I was on a flight with lightning strike several years ago, it was LOUD. The pilot came on and said all systems are normal and just kept going.
You can tell by the voice on comms those dudes are SWEATING in the cockpit.
Seemed like a combination of reactions. I think he was upset with ATC, then the lightning strike shook him. After all that he and his equipment probably weren’t in the best shape to ensure the safest trip possible. Total speculation, of course. I wouldn’t blame though…
never thought i'd see the comments being butt hurt about a pilot doing his job. it's evident y'all know nothing
Bingo, Brad. Bunch of people sitting on a couch at home, comfy cozy (like me) apparently know as much, or even more than these guys flying through bad weather at 9000 MSL with passengers on board. Clowns…
Wonder how bad that lightning strike was, they declared an emergency pretty fast.
I don't want to question their decision, but I am curious of what breakers tripped, what warnings came up, and if any AC bus dropped out.
@@ricardokowalski1579 that's my question too! It seems that everything was working on the plane, so why return!?
@@PetrolHeadBrasil because "seems it's working" is not the same as "i trust this" to work. 😁
Maybe just a smell? Maybe they pushed in the breakers for the radios and instruments, but did not dare to push in the high current items (heaters, de-icers) without a check.
Love to have heard that other pilot cut back on the air waves and tell the tower “told ya so! “
You did watch the part where he said the worse weather was where they werent flying through?
I was staying at a hotel by the airport when this happened, the weather was pretty active.
That was a wicked storm. Thunder lightning hail and winds were gusting 50 mph. It started off with just rain (grn) and then it quickly formed to crazy lightning with heavy rain (red).
This pilot, did not sound happy with this controller at first.
The pilot did the right thing.
I was on the flight we we wear struck by lightning right after takeoff i havent seen the boarding pass since I was searching my desk for a password
Details very very small. Did you make this on a huge monitor?
ATC is /was a little pushy ,demanding and got the plane bit by lightning w/emergancy .
Aircraft get struck and are often part of the discharge. Sounds like the pilots were mad at ATC for not sending them south.
Agreed, not sure how they knew what the weather was to the south anyway, they were never facing that direction so couldn't have seen anything on their weather radar.
Or it may be company SOP to land for a maintenance check after a strike.
“Flight, try SCE to AUX”
Why would Approach have a better idea of the weather than Departure???
Partially because he had pilot reports and may be getting his radar information from different sources. Also, Approach and Departure are on different frequencies, may cover different parts of the airspace, and may be getting reports from pilots that differ.
I've noticed that fuel remaining is sometimes reported in hours, pounds, or kilograms. Is there no standard? Seems like you'd want to know both time and quantity. Anyone know out there?
hours/time: how long the plane can be in the air for ATC. Pounds/kilograms: for emergency/fire planning. So, to my understanding, depends on type of emergency on what is needed. Like for medical, weight is not needed (unless overweight landing?). Time depends on multifactors that atc doesn't have thus why providing weight doesn't cover time.
Oh wow, this happened on the day of my checkride.
Wonder if the pilot was “nervous” due to the WX and didn’t have an actual strike just got pissedthe control didn’t give him his turn? Sounded scared when he said “ you’re flying us into bad weather” then BOOM emergency
Yep, drama queen for sure.
It's too easy to identify a lightning strike, and if no evidence for the emergency declaration, then the pilots would be in big trouble.
@mattbaber1980 So you're an experienced pilot? One who can speak on these matters as to whether a professional is a drama queen or a pilot professionally trained and experienced to know what is what, is that you? Or are you a tough guy with fantasies of being a pilot but never will be?
@@aflaz171 Aircraft get struck by lightning all the time. Unless you have system failures, then there is absolutely no reason to return to the airport!
As for being a pilot, no thanks. General aviation is cool, but I wouldn't want to fly one of those big jets!! 40 or 50 years ago I'm sure it was challenge and a very satisfying job, but these days with the exception of take off and landing, all the automation makes it look monotonously boring for 95% of the day.
@@MattyEngland - You are implying that there were no system upsets or failures? The pilot didn't declare an emergency for no reason.
Why dont say Mayday?
no need to say mayday x3 unless u r ganna crash, so y would they?
@@NathanChambers lmfao. Thats not why mayday is said brother, its said to more or less tell everyone else on frequency to stfu for a minutes to let them speak. If you are going down its already too late to say mayday
By saying declare an emergency is equivalent to a mayday call. It is common to say this in the United States compared to the rest of the world.
@@duk2kBS. A mayday is imminent loss of life or worse. Pan pan pan is the protocol for an emergency where loss of life has neither happened not imminent. It can be scaled up to a Mayday if necessary. Standard radio/comms procedure all around the world for aircraft, seacraft etc.
Mayday has fallen out of use.
getting struck by lightning is not unusual for an airliner. they are designed to absorb strikes without any damage. the pilot did not report any damage or any malfunction of any kind. Yet wanted to come back home. He better have had a good reason. And if he did, he is suppose to declare the reason. The idea that a pilot can abort the flight at any time for any reason, with no justification other than his own feelings, is simply not true. He can, but he won't be working for for long.
Yes they can. All large airlines have no fault policies in place to protect pilots.
So.... came back, in an emergency, becaaaaaaaaaaaause....?????????????
He elected it was the appropriate action. Don’t second guess the PIC unless you are in the cockpit.
Panties in a bunch
@@davestillson2269 for sure! But if he had any mal function in the cockpit because of the lightning, he supposed to tell to the ATC... That's my question. I just want to know what happened ;)
@@MattyEngland probably... lol
Because 110 people on board. Period.
I live in the flight path of that aircraft. It was definitely the 1st lightning storm of the year and it was exceptionally brutal, with high winds, heavy lighting and moderate heavy hail.
I was going to comment the same, the storms seemed to get gnarly really quick, was a solid start to the year for us
Pilot was being a prima donna
🙄 Pilot gets panties bunched, comes back because lightning hurt his fefe's.
You are aroused. That is disgusting.
