I absolutely love your content on your channels!! My most flown aircraft on my flight simulator happen to be the 737-700, 737-800, and 737 Max 8. I do fly some of the other Boeing aircraft from time to time as well, but nowhere near as often. Oddly enough, I ended up with the Thrustmaster Airbus Officer’s Edition Flight Stick and Throttle Quadrant only because they more than doubled the price of the Boeing Edition. This one is a little easier to travel with as well. Being blind, I have ways of hand flying the aircraft and landing, but do to calibration difficulties, I much prefer auto landing, and watching this definitely was a help.❤

Have you covered the Tupolev TU-154 crash in Longyearbyen? I learned of it when I travelled there in 2016, it's fascinating from a malfunction/work overload/language barrier perspective, and also the following fallout from the loss of passengers resulting in the nearby mining town needing to be evacuated (it is still a ghost town to this day, very eerie to visit, even school papers still out on desks. I could likely dig up some photos). Highly recommended to take a look at!

The chances of both total pilot incapacitation _and_ significant technical failure combined are just so abysmally small. But, to answer your question, if a passenger had to take control, and there was then a control inversion failure, everyone on board would assuredly be dead. I think OP meant the stress of the emergency _of total pilot incapacitation itself,_ not with any other added complications.

total layman here: My only "complaint" is when Tom started to panic, Mentour did not show much effort to deescalate Tom's fear, Now, that could have been cut in editing. But I think the reason Tom crashed is because he panicked and stopped listening. Unless the emergency was an equipment failure, wouldn't it have been prudent to have Tom throttle up, and pitch up, and make another lap somewhere around the time he stated he intended to land on the taxiway? (honest question, )

When he started to really get anxious and overwhelmed I just wanted to tell him it's ok, calm down like 10% and refocus. Then get him to do some more simple exercises to get the feel for the plane before executing the approach. It was obviously stressing him out and it was affecting his ability to keep everything under control. I would say he did a really good job at communicating, he just needed to know it was ok to take his time, and to breathe, and that he was doing a great job at learning everything on the fly so far, just keep at it. Kudos to Tom Scott for giving it his best and for sharing something that didn't go perfectly, I think that shows a lot of courage and self-awareness. And kudos to Mentour Pilot for making this happen, and for being a great coach. I understand that you were trying to get him to land with minimal training and with time pressure so none of what I said was a criticism on your coaching. I could just see he was stressing and wanted him to nail that landing haha

When you know what you're doing the extra complexity means you can easily see if the autopilot is failing, and especially when landing, things like the heading, speed, and altitude you need may change up to the last second depending on weather and traffic, so it can't be a one-button system. But if you watched Petter's videos on everything you need to do to land a plane it's more obvious how complex it actually is to fly a plane, and how much the autopilot simplifies that task despite its complexity. If Apple or Microsoft had designed it everything would be buried deep inside the system and you wouldn't know what's happening if anything goes wrong because they're scared to expose their users to actual technical information, and only give you a summarized glance at what's happening.

That was absolutely brilliant! I felt Tom's emotions from start to finish. If I were "ever" in this kind of position where it's just me up there, it would be a tremendous comfort knowing that "you" were talking me down to a successful landing. How cool was this? A typical passenger safely landing a huge plane like that? Surely you can't be serious!

I’m curious too from MSFS, but I have to wonder how a sim player would fare, particularly one that has several 737 pilots as friends who take great enjoyment from mixing drinking games with teaching me. (Hey, I’m at least as good as a drunk pilot. 🤣)I wonder how a simmer who is used to receiving an endless stream of instructions would fare. It actually reminds me of a conversation we had once when they had to go for their mandatory retraining and testing and one jokingly lamented that they couldn’t just dress me in one of their uniforms and smuggle me in to play. My immediate response was to remark that they’d just laugh as I panic and I would probably set a new world record for how many times the word “f**k” would be recorded on a CVR if the simulator had one. 😆 Good times.

This video made me a bit emotional. I think about all of the hard work, innovation, and all of the accidents, mishaps, and tragedies, that all contributed to the design, the technology, the procedures and training that have resulted in a marvel like this aircraft and the crews that fly them - it is truly inspiring!

I see people pointing out the difference in how Petter and Tom arranged the two landings in their videos, and I feel that the way Petter did it definitely makes it more positive feeling cuz of the successful landing being the one that the video ended on. Very nice of you!

Even in the crashed attempt, it was still surviveable since the speed wasn't high when he crashed. Everyone should survive the impact, it just comes down to what happens after the crash. If a fire breaks loose, that's not good.

It's worth noting that the simulator treats hard landings and landings outside the runway as a crash, even if it's surviveable.

I once tried that ... Couldn't get the manual landing right but let me tell 10 years of flight simulator games HELPs a lot ... Already knew all the autopilot settings and ILS procedures but my God getting yourself follow the glide slope and localizer and timing the flare isn't easy! I didn't butter it ... I made the Ryanair signature! If you have no experience at ALL Tom did quite well manually!

Hey I get you there. 🤣 When I was just about getting to the stage where I could land mostly reliably when playing MSFS and only broke the landing gear once every so often I would remark that I must have some Ryanair in me… which amused and annoyed some of my friends who seemed to take great fun from teaching me mixed in with the drinking game, depending on which airline they flew for. It was simple enough. We’d sit around my tv and Xbox in my living room and take turns landing, each competing to do it the best. But, for every successful landing the player would have to drink a shot. Except for me. It still takes awhile even now but eventually it levels the playing field. But until that time I have the benefit of between four and six pilots talking me through it. The only downside is that sometimes I have to remind them to talk one at a time or they’ll overload my poor little groundling mind. But once it gets to the point where they’re either breaking the landing gear, going on runway excursions and stuff like that I don’t bother with the exemption from the shots and chaos ensues until I struggle to program the sim. Then it’s tv time until either home time or they pass out on my sofa. I’m sure it’s vastly accelerated my progress, but all the same I’m perfectly content to keep my feet on the ground and play MSFS with the same bullheaded stubbornness of any Soulslike player. 😆 It’s also a lot of fun if occasionally exasperating.

Ryanair really isn't that bad, But some every day PILOTS are ! I've had more smooth landings with Ryanair, than I had with 'Turkish Airlines' or even KLM ! 'Bad Ryanair Landings' are just a MEME !

"I made the Ryanair signature!" Probably what I would do. Safer to put the thing down than to overdo the butter, float up up and away, and stall out 30 feet above the ground.

I was following Tom before I followed you, but your announcement had me filled with joy for both episodes! I think I would have gone around. A thing I first learned in KSP: When you're at an angle to the runway you want to aim for a point halfway to the runway, not at the start of the runway, otherwise you'd have to turn while landing!

Watching the video it struck me how having a diagram of the cockpit instruments for the aircraft in question is something that is almost essential for a successful landing when giving manual instructions to a passenger.

My appreciation for pilots has grown now more. It takes a lot of skill, concentration, patience and problem solving skills to fly. Very well explanation given to Tom to fly. Well done Peter. Also well done Tom for the performance given. Even if it crashed at least some people might have been saved because you were at the airport.
