There is a joke about the engine thing. A guy who had never flown before was on a 747 and one of the engines failed. The pilot made an announcement that it was still perfectly safe bu they would be landing between 20 and 30 minutes late. A little while later another engine gives out and the pilot announces that it will now be approximately a one and a half hour delay. Then a third engine bites the dust. The pilot reassures the passengers that as they are lightly loaded and have already used a lot of fuel it is still perfectly safe on one engine, but unfortunately the delay will now be 3 hours. The passenger turns to the guy next to him and says "I hope the other engine does not give up or we will be up here all night".

Shocking! Next you’ll tell me firefighters practice fighting fires. Seriously, I don’t like flying and I’m absolutely terrified of heights, but acting like pilots are incompetant or clueless about their own job seems really offensive to me. Especially considering how few airplanes actually do crash. Respect people who work hard for you.

[@justsomeguy5628]

And the training works well. A duel engine plane losing one of its engines will probably be fine, as the pilots know how to try to get it to work again or maneuver a landing with only one working engine.

[@justsomeguy5628]

@@bluecrystal3614 Yeah, the safety of airplanes is kinda hard to grasp. 7,624,619 flights, or 20,875 years of daily flights would be the actual amount of time one would have to fly before you are more likely than not to have been in a crash, assuming your 1 in 11,000,000 figure is correct. Even then, if you survive that many flights, the chances of your next flight crashing are still only 1 in 11,000,000, and considering you haven't been in a crash, it is significantly less likely, because it would mean you're more likely to be taking safer planes and trips.

Pakistan's aviation minister told parliament on Wednesday that a large number of commercial pilots hold fake licences or cheated in exams. It comes as an initial report into a PIA crash that killed 97 people last month found the cause to be human error by the pilot and air traffic control. Pakistan has a chequered aviation safety record with a number of crashes. Aviation minister Ghulam Sarwar Khan shared the findings of an initial report into May's crash on Wednesday, but also referred to a wider government probe, which had been launched after a different crash. Following the 2018 crash, it was discovered that the test date on the pilot's licence was a public holiday, suggesting that testing could not have taken place on that day. Mr Khan said investigations had found that more than 260 of the country's 860 active pilots had either fake licences or had cheated in their exams."

[@BQuinn-js1jf]

Intentionally that's true. That said if you go back and look at every major incident/accident since the 70's it's pilot or mechanical error along with mechanical error not remedied by pilotage. These days the pilots are there in case something goes wrong, at that time they need to know what to do. Problem is some don't and it causes problems like worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX. The 2 crashes were poorly trained pilots for airlines in countries that don't have the strict training and safety protocols of western countries. Knee jerk reactions cause people to be scared, I've seen passengers refuse to fly when they see MAX on their ticket. Nonetheless, most accidents are liveable so the fear is perpetuated by social media. (When I say don't know what to do I'm talking about airline types referenced in the MAX incidents)

"Nope, just looking for a return." ATC "are you landing heavy?" "Nope, just looking for a return. Everything's fine." "do you need fire?" "Nope, not needed there's no emergency." ATC couldn't get it through his head that the 747 had no emergency after an engine failure.. Gives him the return vectors and landing clearance... says fire is standing by. "Thanks, but not needed."

Personally, my perfect seat is a window seat as I like leaning against the wall rather than being bumped by everyone walking by, and as close to the front as possible so I don't have to wait as long to exit, and have fewer people ahead of me at customs. Though I'll happily take a row further back if it looks like I can manage a couple empty seats beside me.

Even if the mechanism was perfect, most crashes happen during landing, takeoff or are instant destruction (like flying into terrain or mid air collision). In order for that ejection system to work you need to have some weird situation when you're cruising high but know the plane won't make it. So wee are talking about mechanical issues with avionics, hydraulics or all engines failure. Which means that it's better to invest same amount of resources into making those systems more reliable. Military ejection seats would be better but thay are ridiculously expensive, require constant maintenance and would kill most passengers with 9-12 g blast.

Strictly speaking cotton is flammable. However, when I was working on utility poles we were specifically instructed to wear cotton clothes. The reason is that in the event of contact with live conductors, cotton burns but it doesn't melt. When it comes right down to it you're going to be better off if your cotton shirt burns than if your polyester shirt melts into your flesh.

Cotton isn’t “non-flammable” in fact it’s extremely flammable, the reason some people who work with electricity wear it is because when it catches fire it burns up and disintegrates extremely fast.

[@DrPersonman]

As a fire enthusiast, I think its appeal around some jobs is less about how fast it burns and more about how it doesn't leave molten plastic on your skin (just charred bits that suck at conducting heat into your skin). At least that's why I would rather wear it around fire or hot things, burns more like a resin than a thermoplastic. Also seems like it's more prone to charring and repelling things like beads of molten metal. Thermoplastic fibers tend to catch things like that and hold them or rapidly melt and retract away from the hot thing and let it hit your skin.

A girl at elementary school got burned badly when she had been wearing a nylon dress during the Christmas dinner at elementary school (her elbow had been above a small candle). Most of the burning happened because of the plastic melting and causing fumes to ignite much quicker, setting her dress on fire, which in itself woulld be a disaster with cotton or nylon, but now the molten plastic stayed on her skin and got etched into it. I can recall the first day of school after Christmas holidays where we were told about what happened (it was a different location of the same school at which it happened) and how it would influence anything involving candles and clothing from that moment on. Candles would not be on tables anymore, and every parent was instructed to dress their child for those kind of celebrations in cotton-only clothing. Had the same thing happen to me once with a cotton shirt, the moment I had this "Gee that's hot!" feeling in my elbow and pulled away my arm the shirt self extinguished (ok, it might have been impregnated with a flame-retardant, but still).

The "within 5 rows of an exit" thing came from ONE study at Cranfield in about 1988 or 89, under VERY specific circumstances (I was part of the study, one of the, in this trial, untrained evacuees, simulating more realistic evacuation than the certification tests). When the main doors are blocked, leaving only overwing exits, and in this trial those were the old, really small ones (not on anything built since the mid 90's), only a few rows made it se tiny exits before they got clogged with people clammering to get out; the trial had to be stopped to avoid anyone getting injured (the purpose of the trial was to stop deaths and injuries, not to risk us participants). Unlike certification tests, where everyone exits in an orderly manner, we were incentivised to get out - the first half out got an extra payment, which for students was worth a little pushing and shoving. It wasnt totally realistic (no hand luggage, all of us were relatively fit and young with no old grannies) but it proved that real evacuations are very different, especially when there is an incentive (similar to an engine fire). In the rest of the tests, 5 rows?, bullsh!t!

I believe this was repeated (don’t know the exact circumstances or rules there) in a documentary where they even crashed an old aircraft in the desert somewhere.I saw it and thought it made sense that in case you have to evacuate quickly, being closer to an exit was better. In the experiment, they didn’t coach anyone more than usual but also didn’t try to make it harder. Many at the door didn’t push the discarded door out of the plane (the most common ‘error’ and therefore it was in the way of the exit). That meant many could’ve exited much earlier...

Failure risk, cost, reduced performance and compared to current safety rates show it's just not feasible. No need to dive deeper (the deeper issues would vary depending on the solution design). Plus, we'd also be saying "not only that, but good luck finding a pilot willing to fly the damn thing." We engineers know who our end users are, and those of us who've been around long enough know "cynicism is just being bluntly realistic."

actually as aerospace engineer it is true that it's easier to design a safer twin jet aircraft than a 4 engine aircraft. As the main design parameters drive wings to more swept back wings, which means you have either a larger moment acting on the engine (further back from the root of the wing, giving a weird moment, or a further forward extending pylong creating a moment around the pylon). Modern aircraft typically have hence only two engines especially since they are typically smaller moving away from a hub-spoke system.

Like... 40 out of a 100... then 300 out of a 1000... and 100 out of a 200... so you get 0.4 at 1/13 weight, 0.3 at 10/13 weight and 0.5 at 2/13 weight... and you, again, get a concrete percentage. How they got a +-6% in that process is beyond me :D EDIT: I think you can determine how statistically relevant your full sample is and then transform the "level of significance" to concrete numbers as a deviation. But if the deviation was THIS large, I think that any statistical table would dismiss it altogether as simply statistically insignificant. So I doubt that is it.

[@mikoto7693]

Oh really? I’m not an engineer or a pilot but when the idea of parachutes was introduced to my mind in the comments section of another aviation video recommending it as an idea. But after thinking about it for a few minutes I realised it probably wouldn’t be a good idea. Admittedly this was more about an individual passenger grabbing a parachute pack and bailing out of a passenger plane experiencing serious trouble but likely many of the same problems would likely apply. After mulling over the concept for a moment I came up with similar problems. Passenger planes move fast. Like, really fast. I don’t know the specific numbers but even if the pilots were flirting with the absolute slowest the plane could fly without the engines stalling that’s still hundreds of miles an hour. I want to say over 200 but I really don’t know if I’m accurately remembering some random thing I might have picked up from an aviation video so don’t quote me on that. Either way I have severe doubts about whether the human body is even capable of jumping or falling out of something like a 747 or one of it’s two engine cousins, avoid the engines if you’re jumping out of the front exits, avoid clipping the hull or side fins at the tail, without taking severe damage or injuries from the forces involved in such a thing. And that’s before I thought about the next problem which is that most people aren’t trained to jump out of aircrafts and use parachutes safely. And that’s about the point where my mind kind of sprung back to the conditions passenger planes tend to fly at. Where the air is so thin we can’t breathe it and so cold we’d be unlikely to survive that. Admittedly I stopped thinking about it because that’s the point where I decided that the whole thing was ludicrous. But as a bonus round, I remember a documentary team that was allowed to follow a bunch of Air Force cadets as they went through their basic training and one episode covered their jump out of a plane and parachute down training. I think it must have been low altitude version because they weren’t nearly as high as sky divers are. Plus there were instructors on the ground able to bellow at each cadet as he or she went down. And even though they’d had a lot of training and practice beforehand, out of the about twenty or so that jumped, two ballsed it up. One got twisted in the paracords and only avoided injury out of a combination of luck and emergency training. The second seemed to freeze up and tensed instead of loosening up to disperse the landing impact and broke a leg. Admittedly though the fuselage ejection parachute system idea legitimately never even occurred to me as a concept before watching this video and I had a split second where I mentally protested the sudden changes in weight and balance before Kelsey was pointing out those exact things. Honestly the whole thing can be summed up by another thought I had while deciding parachutes on passenger planes was a stupid idea. “Really, given how long commercial flying has existed, how many times things have gone wrong and hundreds of people have died, these giant flying metal behemoths have been designed by the best minds of humanity and the safety rules proverbially written in blood. If such an idea worked, people smarter than me would have already thought of it and made it work.”

"There are no ejection seats or parachutes" TikTokers: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN! Ejection seats and parachutes! Are we gonna talk about how "non flammable material like cotton" when rephrased to "cotton flammability" and put into Google comes up as "extremely flammable"? xD

[@indicaking]

Cotton is flammable, but it's safe than polyester which would basically turn into napalm on your skin. In my welding class, the first think we were told was to NEVER wear polyester, always wear denim Jean's and a cotton long sleeve because the sparks will almost instantly catch polyester on fire

[@iexist3153]

I don’t see why there’s a need for ejection seats it’s really just extra weight

[@koflynn2159]

There no parachutes because when the plane crashes if you are in brace positions you'll be fine and if there were parachutes you are actually more likely to die of cute failure or getting separated from everyone in a tree or something.

[@karlharvymarx2650]

@@indicaking Exactly what I was taught too. Imagine being coated in something about as sticky as pancake syrup, maybe twice as hot as boiling water, and on fire. Cotton and ash are fluffy, not as good at transferring heat into skin as a hot liquid. Although, I suppose if you have the misfortune of being soaked in burning jet fuel...well if you survive, at least they won't be ripping glued on plastic out of the burns.

[@RoyalMela]

Most plane accidents happen during takeoff or landing. Those are the events when a parachute is useless. When at cruise altitudes, parachutes are a possibility, but with those speeds parachutes would just rip and tear right off, becoming useless. And it would take 27 football field sized parachutes to carry a 747, so there would even be space for passengers or cargo.

[@dbclass4075]

@@tanya5322 For instance: complying ATC instructions.

[@Vincent_Sullivan]

@@dbclass4075 In a sense, yes. If ATC issues a routine (non emergency) instruction to change course or change altitude and the autopilot is "on" the pilot flying is probably not going to turn off the autopilot and change course/altitude using the yoke. Instead the pilot will twiddle the knobs on the autopilot as per ATC request and the AP will execute standard rate turns or set climb/descent rates to comply with the ATC requests.

[@dbclass4075]

@@Vincent_Sullivan But as you described, it still requires pilot's input. Even they are just knobs and buttons, it is not something we could realistically expect a panicking passenger to interact properly.

[@Vincent_Sullivan]

@@dbclass4075 This is exactly why I said "In a SENSE, yes." Yes, pilot interaction is required to interpret the ATC request and input it to the autopilot, but during this sort of situation the flight control surfaces are controlled at all times by the autopilot and only by the autopilot and "controlling the flight control surfaces" is what "flies the plane". During most commercial flights the human pilot does not directly control the flight control surfaces for most of the flight - takeoff and landing being good examples of when they do actually manually control the flight control surfaces. I wonder how long it will be before the AP manufacturers and the data link manufacturers figure out a way to send course and altitude instructions directly from ATC to the AP. This would eliminate the risk of pilots misunderstanding ATC instructions or entering them incorrectly into the AP, but it would also remove the "sanity check" that pilots should apply to ATC instructions. Not sure where your comment about panicking passengers adjusting the AP comes from. Nowhere in this comment thread are passengers mentioned. I think we are all assuming the passengers are in the back and only pilots are in the cockpit.

You can tell by Bobby's body language, he's trying to make his video seem like it's a crucial event, or even an emergency. He doesn't sit still, but bounces around. He doesn't keep his hands consistent, either, going from closed to open to by his side to pointing across him, and then the spread finger effect for "seriousness."

I worked for a commercial airline for 40 years. The fuel liad is caculated on distance,passemger load, cargo, weather...by Dispatch. I have witnessed a pilot requesting more fuel. The last point of the passenger compartment ejecting would totally change the CG of the plane. I was instructed to make 737s tail heavy, within central load planning parameters to keep the nose up, therefore using less fuel. IDK if this is true, but better minds than mine decided.

[@pop5678eye]

One thing so many of these self-described 'experts' on Tik Tok don't address is being considerate for the safety of fellow passengers. The reason you have to put up your tray table, put away laptops, have your seat upright etc. is not arbitrary. They are because all of those things become obstacles/flying hazards in the case of a crash landing. This is also why it should be criminally prosecutable when during an evacuation anyone starts grabbing for their bags and holding up 40 fellow passengers behind them.

[@marshallneff1631]

having a wet cloth or smoke hood in case of fire is almost on the level of bringing a parachute in case the planes wall opens up next to you, and you get sucked out

[@JRmarksmen]

I am at the part where you were talking about evacuating the plane in 90 seconds. I can say I along with quite a few others were messaged and asked if we wanted to participate in that test. The "training" you get is not that much really. The big thing is that makes a difference is that you know you need to leave quickly. This gives you time to count the seats, mentally think, and react sooner, along with actually memorizing how to remove emergency doors. Beyond that, not much real training, we did the entire thing in under 30 minutes and this was more or less random people. I was seated next to a machinist and some Sr manager that did something with IT. So, yeah, less trained than you think. 37 got its air cert back though, and this was one of the required tests.

[@nataliamiranda677]

Interesting. I would say the most concerning issue is people worry about their bags and dont think about people behind them cant evacuate.

[@1steelcobra]

The "multi engine is less safe than single" is technically true on Fighter jets though. But that tends to come down to two factors: Increased risk of maintenance mistakes by having twice as much engine labor High risk of cascading failure because the engines are next to each other, rather than spaced out like on an airliner, bomber, or transport plane.

I also have huge respect for your commitment to looking at other pilot conduct with objectiveness and fairness, always giving credit where credit is due. It's a special breed to do what you do, and a fine line between pride and arrogance.... so stay jussssst slightly on the side of proud. And keep the blue side up.
