if she knows nothing about a cockpit, he needs to explain where and what the buttons and levers are, not just tell her to "climb and maintain 4000 ft" or "set the thrust to climb"

Yeah, he’s a terrible instructor, but being calm and reassuring are his good traits. In a real emergency, he’s going to cause her to crash. He can’t relay locations of vital buttons, switches and meters to swiftly elicit a prompt response. In this day and age, there should be a single button for auto maneuver to land, and/or Siri guided procedures narration to guide landing. SpaceX can develop a package and sell it to Boeing..... ;-)
@@JustPeaceLoveAndKindness Boeing is already having enough trouble with a plane that fights its pilots' efforts to not crash. Let's not burden them right now with a nav system from a self-driving car that can't merge onto a busy highway.
@@erebos_5407 True, but in this situation I would think think they would try to find a certified pilot that could translate the ATC's commands into simple instructions that anyone could follow. That's often what they do in when instructors are incapacitated with beginning students.
Andrew Yu “Gear Down’ is for landing, so if you pushed the throttle to full thrust, it will increase the speed. Since you are supposed to land, you must decrease the speed.
I agree - The instructions were very poor. He was able to make corrections to her behavior because he was there to see what she was doing. The idea here is that he'd be on the ground.
7:56 He should have explained first, to turn left or even better explaining the basics of the heading selector in 2-3 sentences. Man, this is really hard to watch
I agree.. it was excruciatingly painful to watch.. that had to be the worst instructor I've ever heard.. she did great despite his horrible instructions
@@scottish785 no it wouldnt, at worst she would have put the plane a few miles off course and would have likely realised she isnt lining up with the runway
@@speen9430 but she was following his instructions she is suppose to be inexperienced so she would not be making further adjustments without being told to do so.
If the girl is inexperienced, then why not provide some better instructions? For example, the she pressed the red button twice and yet she was still confused because the "instructor" did not provide proper guidance as to why the alarm was still ringing until the end.
So many critiques and not enough people realizing what this is. This is a training video showing a novice or someone who has never handled a plane, land a plane with control tower helping. This shows how far we've come in airplane technology to be able to still land a plane in an emergency scenario like this. Autopilot and ILS can bring a plane in and make the proper adjustments for a safe landing. I'm sure procedure wise many things weren't ideal. But again for what this is, I applaud her for being able to bring the plane in with control towers help. Crazy at the jokes about women flying, when there are many skilled women Captains who actually fly airliners, unlike most of the folks here who sound like FSX players or had a few runs in a Cessna.
Try to read what it actually says next time. "DO NOT USE for training purpose". Basically it's saying this video is copyright to BAA Training and is not to be used by anyone else for training purposes.
blackestnite this video is fake. she is experienced, look at the first command she gets, she reached for the knobe a split second before he finished instructing her to turn it. thats is what the main criticism is coming from.
I can't believe he didn't instruct her to contact ATC or change the radio frequency to emergency channel. He just dove in with pilot lingo assuming she'd know what air speed, and heading meant and where to find it. As if the average person walks around with knowledge of aircraft avionics in mind. I wouldn't want this guy talking Martha Stewart through making toast.
@No Body Correct, the landing gear is typically deployed when the glide slope is intercepted, both on an ILS or GPS approach. The gear might have already been down to simplify the process
In some countries, the army will cover the expenses if you enroll and serve a few years. I recommend checking that first as doing it privately is VERY expensive :P
In my country, the bank lends you that money if you enroll any airflight academy. (which wasn't a great idea, since we have too many pilots with massive student debts now)
He knows he's in a simulator at all times. New pilots can get fully immersed and will react as if they're in a real situation. Which is good. in both positions.
Who wouldn’t want to try their hand at flying on one of these simulators? They are certainly a hell of a lot better than one I use at home. Of course I’m sure that, like me, if you were in one you would want to actually fly the plane rather than just telling an auto pilot where to go by turning some knobs (boring). And I would also choose a much more challenging airport to land at, such as the old Hong Kong Airport for example. Its really exhilarating coming right over the tops of those skyscrapers and knowing that if you come in even a little too high you will end up in the bay. In any case, the level of automation on today’s planes is simply amazing. I just hope the pilots don’t get so used to the automation that they eventually loose their skills at flying manually.
There's already evidence that pilots, especially those that are accustomed to the more automated Airbus planes, are less skilled in dealing with emergencies. That's part of why the pilots of Air France 447 didn't realize their pitot tubes were clogged and kept pulling the nose up -- instead of realizing they were in an aerodynamic stall. Some of the most capable pilots are often those who started flying in the military, e.g. Chelsey "Sully" Sullenberger of Hudson River fame (US Airways 1549).
This instructor really needs to watch movie "Turbulence". That is how you give clear and easily understandable instructions to a person who know nothing about flying.
He tells her to do something and if she looks to a different thing he corrects her immediately because he is behind her watching.... atc would not be able to do that so basically this exercise is not valid she is catually being guided on EVERYTHING she has to do
legioner9 by doing exactly what he suggested, no looking over the shoulder to see if someone without experience knows what the heck you are trying to explain. Still take video and review it AFTER the exercise and figure out where the explanation of the task is going wrong (or the difficulty of identifying instruments).
That's true. He corrected her when she was lost. Atc would not be able to do that. Atc would only give the instructions and thats it. Yes she could have in that situation tell the atc or ask the atc where the button for example is. In this video she turned right heading at first but then he corrected her and said to turn left heading. That is something that the atc would not know that she was turning right heading. And yes the atc would see on their screen that the heading is not right.
@BAA Training - 1) She was at least partially rehearsed, 2) Your instructions lack vital information, necessary for compliance by a novice, 3) That alarm warning should have been planned for, explained to the student ahead of time, and dealt with quickly... instead of being allowed to remain a distraction and a stressor. In short: not the best video of its type we've seen.
I was very well impress with her coolness of being on Camera and receiving flight instruction. Being instructed with Boeing technology this was very good for me also. Congratulations Greta, Sam Danner Brisbane QLD Australia Qantas.
+Max D M, +Themisterfly85, did you read his comment before you posted? He said, quite clearly, that *he* had experience being instructed with Boeing equipment and found this interesting (presumably because of being able to note the differences between Boeing and Airbus).
Things to help a unexperienced girl. 1 - Landmarks, such as shopping malls. 2 - Rather than traditional nav knobs and bottoms, credit card machine like user interfaces and Facebook menus. 3 - Eradicate all parallel parking spaces.
Really because he said to turn left heading 070, it was at 250, and she started to turn it right? That just seemed like something anyone should know. Told her to press buttons and she couldn’t figure it out... idk she seemed more inept than an average person to me
Cockpits would have cameras in them now, surely? so if a plane was in distress ground control could assist, or technician, in fact why don't they have cameras?? everything else does, my mates corsa has a dashcam!
What is this nonsense? If she is just supposed to be a normal passenger who ended up in the cockpit, how is she supposed to know which button the "auto thrust" is, where the breaks are, etc? Clearly she must have had some prior knowledge.
That was incredibly cool. Very clear instructions. Didn’t realize just how automated landings could be these days. Weird to see a flight and landing without any yoke inputs.
Right except that ATC knows diddly about the cockpit layout of various aircraft or how the aircraft is equipped. The aircraft has to be equipped with an ALS and the airport has to be equipped with ALS facilities to make automatic landings possible.
The controllers will only give basic instructions for example; clearnaces,headings to fly, speed which to fly at, waypoints to fly directly to or to hold at. No control would say, 'you hear the warning sound, press the button to cancel it', just basic instructions - if controllers were to give these indept instructions at a busy airport for example London Heathrow could never operate as the amount of time wasted would be ridiculous, this is why they use only basic instructions.
Yep exactly. Just give them 1-2 hours of training in a simulator like this, show them where the controls are. That way, they'll be experienced that most of the passengers unless one of the passengers happen to be a flight simulator enthusiast or an actual commercial pilot. Flight attendants often ride on different models of planes so the controls can vary a lot. Like the A320 has the yoke on the left side while most planes have it in the center.
My Dad flew for Eastern Airlines for 30 years. He said that the head stew could fly the plane, or at least be talked down, if both pilots were incapacitated. If not, the air marshal breaks cover and takes over. Every flight has one; at least, that's what airlines want you to believe. I've heard that marshals are spread very thin, very overworked, 48 hour shifts.
I disagree. He was calm, but firm. The voice of authority, but tempered with comments such as "I would suggest ..." and "well done." Since he was dealing with an amateur who may be prone to panic if overwhelmed, I think he did it perfectly.
An Amateur won't generally know what flaps do, what ILS is and what things like glide slope indicators are. I think he should have used simpler terms. A civilian with two incapacitated pilots would break under much less pressure. I think perhaps describing where someone is to look before you give a command is VERY effective. EG: "Now do you see the large screens in front of you, good, there will be a blue section called glide slope " instead of " Do you see on the FCU Glide slope localiser blue " or "Do you see the lock star indicator on your PFD" He should start with "The screens in front of you, the line on top, does it say lock star" Do you understand what I mean?
+That Camera Guy My thoughts exactly. Classic example of someone who cannot put themselves in the mindset of a novice because they have been in the a field too long and can no longer teach.
That Camera Guy - OK, I do see your point, and I agree 100%. After watching it again, I saw that there were times when the guy should have been more clear about the location of the controls he was referring to. He should have prefaced all commands with a location first, even when the girl had already used a control, since it was a training session. By the way; ... which cameras are you the "guy" of? I shoot professional sports, with Nikon and Sigma gear. I could be wrong, but you're way too logical to be a Canon shooter. (childish inside photography joke, folks...sorry)
I think it would be a good idea to install a life video feed of the cockpit as well as the controls much like we see here to the control tower in case of an emergency it will be activated. Even if we can land 1 plane by doing so the investment is well worth it, even if it goes wrong we can all learn from what happened and try to do better next time.
I recall him saying "you are turning right, turn LEFT to ". The radar operator would definitely be able to see the plane beginning a right turn when a left turn had been requested. As far as pulling the knob vs. pushing it, when you have given an instruction and don't see any change for a while, you might assume that the person is not doing quite what they need to do, so you give them a little more info, like "pull to select, push to command". Might have been better to have explained that (and he might have before this started, because she seemed to be able to at least find the autopilot panel in the first place).
Not a bad landing(in the simulator) for someone who supposedly has never done this before. She didn't crash it into the runway - that's always a bonus, and easy to do in the simulator if you really don't know anything about flying. EDIT: Reading some of the comments makes me lose the will to live. The video title was 'Inexperienced girl', yet many of the commenter's are talking like she is fully qualified, and should have done this, should have done that, blah, blah, blah. It clearly states in the description, this was the first time she sat in the cockpit - I think she did a stellar job in landing the simulator, for someone who has no knowledge of what it is to be a pilot. Some of you people are WAY too critical.
But it was like "She haven't been in the kitchen before", yet finds everything around the kitchen on the first try. It clearly wasn't her first time, maybe her first time alone, yet she isn't alone he is literally standing over her shoulder seeing if she does it right or not. She clearly have been guided multiple times before where everything is positioned. She is guided more like she was qualified to fly, she was giving TASKS to, not instructions. Think of it like it's your first time in a manual car, the instructions says "put it into gear one" and somehow you know how to do that without hesitation just from that line, seriously now?
+Scott 1 ILS can be set up but it's not always accurate. Not all airports have it either. The landing will always be rough even with ILS, no matter what.
When I say "Inexperience", means playing Flight Simulator with muting ATC voice, randomly press any buttons and keep hearing "Pull Up" or stall warnings
The main purpose of the spoilers are just to avoid bouncing. I don't think the autoland system will create any chance of bouncing... In that situation I wouldn't tell her there is such a thing called spoiler if I were the instructor also. PS: Just my opinion, not an expert, always learning....
Stefan Hauge That's what would happen in real life. Someone extremely familiar would have to talk you through the whole process you're just a conduit for them. Obviously a novice could never do it alone
Mike hatyen - You're missing his point. The operator knew exactly what button she was pushing. Some guy in ATC giving commands over the radio will have no idea if she correctly set the flaps, whether a button was correctly engaged, etc.
@@honestrunescaper Nothing to do with the student, everything to do with the teacher. Nobody is born knowing where all the buttons and indicators are in an A320. The teacher has the responsibility to teach and communicate in a clear way that the student understands, instead of acting as if the student is supposed to know that stuff already (unless she was indeed expected to have studied the cockpit before this sim session).
Kimon Froussios I hear you but the student had zero intuition. Locating the landing gear stalk should just be second nature. And honestly I think it’s just a waste of simulator time if you have no idea of cockpit layout
I stopped watching at 0:34. She gets an instruction of HDG, and before the voice finishes talking her hand is already on the knob. An unexperienced person would need minutes to figure out where the autopilot panel is located, and that is after someone saying "look there you will see this".
Holy crap that was painful to watch. She literally couldn't follow the simplest commands. "Look at the screen in front of you" *looks down to the right lol....
In a real event, she would be stressed out to the max. I can understand how she may temporarily get some instructions wrong. It wouldn't be an ATC person talking her down. It would be a senior command pilot, for that type of aircraft, called to the tower specifically to try and talk her down
John, most TH-cam commenters have rarely been outside their bedroom so talking to them about stress or being out of their comfort zone is completely alien to them :)
To be fair, his instructions weren't always the most descriptive. To someone who has never used the controls, and doesn't know the terminology, you need to be absolutely specific. "I want you to locate the heading knob on the autopilot panel, which is the panel in the top center of the dash, up high. The knob is towards the left of that panel. Do you see it? OK. Pull that knob out, and then rotate it TO THE LEFT, until the display above it reads 070. Leave the knob pulled out once you see 070 on the display", etc. Even a simulator can be very stressful and intimidating, and multifunction controls and multiple displays are only intuitive if you are familiar with them. You'd want to be sure the individual at the controls is focused COMPLETELY on the tasks, one at a time, and understands exactly what you are asking them to do. That said, he was good at not being flustered when she made mistakes, and kept her calm. I wasn't sure we were going to stay in the air at first, but he got her going right.
I once got to go in a real B757 airline training simulator and landed it first time. The FMC/ILS was set though so I just had to follow the crosshairs down. I had done lots of hours in Flight Sim too, so was familiar with the instruments.
Should she have not engaged the thrust reversers rather then idle on landing? God she was very slow to understand what was asked and execute the operation.
never did this before, nervous, not sure what button to press, am i pressing the right one, languagebarrier , not familiar with the english used names etc
No, she shouldn't have. That's just one more thing to go wrong in getting the aircraft and its passengers safely onto the tarmac. What happens when she lands safely and panics and forgets about putting them back to idle? Now you've created a new crisis to try to deal with indirectly with an inexperienced "pilot". They would have you land solely on the brakes, even if it meant overshooting the runway, which is unlikely at most airports, especially airports they'd guide an inexperienced pilot to land whenever possible. As for speaking up if she didn't understand what was being asked, that's what pilots are for. Someone with no experience landing a plane in an emergency isn't necessarily going to do things that are ideal or make sense. This is fairly realistic actually.
Many of the comments are hilarious! I really thought the instructor did an excellent job...very patient, never raised his voice, and demonstrated exemplary calmness. He's the kind of first officer I'd like to have onboard when flying. To have never done this before, Greta did remarkably well.
Same. If I was on this flight, I’d probably open a door and jump cuz there is no way that lady is landing that thing safely. She doesn’t even know where the throttle is, and I feel like that is very basic information.
I once had the pleasure of being taken on one of these things by someone who trains pilots (long time ago now), and I remember very well being scared shitless as we took off in a steep climb. It's quite convincing.
Meanwhile me and my brother (who wants to be a pilot) with hundreds of hours in MSFS, will be going to a similar a320 simulator experience, lets see the reactions we get because we'll probably land the plane without any help lmao
Air Traffic Controllers do not necessarily know how to fly an aircraft. They are ground "controllers", but they can't "control" anything, they can only advise course and altitude to the pilots who can control an aircraft and vector the pilots to the approach end of the active runway. Their job is to coordinate among other approaching aircraft to avoid midair collisions. The man talking is an instructor pilot type rated in the A320. Nobody knows in such detail the autopilot controls and avionics except those type rated in the A320. For example, the cockpit layout is different in a Boeing 767. Sincerely, David Parker
Even using a Joystick in GTA5 isnt hard but with all the controls of a real jet its way harder if there is no knowledge present xD i bet @3many15 haven't remembered that ;)
I have a friend who works with simulators and he is always impressed how normal people, even young kids can land big jets. He said that saw a 13 years old boy with home simulator experience only to land a B777 nicely. I myself with Microsoft Flight Simulator experience and two hours of motion simulator on a CRJ 200 was able to land a B737 on a simulator. There is an airline that allows pilots to take their kids to the simulator and they are impressed to see kids 13, 14, 15 years old landing B777 and B767. Most of the training for pilots today is for situations when some equipment is not working or some not normal weather situations. I've talked to a B777 simulator instructor and he said that he can easily make a pilot with private pilot license land a B777 after just two or three hours of instruction and one or two tries. It is all about good instruction.
No, newer Airbus planes don't have yokes. The controls are computerized (fly-by-wire), meaning that the pilot does not directly control the plane. When (s)he moves the joystick, it sends a signal to the flight computer which determines that the maneuver in question is safe before allowing it.
This isn't an inexperience person. The moment the guy on the radio begins giving instructions, she anticipates his instructions and reaches for the very control he will instruct her to adjust. She's either psychic or the video is a lie.
That is simply because she is probably in early stages of pilot training as the captions in the video suggest. So she probably has an idea about some of those systems and has a brief idea what the buttons do but I think it is a first time she actually had a chance to sit in a 320 cockpit or a cockipt of a large plane for that matter. She sometimes tries to use her basic pilot instincts but I doubt they pre-trained this or had it directed.
why does there always have to be some type of conspiracy. The answer is simple but question was not even worth asking due to the tile. She has been in the seat before but is not a pro . see how easy that was ? Inexperienced
Greta faces the challenge of landing an Airbus A320 with guidance from an air traffic controller. The instructor provides clear instructions, guiding her through various steps and settings. It's a nail-biting experience, but Greta handles it well, eventually making a successful landing. This video showcases the complexity of piloting an aircraft and the importance of training and teamwork in aviation. Great job, Greta, and kudos to the instructor for the guidance!
I guess you are right, I myself have a PPL. They bleed the hot compressed air from inside the engine intake, cool it down and let it pass through the cabin. If both engines fail however, you won't sweat, because the APU would be switched on (according to the 777 QRH) which would generate air conditioning from the APU system.
Yeah but in order to use the packs, you need a bleed source (from the engines) and if the engine quits, you won't have any bleed source, therefore the packs wouldn't work
I would say so, too. When she was manually flying, she was pushing the rudder pedals like she was flying a light aircraft. I have the feeling she had a very brief (but useless) introduction to the A320 (by that same inept instructor). Her native language isn't English, either, so no wonder she was confused. Let's see this Microsoft heroes fly the aircraft given instructions in a different language.
A 80 year woman with 0 exp , Landed a Cessna besides her's husband dead body, and a 50 year old men , saved his family landing a King Air after the pilot suffered a heart attack,( in this case he has a little exp in single engine flights ) both cases are in TH-cam with real audio ATC comunications. Must hear !
Most flights are carried out that way anyway and have been for decades. In a flight from Europe to Australia, the plots are only flying the plane for 12 minutes ......and that is only so they can keep up their take-offs and landings on their license.
when you have an emergency like this you will have a pilot not an atc controller talk to the passenger. any pilot should instinctively know where each button and piece of information is.
@Wolfgang Preier depends on type of machine, but if Airbus of Boeing in case, you will find the transponder (for emitting and receiving squawk signals) directly close to radio and navigation boxes (beneath the throttle)
@Wolfgang Preier if you allow, I would like to introduce two exellent clips related to your (very good) questions. Mentour - Can a passenger land a plane? m.th-cam.com/video/ePDl1JNqjpM/w-d-xo.html Captain Joe m.th-cam.com/video/lw6mjVIdbbc/w-d-xo.html Captain Joe: Squawk Code m.th-cam.com/video/H4skJviQlMo/w-d-xo.html
@Wolfgang Preier especially Mentours clip: "Can a passenger land a plane" is doubtlessly recommandable. Believe it or not - the main problem is not to land (doing ideally by CAT3 aporoach), it's to tune in the correct radio frequncy (121.5) in order to contact ATC for further instructions. :) Not to mention, how to enter the pilot's cabin, if even the flight attendants are incapable. (Cabin door is codeguarded, otherwise you can't enter)
She makes it look easy. However the brutal reality is that a pilot has to be able to handle the aircraft when systems fail and to be able to land in very adverse conditions, such as single engine into bad weather with a strong crosswind. The pilots are required to know every system on the aircraft and to diagnose problems quickly, to navigate, to know the course rules of each airport where they intend to take off or land, to understand weather, to choose alternate airports depending on anticipated destination weather and fuel capacity, etc. There is way more to the game than how to switch on the ALS of an aircraft and intercept the glide path so the ALS can take over. There is no way someone even with training in a light aircraft such as a Cessna 172 or a Piper 180 is going to jump into that seat and be competent.
Having flown on two A320s in the last 5 days (and will fly on two more in the next 7 days), I am glad to see so many beeps, warning, klaxons, and flashing lights in the cockpit when you're not 100% on point!

I agree.. it was excruciatingly painful to watch.. that had to be the worst instructor I've ever heard.. she did great despite his horrible instructions
yeah if she is truly inexperienced then telling her to change something without first telling her how to change it could have been disastrous!
@@scottish785 no it wouldnt, at worst she would have put the plane a few miles off course and would have likely realised she isnt lining up with the runway
@@speen9430 but she was following his instructions she is suppose to be inexperienced so she would not be making further adjustments without being told to do so.
If the girl is inexperienced, then why not provide some better instructions? For example, the she pressed the red button twice and yet she was still confused because the "instructor" did not provide proper guidance as to why the alarm was still ringing until the end.
He's a pilot on the ground, instructing through ATC, he's not in the plane in this scenario
That's like trowing a kid into the water and then saying 'swim to shore' while watching the kid drown...
It would also probably help if he had some patience with her and not yell at her when she went to do the wrong thing (eg with the parking brake)
He did not yell at her.
Well not necessarily yelling, as such, but you can hear him begin to lose his temper a little
"In today's Air Crash Investigations"
How to investigate a simulator?
@@muhammadnw5869 LOOOOOOOOOOL
So many critiques and not enough people realizing what this is. This is a training video showing a novice or someone who has never handled a plane, land a plane with control tower helping. This shows how far we've come in airplane technology to be able to still land a plane in an emergency scenario like this. Autopilot and ILS can bring a plane in and make the proper adjustments for a safe landing. I'm sure procedure wise many things weren't ideal. But again for what this is, I applaud her for being able to bring the plane in with control towers help. Crazy at the jokes about women flying, when there are many skilled women Captains who actually fly airliners, unlike most of the folks here who sound like FSX players or had a few runs in a Cessna.
Says in bottom right, this is not a training video, and a very big exclamation point!.
Try to read what it actually says next time.
"DO NOT USE for training purpose".
Basically it's saying this video is copyright to BAA Training and is not to be used by anyone else for training purposes.
blackestnite Mate I had the gold edition and a joystick I know what im doing! ;)
blackestnite this video is fake. she is experienced, look at the first command she gets, she reached for the knobe a split second before he finished instructing her to turn it. thats is what the main criticism is coming from.
I'm sure it's rehearsed, but very to a slight degree.
She previously in all probability had no more than maybe 3 to 4 attempts.
I can't believe he didn't instruct her to contact ATC or change the radio frequency to emergency channel. He just dove in with pilot lingo assuming she'd know what air speed, and heading meant and where to find it. As if the average person walks around with knowledge of aircraft avionics in mind. I wouldn't want this guy talking Martha Stewart through making toast.
Susan Shields He was ATC ...
Who's Martha Stewart??
@SP I think that really depends on your definition of 'inexperienced'.
funny!
Thats exactly what i had to think about. In real life this would have ended in a crash.... With real fear and this kind of instructions --> NO WAY
Did I miss the part where the landing gears were extended?
Fercho Rankin no there down already
@No Body Correct, the landing gear is typically deployed when the glide slope is intercepted, both on an ILS or GPS approach. The gear might have already been down to simplify the process
though out the video I noticed she had them down the whole time
I noticed they were flying the whole time with the gear down.
I assumed that's what AP2 was for.. I"m dumb.
i wanna be a pilot but i don't enough money to pay for this course so there is any scholarship?
If you have questions about our training courses and scholarship possibilities, contact us by email info@baatraining.com
In some countries, the army will cover the expenses if you enroll and serve a few years. I recommend checking that first as doing it privately is VERY expensive :P
in my country, the license cost about 80K euro...
join the military, let them pay for your flight training and AC.
In my country, the bank lends you that money if you enroll any airflight academy. (which wasn't a great idea, since we have too many pilots with massive student debts now)
At 9:30 “How much fuel do you have?”
He sounded like the villain in an action movie. 😂
If he says he is Bill Clay you know it’s bullshit.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
"Mom, I want a flight simulator."
"Why?"
"Yes."
So funny!
Wow. he explained it very good, slow, quiet and understandable :)
Could be a very good instructor for emergency cases.
Thumb up.
He knows he's in a simulator at all times. New pilots can get fully immersed and will react as if they're in a real situation. Which is good. in both positions.
I would love to have a go at this!
Who wouldn’t want to try their hand at flying on one of these simulators? They are certainly a hell of a lot better than one I use at home. Of course I’m sure that, like me, if you were in one you would want to actually fly the plane rather than just telling an auto pilot where to go by turning some knobs (boring). And I would also choose a much more challenging airport to land at, such as the old Hong Kong Airport for example. Its really exhilarating coming right over the tops of those skyscrapers and knowing that if you come in even a little too high you will end up in the bay.
In any case, the level of automation on today’s planes is simply amazing. I just hope the pilots don’t get so used to the automation that they eventually loose their skills at flying manually.
I'd love to have a go as well. Although even simulators are expensive to operate.
you can do all this in FSX
Ask them the next time you fly
There's already evidence that pilots, especially those that are accustomed to the more automated Airbus planes, are less skilled in dealing with emergencies. That's part of why the pilots of Air France 447 didn't realize their pitot tubes were clogged and kept pulling the nose up -- instead of realizing they were in an aerodynamic stall. Some of the most capable pilots are often those who started flying in the military, e.g. Chelsey "Sully" Sullenberger of Hudson River fame (US Airways 1549).
This instructor really needs to watch movie "Turbulence". That is how you give clear and easily understandable instructions to a person who know nothing about flying.
Me: I just want to stop that tone.
ATC: Fly and maintain 4000 feet.
Me: full thrust - let’s see what this bad boy will do!
He tells her to do something and if she looks to a different thing he corrects her immediately because he is behind her watching.... atc would not be able to do that so basically this exercise is not valid she is catually being guided on EVERYTHING she has to do
True.
All I heard was "bing bing bing bing"
Learn what?
legioner9 by doing exactly what he suggested, no looking over the shoulder to see if someone without experience knows what the heck you are trying to explain. Still take video and review it AFTER the exercise and figure out where the explanation of the task is going wrong (or the difficulty of identifying instruments).
That's true.
He corrected her when she was lost.
Atc would not be able to do that. Atc would only give the instructions and thats it. Yes she could have in that situation tell the atc or ask the atc where the button for example is. In this video she turned right heading at first but then he corrected her and said to turn left heading. That is something that the atc would not know that she was turning right heading. And yes the atc would see on their screen that the heading is not right.
If that were me I'd be saying "oops" about 50 times
If that were me by the thousandth beep, i would've been kicked off the plane
Oops? what's oops? We don't like oops.
**sets engine on fire** oops
agh it's so infuriating when she can't find what is being described so clearly, props for the advising person for keeping their cool.
@BAA Training - 1) She was at least partially rehearsed, 2) Your instructions lack vital information, necessary for compliance by a novice, 3) That alarm warning should have been planned for, explained to the student ahead of time, and dealt with quickly... instead of being allowed to remain a distraction and a stressor.
In short: not the best video of its type we've seen.
I was very well impress with her coolness of being on Camera and receiving flight instruction. Being instructed with Boeing technology this was very good for me also. Congratulations Greta, Sam Danner Brisbane QLD Australia Qantas.
Boeing? This is A320, baby bus
this is Airbus
+Max D M, +Themisterfly85, did you read his comment before you posted? He said, quite clearly, that *he* had experience being instructed with Boeing equipment and found this interesting (presumably because of being able to note the differences between Boeing and Airbus).
***** Yes This is an Airbus 320. I know that sir. I am a Boeing man. You misunderstood me sir.
I'd be terrified even knowing it's a simulator. Greta looked so calm. Congratulations !

What do you mean, “the screen in front of you”? They’re ALL in front of me, numbnuts!”
She landed it if that's all you came for.
Actually I came here to she how cute she is.
She didn't seem so inexperienced
They might have done a briefing with her before. Note that on the ND the flight time is over one hour and the land gear lever was the whole time down.
Exactly, so the average person on plane couldn't save the day without prior tutoring🛬
Yea she seems to know all buttons and levers
Really because he said to turn left heading 070, it was at 250, and she started to turn it right? That just seemed like something anyone should know. Told her to press buttons and she couldn’t figure it out... idk she seemed more inept than an average person to me
Also all the buttons and levers are labeled and he told her where to find them
with so many buttons the plane will crash before i even find the 1st button,😂
That's sad. I watch a lot of flight videos. So I know a lot of the buttons.
If the AP is engaged then it will continue to fly.
Im 2 years late but yeah... same here.. all onboard will die.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@emnichtda that's great
I've seen so many of these videos, i feel i can definitely land a plane with assistance...
Nice job. But a little bit of a cheat since the "flight controller" could see her and see what she was struggling with.
Cockpits would have cameras in them now, surely? so if a plane was in distress ground control could assist, or technician, in fact why don't they have cameras?? everything else does, my mates corsa has a dashcam!
(Vauxhall corsa; car)
+Multipricks presents that really isn't such a bad idea.
cockpits do not have cameras.
+zTriton that's what They want you to think.
In her place, in a real airplane, I would probably have died of fright.
Ralph Dratman it's a simulation get it right.
I meant if I had been in her place in a real airplane rather than a simulator.
Ralph Dratman old man no one would have allowed u to sit in a real aero plane at this stage of ur life (no offence)
Ralph Dratman Me too, I really don't like looking out of airplane windows, let alone being in the front of it all.
that's why you need to take a sleeping passenger, blindfold him and then tell him he woke up in a simulator. or take a crew member.
Bless your soul who ever sat trough this whole video without skipping
These trainers are so reassuring and perfect for this type of modules. Bery patient and calm! Wish I could have an instructor like that
I like how landing the damn thing wasn't a problem but finding the hand break was a much bigger issue lol.
What is this nonsense? If she is just supposed to be a normal passenger who ended up in the cockpit, how is she supposed to know which button the "auto thrust" is, where the breaks are, etc? Clearly she must have had some prior knowledge.
That was incredibly cool. Very clear instructions. Didn’t realize just how automated landings could be these days. Weird to see a flight and landing without any yoke inputs.
"Do you see the red light in front of you?" 😂😂😂 I think we all fucken see it
well she's certainly more experienced than me
Faraz Ahmed it was fake
Sounds like my first time.
You stick her with the pointy end
It's all these blinking and flashing lights, all these blinking and flashing lights...
Faraz Ahmed she's cute too!
He's not the Captain he's acting as if he is a pilot on the ground talking through ATC
Right except that ATC knows diddly about the cockpit layout of various aircraft or how the aircraft is equipped.
The aircraft has to be equipped with an ALS and the airport has to be equipped with ALS facilities to make automatic landings possible.
David Parker By atc i mean it could be a pilot on the ground talking to the pilot through ATC, mythbusters had a similar scenario
The controllers will only give basic instructions for example; clearnaces,headings to fly, speed which to fly at, waypoints to fly directly to or to hold at. No control would say, 'you hear the warning sound, press the button to cancel it', just basic instructions - if controllers were to give these indept instructions at a busy airport for example London Heathrow could never operate as the amount of time wasted would be ridiculous, this is why they use only basic instructions.
But he's not the captain, she's alone in the cockpit, it can only be a pilot on the ground speaking through ATC
TheRabbitFear Yes shes alone, but that wasn't my point my point, I was only telling you the instructions air traffic control would give.
The alarm noise alone would have killed me if I continued to watch this
can you explain where did she learn wheres the heading control?!
I Think EVERY crew member should know the basics of landing their corresponding jet before taking a job as a steward/ist
it is the works of Naruto jutsu.
Yep exactly. Just give them 1-2 hours of training in a simulator like this, show them where the controls are. That way, they'll be experienced that most of the passengers unless one of the passengers happen to be a flight simulator enthusiast or an actual commercial pilot. Flight attendants often ride on different models of planes so the controls can vary a lot. Like the A320 has the yoke on the left side while most planes have it in the center.
My Dad flew for Eastern Airlines for 30 years. He said that the head stew could fly the plane, or at least be talked down, if both pilots were incapacitated. If not, the air marshal breaks cover and takes over. Every flight has one; at least, that's what airlines want you to believe. I've heard that marshals are spread very thin, very overworked, 48 hour shifts.
Oh, har har, thanks but no thanks for that completely worthless information. Don't quit that day job, if you have one.
A situation where both pilots of an airliner are incapacitated has NEVER happened in aviation history.
This went exactly as I expected. But cheers for this girl for doing her best.
I wouldn't want him talking me down, too condescending! Needs to explain where to look first
I disagree. He was calm, but firm. The voice of authority, but tempered with comments such as "I would suggest ..." and "well done." Since he was dealing with an amateur who may be prone to panic if overwhelmed, I think he did it perfectly.
An Amateur won't generally know what flaps do, what ILS is and what things like glide slope indicators are. I think he should have used simpler terms. A civilian with two incapacitated pilots would break under much less pressure.
I think perhaps describing where someone is to look before you give a command is VERY effective. EG:
"Now do you see the large screens in front of you, good, there will be a blue section called glide slope "
instead of " Do you see on the FCU Glide slope localiser blue " or "Do you see the lock star indicator on your PFD" He should start with "The screens in front of you, the line on top, does it say lock star"
Do you understand what I mean?
+That Camera Guy My thoughts exactly. Classic example of someone who cannot put themselves in the mindset of a novice because they have been in the a field too long and can no longer teach.
That Camera Guy - OK, I do see your point, and I agree 100%. After watching it again, I saw that there were times when the guy should have been more clear about the location of the controls he was referring to. He should have prefaced all commands with a location first, even when the girl had already used a control, since it was a training session.
By the way; ... which cameras are you the "guy" of? I shoot professional sports, with Nikon and Sigma gear. I could be wrong, but you're way too logical to be a Canon shooter. (childish inside photography joke, folks...sorry)
Oops. That should have been "since it was NOT a training session."
The girl is struggling with the plane, and the instructor is struggling with english... I believe the girl is winning.
Is there even an airport left? By the time she set the break it would be like in the movie Airplane when the plane crashed into the airport.
Airports have ample runway space for the airplanes they are designed to accommodate -_-
Would the tower be able to see the pilot to give feedback like, "No, pull the knob" and "No, turn it left."
No. That's why they would get a pilot to talk her down.
I think it would be a good idea to install a life video feed of the cockpit as well as the controls much like we see here to the control tower in case of an emergency it will be activated.
Even if we can land 1 plane by doing so the investment is well worth it, even if it goes wrong we can all learn from what happened and try to do better next time.
Great news for hijackers
You obviously didn't hear them staying what to move and how to move it.
I recall him saying "you are turning right, turn LEFT to ". The radar operator would definitely be able to see the plane beginning a right turn when a left turn had been requested. As far as pulling the knob vs. pushing it, when you have given an instruction and don't see any change for a while, you might assume that the person is not doing quite what they need to do, so you give them a little more info, like "pull to select, push to command". Might have been better to have explained that (and he might have before this started, because she seemed to be able to at least find the autopilot panel in the first place).
Those textures are pretty crappy, Flight Simulator X had better.
IF you can afford Real Life!!!
Does FSX have a cabin? SMH...
Ganil depends what plane you use lol -_-
it looks crapy cause its another camera recording another projecting screen
P3D? come back when you try xplane :P
Not a bad landing(in the simulator) for someone who supposedly has never done this before. She didn't crash it into the runway - that's always a bonus, and easy to do in the simulator if you really don't know anything about flying. EDIT: Reading some of the comments makes me lose the will to live. The video title was 'Inexperienced girl', yet many of the commenter's are talking like she is fully qualified, and should have done this, should have done that, blah, blah, blah. It clearly states in the description, this was the first time she sat in the cockpit - I think she did a stellar job in landing the simulator, for someone who has no knowledge of what it is to be a pilot. Some of you people are WAY too critical.
But it was like "She haven't been in the kitchen before", yet finds everything around the kitchen on the first try. It clearly wasn't her first time, maybe her first time alone, yet she isn't alone he is literally standing over her shoulder seeing if she does it right or not. She clearly have been guided multiple times before where everything is positioned. She is guided more like she was qualified to fly, she was giving TASKS to, not instructions. Think of it like it's your first time in a manual car, the instructions says "put it into gear one" and somehow you know how to do that without hesitation just from that line, seriously now?
Autopilot and Autoland are certainly big helps.
Autopilot and autoland have got people killed because of inaccuracies
Organic Memes Auto land is used in bad weather landings
name one case where autoland lead to a crash with fatalities
+Scott 1 ILS can be set up but it's not always accurate. Not all airports have it either. The landing will always be rough even with ILS, no matter what.
Organic Memes once
I didn't hear anything about the landing gear... Did I miss that? Or do they come out with the autopilot landing assist?
oh yeah, did she land on the belly? lol
The Landing gear was already down.. they were flying at 4000ft
Gear was down the whole time.
Before landing the middle top screen said Gear on.
I just wanted to say good luck, we're all counting on you
"Inexperienced girl trying to land A320 - Instructed" I expected someone to try and do it on their own, oh well maybe next time.
the idea being that she'd be receiving instruction from an air traffic controller, just like in real life...
When I say "Inexperience", means playing Flight Simulator with muting ATC voice, randomly press any buttons and keep hearing "Pull Up" or stall warnings
im going at 250 knots with full flaps, why do I keep getting an "over speed" warning!?!?!?!?!?!??
I have spoliers armed, flaps at full, and my rudder is jammed to the right, and I have a stall warning. what am i doing?
@Maxwell Smart Yea uhm, we just got bird striked on both engines.
@@Kaotix_music I'd say, "Oh Shit!!!"...
This girl didn't even deploy spoilers, what a shame.
ScienceRedstoneGaming no need if you check the left PFD she was on the marge of stalling the plane
ScienceRedstoneGaming ..The spoilers might have been in the armed position.
Silviu Tudorescu Deploying it after touchdown
Kiku Aviation Eh, that's true.
never mind that..I wanted her to open her flaps....lol....
The main purpose of the spoilers are just to avoid bouncing. I don't think the autoland system will create any chance of bouncing... In that situation I wouldn't tell her there is such a thing called spoiler if I were the instructor also.
PS: Just my opinion, not an expert, always learning....
I didn't hear "press gear down".
It was down from the beginning.
I was waiting for him to yell that just before they hit the ground.
Also thought he just forgot that. That would've been quite embarassing.
wait...gear down from beginning...too early. Should be down when near approach
Plane was on auto pilot
he was looking at the cockpit the entire time and he already knew all of the information, so he technically did everything for her.
Stefan Hauge That's what would happen in real life. Someone extremely familiar would have to talk you through the whole process you're just a conduit for them. Obviously a novice could never do it alone
They wouldn't have video though.
Mike hatyen - You're missing his point. The operator knew exactly what button she was pushing. Some guy in ATC giving commands over the radio will have no idea if she correctly set the flaps, whether a button was correctly engaged, etc.
Dont they see how the plane reacts on the radar?
ATC can only see ground speed, elevation, and course...but there is a definite lag.
I feel like the flight attendants should get knowledge on how to handle a plane, land or fly it just in case anything happens.
Then why we need pilots? Fly a plane and serve the coffee. Saving $
Sounds like me when I'm trying to be really patient with someone. I understand she was inexperienced but damn that was hard to watch.
Yea, I agree.
So bad. Clearly technically challenged b
Then you’re a good teacher.
@@honestrunescaper Nothing to do with the student, everything to do with the teacher. Nobody is born knowing where all the buttons and indicators are in an A320. The teacher has the responsibility to teach and communicate in a clear way that the student understands, instead of acting as if the student is supposed to know that stuff already (unless she was indeed expected to have studied the cockpit before this sim session).
Kimon Froussios I hear you but the student had zero intuition. Locating the landing gear stalk should just be second nature. And honestly I think it’s just a waste of simulator time if you have no idea of cockpit layout
I stopped watching at 0:34. She gets an instruction of HDG, and before the voice finishes talking her hand is already on the knob. An unexperienced person would need minutes to figure out where the autopilot panel is located, and that is after someone saying "look there you will see this".
oh yeah
Holy crap that was painful to watch. She literally couldn't follow the simplest commands. "Look at the screen in front of you" *looks down to the right lol....
In a real event, she would be stressed out to the max. I can understand how she may temporarily get some instructions wrong. It wouldn't be an ATC person talking her down. It would be a senior command pilot, for that type of aircraft, called to the tower specifically to try and talk her down
John, most TH-cam commenters have rarely been outside their bedroom so talking to them about stress or being out of their comfort zone is completely alien to them :)
let say you have a plane with 146 kids, there is probably one who can already do this on simulator, he would be the one I chose to do this
To be fair, his instructions weren't always the most descriptive. To someone who has never used the controls, and doesn't know the terminology, you need to be absolutely specific. "I want you to locate the heading knob on the autopilot panel, which is the panel in the top center of the dash, up high. The knob is towards the left of that panel. Do you see it? OK. Pull that knob out, and then rotate it TO THE LEFT, until the display above it reads 070. Leave the knob pulled out once you see 070 on the display", etc. Even a simulator can be very stressful and intimidating, and multifunction controls and multiple displays are only intuitive if you are familiar with them. You'd want to be sure the individual at the controls is focused COMPLETELY on the tasks, one at a time, and understands exactly what you are asking them to do. That said, he was good at not being flustered when she made mistakes, and kept her calm. I wasn't sure we were going to stay in the air at first, but he got her going right.
I once got to go in a real B757 airline training simulator and landed it first time. The FMC/ILS was set though so I just had to follow the crosshairs down. I had done lots of hours in Flight Sim too, so was familiar with the instruments.
Should she have not engaged the thrust reversers rather then idle on landing? God she was very slow to understand what was asked and execute the operation.
Mark Murphy did she land with the front Gears
never did this before, nervous, not sure what button to press, am i pressing the right one, languagebarrier , not familiar with the english used names etc
Yeah, she should've spoken up if she didn't understand what was being asked.
No, she shouldn't have. That's just one more thing to go wrong in getting the aircraft and its passengers safely onto the tarmac. What happens when she lands safely and panics and forgets about putting them back to idle? Now you've created a new crisis to try to deal with indirectly with an inexperienced "pilot". They would have you land solely on the brakes, even if it meant overshooting the runway, which is unlikely at most airports, especially airports they'd guide an inexperienced pilot to land whenever possible.
As for speaking up if she didn't understand what was being asked, that's what pilots are for. Someone with no experience landing a plane in an emergency isn't necessarily going to do things that are ideal or make sense. This is fairly realistic actually.
You did forget that THIS simulated scenario had pilots incapacitated and she was talking to ATC, didn't you?
I would have one of those in my house if I was super rich
An A320 simulator, or a Greta?
scrap A320, give me Greta
Both
A320 dogfights yes!. that would be a clumsy fight lol
If I was super rich I would get the plane itself....LOL
Many of the comments are hilarious! I really thought the instructor did an excellent job...very patient, never raised his voice, and demonstrated exemplary calmness. He's the kind of first officer I'd like to have onboard when flying. To have never done this before, Greta did remarkably well.
i think she did a great job for first time and the instructor was very patient with her, great job !
i'm watching this knowing that she is in a simulator, yet i'm still scared as shit.
Same. If I was on this flight, I’d probably open a door and jump cuz there is no way that lady is landing that thing safely. She doesn’t even know where the throttle is, and I feel like that is very basic information.
@@carteroliver2475 yeah its prolly basic for her having 0 knowledge and someone comanding her without even teaching her where those are
@@HarryOliverx That's what I was thinking watching this video.
I once had the pleasure of being taken on one of these things by someone who trains pilots (long time ago now), and I remember very well being scared shitless as we took off in a steep climb. It's quite convincing.
"you can adjust thrust levers to climb"

Meanwhile me and my brother (who wants to be a pilot) with hundreds of hours in MSFS, will be going to a similar a320 simulator experience, lets see the reactions we get because we'll probably land the plane without any help lmao
"A girl lands a plane" when actually autopilot does, furthermore, captain told her everything she needed to do
Actually the pilot was posing as the atc and that's what atcs do.
Air Traffic Controllers do not necessarily know how to fly an aircraft.
They are ground "controllers", but they can't "control" anything, they can only advise course and altitude to the pilots who can control an aircraft and vector the pilots to the approach end of the active runway. Their job is to coordinate among other approaching aircraft to avoid midair collisions.
The man talking is an instructor pilot type rated in the A320. Nobody knows in such detail the autopilot controls and avionics except those type rated in the A320. For example, the cockpit layout is different in a Boeing 767.
Sincerely,
David Parker
A320's literally do everything for you. All that matters is once you reach minimums, cut the throttle and flare
Ford Morris Ever modern plane does that
Slavik ua Yea but with other aircraft you may have to set your heading or your speed or your vertical speed. The Airbus's are just flying computers
i fly jets in gta5 and its not this hard
I hope that's a joke.
please tell me your a troll
yea right
That's probably because you fly to your death, isn't it?
Even using a Joystick in GTA5 isnt hard but with all the controls of a real jet its way harder if there is no knowledge present xD i bet @3many15 haven't remembered that ;)
Gear down during the whole flight ???
May be built into the auto land.
No dude it was not down until 300 feet, I am wondering the same thing.
I have a friend who works with simulators and he is always impressed how normal people, even young kids can land big jets. He said that saw a 13 years old boy with home simulator experience only to land a B777 nicely. I myself with Microsoft Flight Simulator experience and two hours of motion simulator on a CRJ 200 was able to land a B737 on a simulator. There is an airline that allows pilots to take their kids to the simulator and they are impressed to see kids 13, 14, 15 years old landing B777 and B767. Most of the training for pilots today is for situations when some equipment is not working or some not normal weather situations. I've talked to a B777 simulator instructor and he said that he can easily make a pilot with private pilot license land a B777 after just two or three hours of instruction and one or two tries. It is all about good instruction.
Awesome! I'm going to use this for training purposes!
no yoke on those planes? what happens if the computer fails and can't steer?
There is a joystick to the left of her; you can see the little black one on the right
I'm sure it was just removed for the demo?
No, newer Airbus planes don't have yokes. The controls are computerized (fly-by-wire), meaning that the pilot does not directly control the plane. When (s)he moves the joystick, it sends a signal to the flight computer which determines that the maneuver in question is safe before allowing it.
***** that is a sidestick, not a yoke
***** it is ok
I wouldn't count this as her trying to land it because the dude is walking her through it, telling her how and when to do everything.
Hats off to the calm of the the instructor and the courage of girl!
I wish this channel wouldn't hide the likes and dislikes.
Harold Tupper "I wish this channel wouldn't hide the likes and dislikes."
This isn't an inexperience person. The moment the guy on the radio begins giving instructions, she anticipates his instructions and reaches for the very control he will instruct her to adjust. She's either psychic or the video is a lie.
It's also possible that the audio for the instructions and the rest of the video had to be merged, and they just weren't lined up perfectly.
That's what I thought as well. He was telling her the name of the control and she just reached for the exact one out of the 3000 switches
That is simply because she is probably in early stages of pilot training as the captions in the video suggest. So she probably has an idea about some of those systems and has a brief idea what the buttons do but I think it is a first time she actually had a chance to sit in a 320 cockpit or a cockipt of a large plane for that matter. She sometimes tries to use her basic pilot instincts but I doubt they pre-trained this or had it directed.
Jiří Pečonka Or it could be the 2nd, 3rd or 4th take on the video/
why does there always have to be some type of conspiracy.
The answer is simple but question was not even worth asking due to the tile.
She has been in the seat before but is not a pro .
see how easy that was ?
Inexperienced
what happens if you go straight down at full speed ? assuming you won't get in trouble for doing it
Firstname Lastname then u go straight down and also probably over speed lol common sense
Greta faces the challenge of landing an Airbus A320 with guidance from an air traffic controller. The instructor provides clear instructions, guiding her through various steps and settings. It's a nail-biting experience, but Greta handles it well, eventually making a successful landing. This video showcases the complexity of piloting an aircraft and the importance of training and teamwork in aviation. Great job, Greta, and kudos to the instructor for the guidance!
Do you know why the engines are coolers for the pilot? Because if the engines stop, the pilot starts to sweat.
Completely false. Aircraft use packs which is used Mostly to pressurize the aircraft and also provide air conditioning to the people on board.
it was a joke, but it's also technically true. Ask any pilot who has flown any prop-driven aircraft what happens if the engine quits in-flight.
I guess you are right, I myself have a PPL. They bleed the hot compressed air from inside the engine intake, cool it down and let it pass through the cabin. If both engines fail however, you won't sweat, because the APU would be switched on (according to the 777 QRH) which would generate air conditioning from the APU system.
Yeah but in order to use the packs, you need a bleed source (from the engines) and if the engine quits, you won't have any bleed source, therefore the packs wouldn't work
... you're not a pilot, are you.
The girl is not totally new to flying, shes a student at an aviation school.
she must be a bad student i can do this way better by only playing microsoft flight simulator for about 100 hours
I would say so, too. When she was manually flying, she was pushing the rudder pedals like she was flying a light aircraft. I have the feeling she had a very brief (but useless) introduction to the A320 (by that same inept instructor). Her native language isn't English, either, so no wonder she was confused. Let's see this Microsoft heroes fly the aircraft given instructions in a different language.
*these
+danny Q fo real.. it seems she doesn't even know the difference between push or pull
*****
The instructor sees what she does. Without that she would still search for auto thrust...
A 80 year woman with 0 exp , Landed a Cessna besides her's husband dead body, and a 50 year old men , saved his family landing a King Air after the pilot suffered a heart attack,( in this case he has a little exp in single engine flights ) both cases are in TH-cam with real audio ATC comunications. Must hear !
Why not just fly it like a drone?
Ikr, why can't they just use remote controls.
Sry if you meant like an actual drone and not those ones you can buy from a toy shop.
do you know how easy that would be to hijack
Most flights are carried out that way anyway and have been for decades. In a flight from Europe to Australia, the plots are only flying the plane for 12 minutes ......and that is only so they can keep up their take-offs and landings on their license.
lol no, they aren't flown with remote controls lol
He should've been in a different room not telling her there is a red button in front of you push it
when you have an emergency like this you will have a pilot not an atc controller talk to the passenger. any pilot should instinctively know where each button and piece of information is.
Anas saleh
She has too learn somehow
Agreed.
Anas saleh are you crazy.. they will all die. If he was not around
Paul A and what difference does that make. Inexperienced means inexperienced no matter what gender.
Why were there no sparks and grinding noise upon landing. Unless I missed something there was never any indication that she lowered the gear.
You missed nothing. She never lowered the landing gear.
And did she engage reverse thrusters upon landing. I can hear only the instructor telling to push brake pedals
@@falandobadheeu8801 yeah I saw thrust reversers & I saw her turn them off too!
Greta did a great job! Also shout out to the guy on the radio talking her thru it...he never lost his cool
Ok, great job. Here is a hint --> Squak 7500, and go on out of the cockpit. Trust me, some one will help you
*cough* F-18 *cough*
ha, ha, ha!!!!
Why so nasty? :D Folks, if prefering not to get bombed, try 7700 (general emergency) ;)
@Wolfgang Preier depends on type of machine, but if Airbus of Boeing in case, you will find the transponder (for emitting and receiving squawk signals) directly close to radio and navigation boxes (beneath the throttle)
@Wolfgang Preier if you allow, I would like to introduce two exellent clips related to your (very good) questions.
Mentour - Can a passenger land a plane?

Captain Joe

Captain Joe: Squawk Code
m.th-cam.com/video/H4skJviQlMo/w-d-xo.html
@Wolfgang Preier especially Mentours clip: "Can a passenger land a plane" is doubtlessly recommandable. Believe it or not - the main problem is not to land (doing ideally by CAT3 aporoach), it's to tune in the correct radio frequncy (121.5) in order to contact ATC for further instructions. :)
Not to mention, how to enter the pilot's cabin, if even the flight attendants are incapable. (Cabin door is codeguarded, otherwise you can't enter)
Just imagine how good she will after several more attempts. She is smart...
She makes it look easy. However the brutal reality is that a pilot has to be able to handle the aircraft when systems fail and to be able to land in very adverse conditions, such as single engine into bad weather with a strong crosswind. The pilots are required to know every system on the aircraft and to diagnose problems quickly, to navigate, to know the course rules of each airport where they intend to take off or land, to understand weather, to choose alternate airports depending on anticipated destination weather and fuel capacity, etc.
There is way more to the game than how to switch on the ALS of an aircraft and intercept the glide path so the ALS can take over.
There is no way someone even with training in a light aircraft such as a Cessna 172 or a Piper 180 is going to jump into that seat and be competent.
The State should make sure you don't get around children being that abusive to kids. :-)
Smart? Really? She couldn't tell the difference between "Push" and "Pull".
+Francis Bagbey she was nervous
Everything but smart, after 14 minutes, she still dont remember where is the heading knob
I miss you Pranas.. The only reason I subscribed. But I stay subscribed anyway
Having flown on two A320s in the last 5 days (and will fly on two more in the next 7 days), I am glad to see so many beeps, warning, klaxons, and flashing lights in the cockpit when you're not 100% on point!
