connection to the outside world - rural living is great for the nerves but lousy for public transport! I'm *not* saying all this in some sort of competition with you, neither do I want sympathy! (That boat sailed a long time ago and I find having people gushing sympathetically over me to be too much to handle - but then I'm a Brit and do live up to that particular stereotype!) I just wanted you to know that a) you're not alone and many others will be in the same situation as you one way or another. I know how easy it is to feel like no one else "gets it". B) if you feel depressed at times, *don't* sit on it and *don't* feel ashamed, go see a doctor! Temporary depression is as serious as its long-term "sibling" (I had post-natal depression with my 2nd child and I'm *so* glad I went to see the doc! I could have done something awful otherwise. It did get better a lot quicker than it would have without a friendly ear and some great treatment. Moving to the countryside helped too!). And C) try to set other goals. Because I was essentially housebound as my kids were growing, and knowing that the contemporary education system had changed a lot since my own time, I signed up with the UK's Open University - if you don't know it, it's an accredited, *very* well respected distance-learning uni. I even bit the bullet and did courses in subjects I had sworn I would never touch again after school, including maths! I have a Certificate in Mathematics, another in Education, and because of the way the uni works (and back then if you were unemployed, it was free to study until you got your first degree), I was able to complete a BA Hons and most of another without paying. I had to cough up for the remaining courses but it was worth it (unfortunately my condition crashed just before I could get the honours component of the second). Funnily enough, I have been most help with my kids doing their degrees than their school work! I've proofread 3 dissertations and 2 PhD theses (one for my eldest, the other for a friend of his), the theses both being in medical biochemistry, which is something I know less than nothing about 😂 But my English language courses set me up as a damn good proofreader and I volunteer as one a lot. (Edit: since then, I've been continuing to study unofficially, as it were and my French is coming on a treat!) Maybe there's something out there that will grab your passion as much as the dream of flying did for you, but you just haven't found it yet. Good luck with your future, many socially-distant and friendly "e-hugs" ;) and stay healthy! :)

Hi! I have a question for you, that i have been wondering About for a while now: are any of the tests are the same for freight pilots, and people cary pilots? And is there any diference at all? If you are a a320 captain in a people cary plane, can you go and fly a a320 freight plane tommorow with no extra training and vice versa? Thanks for awnsering!

@adamwallace0929 8 лет назад

After watching this video it sparked some curiosity. You were saying as a whole that pilots skill sets vary, whether that may be fantastic communication and slight less proficient stick and rudder control and vice versa and basically that every pilot has their own individual strength and weaknesses in terms of the operation of the aircraft. I completely understand if you don't want to disclose however is there anything you, individually feel you could improve in terms of your job as a pilot. for example trying to sleep a little more so you feel sharper on flight days or something as simple as that. Many thanks Petter and yet again another interesting video

@nowtom19 8 лет назад

Hello Mentour Pilot, I've recently bought your awesome app and here comes my question- Is it possible to zoom in the cockpit camera while watching the videos on a mobile phone? It would be perfect to have a closer look at the PFD's, ND's, ECAM's indications, AP engaged modes, etc. I'd like to thank You so much for the podcasts. They are very valuable for me and provide a lot of usefull information. Keep Your work, Captain, and fly safe!

@curaticac5391 7 лет назад

The answer is yes in the great majority but not in all of the cases. Unfortunately, the passengers may find out after the fact, that is after the incident (or,God forbid, the accident).

@Shotsmoky 5 лет назад

As a passenger I believe the airline industry has never been safer. However. What is being done to ensure that another Andreas Lubitz never gets into the flight deck again? He obviously had severe psychological problems that he was able to keep from the company. Is there now a rule to ensure that there are always 2 people in the flight deck now. Just wondering. Another great video!

@yourganpats9278 8 лет назад

Hi Mentour! I am your subscriber and I love aviation a lot. So, I have one question to you, if you know about long haul or major airlines. Can you tell or make video about the pilot flying bases. F.E Cathay Pacific pilots may live in Vancouver, Frankfurt or London and they can be a CX pilot. How they fly and are they fly through the airline hub?

@charliehotel6687 8 лет назад

Something else about pilot safety: how should I prepare myself for my flight training If I had to struggle with air sickness as a child a couple of times? Are there any cadets you know that had to fight that problem? Thanks in advance!

@avamendez1272 7 лет назад

shreenidhi ds if you believe you are perfect, you should not be flying.

@matekochkoch 7 лет назад

When you are shure you have no weakness you are simply not able to see your own limits. At this point you are not anymore fit to fly because knowing your limits is the first step of dealing with them. If you think you have none you are either Superman or you may not be able to delegate. In the first case you dont need a plane to fly leave it to the humans in the second case you may become a risk. Inextreme cases its called Dunning Kruger effect. Google it.

I'm really thinking about becoming a pilot. I've done some research, but on most websites, they're never really straight forward. From leaving grade 12 (high school), what path and how many years of each would i need to take to become an airline pilot? (I.e. years of collage, flight school, etc.) Thank you!

@steeltrap3800 8 лет назад

I have a somewhat cheeky if inevitable question which I understand you might not want to answer, but I'll ask anyway. You said you need to be aware of your strengths and weaknesses. So, with the understanding that 'weakness' means 'not as good as I'd like to be' because, as you said, all pilots are very well trained, what would you consider the area(s) in which you'd like to improve? Similarly, what would you consider your particular strength(s)? I only ask because I'm interested in the very sensible comments you made about self-awareness, and fully understand (can't stress it enough) that saying there's something you'd like to improve in no way suggests you're not already extremely good and safe in your job; you'd hardly be flying, let alone an examiner/instructor, were that not the case. Hope you understand the spirit in which I'm asking. The idea is to see what the 'self-test and awareness' looks like, not to suggest anything else. If you choose not to answer because of the (possibly sadly inevitable) potential for people to take what you say and entirely misinterpret/misrepresent it, I understand. That's a shame because I'd find it really interesting, but, again, completely understand if you don't want to go there in this forum even if you might in a 1 on 1 conversation. Cheers

@steeltrap3800 8 лет назад

***** I didn't think you'd mind, but also could understand if you didn't answer. Reminds me of my father who was a medical general practitioner. He spent half a day ever week reading latest medical journals etc for most of his 30+ years in private practice. I suppose it's tricky to get a lot of manual flying when most of the flights seem to be run by auto pilot from ~1,000ft after take off to just before landing. Even if you do, doubt the passengers are going to be happy if you decide to throw in a few tight banking turns and rapid altitude changes, lol. Oh, and you were too modest. I did also ask what you thought your best strength(s) were. I'd be guessing comms would be one. Thanks for answering, cheers.

@aviatoradamamriche6836 8 лет назад

Hey dude great vid! I have a question: You see most nearly all of your training is done on the captains side and you are used to the throttle being on the left and using your left hand on the yoke, is it difficult once you got a job as a first officer to fly on the right side of the plane with the opposite parameters. Is it easy to transfer?

@ntgblast7670 6 лет назад

What is that thing behind you on near your right shoulder your perspective

@juandacosta7715 8 лет назад

I have something to say about this topic, now I am doing my type rating now in ams and have the LST in 3 weeks from now, I have a friend on the simulator that he is not very skillful when comes to handling the manual flying but he is really good at systems and sops which makes him a good pilot overall, I consider myself a bit above standard when it comes to manual flying but normal about systems and sops. My point is as you say we all have positives and negatives as in anyother kind of job!

A depressed pilot is the most dangerous one as we saw in German Wings disaster. How will a pilot will tell whether he/she is medically unfit? In most cases a person does not even realize whether a person is suffering from a major depression or not.

@LavO1908 8 лет назад

Hi Mentour i've been watching your videos for ever now! and i have to say they are great, i have got some kind of problem i need your advice, This is my last year in school until i am eligible to go to university. I have been told by many people that you would need to study science based subjects to fly as a pilot, or to be accepted into an airline(as a pilot). My subjects are not science based, would you recommend me to after school go study a science based subject. However i do have qualifications in maths and English as well plenty more subjects but not science. Is science required, would be my question.... i haven't a clue about physics. I do however has 9 GCSE'S and 3 A, Levels but no qualifications in Science.

@dmdx86 6 лет назад

I'm not at all interested in becoming a pilot at this point in my career (just an aviation geek) but I'm very curious about the methodology behind the aviation-specific psychometric exams. There are a lot of psychometric batteries everywhere in industry with questionable scientific basis. MBTI (Myers-Briggs) is a very famous one. I've taken MBTI exams before and though I have *thought* they were useful at telling me information about myself, other psychologists have criticized as MBTI having no solid academic or scientific basis behind them (you can Google some information about the MBTI controversy). I work in computer software design and I applied for a job one time at a company that used a psychological battery that is proprietary to the company that sells the exam system (not MBTI). I took the exam and was basically told I was unfit for a job at their company. It's rather strange because I was doing well (according to all my performance reviews) at my current job, which was basically the same sort of job I was applying for (just at a different company). I totally understand the need to weed out psychologically unwell people who might be in danger of pulling off another Germanwings but the fact that Germanwings happened to begin with tells me that the tests may not work that well and I have to wonder if they weed out people who are actually a good fit.

@NarnianLady 6 лет назад

Exactly. There was no test to stop him. I am extremely wary of psychological evaluations, as the examiners are only human themselves and not necessarily appreciative of things like emotional intelligence etc.

@HotDog12ist 8 лет назад

I know you're trying to appeal to the "general public" (the people who's aviation knowledge ends at reading a dailymail article), but I personally would like to see more "down to earth" approach to these things, right now you've created somewhat surreal image of pilots, implying that everyone basically has this perfect personality, when in reality its not like that. This only creates unreasonable expectations for pilots, from others. It might also put off some aspiring pilots, who already are doubting whether they can do this job. Just my 2c.

@wraggy 8 лет назад

+Mentour Pilot do you have any tip's for children who want to be a pilot (Me).

@Winglet757 8 лет назад

I don't understand your point, +HotDog12ist. The video describes the set of skills that every pilot should develop to a certain acceptable standard. How is that not "down to earth" ??? Thanks to these videos, the aspiring pilot can get an idea of which areas of his behavior he/she could improve, i.e.: a person who has always been a bit too shy, might get the hint that he should do an effort to improve the skill of "talking to others". He might not become the most popular person around, but he could achieve the "acceptable" level of openness to others to work in this industry. Maybe if that person were preparing to get a PhD and work in research, he wouldn't have to worry about that, for example. That's what the author of the video is trying to tell us.

@HotDog12ist 8 лет назад

Of course there are certain qualities pilot ideally should have, one of them being able to communicate effectively with the other crew member, use proper CRM etc, but that doesn't mean there are no shy pilots, or that you can't be a pilot if you're shy. My point was, that Mentour in this video, made it sound quite complicated "to be a pilot you must be able to pass many suitability tests, be evaluated by 100 people in each and every stage, even when you get your TR you will be closely monitored etc". To a person with no aviation knowledge it will make him think "wow you must probably be a perfect human being to pass all these evaluations, i'd have no chance". When in reality its much more simple.

@HotDog12ist 8 лет назад

There are people in this video's comments section already, asking whether they can be pilots if they have funny videos shared on facebook, this is what I mean :D

@thomasv-p8839 8 лет назад

Hey mentour! I really enjoyed the video! I had a question regarding about a Royal Maroc 737-700 that departed Frankfurt and rotated at a low speed and placed the nose wheel back down and then rotated again during takeoff, my question is, the airline said that atc advised of possible wake turbulence from an A330 during takeoff, which I found unusual since I find that atc would usually advise of possible wake turbulence during takeoff clearance. If atc did advise you of wake turbulence during takeoff roll, would you put the nose back down or continue? Sorry for the long paragraph.

@HotDog12ist 8 лет назад

I'm not mentour but the airline explanation is total PR department bullshit, its obviously not normal. My guess is they entered the wrong figures for some reason and messed up the t/o speeds. Incorrect loadsheet perhaps, or just pilot error entering the figures. Putting nose down after already rotating is definitely not a SOP for the 737, there is a thing called delayed rotation though, but its clearly not the case here.

@thomasv-p8839 8 лет назад

I agree. It was a very strange occurrence. I'm curious to see what really happened. Hopefully we will get the information soon.

@ryanm.191 8 лет назад

How often do people fail? What do they look for in it? Things like depression?

@ryanm.191 8 лет назад

Another thing (sorry to keep bugging you). My dominant hand is the right, and I can do much finer adjustments with with, while my left hand control is sort of crude, so why does the plane get flown by the weaker hand for many, if you get what I mean. Why isn't the joystick in the a320 for example on the left for the captain, which for many, would be a weaker hand?

I understand the good training of pilots. However, there have been many accidents due to pilot error. Just watch the crashes on the Flight Channel.

@theinfiniteflightdeck 3 года назад

They’re people. People make mistakes. In fact, most problems in any industry are often human error. The only reason we notice pilot error in particular, is because of the result of that mistake.

@erikk77 6 лет назад

Back in 1993 I was flying with my friend in a Cessna 172, who had recently got his private pilot's license (United States). I have had many Flight Simulator hours and knew the basics of flight. I was seated on the right as usual. He was not instrument rated and had to stay out of the clouds above us. So we decided on another destination. He decided to do touch and go at a nearby uncontrolled airport. After touching down he let go of the yoke and started saying firmly: *Pull up, pull up, pull up*. I was in a bit of a panic because of the surprise. After we got off the ground I made a turn to the right because soon we would be in the trees. I said $%^*&*&#@#)*%@^&%@&, next time give me a 'heads up' before you do that. Is that a safe pilot? No. Good at making decisions? No.

@9LimaAlpha7 8 лет назад

I am not sure but i think it's when a you undergo training with a training captain that makes sure you are performing at the standards that are excellent during a flight? But hey i could be wrong!!!

You said that's very difficult these days to find a job as a pilot. To apply after you get the ATP licence you need about 1000 h of flight experience. Where can I get them because I googled many airlines and none of them would hiring pilots without type rating or 1000 flight hours.

@avamendez1272 7 лет назад

Tranefine yes, it's true, 1500 hours are needed for the ATPL. most pilots after earning their CPL, IR S/MEL and CFI go on and teach. this is the most common way to build hours.

Do airline Pilots ever use "game-level" flight simulators like FS, X-Plane or P3D to practice or prepare for those semianual rechecks?

Do you have any recommendations as to where to take these suitability tests?

@VictorHahn 6 лет назад

@ Mentour Pilot: You said the medical is based on honesty and on pilots stepping back when they need to. How does that translate to... let's just say certain budget airlines, that employ ostensibly freelance pilots who lose their pay when they don't work and might just not be able to afford being honest?

@iVince905 8 лет назад

Hey mentour pilot, appreciate the videos! Just have a quick question. Do you reccomend modular or integrated training? I am currently a student going into aircraft maintenance and would just like your opinion. I work at fedex from 3am to 7am, as a cargo handler 6 days a week just to give some background information.

@DUBaviator 8 лет назад

Why are the pilots of certain Middle Eastern airlines for example I'm sure there are more worldwide tho, not speaking out about being overworked and fatigued in such a safety critical job? Seems the airlines are more interested in profit than safety sometimes or is it more of a culture thing, it really needs to stop in the aviation industry.

@osurfnafavela 8 лет назад

As always great material Mentour! I´ll be getting my Instructor´s license this November (500hs in Argentina). Your videos always keep me motivated to continue with this passion and dream of becoming an airline pilot! Thank you! I also encourage you to watch Cesar Meloni´s videos (as for photography and filming style) He is a pilot for Austral Airlines here in Argentina. vimeo.com/99793338 (this video in particular of his is awesome, always gives me goosebumps)
