If i was the F/O. After evacuating the aircraft I would have said something like, "so... John... u know whats the difference between a flight engineer and a captain?.... there is none, both are assholes"
Ah! I just found this in the accident report: "The aircraft was also equipped with a Collins Radio Company model 642C 1cockpit voice recorder CVI2 it was located in the rear of the baggage compartment The CVR and its recording medium were destroyed by ensuing ground fire." So perhaps this reenactment is based on interviews with the flight crew.
Copilot you know what they will call a flight engineer in 15 years Flight engineer “ what” First officer “ iPad “ Flight engineer “ I don’t get it “ First officer “ don’t worry in 15 years you’ll remember this stupid joke every time a big jet flys over your house and you’ll get it “
Yes, this captain - along, undoubtedly, with many others of his era - suffered from a lethally bad case of “stripe-itis.” Nowadays, with CRM, this attitude has been largely eradicated, but I’d hesitate to say it has been completely eliminated, particularly in nations where total deference to rank and authority is still very much the cultural norm.
The absolute best cockpit safety procedure that was added years after this terrible crash was either pilot being able to announce go around and the pilot flying has to go around.
@@ariel340 Has nothing to do with this accident though has it? The report in your link details a CFIT into a mountain on approach while the video is of a runway excursion of the end of the runway...
@@robertforsberg3108 It could be this accident, Alaska Flight 60 at Ketchikan. However the Captain's name isn't John, I guess they changed it to protect the guilty www.ntsb.gov/investigations/AccidentReports/Reports/AAR7620.pdf
After the duck joke, copilot could have turned and said this . “That’s why your sitting sideways Rick “ Could have been the greatest one liner comeback in history.
So what? It's not like a go around is dangerous, if there is a doubt it's always safer to go around, besides, pilots with experience can get too confident and forget basic safety rules. There is nothing wrong with a 1month FO telling a 47 year "veteran" 747 pilot to go around.
@@jajai6377 The Go Around is not dangerous but probably costs the company $5,000 extra.... the point is you can never be questioned on a go-around... no executive or chief pilot can ever question your decision. I see you get it.
