    Your ability to explain and simplify Airbus systems whilst you're only rated on a Boeing 737 is underrated and you're probably explaining it better than some Airbus pilots.

Funnily enough, our government even sponsored a film about this event, it came out last year. Me and several friends from my group were really excited to see how awful it would be - and it was awful indeed. Whoever wants to watch, the name is "На солнце, в полях кукурузы".

      Here in Sydney, Australia, we have several species of birds that recognise the audible door closing warnings on our public trains and they will jump on or off to travel by train to the next station. Pigeons are especially good at this. They will jump off the train, grab food or at least look for it and then jump back on as they hear the audible warning message play.

    Additional reason for slow rotation could be that they flew A321. In Russian companies there is a wide known and applicable technique to rotate slowly and hold a bit at pitch 7.5 on A321 to avoid tailstrike, though this is not an official procedure. And the fact that it took 3 years since the accident for the report to be written is pretty much self explaining. After pilots were honoured, authorities didn't really wanted to reveal the truth about "heroes", but we, the Russian pilot community, knew that it was an Airbus aircraft who saved the day. And because of this very attitude of the authorities this very same airline had another forced landing because of poor crew performance several years later. Looking forward for a video about that accident from Mentour team. And thanks for this one.

    Note to self: choosy fliers choose Airbus. I was unfamiliar with this accident. When you started talking about angle of attack, and the captain's inputs, my head went straight to the laws of physics, and I thought they were going to get so far behind the plane they'd stall it. Then you said alpha floor protection, and I was so relieved. Yes, Airbus was the real hero here. This accident radically changed my opinion on those protections.

    In the Miracle on the Hudson, Captain Sully called for APU start as soon as he suspected that both engines might fail. Starting the APU before the ECAM actions called for it ensured continuous AC electrical power and no ram air turbine deployment. As soon as the RAT deploys, there's no more Normal Law for the rest of the flight, even if the APU generator comes online seconds later. Without Normal Law, there's no Alpha Protection. Engine 2 is the hero of the Ural flight. This crew would have been in Direct Law with the gear down if they lost that engine, and they surely wouldn't have managed an off-field landing without fatalities if not for the computers holding alpha max. Frankly, Sully probably couldn't have either. His quick call on the APU was brilliant.

    • @alexlowe2054
      @alexlowe2054 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +86

      This. I'm so tired of people discrediting Sully, when a less experienced pilot wouldn't have thought about the APU, and might have made a completely fatal and failed decision to try returning to the airport when it was already too late to make it back safely.
      Sully has zero chance of flying his plane, because he had zero engines. Meanwhile, this pilot crashed a functional plane due to a critical error. Sully managed multiple coherent messages to air traffic control, while this pilot only managed a single message with little information. Sully's copilot, Jeffrey Skiles, managed to complete the entire engine failure checklist before the crash, which investigators found difficult to do in simulations. Meanwhile, this copilot never managed the basic job of making sure the landing gear was up.
      This flight was in an uninhabited cornfield, while Sully's plane failed in the middle of one of the most densely crowded places in the world. These pilots flew a straight line with no real troubleshooting, while Sully and his copilot made multiple navigational decisions to return to their original airport, then abort and make an emergency landing in the Hudson. Sully gave a brace for impact message to the passengers, while this pilot didn't utter a single word to his passengers.
      There's a world of difference between these two crew members. Here, we see how an incompetent captain managed to crash a plane that could have flown, while Sully shows how many useful and important actions a captain can take in a handful of minutes. Yes, Sully didn't do everything literally perfectly, but here, we get to see a prime difference between a competent captain and an incompetent captain. I'm disappointed that people call Sully incompetent, when we have actually incompetent captains like this.

      Starting the APU was absolutely the right call, and it wasn't in the checklist. While there is some debate as to whether the Airbus Normal Law protections had any impact on US Air 1549, certainly a loss of electrical power and associated flight control degradation would have made the situation considerably harder to manage.

So no safe landing as an option that means if he land it somewhere without casualties he is a hero. And he did it with his co-pilot. The general mistake is that people are trying to compare both situations, but there are major differences between them. Urals captain didn't put the gear up after calling "positive rate" and tried to hide it before crashing. Actually there were no calling positive rate, they just forgot about the gear with that amount of thrust it couldn't fly.

Realizing what happened and what CAN be done takes time - and unfortunately, that made a return flatly impossible. (In fact, no pilot was able to make a return when presented with the problem unless they did execute that return immediately, but pilots don’t train to react blindly, they train to evaluate, decide, then act.
      And that takes time.)

    A lifelong friend of mine spent his commercial aviation career as Captain for Delta Airlines, flying Boeing 737s. He told me about one incident he experienced during takeoff from Miami. A pelican was sucked into the port engine during climbout, causing its thrust to immediately drop to zero. This was the coolest guy I have ever known, one whom anyone would want to be in charge during a completely unexpected and highly chaotic emergency. He would remain completely calm, and solve whatever problems arose until returning to safety. I've seen him do it in many other, non-flight situations. Anyway, he returned the plane to Miami without further incident...that his story revealed, though his low-key retell suggested there really were none. Once on the ground, he went to inspect the engine, and found that it was "completely destroyed", a description one would have to know this guy to appreciate. It had suffered an unconfined compressor and turbine disassembly, leaving only shattered junk hanging on the wing pylon. The description of the character of the pilot flying in this video is the polar opposite of my friend's, and I can see just how much difference the character (for lack of a better term) can make in such a very short event. Great video, as always!

    If you might still be thinking their psychological evaluations sound really bad, remember that this is "under stress" and thus is measuring adrenaline responses. Both pilots primarily showed "fight" behavioral responses, which is completely normal under the conditions they were in. None of the typical adrenaline responses (fight, flight, freeze/flop, fawn) are good for aviation emergencies, but also, *everyone has them*. People who perform well under stress often have specifically trained themselves or been trained to do so, and that just makes it easier to cope and focus, it doesn't actually prevent the adrenaline response.

Each round some tile colors changed and we were spending round after round trying to figure the pattern or significance of. All the while moving characters to different tiles, making actions, etc. Occasionally throwing a save roll. For probably a dozen rounds easily.
      After moving on and ending the module that night the DM burst out laughing; it was a random pattern by dice roll and if you were on the color red it was "save or die". Dead dead.
      We putzed around inside the trap while the dice just kept falling in our favor and we were all intact by undeserved sheer luck for long enough to get bored of the situation. Mr. Magoo'ed our way through the final bit.

    That direct call to the first officer to call ATC reminds me of something you learn in emergency response. People will get stuck in the bystander effect or get shocked into non-responsiveness. To break out of it, you need to indicate both the person and the action they need to take. "Someone call 911" is less likely to be actioned than actually pointing at someone and say "you call 911" because people often assume someone else will handle it and they don't have to get involved. A 1969 study showed that when alone, 70% of people will aid someone in distress; in the presence of other people, only 40% will render aid. There are a lot of variables, including group cohesion where once someone starts intervening, it is more likely the rest of the crowd will get involved as well, and cultural variations can strongly influence the response, but it is something to keep in mind during emergencies.

    Pilot error undoubtedly played a role in the crash landing, but let's not forget this all unfolded in a mere 90 seconds. We've spent the last 45 minutes dissecting every detail and misstep, making solutions seem clear-cut. But in the heat of the moment, under the immense pressure of a 90-second crisis, mistakes happen easily. This just highlights the need for continuous pilot training. The Airbus A321's design, however, deserves credit for minimizing the impact of the pilot errors and saving the lives of its passengers. The valuable lesson lies in learning from the pilots' actions and highlights how important good pilot training is to this day

      ​@@hbh3144 Of course pilots are usually trained for these 90 seconds, but it's real-life we are talking about.

What is trained does not mean what is learned. Human error does not start in the cockpit, it ends there.

    Long-time lurker here. I was hoping you'd cover this incident, Petter. A while ago, I listened to Russian pilots' perspectives on this particular case, but their insights were mostly speculative due to the lack of publicly available information.
    As a sidenote, I used to only fly Ural Airlines until around 2016. In the early 2000s, while flying over Eastern Europe, our aircraft encountered a particularly stormy patch of weather, and the plane's movements became incredibly erratic (lots of abrupt nose dives and then climbs). All the passengers fell silent, essentially preparing for the worst. The pilots executed a forced (emergency?) landing, and fortunately, no one was seriously physically injured. Even today, I still can't tell you what happened, as the passengers were never briefed on the situation. This incident made me a nervous flyer for the better part of two decades, but I am in recovery now, thanks in no small part to your videos!

      Plus Sully coordinated with ATC, to shorten emergency response times, and gave a warning to passengers to brace for impact, and his copilot helped effectively troubleshoot the problem. I can imagine the Hudson landing would have been noticeably worse with less communication. Worst case, the plane could have crashed into the middle of a dense New York suburb if they made the fatal decision to return to Laguardia.

    the survival rate of 100% is nothing short of luck to the maximum. the Hudson landing was as well a miracle, being landing on water increases potential of breakup and drowning. the pilots involved in the "miracle of the Hudson" actually piloted well right to the end, the airframe staying together was the miracle. in the case of this flight the pilots lost awareness thus lost control of the aircraft. the airbus flight control systems managed to stabilize the aircraft enough that the airframe did not break apart.

    As a little side comment, I remember my mum telling me about a flight she went on for holiday before she passed away in 2012. The pilot said the following, if we lose one, two, or even three engines don't worry, if we lose the forth one then we've got a heck of a problem. This was back in the early 70's a few years before I was born and the air plane had prop engines.

    I spent the last week watching your videos with my father (USAF Colonel, ret) and we greatly enjoy your clear and detailed coverage presentations. He's 90 and started his career flying the F-89D/H/J and ended with the F-111A/F. He was surprised at the aircraft command changes. The man in the circuit still has final say but they clearly aren't the "stick men" of his years. In most cases, seems like the airplane flies itself and the man is just a systems manager. When he must take the stick in an emergency, he just takes queues from whatever instruments are available and reacts according to his training. No natural feel for flying when those things aren't working correctly. He cited a training flight in the F-111F toward the end of his career. On a target run-in the bomb-nav computer quit so dad started his stopwatch and executed the upcoming turn via dead reckoning. After the turn the bomb-nav started working again and they hit their target. Later, the young(er) captain who had been with him was telling everyone what a wiz the Colonel is without the computer. Dad said it was simply how he learned to fly: not to depend on other things, fly the plan yourself, get the job done. I spoke with a young B-52 nav a few years ago and he, separately, commented that they are one of the few who can continue with a mission if they lose the gizmos (GPS, etc.) because they still have some of the old gear. Even the sextant port is still useable, not that they trained him to do that. He'd taught himself. Said they' usually use it to shoot eggs out of if another BUFF is hotdogging them from behind.
    Seems that natural flying feel is rare (I inherited it) and not all of those go into flying. However, the world needs far more people to fill commercial flight decks than the few who do. So, we end up with training and automation to fill the gap.

    Regarding being tripped by Procedures that are supposed to help you i can tell a Story: I am a professional Electrician and we have the 5 Safety rules (actually 3 since the last two are only for high powered equipment and such stuff):
    (freely translated from german)
    => Switch Circuit off
    => Procect Circuit against re-enabling
    => Ensure there is no Voltage on the Circuit you work on
    ( => Ground and Short-Circuit )
    ( => Cover or lock other nearby Parts still operational )
    That just for Context to my Story:
    I had worked previously to make some space for RCDs in a Distribution Cabinet. This involved removing some breakers, where i have left the outgoing cables in their clamps previously. Now i had to move them to other Circuits since the Outlets wher these Cables were going wer still needed. When i started working i tried to tick off the safety rules, but immediately tripped when the Circuit i was working on didnt exist anymore.. well, i continued to work and when i straightened out the outgoing Cable to remove it i immediately got an electric shock. Turns out this Circuit was connected with another Circuir in a Box. and even on the same leg, so the breakers didnt trip before..
    Since then i always say that Rule 3 is the most important of them, dont let yourself trip by the procedure if Rule 1&2 cannot be done.

(basically reducing everything to rule 1 and maybe 3), but maybe im mistaken...

    A lot of warnings at the same time will make any pilot become oversatuated. A miracle they were able to get on the ground with no loss of life. Also very inexperienced crew adds to the problem.

    Thank you for clarifying this V1 / VR rule. As a non pilot, I've often wondered why super long runways like this were never taken into consideration with the numbers. Personally I think there should be something empirical for super long runways, rather than leaving it entirely up to the pilot's judgement. If you're on a 15,000 foot runway, you might be able to get several hundred feet in the air and land safely under the right conditions.
    Edit: just got you addressing this for the second time. Good point. However I still think there's room for something like an asterisk "long runway takeoff" when the runway is more than 2x the expected takeoff distance or something idk.

    • @thetowndrunk988
      @thetowndrunk988 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Except V1 means the point of no return. It’s irrelevant how long the runway is, because V1 means the speed that you can no longer stop the aircraft in the available runway length. Now, one could argue that V1 is not necessary on some insane long runway, or a hypothetical runway of like 8 miles long, but also there’s aircraft performance to take into account, as well as fuel burn. Generally speaking, a commercial aircraft is going to use the least amount of fuel possible to safely takeoff, because pushing the engines 100% simply burns more fuel, and creates more wear.

    • @thetowndrunk988

      @@PsRohrbaugh v1 does not always equal vr. With a dry runway, it usually does, but if the runway is wet, or you have tailwind, or some other factors, v1 doesn’t equal vr. Vr will be at a higher speed than v1, in those cases, depending on runway length. Now, on a long runway, it may very well be lower, but in practice, you’re never going to reject a takeoff if you’re at rotation speed.

      @@PsRohrbaugh I agree it’s not really necessary on a super long runway, but they have those regulations for a reason. Like as a GA pilot, I never calculated V1, because if you use the full runway at a good sized airport, you can takeoff and land again all within the runway space. But, I’d need to (or I should say SHOULD) for a short strip, or especially a field with a drop off or something.
