My husband was a hardware/software engineer for King/Bendix (later to become Allied Signal & Honeywell) who was involved with the development of the TCAS as well as the color weather radar. They were something he was very proud of, and he loved being able to actually go up in the air to test them!
last time on i was on a 737-800 flight we had an descend rate of -3500 or so as the pilots told me afterwards ;) nothing to unusual i guess but if you are trying to finish your meal its a funny experience!
Captain Joe is that not a recent thing? If I recall correctly, the main reason for the Russian crew in the crash you mentioned ignoring TCAS and listening to the ATC controller instead was because TCAS voice is monotone and lacked urgency, just stating “Climb” whilst an ATC controller would be more like “increase altitude immediately!” with a forceful tone and in somewhere like Russia where many crews at the time of the crash were trained during Soviet times where obedience was pretty much absolute that they would be more likely to follow that instead of the TCAS which I believe is supposed to be listened to over any ATC controller?
TCAS has an incredible history from a technical point of view. It is a fully distributed system with no central instance and it took 30 years to develop, but despite these challenges TCAS never caused a major incident.
Does anyone else love the feeling of when someone says something and you know exactly how and why to do it because you know you studied on it? Maybe it’s just me but it feels so rewarding anyone else?
I really enjoy your videos but please use an external mic or a smaller room. The echo makes it difficult to understand. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Mihai Trasca Hey Mihai. sorry about the sound, this is the last video in bad sound quality, I have a new microphone :) Thanks for the headsup :) Greetings Joe
I'm not a pilot nor have any prospect of becoming one (I already have another fun and complex career) but I love EVERYTHING about aviation and flying and really enjoy and appreciate all your videos. Thank you for doing them so well and for enlightening us!
"it's as easy as that to be honest"..... :) You do make it sound so simple Captain.!!! Thank you for the very clear explanation... your videos keep getting more and more interesting! Well done! Danke Schon.
Hey Joe! I'll soon be studying medicine myself and I am quite interested in emergency medicine, so I have always wondered, what chances there are, if for example, a passenger has a heart attack. What kind of medical equipment do you carry in a normal passenger plane? How well are pilots and cabin crew trained? Is the "IS THERE A DOCTOR ONBOARD?!!" shout a Hollywood invention, or would that really happen? Are there any special legal issues with carrying medical equipment across borders?
Years ago back in the 70's, I was flying in first class on a Lockheed Tristar from San Fran to NYC on a red eye special. An elderly overweight passenger sitting opposite me collapsed in his seat. They took him up the front and layed him out on the floor near the entrance to the flight deck. The aircraft diverted to Chicago and went into a very rapid descent. I believe some crew members tried to resuscitate him but with no success. Once the paramedics came on board and took the passenger off the aircraft we resumed our journey. In the days when I did a lot of flying around the world occasionally there would be a call over the pa asking if their was a doctor on board. I think these days some crew members are trained in medical emergencies and there is a center staffed with medical professionals in the US that gives flight crew no matter where they are in the world advice on how to deal with the situation and where to divert to. Our good Captain Joe more than likely knows a lot more about that than I do.
Usually, there is an AED or in other words Defibrillator on board. This is, as far as I know, a must for trans-continental flights. Help of a doctor is always a big plus and they are called out not only in case of such a immediate life threatening situation. What needs to be mentioned, crew is trained regullary on CPR and so doctor do not necessary take over as, depending on specialization, they might have had it many years ago. The overall responsibility lays in hand of crew and eventually the captain who will be looking towards quickest divertion. There is other equipment in my airline such as sthetoscope, blood pressure meter and aspirin if we talk about cardiac arrest. The best medicine is for us always a fast landing.
+MrOspi Hmm, the crew taking responsibility in any case is actually quite interesting, I assume because of the "Bordgewalt", which roughly translates to "onboard power" and means that onboard an aircraft or ship, the captain takes official responsibility, for example recieving the right to arrest passengers and so on. Because normally, at least in Germany, whenever there is a medical emergency, whoever has a qualification in medicine automatically takes command and responsibility over the scene until someone of higher qualification arrives, the highest being doctor (though in mass casualty events there are LNA's, Leading doctors). So if in 6 years when I have my license, I run accross a guy collapsing in the street, as soon as I attend the emergency, I am automatically in charge, since I am the one with the highest medical qualification present.
Hey, Joe! I've always been wondering what does a pilot feel when he flies as a passangeer. Especially if it is his type of plane (like a320 for you). Sonwhat do you feel? Do you always know exactly what does the pilot do by just looking at the wing and by engine sound? And what do you feel when you fly a different plane, like 747? Do you still have an idea of what is happening in the cockpit? Doesn't it feel awkward to fly as a passangeer for you?
‘A different plane like the 747’... he recently transferred from flying an A320 (for AirBerlin) to flying a B747 (for Cargolux), so he knows both planes now. However, planes like the A380 or an Embraer are different to him, so that might be what you’re asking.
Captain Joe.. Just A Couple Of Questions.. As A First Officer Your Joystick Controls Are In Your Right Hand. But A Captains Is In His Left. How Hard Is It To Change Over. And Why A Captains Seated On The Left ???
Thank you for this type of content, because most channels would have a website where it is like 4,99 a month for stuff that you explain here. keep going with this amazing work
Captain Joe can u tell me about a380..its cruise speed and highest speed and speed required to take off or land...waiting for ur answer and more videos:)
I have no interest in becoming a pilot yet I still find all your videos fascinating, really makes me appreciate all the time people put in to commercial flying.
Joe, thank you so much for your wonderful videos. I am a private pilot who planned to go commercial in the Fall of 2001... and we all know what happened then. But, thanks to your fantastic channel, I can feel like I'm learning the things I never got to, as well as staying close to the world of aviation I love so much. Many, many thanks!
2002 UBERLINGEN DISASTER: AIRLINES: DHL CARGO 757 AND LOT POLISHED AIRLINES PASSENGERS: 55 PEOPLE (MOSTLY CHILDREN ON A SCHOOL TRIP) THE CRASH: IT ALL START AT 33 000 FEET WHEN THE PLANES FLIES AT THE SAME ALLTITUDE WHEN THE PLANE ARE CLOSING IN THE TCAS SOUND: TRAFFIC TRAFFIC. THE PASSENGER PLANE NEED TO CLIMB WHILE THE CARGO DESCENT. DUE TO THE ATC IS HAVING PROBLEM WITH A LATE AIRBUS, THE ATC NOTICED THAT THE PLANE IS CLOSING IN. SO THE ATC TELL TO PASSENGER PLANE NEED TO DESCENT. THE CREW CONFUSED ABOUT DESCENT OR CLIMB, THEY GOT NO CHOICE BUT TO DESCENT WITH THE CARGO PLANE. THE 757 'S RUDDER PENETRATE THROUGH THE NOSE PART OF THE PLANE. THE CREW LOOSES CONSCIOUSNESS FROM THE HIGH-SPEED FALL. WHILE THE 757 LOOSES MORE THAN 80% OF ITS HYDRAULIC, THE 757 ENTERS AN UNCONTROLLABLE DIVE KILLING ALL 3 CREW MEMBERS IN THE 757.MEANWHILE THE PASSENGER PLANE CRASH INTO A FIELD NEAR A HOUSE. KILLING ALL 55 PASSENGER AND 3 CREW MEMBERS. I obtain all of this by watching it on why plane crash: collision course I'm Malaysian Btw 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
My dream job would be a commercial airline pilot...but alas I’m a scientist (neuroscience) and still I have such great respect for pilots and their knowledge and you Captain Joe represent the best of professionalism that everyone, not even pilots, can learn so much from...thanks!
I usually fly to 5 to 10K feet and turn it on. Honestly, as long as i'm flying heading I'll typically hand fly and as soon as I'm navigating to a fix I'll turn it on. But that's just a rule of thumb. I rarely, if ever, hand fly above FL200 (20K feet).
Great stuff Capt. Joe, I studied the A320 FCOM and am currently awaiting my interview in the next few days with Vistara. Your videos build upon my understanding significantly. Having a visual corollary to ones notes helps immensely. Thanks again!
It's good to see this technology now rolling out to consumer drones, I have a DJI Mavic Air 2 and have received warnings multiple times -- often I hear an aircraft in the general area as well even if I don't see one. The system in the Mavic Air 2 is receive only, but I think within 5 years or so we'll have broadcast as well in some variety. Depending on type of aircraft, altitude and speed the transmit power of TCAS could be adjusted to limit receipt by aircraft too far away or at a flight level beyond the type. The system employed on the Mavic Air 2 is called "AirSense" and is a version of ADS-B.
These videos are absolutely brilliant! Could we have an introduction video to the navigation instruments please Joe? For example, I'd find it fascinating to know how you take off, fly above the clouds with nothing to visually reference where you are, and then when you descend, you're in the right place! I'd like to know how that is done! Cheers!
The Air Traffic Control communicate with the pilots and tell the pilots of arriving planes first of all which approach to expect (which runway to land eventually) and later give a landing clearance when the plane comes closer. The direction that planes will be landing and departing or "runway configuration", as it is called, depends first of all on the winds at the airport. The basic rule is to try to get the planes land and depart as much AGAINST the wind as possible. Obviously they use various navigation systems and techniques as well as the orders of the Air Traffic Control to get the plane down on the correct runway Sorry I'm not Joe :D Also NOT a real pilot, just play Flight Simulators waaaaaay too much
The direction is given by the number of the runway, each runway has two designations depending on which side you approach it. In Frankfurt, for example, one runway is called 07R when approaching from the west (the runways heading is 70 degree, north/east direction). And that same runway is called 25L when approaching from the east (runway heading is 250 degree, south/west direction). Depending on the airport there can be only one runway in that particular direction or, if multiple runways exist, they're called Left, Center, Right - the airports tower assigns you the runway you should land on.
Hello joe I've watched your videos for the last probably 4 or 5 months and I'll tell you right now, my aviation knowledge has expanded heaps from all of your videos and learning about airliners is quite interesting considering I fly much smaller planes like Pitts, extra, Pilatus etc. thank you for making these videos I'm very keen to see your future videos :) Cheers
Well... You said "the pilot" and there's two pilots in the cockpit. So first, the crazy pilot would have to defeat the sane pilot. If the crazy pilot wins that fight then there's not much left to be done to be honest seeing as how you aren't allowed to carry tools with you in the cabin so you wouldn't be able to break into the cockpit. You would need tools by the way, the cockpit door is bulletproof and reinforced. Basically, there's only 3 ways you would be getting into the cockpit if locked out. 1) Crew inside the cockpit unlocks it by the press of a button. The door is unlocked for 5 seconds. 2) Someone in the cabin knows the access code and enters it at the keypad. At which point the door stays locked for 30 seconds while an alert goes off inside the cockpit, to which entry can be DENIED by anyone inside the cockpit. If the 30 seconds goes without a response from inside the cockpit, the door unlocks. 3) The power goes out. But again, you would need some set of tools to be able to de-power the entire aircraft. And there's backups to everything. Engine 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. APU and batteries. You would have to disable all those systems to depower the aircraft to open the door. And when you've managed all that, you are already on a runway with security inside your anus or on the ocean floor/inside a mountain/a speck of human on the ground. That's why pilots rarely go crazy in cockpit. There's rigorous evaluations to prevent it. But it has happened to Germanwings. An Airbus A320's captain stepped out of the cockpit (illegally i might add, must be replaced by another crew to leave the cockpit) and wasn't let back in as the co-pilot steered the aircraft towards the mountainside, committing suicide by plane and taking all 150 souls with him.
ur lucky my sister is a flight attendant we promised each other well do PPL together next year im working so i can get some money and do it shes waiting for me. then im going to pressed onto CPL on my own
Very helpful and informative video! Production tip: hang a wide, thick blanket behind the camera. It will help absorb the distracting echo effect which is present in empty rooms.
Captain Joe, your videos are the best videos about airplanes. You explain everything with lot details. I also like the introduction of your videos. Keep uploading more videos like you do. They are very good. Thanks.
great video. Not a pilot, not interested in becoming one and I don't usually travel by plane, but all this topics are very interesting and I like your charisma and the way you explain...
The sad part of the video is so touching 😍😍, man that background music with you being the narrator is breathtaking to be honest, wish you were the narrator of the crush documentaries, what else could I enjoy more? I guess nothing realy 😘
aviation stuff has always interested me! it all started when i watched aircrash investigation on natgeo. stumbling upon this channel has refueled my curiosity and very entertaining to watch xD
Super Video Joe! Deine Erklärungen sind immer gut verständlich und mir gefällt vor allem, dass du auch Beispiele und Bilder verwendest. Ich freue mich schon auf viele weitere spannende Themen von dir. ;-)
Thank you so much Captain for all this info regarding aviation, I’m not in this profession but love watching your videos and lectures and gives me an idea what is going on once I board a plane God bless and see you in your next video
I love that you used Lux Aurumque in the video! One of my favorite choral songs for sure. I'm curious. As a drone pilot, more and more drones are getting ADS-B receivers for collision avoidance using ADS-IN but using ADS-OUT to broadcast your drone's location is strictly forbidden. does this make no sense or is it just me? Like, why would they not want all aircraft on the same system? The only thing I can think of is not cluttering up a commercial pilot's radar
I've always wondered why it took so much time to clearly state that TCAS RA takes priority over ATC instructions. But anyways, a great video, as always. And yeah, I know those MUC arrival routes. It's a nice view for a passenger sitting on the starboard side while arriving from the north. All departures are all of a sudden pointing directly at you :)
Luv your TH-cam channel ,I find it very interesting specially people like me who have a interest in airplanes,keep up the good work !thank you captain Joe
I have to say I really like your videos. I enjoy learning (maybe I'm addicted) all about air crafts.I have found your videos very informative. Thank you for taking the time to produce these videos. I subscribed, God bless you.
Excelent videos Joe! Love the way you explain everything regarding airplanes! Please some day do a video explaining the cabin pressurization and how it works. Thanks a lot!
Captain Joy, your way you explain is excellent the videos are not long nor short. Also you explain by using the pictures and the sounds of the real events, simulation and all you say are just relevant really! thanks a lot. But just a question please. Can you explain us systematically how do pilots turn left and right the aircraft on the ground please ?? Is it used by the pedals or how actually???? Thank you in advance Captain Joy
This video answered quite well a big question I had when I was younger, how planes avoid crashing into each other. I knew before watching this video that it's the radar systems they have, but I didn't know until now the details such as the TCAS system.
From the ATC perspective this is fabulous information. We understand what RA's mean but I've always wondered what the pilot is looking at when issued traffic and responds 'got it in the box' or 'have it on the fish finder'. Now I get pilots probably have the traffic on the TCAS looong before the traffic is issued by the controller.
There's an even sadder continuation of the uberlingen story,the air traffic controller was eventually murdered by a father who's kids and wife were on the tupolev,the investigation then concluded that it was skyguide (the company that was employer of the controller.) there is a great documentary on TH-cam as well.
You missed the chance to explain, that TCAS was massively improved after this crash in Überlingen, now monitoring the complete RA and changing the RA for the planes if the resolution is not enough. So the crash of Überlingen would be fully avoided in the newer versions, the RA would just change for the other airplane, from descend to "Climb; climb now." while the planes calculates that a passing in the planned way would not happen.
My husband was a hardware/software engineer for King/Bendix (later to become Allied Signal & Honeywell) who was involved with the development of the TCAS as well as the color weather radar. They were something he was very proud of, and he loved being able to actually go up in the air to test them!
Your husband is our hero ❤
I can't believe you do these for free simply to educate us Dumbos. Cheers, Captain.
Drew Layton Hey Drew, I´m pretty sure you´re not a dumbo! But your comment made me laugh :) Greetings Joe
I just enjoy as flying is my passion
@@flywithcaptainjoe u are a fantastic person. My dad's a recreational pilot
2nd favorite youtuber!!!
Ad revenue man
I think my favorite TCAS voice line is when the plane is not climbing, and TCAS gets a bit more aggressive by saying "Climb, climb now!"
BasedShark True that´s out there as well :)
last time on i was on a 737-800 flight we had an descend rate of -3500 or so as the pilots told me afterwards ;) nothing to unusual i guess but if you are trying to finish your meal its a funny experience!
BasedShark. Its when it says, Brace for impact!!. Were going down, Will be in the Hudson you better worry....lolollol
Captain Joe is that not a recent thing? If I recall correctly, the main reason for the Russian crew in the crash you mentioned ignoring TCAS and listening to the ATC controller instead was because TCAS voice is monotone and lacked urgency, just stating “Climb” whilst an ATC controller would be more like “increase altitude immediately!” with a forceful tone and in somewhere like Russia where many crews at the time of the crash were trained during Soviet times where obedience was pretty much absolute that they would be more likely to follow that instead of the TCAS which I believe is supposed to be listened to over any ATC controller?
Climb, CLIMB, DO IT NOW!!!
Happiness is getting a new video notification from Captain Joe! 😃
Vishak Thanks, appreciate it :)
Vishak too true
i'm agree and this one, is a beautiful lesson! wow Capitain!
Very true
TCAS has an incredible history from a technical point of view. It is a fully distributed system with no central instance and it took 30 years to develop, but despite these challenges TCAS never caused a major incident.
Does anyone else love the feeling of when someone says something and you know exactly how and why to do it because you know you studied on it? Maybe it’s just me but it feels so rewarding anyone else?

Def7355608 Video about the doctors kit would be a good idea! Yes there is this call out, "Is there a doctor on board" Not just in hollywood movies :)
Years ago back in the 70's, I was flying in first class on a Lockheed Tristar from San Fran to NYC on a red eye special. An elderly overweight passenger sitting opposite me collapsed in his seat.

Many thanks Capt Joe. I have flown several times and always wondered how the pilots were able to keep away from other aircrafts
you still
Joe can you explain the various speed from starting of descent untill landing and also cruise speeds?
Ranan Parashar I´ll see what I can do :)
thanks captain....will look forward to your video :)
Captain Joe can u tell me about a380..its cruise speed and highest speed and speed required to take off or land...waiting for ur answer and more videos:)
Lionel Messigician the take off speed depends on the load of the aircraft, temperature, runway altitude above sea level etc various factors

Hey Joe could you make a video on when do pilots usually decide to engage the autopilot???? is it seconds after take off or when you are at 10000 ft?
Sentinel HDD Yes would be really nice to know....but I think usually about 30 sec to 3 min after takeoff...FL100 is way too high...
I usually fly to 5 to 10K feet and turn it on. Honestly, as long as i'm flying heading I'll typically hand fly and as soon as I'm navigating to a fix I'll turn it on. But that's just a rule of thumb. I rarely, if ever, hand fly above FL200 (20K feet).
I engage autopilot while climbing....is this bad?
Great stuff Capt. Joe, I studied the A320 FCOM and am currently awaiting my interview in the next few days with Vistara. Your videos build upon my understanding significantly. Having a visual corollary to ones notes helps immensely. Thanks again!
Great video! But I thought it was the 757 that's overpowered, not the 737?
dave4shmups Yes, it's the 757 that's usually referred to as over powered
...and the MD-11 which he showed in the "Excessive Climb" slide.
The 737 got a lot of power also but the 757 is so overpowered that its ridiculous.
TCAS is such an interesting feature in my opinion. I can’t get enough of learning about it. Thanks for making this!
awesome explaned
Wow! I flew on a flight a few days ago and the pilot announced that the TCAS system was malfunctioning. how thankful I am to be safe!!

And he flew the flight without TCAS

Joe in many international airports there are more than one runway. How do pilots know which run way to lands on and on which direction?
The Air Traffic Control communicate with the pilots and tell the pilots of arriving planes first of all which approach to expect (which runway to land eventually) and later give a landing clearance when the plane comes closer. The direction that planes will be landing and departing or "runway configuration", as it is called, depends first of all on the winds at the airport. The basic rule is to try to get the planes land and depart as much AGAINST the wind as possible.
Obviously they use various navigation systems and techniques as well as the orders of the Air Traffic Control to get the plane down on the correct runway

Depending on the airport there can be only one runway in that particular direction or, if multiple runways exist, they're called Left, Center, Right - the airports tower assigns you the runway you should land on.

Hello joe I've watched your videos for the last probably 4 or 5 months and I'll tell you right now, my aviation knowledge has expanded heaps from all of your videos and learning about airliners is quite interesting considering I fly much smaller planes like Pitts, extra, Pilatus etc. thank you for making these videos I'm very keen to see your future videos :)
Cheers
Is the warning "Terrain, Terrain" also a TCAS warning?
No, that's GPWS, which stands for ground proximity warning system
Thank you, Captain Joe. I had received many information about TCAS system and safe to flight in this lesson.
One question, what if the pilot goes crazy and decides to crash into another plane? is there a safety measure for that?
Uday Bhasker hey! Please stay on the bright side and everything is settled
Uday Bhasker airbus will prevent the crash even the pilot want to do so
Well... You said "the pilot" and there's two pilots in the cockpit. So first, the crazy pilot would have to defeat the sane pilot.
If the crazy pilot wins that fight then there's not much left to be done to be honest seeing as how you aren't allowed to carry tools with you in the cabin so you wouldn't be able to break into the cockpit.
You would need tools by the way, the cockpit door is bulletproof and reinforced.
Basically, there's only 3 ways you would be getting into the cockpit if locked out.
1) Crew inside the cockpit unlocks it by the press of a button. The door is unlocked for 5 seconds.
2) Someone in the cabin knows the access code and enters it at the keypad. At which point the door stays locked for 30 seconds while an alert goes off inside the cockpit, to which entry can be DENIED by anyone inside the cockpit. If the 30 seconds goes without a response from inside the cockpit, the door unlocks.
3) The power goes out. But again, you would need some set of tools to be able to de-power the entire aircraft. And there's backups to everything. Engine 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. APU and batteries. You would have to disable all those systems to depower the aircraft to open the door. And when you've managed all that, you are already on a runway with security inside your anus or on the ocean floor/inside a mountain/a speck of human on the ground.
That's why pilots rarely go crazy in cockpit. There's rigorous evaluations to prevent it.
But it has happened to Germanwings. An Airbus A320's captain stepped out of the cockpit (illegally i might add, must be replaced by another crew to leave the cockpit) and wasn't let back in as the co-pilot steered the aircraft towards the mountainside, committing suicide by plane and taking all 150 souls with him.
By the way, Captain Joe should make a video about that kind of flight security. "What if" scenarios.
He not stepped out illegally , the 2 People rule in the Flightdeck comes after that
Waiting For TCAS 7.1 !
Many Thanks !
Boeing 737 is OP, plz nerf!
This is great, im about to start the ELT for the A320 and all of your videos are very helpful captain. Regards from Mexico !!! Danke
my dad is an A320 pilot so i know a lot about planes
baby gamer with airline.
ur lucky my sister is a flight attendant we promised each other well do PPL together next year im working so i can get some money and do it shes waiting for me. then im going to pressed onto CPL on my own
thank you sir :D
baby gamer Your 24/7answer machine :)
true very lucky to have someone like that
Very helpful and informative video! Production tip: hang a wide, thick blanket behind the camera. It will help absorb the distracting echo effect which is present in empty rooms.
my dad works in NTSB
Chris George is like to work for them someday.
Soo.... What?
That's your whole comment? Your dad works in NTSB? Well, to that I say...I like ice cream.
And I own a Used Toyota FJ-Cruiser.
I like planes
I love all of your videos. Not to mention that you have the best logo of any aviation channel on TH-cam
I am cameroonian and for me this video is a great meaning to talk about tcas
That was great - as usual - Joe. Such an important safety feature in modern commercial aviation.
Love this channel...I don't even like flying but it's sooooooo interesting. And it helps my fear of flying!!
Riddddeerrrrs Oh that´s nice to hear, thanks :) Greetings Joe
You know the video is GOOD when your "Air Traffic Management" professor asks you to watch it.
Thanks!!
best youtube channel for information how to flight a plan by using simple word. i just came across your channel, i like it , well done
Captain Joe, your videos are the best videos about airplanes. You explain everything with lot details. I also like the introduction of your videos. Keep uploading more videos like you do. They are very good. Thanks.
Super erklärt,ich finde auch in der GA ein wichtiges Thema .Ich möchte mein TCAS sowie ADSB in and out nicht mehr missen !
Great explanation of TCAS! you've got a subscriber for life, Captain Joe! ✈️
Peter Fabiano Thanks Peter appreciate it :) Greetings Joe
great video.
Not a pilot, not interested in becoming one and I don't usually travel by plane, but all this topics are very interesting and I like your charisma and the way you explain...
I love that you used Eric Whitacre!! I noticed. :)
You are like a pilot friend Joe.explaining everything to a curious bus driver friend.
Your accent is very understandable. My English is not good enough but I understand to you easily. Thanks for everything :)
As a trainee, this is Hella useful. Thank you so much
The Japan flight 958 and 907 almost crash in mid air good thing the tcas was there please see this captain joe.
Ronidel Baysa they did the same thing as the Uberlingen crash but thankfully it was daytime so they did evasive manoeuvre
The sad part of the video is so touching 😍😍, man that background music with you being the narrator is breathtaking to be honest, wish you were the narrator of the crush documentaries, what else could I enjoy more? I guess nothing realy 😘
aviation stuff has always interested me! it all started when i watched aircrash investigation on natgeo. stumbling upon this channel has refueled my curiosity and very entertaining to watch xD
Hi Joe, your videos are informative and keep posting more and more
Super Video Joe! Deine Erklärungen sind immer gut verständlich und mir gefällt vor allem, dass du auch Beispiele und Bilder verwendest. Ich freue mich schon auf viele weitere spannende Themen von dir. ;-)
Love your videos captain Joe. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much Captain for all this info regarding aviation, I’m not in this profession but love watching your videos and lectures and gives me an idea what is going on once I board a plane God bless and see you in your next video
It's awesome and your way of explaining...... oh I just love it.... I am a fan of yours 👌🏻😊
Loved this one
I love that you used Lux Aurumque in the video! One of my favorite choral songs for sure.
I'm curious. As a drone pilot, more and more drones are getting ADS-B receivers for collision avoidance using ADS-IN but using ADS-OUT to broadcast your drone's location is strictly forbidden. does this make no sense or is it just me? Like, why would they not want all aircraft on the same system? The only thing I can think of is not cluttering up a commercial pilot's radar
I've always wondered why it took so much time to clearly state that TCAS RA takes priority over ATC instructions. But anyways, a great video, as always. And yeah, I know those MUC arrival routes. It's a nice view for a passenger sitting on the starboard side while arriving from the north. All departures are all of a sudden pointing directly at you :)
Great job , as always ! keep continue , we want more ;-) we are captain joe addict ! there's no cure for it ...
imdicatf Haha :) I´m doing my best to upload technical videos on a weekly basis :) Greetings and thanks for the heads up :)
Amazing Captain I am just about to start flying for my PPL you are really helping me to understand everything.
Hi, I know the TCAS myself, but used it yesterday in my Aviation-Quiz in a german forum for further explanation. Thank you for that Video.
I didn't know about FD disconnect and speed mode. Everything is clear (of conflict...) with Joe, MUST see!
I want to be a airline pilot and I watch your videos so I can get advice on planes.
Thanks for the tip captain joe
Sam Deacon My pleasure Sam :)
Luv your TH-cam channel ,I find it very interesting specially people like me who have a interest in airplanes,keep up the good work !thank you captain Joe
while playing FSX, my plane started to say: Traffic traffic. So i did a little research and landed here. Thx for the explanation.
I have to say I really like your videos. I enjoy learning (maybe I'm addicted) all about air crafts.I have found your videos very informative. Thank you for taking the time to produce these videos. I subscribed, God bless you.
I just found your videos, and I love them. They really have helped me to understand a lot more! Keep up the magnificent work! :)
Excelent videos Joe! Love the way you explain everything regarding airplanes! Please some day do a video explaining the cabin pressurization and how it works. Thanks a lot!
J Martin Oh yes, great topic. I will look into that :) Greetings Joe
I flew a plane with my mum's cousin because he is a pilot, I love watching your videos
Frasier jackson Thanks Frasier! Appreciate it :)
I would like to be a pilot as well I love your posts and video. ✈
Captain Joy, your way you explain is excellent the videos are not long nor short. Also you explain by using the pictures and the sounds of the real events, simulation and all you say are just relevant really! thanks a lot. But just a question please. Can you explain us systematically how do pilots turn left and right the aircraft on the ground please ?? Is it used by the pedals or how actually???? Thank you in advance Captain Joy
This video answered quite well a big question I had when I was younger, how planes avoid crashing into each other. I knew before watching this video that it's the radar systems they have, but I didn't know until now the details such as the TCAS system.
I love that you used an Eric Whitacre piece as background music ❤️
Informative
Really Excellent
Captain Joe, please consider making a video on who does (or controls) what and whether is public or private.
Traffic! Traffic! Climb! climb! Descend! Descend! Climb now! Descend now!
From the ATC perspective this is fabulous information. We understand what RA's mean but I've always wondered what the pilot is looking at when issued traffic and responds 'got it in the box' or 'have it on the fish finder'. Now I get pilots probably have the traffic on the TCAS looong before the traffic is issued by the controller.
There's an even sadder continuation of the uberlingen story,the air traffic controller was eventually murdered by a father who's kids and wife were on the tupolev,the investigation then concluded that it was skyguide (the company that was employer of the controller.) there is a great documentary on TH-cam as well.
You missed the chance to explain, that TCAS was massively improved after this crash in Überlingen, now monitoring the complete RA and changing the RA for the planes if the resolution is not enough. So the crash of Überlingen would be fully avoided in the newer versions, the RA would just change for the other airplane, from descend to "Climb; climb now." while the planes calculates that a passing in the planned way would not happen.
Loved the grey sad scene about the collapse! 😄
I love your videos. I think the room you're in creates a bit of an echo making it difficult to understand at times.
