Vertigo and sensory illusions while on instruments are no joke. I read all about them and understood their causes and the importance of ignoring your senses and trusting the instruments. The first time I flew with the goggles, it happened to me - the plane felt like it was in a steep dive and rolling left. The engine was speeding up and the sound was getting louder and higher pitched. The instruments said I was level but slowly losing altitude. It freaked me out so I asked my instructor to take the controls. Learning to ignore those sensations when they’re screaming at you - it’s very visceral and takes getting used to. What’s really surprising is that the very instant you can see the ground, it goes away completely.

We have to wonder why the 2017-mandated Pilot Records Database was not yet in place in 2020. Who might oppose publication of such records? In 2009, Colgan Air was involved in a similar incident, as this video points out, erupting in a huge legal firestorm. After Colgan, many airlines had reason to fear publication of the PRD would open them to similar legal damage. Key question-- did the FAA drag its feet on the PRD after clandestine calls from airlines?
@petep.2092
@petep.2092 2 жыл бұрын
The Colgan Air crash in 2009 was nowhere similar to this one. They were in icing conditions, had ice accumulations on the wings, didn't execute required checklists and were chatting about completely unrelated stuff while the airplane was on an unstabilized final approach. The Q400 airplane had a T-tail so it was equipped with a stick pusher that forces the stick forward to avoid entering a stall, from which recovery is usually not possible. When the airplane stalled, the pilot overcame the stick pusher by using brute force, worsening the stall.

The thing I caught was the HR hiring bit. This happens all the time. Unqualified people making decisions on employee hiring for other departments. Once we were presented with an "actor" as a candidate for IT security. His qualifications, he knew how to run his desktop Norton. I called HR and asked if anyone ever read his resume. The answer was that resumes are done online and run through an algorithm that spits out the "Top" candidates. So HR doesn't even do the work.

9:30 OH HELLLLL NOOO! The assessment said this first officer was one of the worst pilots she had ever seen, and that he had a tendency when things went wrong, to begin pressing controls just to be doing something. I’m in the computer field and there’s nothing worse than an operator who does this!!! I have seen it many times, my Dad is even one of them. It’s like they get flustered and somehow can’t help randomly pressing buttons, almost like a mild panic-state. Whenever I witness this, it’s very apparent that they are not deliberately choosing which buttons to press for any particular reason. I always try to explain to my Dad that when you’re confronted with a screen that presents a confusing or worrying scenario, the worst thing you can do is immediately press buttons before you even have a moment to comprehend WHAT exactly you are commanding the computer to do! You COMPOUND the problem like a snowball rolling down a hill. Now you don’t even know what you just pressed, you DISMISSED a crucial warning/message displayed on the previous screen so fast you couldn’t possibly have read it, and there is no way to go back. Like if given a “Are you sure you want to do (x)?” and someone clicks the “Don’t Remind Me Again” without even knowing (x)! Now the situation is so needlessly complicated that it would be difficult even for an expert to solve. It’s terrifying to think of people piloting aircraft with this reckless habit.

Did you guys not pay attention to the last minutes of the video? The last minutes review the evidence that (1) he didn't have the capacity to understand instrument indications in real time, and (2) in abnormal instrument scenarios, he did "random" things - I.e. took multiple actions that had little/no relevance to the instrument indications. It has nothing to do with attentiveness, alertness, consciousness, or even IQ. I don't know what the gates are for the civilian path to piloting, but the military won't even let you into flight school unless you demonstrate certain aptitudes.

Thank you for creating this amazing content. I love it that you narrate everything, instead of writing it out on screen with some background airplane noise. Much easier to follow. Audio is good now. Room echo is still there but not so disturbing anymore. Amazing how small things and mistakes so easily lead to crashes. If they had been flying the plane, they would have looked at their attitude, and they would notice the go-around activation. And then, immediately act on it: just go around with the flow, or disable the automation and continue to land. Sometimes I really cannot comprehend what's happening between the ears of some of those pilots. Ultimate example: the landing gear light bulb crew.

What bothers me about the cases described on this channel is that the errors which led to these various crashes are nearly all rookie mistakes. Not just rookie, but really new rookie. The problems of orienting an aircraft, say, were solved some eighty years ago, and a trainee starts getting the proper procedures drilled into him before he's had five hours of flight training. By the time he's racked up maybe 20 hours in the air it should all have become instinct, to the point that he starts to even drive his car that way; when in doubt drop your nose, don't let your speed drop too low, always "step on the ball" of the slip-skid indicator to stay in coordinated flight, trust your instruments (particularly the artificial horizon!) more than your senses (which of course are not well adapted to flight), etc. And it's not that things have changed since I went through the drill, as these air transport pilots started their training long ago, I'm sure long before I did. All very odd.

96% of air crashes happen due to pilot error, and yet, when one does crash, the first thing they do is look at the maintenance records of the airplane like they are trying to protect the pilots. And guess what? They are. That is the result of the pilots unions. Deflect blame, take no responsibility and if no one dies, give them an award.

Fortunately, most of the struggling new hires (FOs) are either weeded out during their initial new hire SIM training or when lacking the necessary proficiency, they'll get extra attention by falling into "special tracking", forcing them to have recurrent training every 6 months instead of every 12 months. But that's if the airline actually manages to find and pin point these special cases within their training program. It takes a lot of organization and professionalism in order to make things work properly and most importantly, to graduate safe and sound pilots out of the training department. In my class we had a 60+ year old GA flight instructor. He received 3 or 4 extra SIM sessions and still failed the training during MV. The one and only reason why he made that far was because during our ground school my SIM partner answered almost all of his knowledge validation exam for this struggling old man. I was furious to witness what took place but apparently our instructor pretended he wasn't seeing it and allowed it to "fly". I knew he wasn't going to make it eventually. We also had another pilot in my class that had come from a regional. He struggled to fly the airplane and understand the automation. He kept pushing all sorts of buttons expecting the airplane to miraculously fix itself. You have to tell the airplane what you want it to do, not the other way around. If things are not going well you have to disconnect the auto pilot and hand fly the airplane accordingly. After 4 extra SIM sessions, he was called into the training manager's office and was asked if he wanted one extra SIM session and risk getting fired if he didn't perform up to standards, or choose to quit right then and there and try again in 6 months. He chose to quit on the spot. So, yeah, it's up to the training department to weed out these phony wannabe pilots and invest in the ones that will turn out to be good, safe and sound airline pilots. This whole 767 Atlas accident could've been avoided had Atlas done a better job during this FOs training, weeding him out or giving him the extra training he needed to become proficient. Unfortunately, it looks like no amount of extra training would have done the trick for this FO from Atlas. He was unable to understand what was going on by simply looking at his PFD and FMA, his air speed was excessive, the aircraft nose diving and he still thought they were stalling. Sad to see his lack of airmanship took down the airplane and the 2 others souls in it. You can't let someone like that anywhere near an airliner, let alone a 767. *RMK: the video narrator is mistaken about the causes for the Colgan Air accident to take place. Please look it up.

I was flying a Piper Cherokee working on instrument flying over the Trinity Bay at the exact same time as this crash. We took off out of Baytown (KHPY) and then proceeded to Pearland (KLVJ) on radar vectors. Turbulence was moderate to severe for us at least as described by my friend in his pirep to ATC. Airspeed indicator was jumping from 80 to 120 in rapid succession and I had to pretty much devote all of my attention to the attitude indicator to keep the wings level. We also had to request 3,000 feet instead of our initial altitude of 2000 because of strong updrafts. I remember pointing the nose down and still climbing which was a big pucker factor. I also remember entering the clouds at around 1,200 so there was absolutely no chance for this crew to visually see the ground and recover.

The 767 is not FBW. The pitch control has a mechanism that allows the left and right control columns to move independently when the forces exceed 100 pounds differential. Then each stick only actuates the same-side elevator. The two sides reconnect when the differential drops below 100 lb. The stabilizer doesn't split, but whether a pilot could use the electric stabilizer trim to assist that side when the controls are independent depends… the column cutout switches prevent trimming in the opposite direction to the action applied to the elevator, but that protection circuitry doesn't split when the controls split. In theory, the system would prevent trimming in any direction while the controls are split, except that there is an override switch that takes away the counter control prevention feature as though the column cutout switches didn't exist. Also, some airlines took the option to have column cutout switches only on one column, so in that case the pilot on the other side would prevail, unless the override switch was activated. I'd have to analyze the circuit diagrams to figure out what would happen if the override switch was activated and then both pilots tried to trim in their direction.

Much like the regional airlines which are contracted to major airlines around the world as [Insert airline name] Express/Connection. Atlas Air mostly operate a fleet of 747s under their own branding, but also have a few 767s which they use for the Amazon contract. But again, they are not the only carrier operating under contract with Amazon as Prime Air. If and when the contract between Atlas Air and Amazon ends, the 767s will either be repainted in the Atlas Air color scheme, or repainted for another client.

An analogy: When is the last time you saw hundreds of drivers obsessively study the antics of some rando who smashed his minivan into a tree, after not knowing how to handle wet roads? Never. But if everyone did, how many people would avoid an accident because they now how to avoid hydroplaning on asphalt? A lot. That's why we do this. We never want to be, "that guy".

This is one of many accidents that could have been avoided had there been proper cockpit communication, and by simply reading the flight instruments.

@@privatepybr0 Nigeria 2120 - Tyre was underinflated which caused lots of heat from friction, and when retracted after takeoff, started a fire, of which they didn't have enough time to turn around and land. Delta 191 - Windshear/ microburst slammed the plane down and they didn't have enough altitude to recover. It's why planes now have better weather radar.

Somatogravic illusions are used brilliantly in Disneyland’s Star Wars attraction - in reverse to the instance in this video. You feel yourself accelerating inside the starship, which your eyes confirm. In fact, the whole theater is merely being tilted upwards, lending precisely the same sensation as acceleration. To come down to a sudden stop, the seats are tilted forwards. Under normal circumstances, the mind doesn’t know the difference.

​@@dontspikemydrink9382 It's not affirmative at all, but that's what the US government calls its quota system. Atlas bypassed many qualified candidates because the quota system requires them to hire some pilots based solely on skin color, even if there are no qualified applicants of a particular race. In this case some qualified Caucasian males who are US citizens were rejected in favor of a foreign national who met the quota requirements. It's an evil system, but the government mandates it and Atlas went along with it.

4:35 shouldn't the GO AROUND mode also move the thrusters to maximum level? How could the pilots not notice that and hear the engines roaring? Especially the one holding the air break so close to the thrusts?

He thought that they were stalling. He thought that the plane was pitching up dangerously when it wasn’t. So in his mind he expected the plane to stall.
