This was handled very professionally. ATC didn’t hound the crew with questions as they knew they were busy troubleshooting. Kudos to everyone involved!

They also failed to copy the nature of the emergency and forced the crew to repeat.

@@andrewwelchphotographer I was thinking the same.. not only a handoff, but "talk to approach for sequencing" after he's declared a Mayday and said they need to return immediately!

Wow.... an aircraft in the USA utilising international distress procedures perfectly, right down to the repeat of the 'Maydayx3' every time he changed frequencies! See how smoothly everything goes when the correct distress procedures are utilised? Everybody knows where they stand and what to expect without ATC having to keep asking if they're going to declare an emergency. No time is wasted..... Well done that pilot!

The scope definitely told the controllers it was an emergency

zero need for that magical word, "declaring an emergency" and 7700 works perfectly fine

Cleared for 35R and later cleared for 36R -- strange? No, actually it is not. I checked and MCO has both 35 L & R and 36 L & R. Original instruction was for 35R which is 9,000 ft but later Approach Control PROPERLY switched the instruction to 36 R which is 12,000 ft and 200 ft wide. Possible single engine might not have reverse thrust. Good call by ATC to put the Emergency A/C on the longest runway. Of course it confused ME initially because I didn't know Orlando had all those N-S runways. The pilots did know that, so they didn't question it.

It was the pilot who requested the switch to 36R. See 3:16.

U.S. pilots seem to be getting better at using MAYDAY and PAN-PAN recently. Has there been a rule change or new guidance issued or am I imagining it?

Not sure why, but at least at American, the training department is emphasizing the proper use of mayday and pan pan calls. “Declaring an emergency” isn’t recognized by ICAO, so they want the pilots to do it the correct way.

@stephenp448 5 ай бұрын

It's getting better for sure, but he wasted a bit of time with the first call just calling the tower with his call sign. It would be perfectly acceptable to jump right in with "Mayday Mayday Mayday, American 2095, American 2095, American 2095", then state the nature of the emergency. I kind of question the tower controller's instruction to contact approach for sequencing after they said they need to return immediately.

I'm not sure if this will be answered and I don't know if I'll get an alert if anyone does. I've been following this you tube channel and other, similar ATC channels for a long time. But why are radio communications so bad? This is an emergency situation and I could barely hear any of the tower instructions as they were garbled mostly. This is an emergency aircraft. Are there any plans to enhance communications so it doesn't sound like someone trying to handle a short range radio? We must be able to do better. Thanks again You can see ATC for sharing all of these situations with us!

You are listening to a recording from someone's scanner. The quality of the reception is going to be dependent on how far away they are from the source. The conversation between the tower and the plane will have been perfectly clear to them just not to the scanner on the ground.

@@bigskyvideo thanks so much for that explanation. I wasn't aware that the interference wasn't on the actual transmission. That gives me hope that our pilots aren't trying to navigate MAYDAY situations while listening to a transmission that sounds like a tin can on a string telephone!

Yeah like the comments above said you can hear it perfectly well on the actual plane. If you watch some cockpit take off videos you can hear how clear the radio is @@papaguy2001

Exceptional radio work, highlighting the Mayday status after every single frequency change was exemplary to avoid assuming that each controller was aware. It could be if he is earlier in his career that this is something they are really drilling on the training now, that older pilots might have forgotten (or even not been trained that way).
