Location: North Atlantic Ocean.
A British Airways Boeing 777-200ER flying from New York-JFK to London-Gatwick (LGW) was forced to divert to St John’s in Newfoundland, Canada after one of the pilots became incapacitated. The flight, with flight number BA 2272, departed New York-JFK at 21:54 on March 14, 2024, for the seven-hour and 50-minute flight back to London, where it was due to land at 08:05 the following morning.
However, after around three hours of flying eastbound and with the aircraft cruising at 40,000ft and 440 nautical miles northeast of St. John’s, the crew declared an emergency, reporting that one of the flight crew was unable to continue in their duties. Upon further discussion between the crew and air traffic controllers based in Canada, the flight subsequently left its designated oceanic airway and turned back towards St John’s.
The aircraft eventually landed on runway 29 at St. John’s International Airport (YYT) at around 02:00 on the morning of March 15, 2024 - around 80 minutes after the emergency was declared. (www.aerotime.aero)

Any word on the condition of the incapacitated pilot?
3:30 Must have been difficult, landing at an unfamiliar airport in those circumstances. ATC could have given more specific directions to avoid their having missed the parking spot: those minutes could have been critical.
“Can we maintain high speed…?” Oh dear, that sounds very worrying. I hope the pilot recovered?
So correct me if I'm wrong, but the ATC making this guy do circles on the ground during an emergency is odd no?
It is a bit odd. Might have been faster to park where they were, bring the stairs and have the ambulance drive across the tarmac instead of running through a terminal. But when I mentioned this in another channel, many people said taxiing in circles was better.
Yes, Atc appears to be unaware or has forgotten it's a medical emergency. The pilot could have been more assertive though.
The pilot made a mistake, he went past where he was supposed to so ATC had to guide him back around.
The pilot was supposed to contact the de-ice frequency for parking instructions (presumably somewhere right there on the pad) once he turned onto J...but he inadvertently turned left onto H. The graphic showed him still up by the de-icing pad, but he said he was nearly to G already, so they had him double back around. It does seem like they could have brought the stairs and an ambulance to him instead to save time, but Idk how wide the taxiways are in that spot.
I think ATC assumed the pilot was familiar with the layout; didn’t give clear enough directions.
I’m surprised that although the crew made an error with missing parking assignment that ATF made them go around and come back to original spot costing more time. Wouldn’t be important to get the incapacitated Captain off and get medical care ? I mean how busy can St John’s be late at night?
And to think some countries want to push single pilot commerical flighs...
Passengers were rescued. Bad choice of words. Passengers boarded another BA 777, and continued their journey.
Good job on BA operations for managing to sort the passengers with that handy available aircraft, hopefully they were all understanding about the situation.
Why did they send a rescue plane. Couldn't they just leave the sick Pilot with one of the Crew , refuel and continue on with flight
@@OH-te6wrThey must have a full flight crew, properly trained.
Is RW 11 reciprocal of RW 29?
A taste of things to come after the mandated you-know-what.
How the hell did you understand that voice with static noise Jesus
Good news for the passengers most pilots flew planes alone in their careers so no big deal being alone again. Plus the planes do not require two people physically manipulating controls to fly. It is basically a safety regulation for times like this.
As far as I know, British Airways requires 3 pilots on board for trans atlantic flights - so there should be still 2 pilots on duty.
Bellow 10 000 feet there are a lot going on inside the flight deck. The pilot flying will focus on flying the aircraft, and the pilot monitoring will be on the radio, programing the fmc for the aircraft performance based on the weather conditions the weight of the aircraft and the runway, setting up the autopilot, and following the restrictions and rules of the approach chart, and setting up the flaps based on the conditions.
Definitely not recommended for 1 pilot only.
“Over the Atlantic”, was it a trans Atlantic flight? I thought those flights required more than 2 pilots on board for rest rotation. 🤔
@@marlinweekley51 Due to the description below the video "A British Airways Boeing 777-200ER flying from New York-JFK to London-Gatwick (LGW) ...".
Increase of workload though..
Surprised that BA didn't rush another set of pilots (instead of another plane) up there from JFH, refueled the plane an carried on from there. Seems hugely costly the way they did it. Any knowledgeable insight by industry insiders?
Swiss did exactly the same a few years ago, when one of their B777 aircraft got stranded in the Arctic (in Iqaluit) - they send an aircraft up from New York (and cancelled a regular flight therefore) to pick up the passengers. The point is - you need a suitable aircraft, you need a full crew (pilots *and* cabin) and you need a fresh crew which has valid duty time to perform the flight with the stranded passengers. And you need a replacement aircraft, e.g. an unused spare aircraft (sometimes available at the home base), or an aircraft where you book passengers easily on other flights - New York would be a prime candidate with multiple other daily options to New York. If you just fly in another aircraft, you need to scramble crew and airplane, get the flight ready (all multiple hours). By the time the aircraft lands, the crew duty time has expired, so return to home best case the next day, which means two days in hotels for the passengers, hotels which might not be available. Getting an aircraft up from New York is way more efficient. (Plane available within hours, duty time not expired, passengers don't need to go to hotels).
They ok?
That was my question. Also, given an emergency, why did they make them go around again on the tarmac?
@@pgbrandonThe pilots goofed and missed their parking spot the first time through.
OK, now wait a minute here; You have a medical emergency on board and they tell you to turn into the deice pad. I would TELL THEM that I was stopping on the taxiway after landing and they had better have the damn stairs and ambulance ready! Hello?
I do not know went wrong here, how bad it actually was. And I don't know if 777's have steering tillers on each side of the cockpit. If the Captain in the left seat is the problem and there is no tiller on the right, then they need to pull him out of the seat and set him on the ground so that the first officer can then occupy the left seat and taxi the airplane after landing. The right seat, where the FO sits, has a limited 10 degrees of steering available with the rudder pedals; You CANNOT make a 90 degree turn from the right seat, even with brakes, pedal steering, and differential power, right up to takeoff thrust. It won't work. I suspect the first officer had some sort of problem;
There goes his medical~
Calm down there captain happy.
KAREN ALERT!
Lol could be food poisoning or norovirus. That'll have you uncontrollably leaking out of holes that you don't want leaking. As mentioned before, BA policy requires three flight crew on transatlantic flights.
Agree I did a trans Atlantic this week on Friday night and they mention the three pilots.
You got me until you said up to Take-off thrust...
Thank you Mr Pfizer
Note to self………..Never get on a airplane with a single pilot if they took the you know what.
I would bet there was a 3 person flight crew .
Crap audio.
Receiver limitations. Nothing anyone can do about it.
