What PILOTS do AFTER the Engine FAILS in Cruise?!! 

I'm one of them. :-P

Gordon Lawrence I do to. And enjoy the dog's antics too in the background. And the plants and the lamps and the color of the cushions. There is so much going on plus the wonderful lecture in hope that one day I will be a hero in landing the aircraft'

Good question, self a ship capt but not airline capt but can corelate to the flying capt very easily due to extensive exp as a ship capt for over 20yrs as of now.

Gordon I do as a ship capt but not as a airline capt, have seen videos understand most of it as shipping is also very high stress job with multitasking all the time.

Gordon that would be me! I find learning things that I don't have knowledge about his fun.

Great to hear!

Thank you! That’s great to hear my friend!

Excellent! I’m glad it answered your questions!

It is indeed!! Glad you noticed!

Hey EVERYONE ... PAY ATTENTION. Patreons contribute to this channel and Peter has chosen to use those funds to upgrade his equipment (he let us know recently one the Patreon discussion channel). DON'T BE CHEAP, add a modest Patrean contribution. If 50% of those who both love this channel and can afford $1/month would do so then: a. Our friend/Capt would have greater financial security and we WOULD HAVE MORE GREAT CONTENT. (Besides, in you contribute, you can be sanctimonious like me 😋)

@Alex It is better, but it looks like his focus point is off though - face is slightly soft, but background is sharper.

Try telling your wife what to do?????? Good luck!

you can only use that kind of communication with an imported submissive wife from a 3rd world rural prefecture...the rest of the ''liberalized'' modern women will not tolerate that

@@fidelcatsro6948 you would definitely get an engine stall.

Well let's see, N nature of the problem, I intention on how to resolve...where is F feedback?!?

At least if it's something important, like the keys.

youre a lucky cat!! Praise God Almighty you survived this!

@@fidelcatsro6948 Indeed. We were literally flying on fumes on final approach to Castroville Airport.

Simple really, just takes money and time. More money than time. Go to your local small airport and there are usually flight schools there or Google flights schools near you. Thats how you start

RU-vid1 to the flightdeck

I've been wondering about this, too!

Good! That’s what I was going for!

Thank you!

For ETOPS you need to be able to get people from the airport the plane landed at to their original destination

I think so. If I recall correctly, Mentour said in a previous podcast that once the captain declares an emergency/calls mayday, the pilots are allowed to do whatever they deem necessary to land safely.

except area 51...only UFO's allowed there,

Yup. Military airports are fair game in emergencies, provided the runways are good (long/wide/etc) enough.

@@DrunkHog so you are allowed to land at Kennedy space center (I guess) or area 51 if needed... But in an emergency pilots would land in a field, if needed (as mentioned in the video about a pilots worst dream)

Excellent!

Hahaha! I really hope not

I recall that the idea has been played with in various films where someone with so many hours on a PC based Flight Simulator has taken the role of Pilot In Charge. Then there is the scene in Flight Of The Phoenix (1965 & 2004) where a plane that has crashed in a desert is rebuild by an engineer of (shock-horror) model or toy airplanes....

better still a good pious pilot will make announcement ''please pray for our safety''

Reverse thrust isn't required and alot of the time planes don't use it and instead use brakes.

Anthony C. I don‘t know. They would probably be fined a lot of money. That‘s for sure. Maybe they get a fixed fine or in accordance with fuel. If a passenger is that disruptive to cause an emergency landing, airport police would probably be called and have that person prosecuted.

New CAMERA!

@@MentourPilot moving up in the world 😉😂

@@MentourPilot Congratulations on the new camera!

No dogs. Did you sell them to buy the camera?

Andy Charlton I see a dog. (And Patreans helped fund the improvement. Dunno if our celeb reached into personal funds, but he certainly reaches into personal time to inform us)

Thank you Ian! It warms my heart that you show so much engagement!

Petter, my pleasure. I am no aviation person, I make the 737 Jurassic look young but fair play to what you are trying to achieve. If something is adding so much it is well worth supporting. Being a Patreon or even paying for the odd super chat is well worth it, how much do people pay for downloads etc> Dont forget the family who put up with the time you devote to the channel and of course the dogs.

RELEASE THE MONGOOSE!

Kill them with fire before they lay eggs!

Cuddle with them. They like your body heat. But probably you won't be able to access them in their boxes in the freight area.

don't blame if if they lay eggs inside you and eat everyone

Airbus uses a joystick to fly. Boeing planes use a flight yoke. So it would be awkward at the least.

@Aessandro 7432 There is a Mayday episode on youtube over this one and also a movie made, i am sure you will find all your answers watching theses.

Transat 236 still had one operating engine providing thrust when it was 150nm from the Azores. The second engine had it's flameout (due to fuel starvation) only 65nm from the airport the flight diverted to (Lajes Air Base), at 33000 feet. The engine-out glide ratio for an A330 should be 15:1, meaning at 33000 feet the aircraft could theoretically glide for approx. 80 nm miles, without engine thrust, until it reaches sea level. So it was a close call, but within margins, and the captain was an experienced glider pilot, what may have helped a lot too. Regarding electricity, most aircraft do have alternate ways to produce electric power in case the regular source for electric power fails (i.e. engine generators or APU). On most aircraft (like the A330) this is provided by a ram air turbine (RAT; generator with a propeller, like a small wind turbine), which usually deploys automatically when electric power is lost. The RAT is able to power the most essential systems and enable at least a minimum of maneuverability, but the aircraft will become less responsive. Completely without electricity an aircraft like the A330 could not be controlled, because it is fly-by-wire and there is no mechanical connection from the cockpit to the control surfaces. So without the RAT, the flight of Transat 236 would not have had such a fortunate ending.

Yep, that will be done.

Because if the last engine fails we would have a huge problem. We always land as soon as possible if we are down to only one, critical, system. Same goes for electrical and hydraulics... and pilots

Kinyo....you're joking right..........2-1=1.....1-1=the glide ratio of a brick....

Unfortunately we don’t. Some aircraft do but not the 737

@@MentourPilot Ah I see. Thank you for the reply. 😎

Mentour Pilot Is it the A380 that has that tail-mounted camera? For the life of me, I can’t figure out why every airplane built after, IDK, 1990 doesn’t have that at least for the pilots. I’d probably add one on each side up aimed down the wings, too.

its a shame the aviation industry does not incorporate such cctv monitoring access to pilots as standard equipment in an age where such technology has become so cheap and reliable

The A350 also has a tail mounted camera.

My crew would deal with that. They are trained to do so.

@@MentourPilot Can we please have a collaboration video with a member of the cabin crew. Maybe a No.1 to see the interaction involved either side of the door and what Cabin crews frequently have to deal with and what they're trained to do?

The door at the back of the cabin is ideal for dealing with panicking/troublesome passengers

kordell curl Yes, but you must notify atc you are doing so.

lakshmi narasimhan You will still appear on atc radar but no voice can be heard. You will squawk 7600 on your transponder. A transponder is a little thing that relays information to atc radar (flight name, altitude, position, etc.) a squawk Code is a little preset code (4 numbers) that you put into your transponder to help atc indentify airplanes. 7600 is the worldwide code for lost radio/no radio contact. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can really do apart from the above. You can try calling them on the telephone, but it usually only works with small airplanes (Cessna). Not a big jet that just just crossed Ireland and is headed towards North America over water.

@@abbysnowmist thanks. That was informative

lakshmi narasimhan You‘re welcome.😄
