Mistakes you survive are some of the best learning opportunities.

[@workingguy6666]

She did not seem like she cared to call the tower to even learn of what the problem could have been. She was too focused on getting back to the runway. Doesn't matter the language or culture, something is wrong with her head.

[@TheGospelQuartetParadise]

Amateurs [trainees] practice till they get it right. Professionals [pilots] do it so often they never get it wrong.

[@LowEarthOrbitPilot]

Working Guy : My sense is that she is young, and was slightly panicked, initially not understanding what it was she had done for her T/O clearance to be rescinded, and, while stopping to copy the number for the tower, she can clearly be heard exclaiming, “Oh my God!” ... a pretty good indication she suddenly realized her transgression, instantly felt embarrassed and ashamed, did not want to get in trouble for the mistake, and likely worried if it might destroy her dream of a career in aviation. It’s a teachable moment, which galvanizes the need to be meticulous. I hope she is very resilient, and does well solving her dreams. We obviously all want to fly knowing that every other pilot is just as meticulous to the discipline of aviation as we are, but remember what it was like when we first began, and encourage those who make mistakes to learn from it, move beyond it, and never give up.

[@ItsAllAboutGuitar]

I've made plenty of mistakes, but not this bad and nothing that put people's lives in danger. Runway incursion avoidance is a big one. Ya gotta have your head in the game, this is a potential if someone's on short final.

[@bogdan_n]

@@ItsAllAboutGuitar How did this in any way put people's lives in danger? Were you there when it happened? Did she just nicked the hold short line (which is still an offense, but that line is at least 50ft away from the runway), or did she actually entered the runway, getting in the path of incoming aircrafts? Or maybe her mistake could scare incoming aircraft pilots into shock which could lead to a crash?

[@Thillith]

@@bogdan_n As stated by VASaviaton we have no data on how much she crossed the line. Could be a meter could be right next to runway. But as incoming aircraft canceled his own approach and declared a go around because of traffic on the runway she obviously went a lot over the line.

[@bogdan_n]

@@Thillith legally speaking, if an aircraft is even 1 inch on the hold short line, it occupies the runway, so no inbound aircraft is allowed to land, but that doesn't necessarily mean that people's lives are in danger. It's like a STOP sign on the road, placed 20m before the intersection (because that's the only place it could have been put). Legally, if you don't stop before the sign, it's a violation, but, practically, you don't put anyone in danger. And a few months ago, Premier1Driver has been reported to the FAA by someone who saw in one of his videos that he called "runway vacated" on the CTAF before actually passing the line, on an UNCONTROLLED AIRFIELD!!! I don't know if that dumbass reported the other pilot who lined up on the runway when P1D was on his landing roll, too. Being current (or legal) is one thing, being proficient is 'a bit' more than that.

[@kikastra]

I don't think that the animation is accurate as to how far she crossed the line, as the animation shows her barely past it. I highly doubt her position depicted in the animation would cause the other pilot to go around. I would say she was was either on the runway or very close to it.

very patient and nice controller! when a controller yells at a student pilot, it's more likely just to make things worse since they are already overwhelmed at the time, which probably led to the mistake in the first place. communication with ATC is already pretty intimidating for new pilots, so its nice as a student when ATC is calm and patient.

Yeah. If that had been me, I'd have taxied back to the hangar and put it up for the day in order to get my head right. Everyone has bad days, which is probably what it was for this obviously student pilot, but a bad day is not normally one you want to fly on. Crossing the hold short bars can happen to anyone. I almost did it once because I let my foot up on the brake a bit while looking at the checklist (my plane doesn't have a functional parking brake). But crossing the bars, not understanding ATC, and not understanding the error you made are all red flags that it's just not your day and maybe that some additional dual training is required.

[@phapnui]

Nah, you gots to get back on the horse. When I was on a solo flight in a helicopter, I over-reved the throttle and the governor cut the engine and I had my first solo autorotation. After I landed in the grass and shut everything down, my instructor flew over in another helicopter and told me to continue. I got back in and everything was uneventful. This was in 1969, and our class had some of the first modified Mattel Messerschmidts with the engine governors. They were wicked and really slammed the throttle on the collective. I heard rumors of a student pilot crashing and burning when he had too hard a grip on throttle and broke his wrist when the governor kicked in. Lots of incidents and fatalities in Army primary flight school. One student died when he entered ground resonance and ship vibrated apart. Another student and instructor died when student applied wrong pedal on an autorotation. But overall the training was excellent but not for the faint hearted. It helped me get through a tour in one piece. I felt confident in combat. Less so for politics and military strategy. Both got a lot of us killed.

[@MyTube4Utoo]

Weird. I always thought "hold short of the runway" was optional.

[@Da-Creams]

She's lost

[@udalix]

So the pilot had to taxi down the runway, exit and taxi back around to the hold bar again, to take off? I get recognizing the mistake but makes more sense to acknowledge it but just continue the take off.

[@takingthescenicroute1610]

There is an unmentioned factor here. One plane already initiated a go-around. That means that plane is now climbing out on runway heading at TOGA power, instead of landing, and casting vortices down towards the runway. It's not safe to allow anyone to takeoff immediately when such conditions exist over the runway. A few minutes are needed for the wake to clear.

Radio is most likely fine. It's probably the location of the receiver. I'm sure once she was in the air the transmissions would have come in loud and clear.

[@iatsd]

That's someone recording the radio traffic. It's no reflection on the quality of comms the tower and aircraft have.

[@mynameisray]

@Dusty 99 - Soo.. You tell me to educate myself, but can't answer the question. Seems 100% legit. They shouldn't have even been given clearance to taxi with a radio that isn't even audible. Now jog on, you beatnik.

[@ltldn]

@@mynameisray I think you're missing the point. The transmissions were recorded from outside the airport by someone with an airband receiver, which just happened to be within range of the tower, but not the plane. The tower is high off the ground (along with its antennas), therefore you clearly can receive tower signals from a good distance away from the airport. Radio transmissions from the plane however, at least while on the ground, will not travel nearly as far (think obstacles like buildings, hills, trees and such blocking the signal). From the perspectives of the plane and the tower, their transmissions to each other will come through crystal clear - no radio issues. But for the listener (making the recordings), the signal from the plane is very weak and unintelligible, but if they moved closer to the airport they would be able to hear the plane much better.

[@bogdan_n]

@@ltldn Don't bother. For some people it's impossible to fathom the intricacies and limitations of VHF radio.

[@ele4853]

I would've had her call the number prior to continue. Nobody has to endure having tower busy explaining things over the radio and get their flight delayed because of that. She violated the rules. Get her out, she makes the call, learn the lesson on her privacy with whoever, then come back to taxi again. All the other pilots that respect the rules thank that approach.

Well, ATC nor pilots are the final decision in what happened. The investigative body does that, so it could come down to a number of things. Was she on the bars, what she fully past them, was the incoming pilots being overzealous and felt encroached upon? That's why the experienced people are there and working people through it. People like you who pass judgement at the moment and call it final to say you can do no more because of a mistake are a problem in aviation.

I teach a course called Theory of Knowledge and there is a concept called the Curse of Knowledge. It is a cognitive bias that suggests that we have a hard time understanding why someone doesn't know what we know. In other words, once you know something, and are proficient at it, it's very easy to forget what it is like to NOT know that thing. I have to remind myself of this when teaching students--it might be the fiftieth time I've talked about this concept, but for them, it's the first. Part of the learning process.

Just like driving a car for the first time and you didn't press in the clutch far enough whilst trying to shift. It happens, it slaps your face, but it'll teach you immediately on what to do next time. She's a student pilot for a reason, I'm certain the tower is aware of the fact she's a student pilot, probably flew out there with an instructor and she may very well be familiar with the area.

I had had difficulty in communicating through the radio and also had a fear of talking to ATC, but they were always there being patient and calm no matter how I messed up. That doesn’t mean unprofessional as you can see in the video. They always do their best on their duty but in a manner of extremely considering. Thanks for them I always take off with confidence and that means a lot when I’m flying in SoCal, one of the busiest airspace in the country as far as I know. Feel sorry for what happened to the student pilot but I’m sure that everyone including myself learns and grows a step forward from mistakes so hope she would just consider this as an epic lesson out of the classroom!

What's the location of this field and their normal workload?

[@greatocean9944]

@@martintheiss4038 It's in San Diego,CA. High workload with numerous GA traffic.

[@williamcavanaugh5460]

That’s why Gillespie is better in my opinion! Less traffic volume and it is closer to East practice area ;)

[@josephculbertson1108]

This was a heartwarming set of transmissions. Three cheers for both pilots that had to go-around, the stress management from tower, and the kind and understanding ground controller.

Student: “ so I can’t fly anymore?” Ground Super: “No Ma’am. Never again. Get off my taxiway.”

[@rockcrawler3119]

Lol!!! That comment just made my night😁

[@OZf1re]

Proceeds to taxi to GA parking via the grass as they have been told not to use the taxiway

[@Sky_Burger88]

BLACKMONGOOSE13 Haha ! Thats what he should have said.

[@karlhungus1569]

I say let’s go with her suggestion.

[@VesperTV_]

Well, she requested a new taxi route to the runway and he just wanted to explain the situation she did. Could have been over the phone, no? Seems like public shaming

[@rizzeau]

If I were the pilot, I'd probably taxi back to parking and debrief what happened. I think I'd be too shook up from the deviation to continue for the day.

[@captaincl3165]

Too dramatic

[@ryandiedrich6317]

If that would shake you up probably best you stay on the ground......

[@rizzeau]

@@ryandiedrich6317 yeah. probably. Student pilots that cant manage to control their plane on the ground should taxi back and try again.

[@2Phast4Rocket]

Agree. If you feel you are stressed because you made a mistake, just taxi back and discuss the issue with the instructor. Life is long and you can always fly another day.

[@ellisjames7192]

Park the airplane and debrief so she understand what she did.

[@charlieinsingapore]

I go now, good luck everybody else

[@detaart]

LOL! I was actually thinking of that one when i first heard the voice!

[@Chillymak]

Great family guy reference

[@12yearssober]

BAM!!!!!!

[@StickA-yd4fp]

Beat me to it. Came here for this comment!

[@ronaldscott781]

“You go now! Not come back!!” (Overheard at a Chinese all you can eat buffet)

[@applec2400]

Honestly for about a minute I was wondering if the other plane at C was ever going to move...

[@byronhenry6518]

I was instructing a student one time when a Navy student flying a king air cut us off on final and we went around. It was an uncontrolled field and everyone was making our calls. I said I was going around due to traffic on short final and the Navy guy was like “Ah shit, sorry” lol
