      ljessecusteri you mentioned ego, any pilot have to put that aside, you have passengers/crew that are relying on you wether captain/first officer, they do switch roles, one flying and or monitoring. Again, well done Air India, atc. Many carriers do hire pilots that were military. That's perhaps is a good call on what carrier you are planning to fly with. Understand that military pilots, depending on what type of craft they flew, training is still key.

    Mad props to those second pilots. After that one flight (forgot the airline) that ran out of fuel waiting its turn to land over Long Island, New York, those guys did an amazing job. I remember there being a slight controversy about the Vancouver reroute, though, because it was cutting it very close and the closer airport would have been a better choice. Still, no one was hurt, so that's always good. I thought I read on some other Flight Disaster channel they talked about the importance of landing ANYWHERE, not just where you thought was best. As long as it's a learning experience with no deaths, I say, let 'em learn before we learn the hard way.

    Avianca 052 out of BOG for JFK in Sept. 1990 similar reasons for that tragedy (fuel starvation). I was working back then (another carrier), and for some reasons that one stayed with me.
    I was stationed out of JFK, and my wife was home at the time (in NYC), and it was immediately broadcast on local news channels that ended up hampering rescues because too many civilians created crowds around the wreckage. AND local news videos were live and not edited resulting in shocking footage. Though there were more than 50% who survived that crash. You may have covered this one already?

    Seems like that Air India bus should never have been sent into the air. Do they do any maintenance at all in India?

    • @antaripbiswas1569
      @antaripbiswas1569 3 месяца назад +2

      Yes, Air India has a massive aircraft maintenance facility within India, supported by both Airbus and Boeing. Apart from this, both Airbus and Boeing operate manufacturing and service facilities in India in partnership with local companies like Tata. There are a few private MRO firms as well.
      The issue with this particular Air India flight was that during the 2015-2019 period, the airline was facing a lot of financial problems with unpaid debts, etc., and being a government-owned airline the bureaucracy was equally horrible with a lot of Red tape. Hence most of their flights had unserviceable equipment or flying with minimum required systems.
      The government was desperately looking to sell off the airline to any private organization and in 2022 Tata Group acquired the airline. Tata is a big conglomerate firm in India that manufactures everything from steel to automobiles to assembling iPhones.. and Air India was initially started by the Tata group way back in the 1940s before the then-Indian government passed laws and forcefully took over the airline management.

      Very interesting. Has the safety of the airline improved since Tata took back control? For the sake of everyone and their families I hope so. The flight crew was a marvel of calm efficiency. I hope they received some kind of acknowledgement of their professional skills in bringing the bus down safely.

      @@kathyr2792 Yes in the past 1 year Tata has improved upon its maintenance practices. A lot of planes, especially older Airbus A319 and A320 aircraft were lying mothballed due to lack of parts. Those planes have been fixed and brought back into service. Further, Tata has ordered over 400+ new aircraft from Airbus and Boeing together as they plan to retire the existing fleet. So yes things are improving!

    First incident: Emirates' crew did a great job; controllers were helpful and responsive. Should the 777 have arrived in the Seattle area with more fuel reserve? (OK, maybe I'm nitpicking). Second incident: Great teamwork and attention to detail by this crew. Intelligent pilots who know how to solve problems and go about it calmly, using what they knew to arrive at solutions. One minor nitpick is that I think they should have explicitly told the tower much earlier about the specific instrument failures they had. Still, superb, commendable work under difficult circumstances. However, the bad news is somebody needed to go back to the maintenance function at Air India and ask why this airplane took off with multiple safety-critical systems failing. I think that work was not commendable.
