RIP Marcelo and Marcela (my brother and his wife) it’s so sad I cant stop thinking about that day 11 years later 🙏🏽😔
God bless
Really??
RIP sorry bro that's terrible. i wish the best for you and your family.
RIP
I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope they rest in peace.
Anyone else get shivers when the water came into view?
My heart dropped
I'm aquaphobic man I almost died lol
Yes. The pilots probably couldn't even see the water because it was dark, but their instruments at the end told them they were doomed as they ran out of altitude.
this simulation shows as if the plane glided on to the water ... completely inaccurate, it hit the water at close to terminal velocity so around 150mph.
no
I keep coming back to this one. I think it's the last line "Damn it we're going to crash. This can't be happening." What a chilling thing to think about. Someone actually said those words as they saw the vast empty Atlantic ocean sweep into view. The sense of disbelief he expresses is so intriguing. You can almost hear him asking to wake up from a stress dream. Absolutely terrifying.
It was a storm they probably didn’t even see the ocean probably just the VSI (vertical speed indicator) showing a loss of 12000feet/minute and they altitude of less than 4000 feet on the altimeter, that’s an impact in about 20 seconds with no correction
Anyways life is a dream bud either a fairy-tale or a nightmare. U choose.
If Bonin (the guy who said those words) hadn't been such an utter retard, it would've all been avoided.
@@Ber-wt3hpRobert and the Captian are probably beating up the other first officer I the afterlife.
I've watched and read a lot about this case. They didn't see nothing outside as it was pitch black outside and no moonlight whatsoever.
Bonin once even misinterpreted the buffeting for a crazy overspeed while they were doing the exact opposite.
Quite early robert realised the rapid increase in altitude and said several times to go back down but he let bonin keep flying the aircraft, due to huge stress communication broke down, dual inputs and so on..
One of the most memorable crashes for me. Literally everything that Pierre did was so wrong....they may as well have had a passenger up there flying.
A passenger would have done better if told one thing “dont panically pull back on the controls”
Pierre might as well been trying to crash. One of the most worthless pilots ever
Exactly Renfri, there was literally nothing wrong with the aircraft, and nothing wrong with the environment it was flying in, this plane crashed due completely to the extreme incompetance displayed by the first officer. Just wow.
That Pierre guy is a real dunce! Am I right guys?
hahaha
For some reason, Crashing in oceans seems more haunting than crashing over land mass
At least you can die with your own species around...but Oceans, damn that's like crashing in an alien ghost town...
I swear! Haunting, with no light but darkness for hundreds of miles, with sound of nothing but the crashing water and depth.
I know most people don't experience that last part as the planes explodes immediately upon impact with the surface but imagine being somehow alive and trapped inside the cabin underneath the water, waiting to drown slowly. Absolutely horrifying. Kind of reminds you of the Titanic, particularly because it was the same ocean.
@@munimzahoor5950 You explained the exact fear that surrounds it, In land crashes I can pray to stay alive after the impact but In oceans ones, I'll pray to die as soon as possible because sooner or later its my fate so why not asap..
Edit: It happened in one of the crashes simulated on this channel, passengers inflated their life jackets before impact and plane took them down with itself
@@NPCLIVESMATTER723 By the time they hit the water, mostly people are unconscious, the fear would have shocked them into weird state, its the fall that's most painful, knowing the end is near, then the brain shuts off.
And surviving on land...hey help is nearby most likely. In the ocean...AT NIGHT? The ocean is a primal fear for me. Fuck that.
Smash Diggins My mother has a terrifying fear of the sea. And by terrifying I mean, if she sees a pic or a video of the ocean, she’ll start to have panic attacks. At a young age, I wanted to go on a cruise ship and all that. But growing up, I would constantly see how much fear my mum goes through due to the ocean. And now that I’m older, I too have that fear because of her. And honestly the sea terrifies me like nothing else. Even now, when I think about it, I get completely restless. I wanted to really visit places like the US, Canada and South America but living in the U.K., I know I’d have to travel over the Atlantic and I just can’t do it man.
This "accident" proves how important communication is. There was a lack of communication.
Exactly!!! Preach!! That was exactly what I thought.
Communication is obviously essential but the way that Pierre flew that plane was totally confusing David. from the moment Pierre took control to level off the rocking from turbulence he pitched the nose up and continued doing so almost until they hit the ocean. Why he did that makes no sense and there was no reason whatsoever to do so.
Timothy - just what I meant. If Bonnier should had spoken from the first second telling what he was doing nothing would had happen. Lack of communication
SEVERE AT BEST on Bonehead's (Bonin's) part! It was HIS(and unfortunately his wife and every other passengers') time to GO! So SAD, COMPLETELY AVOIDABLE, and unfortunate that they had to go out like that...😢💔
There communications weren’t working cause the plane was stall
“Terrain, Pull up!” Must be one of the scariest things you can ever hear as a pilot!
Yes that robot voice
I watched a few documentaries about plane crashes and it seems this phrase is the last one before the crash. Out of curiosity, was there a case when pilots managed to save the plane after the phrase terrain, pull up? Or is it already too late?
@@revina8868The only case that comes to mind is the plane crash that happened in the Hudson River. Both engines on the plane failed due to a bird strike. The amazing pilot and Co-piliot were able to land the plane perfectly into the Hudson River saving all souls on board. They got both an obstacle warning and a terrain warning before landing in the river. In cases similar to the one in the video though, it is almost always too late due to the low altitude and increasing decending velocity (which typically leads to a nosedive or plane inversion) and the intense G force. The plane during the Hudson River incident wasn't in a nosedive but rather in a level position, just rapidly losing altitude. I hope that gives you some insight to your question!
Quick edit because I just remembered:
An aircraft will typically give you a terrain or obstacle warning way before you reach the perimeter of land, water, or other things that could cause a crash. It has built in systems meant to warn you beforehand. There are different terrain warnings, the master warning itself is "Terrain Terrain, Pull Up! Pull Up!" (Depending on the aircraft model, this warning can change) Where as a more minor alarm will typically say "Terrain Ahead." It's not always a dire situation, the alarm is just inevitable to avoid when you're about to crash because that's just what the system is supposed to do.
Horrible. I'm from Brazil and I have a neighbor who lost his only child on that flight. Unfortunately, psychologically, he has not recovered from the loss. Depressed and suicidal, it's amazing how one bad day can just change a person forever
It's been 10 years to the crash today.. nobody should have died that night.. nobody..
Exactly right.
Yeah...imagine you have to die because of those two stooges in the cockpit, Jesus...
Feels like even I could have done a better job, those two were use- and helpless without the autopilot.
I think that the pilot in command should have been monitoring a lot more then he did
We are all mortals and we’re going to die sooner or later, whether it be by natural causes or accidents caused by us or by others. There is no escape!
@@FFM115 BULLSHIT. When there is an idiot in the cockpit or in a car wheel,then that's just risking the lives of others.
This accident is made much more tragic by the fact it was completely avoidable
avoidable*
@@kirtically5497 oops yep need to check what I type
True, but sadly by its very nature human error isn't always avoidable - it's a fact of life. Occasionally, people mess up. In this case, the mess up cost well over 200 lives.
It was a classic case of a cockpit design flaw.
@@winnethepooh7986 Yes - the Airbus stick system allowed co-pilot Bonin to raise the nose of the plane and put it into an extended stall, without the other two pilots realising he was doing it. It is a crazy design flaw - a human error in the design, which led to human error in the pilots who didn't understand what was happening right in front of their eyes.
Why he did that no one will ever know - most likely his inexperience. But in a Boeing aircraft which has a totally different system of duel control steering wheels instead of sticks, both react simultaneously when one pilot takes an action. Therefore each pilot is fully aware throughout the flight, of their colleague's actions. There's no way this catastrophic sequence of events could have happened on a Boeing.
In the wake of the Air France tragedy of 2009 Airbus stuck to its guns defending their cockpit layout as the best, and superior to Boeing's. But I wonder if in the last 12 years they have made any amendments to the two, independent sticks which played such a critical role in the crash? The veteran pilot iin this video s convinced the Boeing system is better, and when he compares the layout and function of the instruments, it looks like a no brainer - th-cam.com/video/kERSSRJant0/w-d-xo.html
This has always been the scariest and most disturbing crash I've ever heard about.
MH370?
IT DIDN'T DISSAPEAR IT CRASHED IN INDIAN OCEAN
German Wings is really bad too
Germanwings scares me more tbh. The fact that a single man intentionally caused that plane to crash, and the captain couldn't do anything because the cockpit couldn't be opened.
@@scrollingdownonlytofindcom2663 he should have called out the strongest men on the airplane. In extrem fear situations men can develop superhuman strength to save their lifes. Even bullet proof doors can be broken down if four men at once hit it like the worst enemy on the Planet…
Gol 1907 it's the most shocking to me.. imagine you're flying calmly, and suddenly you start falling spinning and crashing in the middle of the Amazon.
My brother is a seaman who missed his plane in Sao Paulo so his agency asked him to fly to Rio and took this Air France flight to Manila. Rest is history. Rip brother
this flight was headed to Paris not Manila tho.
@@elijahsackville-glucksburg perhaps he had a connecting flight in Paris? May he and all of these people rest in peace!
*was 😭😭😭
@@bluemedusa9858 Wouldn't you fly round the other way though?
@@Sheffield5047 Depends on the price... From Rio i'm pretty sure you gotta make a stop in New York or something then again to some Seattle or LA or whatever to get a flight to the Phillipines...
I can’t imagine the terror of being a passenger/crew member on the plane falling at such a fast rate with the g force and having no idea what’s going on.
derpty dumb it's believed that the passengers didn't know it was going on cuz they were probably asleep and it barely notesasable
ryan white I think most people would notice falling 12,000 feet per minute. That rate of descent would be very noticeable.
ryan white. No one's sleeping through that. They were all awake and terrified for 3-4 minutes, knowing they were about to die.
Their ears would have had a lot of pressure, I think.
An airplane falling 12,000 f/m makes such a loud noise that nobody is able to sleep in it. The passengers knew that something was going terribly wrong.
“Damn it, we are going to crash. This can’t be happening.”
So sad 😢
@ciga daze
Bonin: *But what's happening?*
He said “fuck, we’re going to crash”, but I guess this is nicer
Fuck you Pierre dumbass
@@kleanovodust-bin69 Man this was sad, I'm from Rio and a girl from my neighborhood was in that plane. But your comment made me laugh.
do you know what the song is
First Factor: Bonin panicked. He blew the severity of the situation incredibly out of proportion. The airspeed indicator failed, which led him to assume that every indicator in the cockpit had failed. Instead of following procedure for a faulty airspeed reading, he just assumed all indicators were giving him faulty data, when in reality, they weren't. The altimeter was showing increasing altitude, the pitch was indicating they were going up, and the stall warning sounded for a full minute, telling them they had very little lift. Yet they ignored all three of those things.
Second Factor: Bad communication. Robert didn't know Bonin was scared shitless and not in a state of mind to operate the plane. Bonin, in a state of panic, didn't give up control of the aircraft when he was told to. He was paralyzed by fear, and was very obviously not thinking straight. He likely didn't even hear Robert telling him to give him control, because his mind was racing and clogged with adrenaline. He kept pulling up while Robert was pitching down, cancelling out the input. It was only until Bonin said "I've had the stick back the whole time" that the stupidity and horror of the situation dawned on Dubois.
Had they actually recovered from that stall, Bonin would've been fired on the spot. This was an abhorrently bad reaction to the situation, and is completely inexcusable for a pilot with almost 3,000 hours of flight experience.
You made a good case of why Bonin never should have been allowed to be a pilot.
Bonin should have never flown a commercial jet!
You are right. Pilots can fly an airplane but some don't understand the mechanics or the in and out of the airplane. Read what happen on Aeroflot Flight 593 - if the crew had just let go of the control column, the autopilot would have automatically taken action to prevent stalling, thus avoiding the accident. The Russian crew had unfamiliarity with the foreign-made plane - Airbus A310-304.
First factor is clogged pitot tubes, then said factors. Bonin was put in that situation, then he fucked up.
The easiest thing one can do is talk and comment after the accident has happened and knowing how it happened. When your actually in that moment, in the cockpit, with all those alarms and warnings going off, its a whole different story. Lots of "expert pilots' criticizing..
My college teacher died with his wife and their toddler in this accident. It was unbelievable.
DAMN..... SO SORRY..... I know as humans we get things wrong & have our faults, but It really sucks when something like this happens.... This crash was so 100% avoidable and should not have happened.... That's why new pilots need more training, and all flights should have a 4 man cockpit crew at minimum.
Question need to be asked why the chef captain went to sleep amids the violent adverse storm???
@@suatustel746 Because he needed rest and he didn't even get it anyways because those two got it wrong immediately after he left
As long as man kind invent a device or machines accidents naturally occurs...
@@tarzlegacy9446 aight gonna fit 4 dudes in a cessna 172 cockpit
Pierre...my dude. You killed everybody.
Nope, the other FO also to blame.
@@landaxe2 you meant the captain
@@afz1194 Nah i mean the FO while the captain was out of the cockpit
@@landaxe2 the other FO is very little to blame other than the fact that he did not communicate properly. Pierre was an idiot, even the armchair pilots know that when a plane starts to stall you need to push the nose down. How such an idiot that keeps the nose up while the airplane screams STALL STALL became a pilot is beyond me.
@@Gurubashy The entire CVR is not played in this simulation. Actually Pierre Bonin wanted to climb ABOVE the cloud system right from the start. He was very nervous when he saw they were approaching a storm and he felt that they could climb above the storm. He asked Dubois for permission to climb which Dubois denied. He was not clever enough to understand that the storm extended to 50000 feet (way beyond the capacity of the A330). So subconsciously Bonin always wanted to climb. So, the moment the autopilot cut off, he pulled the stick back.
The other thing is Bonin actually tried the nose down, but it did'nt work. Because: When he had the stick back, the stall alarm kept blaring but he ignored it and the angle of attack increased to 40 degrees. The stall warning in A330 sounded only if the angle of attack was within reasonable range (less than 35 degrees). So at 40 degrees, the stall alarm cut out because the computer felt that 40 degrees was impossible and hence rubbish data. But since the plane was dropping like a stone, he put the nose down. Now when the angle of attack reduced to less than 35 degrees, the stall alarm kicked in again. So he thought that by pushing the nose down, he was stalling the plane. Hence he pulled back on the stick again and the angle of attack increased once again to more than 35 degrees and the stall alarm stopped again. He should have kept the nose down inspite of the stall alarm and soon the alarm would have cut out, this time because he would have recovered from the stall completely. Sigh!!
Feel bad for FO David, he did everything he can but FO Pierre screwed everything up
Exactly..........i have seen other re-constructions of this crash, and they all come to the conclusion that the F/O Pierre Bonin caused the crash due to his staggering incompetence!
It’s one thing to have to deal with stupid people, but it’s quite another to lose your life bc of their stupidity. It’s just not right.
worst part is they all realize seconds before the impact
One knucklehead can bring out the worst in otherwise good careful people. You can work for years and then one day one of these a-holes turns up. They’ll teach you your own weaknesses.
cherryclan1 Don’t cover for them. This guy would have been setting of alarm bells before this but everyone would have covered for him. Remember the suicidal Germaair pilot with a history of severe mental illness? Do gooders kept encouraging him to feel good about themselves but he deliberately crashed an A320.
A boy from my old school was on this flight, what a horrible way to go, I cant imagine the fear that the passengers must've shared in their final moments. RIP.
Those 3 minutes would have been like 3 hours.
Yeah of course he was.
A lot of these crashes apparently involve pilots not knowing what to do when the auto pilot disconnects.
In my opinion, way too many pilots and airlines are too dependent on the AP. I'm not saying we should fly manual, but still
ikr? Incompetent idiots, even I could do a better job
That's why they invented the autopilot
@@drinkinglotsofsoda no it isn't
Because it was an Airbus, and they were relying too much on automation. You can't computerize an airliner.
pierre: we are descending
*continuous to climb*
When you're panicking and losing altitude your first reaction would be to pull up. You think an experienced pilot would know the difference tho. Crazy.
@@scottiemccarthy896 One of the first things I was taught was that as soon as that stall warning indicator lights up, the first reaction should be to pitch down and add thrust. I think that's something they teach in lesson 1. This was just unbelievable.
@@sparrowtail561 seems like pilot suicide to me
He descended the airplane by stalling it....I'm wondering what kind of pilot is this??
I am shocked that a pilot couldn’t fly that plane, or even crashed it sooner than he did
This is even more frightening than any horror movie. My heart goes out to the poor people on that plane, and the terror they went through... :(
Plane wasn't flying eratically. Chances are the passengers had no idea anything was wrong at all.
@ariannasv22 I flew with my family to New York that night. Since America Airlines gate was full we ended up seating on the Air France gate and waiting to board. I saw those people before the bordering that flight. Into this day every time I watch video related to Fight 447 give me nightmares
drollette08 why not like you knew then or saw them die lol get reeeeekt
drollette08 yeeeeeeeet
drollette08 oh yeah yeah
I've heard it called "the goofy loop" where you get stressed, try to stop the stressor, fail, start panicking, do the same thing to try to stop it, fail again, and so on. In this case, it seems to have doomed hundreds of people.
I’ve looked at a lot of information about this flight, including recreations of the pilots’ inputs after the autopilot disconnected. It’s not quite as simple as Bonin just pulling the stick directly back the whole time - initially he makes nose up inputs, but he also yanks the stick around erratically in wildly different directions, seemingly in an attempt to level the wings. It’s clear that he was panicking and believed the computer was moderating his inputs when it wasn’t. Regardless, his failure to recognize the stall condition is both unacceptable and completely unexplainable.
Adding to the confusion was that the stall warning stopped when he pulled back on the stick and further reduced speed. The computer interpreted the input data as invalid, only to treat the data as valid again when the aircraft would regain speed as he pointed the nose downward. So when Bonin would do the right thing the stall warning would sound, only to stop when he would again point the nose upward.
@@tinnedtuna8242 That was true only after Bonin had put the plane into a deep stall with the nose of the plane pointed almost straight up, something no qualified pilot would ever do. Besides, there is no evidence whatsoever that the stall warning influenced his actions. He ignored all of the stall alarms that sounded while the computer still understood what was happening so there’s no reason to believe he suddenly started paying attention later on.
Agree. What I also find unacceptable (bordering on criminal) is Robert with more flying time under his belt, should have recognised Pierre was out of his depth and struggling to cope. The stall warning alone (as others pointed out) should have immediately told Robert they needed to drop the nose. As the more experienced pilot, he should have taken control of the aircraft way earlier.
It’s not just Bonin. Both the pilot and first officer had no reaction at all to the stall warning!
@@catherineolivia1 yup he should took over the control but I think he didn't cus the captain left the plane in charge to Bonin instead which is quite strange considering he had less experience than Robert.
The scariest thing is no one knew they were descending for a long time because of the darkness imagine finding out minutes before hitting the sea the horror.
At the speed they were descending, the passengers had to have known because of the G-forces.
The passengers must have been screaming for their lives
What are those PFDs for.... Dumb
I read that once the plane reached terminal velocity the occupants wouldn't feel the descent. It was a night flight and many would have been asleep. I hope they had no idea what was happening and felt nothing on impact but died quickly and painlessly.
@@LeeBee-hs6mj you are right! But stalling aircraft cause wings to vibrate rapidly...
It was amazing that they were able to eventually find the black boxes amidst all that ocean. First officer Pierre had no business flying the plane.
He had nearly 3,000 flight hours at that point.
@@friedpickles342 obviously for nothing since he crashed an airliner when the pitot tubes froze over
For real tho feel free to call me an evil monster bish for saying this but I hope Pierre is posthumously regretting his actions constantly
@@friedpickles342 he had no business being a pilot. Period
@@baconatoromg6062 I know right! I was just a simple Avionics nerd in the USAF and even I would've known that ; goddamm!
Plane: "STALL STALL *RING*RING*RING* STALL STALL"
F/O Pierre: "hehe sidestick go woosh"
LOL 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Pierre: "If I pull on the sticky the airplaney goes up!"
-It's 6000 miles away from here.
-No big deal. I'll walk.
I absolutely hate flying at night, I always get the window seat because I like knowing what’s going around me at all times but when I can’t see anything out of that tiny window... my anxiety goes through the roof 😓 imagine the fear these passengers felt knowing they were in their last seconds.
Flying should just be banned tbh, boat travel is much less fucked up.
HMS Titanic has entered the chat.
I just take a Rivotril and hope for the best.
The.#1 T that’s ridiculous, more people die from car accidents each year than air crashes. Should we also ban cars? And alcohol kills people, should we ban that? And paracetamol? And knives? And anything else that carries a risk
@@MA-se1iv you only die from car crashes if you're stupid, or can't drive or have an unsafe car. Car crashes are completely up to you. Whilst on a plane anything could go wrong.
My heart dropped when i saw the water.
I cant help but feel mad at pierre.
Same😔
@Dan Sincox nose might have only been up a lil but they hit the ocean pretty much with a flat belly against the ocean.
@Dan Sincox I will have to look up West Carribean 708. Watching Air Diasters on AF447 and them determing how the plane crashed into the ocean just blew my mind.
@Dan Sincox Thank you
First officer Pierre is responsible to this disaster. The crew, after having realised that they are going to enter a thunderstorm cloud, and knowing that it wouldn't be safe by passing through the clouds, they would have best, immediately have started increasing their altitude to about 37000-38000 ft, by requesting the ATC for giving the clearance. This accident would have then prevented. Thank you TFC for creating such a nice and realistic video, and letting us know about this disaster. Condolences to everyone those who lost their loved ones in this accident.
I thought the video said they were out of ATC range and in dead air space? I do agree with you though. This accident could have been avoided if it hadn't been for the right seat FO.
RIP Christiane my friend. You are missed 🥲❤️
The most avoidable plane crash in history.
Sucks!
9/11?
*2nd
If that Germanwings pilot stopped flying he would have never locked the pilot out of the cockpit and deliberately crashed the plane...
- Saudia flight 163
- LaMia flight 2933
Vladivostok Air Flight 352 is also from that row
They said car crashes are more common than plane crashes, but they didnt say the latter is more horrifying.
My dad was a traffic cop and saw a ladies head sanded down to nothing by tarmac when her SUV flipped and the roof ripped off, car accidents can be just as horrific
Well that is pretty intuitively conclusive, isn't it?
@James W i think most car crashes result to a quick kill while planes will give you more time to anguish about your inevitable death. But yeah sometimes car crashes are also brutal
Richard Graydon but 40,000 feet in the air into the Atlantic is nightmarish
They only say that cause of numbers there is probably a billion. Or more cars on the road at one time you put a billion planes in the sky at once see how many crashes there are
I always come back to this crash. For me one of the most haunting and inexplicable ones. Bonin just had to let go of the pressure he was adding to the stick in order to put the nose down. That is a simple statement you say right now to yourself, but then we'll never really know what was going on in his head and what happened that night. Such a preventable disaster.
He probably did it on purpose to commit suicide but they don’t want people to know that / or the airline doesn’t want people to know that.
@@Zain-iv9yv Bonin was literally scared. He panicked and in his last words you can still sense that he was confused. So, therefore it's not about suicide or whatever you're concluding
I'm in film & television but I've never seen better maximum graphic vids as these by TheFlightChannel. And I have to mention - THANK YOU for imaging and assigning the light & sound of lighting/thunder. To this day, our movie industry STILL INCORRECTLY has the clap of thunder simultaneously accompany the image of lightning!
Great vids.
i've never had so much anxiety watching a youtube video before
Same
Same here
why ??
Same
Chaos in the cockpit is worse. They reenact the scene from the transcript and it's like 4 and a half minutes of watching 3 people not realise the plane has stalled.
Pilot David : "I cant understand, Ive been pushing down on the stick the whole time and we're still losing speed!"
Pilot Piere : "I dont understand either, Ive been pulling up on the stick the whole time and we're still losing altitude!"
Captain : "Le Wtf"
great summary
Kids
Le funny shit. 😂
This is why the Airbus design where you don't get the same input on both controls is baffling. Airbus makes great aircraft, but the fact both flight sticks are not connected...Captain Sully reviewed this case and is baffled by this design...and he landed the fucking airbus on a river.
Also, the importance of yolks not side sticks
While it's not ideal, losing the air speed indicator like this really wasn't that big of a deal. This is like travelling down a highway at 80mph, and then your speedometer goes out, and instead of just, yknow, driving the car to the next exit (where, in this case, the speedometer would start working again) you veer hard to the right and crash into the barrier. It just makes no sense whatsoever.
I’m from Brazil and every time I see any documentary about this crash makes me feel so emotional 😔
“Okay, okay. I am descending.” **continues to pull up** 🤦
Coz he wanted to descend like an elevator i guess straight down. I blame nepotism for this accident , maybe his uncle put a word for him he clearly did not know what he was doing.
At least he was descending. Not in the way he expected though.
@@moxide that was my guess when I first saw the video. Not even 3,000 hours and he’s flying transoceanic flights?
And this is why you never leave 2x First Officers flying a plane without a Captain controlling them.
The Captain figured out what they were doing wrong so quickly, yet the First Officers were still confused...
Tomas T I’m not a first officer and even I realised their lack of communication, panic and Pierre holding on to the stick was the reason.
@@Nazey09 Pierre seemed like a dumb ass. You'd think after having thousands of hours of flight time he'd have figured out what was going wrong eventually
Pierre was pulling on the stick the whole time, the other officers did not know and once they figured it out. It was too late.
Two first officers flying a plane at night whilst a captain rests is a regular part of long distance flights. Probably every other overnight transatlantic flight had a similar system in place that night.
Problems were the first officers didn't communicate and Pierre, for whatever reason, panicked and flew the plane into a stall . They realised what was wrong but only when the plane was at 2000 feet, falling at 15000 feet per minute. It was too late
Exactly
I remember this really well. When the black box recordings were released and we all heard why this plane crashed, I actually vowed to never fly with Air France. Extreme I know, but the fact that so many people had to die for no other reason than the failure of two people to merely TALK to each other was just stunning to me.
I rarely blame the pilots because being in the situation is always a hundred times more difficult than sitting comfortably at home in your chair. But the incompetence of the FO in the right seat is extreme, not only is he doing things that makes no sense, he also continues to fly the airplane after giving control to the FO in the left seat. What the actual fuck.........
The last time I checked, a “stall” alert usually means YOU’VE FKING STALLED! Who gave this guy his pilot licence..
@Weston Shortnacy right
They didn't know if warning was true or not, because speed reading was clearly misbehaving. However, pilot in the left seat had a proper judgement in this situation. Even if speed reading isn't correct, you still have functioning attitude level and altitude indicator. Combination of both of these were clearly indicating a stall. The moron in the right seat simply got overwhelmed. He didn't mean harm, but he was clearly not cut out for the job. Simply incompetence.
Flying in pitch darkness, in clouds, over the ocean - there is nothing for your eyes to catch outside. It's purely flying using instrumentation. And if one of those important instruments is out it really takes some clear and level-headed thinking to get a hold of a situation.

Legends say that till date, Pierre Bonin is still pulling the stick up.
He’s under the sea strapped in his chair pulling on that stick
Pierre Bonin would be able to stall a Xcub from cubcrafter in a 50kts headwind

did they recover any corpses
@@randomrazr yes
I love how Bonin secretly went back to pulling on the flight stick at the very end, when nobody was looking, just in case anyone managed to save the stall. What a legend.

I am so, so sorry for the terror these poor passengers and crew felt. It's beyond horror. I just took a trans-atlantic flight. There was just a bit of turbulence and I was almost freaking out so I cannot imagine what these people went through. My heart goes out to them and to all their loved ones~+
From what I read most passengers had no idea they were going down. The pilots didn't understand. The voice recorders only captured a brief instant of noise coming from the cabin before they belly flopped into the Atlantic.
Awesome. I. Love It
I love this
kenworthNH thay had no idea that the plane is Falling but 100% they were aware that something is wrong the Plane nobody was sleep due to the massive sound climb fast decends fast left turn right turn during the stall the flight attendent called the pilot many times to ask what is going on and nobody answered :/ ! All of them died at the impact except the pilots who has suffered during the impact
Hi Matt, you're right. I guess there are different levels of horror. For me personally, a plane crash is a horrible way to go because of the fear you feel going down.
What you described about going to war is something I can't even touch. My uncle was in Vietnam and he rarely talks about it. One story he has told to the family is that he saw his friend die right in front of him because of a land mine. He has truly seen horror. And that's just one story he has told, I can't imagine what else he experienced over there.
I am truly sorry for bringing up bad memories for you. I will try to be more careful with my words going forward.
This crash just shows how important communication in the cockpit is.
The second the FO David said "we are going to crash".. Such a terrific and horrific moment crashing into an ocean that too at middle of the night.. Scariest crash ever in ocean.. I can't even imagine what will be the mindset of the captain and FOs when they understood they are gonna die in seconds crashing on the ocean floor.. Feeling pity on the souls who lost their lives without even knowing anything before they woke up from their sleep.. RIP souls
Bonin: "I've had the stick back the whole time!"
Other pilots: "facepalm"

sorry to hear
Finding a limbless torso damn holy shit that's fucked up. Just shows how everyone's bodies must have gotten fucked up on impact.
Really feel sad to hear abt it. May God give patience to the family.
Reallyyyyy??
@La Serpenta Canta what happened tot he legs and arms
The Smithsonian Channel has an excellent Air Disasters episode on this crash; the two FO's weren't even close to being equally responsible. The flying FO (Pierre) totally panicked from the outset, and successively made every wrong move imaginable in reacting to what was happening. The other FO eventually tried to take control and correct matters, but Pierre's insistence on pulling the stick back continuously thwarted the other's efforts. The side-stick design didn't help matters, as each of the two pilots couldn't see what the other was doing with the stick, as would have been the case with Boeing-style yokes ( a problem noted in the accident report and subsequently addressed by EADS).
He could simply have taken priority on the joystick.
When I was younger and getting into an aviation I could never comprehend the idea of the Airbus side-stick design. A computer keyboard taking the place of a steering yoke made me realise that these airlines really just want computers flying their planes.
@@tucker3601 the 777 and other modern Boeing aircrafts are not any different …..there may be a yoke but it still is a computer that flies the aircraft through the control, joystick or yoke
@@Bruno-tm3xo Yes, but as the show made clear, each pilot can see what the other is doing with his yoke; not so with the side stick.
@@Bruno-tm3xohe did but the other pilot took if off him again.

I think F/O Pierre should have taken that first break. He really messed up. Kind of wonder why he's even in that cockpit.
He didn’t slept night before
Right before this video, I watched the 60 Minutes Australia episode about Air France 447. Together they tell many more details about what happened. Definitely worth watching both. Love you, Flight Channel!
Unbelievable everything that was happening with the two officers. My anxiety level definetly rose watching. Very tragic for the people on board and condolensces to the families.
These videos really break my heart, it’s so sad and scary how every time we board planes we trust completely strangers with our lives.
It’s very scary when you don’t have control. May they all rest in ✌🏽.
That is why you need Jesus
@Jabou baa Yet still flying is safer than driving in a car, as a driver by yourself or as a passenger. So miss me with this bullshit.
Fabio Haller I dated a pilot once. A binge drinker who played with dolls. No lie. They're all fucked in the head.
Safer than a car in terms of the probability of being involved in a crash? Sure, but I'm very certain the survival rate of car crashes is much higher than plane crashes.
The "safer than driving a car" b.s. is just that. B.s. I've never seen 200-400 people killed in a car crash. Garbage statistics

So , Pierre killed everyone...by holding the stall and not paying attention to the HSI, AOA and VSI...I'm not even a pilot, I'm an avionics tech, but this baffles me.
Grim Engineer
Panic, loss of concentration, PROTOCOL, there should be a basic check list in a situation like this right so each officer is on the SAME page, they were NOT communicating with each other effectively and confirming each others actions as correct. Why NOT!??!?
I have nothing to do with aviation and can see the fundamental logic in that! That boy had no business being at the controls, especially for failing to give control over to the other officer when commanded to. Incredible incompetence!
While ultimately it was F/O Pierre's actions that brought down the plane it was a chain reaction of events that occured. Equipment Failure was first- pitot tubes failed, shutting down airspeed reading. and disengaging auto pilot. While I very much enjoyed this clip of the final 10m of the flight provides incomplete picture of the investigation theres some good docos on Flight 447 on youtube that tell the whole picture.
Baffles me too. All they had to do when the autopilot disengaged was keep flying level and preferably straight too but they failed to follow basic rules of airmanship
He did it because the pitot tubes were telling him they were going too fast. So he did it to try and lose speed. However, he should have realised that the tubes were wrong and that his colleague was capable of handflying for a few minutes until the autopilot came back. And when he wanted to do something he should have said he was going to do something. Not just done it and not told his colleague. And when his colleague said he had control he should have let go of everything. I mean really they should have gone around the storm in the first place, not through it. And then the captain should have taken control when he came in
"Pierre have you ever flown a plane before?"
"No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night"
“I have not flown any actual airplanes but I have several pilot style hats that I like to wear.”
Lol

It's dark humor and as sad as that accident was, your comment made me smile.
"No, I never had lessons."
May the passengers and crew of Air France flight 447 RIP.
“We’ve lost control of the plane!”

this is the stupidest most avoidable crash of all time its crazy, this makes me terrified of going on flights
Right? Why they would not assess what both their hands are doing is beyond me! It's like constantly riding the brakes and wondering what that weird smell is...
No worries, Pierres dead too. So he won’t be on your next flight.
I Booked flight with KLM, not realising it was an Air France flight! I was very nervous, and even thought should I board this flight? Fortunately the flight was uneventful, but I was very nervous
@@matthewsmith2787 what do you even mean we have amazing pilots. The takeoff and landings are always gentle and nice. They always try and avoid turbulences to the utmost. The only thing you should be afraid of is the food
@@badbitch898 So much for that with the Air France 447 pilots. I agree, the take off was smooth and landing also
They say : " don't be afraid of flying because all pilots are extremely well trained professionals operating high end flying machine with thousands technological things on board that will prevent the crash. So here we have a well trained pilots and high end flying machine. The human factor is always be there.
Don't sleep when u in da air
Andre 1999 Air France were notorious for their shit training but I’m not sure about present day. What Pierre Bonin did was unacceptable and he caused that crash (Ironic because he had more hours than David) but I kind of understand his thinking. I think he thought he was over speeding so he tried reducing speed by pitching up which was terribly wrong (but I mean 3-4 minutes of that? Come on man). Anyway, the bottom line is they should not have flown into that storm cloud in the first place. Pilots take loads of extra fuel if there’s a possibility of storms on the flight path. The fact they were in that thing was unbelievable in itself. I would not worry about flying, it is an incredibly safe form of transport and 99% of pilots are really well trained. There were so many problems with this flight, it’s fucking incredible. The aviation world learned a lot from this crash.
Andre 1999 yeah and how do average pilots (including the morons in the video) compare to the average car driver of? At the end of the day, numbers don’t lie: if you care about whether you live or die, you’d be foolish to think cars are safer

@@NightRider0101 probably by hand
How the hell did that flight officer on the right even graduate flight school. “I’ve had my hand back on the stick the whole time”. And he didn’t understand why they were Stalling. What kind of special asshole .... I can’t. Totally speechless.
Agree. It makes me so angry. His level of total cluelessness is FRIGHTENING. He didnt even know what the ozone was ffs!
But I still feel bad for him. He sounded so afraid in the end. PLUS his wife was on board the same plane
i know right how can you be so stupid to not know that to exit a stall you must dip the nose to regain lift, it baffling that a pilot could be so naive....
You hardly learn jackshit in flight school... flying is learnt by work experience in small aircraft then slowly moving up in weights so by the time you get into the jets your base in sound...but unfortunately due to greedy ceos , bankers ,crew schedulers ,marketing idiots ,that work within airlines that have no substance to safety want there pound off flesh off the pie they roster crews with only 1 captain to save a pissants dick off money...pilots over the last 20 yrs or more have been destroyed in salary’s and human shitbag resources to hire only lowtime or run cheap ass cadetship programs so as to trap and pay at the lowest possible rate. It’s def not worth being a pilot today compared to 20-30 yrs ago.
@@BamOn742 Alright, even if one doesn't learn much in flight school, there's at least a flight simulator for one to install to bloody practice. This was so basic that it boils my blood.
One of the most egregious pilot error examples in recent memory
Pierre Bonin
There’s a documentary called Chaos In The Cockpit, Flight 447 that was made here in the UK not long after the FDR and CVR had been recovered and examined. It’s probably the best example of how a thorough investigation should be documented. If you haven’t seen it, it’s well worth a watch. The transcript is voiced by actors with the noises of alarms etc - basically letting us hear what the crew heard that night. The accompanying score is very powerful too - it’s there in the background and adds a sense of dread that you’re barely aware of to start. It’s the best documentary I’ve ever seen on an air crash and unlike many of today’s shows, it doesn’t use cheap reenactment etc. It’s careful to get unbiased opinion and is very respectful to the families of those who died.
That David guy in it is basically the David Attenborough of aviation and he’s brilliant. I was amazed at how much thundery conditions there were that night when Michael showed us the forecast
As a pilot myself this accident scares me to the core. It's insane to me that some pilots seem to forget to fly the airplane; there are procedures in place in case of airspeed indi loss to ensure that the pilots, first and foremost, keep the plane flying. Its different for every aircraft but essentially grinds down to applying enough thrust and maintaining level flight. You have to trust your basic instruments, even if you don't trust the computers and their readouts. Trust your instruments, fly the airplane, maintain spatial awareness. I haven't read the official reports but it looks to me like a combination of too much reliance on technology, not trusting their instruments (I think the FO had spacial disorientation, it's hard to explain his actions otherwise), and forgetting to fly the plane. I'm not assigning blame, I'm just stating what it looks like to me as a fellow driver (kind of a name we pilots call ourselves sometimes, comes from asking other pilots what they're driving, at least that's my experience. Some of the jerk senior guys will ask newer pilots hoping they reply with a description of their car. Real funny guys😒). Blessings to those involved and their families.
I can't understand eather why the FO wasn't looking on the levels. I mean, he clearly could see that he was in a rapid climb, and that he pulled the stick back before that. He crearly wasn't ready for the cockpit, even after 2500 flight hours. I don't want to hate on airbus, but in a Boeing the Captian would have seen clearly what the FO did wrong and could have corrected him after a few seconds, and not a few seconds before hitting the water.
flo richi You're right about that my friend. 😊
Are these conversations by the pilots retrieved from the black box?
shin mcabee Yes I believe so
Mike Slattebo oficial reports says the Young pilot didnt realize the aricraft was falling. I mean dont you feel that in your body ? When i fly as a passanger i clearly feel when the planes goes down. How he coulndt realize when the Craft step into loss? I ask you as u are a pilot
I’ve changed my mind, I’m driving to California next month instead.

My heart beats so fast while watching this.. I couldn’t imagine the fear they had being inside this plane. Terrible.
Ani Avd wish they have parachute
Quentin Davis good thing they would have all died on Impact, making this whole situation easier for them to deal with
I cant watch these anymore I have high blood pressure and watching these does not help. I remember this story from when it happened and was under the impression that the thunderstorm knocked the plane out of the sky but indirrctly I suppose it was from the ice crystals in the pitot tubes.
MH17 was shot down but some of the passengers were still alive after the missile hit the plane. Imagine the fear they had during those times.
Yes the fear of knowing you’re going down is bad but plane crashes are usually very quick and painless deaths. You won’t feel a thing on impact.
that moment when the surface of the ocean suddenly shows itself in the middle of the darkness is so horrifying
Pierre ,,,,,,The kind of guy that pulls out onto the Interstate at 35mph and can't figure out why everyone is passing him
When a pilot asks for control, the other pilot is supposed to take their hands off the controls and say something like "you have control". It seems the junior pilot never took his hands from the controls as per training. Unbelievable. As a lay person, I am staggered by this failure. Just astonishing to have stalled the aircraft for that long.
One factor that I read that contributed to the crash was that the training was that the aircraft in 'normal mode' would not allow a stall, that is, the pilot can input a nose up attitude at maximum but the aircraft will only initiate max climb and not stall. My understanding is that the aircraft flight computers were in 'alternate mode' due to the failure of the pitot tubes, hence the aircraft did not have its usual stall protections and could be commanded into a nose up attitude that resulted in a stall. The junior pilot was of the belief that the aircraft would not put itself into a stall regardless of his input.
This smells like pilot suicide to me. One of the first things you learn as a pilot is how to get out of a stall situation, you pitch the nose down to add thrust
@@victoranthony9037 Did you read my comment? The pilot surely knew how to avoid a stall but he was mislead by his understanding of the alternate vs normal mode situation the flight computers were in
Indeed. He was stuck with that idea that the Airbus could not stall and forgot about alternate mode.
I doubt it. The stall warning sounded several times and then for a full minute continuously. You have to be dense AF to not at least consider that you may in fact be stalling, no matter what protections the plane has. Especially if you've been pulling back on the stick for several minutes straight.
@@Pratik4311 I agree, but the FO probably thought or assumed that because he had erroneous speed readings, that the stall stall warning was false too. He probably didn't trust the instruments anymore. He might've been thinking the stall stall warning was because his air speed was too low because the pitot tube froze up.
The next time I fly, my first question upon entering the cabin will be; "Are any of the flight crew named Pierre?"
😂😆😆😆
Don't fly with a French airline then

Airplane: STALL STALL DINGGGG DINGG STALL STALL
Two “pilots”: hmmm what is happening?
Pierre Bonin: I don't know what's happening. I mean, I've had the nose up the whole time, but I don't know why we're stalling.
Very sad "::: he was the first officer of the plane and don't know basics about the plane ,,,,
@@southerngirl1490 The only explanation I could come up with: He panicked and simply "forgot" he was holding the joystick. Or he confused up and down and thought joystick down means nose down, and that is why he thought he had lost control over the plane because it didn't happen. And I am surprised that the plane's controls let the inputs of the pilots cancel each other out whithout any warning. Maybe the other two would have spotted this error a lot earlier then.
“DINGGGG DINGG” 😂
@@Elite7555 pierre messed up, I agree.
However, I agree with you. The plane should have given a warning that the two officers opposite joystick inputs were cancelling each other out. That way, the other officer would have known pierre was doing the wrong thing.
I hope Airbus has that feature now. That feature and better communication between pilots.
The pilot negligence is horrifying ! Why in hell would you still be pulling up on the stick when SOMEONE ELSE says "I have control" ?!?!?! Also, why did they not have a stewardess get the captain the moment something went wrong ? It's downright depressing to know that this whole thing could have easily been avoided. I honestly can't imagine the absolute terror everyone on board must have felt. Everyone should have lived; that thought is the most upsetting.
What was the captain doing and how could he not felt the turbulence of the plane for so long? ALL THREE ARE IDIOTS!
S W ToDi he was on break idiot. He probably slept.
@LadyDetective07, Maybe the fear, panic and confusion blocked their minds. I know they train for emergency situations on flight simulators, but when you know it's not for real, maybe you stay calm.
LadyDetective07 they’re called “flight attendants” now, they get upset if ya call em stewardesses.
It didn't matter as the Captain decided to sit in the jump seat and watch
I remember the crash I also remember waiting in New York 9 hrs due to engine problems ..I also remember I was into plane in South Africa and we have thunder and bad weather I prayed and prayed thank God he heard my prayers and I'm alive ...rest in peace my heart goes to the ones not so lucky sad
While watching this it occurred to me that a family member of someone that perished in this incident could be watching this seeking an explanation and some kind of peace. Prayers for those lost and impacted in this tragedy.
why didnt the other pilot go wake up the the smart captain that was sleeping while the other stooge was playin gta flight sim
Exactly what i thought.
@colten libbett @@nabilkadir9648 The only thing I can think of is that there were only four or five minutes from the time they first realized they had an out-of-the-ordinary situation on their hands until the plane crashed. Also Marc what's-his-face had taken a sleeping pill. He might've been "there" on the flight deck; but his mind wasn't clear.
The accident report said they did wake the Captain he but did not see an answer to the problem when he got to the flight deck. The FO basically stalled the aircraft at 30,000 ft.
gta flight sim 💀 💀 💀 He did wake him up tho but it was too late cause the dumbass nigga on the right didn't know how to fly a plane and the plane was dropping at a shit ton of speed.
Tyger Voods and even if he woke up we are humans I believe I took him some minutes to understand what was going on
"The two first officers were criticized for displaying poor crew resource management".
You could have just said they were idiots.
We can’t be offending people Mark. You know that. 😂 JK. Lol. I agree with you entirely where Pierre Bonin is concerned.
Don't think it would have happened if the Captain had left David Robert the pilot in charge. He didn't realize Bonin was keeping the plane in a nose up attitude.
@@lindaross4331 Honestly, there was plenty of blame to go around, but you are right. That was a very questionable decision by the captain to put the least experienced crew member in charge, but maybe he did that in the hopes Bonin would gain some more experience, and under the assumption he and Roberts would communicate better in case of an emergency.
@@dylanhutchins7110 and didnt expect that was their last journey..
I don't see what David could have done different. He was quick and clear to Pierre in saying what to do to get out the stall, and when Pierre kept being his dumb self, David tried to take control. Looks like it's a silly design with those side sticks where #1-The other pilots can't see what position the controlling pilot has the stick in, and #2-The inputs can cancel each other out. From watching these clips it looks like Airbus always have these quirky control issues.
that crash happened two weeks before my first ever flight and it just made my fear of flying worse. That fear never really went away. I'm an awful flier and yet those videos are my favourite thing to watch on yt.
I saw from the cbs news that mentioned the timing of when the plane enters the storm which was at 11:10.05 and started to have the problems, and the captain went back to the cockpit at 11:11.40. So this happened in the span of (around) 1min and 30sec, which was quite a short time. Scary
"We've tried everything"... except for, you know, letting go of the damn control stick, Bonin.
