What if a Passenger was the ONLY one left to land the plane? Could a passenger theoretically do it, without ANY previous knowledge or training?
In todays Special video, I will go through the required steps that will have to be taken in the cockpit in order to set the aircraft up for a safe auto-land. There will be around 20 different individual steps that needs to be taken and none of them can be omitted or done in the wrong order. This all depends on the passenger getting into contact with Air Traffic Control and being reasonably close to a suitable runway.

I think every aviation fan has had this fantasy of being last man standing in a plane with 300 passengers and nailing a landing with ATC instructions.
I know I do.. Have had it before even watching any of these videos. Some how I feel like I'd be great at 'winging' it lol
ATC, this a passenger. Pilots died after eating Taco Bell food, so I’m flying in for landing. No worries, I’m a total pro.
Yes yes
@@danielaramburo7648 why taco bell?
@@eliyahu7777777 Taco Bell food is nasty and who knows what mysterious crap it’s made from. Also known for giving you the runs.
I love how in the beginning it is stated that of course this is a scenario none of us will ever face, but as it progresses the presentation gets more and more serious. I find myself listening intently and trying to remember everything.
It has happened though not a big plane maybe but smaller planes have landed with people with 0 experience
Odds are low but never zero.
@@DontAttme You'd have to get into the cockpit, those doors are bulletproof and grenade-proof
@@alpheendomination while yes this is the case maybe one of the pilots may have left the door open in some miracle circumstance
but the fact that if all the flight crew aren't available you would just not be able to save the aircraft
it's proven that a passenger can safely land the aircraft using autopilot so if there is a prolonged senseless motion in the cockpit the door should be unlocked after X amount of time since the last perceived motion this would result in potentially 1 passenger being able to save hundreds of lives
although this is a highly unlikely circumstance that the flight crew would just not be available it could still potentially save lives
@@epiceaston197 The doors shut and lock by themselves, I see what you are saying but cockpits are designed to never let anyone in who shouldn't be there (don't want a repeat of 9/11). There has never been a case of where a passenger has been the only person left with all the cabin crew and pilots dead or incapacitated, because frankly that only happens in the movies and in any situation like that the cabin crew would take control
Step 1 is very hard, I wish they could just make a big red button called "emergency comm" that will take care of all switching
😂😂😂😂😂😂agreed
Agreed, it looks like Boeing chose to make things more complicated than needed
Tower: Nervous?
Me: Yes.
Tower: First time?
Me: No, I've been nervous before.
There's some trouble in the cockpit and..
The cockpit!? What is it?
Its the little room at the front of the plane where the pilots sit.
ever been in a turkish prison?
(Johnny pulls the extension cord out of the wall socket, killing the runway lights, then laughs and plugs them back in.)
@@JSMCPN but that's not important right now
lmao hilarious
Who would have thought the hardest bit would be tuning in the radio
thought so too lmao
I knew most of the controls, but the radio transmission stuff 😂
Can I phone a friend (my boss’s husband)? He’s a BA pilot.
Miss Dog Lover I wouldn't recommend calling if he’s flying the plane, as he needs to pay attention to everything that's happening on the plane
massive lot of channels.. then again, I wasnt trained in it, but I can fly. well... uh.. get outta they way,, I'm landing now... lol
nah, I'd just pull in behind a aircraft thats got permission to land and sneek in.. lol
As a private pilot I often think if a passenger faces such a situation in a commercial flight is to focus and remain calm. Your attitude determines your altitude it’s said. Sitting in the seat remember the aircraft is still flying, wings level, and you have fuel. Aviate. Navigate. Communicate usually, but get communicating first in this scenario. 121.5 are your guardian angels.
But is this even flying? Seriously I think this is part of the problem. Ive watched a few of these video's and the pilots foolishly trust the computer when they should no just by feel and sensation that they are loosing altitude. ;
@@radicalmoderate2730 There's a misconception that our ability to to know for example whether we are flying straight and level in cloud is greater than our instruments. We are trained early on to trust our panel more than our own interpretations.
@@linkedinfred I get that visually you can not tell but every time I've flown I can feel when the plane is descending or Ascending, especially going going above and below a few thousand feet your ears pop
@@linkedinfred Thinking more on this, what I am saying is that Piolets practice these failures in a simulator. True these simulators are great and can recreate a lot of conditions. But what they cannot re create or as far as I know they cannot recreate the feel of loss of altitude, difference in subtle pressure changes.
What I'm saying is that Piolets should be trained to also rely on their senses, the sound of the engine, the real feel of the stick, pressure senses and feel the loss or gain of altitude and to trust those senses when their instruments are giving them wrong information.
@@radicalmoderate2730Actually, the feeling of loosing altitude is an illusion to. There is a video on this channel where pilots did not trust the computer of the airbus that told them they had a positive pitch because they felt like they had a negative pitch. This lead to them stalling over and over again and crashing the aircraft with no survivors. This i just one of the many illusions yoh can experience. The human body is just not equipped for flying. The feeling of "loss of altitude" feels the same as leveling off after a climb, so it isn't even an umabigious feeling. Trusting your body over instruments in a commercial aircraft is foolish in every situation you're not absolutely certain instrumentatipn is wrong.
I worked as Cabin Crew for Ryanair and will soon start working for another airline, that's why I wanna learn to land a plane. Cabin crews are not trained for that but looking forward to a long term career, I wanna be ready for anything and everything. Thank you for your labor captain!
i dont know so im asking but arent cabin crew trained to operate the radio?
Odds are with Ryanair your landing will be smoother than the trained pilots'
You might find some of the flight simulators available for PC to be interesting and helpful. You can run full intercontinental flights with some of those.
@@amisoftau2659 do you know a good sim? tried dcs, which is realistic, but is more fighters than just planes, and it requires you to memorize keyboard shortcuts. I remember i saw someone playing a sim where you could point at things in the cockpit to interact with it.
Mr Dino. I would sure like to think so. maybe next week when I fly again I will ask the FA's.

I once thought I could bring a plane down safely. Now, I realize I wouldn't even be able to turn on the radio...
Hahahahaah
Nope, me neither. 🤷🏻♀️😬 I'd be screwed.
If someone already knew how to fly and land something smaller and more basic, it might be easier to hand fly a jetliner than try to figure out all that automation, especially if you were unable to communicate with ATC.
Try an app called rfs. I had to watch it to the end to confirm that everything I learned from there is correct
I wonder if you could just text someone, and get them to tell you how to operate the radio that way.

tactical zombie awesome 👏
I have been a pilot with small aircraft. However, with 1.5M miles in commercial aircraft, I have often thought about how to assist in an emergency. This video is awesome. Thank you for having it. I look forward to getting through all of your videos. Keep them coming you are doing a great job.
I am a non-current private pilot. I, too, have wondered if I could step up to land a commercial aircraft if needed. This video was superb. If I established communication with ATC and they were capably descriptive of instrument locations, I would feel reasonably confident that I would/could follow through. At least I get the rudder part! However (question): if the cabin crew were unavailable, how would I get access to the cockpit if the door is securely locked to prevent break-in?
Driggs, Idaho
@@diann7675 "how would I get access to the cockpit"
Perhaps the crew chief would have a key? I don't know.
@@amisoftau2659on commercial airlines it’s locked until air plane is landed. So, if something happens to crew, then airplane will stall to the ground within few minutes. This Video is STRICTLY for entertaining purposes. Hope this never happen to any one😊
@@user-wr7lm9hy6q "(cockpit door locked until landing) So, if something happens to crew, then airplane will stall to the ground within few minutes"
Shall we call that, a little heavy handed on the security!?. :)
@@user-wr7lm9hy6qWhy would it stall so fast? The autopilot would continue flying the set heading until fuel runs out.
I have just watched it in case I ever need it. And I have stored the emergency frequency in my phone contacts, just in case. Thank you.
you come prepared don't you? you wouldn't be flying to Miami from DFW next week on my flight would you in case the entire flight crew blinks out??😎

LOL
We're pretty much trained piolets.
Better than not having watched a video about it!
Lol at that time, I'll tell them I have started watching the flight videos 5 years back and that gives me 5 years of experience 🤣🤣
@David Roberts every boomer ever: *no thats bullshit*
I’m a private pilot and aircraft owner so I come in to the scenario with a good understanding of the dynamics of flight. A few years back I had the unique opportunity to fly a major airline’s flight sim for an hour.
I had an instructor pilot in the cockpit with me (not on the radio) to provide constant guidance. I found it remarkably easy to land the jet. I was feeling pretty sassy, and then he said let’s try it without auto throttles and throw in some weather.
I was humbled in a hurry and found myself behind the aircraft once I had to worry about power adjustments and fighting with crosswinds.
It was still great fun, and I logged the one hour of jet time. 😉
Best video I've watched for ages. This was so informative and so exciting at the same time. You explained everything so clearly, I feel almost like I've been in a flight simulator. And the skies are a safer place for this video.
Since he is a flight training instructor I’m sure that helps being thorough and explanatory in being able to explain everything in such a way 😎👍
Let us know if you remember it when shtf
Imagine being in this scenario, and you open on this video while looking at the mountain you're about to hit, and ads keeps coming up
You nailed it, am dying.
😂😂😂👍🏾
😭😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thats going to be "WTF" moment..lol
You’re silly lol
I already feel like a hero, watching this.
me too ...ha ha ha
Exactly!
Yepppp
I wouldn't be able to stop myself fiddling with the buttons. Not really, great vid👍🙁😊
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen. You took a highly stressful situation and reduced it to an easy step by step procedure that anyone could do. Thanks so much for all you do. Keep up the great work.
As a 60+ yr old frustrated pilot wannabee, I LOVE this channel! I get to essentially learn new things about flying, and how some really outstanding flight crews managed to get their aircraft (and their passengers) out of some very tricky and, in some cases, highly risky situations... I'm enjoying learning all of this, and being able to "armchair-fly" with you through some very interesting situations. 😀😃😄😁😆
Working the radio is more difficult than flying the plane
Audio Engineer neither
Right , I'm screwed Ill just except my fate. I'm dying
facts
Blake Rowley nah i’m calling atc on my phone and asking how to work the damn radio
@@griffinmarks7418 huh lmao ask where the pilots stash is and smoke and listen to snoop till that plane goes down
The main takeaway - figure out the communication part or you're screwed.
you fire up the app. when you leave airplane mode, all systems shut down and the plane goes into a steep dive. you can almost recover stable flight position when you get hit in the head by an unsecured laptop stowed underneath the seat infront of someone without a bag around it. you die. end of story
@@spot1401 Take a down a notch, edgelord. It’s just speculative entertainment.
Nah he landed the complicated, but safer way.
@@spot1401 why did that make me laugh so much? lol
I'm studying to be a flight attendant, I found really interesting the different transponder codes, It could be really useful.
I have been binge watching all your videos and I live near an airport . I happened to find out the airport has a little aviation museum next to it and particularly today is open cockpit day! I got sooo excited to be able to watch this video and go see this in person ! I’m strapping my 3 month old on my body and getting into that cockpit! Can’t wait!
I love how reassuring you are. I was in a small plane(10 seats ) to San Salvador Bahamas (1980) as a teen. My brother was a copilot. Charter flight They were visual flight. But I could see that they could not. We hit a major unexpected storm over the Bermuda Triangle 🙄 There was no visibility and tons of turbulence. I had the Barf bag. Both my brother and the pilot were dripping with sweat and there was a crack extending my window upward shifting and it started leaking water. We got out of that mess in about 15 minutes. Of HELL. As a result I literally cancelled my honeymoon to Bermuda and if I can’t drive there, I don’t go.
Oh. My brother quit flying after that too.
Although I have not yet flown I think I can because of the reassurance you provide. Improvements in technology. Training. Regulations. ❤. I am planning a flight now.
BUT. THAT PILOT BETTER HE IN GOOD HEALTH because I can barely work a smart phone 🤣🥰
Frightening story to read. And ubderstandable that you prefer your feet on solid ground since then.
So did you book the flight you mentioned? How was it for you?
"Excuse me, sir there's been a little problem in the cockpit."
"The cockpit?!? What is it?"
"It's the little room in the front where the pilots sit, but that's not important right now.."

This video should just be on a tablet in the cockpit of every commercial jet labeled *"IN CASE OF EMERGENCY"*
Telling passengers and potential terrorists how to hijack a plane isn't the best idea.
Alixundr if you’re in the cockpit, then somebody let you in, pilots don’t just unlock the cockpit mid-flight unless it’s an emergency lol
@@brandonneiltaylor Well that would bring us to the terrorist part, and i think pilots would let those in xD
recorded on flight with screen on every seat with little bit addaptive feature which tells what next considering what aircraft is doing & what needs to and can be done
@@alixundr9519 - i think most terrorist would do their homework and took at least this video with them...
One of the best video that I have seen. Thank you for this. I am part of a Medevac team and usually ride in the back of a Lear 45 and we once had a situation where one of our pilot's lost consciousness in mid air. I feel better knowing where the different functions rest just in case.
Flying commercial I have always felt a sense I having zero control over my situation... and so seeing how easy it is to take control of the jet, even if the situation is profoundly unlikely, removes a lot of my anxiety.
I'll add this to my resume.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣me too
😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
*can land a plane upside down if I have to*
The more reason why airlines should have free internet so that I can RUclips “how to fly and land a plane.” 😂😂😂
you can always download RUclips videos and view it in Offline Mode
World Class So should the airline instruct all passangers to download this video and learn the procedure just before takeoff?
Absolutely brilliant!!!!
@@epicon6 well yes, instead of telling us how to use a fucking seatbelt
tompparaideri I think that would be a great idea lmao. Perhaps discount on flights for those who take the course and pass lol.
Great instruction video. I may never be in such a situation where I would be landing an aircraft, but any information is always valuable.😊
You, my friend, are an excellent coach and anyone would be safe in your hands. Thank you, very informative!
Great video! Old aviation joke: a good landing is any one you can walk away from; a great landing is one where the aircraft can be used again.
What part do we laugh at?

That ba flight , a Boeing 777 first crash for British using a 777, everyone survived but the plane was trashed.
I'd be the guy to accidentally switch to the cabin intercom instead of radio transmit as I'm yelling MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
😆
I believe multiple hijackers on 9/11 did the reverse, broadcasting “stay in your seats, we are returning to the airport” and such to ATC
Professional pilots have incorrectly positioned the switch during emergencies. Remember step one, "take a deep breath."
@@richardmcavoy6413 deep breath...very important. Also, disengaging the autopilot with the cabin speaker on and that klaxon starts going *woop woop woop* is a good way to make the entire jet smell like the restroom in grand central station.
Omg 😂🤣🤣
Superb video, and a special thanks to all the aviation software engineers out there for making this landing possible.
Peter is such a great instructor I've watched probably every video ever made by him, def my favorite pilot to watch...
Mythbusters did this experiment years ago. They first tried landing a plane (simulator) without any instructions at all, and both crashed into the ground, one of them not even reaching anywhere near the airport. However, with instructions from a trained ATC they both managed to land the plane (simulator) and even Adam Savage managed to land on the actual runway.
I feel safer flying in planes knowing that almost a million people have watched this lol
Edit: We now have 3.4 million people. The airspace is a much safer place.
Yeah! Odds are good one of them will be on the flight where this is needed!
still..you only need to get screwed once..!!!
When everybody feels the same way,,
sorry to inform you: fat chance YOU are the one called upon to land that plane. :p
so dont rely on anybody else, remember 121.5 radio and squawk 7700 code and the magical words "may day" :D
@@trippy._t2179
well i mean the "how nice, ~1 million *other* ppl watchend the vid, no worries" self assurance on top of the thread is ofc of no use if shit is about to hit the fan. :)
i wonder if all those keyboard warriors would indeed raise to the challenge if their life depends on it, because it would soon and without somebody else holding their hand. :) perhaps a nervous flight attendant is able to help a bit, but otherwise it is up to the person who steps in.
That was Brilliant, Thank you. I am fascinated by aviation, and somewhat terrified too, as air accident investigations have been a special interest of mine for years, and this was really helpful. I didnt know autopilot could do all the final stages of landing like that, apart from the rudder bits. That is incredible! I was holding my breath during bits of that, lol. I really like your teaching style.
Jag älskar hur du är tydlig med att det här aldrig ska hända, men samtidigt är otroligt seriös med instruktionerna OM det sker. Bästa pilotkanalen på YT!
I’ve watched this video nearly 100 times so if anyone reading this is on my flight we are sorted!👍🙏
That’s the spirit! Together we can do it. 😁
Come to puerto rico withe me 😂
Me too. The next video I will watch is the instruction on item heart surgery. So, no worries to the patient whose organs I will transplant. 😉
...and then it turns out you´re on an Airbus 🤔
Come to Brazil
As much as I enjoy watching these Mentour Pilot videos (and the full extent of my flying experience is playing Microsoft Flight Simulator) I'd have preferred to see Mentour Pilot acting as the ATC and an authentic nonpilot accepting his instructions in the cockpit. Now *that* would have been exciting!
Captain Joe does just such a video.....have a look, very enjoyable
I saw where another airliner guy did this same thing with a young woman he gave her 20 minutes of training off camera before having her try to land in the simulator she couldn't do it
I don’t think I could do this with just radio instructions and no flying experience. I operate construction equipment and semis and I don’t think I could tell someone how to safely and properly operate most equipment with audio only and no feedback as to what is happening.
YES! that would have been very cool
Yes, a 'complete rookie' accepting ATC instructions would be / could be dramatic..
Hand out the passenger parachutes..?
That was totally Awesome !!! I cant believe it!! I always wondered if someone could land a plane by themselves in an emeg with no experience with the auto pilot doing most of it , I also wondered if someone would put out a video on how to !! That's beyond Great of you to post this ! You are the Best ! Thanks so much for your videos they are always so informative! 👍👍😎
This video is awesome and easy to understand the step-by-step procedures in times of emergency. Thank you, Captain!

This was totally fascinating. Not sure why I just spent thirty minutes watching a video about how to land a plane, but it was truly engaging. Nice job!
Congratulations! I hope the wedding is beautiful.
@Marek Tužák “but it was truly *engaging* “
The instructor knows his shit. That why it was ingaging. I got here looking for something else saw this start watching stayed to the end. Iol
@Marek Tužák that went over your head eh?
@Marek Tužák @Marek Tužák The original comment contained the phrase 'it was truly *engaging*', so the other bloke replied 'how was the wedding?', its a flimsy joke at best. When you replied 'I wasn't talking to him', that guy you replied to was just trying to explain the joke. Get it now?
Absolutely amazing what auto pilot can do.
Thank you Peter.
The best explanation I have ever heard so far.. congratulations
“Are you a pilot?”
“No, but I play Microsoft Flight Simulator and subscribe to Mentour Pilot. And I stayed at a Holiday Inn.”
“Take the seat, kid.”
O7
"Go to the back and see if anyone is a pilot."
As a pilot, this was one of the best videos in this subject. The logic and approach is spot on. Let the computer fly, manage the computer and allow these incredible machines to auto land. Great instructional video for a very complex operation.
Also, don't freak out when stuff actually happens. The trim wheels wheeling around and the throttle moving on it's own could startle someone who's not anticipating it.
As a non-pilot do the rudder pedals operate in that you press the left pedal to go left? Or like a bicycle handlebars where to go left you’d push forwards on the right pedal?
Yes, using the AP extensively is probably the only realistic solution to this otherwise improbable scenario.
@@stevebroadbent5080 Well, it's the best one. A novice is not going to be able to handfly a plane to a safe landing. The AP will do it better, and just needs to be managed effectively. 90% of the work is contacting ATC, after that it would be relatively straightforward, especially if you can supress panic and if the plane is not fuel exhausted, as everything else can be troubleshooted and walked through as slowly as fuel allows. ATC would almost certainly direct you to the longest nearby runway to minimise any issue with speedbrakes or flap configuration. As long as you put the gear down (something the tower will be able to check visually before you land) and can put the plane on an instrument approach, most everything else is window dressing.
@@l4pin Rudder pedal aligns with the direction the rudder turns. So, pushing the rudder right makes the rudder tilt out to the right, which makes the plane yaw to the right.
Right foot forward, right yaw, right turn. Etc.
i love how he periodically looks back intensely and stares to make sure we understand
Loved it! Perhaps every commercial plane should have a novice checklist like yours written and stored in the cockpit. As a R22 helicopter student pilot I always follow my checklist by reading it as it is best practice!
Agreed. An emergency flight instruction only makes sense. Why not do it???? Especially the radio guide!!!!!! Stay calm and communicate- okay, but HOW?????? Oh yeah- this plainly marked emergency instruction post where most anyone could see it. At least to get the communication process started. Thx.

True! Many expert, and knowledgeable folks just cannot present their information to be easily understood. Great job,Captain.
Explain to me like I am 5
Not as complicated as I thought - great instructional video and commendation to the instructor.
Imagining getting in an auto accident where I'm unable to communicate. First responders look for ICE in my cell phone. In there they find the steps to land an airplane. Appreciate all your videos. All kidding aside I think what you present on this channel is a great way for non-pilots to learn and understand flying, putting aside the many fears that come with takeoffs, landings, and all points in between.
Passengers: Wtf, why we are going in circles?
Stewardess: Oh, our pilot is doing youtube tutorial how to land an aircraft for passengers.
it's a simulator.
😂
YOURE SICK 😭😭😭😭😭
😂😂😂
Man, I'm just live streaming the entire cockpit
Back to ATC and just be the hands.
“Omg the pilot is sick. Is there anyone in the cabin who can fly a plane !” “ YES I watched a video on RUclips !”
Would be a lot better than a passenger that has not seen this video on RUclips. 😊
Ok that means the pilot has coronavirus
Hehehe Hehehe sounds from the old movies ...
Move aside.. im RUclips empowered! Muahaha!
Now that's FUNNY!
You are such a fantastic educator and entertainer. Wishing you only success and happiness!
This video is helping me land the aircraft I am in right now. Thanks a lot!
Just want to emphasize that speaking back every instruction you hear from ground and confirming the step has been completed is super important. It was one of the biggest things I learned from my fire and rescue classes.
Closed loop communication!
So true. When I watch The Flight Channel videos, I am astounded at how rapidly the transmissions are spoken, often in heavily accented English, and I wonder how anyone can make sense of such gibberish. A few do speak plainly and carefully, but it seems to me that most should slow down and enunciate more clearly!
Very important indeed. Honestly Mentour should've done "in action" version of this video where he actually has an ATC telling him what to do, then he stops and edits the video showcasing the exact instructions, carries them out and constantly responds to ATC.
No matter - video is probably one of the best for this "topic" but we as passerby would have much more fun and stress (?) watching situation unfold.
So effective that the operating crews at nuke plants have been use "three part" communications at all times for a few decades. That and a lot of other "event free" tools are in use like independent and/or concurrent verification of all actions taken. (One person reads the procedure and describes what his next action is, pointing to the component to be operated, and a second person verifies that the action is correct prior to the manipulation.) Plant control room crews have gone for long periods without even minor mis-operations, like one recently went SEVEN YEARS.
In an emergency situation every operator will find a solution. Most important the passenger is calm and concentrated and does not ruin the autopilot.
They should have just 1 big red button that says " PASSENGER PILIOT PRESS HERE " and it turns the radios to where it needs to be. I feel the radio operation was harder than flying lol
That would be a good idea. Another good idea would be to press a button and suddenly pilots at an emergency central get all data from your plane so they can fly it from a distance in a simulator to land it for you.
@@aciidbraiin8079 Yes. The only concern is that a terrorist could get control of the plane through hacking or something like that. It would need to be insanely secure.
If there was a single big button for that . U wouldn’t be or feel like a hero after landing it ..
But yes it would help.
@@orchdork775 if you're already in the cockpit, good luck not getting hacked.
Edit: oops I didn't see the first comment. Yeah you're right.
Or if the button set everything up to land at the nearest airport
Man!!!! I appreciate your concern towards the passengers! Love u 😘
it's important for every regular passenger to know this piece of information. Anyone can be in this kind of situation. Thanks for sharing.
I'll prefer to push the *'Land at nearest airport'* button... 😎
Turbo Prop Flight simulator?😁
What ? Did you not learn to fly by the seat of your pants ? your missing all the fun.
That ADIRU alarm bell is also the alarm bell letting you know that the main battery is discharging. Good thing you had the handle for the elevator control wheel stowed, them things are a shin buster! Also, upon landing, why was the APU not started? Also, the rudder is only effective at certain air speeds on the ground, below that speed, the rudder is useless and the nose steering wheel is what needs to be used. I am not a pilot, I do maintenance on these things. Personally I would sit in the left hand seat to make use of the nose wheel steering handle.
Haha
EXACTLY LOL
"Both pilots are dead, does anyone know how to fly a plane?" the dream of all Microsoft pilots
not dead, but unable to land. 17 passenger fight to see ho as more hours in simulator. ahahaahh
"Who ate the fish"?
@@joelabreu5497 Everybody takes his laptop out, a LAN setup is made and a fighter-sim is used to fight it out. Takes another 30min of auto pilot flight and may the best pilot win.
Press y to slay it down.
Haha you are correct
Outstanding and professional job! A pleasure to watch your videos.
Petter, u are a good teacher. Thank you for the lessons. Very educative though I pray our pilots will always be available.
If you accidentally put the R/T and I/C nob to I/C, the passengers will hear your cry for help :))
omg😭😭✋
I wonder, if the switch toggles between RT and the IC, what button is the transmit button, or mic on/off switch?
😂😂
Or maybe the passengers are crying and posting Instagram stories...
@@donkremer6019 there's a transmit button on the yoke, but he said don't touch that. Just toggle the rc/ic button to transmit
Pilot Training
Hour 1: How to adjust your seat
Hour 2: How to enable Auto Pilot
Hour 3: How to Take off and Land
Hour 4 to Hour 200: How to set Radio Frequency
Must be set to R/T (radio transmission) not I/C (intercom) I don't think the passengers could be very much help. But who knows.
Boeing Sugar You cant, when its locked, its locked🚪🤷🏻♂️
and check the rear view mirror
Who cares?
@@dfguko you just did :/
This was incredible. You've made look quite straight forward.
This is your best video yet, Petter! Thank You!!
The real problem will be: about 10 men, all with many hours in flight simulator, will fight about who is captain and FO :-)
I read long ago on flight sim forum.. Every flightsimmers dream is for the stewardess to come on the speakers "ladies and gentlemen, we are looking for any passengers who may be aboard with some flight experience or knowledge on flying this type of aircraft, the flight crew have taken ill."
And you better believe it, they're taking it in manual all the way, and what was that, one of the gear lights was stuck on red, just need to take it around for 1 more try...
There's a few videos of bedroom flight simmers landing these proper simulators on first go, after thousands of goes on there PC, and every switch, setting and so forth being simulated for a decade now, minus the G forces, it's no wonder.
Seriously thought though, if a simmer did take their opportunity and insist on flying it manually, I'm not sure if they would be thanked for landing it safely, or punished for "wreckless endangerment" etc for not taking cat3 option as instructed.
You bet your ass that I would take the Cat3 auto land option. No time to mess around by showing off.
If you call ATC as a passenger on the emergency freq and squawk 7700 without their instruction, they’ll know that you have some idea what you’re doing.
Roftl
I’ve flown 100’s of hours in PMDG 737’s, 100’s more in their 777 and about 100 more in their 747, I think I should be part of the crew to save the plane
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you imagine if this happens and your now arguing with another guy that watched this lol
arguing about what ? you would be under ATC's guidance anyway and would have to follow _their_ wishes to the letter. :p
No problem.
Two seats avaiable at the cockpit, so just arrange who is the captain and who is the first officer😁😁😁
@@jplacido9999 I doubt that any beautiful fly attendant would be able to keep the 3rd guy away.. even with a BJ
@@gergister 😄😄😄 I have to agree with you 😄👍👍👍
I'd say Bro I played MS Flight Sim 2020, I'm already a pro pilot
Excellent. Thank you so very much!!! Downloaded the APP
i love your show Captain! being a pilot was
my dream when i was younger, but thanks for your show it gives me a feel of what its like being a pilot🇨🇦👍
OMG! I need to take radio lessons immediately. The flying a plane bit is easy.
"Please stand by to take a number to call, Tower."
"Who is this?"
"This is the aircraft wandering around above you. Can't work the radio, and you need to call me back before I run out of call credit."

great content - after looking up how to change the air filter in my car I now know how to land a jet-liner, amazing.
So glad you found it interesting! I also hope you managed to change your air-filter ok 😂
@@MentourPilot Thank you, we all know more about this then we did just follow instruction.
I did the same thing except how to drain my radiator to clean it 😂
Just watched this again. Excellent!
More than 50 years ago, I read an amazing book that sparked my interest in aviation: " 714 Flight into Danger". Now I see that the main character John Spencer, a former Mustang pilot during World War 2, who managed to bring a 4 motor passenger plane to earth, would be unnecessary today :) .... Seriously, your videos are a great job and should be shown mandatory (maybe in addition to this) in all flight schools and during periodic pilot training.
*Switches to Cabin Intercom instead of Radio Transmittor*
Yells *MAY DAY MAY DAY MAY DAY*
The Hijacker: *Oh theres one left?*
😂😂😂😂
😂
If that is the case, then time to bring them Hijackers with me back to Hell!!! LOL
😀😅
This comment made me wanna watch one of those "plane gets hijacked"-movies hahaha
Me: *is supposed to be studying for finals* Also me: ahhh yes let’s see how to land a boeing 707
😄😄
Hahaha me too 😂
737 and fortunately widely used aircraft.
for airbus watch Captain Joe's video about the same issue. it may even more realistic, as he acted as ATC while talking a total laywoman into procedures without a chance to look on her and the consoles, it was of course a simulator session. :) she landed fine but stated afterwards it would be a total mess under real circumstances in her opinion; to much stress and all.
@@rivenoak link
Good luck on your finals!
I just had my first fly simulator experience 🎉🎉🎉.
I am one of your biggest fans and I wanna thank you for all your videos and the amazing content provided. ❤
You, sir, are amazing 👏 I have never flown before, but I'm getting ready to fly soon
It`s amazing how these machines can land almost by themselves. Terrific video.
Except for the dozens of little important steps you must take, the airplane will fly and land itself safely.
@@jsmariani4180 If someone programmed the FMC they could use rubber manequines. Planes could probably be full- auto or remote-controlled already if the passengers could swallow it. Except when it doesnt work. Then you need a human to reach for a checklist to fix it like a simulator game. When this fails there may be a new accident video here soon. I dont think they are allowed to land manually without a reason like an emergency. The number of accidents would be through the roof.
@@trollmcclure1884 lol show me the airline who prohibits manual landings except in emergencies, me thinks you don't know what you're talking about at all
considering airliners landed manually for years just fine and still do
@@willcrouch8194 maybe it's not prohibited but "not recommended". Pilot doesnt see much of anything. Especially when the nose is up. He would be following the dials trying to keep the angle notto scratch the back... Autopilot can do it better. I'm not sure but it's common sense that they use it all the time. You'd need to ask one. If something went wrong it would be their fault. Someone would come and ask him why he was playing with their plane when his skill is mediocre to autopilot, risking lives of passengers without a reason
@@trollmcclure1884 You should hire a plane ( without pilot) and try it your self🤣🤣 And don't forget to share your experience if you are still alive then after🔔🔔🔔
For most people in this situation this would really be four steps:
1. Don't panic.
2. Figure out the radio - this is the big one.
3. Contact the ATC.
4. Follow ATC instructions *exactly*.
5. you have to *stay in the cockpit* until the very end.
a thought which might frighten as soon you are indeed "in command" of the plane, even just by follow commands from ATC. once in the seat you are responsible, you cannot fly that thing from the jumpseat and nobody else will bail you out.
@@rivenoak even if you have family dying back there just land that thing
@@PWLfr if you land, your family will likely live to see another day with you :) automated landing is very safe, you just have to follow all instructions to the letter.
if the plane is damaged, your chances are low already, otherwise it is a tense event for ~1h, ATC will move heaven and hell to find a suitable airport for you. if you are over the atlantic, it may take way longer :(
if your family is elsewhere and not onboard: you cannot hold sobbing phone calls with them. they will hear the news of your glorious deed or your tragic demise AFTER everything is done.
I think you'd need a couple more "Don't panic" lines in that checklist ;)
But first have a little fun by turning off autopilot and do some loopings and shit.
Bravo, Mentour. A Great confidence booster even for a confident flyer like me. Being prepared is the first step of survival. Great instruction cadence too.
Amazingly simplified and so cleanly explained in layman's language, would suggest that you also help people understand the steps to the action, correlating results to each activity. Awesome Vlog, salutations.. Love this channel, God Bless You as always🙏❤️😘👌🥇
I love how you kept telling us we were doing a good job throughout the “flight.” It was very validating and reassuring!
someone somewhere at some point in the future will be watching this on their WiFi enabled plane after being last man standing in it and having to take control of the aircraft by searching on RUclips how to land a plane and finds this video 😂.. kinda would be a lifesaver to an absolute novice tho
You seem unsure about yourself to need validation. Every person is unique in his or her own way. Don't ever depend on anybody, just do the best you can. God bless.
@@invista4134 Hey, the fact that they stepped up into an unfamiliar [WAY out of their expertise] shows great confidence. A bit of "validation" or the simple 'pat on the back' would go a long way to reducing the amount of "what ifs" going thru the pilot's head.
Validation!?! Oh please! 🙄
It would be figure it out or fall out of the F’ing sky! Landing would be the only “validation” necessary.
We would do a good job together landing the 🛬
Tower: what’s your position?
Me: I play left back in football
I love you're productions! Thank you for this very basic intro in landing a commercial aircraft. I know a thing or two that I did not before watching and that's what it's all about.
Amazing explanation, congrats!!!!
Me : Break break, Mayday mayday, both pilots incapacitated.
ATC : You're PIC now.
Me : Do you guys have Teamviewer?
I thought of the same thing !
Ahahaha
hahahaha :)
ATC: We don’t have Teamviewer but there are two F-16 on their way.
I know right. They should have installed TeamViewer.
These days you know you're on a true budget airline when everyone boards and the flight attendant says, "Does anyone watch Mentour Pilot?"
Ryanair!
😂🤣👏👍
Yes that would be the Safety Video!
This is a awesome video. Great information to have. You just never know what could happen. Thank you very much!!
Fantastic, very intetesting and riveting video. As a retired Business Manager I used to take around 125 flights per year worldwide. Mostly long haul in Business class together with internal flights in China and USA etc. Yet I've never been in a plane cockpit. It's wonderful to see how sophisicated the planes of today are. Your instructions are clear and concise. I was wondering how difficult it would be to land an Airbus A320 or bigger long haul aircraft given the controls and locations would be different?
