Glad it helped!

This was a fun approach!

I was able to get the DC-6 in on my second go with some questionable visibility. The first one I can blame the sim ATC since they assigned an altitude that put me straight into a mountain haha 😅

I’ll tell you what, when you’ve matured a bit and have a few thousand more hours under your belt, we can have this conversation again and see what you think then, if you make it that far. Until then I can only recommend that you consider carefully what you’re uploading for people with less experience and skill levels to see. The people who are impressed by this and the people who are trying to learn from you and other aviation content online will have a large overlap. Something to think about…

@@Taylair no pilot should go out and try something just because they saw it on TH-cam, just like they wouldn't attempt a demonstration at an airshow. How many thousands of hours do you have under your belt anyway?

That's not really how it works if someone considers you an authority on something or looks up to you. Not sure how much teaching you've done, but you can spend a lifetime trying to enforce safe good decision making, and the second a student sees you do something "cool" or cutting a corner of some sort, that's what they want to copy. I've not totalled up my hours since last year but somewhere around 7.5 - 8k now and have had people I know lose their lives and/or waste perfectly good airframes because they made a poor decision when there was a much safer alternative available. It's almost always the decision making that gets people and this is where the training lacks any real substance. Perhaps you might have a decent platform to improve this gaping hole in GA training with the large following you have.

Matt did a cool thing or two, he went around the world. But he seems to have caught the invincibility delusion. I hope he realizes this.

I haven't gone digging... I don't think I want to!

@@Taylair Yeah - for sure. There was one he did in his L-39 where he was low on fuel, but decided to try to weave his way through storm build-ups, rather than turn back or make an extra stop to fill up. Not near as dramatic to watch as this landing, but the same reckless decision making. Yikes!

I only heard of him a couple of days ago when someone asked me to look at this scenario. The couple of things I watched gave me Trevor Jacob vibes...

I agree, it pains me to see how reckless he is becoming. Compare him to other aviation youtubers like FlightChops who have a very safety-first mindset and it looks downright dangerous.

I had to when I saw it!

Thanks for watching!

MSFS 2020

Thanks for watching 👍

It would be nice if they finished MSFS 2020 first wouldn’t it?

No

@@Taylair I didn’t think so

I am not a fan of the high viz 😂

@@Taylair video request: Look up mattguthmiller and his latest genius manoeuvre. What do you think?

@@OfficialSheffieldCouncil are you talking about the formation flying into Oshkosh?

@@Taylair oh there’s that and the one where he changes runway whilst 50 feet above the current runway banking at about 45 degrees. He uploaded it to instagram 29th May entitled “what would you have done?” He’s getting roasted for it.

@@OfficialSheffieldCouncil oh I’ll have a look

Glad someone appreciates it 😂

Thank you! Will do!

Thanks 😂

It’s a tear drop for me

Glad it was helpful!

Have another look 😉

Lazy magenta liners!

Actually it’s very common for truckers to be recorded by their companies, and most buses do too (at least where I am). They will often have both a dash cam and a driver cam.

On your first point, you are pretty much saying that the cameras haven't changed anything in the police... So maybe it hasn't worked so well. It's a different situation anyway, the cop camera is filming direct communication and confrontations with the general public. Like I said in the video, the aircraft is monitoring and reporting every single thing we do, this is much more useful and objective information than looking at a limited view from a camera. You have complete personal control over the dash cam so the comparison isn't valid in my opinion.

I don't think there's anything wrong with privacy, at home or at work. If you disagree and think privacy is just entitlement, feel free to livestream your entire house and your office to the internet, you won't find me doing it though. Pilots are more monitored than any other job already even without video recorders. Video would mostly be used to go after individual pilots in law suits for money, with bs like our expert thinks he did this tiny bs technicality wrong, and when you ask 10 pilots about it you get 5 different answers. But i think cheesy has the most on point answer, it's pure jealousy, you can hear it. Misery loves Company.

Thank you for your comment, I'll be sure to hand all my pilot licences back as I clearly don't deserve them

I agree with @gajofre. YOU are a biased, entitled “pilot”.

@@Taylairhave you handed it back yet, or were you lying about that as well? Do you think you’re better than the rest of us?

@@Aviationnerd857get bent, loser

Better than the "checkride manoeuvre" way of doing things, yes

What happened on the Germanwings?

I’ll tell you exactly what happened….oh wait I can’t….there weren’t any cameras! We need Flight Deck Cameras!!

Did you even listen to any of the points I raised?

I think it would create a distracting atmosphere that would hinder critical decision making due to excessive second guessing. Give someone a task to do without a camera and then get them to do the same task with a camera and tell them if they screw it up, the video will be reviewed and their actions scrutinized by a board of judges and watch how different the results are.

@@Taylair I mean, you could say the exact same thing about voice recordings

Video recording is a way more visible intrusion which is likely to cause more of a distraction and will add nothing to the flight data which records absolutely everything we do in the background without us being visually reminded of it by a device pointed at us in the flight deck.

I think the video would only be stored temporarily and overwritten unless in the case of an accident, just like voice recording. So there wouldn’t be constant monitoring, just extra information in the case of an accident. I see nothing wrong with this, and I think it’s a good idea. I’ve reviewed countless crash investigations and sometimes there is a lot of guesswork that has to be done due to the lack of video.

Same people that were reporting their neighbors for going on too many walks in one day during the lockdowns I bet! 😂

Perhaps you’d like to copy and paste your browsing history and google search history for the last 6 months into the comments section here too!

What would really be gained over cockpit voice recorder + black box storing all control movements and aircraft movements.

A lot actually. We would know who pressed what button not just that it was pressed, where each pilot was looking and when (did they see xyz displayed ect), what the instruments were displaying in the cockpit vs the data recordings of what they should have been, who was inside on the instruments and who was looking outside for traffic, if one or both of the pilots nod off and for how long, if any inappropriate or unapproved items are brought in the cockpit, and probably more I can't think of off the top of my head. Oh and it would be another redundant sorce of data incase some is destroyed in a crash.

@@X85283 tell me where the MH370 went?

@@Aviationnerd857 tell me how that has any relevance to adding video recording in the black box?

@@X85283 it would be like WhatsApp video call or a Skype video call or FaceTime where the live feed goes straight to company HQ. And then they hire someone to keep watch on those pilots
