Pilots? Maybe. Experienced Pilots? Not so much. Hours does NOT make one a good pilot. Military pilots get much more stringent training than civilians. FACT!

Laughs in EASA ATPL

I may have had a rocky start to my pilot training many years ago, but I stuck with it, and worked as an A&P at a very large "company" to bankroll my instrument, time building, and commercial pilot activities. I don't care if I make it or not; I'm going to finish what I started, and figure out who needs a person with a commercial pilot rating, and an A&P mechanic with an avionics specialization.

Not to get into politics but things will be changes dramatically for the good. Just be patient. Of course during high inflation and incompetence at Boeing. There is gonna be a freeze.

There is no such thing as a pilot shortage, just a shortage of airlines willing to put the time energy and money into cadet programs and training low timers to airline standards as they used to in the past

There has never been a pilot shortage, only a shortage of highly experienced pilots who want to work cheaply.

47 year pilot here, 41 with the airlines, forced into retirement this July because of one too many birthdays. For 47 years I’ve heard about the “pilot shortage.” Haven’t seen it yet, nor do I expect to see it for the next 47 years. Granted, some times are better than others, and yes there may be a “shortage” for crappy jobs, but the better paid majors will never have a problem.

The only shortage there ever was, experienced ATP rated pilots that would work cheap.

This video is another proof of one that is most convenient to blame everything on dead man. Despite pilot ignorance is primal factor of this tragedy second one and equal is reaction of ground control. So you have no engines , no hidraulic power plane barely controlable, you see "surprise,surprise" it does not have extended landing gears...just send it go around like, WTF??? Just to return after miracoulously managing to start engine and extendend front landing gear which caused bouncing which caused crash and death of few people instead of belly landing first atempt.

I want to become a pilot but im scared the shortage will be over and I wont be able to find a job. Should I still pursue?

Major Airlines just have to bring back the degree requirement, that way those that dont have one can take up the regional seats. Thats how its always been

What about cargo pilots?

This is such a joke, industry is cyclical just like everything else. I’m a professional healthcare worker and the same has been said since the 70s. I’m still pursuing my ratings and yes there will be pilot jobs. Guys like this are fear mongers. Just like Leonard Nimoy in the 70s and 80s on television PSAs saying the world would be in an ice age by 2020🤡🙄🤦🤣

I slightly disagree because the military is in the minority at the airlines... civilian pilots make up most of the ranks at the majors... keep in mind that the VA (after Vietnam) actually did something. And now it is worthless.... but that was what fueled and supplied the airlines after the deregulation act of 1978 was signed. I fit right in on those dates... I was in the Navy 1970-76 and got my Private license in 1974.... building time and experience until I was hired at a small commuter outfit in Ft Collins, CO... and then hired by Pioneer Airlines at the old Stapleton Airport... before getting hired at Continental Airlines in 1983. The rest is history as Continental merged with our arch nemesis United in 2012.

I’ve been a south bend local my entire life. I was very much living in south bend in 2013 (just starting my freshmen year at Notre Dame!). I’ve also been an aviation enthusiast… yet somehow I have no memory of ever hearing anything about this plane crash. In a city this size, I find that so hard to believe! I guess I was pretty distracted just beginning college, but still…

Not hidden dangers, ignored dangers and warnings.

If I wasn't scared of heights I'd definitely go to pilot school. But looking out that window no matter how nice it is also makes me sweat.

This "shortage" was caused by the government requiring a crazy number of flight hours to operate a commercial airliner. It was artificially induced.

Many of my friends and business associates who used to fly many times each year, no longer do so. The fun, exciting and pleasure of being an Airline passenger has disappeared! The Airlines used to bend over backwards to make every trip for every passenger feel like a "Special Experience". No more. Seats are smaller. No food. Even a tiny snack is costly, and folks are just fed up! So, now they only take a flight when there's no other way. Sadly, the industry did this to themselves! Bring back "that Special Feeling"! Make the passenger actual look forward to the experience again! And the Air Travel industry will begin to recover. Remember; Business Travelers can write off the entire cost of the trip! Start THINKING 🤔

Kay is a great pilot I loved her videos!

Such a tragic loss of life Because these 2 inexperienced pilots did not know their plane. No reason not to read manuals and to do checklists.

Airlines are incompetent😂😂😂

Yes, it is over. The regionals are not short on captains anymore either, they are not forcing captain upgrades.

Frankly if you are early on in your training (like myself) then I wouldn't pay any mind to this. This industry is so volatile it'll probably go through another 8 hiring waves and 12 furlough seasons by the time you got your 1500

👍

I've noticed that the airlines seem to make most of their decisions based on panic. They need to practice better ADM.

Despite big guilt is on pilot and his ignorance, equal is on traffic control choices to tel dead airplane without engines and hidraulic to go around, somehow ti does that mirracle I do not know how considering situation information given in this video, just to return with front wheel extended which causes crash in the end by bouncing of aircraft instead they did belly landing first atempt, no none would be harmed exept pilot pride and wallet.

I can't imagine that someone this supposed to be a licensed pilot could have such a cavalier attitude about flying his aircraft. I'm sorry that this ended in the deaths of some people but that's what it takes to stop them.

The pilot victimized the passengers and innocent person on the ground.

VFR into IMC once again ….

Great advice on how to move her with a tow bar. THanks!

The guy was an egoist and 6 other people paid dearly for his incompetence and false bravado. Awful, unnecessary and sad!

Just learn spins. Every flight school should have an aerobatic aircraft. After the first scary lesson, the rest are fun. It takes the suspense out of stalls.

I was telling the pilot that shared this on an unrelated Discord server that I'm no pilot but with my option being a maneuver called "The Impossible Turn" my ass is gonna be look for a nice road or open field to kiss the ground.

Pilot: I’m going to keep climbing! ATC: Ok, I know you’re not VFR but I won’t say anything and just let you keep flying higher and higher till you say! Way to go ATC! You stood by and didn’t tell the pilot to descend immediately! 🤙🏻

Second class is good for SEC privileges as an ATP, no?

Was the pilot related to Stockton Rush?

Same with sports cars. Rich guys and doctors buy the most aggressive vehicles they can get but they do t use the brains they used to get to the top to learn to fly their planes and drive their cars

One of the best videos on you tube thanks.

One of the best videos on you tube thanks.

I own your course "ppl made easy". That's crazy, your free KZbin videos are almost better than the paid ones. You have new 3D animations that are only available for KZbin, more footage examples than in the paid courses too. Last point, in the paid course, you are not talking about all these types of fog. Same for your video about fronts, that is much better than the paid course. Could you update the paid courses with the latest 3D and footage goodies instead of keeping them only for KZbin ?

Do not turn to propeller in normal direction of rotation! Mag's could be hot, even if the ignition is off! Do NOT push on the spinner! Also, that propeller pulls the aircraft through the sky! you can push and pull on it! Just do it near the center, not at the prop tips! AP/IA

This channel is the best thanks for all the help.

Great video, as are all of them. So for this level, yes, an engine sucks in air. But for your level, know an engine creates a low pressure in the cylinder and the higher pressure pushes it into the low. Thank you for all of these. I don't have any pilot friends to discuss these things with and the discussion on the site is students at your same level so this is useful to get to utilize both experienced pilots and student pilots.

Great explanation

It blows my mind that the plane broke apart in mid air. I don’t understand what caused that. Is it just high winds blowing on the plane?

Would you say the physics arw realistic?

Can you elaborate on the statement that most WAAS GPS can do LNAV/VNAV???
