Petter, I just want to thank you for this video. By using your tips, I managed to pass my assessment with the company you're working for, starting my Type Rating this April.
The one tip that helped me pass was your advice to "help your colleague get the job". I made sure to suggest advice and prompt him during the sim session. The assessor absolutely loved that, and we both got the job.
Your channel has always been a source of inspiration, motivation, and plenty of extra knowledge. Thanks for this massive offer to the aviation community!- Demetris
congrats! did you push the pf`s thrust levers if he was under the glide or touch the controls if the localizer was lost as Patrik said? Because I thought if you are pm you should only advise once or twice with "altitude", if not reactive, say pitch up or down, if lost the glide under 1000 ( more than one dot) call a go-around.. take control only if the other guy is unsafe. prompting is good, but touching the controls and thrust while the other guy is flying... dunno what to say about that
"You just fucked up the approach so go around " haha good one
Mentour Pilot can u explain how the instruments work each one of them starting with the airspeed indicator and the altimeter and the vsi if you don't mind
abdullah pilot you can probably find some videos on RUclips of basic flight instrumentation.
i love it when +Mentour Pilot says "As always i hope your doing absolutely FANTASTIC out there"
I have a sim assessment tomorrow and I believe that watching your video may increase my odds of success 🙏
I hope so! Best of luck
I never heard you Pete saying fucked up in any video hahahahah :P
Excellent. Love these informative theoretical technical videos, especially relating to flight deck etiquette, how crew interact and work together on the flight deck - CRM and MCC. Goes much deeper than just the technical aspects of piloting an airliner. Great team work, attitude, appreciation and respect. Positive attributes we can apply to most aspects of life.
The amount of tips are just unbelievable ..
Thanks so much captain.
This video is the best bunch of screening tips I've heard until now. Looks like it exactly alling with the screening trends I currently observe. Still have to finish my MCC and I am going to apply for FO position asap.
I think You are doing outstanding step running this Vlog ...
Thanks once again
You are really organized when you deliver a lecture. And, I can fully understand things you emphasize on. Keep the good work up! I will keep these things in mind in my future assessments. I fully practice the CRM methods of stress management and conflict resolution in my day to day flights. But its just that these things don't come out in a foreign environment especially when I am doing a sim assessment probably thats why I fail. It seems a long way to go to expertise these skills. But let me tell you this video was really helpful! Thank you for sharing!
The F word kept me concentrated. More videos like this please! :)
The best video in months!! Really interesting and I guess will help a lot of people.
8:37, I guess that is what I really want to hear, a human talking and making errors. Not scripted essays of information.
Awesome Video with great and helpful information for every cadet. Highly appreciated, thank you very much!
Thank you so much for this video. It helped me to be more comfortable for my sim assessment on the next Tuesday !
Amazing advices! Great video as always!!! Have a absolutely fantastic day
As always, outstanding work. Thanks for the tips
Excellent video and advice, thanks!
Awesome video, in my view the best one yet :) thanks Mr M!
i think i am learning this kind of team work during my training as well. we all want to be the quicker one to get our licenses, but we still try our best to help each other to prepare their check ride, no matter who's going to be quicker. we just want everyone to pass the check at the first try. hope to have amazing colleagues like this in the future ˆ_ˆ
Bra och hjälpsam video som vanligt!
I'm not a pilot but i look at your videos like tomorrow i'm going to fly a commercial jet.
It's crazy where your passion can get you. Watching videos on how to succeed simulator assessment although you aren't even a pilot.
Thank you for sharing
Thanks. Continue the good job. Happy new year
wonderful video, it gives a great insight !
Thank you very much for those really helpful tips :)
Anyone that has never heard Mentour spice up a sentence before, go to @8:37 ! HAHAHA. Great video again, Mentor. Happy new year !
thanks good crm and teaching techniques..most important clear and very useful
Yes, it is!
Nice vid, can you please make a video about some of the important functions in an aircraft, for like example what some of the buttons do. Thank you and good content as always.
Excellent video.
Extremt bra video! Keep the good work up :)
nice video again mentour. wondered if any failures were likely to be thrown in . ive no need to ask now. no big ones though it seems. thx
Very interesting :)
Will install and rate the app.
happy and successful new year
Hey Petter! Great video, it's gonna help alot!
I was requesting if you could do a simulator video descripting basic simulator assessment, for non type rated pilots.
Detailed procedures and tips with regards to no AP, AT, FD Radial tracking, raw data ILS, go around then engine failure, engine failure with V1 cut( I know you have this one already) then a vnav lnav approach. A true one stop video for all NTR 737 assesments.
There's a lot of assesments going on eg for flydubai and candidates are scrambling around looking for information!
Would really help all of us alot and be a hallmark video for all future pilots!
Thank you! Please let me know if you do post such a thing 🙏🙏🙏
This one is such ...for non TR
omg ,thank you soo much for this video.I'm 17 years old and i don't know why i'm already stressing over this exam of the simulator assessments.I really love these type of videos of were you talk about how to pass these flight exams etc...
How long are these flying exams? Will I fly with my instructor only or with others in the flight school? What's the link to the suitability test? (you forgot to tell it in one of your videos of "How to prepare fot flight training")
Sound advice and certainly sensible and commendable. Then there are those horrid operators that do not want you to help your colleague and instead mark you negatively! In situations where you are paired with a company Captain instead of another candidate, does citing type specific SOPs(if you have learnt them and know your way around the panels and flows) and know how to read nd call the FMA will that hurt you as boastful or be seen as having done your due diligence and therefore already on the learning curve that lies ahead for the type rating training if successful? What are your views on that? It might be that you had done the type rating course before but has long expired.
Awesome vid! Hey Pete im curious if a sim assessment is done in Real CAE full sim or in fixed simple machine ?
Very interesting and how it should be in any job that you do. Good video!
Happy New Year, have a great 2017!
"Next thing you need to do is to actually be succesfull" well said :D
Thanks for the vid! On another note, that probably was one of the most casual ways I've ever heard someone say "fucked up" haha. It caught me off guard lol
hey! great video as always! really enjoyed it (just like every video honestly). I was thinking that maybe you have some comments on ICAO english test? I have this on my mind for some time now, would be really cool to hear something from a person who have actually done that!
laurzuka its pretty simple. First just a chat with the intructor then you get to listen on some sound recordings and re-read them or answer questions from the recordings.
T0x1s1 it does sound simple when you put it like this! thanks!
Nice vid Peter!
opps 8:38 maybe you forgot to bleep it it out %£$K
:-)
Very interesting watch.
Can you talk about the technicalities of the precision required in the approach and how much tolerance a company allows does it vary across companies? Are you allowed to zig zag on the localiser if you are on short finals and want more spacing?
"you realize that you have f**ked up the approach and it is not safe to continue" That got their attention 😂😂
Not sure I've heard your swear before :) Also, fancy doing a trim runaway video in Mentor360 at some point?
Fantastic video! I just downloaded your app, and guys I recommend it very much!! Great learning tool
Hi, I'm interested in your favourite type(s) of plane(s) to fly. What is your favourite type of plane? And furthermore, do you prefer Airbus or Boeing types of planes? Is one of them (Boeing or Airbus) easier to fly?
Hi, I would like to ask you a question. Do you think it's a good idea to become a pilot? I mean..with the autopilots and stuff...isn't it possible that pilots will be replaced by this technology in the near future? Thanks. :)
You are awesome :)))))
Happy New Year to everyone, no matter where you are in the world. may all your aviation dreams come true in 2017. just remember, you're marketing the most precious commodity to the business, yourself.
if you want success, dress for it. look like money in the bank and you'll have it. when you feel anxious, review this: the most complex piece of equipment on any aircraft is your brain. Flying is all about control and control is in your mind. Focus + knowledge = results.
Let nothing stand in your way, we only have one life, do what you love.
Much love,
Ava💖
Brain Echo: " you fucked up the appropoach"
Voice next to me: Go around.
thx
The best pilot
But it was a great and informative video
Hi, what you say at 9.15, that is better saying 'take a bit of thurst off' than using the callout 'glideslope'... mhh aren't we supposed to use the standard callouts? (which for this situation would be 'glideslope'...). So in your airline they want us to say the corrective action to take? Thank you!
Dude that's for this. Wish I had seen this a year ago.
Keith D'Mello it's never too late mate
Hi Mentour! One question....what would you do as a candidate if during de sim assessment your collegue taking off forgets to call 100kt (or 80kt)? Would you as PF abort take off (pilot incapacitation) or call for examle 120kt? According to your advices, i think that the second option is the best one.
hi i want ro know that i neet ATPL for captain and heavier up to 12000 lbs aircraft and for co-pilot ???
hey mentour, I've seen most of your videos and they've been really helpful. Do you know any captains or first officers who came from the military? What I want to do is train to become a fighter pilot and when my contract is over, I would like to transfer to airline passenger transport like you. Where do you get training after the military to fly passenger airplanes like a Boeing 747 etc. Oh and also, what jet do you fly? Thank you for taking the time to read this and answer!
?
I have read ALOT about this, going from military to commercial, I even think Mentour has mentioned it in one video.
If youre joining the military just to become an commercial pilot youre wrong, you should not join the military just to become an commercial pilot, then you should go to a commercial flightschool instead.
Jonte Ponte oh okay thanks for the answer. I have actually always wanted to be a fighter pilot and the only reason why I've been looking at commercial flying is to see if there would be anything I could after the military. Thank you for replying!
Anthony 530 Aha ok, just saw that you have wrote more than i saw so i can answer some more of your questions :)
Where do you get training after military?: I would suggest you google some on it, but i would asume that you just go to a flightschool like any other but youll probaly get it cheaper since you have some of the training already :)
What plane does mentour fly?: Mentour Pilot is currently flying a Boeing 737
Most of videos and you don't know what type of plane he is flying with ?! Come on ?!
Can you explain how the instruments work please
thank you for vid, awesome advise
I dunno why I'm watching this,I'm at the start of my fast track course and literally still doing circuits and doing my ppl exams 😂 i still haven't eve done my first solo but I'm gonna do it next month but I'm quite excited to fly larger planes
I found Maria on youtube, thanks!
***** ok , thanks.
I wonder if there is data on the "help your colleague to get the job" thing?
What I mean is, is it more likely for the sim-crew to either both get the job or both be rejected then the scenario where one is accepted and one not?
I will be commencing my flight training very soon and would like to know what aspects of geography should I know that will aid me through my training and future career as an airline pilot. Thanks.
Have you taken geography as an option for GCSE's? If not, it really does help and looks really good in a CV, after GCSE's nothing more is really needed except that maintaining of your knowledge of geography
Hey mentour, its been awhile since we saw Teddy in some videos...if possible..can you upload videos of Teddy explaining about CASS( CAE Aircrew Selection System) and some tips to clear this test... hope ur doing fine in "sweat box"...
May I know the intro and outro music? Its really catchy lol
very useful video thanks.
Just a quick question : I can not download your app via the French App Store ... Any ideas how I could do ?
got it, I figured it out :)
I actually have a sim assessment next week, I was wondering if you had some tips about the theorical test and briefing ? ( or maybe you already did a video that I didn't see about that ? )
Haha f...word. Great channel
would have been better if you added the app link in the video description
1. they hire the hero of help. make a star out of your colleague and you will be noticed.
2. don't bust your level😁
Ava Mendez are you still active on RUclips?
8:37 HAHAHAH ahhhhhh
its not that amazing
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Hi, Mentour what happens when both pilots are incapacitated ?
Hey Cap! Could you explain what Approaching Minimums are? I always listen to that, but still can't exactly find the meaning. Thank you very much!
4 Years late but it means that you are 100ft above your minimums
but what about long haul flights?
I fly a lot in Microsoft Flight Simulator. Tried Prepar3d, but it looks the same like FSX. I assume professional simulators are more complicated or not? Could I if pilots get incapacitated, in theory, land the aircraft with what I already know or the plane would just be shut down by F16?
Yes, you can try to land. The plane will definitely not get shot down.
When applying for a flight school, does the flight school like having younger people apply like late teens or early twenties or do they prefer someone in their late twenties, early thirties who has had previous job(s) ?
Anyone can join a flight school be it a person of 17-18 years of age or late twenties or thirties.
But experience does matter when it comes to applying for jobs. Many airlines prefer to take degree holders while some not.
Very interesting and informative, and a bit of the secret, I suspect, revealed. I suppose my 80 year old grandma could have flown the sim around the pattern - once. But a couple thousand times? And then even in situations where stress would render useless anyone who doesn't possess unique and professional skills and attitude? I think I'll continue to insist on professional pilots rather than grandma (though my grandma wouldn't have hesitated. “F...ed this one up, didn't I?”.
can you join an another country's airline?
dude i cant download the app... it says device not compatible... i own a samsung j7 prime
mentour....question-- do u suffer from jetlag ?if yes how do u overcome it??
You don't seem to get jet lag on short haul flights as the countries you are flying to aren't many hours ahead or behind
This guy is a dude 😎
8:37
:3
With who did you fund your training if I may ask?
SnazzyMacGuy He did a video on that if I'm not mistaking.
RAZERZ
Yeah that's the one where he went through options etc, just wondering who he personally went with.
I apply for A320 type rate but on the assessment date they took me on 787 so shock
are you typed in 737 ?
Yes, 737 300-900
Good informative video, except where you talk about 'helping' as monitor at around 9:21. You're supposed to be monitoring them, not telling them what to do. Pilot flying takes the lead and if they're as qualified as you are, they should know how to correct slope, speed etc when you make the call. It's when they do NOT correct after you make the deviation calls do you question their intentions before you give them suggestions to correct - not how to fly it. When you start telling them what corrections to make, the pilot flying is no longer flying it - you are.
i fucked up my sim assesment with irish mafia. because I hadn't had a preparatory session a few days before. it's better that way. but if you really want to give 40k to them, then I highly recommend you do a session before the assessment.
can a muslim join an airline of other countries such as british airways or lufthansa ?
"I fucked up the approach and it's not safe to continue...time to show off my awesome CRM skills!"
Its better than trying to land from it, believe me.
Yeah I definitely do, it just looks funny in my imagination when applied to a real-life scenario.
how tall are you?
thanks :)
Lolol you said fucked up the approach!!!!!
on these days pilots are checkers
First
No dislikes! Dang.
Pilots do swear XDXDXDXD
We do.
AND the F bomb came
Except in the real world every airline seems to expect you to be type rated even though they know you are not. Three assessment in and in every case i was expected to know the ins and outs of the 737. Despite showing good crm not knowing how to switch from vor mode to app mode or the switches on the MCP panel or perhaps being 3% off the correct thrust in a visual circuit. It’s nonsense, £100,000 of debt to my mortgage provider and i just don’t understand how people get jobs. I appreciate the advice on your channel but this is all hypothetical and in reality every airline is completely different demanding different hoops to jumpy through and expecting an unreasonable amount of knowledge for people who have frozen ATPL’ s.
Prince Jaguar interested to know how you’re getting on? Also would recommend Flightdeck2sim - 737 pilot and level d sim instructor!
*hears mentour pilot swear* [N U T]
hes a grown man why everyone getting so hyped he said the f word...??
I thought this was suppose to be a professional channel
Bijo Sebastian it is mate, great quality, I mean, this guy is doing us all a favor using his free time to create this. He could've done much more other things but instead chooses to help others, ain't that wonderful?
***** See? He even responds in an awesome manner!
