Follow up on this video, this isn't the first time and won't be the last, I made a mistake! Oh no! Great point below by Captain CAVU. The windows can be opened during flight...I was thinking primarily about flying at high altitude, but the windows actually CAN be opened in flight, just like he mentioned. Our QRH does in fact direct us to open the window in a Smoke and Fumes situation, with a confirmed fire on the flight deck. My bad!
4:19 Myth 13 Cockpit Windows CAN be opened. You might want to look through your QRH for Smoke or Fumes Removal. If the source is on the flightdeck, they're gonna tell you to open YOUR window!
Also, pilots are always forgetting to Close and LOCK their window. There's a QRH procedure for dealing with it...just don't abort for it!
Good point!
Hello! I love the channel and I have a question. Im currently 16 with about an hour of flight time and i want to work at southwest. What steps should i take?
Glad you like the channel, and great question! If you want to fly for Southwest, you'll need your Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) license, airplane multi-engine land. The requirements for that are the biggest hurdle: sheer number of hours, flying instruments, flying at night, etc. You can take the civilian route or military route, and each have pros and cons. You'll also need a first class medical. Additionally, you'll need to fill out an application with Southwest on their website. They aren't hiring right now, but if you keep chipping away at the requirements, perhaps they'll be hiring when you've knocked everything out.
