THIS YouTuber Reveals a SECRET!

[@PaulRubino]

I'm a retired air traffic controller and i never miss a Hoover video. He really is the best.

[@barbarachambers7974]

Hoover always treats each debrief with kindness and compassion to the people he is talking about. This is one thing I respect the most about him.

[@SoulRocketMan]

Really? I can hear arrogance in his voice.

[@jeffro221]

@@SoulRocketMan Virtually everybody else considers him very humble. But I guess fragile people see arrogance.

[@ele4853]

From all the youtube channels about aircraft accidents I now only watch Hoover's videos. He is the best. Humble guy, not aggressive, respectful of the victims, best analyst out there. I watch every single one. I have a PPL license. I have designed 3 aircraft myself and now I fly my RV-8 also built by myself. I always learn something from Hoover's videos. The best!

[@billythekid3234]

Ele..... I agree with with you,, however please leave some room for Juan Brown? He's also want's to make flying as safe as possible!

[@pocho689]

‘Mentour Pilot’ is a must watch. Very articulate, respectful, informative and insightful commentary by a pilot.

[@reyesben]

The fact you built and fly your own RV eight makes you much cooler than Hoover Brown or mentor pilot

[@FrigginCatsBruh]

Disaster Breakdown and Green Dot Aviation are great too, though I don't think either are pilots.

[@enshk79]

And I can barely make a sandwich.

[@libertine5606]

Hoover's channel is the best! He spends more time than the others going into the ADM that led to the mishap. He takes a military approach to the incidents and I think this is the most important part of any incident. Kudos to him!

[@TheFiremanJJSpangler]

One of the most important factors for me when Hoover does a Debrief, it's done in a way that can and DOES teach everything we need to know and understand to be the best we can be WITHOUT leaving us projecting these incidents into our own experience. Something as simple as simple as saying or even thinking "I hope our wing doesn't come off" can project that incident into our flight and subconsciously making that, or something within our control happen. Hoover, you remind me very much of my cousin... similar career path just about 10 earlier. He just retired from a major airline flying A320-A380's, and though I have MANY friends from the Airforce Academy, personalities differ greatly, however you and my cousin approach flying the same with the same personality. Every pilot should be grateful for all you do! I am, so thank you!

[@bertg.6056]

Hoover is the real deal. His channel on YT is outstanding. He is outstanding as well.

[@gabsmoscow]

I wish this humble and amazing pilot all the success he deserves

[@mikemccarron1162]

I talked with Hoover at osh after the KZbin meet up and my son, flys for delta, was lucky to start just prior to him, pre-covid and had 2 weeks into training and was able to stay on for the whole Covid debacle to air out. He is a great presenter of his content.

[@LCafran]

I really enjoy Hoover’s channel. So we’ll done! Thank you for interviewing him.

[@jdjeep98]

I'm a fixed wing single engine, glider, and helicopter rated pilot but I don't fly much any more (I'm 75) but I appreciate Hoover's channel and still take all the lessons learned to heart. Thank you, Hoover. I know pilots everywhere appreciate your presentations and your tireless work to make us better and safer pilots. Keep up the great work!

[@gbinman]

I was locked in after seeing a Pilot Debrief video. I am a non-pilot but have followed a number of aviation channels. It's hard to say why. I like that he gets down to brass tacks quickly but is very respectful. Some channels have good content but jabber. I think his experience particular with pilot debriefings make his analysis very useful, even to non-pilots like me.

[@dinosoarmotorsports]

I'm a GA pilot, with a little time working as a pilot, and I find Hoover's channel an integral part of learning safe flying! All good pilots, and especially bad pilots, should subscribe!! Yeah, all pilots should subscribe.

[@astircalix4126]

.Former Air Force Pilot (IA 58 Pucará) and Bell UH1H/212/Hughes 500 helicopter pilot. As a former Air Safety Officer and air accident investigator, I'm grateful for the work you´re doing. Thanks for sharing your retrospective! . Greetings from Argentina.

[@LarrySpetka]

Hoover is my go to for aviation safety/accident videos. He is empathetic, humble, safety oriented, and nonjudgmental except when it comes to stupid pilot tricks. Dan Gryder is pretty full of himself and often speculates but also has a couple axes to grind so you have to take his stuff with a grain of salt. Blancolirio is OK but a lot of time is spent showing us and reading stuff to us that we can do ourselves.

[@tinafaulkner6405]

Love you Hoover, always respectful!💕

[@johnmehaffey9953]

Watched all of hoover’s debriefs very knowledgeable and humble you can hear emotion in his voice when speaking about tragedies

[@quantumjim45]

BIG thanks for bringing Hoover on - wonderful interaction and contributions from all of you!

[@den2k885]

What I love most about Pilot Debrief is the absolute terse exposition. His videos are 100% information, no bullshit, no wasted words.

[@ReedeetZee]

LOVE Hoover! Watch everything he posts!

[@autumn.melody1715]

Love Hoover!

[@shoop4040]

Blanco's and Hoovers channel my preference for Flight safety and accident evaluations. Plus with a name like Hoover C'mon reminds me of my favorite Bob Hoover.

[@davidjele3268]

I add Mentour to round off my top 3.

[@enigmawyoming5201]

I also follow all those also. 74Gear for light entertainment and life as a 747 pilot.

[@gtr1952]

When I first saw one of his videos, and started it, I knew within 2-3 minutes he was 'military'. Also right away I knew "Hoover" was his handle. I was not military, but my Father was a WW2 vet, most of my friends are/were, and all my close friends are/were military. For accident investigations, I prefer former/active/reserve military people too. Like Juan Brown, Scott Perdue, CW Lemoine, Ward Carroll and of course Hoover. I like, and appreciate the way the information is presented, and the care they take because it is such a sensitive subject to any and/or all involved, including just viewers. It's a hard job, and requires a lot of thought. JMHO, sorry to run on. Peace --gary

[@alreedyalrighty588]

From the first video I watched I was hooked. And thank you for your service.

[@siauciunaite]

LOVE me some Hoover! Pilot debrief Rocks!

[@terrancestodolka4829]

Lucky dude! Yet it is always an Air Force academy training teacher that brings it to KZbin and the development of bringing it to Pilot's Flying Safely... That is the total core element of all Flying Pilots... So glad to have him and all those like him, who want to make it better and safer for all pilots their families, friends, and the general public...

[@grantlarmstrong]

Great interview. Thanks for having Hoover on the channel.

[@TJFlyingAdventures]

Great interview.. I learn something every time I watch one of Hoover's videos!

[@coreyfleig2139]

Yep! Hoover really is an impressive guy. Isn't it obvious that humility, diligence, and truth generates trust and appreciation? Thanks Hoover, and please don't ever lose your focus on what's important!

[@mikefougere]

Hoover is what the FAA should have been doing since the 70's.

[@TheSlotMaster316]

Hoover is great. His KZbin vids are very informative and very fun to watch. I find his videos well edited, and well constructed, and lost importantly respectful of the folks in the crashes.

[@ChristopherSaindon]

Great interview and video!

[@KevinSmithAviation]

Excellent episode and interview, Dan, Christy and Baylee. I like watching Hoover's channel. He does a good job with his videos. Keep up the excellent work. Safe skies my friends 🇺🇸🛩️

[@J_B_2u]

I love Hoover's channel and his personality. His content is great is he always gives the full picture on what happened so that we can learn and not make the same mistakes. 67d also makes great products and they are a great group of people. I have purchased from them and highly recommend their products! Good stuff!

[@billwilliams9527]

Hoover, a good guy, good at what he does. Do like watching his channel. I am surprised at his bio, I didn't know all his accomplishments. I'm impressed.

[@eddiecordero2644]

Hoover is the real deal!

[@ShadesOClarity]

That's cool. Hoover has an awesome channel and his channel did take off - pun intended - very quickly. I am sorry I couldn't go to Oshkosh and meet Hoover, Blancolirio and Ron Rogers.

[@newsuperpowermiku760]

Love pilot debrief! The comments below from this individual are uncalled for. He brings that information with unique perspective. Keep up the great work & THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!❤

[@davidshettlesworth1442]

Thanks for an excellent video. Hoover does do a great job breaking down the accidents so us non pilots can understand what happened.

[@AnthonyQ730]

Fantastic interview! I love Hoover’s channel….For me there are a few Never-miss channels…Hoover is excellent for his analysis and unique insights of recent mishaps (bringing his military and airline perspective)…. In the same ilk as Juan (Blancolirio) for initial reviews (bringing his airline, military and A&P perspective)and Petter (Mentour) for really in-depth review of historical incidents and Dan (DTSB) for more of the nitty gritty (bringing training / CFI experience, and his humanity)

[@hughobrien4139]

I enjoy learning about these incidents. Hoover has a very effective approach in explaining the details. “The holes in the Swiss Cheese lined up.” I use that one in my trade now.

[@TheGospelQuartetParadise]

Been watching Hoover for quite some time.. I watch him, Juan Browne, and Peter over at VAS... And, of course, this channel... Love the content.

[@richardgreen6857]

Great interview. Hoover is one of my favourites, because he digs into all of the factors of an incident.

[@KCLIBURN-mj9qx]

Thanks for having Hoover on and watched your half hour video with a lot of aviation content creators there at Oshkosh. I've always liked aviation and planes and thanks for the introduction to some of the content creators! I was not really a very big KZbinr until I saw some of that content. I doubt I'll ever get a PPL but it sure is captivating to watch the pros demonstrate how it should be properly done. Thanks to all of y'all! Note to Hoover: A bunch of us at a manufacturing business that had access to the NASA satellite feed also watched the Challenger explode. A VERY sad day. That place was so quiet you could've heard a pin drop. RIP, Challenger crew. We took an unofficial break and went outside. We watched it in real time and not on tv. I think your incident analyses are good at beforehand consideraton. Morton-Thiokol should have pulled the plug on the launch when it was noted it was too cold for those seals that eventually failed.

[@curtisl3595]

One of my coworkers took a picture that morning of the launch pad with ice cycles hanging off the launch pad handrails. Definitely cold enough to cold soak everything. It was a terrible choice by the NASA leadership to launch.

[@julianwelz4450]

The most important thing is always to be self critical. Look on yourself and aee your own problems objectively, analyse them and learn! This is important for everyone

[@MrSuzuki1187]

Hoover is the absolute best aviation analyst and I always listen to what you say. I am a retired airline pilot with with 30,000 hours but still hold him in high regard. And the F-15 is my favorite fighter since I grew up next to the McDonnell plant in the early 1970 and watched to F-15 being test flown right out of the factory. Hoover is the all all around best pilot ever, Fighters, civilian, and then the airlines. He is far better than Dan Gryder and Juan Brown

[@curtisl3595]

Great interview! I like all of your videos and the in-depth questions you ask. I am an A & P having worked on the Shuttle program, afterword working on new military aircraft production. I am a private pilot currently building an experimental plane. I find both of your channels very informative and a great asset to the aviation community. Thank you all.

[@TakingOff]

Thanks for watching both our channels! Very cool that you worked on the Shuttle.

[@elaineroberts143]

Love this!! I’ve been watching Hoover for a while and just recently came across your channel so having you all together was a win for me.

[@hmabboud]

I am so glad to see you all and for hosting Hoover!

[@andreweppink4498]

Hoover, Did you learn flying on & off carriers during your time with the Marines? Thx. Andy Eppink

[@nicklovell5872]

Hoover is one of my favourite aviation KZbinrs. Can also recommend Growler Jams, Ward Carrol, CW Lemoine and Mentour Pilot. I realise I am probably preaching to the converted here... But if you haven't looked up their channels, give em a try

[@drdave1947]

This is a great video. Hoover is the best and I am so glad to have heard his history and comments. I wish the others in the video had each identified their experience briefly. I watch every one of Hoover's video and love his analysis of each. I no longer fly, but had a commercial instrument licence, single engine land and glider. I see mistakes I had made but survived. All pilots should watch his videos!

[@TakingOff]

Since it's our channel, we take it for granted that the viewers know who we are. Might drag down the videos if we gave our backgrounds everytime?

[@patrickheavirland3599]

Good morning from Minnesota. Got to meet him at Oshkosh. What really impressed me was his knowledge and the depth of research he does on his reports/debriefs. Great chanel!

[@shademe]

Well spoken good interview, I also love to watch hoovers debrief. What a humble guy. Thank you for all of your time.

[@CodyQuinn983]

Good interview. I’m not a pilot and been in one small private plane. I like Hoover because he shares stories so a regular person can understand. And, I recently found Taking Off from the TB algorithm. 😊

[@steviewonder9209]

Love Hoover's vids. "Take ownership"- great quote. Also: that sectional hat is killer!

[@Coops777]

Thanks guys. I totally enjoyed that!

[@danielcgomez]

Great video! Hoover is a badass! Love his uploads!

[@jeffsiegel4879]

Just got home from a week of prep and execution of the Wings Over Camarillo Airshow. One of the topics among us aviation fans and pilots was Pilot Debrief.

[@thewatcher5271]

Yeah, Hoover Is Great. One Of The Few Aviation Channels I Subscribe To. Thank You. (Like #496)

[@richardtruesdell8289]

Did you see those legs ? No the chair legs silly. I love Hoover's channel, what a humble guy and a great family man.

[@mr.d7776]

I've seen ever one of Hoover's podcasts. I learned a lot that will help me be a better RC planes pilot. I already told Hoover he can be my co-piloit anytime. :)

[@major__kong]

About that "secret", I thought it was going to be something like Hoover is actually just an AI bot created by Baylee :-)

[@TakingOff]

lol

[@bmprose]

if I was the airline employing Hoover I would plaster that everywhere. This guy is phenomenal. AND SAFE

[@kelleybutler9203]

One thing humble Hoover didn’t talk about is he’s such an awesome a pilot just like he is a human being. My nephew worked F-15E Strike Eagle’s with Hoover at Seymour Johnson AFB, after my nephew did time assigned to the Air Force Thunderbird’s team. So I’m very proud of my nephew and how Hoover was a wonderful role model and superior officer, he made my nephew’s time working with him and their F-15E (when it was on the ground) just a tremendous life experience. Hoover didn’t talk about a fighter debrief is you also point our thing’s that worked great to help everyone to be a even sharper as a fighter pilot. He deserves all his success because the young gentleman (young to me) put in the amazing work and is just a great person to do such important and even trying, hard work during wartime deployment’s and making them a better experience for everyone under his command or around him. God Bless Hoover and His Beautiful Family.

[@Kosmonooit]

Thanks - I really enjoy Hoover's channel. Anyone flying should study and learn from aviation accident reports / docs etc

[@budmidgett3812]

The common thread in all his videos is the bad decisions made that led to the incident. Many of those decisions were made before the aircraft ever left the ground. All pilots can learn from these decisions.

[@glennwatson]

Very good with his jet/military debriefs, sometimes problems with GA but noticed he's very good at issuing corrections in the comments though. Been consistently getting more accurate though.

[@PeggiMendricks]

Love that guy Hoover💯‼️

[@Duh_Huh_24]

Interesting. My dad went through TPS in '71 so we knew lots of people in the shuttle program, including some shuttle commanders. We saw the accident on TV then a week later we were in the exchange at hermann hall and Rick Hauck saw us and called out our names. He was in town for the beginning of the shuttle accident investigation and was over for dinner quite a few times while that investigation took place. Dad was able to fly for 24 out of his 28 years.

[@MetsterAnn]

NOT CRITICIZING HIM: I do work with the military, ga, airlines and charters in my airspace and the military is just different when it comes to aviation. He still puts out good vids and good information. Good video overall!

[@mikekarbach394]

Hoover is a very good analyst

[@pilotpeego1820]

Hoover is the man!

[@richardfischer6568]

I absolutely love the show. Hoover I wanted to share with you something that I truly learned from you. I'm not a pilot, but I was invited to go on a plane ride with a friend of mine, who had a friend who was a pilot. I thought, wow, that would be fun. When we got inside the plane, I was really excited to get the chance to see the city from the air. He started the engine and began to go to the runway. I ask him, "Did you do your flight checks?" He laughed and said, "Just sit back and relax and enjoy the view, I've been flying for 30 years and I can do this in my sleep. "I asked him if he even had a check list?" He turned around and rolled his eyes and asked, "What are you, a flight instructor?" That was it for me, and I told him I wanted off the plane. My friend was really shocked, and the pilot brought me back to the terminal. My friend told me that the flight was awesome and that i really missed a great opportunity to see the city from the air. The day was sunny, hardly any wind. No luggage. But he had no check list, and that bothered me a great deal. Thank you so much Hoover, I know in my heart that I did the right thing. He was way too arrogant. I may have missed a wonderful opportunity, but I'm not going to go into the air with as n over confident pilot who doesn't take the proper precautions. Again, thank you Hoover. You rock. I really love your shows

[@TakingOff]

You 100% made the right call.

[@DeeDaDee420]

Which airline does Hoover fly for? I haven't been brave enough to fly since Covid...but it gives me hope to know there are pilots out there like him...I'd paid extra if I knew he was flying the plane I booked (as long as it wasn't a Boeing 🥺)
