You have probably heard the phrase TOGA in aviation content before but what does it actually stand for and what do the TOGA switches do? In todays episode I will go through the MANU uses of TOGA the buttons will engage with both the Auto-throttle, Flight Directors and Auto-pilot. I will go through 5 different scenarios so pay close attention and ask all your questions in the comments OR in the Mentour Aviation app, after the video is finished.
Enjoy my friends!

Mentour Pilot yes for the fist time i got it! thank you mentour pilot. Greetings from The Netherlands
Dear Mentour. Your videos are absolutely fantastic, but they seriously need to become 50% shorter : 10-15 mins max. All the best!
Your an awesome inspiration for me, I really want to be a pilot so I can fly on par with you in the skies!

What did you do during lockdown?
"Sat on my sofa for a year and learned how to fly a 737!" 😂👌
Bwahahahahaha you are my people. Bwahahahahah me too. Me too.
Hahaha
Facts!😂
My luck, I would end up on an autobus. Ha, ha. No, in either case I need a pilot. Crummy ones can apply. But this is fascinating. 👍😁
Armchair Pilots Unite. Let's form an Armchair Airline so we can fly.
As a former math and science teacher, I just want to say that you are a very effective educator. You can take your knowledge and make it mentally tangible and memorable so others can apply what they have learned. Many people can fly but imparting your knowledge in a way that other people can learn is a true gift. ✈️
And that is what makes an effective educator...
I don't want to be a pilot but these videos are so interesting!
And addictive
100% agree
Agree Brandi! Excellent
The end made me think of "This is the captain speaking, sorry for pushing a wrong button. Nothing to worry, we'll retry shortly" :)
4:34 - That white pillow on his left moved. 😂
Daniel Schein Yes, I was just getting ready to order one of them. Does he take his dogs on a ten mile run before his videos?
Pillow2 is rearranged off-screen between five and six minutes.
I once sat on a friend’s dog because I though it was a pillow
@@FlorenceSlugcat Oh dear, like the scene from The Sopranos. Dog ok?
I never had a dog but I guess some of them must make good pillows
These TOGA switches and the improvement of flight directors are a blessing for aviation : one can't imagine all the lives lost due to badly executed go-arounds (mainly because of excessive bank angle and stalls) in the past.
julosx ... and even with all these sophisticated systems designed for safety, we still have crews that would try to go around them. It appears that PIA A320 crew was way too high and too fast, still crashed. They’ve recovered those black boxes and let’s see exactly what happened
@@uwekonnigsstaddt524 The two crashes that caused the grounding of the 737 MAX were caused by a system that was intended to enhance safety, but the design had some mistakes that would prove fatal.
@@KnightRanger38 the mcas isnt created to enhance safety, it was used to mimic the feeling of Boeing 737NG series
@@elroynathanael6535 MCAS was considered essential for certification (it 'cured' a handling quirk in a small corner of the flight envelope). Boeing also claimed (and FAA accepted) that it made Max handle just like an NG so a common pilot certification was achieved. This proved to be a mistake.
But in terms of a system intended to enhance safety that caused a crash - specifically TOGA - check Atlas Air 3591 where a bumped TOGA switch led a sub-standard crew to nosedive a perfectly functional 767 into the ground from 6000 feet. Not really the 767's fault, that one.
@@KnightRanger38 A flight control bandaid =/= safety enhancement
Puppy: "shoot, I'm not listening anymore, I know how to do a go round".
20:05 I always have a great time watching this fella on the right wrestling furiously with the flap lever ;)
A bit unnerving isn't it?
12 seconds into the video and I can tell how Happy Peter is... his energy is amazing!!! he recently put his uniform back and I can tell it is a big thing for him... Congrats Peter, hopefully, I can hear you speaking Spanish in one of your videos...
The dogs are on ground idle most of the time.
:D
"Heard it all before"
Years ago I read an accident report where the captain called out “Takeoff Power” on a missed landing too far down the runway and the copilot though he meant “take off power” and pulled the throttles to zero. There are times in a flight where you have only seconds to get it right, and every detail matters. Good training and standard procedures save lives.
co pilot also should know enough to not set thrust to idle in a go around
1:43 You use this clip in so many videos, and I always find it funny how the FO fights the flap handle (not laughing at him, just find it funny)
My husband, a helicopter pilot, just told me that in the S-92 he flew, there was a TOGA switch on the collective, so he knew what that was. I knew TOGA meant Take Off Go Around from watching the plane goings-on on RUclips, but I hadn't heard of a TOGA switch. This is interesting. Mentour Pilot, I love watching your videos because you have a gift for explaining things to where they are understandable and many times, the other channels don't bother to explain much of anything, not that that makes their videos bad, or anything. I will write things down, then do a search on RUclips, or Google them to find out what something is/means, plus I have my own captive pilot in the house and he has amassed a lot of knowledge about flight in his little over 52 years flying choppers. He is now retired and says he still misses flying, sometimes more than other times... On his breaks, Mike would pore over military flying books and watch disaster movies on the TV, such as the flight channel and we would talk about the videos. Mike had an amazing career and I'm still awed by what knowledge he amassed over that many years. He flew in the US Army, went to Vietnam, came back safely, thank God and the flew in the Gulf of Mexico for a little over 48 years for the same company, which leased their ships to the oil companies. What an amazing life we've had here, in Cajun Country.🥰🤩
Petter you really are a natural born leader and teacher. You have the most incredible way of conveying information that can be complex at the best of times, but you make understanding it so simple 👏👏 The world needs more teachers like you ❤️🙏
I’m a bit late watching this video but just wanted to add to the many positive comments. I have no aviation background but even as a passenger, I find them incredibly interesting. I agree, many skilled pilots would not necessarily have your gift for teaching and I can tell you really enjoy what you do. You’re a good example of a round peg in a round hole! I’d feel very safe if you were the captain of a plane I was travelling on. An ability to teach can be improved with practice, but it’s a gift some people have and others don’t so much. You have it in abundance and for that reason I enjoy the technical videos - keep them coming!
Not a pilot but have an interest in all things aviation. At work I frequent Malaga airport as a mini coach driver, at home I have a reasonable FS to occupy my spare time. The tech videos make my sim time so much better, thanks Peter.
The Dog Dialogue was HILARIOUS!! Very informative, thank you. Love the technical.
I thought i knew everything about A/T. But Peter proved me wrong, i just learnt something new today.
I learn a lot from him but I forget within a day
You must be young
All that workload that you have explained in 25 minutes, you have it automated and internalized to run it in seconds... you have to be very skilful and train a lot.
Very good video, thank you.
Hey Mentour! I really enjoy this type of technical videos of the 737. I would love to see a video of you explaining the different autopilot modes like LNAV, VNAV etc. I know a little bit about them from doing flights in X-Plane 11 but its nothing like a guy like you explaining them. I hope to see a video based on that in the future! Anyway, happy landings!!
honestly, already what you explain in the first 10 minutes is already something very interesting I wanted to know for a couple of years and sometimes thought "well, will never get so detailled information, ...but would like to know how this really is..." Just FANTASTIC step by step we get all knowledge what happens when we get taken to the clouds!
Poor F/O with that flaps 01:41 😂 But he made it 👍
It would have been hilarious for Petter to call out "WD40 one application, Flaps..."
@@plasmaburndeath You know, I experienced similar thing on new B737NG full flight simulator in Vilnus Flight Academy. I had to use both hands to change the flaps position. Brand new sim. but it needs some WD40 🤣
How He can became a pilot, while so shaking...?
@@60BORI think he is fine, I was watching other videos of Mentor pilot with the same F/O. He performed very well with all the callouts and procedures. I think he is a good pilot. As for flaps, I think it is a Simulator issue.
Mayday, mayday, my copilot is too weak to move the flap lever.
I was a station agent for a regional airline 40 years ago. Two nights a week I had the graveyard shift which cleaned the airplane. In the morning I started the apu and the air conditioning. What a difference between our 737-200's and these 737's.
21:08 great impression of the wind shear warning
I know right? Haha it was spot on.
I especially appreciate your more technical episodes, as I’m quite soon to upgrade after 2200+ hours in the -200, -300 & -400 (freighters); more, please. Such clearly and well-explained presentations have a real enhancing effect upon my existing knowledge-base.
I appreciate you mentioning a Toga party from the get go
Not to knock on other pilots, but I'd love a world where every pilot was as detailed and caring as much as Captain Petter does.
I suspect that Captain Petter is better qualified that most pilots. The rank of Captain has to mean someth8ng.
I’ve learned so much from your videos. You really are my mentor pilot.
ArcticWolf i agree
He’s a great teacher
I love this kind of technical video! I've heard you mention TOGA in other videos and it's very cool to hear the details of how it works. :)
The flight director can be the ILS needles, it visually shows you if you’re too high, too low or too left or too right. The flight director can feed an input or steering command into the autopilot telling it what it needs to do to fly down the glide slope and localizer
My favorite switch in the cockpit! Great video as usual, and can’t wait to see you flying soon
I'm an engineer. I love technical discussions. I'm watching it a few times.
I have been waiting for this video for some time. Thanks for the vid, and your time walking us through these procedures. A lot of good information here. A lot to process. I will be going over this for some time. Excellent ! Thanks again !
Today we studied on this exact subject in 022 Instrumentation, thank you so much for the great presentation Captain.
I'm a couple of weeks late to the party, but loved the video because for quite a long period of time I was the Boeing engineer responsible for the TOGA switches in all models. Among a great many other things.
The 757/767 don't have TOGA switches, just GA switches, because the TakeOff function isn't implemented! And we had some problems with inadvertent actuation of them on the 747 and 777; I had to fix those.
And I still hate the color I was told to paint those thrust levers.
Does this mean you just engage A/T to take off? One thing less confusing to start with. Just like in the Airbus.
Fantastic as always, Peter. Thank you very much! :)
I think those pups have the knowledge to fly at this point! ;)
As the pilots of PIA flight 8303 found out it is a *very* bad idea to push that switch (equivalent on an A320) after you've ruined both of your engines by a gear up touchdown....
cant thank you enough Captain ! 😃 Your videos help me alot through my typerating , that one arm length concept made perfect sense 😃
Amazing episode, please keep on doing the more technical cases. Love them!
Always amazed at complicated stuff to know. Im 70 and just flown cessna 152 for 40 years for fun. Its just full throttle lift the nose at 65 knots . Very simple 😊
Wonderful explanation, I always wondered what exactly TOGA does. Thanks!
I very much do appreciate this detailed look at tactical instruments.
Thank you for the precise and well transfered knowledge.
Love the more in depth stuff about the systems! I wanna see more!
I'm a bit slow coming to the channel, but here nonetheless. I find most of your videos enlightening, pertaining to the accidents that have happened. I learned what not to do and if something should happen and how to address it. This is crucial because not only could I injur myself, but I could also injure others or something worse. However, your videos teach many of us about an aircraft, its systems, and the marriage shared between these on how they function as one kinestheticaly with its pilot I find invaluable. I truly learn something every day by watching them. Thank you for all of your hard work and the investigations that go into a troubled aircraft. It's phenomenal!
The black cushion has a label that says "Absolutely Fantastic"
Thank you for the video Peter! We would like to see the GO AROUND procedure during an engine failure!
Nice to have another technical video! I like this types of videos and your explanations
A few more videos like this and I'll be ready for the cockpit. Haha. I am learning a lot about aviation watching this channel. Thank you Petter!
Thank you captain! We love this kind of technical videos! Very much appreciated!
This was brilliant, Petter. I guess there are quite a few of us who like to know the real detail and you answered a lot of questions for me today ☺
Good seeing You again. Great explanation! Stay safe with air under your wings .
I was on a flight yesterday LHR to EDI. The BA pilot on our Airbus A319 performed a TOGA a couple hundred feet before touching down. I was totally calm, hearing MentourPilot's voice in my head explaining real time what was happening. Captain got on the PA about 3 mins later and explained to pax that because of wind he believed the aircraft was a wee bit unstable and that they wanted to try it again.
Outstanding material, looking forward to more!
First and foremost, you are clearly a true inspiration to your dogs...!
Love the videos. The technical ones are probably a little more interesting but all them have taught me something. I know I'll be a better informed passenger and you have addressed many of my curiosities from my observations when flying . One question, how are you able to measure wind speed and shears from the aircraft in flight? Thanks.
I’ve heard toga mentioned loads. Nice to have it explained. Thank you.
I has two go arounds at an airport in Banjarmasin in Kalimantan on one flight. They pulled that plane straight up and gave it full thrust and the plane was shaking. Third time we popped through the clouds just above the height of the coconut trees and bang we were dow. Lucky I has a six pack or more on board and the Dutch courage was fully engaged.
Hi Petter please could you explain the advantages of the MMR and the operation of EGNOS, GLS, and IAN approaches and landing versus ILS approaches.
Very interesting and full of technical info, plese tkeep this kind of video coming and thank you very much for sharing.
Videos about the systems on the 737, or videos about the physics are always the best
Love your handle, buddy. Speaks immediate humility and that's an admirable (as well as rare) quality in human beings these days. (either that or you're extremely creative and know how to quickly zero in on an untaken name!) Either way, have a great day!
@@michaelscott356 why thank you, I mean I’m not entirely sure I can take credit for being either of those things, 14 year old me just thought it was pretty funny, and 19 year old me doesn’t care enough to change it I guess 🤣. That’s a lovely comment, hope you have a good day too 👍👍
Really enjoyed and understood your TOGA explanation. 👍
Very enjoyable. Love technical details. Thanks 👍
As things start to look up (pun intended) in the aviation (I am hopefully on Ryanair FR3882 Luton to Malta 2/7/2020) want to thank Mr Mentour for keeping us educated, amused and entertained in last few months
Especially liked the home video one!
Cheers mate Happy flying!
Things are looking up. Good luck to all aspiring pilots.
In gliding we sometimes do out-a-landings, not so frequent in commercial aviation, except that famous one in Gottröra.
Respect to the Boeing engineers who designed these systems. Quite a task to get the user interface natural for the pilot.
This type of content really hit the spot. I appreciate it... Feed me more
I'm not trying to become a (real) pilot but I'm interested in procedures in aviation on different planes. So more technical videos are more interesting for me. Keep going.
Love the detail. Thank you.
I really love these technical videos..!!
Big like for the technical stuff. Thanks!
Very informative and interesting. I enjoy these more technical videos.
Press TOGA,
Sheet (toga) drops from overhead compartment,
"Louie, Louie" plays on the intercom,
Nope... that doesn't seem right, 🤔
Better watch the video. 😏
Toga toga toga!
Animal House!!??
Exactly where my brain went
Great presentation as usual however it would have been good I think to mention the 'gear up' sequence SOP for go around call on approach. Thanks again.
Great video Mentour very informative my friend
Love love love your videos! thank you!
I am happy for you going back behind the yoke but man will I miss the frequent updates on the channel.
Thank You one more time for a very informative video! Adapting these techniques to my Sleigh flight maneuvers keeps the reindeer very happy!👍❤🎅❤👍
Absolutely priceless comment, Santa. 😉
More this kind of videos! Loved it!
It is great you do more technical videos. :D
LOVE these technical videos! Patrean Brian
Good explanation.Glad to see that you hopefully be returning to the air for real soon.Takk Petter.
Good and informative. Happy landings.
Excelent Mentour, great info. (May be you forgot the "gear up" call during the go around?) Saludos
Pilot monitoring will take care of that.
Mentour you should have done this video dressed in a Toga!
THAT WOULD BE KELSEY OF @74GEAR :-)
One of the best video, thanks!
I have to say, having watched many MANY of your videos, seeing you and Lorenzo in the cockpit only makes me nervous!
Very informative. Thanks!
Thanks Peter. I truly enjoyed the greater technological type of video.
Superb Explanation 👌
Thank you Petter! Great content & style. I don’t fly, though my father & uncle were WWII aviators - genetic fascination 😉
nice content..very informatif..tks for your video
While you were saying "Wind Shear", the Brownie had a "Gravity Shear". HA HA HA! (20:53)
Your technical videos are my favourite videos 🤓
No way how you explain. I love you!
Keep up the technical videos👍🏼
Good One!
I love your videos! Aviation enthusiast here!
Just doing a refresh on this info, but had forgotten the challenge of not being distracted by the pups. :)
Love the tutorial very help full. Was a it distracted by your dog don’t see it moving 😮
I sure was thankful that one night. We couldn't have been 10 ft from touchdown when the strong headwind was suddenly revealed to be actually from a strong downdraft. We bounced pretty hard right before some disturbing roll and yaw. Oh the relief to hear and feel what I am pretty sure was max thrust, along with the reassuring rotation of takeoff. Second time was an exemplary smooth landing. There were passengers that got super mad at the go around, cursing the pilots' ineptitude. Thankfully, the very image of a drill sergeant (much larger than they were) stood up with his stern, even, commanding voice emanating from his impressive beard: "That there was a very strong, invisible weather event. Our pilots just now saved us all from the certainty of a hellishly inconvenient crash landing, and very possibly saved everyone here from our own untimely closed-casket funerals. So you can just go ahead and keep it shut now." And they sure did.
That flight itself was the most beautiful I've ever taken, departing early, weaving low and slow through amazing thunderstorm cells scattered just densely enough across the entire Midwest. My neck hurt afterward purely because my eyes were so inextricably glued to that intoxicating scenery.
I stuck around to thank the flight crew for their quick action, but also for that absolutely amazing winding cruise through these stormy islands of god's own power and majesty.
(If only I had my current phone with its amazing low light video back in 2007... 08? I didn't get any usable video or even stills from the potato I had with me then.)
That guy who spoke up is my kind of guy! I did the same sort of thing on a stopover at a hub when people started to grumble when we were told that our plane needed to de-iced again, but I was talking to the announcer and made the remark that was all right-take all the time you need to get rid of the ice because I would like to get home safe and alive. The waiting area got quiet after that. Sometimes, even devout cowards like I can say effective things... 😁
