I'm from Bahrain, and an interesting fact that this video doesn't mention is that the reason he doesn't complete the orbit is because at that time a new bridge was being built with powerful lights to help with construction he mistook the bridge for the runway and was heading towards the bridge, I know this cause I studied aircraft maintenance engineering in Bahrain and one of our instructors was the head of the crash investigation before he became an instructor, one of the biggest reasons this accident happened was a breakdown in culture, the first officer wasn't passive out of the blue it is deeply rooted in the culture in Bahrain elders and anyone that is higher ranking or of seniority is viewed as all knowing, and all capable and not to be challenged or rebelled against, so how was the first officer supposed to challenge that? If the first officer would have breathed through his right nostril more then the left one and unequally, he would have been accused of being rebellious, he would have been fired before landing, probably tied down in the bathroom, shamed by his family, everyone that knows him and that would be the end of the line for him, complete breakdown in culture.

Notwithstanding this tragic incident, I do not know of any other contemporary airline disasters occurring in Bahrain, nor involving any flights travelling in or outbound so (unless I need correcting regarding what I have just said) it seems that you have an excellent safety record and now also a good CRM led cockpit culture. Airline safety has improved so much due to the price paid in blood but even when I first started flying on commercial airlines in the late 1970's what was then already considered the most safe method of transport still had a risk that would be totally unacceptable even just 2 decades later, never mind now.

Also worth noting that, in light of modern desires for optimal fuel burn and efficiency, we're continuing to wear down the amount of hand-flying time that pilots get each flight. The AP/AT combo is going to get you the most optimal path and burn. It's no surprise that, in a number of these crashes, the commonality is crews who are put in a weird situation without the hand-flying skills to handle it. Everything stacks from there.
@Dirtyironman4 ай бұрын
That’s a double edged sword. A lot of the videos I have watched on accidents are also contributed to VERY experienced pilots hand-flying and seemingly becoming disoriented. A situation that a pre-programmed system just wouldn’t do. AP helps a lot in avoiding human error, especially when messing up just once can have such catastrophic results. But also on the other edge of that sword, when the AP or other systems malfunction, hand-flying skills are crucial. So neither one is better than the other. But a combination of using both has the highest probability of safety.
@KyleRodgers4 ай бұрын

The captain reminds me, of myself, a bit confident, assertive and sometimes prefer my 'logic' over 'absurd' procedures. But I work in the I.T. sector, my mistakes won't kill. (And I think flying SOP's are pretty logical, I guess he didn't). He should never have been allowed to be fly.. I also get the co-pilot, he trusts the pilot will get the job done, is still 'learning' (very bad practices) and is still figuring out the SOP's in practice. He may know them, but when you are nervous, you forget things. He didn't have a "captain", he had an overconfident guy, just doing what he was always doing.. but the somatogravic illusion caught him off guard, was too low to wake up from his shocking situation and became a passenger in a 1 pilot plane. The first officer probably was still thinking it was gonna be okey.. what a tragedy..

Having three people in the cockpit changes this dynamic. 1:1 with one senior and one junior is a setup for disaster. Especially in macho cultures. Three people in the cockpit it’s much easier for two to team up and question a pilot.

At that time most of their senior pilots were British, ex-RAF. I was working in Saudi around that time and used to fly home to UK on leave with Gulf. I think it was safer then.

I don't think it was incompetence and poor training.. most probably arrogance and over-confidence on the captains side that killed them all.. that's why it's very important to only allow "sane" people to fly an aircraft.

When I worked in Bahrain Gulf Air, offered free flights and food as proving flights to help give staff experience. Those who did so were very frightened as it was clear the pilot had poor flying skills, passengers were crying. My flight back to London, the pilot spoke to the passengers in educated English, my adjacent passenger and others around me all said out loud thank god he's European. They started nervous laughter while relating previous previous frightening flights.

The only thing more dangerous than underestimating your objective is overestimating your ability to deal with it. Golden rule: much, much better to be humbled and late than arrogant and dead. This is the primary goal in special operations training: once a plan and all possible scenarios have been confirmed by all participants, and everyone knows exactly what they must do, NEVER DEVIATE FROM THE PLAN! You will cause exactly the kind of chaos that erupted in the cockpit of this flight, with the same end result; people will get killed for absolutely no good reason. The captain not only committed suicide, he committed mass murder. RIP to all those who died in this absolutely preventable and tragic disaster. I will stop short, by the width of an angel's hair, of not including the captain to have a peaceful rest.

Hello sir! Thank you so much for your hardwork in making this such high-quality, engaging and detailed video about this horrific crash, there was a lot of important points to learn from it! Especially about personalities and how not speaking up when required can be highly dangerous or even fatal. This video has given me the understanding of the importance to point-out and speakup when someone does something wrong (especially if the person is in higher in seniority) without being aggressive or passive. (That different coloured bar was a very good way to visualise it). Thanks once again sir for your awesome quality videos!

😔As mentioned previously, the last line of defense of these poor people was Cpt Tchoutch (nickname), he was Gulf Air head of training just before the accident, he refused to sign off this captain until he got bypassed, Cpt Tchoutch then stepped down from the training and the rest is history... After the accident Cpt Tchoutch was reinstated with instructions to report only to the Chairman of the board. May God have mercy on your soul Tchoutch, i'm sure you saved many other lives.

What a disaster. How can you simply ignore certain procedures like this and not step up if you know that Captain next to you absolutely out of his mind and risks so many lifes.

What this incident underscores in my mind is to know and adhere to company SOPs. An airline absolutely needs to have top-notch training but the flight deck crew need to be personally involved in their own professional management by reviewing their SOPs regularly.
