I was gonna say the same, what with the little windows as well. However I am deeply dismayed that, despite showing actual footage of the plane landing and the ARFF on scene - we were given no views from the fire trucks, had no idea what the in flight meal looked like, and did NOT see both pilots being kissed out of their houses by spouses that morning. Much to be improved yet VAS. :)
Love this channel - have you ever done a video on how to read the ATC overlays? Having watched quite a few of these, I have pieced together some of the symbols, but it would be nice to learn how to read them properly...
On the aircraft tags, the bottom right flashes between aircraft type and groundspeed. The bottom left is altitude (ie. DAL420 140 CRJ7/14) where 140 = 14,000ft ASL and the 14 means 140kts groundspeed.
My own emergency what's up my left main had a deflation on touchdown when I was doing a hot touch and go. If a friend of my father's hadn't taught me about touch and goes, in tail draggers, a couple of weeks before, I wouldn't be here to talk about it. He eventually ended up owning a british super marine fighter! Sadly, I never got to fly that. However, I have always thought that I owed him my life!
How can you listen to PAST radio communications at any given airport? I had a particular incident at KCRQ which I would love to be able to retrieve for my own personal teaching/learning. Are airport tower communications recorded and stored somewhere online for me to retrieve? I see all these radio communications videos and always wonder how they are able to capture the audio. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
LiveATC archives. You will need to put in the airport and what you are listening to, ex: rower,ground or approach. Then you gotta put the time in Zulu to current time of the incident. From there you can listen to a 30 minute block time of arc archive
@@crazyforce1102 Thank you! I just listened to the audio and it was extremely helpful to listen to the audio to reflect back on and digest everything that was going on but at the time may have not of realized since you start to get tunnel vision when encountering an issue in flight. Another valuable resource. Thanks again.
Just a note to animators, in the real world, those departure tags would be dropped by the SYR controller once the aircraft left 10,000'. Controllers in my day, almost without exception dropped or inhibited tags once they departed their airspace to reduce scope clutter.
@@VASAviation Yes, I see that, and the SYR controller would have dropped the tag once the aircraft has: A.) Been handed off to the Center; and: B.) The aircraft has left HIS airspace block, i.e., SYR. I'm not knocking it, I think your animations are great -- I'm just suggesting that this would make your animation more to form if the tags disappeared once the aircraft leaves 10,000 ft.
@@VASAviation One more thing, the position identifier on the tag (the letter at the end of the leader line) should also change to a "C" for Center when they take the handoff from SYR. If it is not in the data, most controllers switch handed off aircraft to the receiving facility ASAP once all conflicts have been resolved -- so all you have to do is find the frequency change and back up about 15 seconds on the timeline and change it to a "C" there. I believe "C" is universal for the "Center" on all radar displays, but there may be exceptions. My only intent is to help with your work.
It seems like there are a lot more engine failures happening these days. I wonder if it has to do with all the planes just sitting grounded during the pandemic. Planes weren't meant to sit unused for long periods of time.
Dumb question maybe a pilot can answer: Why are the running checklists 20 miles from being able to land? What do the checklists tell you? I would think their priority would be to get on the ground.
@@VASAviation Ah got it. So it's not about trying to restart the engine or diagnose the problem, but rather landing safely when the plane wasn't expected to land at that stage of the flight?
@@BlueIvories this is just one example of many but in the CRJ, normally you land flaps 45. A Engine failure is a flaps 20 landing. If your runway was already short and or wet/contaminated, the checklist would tell you to add a % to your normal landing distance. You might determine that you can no longer land at the airport. There’s also other issues addressed such as fuel imbalance, engine driven hydraulic pumps not running, loss of anti ice capability, etc. In short, the plane can fly a very long time on one engine and it’s better to be thorough and methodical vs hasty most of the time. Exceptions would be smoke/fire situations where you don’t have as much time.
That's a good question actually. Not sure about the crj200 but many aircraft use partial flap settings during single-engine landings, increasing landing distance and braking demands. That can cause foreign object debris like rubber parts from the tyres. They can also be landing overweight. All this requires the airport management to close the runway for inspection anyway. Plus it gives the trucks more room to inspect the aircraft when on a 150' wide runway, rather than a taxiway.
They want the engine visually checked for leaking fluids or hazards by the fire dept before continuing taxing. You don’t take those problems to the gate where ARF has limited space to deal with them. The air flow in flight dissipates all that behind them. Taxing, leaks may be pooling in the cowl or under them at the gate causing a fire hazard.
Not the only plane in the sky, if it was 5-10 more minutes, others would have landed or departed. Also… the radios you hear in this clip are not the only conversations going on, Airfield Rescue crews ask questions, Tower controllers planning to receive an aircraft with engine failure ask questions, and controllers are allowed to have questions. Pilot says “3 more minutes”, notice the aircraft on a perfect base leg for final out of 4000ft at the conclusion of 3 minutes.
There are many factors that could lead up to asking the pilot to verify. When I was a controller, if I got the info as a result of it being passed down to me, I might verify it. The controller didn't ask for the information again, he read it to the pilot and asked him if it was correct. The intercoms were updated over 20 years ago and that makes them new by FAA standards -- I used it and it was a good system. The radar system I worked on, ARTS3A was 50 years old and it was a great system until the day STARS came in.
The Boston center air space over SYR is based out of Nashua NH. SYR approach has always confirmed souls and pounds with the pilots atleast once when they are on local frequencies in my 20+ years dealing with in-flight emergencies that land at SYR.
Great job by the crew and ATC! They declared immediately, made time to do checklists, run performance numbers and landed safely!
Victor, nice job with the overlays, especially the dark IAP. Keep up the great work!
Long since I last watched you channel. I dig the map/ATC overlay.

We have C displayed but unfortunately it's difficult to sync it perfectly with audio. That's why hand off is sometimes delayed

a lot of engine failures recently
How long you need? Are you ready? Now are you ready? Skywest say intentions...C'mon ATC really?
ATC: what do you want…?
SKW: PPOS HOLD
ATC: Expect vectors…
That's why they should give a brief summary which includes souls, fuel, anticipated intention, and then say standby, on the initial Mayday or Pan Pan!
Both ATC and the flight crew were spot on here.
