July 3, 2024 Update From Hospital

[@CapeAragoOregon]

Thank you for the update Dan! We are praying for your full recovery. You are bringing AQP to aviators even from your hospital bed! Now that is dedication!

[@tabttu]

Dan, I am a non-pilot follower/subscriber. I've been watching your AQP and other "Probable Cause" videos for a few years now, and have really grown to enjoy your Sunday night rundowns. I am so relieved and glad to see that you're doing well after your accident! God has a purpose for you, and this incident will only make that purpose clearer and more prevalent than ever. My thoughts and prayers are with you, and the others involved, as you continue on the road to recovery. God Bless!

[@ProbableCause-DanGryder]

Thank you! Getting better!

[@AgentClaytonWebb]

I 💗 Dan… this guy is in the hospital, after surgery and still giving us the flight info!

[@rtqii]

I was able to read the 12A instrument panel gauges on Dan's face a week ago, he's looking better.

[@thelonerizla1]

[@wstlndiesel]

Hillarious

[@thor3279]

I think that's just how he looks....

[@demef758]

Some commenters on here would argue that the 12A imprint on Dan's face was a major upgrade.

[@ProbableCause-DanGryder]

Certainly isn’t worse!

[@w8biatvrepeater638]

That knucklehead ruined a completely good instrument panel. Keep mending Dan, you are one tough cookie!!!

[@scottenglert4083]

Dan - I live near the Catskill Mountains in NY not too far from where that Malibu crashed...as soon as I saw that the wreckage was dispersed over a mile I knew that had to be an in-flight break-up. The weather here that day was *terrible* - severe storm risk all day... big storms in the afternoon... one that hit us scared me even with my feet planted firmly on the ground... A microburst leveled a campground in same general region of NY earlier before the plane crash. You could *see* towering thunderheads in most any direction all day long...absolutely crazy they even got in the plane that day, let alone took off...

[@jimw1615]

Everything has been located from the aircraft except the rudder. So, I suspect that was the first thing that failed, and if so, may account for the erratic flight path at the end of its flight.

[@AlanMydland-fq2vs]

pilots to blame, most peopl dont know😢

[@timewa851]

@@AlanMydland-fq2vs assume it (Malibu) had a decent panel..How do you miss miles-high thunderheads?? Or try & thread between them?

[@scottenglert4083]

@timewa851 Yeah, like you say, my guess is that they tried to thread the needle - but the storms fired up earlier than typical for this area (I think the one that really hit that campground hard was around 1030 a.m. - which is super weird timing for such a strong storm). If they were going to try that, mid-afternoon was not a great choice... To be fair, I think the storms were fairly widely scattered, but the whole day just had that "juiced" feel to it...

Glad to see you on the mend... Only you would hear a story and while still recovering right after surgery, research and report on it!!! By the way, as I said the night of your live, we would all appreciate it if the next time you plan to add a scenario to AQP, you don't volunteer as a crash test dummy!!! Love you and your content and your work, Dan!

[@GuyFromSC]

Funny how life works sometimes right? Dan you’re out here working tirelessly, even from a hospital bed, doing the lord’s work spreading AQP and literally saving lives. What a beautiful circle of life for your Dr. to be there to help you while being also so heavily engrained in the exact same cause that you’ve made your life’s work. I think I speak for us all when I say, we appreciate you Dan Gryder! And we are so grateful to have you still here with us serving as our GA leader. As we tune in to learn more from you, we all take these valuable lessons back to our communities to share. This is much bigger than YT Analytics. Your impact on GA can’t be measured by subs, likes, views, comments, etc. It’s exponentially more than anything you can put a value on. How do you value saving lives? What is it worth to have your work and life’s mission play such a monumental role in reducing the number of GA fatalities year after year? Sure, there are other important factors that play into this, but they’re not as cool or funny. 😜 To the only man that can keep me up past 10pm on a Sunday, I hope you never lose your sense of humor. And please never lose that Gryder drive that allows you to successfully tackle this layered and nuanced problem we have in GA. Stay humble, stay entertaining, and continue giving us all the tough love that we need. To Dan and everyone else reading this, let’s all move forward with more gratitude and grace. Because everything we know and love can be stripped from us in a split second. Heal up buddy. 🙏🏼 And for my “itty bitty tiny fledgling” KZbin comment, David Bordner, Probable Cause Gang. 😂 Happy 4th of July. #DTSB #ProbableCause #AQP

[@ProbableCause-DanGryder]

Thank you David, well written and comments like this do help me stay the course among the haters….I think all of us are bringing a new real time awareness out that is having an effect, thank you for your note, -Dan

[@andybis3251]

Godspeed your healthy recovery and bless all those who soar like Eagles.

@@ProbableCause-DanGryder Hey man anything I can do to help. I’m sure you’re either going stir crazy or in bed full of pain. So I wanted to show ya just a fraction of the love that you typically get while on the road at your speaking events. Rest up buddy & let me know if ya need anything. 🙏🏼

Glad you are getting better Dan. Thanks for the update on your condition. Flew my Cirrus from KSPG to KEGV for vacation and came across this recent crash as we left church on Monday.

Thanks Dan for the update on everything. Praying for you. Keep the faith. God's not finished with you. So glad for the doctors and nurses that put you back together again. Now you can mend and recover quickly.

[@Andrew-13579]

Sounds like that Southwest flight almost did the same thing over Oklahoma City, June 19th. Visual approach at night, not following the glide slope or no ILS glide slope available to that runway. Possibly saved by an alert air traffic controller! (FAA should give him a $500 bonus! He saved the FAA and NTSB far more money than that, not to mention the lives.) Don’t the airports still have VASIs or PAPIs? Get well soon, Dan!

Glad you are safe & keep all options fully open to possible cause of accident including not choosing to lock tail wheel. Never be closed minded again in 2024!

Tailwheel locked would have delayed the same turn a tad but it’s still going left. Theres not enough wheel or downforce to keep it from pulling it left. If we had delayed any at all we would have hit fuel tanks.

Flight 797 made emergency landing at Greater Cincinnati airport in 1983,after a fire started in lavatory area in flight, unfortunately many people died on ground mainly from smoke before evacuation. Thank goodness I don’t believe any other airliner accidents have occurred there since then. Hoping for continued recovery for you Dan.

I was a heavy pilot in the Air Force. At night we had to use a precision approach. If there was a GCA (Ground Controlled Approach) PAR available you used the PAR and monitored the ILS also. As a civilian, I always was very careful of my glide-slope at night. I always made sure I had a 600-700 fpm descent rate. Often the job just required a night visual but I was very careful to be on a normal glideslope. Towards the end of my career, we could use an artificial GPS glideslope. Thank you God. That saves lives.

[@strohbruke4803]

Captain Teelin, who had 225 hours of line flying in a Boeing 727, was in charge of the flight. He, however, was acting both as co-pilot and as check-airman for Captain O'Neill, who was at the controls. Captain O'Neill had received his Boeing 727 rating only eighteen days previously and had only 11½ hours of line flying time in a 727. He had flown a 727 into the Cincinnati Airport one time previously, during the day time. There was evidence that at least one time during his 727 qualification training he experienced difficulty executing "missed approach" technique.

For years the AA and TWA crash spots were viewable on the hill just above route 8 in KY. You could see it easily on the River Road side in Ohio I remember seeing the open space as a kid 20-30 years after the crashes. The trees never grew back. Took a lot interest in that as I grew up in Delhi under the 18R (later it became the 18c) approach and all the planes flew over my house non stop. Now I’m a 28 year Delta employee…..growing up with the planes over my head stuck with me.
