    You are absolutely correct with the Merc @ 25:48 being very rare. It's a 560 SEC AMG. Part of why it's so rare and unique is the interesting relationship between AMG and Mercedes at the time. Some of you may or may not recall, that AMG used to be a separate tuning company that overhauled already manufactured cars. You couldn't order an AMG SEC from a Mercedes dealer like you can now (Well, technically you can't order an SEC anymore, but you get the point). You had to order a regular SEC and then put up another order with AMG and deliver your car to them for an overhaul. The process involved multiple mechanical modifications to increase the power and improve the handling, but also hacking up the body to give it the flared fenders and sometimes even repainting the whole car while they were at it. The conversions were very well made, looking and working like that was the way the cars left the factory. When you were too rich for a regular SEC, this is what you got to impress your friends.

    What I always appreciate about airliner redundancies is that these aren't just duplicates or backups but webs of asymmetrically configured overlapping systems. It would take multiple of failures of different types in multiple places from multiple causes to get to a catastrophic situation. And also, rather than binary failures there are degrees of capability degradation. Many people smart people have thought about these things. I especially like the Airbus hydraulics design.

    Unsure if you've already done something like this, but I (and surely many others) would be very interested to watch a video about your journey in becoming an aircraft mechanic for the airlines. Watching through your series of videos has honestly made me seriously consider line maintenance as a potential career, so any insight you can provide into the process would be truly invaluable. Not that you are obliged, though! Every episode of Stig Shift is enough of a blessing as is.

    • @StigAviation
      @StigAviation  4 месяца назад +6

      One of these days, I’m going to sit down and make a very long video and talk about the path I took, and where my career led me. I would need to gather my thoughts and hopefully jog my memory. It’s been 25 years since I started, I’ve done a lot. I’ve seen a lot. Putting that into a video is a bit difficult, but I will do it.

Even though I have been through FCOMs, FCTMs, and AMMs my whole career, I have learned more from your videos in a few months than I have from these books in 20 years. :D Keep up the good work.

    My goodness this was a good one Stig. Thank you for talking about the airbus Nose gear faults! My goodness how cool is that 777 built in test function? You would think the EICAS would be enough but that maintenance access computer is amazing!!! Wow!!!!

    • @stellarproductions8888
      @stellarproductions8888 4 месяца назад +1

      You know the 777 maintenance terminal runs on Windows XP, takes a long time to boot up into the OS. But once its running, its solid, provides all the information that a maintenance engineer needs, to fix a plane, or figure out whats wrong with it. I saw him do a more thorough video on that terminal from start to finish in an older video, thats how I know that. But the 787 Dreamliner plastic princess has the maintenance terminal all built into the main flight computer, so no need for a separate terminal.

    • @StigAviation

    That was cool getting to see the working mechanisms that operate the flaps, bark for me dog, ruff ruff lol. I think its pretty cool how the flight computer shows the open and closed doors/hatches on the plane. And just when I wondered what that speaker looking thing was, you answered the question without me asking it, the ACT system for central tanks. I absolutely loved that sweet message that you gave to your mom, I 100% agree with everything you said, because even I know its true, as I also thank your mother for bringing you into this world, because you bring us such joy, she raised you right indeed.

    Hey Stig. Another brilliant, brilliant episode. Showing us and explaining the inner workings of the flaps in action was absolutely amazing and then the nose gear explanation with the diagrams was so cool, techno mumbo jumbo at it's fascinating finest and its this level of detail that makes your videos so great. Aircraft truly are the most incredible machines mankind has ever created. I just wanted to say that it's really because of you that the channel is growing. Once you combine our enthusiasm and willingness to learn with your knowledge and own infectious enthusiasm and willingness to teach, the result is truly amazing and captivating videos. You have a brilliant way of explaining things, and you are giving us exactly what we want in your videos. I'm pretty sure we're all here for way more than just looking at aircraft, at the very least, I am anyway. We want to know what, why, and how, and like I said, that's exactly what you're giving us, so in truth, it really is us that should be saying the thank yous 🖖

    its been a while but im back since i have my mums laptop since im on holiday in turkey i got here yesterday at 10:30 UK time and im here until the 30th and my birthday is the 24th
    first of all ive never flown on the A320 but i was expecting a charter flight with an airline i never knew about before called Freebird Airlines but i googled it and found out its a Turkish charter airline that has partnerships with TUI and then i understood it but weirdly enough i had a TUI A320 operated by Avion Express which i found out by simply googling the registration number on the tail and i remembered at that moment that and i got to sit i the pilots seat and not only that i gave the copilot my camera and the copilot took photos of me sitting in the captains seat and i got to hold the sidestick and thrust levers all on my first A320 experience and as i returned to my seat to get my bags which sadly i forgot one anyways (my bag of haribo gummy bears
    😭😭😭) but i also noticed while grabbing my bag i looked out the left side of the plane across from where i sat during the flight and saw the TUI colours on the tail of a plane and on the same planes tails it said *BOEING 767-300* i was geeking outttttttttttttttttt only TUI Nordic still flies em

When I worked @Sony there were certain people (asskissers, brown nosers to be nicer) that were always picked for product training even when it wasn’t their product & to perform a ‘knowledge transfer’ upon their returning to the people who actually had the hands on experience but never sharing to hold others back or to ‘have the power’ over others so they kept it to themselves. I applaud you for your respect of others & not be on a higher level than you coworkers. I could not think of a better man than YOU I’d rather be in a foxhole with.

    Another Stig Shift!!!!
    Dutch Roll is a stability issue. Occurs with strong lateral stability, but weak directional stability - Yawing motion out of sync with rolling motion.
    Works like so:
    1) Aircraft initially disturbed in Yaw, causes roll in the same direction.
    2) As aircraft yaws back, it rolls in the opposite direction. (Aircraft yaws past the original position)
    3) The cycle repeats.

    Flight attendant here... I don't have any experience sleeping in crew rest on a 787, but I do on 747s. I can only compare the two from the video. The 787 does looked quite a bit more cramped, but it looks like the mattresses are slightly more comfortable than on our 74s! I don't go up to crew rest too often, but it is nice to be able to nap a bit on super long flights if the need arises, or at least lay out flat! I'm curious though if the 78 crew rest area has the same type of emergency escape that the 74 has, which is to open a panel in the floor, kick out the ceiling panel, and drop down.
    Thanks Stig! Have a good one!

    • @StigAviation
      @StigAviation  4 месяца назад

      Yes, there is the same style of emergency escape, it will drop down into the main cabin.

    Another great and super informative video! I am curious, with the recent Airbus 330 electrical fire at Sea/Tac airport, could you explain for us the policies/procedures for ground support folks, as well as A&P mechanics, when a fire is discovered involving a aircraft? In the RUclips video, there appeared to be quite a bit of confusion. Thanks again for everything you do!

    • @StigAviation
      @StigAviation  4 месяца назад +2

      I believe that was an Airbus 321 and when something like that happens, there is usually a very quick response time from emergency crews. In such emergency situations, the most important part is peoples safety, if safety is compromised, then people need to get away from that area. But that being said if there is somebody that can respond quickly, because there are fire extinguishers all over the place, without putting themselves into danger then they would have. as a technician if I see something like that, I will try to save the aircraft, but I will not put my life into immediate danger unless I saw somebody else in danger, then I would do my best to save them or help them. If the airplanes gonna burn down but nobody has been hurt, then let it burn down. It’s just metal. People are more important to me, I’ll save people not the aircraft. Hope that made sense 😅
