Off-Duty Pilot Allegedly Tried to Shut Down Plane's Engines
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 авг 2024
- An off-duty pilot allegedly attempted to shut down a plane’s engines mid-flight. After an Alaska Airlines flight took off from Washington, a crisis erupted. Off-duty pilot Joseph David Emerson was sitting inside the cockpit when he reportedly lunged for the controls and tried to shut off the plane’s engines. The plane diverted to Portland for an emergency landing. He was charged with 83 counts of attempted murder. No passengers were harmed.
“The captain and first officer quickly responded and secured the aircraft.”
That’s a polite way of saying they beat the guy’s ass and threw him out of the cockpit.
😄😆😅😂🤣
Imagine if they were two female pilots? The guy could have easily taken the aircraft.
@@treasuretrails Your point being?
@@CityWhispererread the last sentence. Thats his point.
😂😂😂
83 counts of attempted murder? He never will get out of jail if he gets sentenced..
When
" *He will never* "
he be out by Xmass dont be silly
IF!? dudes going away. post 9/11 hijacking in the USA? dudes a goner.
Blonde blue eyed young white dude? Yeah I doubt it, probably just loses his pilots license and they make him get counseling or something 😂
And yet, any commercial pilot who seeks mental health treatment is automatically grounded. The airline and govt. assume that if a pilot never seeks help, they're just dandy, when statistics across the general population doesn't bear that out.
I've a friend who's a pilot and they can't even attend a family therapy session for one of their family members out of fear it'll affect their job. Crazy.
Mental help is a scam
They can go to family counseling. But can't seek treatment for any mental health issue. Husband is retired Delta pilot and it's a big problem.
yep, that's just a recipe for disaster
@@jeanaprewitt9658What?! Really? Why?
I will never get these people that feel the need to take dozens to hundreds of people with them when they try to take their life.
me ether, if you want to end your life, please don't, and do not take others if you do.
Agreed. I have bipolar depression and I don’t get murder-suicide cases such as the Germanwings one. If I can’t take the stresses of life then you can take your own life but to take the lives of others is just evil and cowardly.
because they think that it is all the people around at fault for their problems
Remember Jim Jones of People's Temple fame? He took a thousand people with him, convinced he was doing the right thing.
intrusive thoughts that he decided to do due to desperation and mental illness, "what if i do this" kinda thing.
83 counts of attempted murder,yup his goofy ass ain’t neva coming out 😂😂
And this guy tried to commit suicide while doing so. No shame from him.
He's a fed.
Bro think he a kamikaze pilot, the meat riding is craaazyy😭😭😭🤡
There’s always that one guy that ruins it for everyone!
That's what I was thinking. No one is riding in the jumpseat against except on training flights would be my guess.
I dont know why this still permitted. I mean didnt this same situation happened already at a fedex airplane back in the early 2000s. I remember a crew member travelling home ask to be on the flight and then tried to murder the pilot and copilot mid flight
@xmunrax so one event in 23 years. So you think we can't have jumpseat pilots anymore?
I remember reading that story.@@CLtech05
In 2015 copilot Andreas Lubitz, crashed Germanwings 9525 into the French Alps by programming it to fly at 100 feet. There have been other instances of deliberate crashes caused by pilots/co-pilots overseas. Flight 570 is suspected of having been crashed by the pilot, but until we find the black box we won't know for certain.@@TB-um1xz
Worse case scenario is if he were the one piloting the craft. Curious why he didn't wait until he was in full control of an aircraft.
He never would’ve been fully in control as he was jumpseat passenger. This is a short 1hr hop not a 12hour transatlantic crossing where you have a relief pilot,
@@Christopher-hg2yithey mean waiting until he was the one flying a plane… not waiting on this particular flight. They mean it’s strange he didn’t wait until he was the pilot on a different flight entirely.
@@Christopher-hg2yiI think he means why didn’t the off duty pilot wait until he was actually scheduled to fly a plane. Like as a captain or first officer. Not sure if they said which one he usually is.
This would have been much worse because he likely would have succeeded if this was the case.
@@Christopher-hg2yi I think it's safe to say steven was referencing a flight where this guy would have been active flight crew member instead of jumpseater.
I think he was hoping not to be blamed for the crash, he has his name to worry about. This was definitely the case where the off duty Fed Ex guy tried to take down the cargo plane with hammers.
Damn 83 counts of attempted murder even at a year each thats 83 years.
This guy has hit the jackpot
I always love how the news shows you exactly where and how to do some of this stuff. They often show in detail how a crime/scam is committed but won’t show the face of a wanted man. smh
Good luck getting into a plane's cockpit if you're not a pilot lol
okay but does anyone know why this guy did this?
@@zarrowthehorseI heard on my local news that he had taken magic mushrooms a few days before and it was still in his system. Idk if it's actually true
any plane/aviation enthusiast knows how that works lol
Like how they hide the ethnicity of the perp if it's a colored boy
Well he can kiss his pilot's license goodbye!
And his freedom
This could have been Germanwings Flight 9525 all over again. Thank god for the pilot's quick response.
it's a little different, actually.
@@zherin2063 Yes, it is. But it makes me wonder why the pilot didn't just wait until he was back on duty. Then when the co-pilot goes to the restroom, this person could indeed pull a horrifying Germanwings maneuver.
@@4seeableTVApparently he was ‘hearing voices and thought he was hallucinating’ so I think this was more of a psychotic episode than a planned murder-suicide, like Germanwings.
83 counts of attempted murder, that guys is never going to see the light of day. Sadly he must be having a mental breakdown or something. Thank god he was not the pilot that was flying the plane.
Everybody is losing their goddamn minds.
Nice language.
*NOTICE:* He tried to pull the fire suppression/retardant lever, not the engine mixture or throttle, although had he been successful, the engines would not start again.
Why would you post that "notice"? Why post an irrelevant comment? The video clearly says he tried to pull the fire suppression levers, and there is no engine mixture in this jet, it's not a cessna 182 on your microsoft flight simulator.
@@Simulacrum84Every powered airplane has a throttle control.
@@Simulacrum84 Piston propeller planes absolutely all have a mixture knob. Jets don't that's done automatically. And throttle they all have especially a big jet.
@@2011blueman Not many people watching this news anchor understand much about planes. Most people would think, "CoUldN'T TheY jUsT turN tHe EngiNeS bacK oN?".
Of course the engines could be started again. Fire handles don't kill engines permanently. If there has been no fire, and the survival of your passengers and crew is dependent on it, you just push the handles back in and go for an inflight start (either assisted by windmilling engines or by pneumatic power from the Auxilliary Power Unit).
I like how they literally show you how to do it in the thumbnail
it's not like the average joe is getting in the cockpit anyway
That's an old aircraft and not all of them have that configuration. Not that big a deal to show up that. Every aircraft has different configurations.
Not that old it's a regular embraer @@josephphillips1409
Its not exactly secret information. If you have even a little bit of knowledge youll know that engine fire suppression systems cutoff fuel flow to the engines to stop feeding any potential fire.
@@josephphillips1409 it is, but basically, the design itself is usually similar from one aircraft to another. Big red box. Just how to deploy it will be a bit different.
Letting the intrusive thoughts win.
Update: He did not try to grab the engine throttles to turn them off, he tried to start the fire suppression system
LOL I'm thinking that's a reference to that dude in Congress that pulled the fire alarm recently
?
Once you throw the fire handles engines can't be restarted. Engines have to be overhauled after that.
@@Mike-01234omg, ru serious?
That's already explained in the video.
We have been getting lots of stories lately of lunatics trying to open the emergency door. What the hell is going on?
I don’t know, but I’m good in my bubble. 😂😂😂
He was experiencing what experts now call the "Biden effect". Whenever Biden's name is mentioned it causes temporary insanity.
Yeah seriously though now they're probably going to have to search and put anybody that's going on the commercial flights through major screening just like a passenger would
There's an 'invisible epidemic' in the USA seldom talked about. Huge increase in gun-related homicides since 2015, increases in road rage incidents, large increase in commercial airline passenger dangerous behavior, increased demand for mental health services. teenage suicide rate is rising fast, etc. 'Something' is happening that needs to be identified and resolved.
@@jlvandat69 quiet bot 😅
Well I guess they won't be offering anymore courtesy flights for pilots in the cockpit in the future.
Scary to think what would have happened if he was a piloting his own plane and decided to do this.
it's not so much a job-perk thing. The airlines do this to move their flight crews around where they're needed.
Our great nation is becoming unhinged.
He should never get out
But for those curious, the plane can glide without any power as long as it has the required airspeed to keep it in the air. Tilting the nose downward will give you speed but you will lose altitude quickly therefore needing emergency landing. So yeah, good thing he wasn't the one piloting
Restarting the engines would have been the solution in this situation
The Gimli Glider was flying too high from the landing path, so the captain had executed a forward slip to lose altitude without lowering the nose.
You can just restart the engines though
Yes, however there was a case where the gliding did not go well and two pilots lost they life.
What they where doing? will having some fun pushing a aircraft to its certified flight ceiling.
Only happened because? The two engines flameout and sized up, they were unable to restart.
@@HenelingHe is actually trying to grab the fire suppression system for the engines, which the engine can't be restarted after that.
This whole world seems to be going crazy
He let the intrusive thoughts win
Imagine what could’ve happened if the situation went differently.
They would have enabled auxiliary power and glide the plane down to the nearest airport....
Your right lol
How far can a passenger jet glide if all its engines have failed? A passenger jet could glide for up to about 60 miles if it suffers a total engine failure at its cruising altitude. Here's an example. A typical commercial aircraft has a lift to drag ratio of around 10:1.
If I understand correctly, the plane still needs to be able to glide even if the engine goes out. It’s part the requirement before it can be approved to be use in public.
If he did pull the fire suppression system it would just be like he turned off the engine mixture
Probably the last time any off duty pilot will ever be able to use that jumpseat
excellent point, and a shame 1 idiot ruined it for all
Would it really be better if it was an ON duty pilot who tried something like that? If so the off duty pilot could be the one who saves the day...
what about a pilot in training?
Sounds like that is why the guy was there.
Why does noone believe that this kind of story is exactly the narrative produced to get the outcome desired?
Stop putting the cart before the horse.
@@larrybaker5316its always the way. But it doesn't really stop an on duty pilot from doing the same thing
That was a suicide attempt he was trying to take everyone with him
A plane can glide with no engines. A more drastic event would have been the Fedex repeat.
@@TB-um1xzmurder attempt. He knew exactly what he wanted to do and we clearly know.
My moms friend was in the flight on its way to Everett, then got out before it returned to San Francisco. She is incredibly lucky!
Need to check financial and mental health of pilots more often.
apparently airlines don't like pilots who reported mental problems.
@@RoseNZiegYeah self-reporting is a career ending move.
Perhaps pilots could have flight psychologists that understand how they think and understand their stresses. Then they could get things off their chest without being having to go to a doctor. Many professional have psychologists on their staff to help with PTSD for example such as EMTs, first responders and police officers.
83 counts of attempted murder GODDAMNN bro will never see the light of day….well in my community he wouldn’t..
out by Xmasss
In mine he wouldn't leave the plane alive. Sudden unexpected cardiac arrest? Then why all the bruises? Why do half of the passengers look strangely awkward?
83 years for pushing a switch is kinda crazy
Really a coward to try to bring people down with him
That's crazy
This literally melts my steel beams
Why wouldn't he wait until he was flying himself? Weird all around.
He was having a severe mental health episode most likely, there was no planning, probably something happened and that was done at last minute
he was in the jumpseat, he would of never flown the plane
*would HAVE never@@DimaTVyt
@@DimaTVyt the point is that he's a pilot, if he wanted to do this why not wait until he's actually in one of the pilot seats?
@@DimaTVyt I know he NEVER would of flown this plane. But being off duty co pilot means he would of had been flying eventually. Why this plane and not one of his own
Great to see this when I have a flight this Thursday.
😂
Inside edition always has the best stories
The guy let his intrusive thoughts win
This incident will unfortunately get jumpseats banned in the near future.
Nah
Absolutely.
@@Henelinghow? You know how many pilots use the jumpseat to and from work?
@@Heneling This 100% will not happen. It would ground flights and bankrupt Airlines. Pilots have to be able to use the jump seat. This is very unfortunate, but also incredibly rare. This type of incident is probably in hundreds of millions of flights. There has got to be a better way for pilots to be able to get mental health under control though and not fear being grounded. Whether or not this has anything to do with we don’t know yet. He was obviously on illegal drugs and mushrooms apparently.
@@calebniederhofer6529 in aviation we do not take chances. A pilot sitting in the jump seat is a special privilege and is easily removed, it would not ‘bankrupt an airline ’
Imagine ruining your life with 83 counts of murder in less than a minute for a stupid idea.
That privilege should be stopped before any worst thing happen .
I disagree with you…this is a rare occurrence.
No.
Geez Louise... guess he sure didn't want to come home.
Glad everyone is A-OK!!
Off duty pilot: "You wanna get nuts? Let's get nuts!"
🤣
Batman!
Michael Keaton was referencing a line from the song Let's Go Crazy by Prince, who released it 5 years before doing the OST to the 1989 Batman movie. Weird coinkidink.
@@ironbowtieinteresting tidbit to know. Thanks
How could he be that dangerously immature?!?
He hadn’t slept since doing shrooms two days earlier
Insanity!
He's definitely going on Santa's naughty list. At least the plane didn't crash.
Sounds like a really down to the earth kind of guy
I get it.... lmao. 😂
i wonder if climate change is the culprit?
hahahhaaaaa
Haaaaa
I see what you did there!
Tf that is not where they shut off the engine, it says eng 1 eng 2 fire suppression. Which does starve the engines of fuel by releasing fire bottles, but that it not the proper way to shutoff the engines.
this is what happens when you don't ignore your intrusive thoughts...
Sounds like a mental health crisis
Ever since the mandatory vaccines.
8300 years in prison and not a single day less!
makes sense that its 83 counts but just seeing that number is crazy, he's never getting out
Did he just recently lose his life in a divorce case? I would like a follow up on his motives. Crazy dude!
Bro we get it you're bitter and trying to justify yourself before you copy him in a few weeks 💀
How did you come up with that conclusion@@Penultimate1785
I doubt he was in a divorce as the neighbors had described the family as good people but you never know what goes on behind closed doors
Just like FedEx flight 705 in 1994 all over again. Probably wanted someone to collect the insurance.
I've seen that episode of Air Crash Investigations, almost as insidious as that guy who blew up that plane for insurance money.
Yup seen the documentary about it in the “Wonder” Channel.
his intrusive thoughts won...
This is crazy!
Reminds me of FedEx Flight 705
much more similar than the folks out there screaming Germanwings.
Pilots have so many lives in their hands, you never kno what their going through mentally though.... Pilots have intentionally crashed planes before. Guy needs to be locked up for awhile
You JUST said that "you never kno (sic) what they're going through mentally," but you think he needs to be locked up? You have NO idea what he was thinking. Pilots can't seek mental health help. If they do, they're automatically grounded.
@@jeanaprewitt9658 ^ This. Unless its marriage counseling, counseling of any type must be reported to the FAA, which usually means an instant grounding. A catch 22 of sorts. Thanks FAA!
He needs mental help, not to be locked up
@@_Vark_ right, lets ignore the fact that he attempted to kill 83 passengers lmao
And attempted murder can be punishable by a maximum of life imprisonment, so what's your point?@@jeanaprewitt9658
Max sentence. Not even a question. 5 minutes in jury room, in and out. Judge, we have a verdict!!!.
Well that’s the end of jump seats in commercial aviation folks.
Maybe he was having a mental breakdown
Everyone in those states is 😂😂😂
WELL, DERRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!
It's a evil world we live in.
its more wicked than u can imagine in ur worst nightmare.
do u remember that they suicided 5 NY police officers that seen anthony winers/killary clintons laptop files
This place here is not our eternal home.
I cant even imagine
Homie’s intrusive thoughts won
This pilot wasn’t dead heading home he was going to SFO so he could work.
Reminds me of that episode of Air Disasters where that pilot tried to kill the two pilots of the cargo plane he was hitching a ride on with a couple of hammers, except this guy wasnt that strong and really sucked. Lucky for the passengers this guy was a failure.
i remember that episode, scary
@larrybaker5316 Yeah. Not gonna lie the actor they got to play the psycho did a damn fine job giving off that Terminator vibe lol.
83 counts of murder?? He going be untouchable in prison!
Mans let the intrusive thoughts win
O.k. there has to be more to this story like why would he do that.
When your wife calls you mid flight saying: "Hurry home honey, mommy came to visit!"
🤣👌Dark humour
Now we have a motive.
He looks like such a normal guy
When you cant resist your inner thoughts.
What happened I wondered what made him do that?
My only interest now is how many years in jail he will be.
“An inside job” Get back to us when you know what that means.
@@raymondtendau2749well he's facing 83 attempted murder charges. My best bet he will be facing more to come
@@cwg73160 yea but why would some entity wanna kill ppl at random? what was the motive for the entity that hired him to do this?
@@1st-Umbrella-CorporationYou liked your own comment.
I think media could have shared this story without showing exactly what he attemped to do.
Why? We the people have the right to know!! And the more detailed the info the better!
you can literally google the info lol, he didn't type some secret password he pulled the big red handles.
How many years is that many counts of attempted murder?
This guy let his intrusive thoughts win.
Ain’t nothing “alleged” about this.
You said they made an emergency landing but the crew didn’t declare an emergency. They just diverted to another airport to land. But still a good video and very detailed good job!
In a case like this the crew doesn't have to officially "declare" and emergency. It is automatically assumed through the radio communications: "we had an incident with a rouge element in the cockpit, he is subdued in the back, request divert and law enforcement on park".
Tower answers with copy and priority clearance.
This translates as: "Ok were not going freak out the whole airport and airspace but get your ass on terra firma NOW, cops will be there, FBI will be informed, FAA will know, you guys will be segregated for interviews, the airline will come under scrutiny and the passengers will be subtly monitored in case he wasn't a solo party."
Sounds like "emergency" qualifies.
@@PrinceAlhorian that is true but most of the time it’s only an emergency landing if they declare one
@@PrinceAlhorian but some cases they could be too busy to declare one
It’s not detailed at all! They failed to mention the guy was tripping on mushrooms! Look it up
@@hevsoto damn I didn’t see that bit! I’ll make sure to get up to speed
Don’t understand idiots who have to take down others with them. Killing others is not gonna solve anything.
He acted on his impulsive thoughts which will now cost him his freedom😢
In this case, boeing's engine start lever is probably safer, because it's located right beside the captain and co pilot.
he went for the fire cutout, airbuses fire cutout is also on the overhead panel near the back
There should be a security measure where the plane cannot be turned off mid flight.
The pilots have to have a way to shut down an engine in flight in event of damage or fire.
That would be extremely disasterous if a fire occurs
It would be the same as not being able to brake in a car...i hope i dont need to tell you why thats a horrible idea
worst idea ever.
His lawyer after seeing his case: 83 counts of attempted murder You did what?!
Takes one person to ruin it for everyone else 🤦🏻♂️
I've read books about what happens to a person's mind and body when they don't say "no" enough, and this seems like an example of the dark turn that the human psyche takes when it believes its not allowed to set boundaries.
people sometimes have and extremely hard time setting boundaries when they were taught the belief as children, that if they say "no", they won't be deserving of love. these people tend to repress their desire for rest until they can't repress it anymore, acting on an unconscious impulse to sabotage their own work in an attempt to make it stop.
the neighbors describe him as a person that takes on all these responsibilities outside of his already intense career. this honestly sounds like a case where a man just wanted a break and wasn't considering that this would cost many lives. regardless, he needs help
As an aviation expert and a possibly future pilot, the makes me beyond furious. He absolutely has no regard for human life.
Maybe you shouldn't claim to be an "aviation expert" without any flight experience if you want to be taken seriously.
@@truthsRsung You can be an aviation expert if you build aircraft and design. Look at his profile pic, Boeing-McDonnell Douglas, just a guess but I would say an engineer who would like to scratch the piloting itch as well.
@@PrinceAlhorian ...I never put much stock in a profile pick.
My first thought when I read your comment was a Lactose Intolerant Dairy Farmer.
No need to get butt hurt here. You do understand my concern, yeah?
It shouldn't be an itch, in my opinion, it should be a basic part of your education.
Next we will have Lifeguards who can't swim, and chefs who eat to live, not live to eat.
Maybe we would have 373's that have a proper CG that aren't constantly held in the air by a computer if you spent some time with the birds.
Edit....Now you can feel offended.
Lol

WTF
Emerson has been playing GTA too much
That's crazy..
If the judge was smart he would give this person 50+ attempted murder charges
If this news piece ended with, he did it for the tik tok or to be viral. I was gunna lose it.
Plane crash prank gone wrong, caught 83 charges?
this is why you never act on intrusive thoughts! this is dangerous!
How do you know it was "intrusive thoughts"? How do you know it wasn't premeditated?

Grandstanding reporter for sure.
They shouldn't let any off duty pilots in the cockpit unless there's an emergency and they need a replacement.
It's how pilots get to and from work
@@TB-um1xz They can put them in the cabin.
This is why ill never get on a plane. 😂
Driving is more dangerous
because your scared of someone shutting off the engines?
He let the intrusive thought win.
Those drivers had that fast reaction time 😮
That’s not an attempted hijacking. That’s an attempt at suicide by plane crash.
