How do pilots work together? 

This is something everone should watch and learn from. Not necessarily only people working in the airline industry.

A good way of pointing out mistakes and stuff without sounding too negative is to make it sound like both of you made the mistake. So instead of saying "Hang on, you forgot to do this", you could say "we nearly forgot to do this".

Studying engineering: I find this mentality useful for when we do projects, if someone didn’t do something or something went wrong, I don’t like to point fingers but apply the aviation’s industry “you didn’t do it, we all did it” philosophy and I believe it contributed a lot. Thanks!

Captain: please more crew resource management videos! I found the examples used informative and useful for managing the work of teams in all contexts.

Thank you Captain for the sharing. Showing respect to everyone regardless of their rank or age certainly will bring that person far. As old saying goes "our attitude determines our altitude"

Watched this one before and I still find it insightful! This is one of the things I need to pick up quickly as a junior TFO, I'm about to start my 738 initial line training next month and I must say your videos and words have been helping me a lot, to get to where I am going today. There were some really hard times on my previous training periods and your videos were just so encouraging and really inspiring, it really supported me to find the strength I need to get through all the hardship. Please keep up the good work! Salute to my Captain Mentour :) A big thank you from Taiwan.

Excellent lesson on CRM protocols, with lessons we should have learnt as we grew up. Being Respectful and Polite will always make a positive environment in the cockpit, office or any work place. Teamwork works best in a positive and competent environment, and there is mutual respect for each others abilities, and both parties (Junior or Senor) are open to learning something new. And always keep it Professional when your on the "companies clock", we're in a profession which has new innovations and procedures it should keep us focused and educated at the same time. Be Safe !

One of the most constructive video i have ever seen!!

Thanks for your great videos once again and what a perfect timing as I just started the theoretical part of my mcc course as part of my integrated course. And so interresting to hear about the bonding option with Ryanair the other day. I will definently have to look into that once i am finished with my training!

Good job Mentour. Love your channel so much 😍

I am just before Airline Assement as a cadet. I found a lot of really helpful tips in this video. Thank you

Fantastic episode! One thing I really like about aviation is that >most< of the time, the requirements and workload of the cockpit do away with the everyday bullshit. Of course no one can turn into a machine in the cockpit, personalities still play the role, but on overage, I consider that a quality work environment. Difficult, responsible and demanding but very rewarding (not talking about money)!

Captain, this is great content, im studying your material and it allows me to bring to the reality some of those kind of conceptual knowledge and apply them to my MCC course. Best regards from Colombia, South America. Keep the good work and content!

Very Well Said..

i wish every instructor i had and will have was like you. thanks

Good episode. drove me to think. thanks.

Very good video Capt. Congratulations

What you mentioned by 9:42, made me think of a CFIT (VASP 168, B727; June 8 1982 near SBFL), which could easily have been prevented, had the first officer voiced aloud something like: "mountain ahead, pull up!" I know it's just too easy to point out errors after they have happened; one thing that can be done is improve the communication.

Thank you very much✈️

Keep up the good work.

This is really helpful! I passed the first stage assesment for an integrated program and I need to show in the interview that I am capable to work in a team.

You are a smart dude.. Top video

Very good advice

Awesome!

This is important, what you said by 6:40: "... it needs to be pointed out immediately, in a way that cannot be missinterpreted...) the choice of words is crucial; take the example of this story: during an approach below minimuns, the captain asked the first officer to control the throttle and up to a point the captain said: "take-off power" and the first officer takes the power off! (the captain wanted to go around); had he said "more power, or "increase power" or "we will go around", this would be simpler but it was possible to recover and climb.

very helpful; no matter for aviation, business management and leadership. (message from Hong Kong)

Hi Petter! Not sure if you'll see this comment, as it's been a while since this video had comments. I've been reviewing may of your videos from the past 2 years as aviation is one of my hobbies and your content is really great. This time however I want to THANK YOU, as you've helped me directly handle a tricky issue at my workplace. I've been entrusted a project manager role for a organizational restructuring, and there is a team merger process in progress, but it had huge opposition form the people involved. Basically the new incident team, which is located in 2 different continents has to assign one member each, when dealing with an incident, and it's been causing frictions and did not work well. So I repackaged everything the managers did before in a nicer package, with something I learned from you - I introduced the "airplane cockpit" work model. The crew would be 2 separate, but equally important, roles, with clear responsibilities split like for airplanes: pilot flying and pilot monitoring. I explained everything I learned from you about these roles and all the benefits and this got things rolling. Things should go a lot smoother now, so thank you very much! P.S. I love your content, especially your view on crashes/incidents. Looking forward to the next episodes!

Petter's point right at the beginning is Respect for each other. In communicating respect I have used the method toward anyone with a title (especially someone I am not so comfortable with) is that respect the title even when you don't respect the person. It seems to work well in your mind when you must work with a person you may not agree with in your work. You detach yourself from the person, and appreciate the title which can work in some settings. It is the title you may want to achieve and be respected the same way.

The videos are very good!!!

Çok güzel paylaşım, teşekkürler...

Common sense, well known since two thousand years: "All things, therefore, that you want men to do to you, you also must do to them." (The Bibel, Matthew 7:12). Thank you, sir, for this fine video lesson!

Hello I wonder, how should a first officier act if he notes there is something wrong during a critical moment like a take off but the captain dismiss his concerns like in the Air Florida flight 90 accident ?

Can you do a video on the exterior lights on the 737 please

I don't know if you've covered this in another video, but I'm wondering how does the flight crew decide between the "pilot flying" and "pilot observing"? Is it just something that's decided during the flight plan meeting, or is there some kind of protocol they follow?

notif squad❤️

Hello Sir, I am a 15 year old boy from India, I want to become a pilot, and if not then some thing in the aviation industry. I have recently checked out your channel and your channel has really cool stuff. I have gained knowledge by watching aviation videos and TV programes and the internet. Your channel enhances that knowledge to a new level. Do you fly the Boeing 777? Liked.

I remember seeing this before did you re-upload the video?

Dear Mentour, do you have any recommendation or advice in order to pass a CRM assessment of any airline company?.

On certain airlines can a person (passenger) who books a flight know who the Captain and First Officer be and level of experience be?

Great videos and I really enjoy this channel! I've got a question regarding making videos in aircraft. Especially airliners. Does an airline have regulations on videoing and make Vlogs in aircraft? I've been wondering about this because there are a lot of in flight videos and explanations during flights ect. Or do the airline you work for not really care, as long as you are safe? Thanx in advanced and happy flying!

Hi Mentor, I was wondering how much crossover there is amongst pilots between Boeing and Airbus? I.e do you know pilots who fly both aircraft types? Or would a pilot typically just do the training to "convert" to another model by the same manufacturer?

An excellent discussion of CRM and how it should work. It wasn't always like that though. There was a time when 'junior' pilots lived almost in fear of Captains, especially senior ones. I've seen the analysis of many accidents, of which there are certainly many examples where, if a Junior Officer had been more assertive or vocal, an accident could have been avoided along with loss of life or indeed the entire aircraft (or two - Tenerife), still the largest loss of life in a single accident. In Britain probably the worst example of bad cockpit relations came to light in the Staines accident of a Trident, taking off from Heathrow. As a result, cockpit voice recorders which were not yet mandatory in British airliners were made so. That didn't solve the root problem however until CRM came along and began to be taken seriously. That probably wasn't too difficult in Western countries but some other cultures, notably Asian, continued their deferrence towards perceived authority (and often incorrectly presumed competence). Today, IIRC, if either pilot calls for a go-around (not sure when flight engineers were still there if they counted) then you damn well go-around ! The failure to do so, with the Captain overriding, resulted in the loss of a KAL 747 (Flt 801) on a tourist flight to Guam for example. Fatigue may also have been a factor. I can also think of one of the Gulf carriers who recruited a CRM Manager from Lufthansa (fairly sure of that) who finally left the company in protest at his advice being ignored ! I seem to remember Gulf Air losing some aircraft around that time (one, apparently for the Captain to 'save face' by avoiding a go around) although I can't say if Gulf specifically were the culprits in badly ignoring CRM. Without doubt CRM has saved lived a-plenty, but it must be taken seriously and executed correctly. Other techical innovations such as EGPWS/TAWS, TCAS and the overall general reliability increase of airliners (plus ongoing improvements in several areas) have helped but only work well with a crew that's working together in harmony. Life in the cockpit still isn't 100% 'perfect' though (and it would be foolish to imagine that it could be) and we rely on the pilots to solve the everyday problems that may pop-up. Was the loss of AF447 a result of poor CRM, training, or both ? There were failures of both for sure. Without doubt, it need not have been more than an 'incident' IMHO.

Hej Mentour! Undrar en sak, måste man vara väldigt bra på huvudräkning när det kommer till pilotyrket? Har ganska svårt för det och blir lätt stressad och då går det ännu värre. Min dröm är verkligen att bli en pilot men jag är lite orolig för det, har du några råd? Tack

Hey mentour pilot plzzz do a detailed video on about class 1 and class 2 medicals and what procedures it includes.....please

Hi Mentour, can we have a video on "Pay to Fly"? Wanted to hear your thoughts on the matter as it has stirred up controversy over the years! Thanks!

I'd love you as my life coach and counselor

HOW LONG IS AN ANNUAL LEAVE?

Am curious to know what sorts of errors require some form of reporting up official channels. Things such as a runway incursion spring to mind, but what others might there be? Cheers

As always, loved this...but exactly what does CRM stand for?

Do you think it should be "mandatory" that pilots get oriented (via company training/orientation) with each other before working together? I am aware of emergency situation where a pilot has to fill in for another schedule pilot etc... and/or maybe it might be capital intensive to do so etc... But you are on point.... basic (care/respect) for each other is priceless!!!!

What does CRM mean??

Hey mentour! How do pilots adapt to new technologies in the cockpit?

I really like your videos! I would like to be a pilot. Could you give me some advice, how should i start?

Hi Mentour, according to CRM, what do you think about the behavior of a F/O in case of captain smokes? Thanks =)

Is there a 'Live' feed tonight, if so what time?

Hey mentour What simulator do you recommend ? I use to fly with FSX but I switched to xplane11 recently and its MUCH better Have you used any of them and how do they pan out when it comes to realism?

Is it necessary to get any degree before getting ur ppl/cpl ..like any degree (not related to aviation)

CRM isn't difficult, doesn't matter which seat you occupy or what equipment you fly, simply be professional and be kind💖

What's the punishment in the cockpit for farting? Military farts cost you a case of beer.

First one

Can u talk with the pilot while u are flying?(but about other things other than the flight)for example about your family, what u ate that day haha something like that

Hi Mentour, do pilots have to know how to swim?

Notification Squad?

Even before you used the word "respect", i suspected that that must be it. And though those acts that show your good intentions, which you mentioned near the end, may seem a bit weird, and like you said, obsolete and silly, it at the very least shows you're not trying to score points over the other person.... Unless... What happens when it doesn't come across as authentic?.. I've had a colleague who got me into a false sense of security by starting kind of a discussion, but agreeing with me a lot.. And then when our manager came over, suddenly he would very strongly disagree with me.. So I would say do those things that show good intentions, but only as long as you can make it look authentic.. Or would you disagree? As someone who will never be able to be a good pilot (I did take one lesson though), but still interested in coaching people, I'm interested in your point of view on that one..

Hi sir . I am a trainee pilot plz tell me how to deal with air regulations subject?? 😰

Was CRM a result of the Tenerife disaster?

Is there a steam tonight?

i take the high road you take the low road, and i ll ...

Use a better Mike. Will definitely help out with the quality of your video. 😁

whispering is kind of odd because of the voice recorder. I mean: If the chemistry and the communication works afterwards I see why you are so happy, but from an other point of view, hiding mistakes should not be encouraged. On the other hand off course: To hear each other in a real cock pit, then you can not really whisper, so any actual communication will be on record (and be overwritten within a day or two).

You will allways do mistakes. What separates the best from the amature in my oppinion, is that the proffesionals have managed their mistakes better. Weather it be sports, videogames or in the workplace

He says the S word at 13:32

i got a question , is it just me or what ? i get the sense that their personalities are like fake ,kinda jerky ..if thats so , why?

Nah First officers just need to learn their place.. Sit down shut up and do what you are told.. Just joking.

A video that could be 5 minutes long, he makes it 15 minutos long... probably cause the $$$
