[@ravennightingale1260]

The rest of the world could really learn a lot from aviation. The fact that two planes getting close but not colliding is a whole incident that generates procedure changes is how it should be. Imagine if we treated car collisions this way.

⁠@@cfromnowherenuclear power is literally the safest form of electricity production in terms of having the lowest fatalities. The only reason nuclear meltdowns occur is when energy companies intentionally ignore safety recommendations for immediate profits. This is all too common across the power generation industry wherein some board makes recommendations, those recommendations get ignored, and years later a disaster occurs. For example, Fukushima could have been avoided if they followed a 2004 report, and the Texas power grid meltdown could have been avoided if they followed a 2011 federal report.

Now I'm afraid of flying.

[@dominaevillae28]

There are thousands of flights that happen per day in the US alone. The likelihood of a serious accident from a maintenance problem or pilot error is really low. What I’m actually worried about are all the vaccine damaged pilots having heart attacks, even dying mid-flight.

[@Rohbar]

As somone living in Überlingen I find it amazing how much better the pilots are trained nowadays to react to TCAS notifications. It should be really pointed out how important it is that the pilots have to ignore the ATC instructions in this case, as the mid-air collision here has shown what can happen otherwise.

[@obroberts6533]

Oops, there wasn't a mid~air in this account, thank God.

[@nickv4073]

Mentour did point this out.

[@Reewen]

There was a midair collision with two aircraft where one had followed the ATCs commands and the other followed TCAS. I think it was after that accident when they made it a rule to follow TCAS over ATC Edit: The incident I was talking about was between DHL flight 611 and Bashkirian Airlines Flight 2937, it also happened in Überlingen. Back then Flight 2937 had to decide themselves whether to follow ATC or TCAS instructions. A very sad accident especially because there were so many children aboard Flight 2937 Edit 2: Turns out it may already have been intended for TCAS to overrule ATC before this accident but it was somewhat ambiguous in the operating manuals

[@gerhardschneider7506]

@@Reewen I remember this accident very well. That was the first time I heard of the TCAS System.

[@michaelhanson3739]

Just to add to this with the new A320NX their recommendations for a tcas RA is let the autopilot fly it. We still do it manually for fleet commonality as the NX is the only plane that has this capability as of now.

[@dogcarman]

What a fascinating investigation this must have been. Everybody did well but there was still an incident. And the outcome is perfect - noone did anything wrong so noone was blamed. Instead procedures were considered and changed to the benefit of all future pax and crew. 👍

[@MentourPilot]

Exactly!!

[@kilozulu9990]

How was the outcome perfect when the core issue was not resolved because CDG operational manual was not updated (or at least @MentourPilot didn't mention it being updated) to suspend simultaneous landing/takeoff procedure when crosswind is greater than 25 knots, just like it is the case with simultaneous takeoffs? That would be a perfect outcome.

[@goldreserve]

Take-off and landings in unison on near parallel runways during wind-shear/extreme weather run the risk of collision. It required 3 previous incidents and an STCA before anyone acted. Some might say the CAA weren't doing their job properly. Or it doesn't matter because it was only a near miss?

[@stanislavkostarnov2157]

I feel the fact these parallel runway operations were allowed on Paris CDG should be considered something of an issue... If this had ended badly I do not think those who thought through, signed on, the double runway procedure would have been considered totally blameless.

[@jennymulholland4319]

​@@kilozulu9990 at 25:55 it mentions reviewing these types of operations. That review will almost certainly lead to changes to airport procedures. It makes sense to do a full review though and not just jump to conclusions about which procedures should be changed and how. There were multiple factors involved in this close call incident, including the intercom connection with Le Bourget airport being inoperative. Everything needs to be looked at again carefully.

As it should honestly. It still upsets me that the überlingen mid-air collision happened when apparently a year before that, something akin to it nearly happened in Japan (i couldn't remember the specifics). It could've been the worst aviation disaster defeating tenerife by the sheer amount of lost lives and if i remember correctly, the two planes were so close they were only some meters apart. If only the ICAO enforced laws about the ambiguity of TCAS vs ATC then, überlingen mightve never happened. But I'm glad how it is now and I hope different fields would do the same thing the world of aviation is doing instead of finger pointing.

[@Mike-oz4cv]

One tends to think of air as this thin, insubstantial gas but when you step out in a thunderstorm you are suddenly reminded how thick and strong our atmosphere is. No wonder aircraft can basically float on it if they create enough lift through speed and wings.

Understanding is key to conquering fear. Most who are afraid of flying know very little about it. Your appreciation for how well trained these crews are will only increase the more you learn.

[@SpidaMez]

Seems like the airport design was a set up for failure, cant imagine how stressful that was. Great video

[@Eurobazz]

Yes indeed. Why were the airport planners allowed to get away with it?

[@thetowndrunk988]

What, exactly, is wrong with the design of the airport? It’s the ninth busiest airport in the world, and the third busiest in Europe. Since it’s opened, there have only been 3 crashes at the airport, none of which were caused by the airport design. Getting the exemption for twin runway operation, without all factors taken into account, was the issue, and not the design of the airport.

[@Eurobazz]

@@thetowndrunk988 From a passenger perspective, it's an awful airport. Don't forget that in the early morning hours of May 23, 2004, a portion of the newly inaugurated terminal 2E collapsed, killing four people. The collapse near Gate E50 happened without any warning killing two Chinese citizens, one from the Czech Republic and one from Lebanon. Three other people near Gate 50E suffered injuries but survived the shocking event.

TCAS seems to be a very efficient and well designed system

[@ImperialJustinian]

when it first came out, there were no clear guidelines on whether ATC or TCAS had priority. Then there was a near miss in Japan (that still put people in hospital it was that close) and an actual mid-air collision over Germany where one plane obeyed the ATC and the other obeyed TCAS. That's the reason they now have TCAS take priority.

[@UnimportantAcc]

@@ImperialJustinian Wow! When you look at it in hindsight it seems like a no brainer to have the local TCAS take priority, forget about whatever is happening elsewhere... But then I suppose historically ATC had always been the most important communicator, and people were very hesitant to change that.

[@sandrakiss8711]

Others have said it but better help is awful. They have some horrible therapists and sell your data. There’s a few videos on it if you look it up

[@spud-from-Nam]

As always, an excellent video. I would like to point out, that for me, the music was too intrusive at times. Thank you.

[@katel8588]

Im glad someone else said this. Loved the video, but the background music was really distracting at times

[@heidirabenau511]

This was almost Überlingen all over again, thank goodness it wasn't.

[@NicolaW72]

Indeed.

[@Thorz74]

I have just recently found your channel. I have binged the Air Crash Investigation series several times already, now I am in binge mode on your channel. This content is amazing! Thank you.

[@skyewindsor9418]

Thank you Mentour Pilot for another amazing video! Your positive demeanor and inquisitiveness are such a gift to the world

[@Screamblade_]

AYYY more content! Thank you so very much for the upload. Hopefully all is ok where you are

[@wism881]

Outstanding production quality this time around. Really well done. Thanks!

[@user-li7ec3fg6h]

Thank you very much for the very good explanations! As allways! Happy landings and come safe home alltimes!

[@stritz511]

Great coverage as usual!! Thank You!!!

[@kentslocum]

This was a great episode, particularly because the flight crews and air traffic controller were mostly not at fault for the incident. It's a great exomple of just how important proper system design is in preventing incidents.

[@michman2]

This channel is a gift, Petter. Thank you for another great dissertation.

[@vasilisiatropoulos3474]

Excellent. Even non aviators can comprehend what you're talking about

[@LMacNeill]

That TCAS system is one of the best things ever invented!

[@kingakirari960]

Happy to be among the first few viewers. From all the videos I have watched I think am a qualified pilot flying😂😂

[@robinmclaren221]

Yet another quality video that leaves me hungry for more! Thank you Petter and team and I look forward to the next one!

[@fauxpinkytoo]

Peter, I do love your content. And it is so satisfying to watch a video where disaster has been averted. Great job, sir.

[@belindastreet135]

A sweaty moment for the ATC no doubt

[@dew9103]

haven't watched the video yet, as soon as you mentioned paris, I immediately thought of your united and easyjet near miss you made a video on earlier

[@MentourPilot]

Well remembered!

[@Ali_ON3]

Bravo Petter and the whole crew behind this video! Amazing presentation, graphics and editing. You have knocked it out of the park. Best wishes for u and the team😊

[@VikPha-ne2sj]

As usual the content of the video is simplified, detailed and very well sorted. But what I liked most about this video is the graphical presentation. The way TCAS is explained and the way drift of Hop air is shown , I just loved it. That's great improvement. 👍

[@susiejones3634]

Thank you, Petter and MenTour team! You all work so hard to bring us these excellent videos. Much appreciated. ❤

[@TiptronicSS]

Another absolutely fantastic video. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the video, it felt more like a 5min video than a 30m video 😅

[@paulmaxwell8851]

It's nice to see you say something in support of better mental health via the Betterhelp sponsorship. Mental health is something we just don't talk enough about. Great, informative video as always! Cheers from Canada.

[@oldnepalihippie]

Finally a feel good news story. Thx, this made my day.

[@win7sony]

Anyone else notice the EasyJet A330 at 21:54?

[@heidirabenau511]

Look very weird.

[@marclapin]

yeah i was wondering if anyone noticed that very cursed plane

[@NathanChambers]

Great video, as always! Hope you're having a great day!

[@MentourPilot]

Thanks! You too! 💕

[@egvijayanand]

Takeoff clearance of A320 should have been delayed by 10 seconds to allow ERJ170 to land safely in the crosswind condition.

[@user-li7ec3fg6h]

May be that only the plane in approch know all about?

[@douglascarpenter468]

Two short flights that could have been replaced by train journeys. Fewer flights = fewer tcas? Excellent programme as ever

[@NicolaW72]

It was obviously the time of the Corona-Pandemia. There were never fewer flights in the Air since the Second World War at the time of this incident when this happened - and so few as we will very probably not see for a very long time to come. So too much flights was not the problem here.

[@josephemmanuel3206]

I was literally waiting for next video! Pretty excited.. let me watch now! 😄

[@Godson-st6cp]

Your update makes my day every time

[@MentourPilot]

Thanks for being here! 🥰

[@TRG87M2]

“At 10:17 clearance to runway 36 left“. Small edit needed. Great videos as always.
