I’m a retired Corporate Pilot and I’ve flown over Cuba at least 4 times , I’ve landed at St. Martin Airport many times and I’ve stood at the beach watching planes landing. It’s an awesome site. If you do proper planning there should be no issues. I’m now 71yo and I miss flying very much.

MOA's can be overflown with permission of the control tower if no military activity is planned. In 2000 my wife and I flew from Vegas to Oakland to visit our daughter. Flight was delayed for close to an hour. But after takeoff we arrived at Oakland a half hour late. After landing I had the opportunity to talk with the co-pilot and asked how the time was made up. He said while on the ground in Vegas he called Nellis AFB tower and got permission for the flight to transverse the MOA. He said that allowed them to fly a more direct flight.

I have always read a lot about aviation. While my dad and I were on an airliner about 30 years ago, the jet hit some rough turbulence. My dad saw the wings flapping and went green. Attempting to comfort him, I told him "The wings of this craft can flap about 17.5 degrees before snapping off." He informed me that was not helping him, and he didn't want me to speak for the rest of the flight.

In the summer of 1980 I was flying from San Francisco to Anchorage with a stop in Seattle. Unfortunately I have forgotten which airline although Northwest Airlines is a possibility, as their pilots often played the role of tour guide pointing out many features below over the PA system, especially on this route. It was a clear early evening flight, and in those days it was not at all unusual for airlines to fly mostly empty with very few passengers, so there may have been only 15 or 20 of us on this flight, possibly a 727 or similar plane. Recall that the Mt. St. Helens eruption had occurred that May. As we headed towards Washington state, the pilot announced that he would give us a real treat and asked everyone to move to a window seat on the left side of the plane. At that point he put the plane into a steep, left banking 360° turn, giving us a clear view straight down into the massive crater left after Mt. St. Helens blew its top completely off. With being able to see into the jaw of this massive hole, while severely banked over in a commercial airliner like never before or since, it was the most thrilling plane ride I ever had in my life. Not to mention, in those days everyone got a three course hot meal with a split of wine and real silverware.

[@yangster4679]

3:07 Yes that would be the case for the jet fuel used in USA called Jet A (freezes at or below -40 °C or −40 °F), and the jet fuel almost the rest of the world uses called Jet A-1 (freezes at or below -47 °C or -53 °F). However, there is also Jet-B (freezes at or below −60 °C or -76 °F) which is used for its enhanced cold-weather performance.

[@owenwest01]

Generally a fuel additives like prist are put in the fuel as well

[@ChazmillsADLT]

[@MaraIndigoJade]

It wasn't that they didn't know where they were, it was the fact that they were IN an active volcano caldera! Kinda tough to rescue people that close to a pool of HOT magma! Since aircraft were out of the question (like another helicopter), you couldn't just bring a ladder up there, chuck it down and call it a day. Also in addition to heat, you have swirling air currents/winds with dangerous/deadly gases! And then, on top of everything, you have an active volcano that could blow at any time! So, yeah, not your everyday rescue op.

Thimphu I agree with. Gibraltar though, not so much. HGVs aren't all too common on Winston Churchill Avenue (the road crossing LXGB). Any car wouldn't do much to an aircraft like an A320, and if security noticed someone attempting to cross during landing for example, they could either order ATC to call for a go around, or, well... go straight though them. The only risk being parts ingested by the engines of course. Not a bad suggestion though

In June of 1966, my family was flying to New Jersey from Texas, Austin Texas to be exact. When JFK was killed in Dallas in 1963, Governor John Connally was also shot. The day we were flying out, suddenly there were men with guns on the runway. Then a black limo drove out and several people got out. While my father seldom went to NJ with us, this year he did. He leaned over and told us that one of the men was the Governor. He and his party took over the last few rows of seats and we were bumped into first class. It only takes an hour to fly from Austin to Dallas, but after we were in the air, one of Connally's people came up and invited my father and mother to met with them. It was because my father was known to the Governor. So, not exactly scary, but it seems that after being shot in '63, Connally always flew in the back of planes - at least while he was still Governor.

While commercial flying holds no fears for me, as I regard it as a boring bus ride just with wings, I also always have ear problems. I get high internal pressure at higher altitudes, making me basically deaf until it clears. I greatly enjoy flying on small planes, that stay lower in altitude.

[@swithinbarclay4797]

Please consider how flight deck and cabin crews must deal with these ear issues (if any!) every day of their entire careers, that can span decades, per individual in-sky airline worker. WHAT does account for their "immunity" from the issues that affect the rest of us mere "mortal" schlubs?? Plus, for the militaries, pilots must be expected to execute their workaday flying exercises as each and everyone of those exercises were a "piece of cake". Could you, "Revell",possibly believe that these people (professional flyers), somehow must be bred differently from the rest of us? They have ground-bound families, and, more or less "conventional" lives, just like the rest of us. Could some "slip of reason", have affected Orville Wright, that fateful day, when he soared to 30' above the ground for 13 seconds, about 119 years ago? And he accomplished this feat, just wearing his regular street clothes, with no helmet, nor body armor, nor pressure suit. Pressurization of an airline cabin does not affect me as much as it must affect you.

[@westzed23]

@@swithinbarclay4797 I suppose your body adjusts to these differences. You mention the Wright flight with no idea of what they were going to experience. When train travel started, there was concern that the passengers would not be able to get up and walk around. It's amazing to see how speed was of concern in the earliest times. It was something so new that their imaginations could not think of all the probabilities that could happen. And, this still concerns us today in any new experience with different modes of transport. I am glad that physics needs to continuously be studied and investigated in all new endeavors. And others are probably glad that I am not one of those physicists. (I have discalculia)

You mentioned turbulence a few times, and I went thru the worst air that probably 99% of people have never experienced. On an L1011 coming home to Indy from Las Vegas. We were over the Rocky Mountains when the plane became a roller coaster. Those up or without belts on had a very rough go. We were going up/down in 200 feet gulps. The oxygen mask actually deployed. They were swinging around so much it was hard to grab one. Some of the overhead bin doors opened and now luggage was added to the chaos. We descended and it got WORSE. Only by climbing above did we get out of it. We diverted to Denver Int and landed safely. They grounded the jet pending an inspection and they transferred us to another.

FYI - the average air temperature at a height of 30,000 ft is about -45C, so a plane would not avoid an area just because the surface temperature could get that cold. Fuel tanks are insulated.

[@mottoth]

And and BA 777 encountered highly unusual cruise temps around -70°c above the european part of Russia, which formed fuel pellets that eventually blocked the supply line.

[@spdaltid]

Fuel tanks are not insulated. At airline cruise levels, the coldest temperature over a given area is usually at the tropopause. The height and temperature of the tropopause vary. Height is generally lower in polar regions and higher in equatorial regions. Lowest temperatures are usually found in equatorial areas well above the flight levels used by airliners. Depending on performance capability, at high latitudes it may then be possible to climb into warmer air to counter fuel freezing. Other options such as increasing Mach No [higher compression of the air = higher temperature], descending or re-routing are also possible, but lead to greater fuel burn rate and the possibility of not reaching the scheduled destination airport.

There are some aircraft (like some A340s) that actually have the same oxygen bottles for passengers that the pilots have, as the chemical oxygen generators don’t last long enough to descend. Qantas 747s had these too, because one of them blew up and, ironically, caused a rapid depressurisation, so some aircraft do fly over the Himalayas out of necessity.

[@spdaltid]

[@spdaltid]

Most long range aircraft utilise gaseous oxygen to provide a longer supply time. While the bottles are similar, the pilot/passenger systems are separate. Passenger chemical oxygen generators are fitted instead of the gaseous system as a manufacturer option on some aircraft depending on operational requirements - it is a bit cheaper and lighter. With only approximately 22mins of oxygen supply, chemically equipped aircraft could not descend to a safe unpressurised cabin altitude if over widespread high terrain such as the Himalayas.

Also, in higher points in the atmosphere, doesn't the air get thinner, thus planes needing more fuel to maintain altitude? Also, where i live in the UK we have had both volcanic ash and Saharan sand on our window sills and doors due to storms. Couldn't Copter Crater be fenced and filled with landfill?

[@57Jimmy]

Not sure about the higher fuel burn. The atmosphere is thinner at elevation thereby reducing drag which is why they fly at those heights.

[@raymondwald5864]

Flying at higher elevations use less fuel because there is less air resistance.

[@fromagefrizzbizz9377]

A bit late but ... jet engines are a bit like car engines in that there is an optimal fuel/air mixture. When an engine is starving for air, adding fuel to the mix doesn't help because the added fuel won't burn. Copter crater is 4000' in diameter and 1700' feed deep. Fencing it in won't do anything for aircraft and there aren't a lot of people around. Fillng that thing would be a VERY EXPENSIVE operation. Besides, the Grand Canyon in places can have very strange wind patterns, should we fill it up too?

I have once had a flight over tibet in a small single prop plane. If there would have been an emergency landing, we would have been lost. The worst flight experiences, i ever had were commercial russian domestic flights in the far east.

7:22 Good job attempting that name. I don’t know if it was correct or not, but it sounded, if not right, at least close. I’m always happy when people at least try. It honors those that natively speak that language and named these locations instead of disregarding their language.

I live in Arlington, 10 minutes away from DCA and also 10/15 minutes away from the White House depending on traffic. There isn’t 30 miles between the airport and the White House. And depending what side you fly in from you can see the White House on your left hand side

The temperature reason is interesting considering that when airliners are at cruise altitude they are flying in -40 F or colder!

[@nicholasholmes1675]

This comes back to the engine use part. At lower altitudes the engines work harder to keep running with same force. At higher altitudes, plane engines run at the highest RPMs due to lower air density but work at higher efficiency. In other words, the engines are way less hot at lower temps than higher ones

[@The-Logician]

I love the irony of the Mirny Mine segment talking about how planes never fly over it, when the centerline of runway 07/29 of the Mirny airport is within 100 meters of the open hole.

[@philvanderlaan5942]

40% of Americans have a fear of flying 3 of those people are me. ( yes I have a 120% fear of flying) Water in fuel is a major problem, but usually it’s just a foreign non flammable material in the fuel , as a mechanic in the middle one of my duties was to does fuel samples, which was mostly seeing how much water was in the fuel as due to pressure problems fuel tanks are vented so air with water vapor enter and condense in the fuel , sometimes I had samples that were half water and had to drain of gallons of fuel before I had acceptable fuel. ( the water is heavier than the fuel and the sample is taken from the bottom of the tank at a sump that hopefully collects all of the water. )

Im actually kinda curious, why would one be afraid of planes

[@philvanderlaan5942]

@@ur.universalmemer if you have an experience with aircraft mechanics you know how one little problem can cause major consequences some are mechanical, some are aircrew error , some are due to the facilities at the airport some are due to ATC error, and some are due to multiple causes at once ( Tenerife 1977 583 fatalities from a collision on the runway)

The Tibetan plateau while Temps and updrafts do play a part, it's also if there was an emergency, the nearest diverting airport is often hours away, and there isn't any terrain where you could put the plane down with any success. If you were able to put your plane down, typically any rescue would be on foot.

Mount Everest isn't the tallest mountain it ijust has the highest elevation. The tallest mountain is Mauna Kea from its under water base (key col level) to it's peak.

Mountains aren't tall they're high, a tree can be tall (as large height and thin). Even worse was the phrase "tallest place in the world", mountains and the Tibetan plateau making tall even more of a nonsense

To me, measuring a mountain from its underwater base is like measuring a penis from the butt hole.

BTW, aircraft cabin air is drawn in through the engines, and passed through coolers and HVAC systems. In the 80s HEPA filtering wasn't a thing, and that's why the volcanic ash got into the cabin.

Temperatures at 40,000 feet, a typical altitude for long range routes, run from -40 C to -60 C. Tibet is not different at that altitude.

[@durban6276]

Then there are temporary scary places, like hurricanes. Living in south Louisiana I've flown near enough to hurricanes to see how big and scary they look, for real (wasn't too happy to fly near Mt St Helens while there was still visible plume, either). Not sure to what altitude hurricanes can affect planes, but video inside the hurricane hunters' planes indicate you need a strong stomach and lack of rational fears.

At altitude on polar flights, the temperature outside the aircraft is routinely -70C or colder. So I’m dubious that pilots are afraid to fly above Tibet because it’s cold.

[@jenbill]

Agreed average Fahrenheit temperature at 39,000 ft was -58 below zero on a recent flight from California to Philippines so even in warm climates flights experience extreme atmosphere conditions at cruising altitude

[@chrissymoss514]

Planes don't "actively fly", a plane is flown. Pilots make calculated decisions, not planes 🙈
