@@timonsolus - It's not about the autopilot "saving" them - in an emergency it's perfectly OK to use the autopilot once the aircraft is stabilised in order for the crew to focus on assessing the situation and planning next steps. Here they tried to re-engage it too early, but they'd have known that the autopilot couldn't fly a recovery for them. Note that the Captain had 10,000 flying hours - they almost certainly had the experience to know the basics and then some, but an upset like that can shake anyone up.
I completely agree with the OP. As the plane was rapidly losing altitude, some pilots might have pulled it out of its dive too sharply, which can damage the aircraft so badly that it becomes a lawn dart. Well done to this crew.
@@karlinchina And yet many pilots encountering these issues didn't recover killing everyone. These pilots did recover, and there was no loss of life...
As a fellow Canadian I'm going to defend the dispatcher's misreading of the storm location on too many Tim Horton's coffee & donuts on the job...& also probably speaking in metric eh!
One thing I did after getting my private pilots licence (I am not commercial and have never flown jets) was to complete a emergency manoeuvre training program in a Pitts. It was great and really taught you to be on top of where the power setting was. It looked like the pilots waited a while before reducing power which would have resulted in more speed in the dive. I could be wrong but as a new pilot learning how to recover from fully developed spins (albeit not in IMC) was invaluable.
The Embraer 145 is the best plane I’ve ever flown. The systems are really well thought out, mx resets are super easy, and it’s a tank. I’ve flown Falcon 900’s, Lear 20 series, 737, and emb 145. There could be better stuff out there, but amongst those, the embraer is the one for me.
Amazing pilots and the aircraft they were flying! I was waiting for signs of in flight breakup occurring but thankfully the pilots regained control before that happened!
I am surprised the aircraft was not severely damaged from the stress. I also wonder about the stress on the passengers and crew. If I had been on that flight, that may well have been my last flight on any aircraft. The pilots kept their cool and saved everyone.
@@karlinchina No, I didn't miss that part. Can you contribute to the discussion by providing an explanation for why you think they banked more to the right? They obviously corrected their mistake as the aircraft did not smash into the ground at the speed of sound after disintegrating in midair as it plunged straight down.
"The aircraft pitches down and rolls to the right." Then the pilots increase power and bank to the right. I'm not a pilot but that is sure to worsen the situation. At 4:42: "The pilots bank to the right, increasing the bank..." What kind of idiocy is this? Great video as usual Allec.
When I was aviating at FL 370 and needed to get around weather, I talked with the controller, not dispatch. No one knows their airspace better than ARTCC.
The pilots did a great job! They knew what they were doing and everyone on board made it safe and sound! Bravo to a great crew in the cockpit!🙂🙂🛫🛫🛫🛫💯💯💯
Exactly. Repeated disengages of the autopilot system indicate either A) autopilot system malfunction or B) aircraft currently operating at/in parameters outside of autopilot programming. In any case if the autopilot won’t engage, QUIT SCREWING WITH IT!! Just hand fly. You’re in an RJ on a flight from KGRR to KEWR, not a freaking 12-14 hr ETOPS trip!!!! Is it that hard to HAND FLY your aircraft???? Seriously, WTF???
When the pilots had control, they made it worse. At least autopilot doesn't bank to the right when the plane is already banking 63 degrees to the right.
Not much skill on that flight deck. What was their planned FL? Did they over climb the airplane to get on top? Severe icing at high altitude? Calling Dispatch for CB avoidance? Don’t know how to use weather radar on the airplane? Try to recover by turning the autopilot on? Scary!
Pleasantly surprised that the pilots were not instinctively blamed. Did the company dispatch knowingly misuse the company software (my guess is no)? I, too, would like to know if NDT techniques (ultrasonic, eddy current, etc) were used to inspect the airframe after this incident because I would not trust this particular airplane unless it's thoroughly checked out.
In my totally unqualified opinion, expecting the pilots to anticipate a sudden change in the weather is a bit harsh. The situation deteriorated very quickly, and it sounds like they asked for assistance as soon as possible. The radar system used by the dispatcher seems to have made things worse by minimizing the size of the storm.
I get where you're coming from, but it's incumbent on the pilots to, before takeoff, check for any SIGMET reports, plan for going around any bad weather along the flight path, and make preparations for diverting to another airfield if necessary. You never fly into thunderstorms.
There's your problem. The pilots should have already been aware of the thunderstorms via a SIGMET report or through one of several other readily obtainable online resources. There's even a phone number that pilots can call to get current meteorological information. Never contact a dispatcher when danger seems imminent. The pilots should have contacted the nearest ARTCC personnel upon seeing the thunderstorms and simply told them that they were in danger of getting boxed in. They are much more highly trained and would be looking at a much better and more comprehensive radar image of the airspace. They could have then vectored them to completely avoid the weather, given them reports from other pilots in the area, and provided flight following until they were out of danger. Flying into IMC is sometimes unavoidable, but you never ever fly into thunderstorms, ever. The pilots did a great job of saving the aircraft, but they shouldn't have gotten in to those dangerous conditions to begin with.
The Captain is in charge of navigation, not the dispatcher. Also, why was the power not reduced earlier once they had an excessive descent rate? Why did they repeatedly try to re-engage the autopilot? They should have been flying manually in those conditions.
In far too many of these events, we see the pilots wasting valuable time to decrease power whether in flight or on landing. I'd be instinctively backing off on it immediately. Maybe that was in my training at some point, though I don't recall. Even in a car, when things start going south, back off the throttle immediately!
Take over manual control of the aircraft - Forget about the autopilot at this point ! It is now showtime - You better be ready , and very talented pilot . You got yourself squarely Into deep shit . Show me your skill level = now … Go ! Hotshot 🤨
You say pilot pitched to the right when the plane was already banked too far right. Are you sure the pilot did that, or did the plane pitch to the right which is different?
The pilots got them out of it, but why add right input when in an excessive right bank? They should have pulled up when in the runaway descent and pulled back on the throttle earlier.
Those were the times.. Were you had super experienced crews even at the regional level.. Mainly because of limited and also corrupt hiring (eg nepotism, who you know etc) at the mainline. You'd be lucky now if the ca had more than 3k and fo more than 1k.
The pilots did an outstanding job recovering the aircraft, and the aircraft did an outstanding job staying together. I've flown in and around thunderstorms and it's always interesting, but NEVER was it anything like that!
So twice the pilots turned the plane deeper into a critical and excessive bank to the right? Why? What were they thinking? Even if they weren't thinking and were reacting wouldn't the natural reaction be to turn the opposite direction of the roll? Difficult to praise the pilots here for saving the aircraft since their poor judgement regarding proactive weather guidance and their inexplicable control inputs put them in the peril they had to recover from.
I was also waiting for an explanation of why they increased the bank angle. I suspect that under stress they may have mistook the horizon line on the AI for the wing position
Totally incompetent pilots imho... Just to ensure that I got that right: The pilots contacted their dispatch (?!?) for a routing around or out of the weahter ahead??? Sheesh - where has basic airmanship gone? Don't they have an onboard weather radar? Don't they know how to use it? A sure fire way to spot an incompetent pilot / crew ist the repeated attempt to engage the autopilot. Don't they know that autopilots switch themselves off if parameters are too far out of their 'envelope'? Well - and forive my frenchs - but people like this 'crew' have nothing lost in a cockpit. Period. More and more we see not aviators in cockpits but mere systems managers without a clue about airmansip. The industry truly is in a sad state...
The incompetence of the Pilots Flying, got them into an unnecessary situation where they needed to save the day. If they had been competent, they wouldn't flown into a huge thunderstorm in the first place.
Hi Allec, I like your videos and apreciate the work you do but I think you should find another platform for the videos. TH-cam is getting worse and worse, too much advertising and deleting comments.
Software ? No ! Pilot decision making yes . Go for it idiots , No ! Calling company dispatch To get you out of a jam that you put your flight into says a lot about the gang in the cockpit . Buy a new job / line of non - work . Can you run a tire busting machine ? Push carts ? Hey ! 😅
The pilots blew this big time. They flew like students. All you can do in SEVERE turbluance is keep the wings as level as possible, reduce airspeed to maneuvering speed and ride the elevator. Have ATC clear a block of airspace. Then FLY! Don't be switching the autopilot on and off trying to get it to save your ignorant ass. And if you go into a dive PULL THE POWER BACK ASAP! It should already be reduced. Sixty six degree diving bank with 3/4's power is so incompetent I have no words. Bigger problems here than software which too many pilots today rely on. And yes I have four decades experience as a pilot so save it!
Pilots and aircraft performed way better than expected! Hope everyone was rewarded! Two weird things: why couldn't the pilots use the onboard weather radar and why were they so focused on the autopilot.
Because they wer incompetent? Because instead of analyzing thier onboard weather radar they chose to get a way out straight from the horses mouth (aka the dispatcher sitting a few hundreed miles away)? Sheesh...
I am a bit surprised that the landing gear still extended after that rediculous maneuver in This thing . NOT a F - 15 Eagle ! Miracle they lived through this - nonsense ? You can’t do this with this type aircraft , period . The wings were probably bent after this “ flight” . Just say No ! Buy a new job - fellers Go to church every Sunday !
The Pilots did a good job to recover the flight from a dangerous situation with a happy ending. Unfortunately the same can not be said of a similar incident in Brazil where Pilots lost complete control of the aircraft ending in disaster.
You never use radar to go through weather, you use it to AVOID weather. Pathetic that the pilots allowed themselves to get into this situation in the first place.
Jesus. Thought for SURE this was a disaster one. 7,500 ft/m descent rate + 77-degree bank angle?! It really didn't look too promising there for a bit...
All people survived. Plane landed without further incident, but I promise you a number of undergarments did NOT survive their own little incidents.
The passengers must've thought they'd had it. I would have.
Or thought they were at an amusement park and the latest roller coaster ride...
This reminds me of Southern Airways Flt 242, where inadequate and outdated weather information led them directly into a hail storm.
I flew from Birmingham to Atlanta that stormy night, right after learning that 242 had crashed near Atlanta. Not my most relaxed flight.

It seemed that recovery was not easy or assured. Thanks pilots for not giving up.

@nighttrain1236 they were disoriented from the turbulence. So, they felt like they were banking left. But they were banking right.
In this Case Altitude is your insurance or your bank account. If you dont have any altitude left you are in big trouble.
Always so satisfying when we see the plane come in for a landing at the end, I usually say out loud "Yes! They made it!!!" Lol
What a scary experience
I like how you make these videos on the anniversary of the incidents. Nice work.
