10 REAL MAYDAY calls. Real ATC communications | Compilation #1

[@FlyLeah]

Goosebumps everytime you hear "you’re cleared to land any runway"

[@ranamasoud5641]

Yeah. Same

[@dzerres]

It gets me everytime the tower asks about "souls on board".

[@Heatherder]

Much aviation terminology is derived directly from nautical terminology

[@raybankes7668]

@@Heatherder souls means alive humans. sometimes they haul dead ones and don't want to confuse if crash who died or who was already dead

[@vonnikon]

How do you feel when you see the emergency SQUAWK code? SQUAWK 77 - Rhymes with "We are falling from heaven"

[@jonathanbrady5243]

This tradition comes from a maritime tradition during slavery. Slaves were not considered people and so rescuers would ask for souls onboard because the captain often would not count the slaves as passengers.

[@EScott-zx2gs]

@@raybankes7668 it's crucial info for fire/rescue and other emergency services responding to the aircraft. They don't want to make any unnecessary trips inside that burning tin can. Once all SOB's are accouted for it allows them to employ tactics they wouldn't use while performing SAR. There are other important things they need to know about like any hazardous cargo on board but soul count is priority. Getting that count out alive is the only thing those emergency crews care about.

[@lutN]

Pilot: We have flight control problem Russian ATC: ok thank))))))))))

[@Royal-Gene]

What the hell...

[@taras1033]

"Thank you very much" is most common phrase used in post-soviet countries.

[@lutN]

@@taras1033 I see

[@lutN]

@antarctis it links to atc asking for souls on board, fuel etc, then saying "thank you"

[@JonaTinCan]

3:45 "Sorry about that" lol even in an emergency, Canadian kindness is still going strong.

[@robscaife589]

Yes, I know, we tend to to that a lot. Sorry about that.

[@robscaife589]

1:49 ATC: "You have an engine fire..." No, the pilot said "fire on board", which is a very different and much more serious issue.

[@help3102]

i mean the editor still said the nature of emergency was engine fire so

[@CDABXXX]

@@help3102 you miss the point. “Fire on board” is completely different and severely more serious than “an engine fire.”

[@lastfirst5863]

Could be, but pilot confirmed it so either it was an engine fire or the pilot deemed it unnecessary to correct ATC on the nature of the fire after it was put out.

[@millieatr]

Ive never experienced a MAYDAY but in 1996 i did experience a PAN PAN PAN when my wife hit me with the Skillet

[@shadezentertainment9877]

nice

[@nexus_plexus]

This should be breaking the internet right now. And you, sir, should be President.

Did she hit you on a May day?

[@stormy9568]

Haha

[@brad_Ca]

Do more of these, loved it. 👍

[@YouCanSeeATC]

Thank you. It was like an experiment. Will try.

[@phbuss]

Agreed!!!

[@littlemopete931]

YES! More please!

[@sarahalbers5555]

My next two cats are going to be named May Day and Pan Pan! This was fast, furious , and a nice change!

[@patrickmitchell6968]

I was thinking those would be great names for guard dogs. PAN PAN would be the first to investigate a strange noise and then MAY DAY would be the one to deal with an intruder. "PAN PAN, there is a strange noise out by the fence. Please investigate"! "MAY DAY! MAY DAY! MAY DAY! Intruder alert! Run direct front gate! Intercept bandit! Descend and maintain bite!" LOL!!

[@NobodySomebodyToo]

Love it!

[@Salac0]

Wait, TWO pilot incapacitations over Zurich? What's up with the alpine air?

[@flowablesysadmin8068]

Too much Raclette the night before :-)

[@ZC.Andrew]

That was the same flight. The captain really cannot hold his liquor!

[@peterwmdavis]

Should link to the videos, get more views. Or a playlist?

[@susanwahl6322]

When I worked at the Sioux Falls airport ( Joe Foss Field), there was a plane that was arriving but no body told the snow plow operator this. The plane landed and promptly spun around in circles. It was very lucky that there were no fatalities on the plane. Unfortunately the same couldn’t be said for the poor driver of snow plow. This took place in the ‘80s. I think.

[@mbta1000]

Ozark Air Lines Flight 650, December 20th 1983.

[@mabethmacasasa4604]

the filipino one is so calm I thought that he is just reading a script

[@MyMotherSaid-c4y]

I Love this channel

[@yuriprisant157]

Are they speaking like doctors write?

[@GreenAxolotI]

I think HNL tower did it best, no messing around asking what runway they want, just telling them essentially, “whatever you need to do you can do to get the aircraft down safely”

[@NobodySomebodyToo]

Really like the brief on the right!

[@BobbyGeneric145]

Awesome video idea!

[@YouCanSeeATC]

Thanks👍

[@nicolaseggers9769]

[@topchrono19]

Many pilot incapacitation...does it happen that often? And for which reason are they usually incapacitated?

[@j134679]

The usual human medical emergencies

[@majidshafiq3833]

What is significance of saying ‘Heavy’.

[@vonnikon]

Large aircraft which causes lots of turbulence. That turbulence can be dangerous for small aircraft behind. The world's largest aircraft (Airbus A380 and the Antonov 225) cause even more turbulence, so they say "Super" instead.

[@ironcito1101]

Shouldn't something like shutting down an engine be more of a panpan thing?

[@vonnikon]

Not if you are a 2 engine aircraft and need priority landing. Two functioning engines are required for redundancy. But four engine aircraft can have an engine out and not declare an emergency.

[@dengamleidiot]

What does the “heavy” mean in airplane talk?

[@IGLArocknroll]

Maximum permissible takeoff weight over 136 tons (300 thousand pounds). The term "super" also exists, but only in the United States, used for oversized (Airbus A-380, Antonov An-225, basically anything which is heavier than a 747) aircraft.

Any time I hear them say we have X souls on board my eyes well up 😢

[@kamyagupta4030]

thanks ❤️❤️❤️

[@Srabubulupa]

Pilot: Yeah, we have problems / Russian ATC: Roger thank you / Pilot: Ehm we have to declare mayday / Russian ATC: PATHETIC

[@derp8575]

[@AsimovXV]

the funny

[@jamescwolf]

I like the movies that come out of Hollywood, but this is different. Real people in real life situations.

[@BoatRocker619]

Pilot incapacitation means what ??

[@kickedinthecalfbyacow7549]

Which word don’t you get?

[@falconaviation1957]

Russian accent gets me every time Lmao

[@bobrosso9147]

what's a "very poorly pilot?"

[@RomeoJulietCharlie]

“Poorly” just means unwell/sick/ill.

[@jaclam1]

​@@RomeoJulietCharlie Don't forget to take into account British understatement - Poorly is unwell. Very poorly means OMG!

[@Cty0427]

how can they hear 10 hours and 13 soul?? I played 0.5x and I still cannot hear that… 1:41

[@j134679]

"One three souls on board"

[@juliechoi4053]

"Souls on board" huh

[@hdturner1]

crew + passengers. important because total number determines emergency responders and hospital protocols

[@MrMiD.Life.Crisis]

The pilot is poorly. Is poorly a word that's understood internationally? I look forward to your puns.

[@brianthesnail3815]

Poorly is such a British way of saying really ill. Clearly 'incapacitated' was a bit more than feeling unwell.

[@MrMiD.Life.Crisis]

@@brianthesnail3815 I'm English and my name is Paul. I've heard the poorly puns. Was hoping to hear some fresh new ones! Hope you're good mate. :)

[@ppal64]

Do the ATC guys know how to speak or is that not a requirement of the job?

[@utubeoppressesme5945]

Thanks to the plandemic, airlines most likely cut back on maintenance and a lot of place will have issues, I am expecting more and more cases like this.

[@strnglhld]

That literally makes no sense.

[@utubeoppressesme5945]

@@strnglhld well you're not very smart so that explains a lot

[@somethingsomething404]

They actually had more time for maintenance because they had the same staff and less flights. For the most part AME’s weren’t let go
