Airline Pilot DIES On Takeoff!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 дек 2022
- What happens if an airline pilot has a heart attack on takeoff? How fast can they land to help him? Is there a doctor onboard? Can the other pilot safely land the plane? We're going to find out in this video.
American Airlines Envoy Flight 3556 was scheduled to fly from Chicago O'Hare to Columbus International Airport when the pilot flying in the left seat experienced a heart attack on takeoff and became incapacitated. The flight made an emergency return to Chicago O'Hare. This video was made with the utmost respect for all individuals involved and my hope is that it explains to passengers a little bit about what happens in emergency situations such as this.

THIS is why the concept of reducing airliners to just one pilot is dangerous. RIP Captain. Great job F/O.
thats why the FAA is trying to crack down on health to insane standards
And why 65 is too fucking old.
@@OnceShy_TwiceBittenno not really
@@OnceShy_TwiceBitten
age has nothing to do with it.
the only factor age has is the older you are. the bigger the chances are at having certain health problems.
the fault comes from letting the pilot continue flying flight after flight when such a health problem has been diagnosed or dicovered.
for a person to just die like that on take off. that means it has to be a long term pre existing condition.
if it really was just an anurism or a random heart attack.
then it wouldn't matter if he was 20 or 80. it just happened randomly and unexpected wich means he was healthy. sometimes things just happen.
Nobody is proposing a 1-pilot concept without a backup. All the 1-pilot evaluations have a backup in case of pilot incapacitation, with technology that goes from remote operation to automatic emergency autoland, systems that don't exist in current airplanes (although emergency autoland is a certified option in some very high-end general aviation airplanes). Which basically means that today's airplanes will never fly 1-pilot. Oh and by the way, emergency autoland has nothing to do with the current autoland systems in airliners. It is a totally autonomous system that is activated manually by a person (a passenger in the general aviation planes, the pilot himself in a 1-pilot airliner) or automatically upon lack of response from the pilot and takes over everything, from ATC communications (1-way) to selecting a suitable airport based on airplane performance, terrain, fuel remaining, weather, etc., to 3D navigation to the selected runway, manages power, flaps, landing gear, lands, manages ground steering and brakes, and stops on the centerline.
This is why there should be 2 pilots on these airplanes at all times
big planes this is going to be a thing.
but in a 6 seat little single engine plane.
or a bigger dual engine.
you aren't going to be able to afford a second pilot.
There is.
This is an excelent example why to push for automation…( Airbus ) than you will not need pilot who can die unexpectadly!
YES!
90% of aircraft losses are caused by human error.
Man that Co-Pilot did an amazing job. Imagine he has to notify the flight attendants, stay in radio contact, prep the aircraft for landing, and help his Captain any way he can. May the Captain R.I.P.
I’m just a private pilot and no doubt there is a lot going on for that copilot. One time I moved up from a 172 just into a piper PA 28. It had an extra hundred horsepower. I took off and I was so far behind the airplane, it was unbelievable. We were already over a common checkpoint before I could even get the radios tuned to the right frequency. The thing was going so fast there’s definitely something to be said for being ahead of the airplane, or being behind the airplane so in this case in a jet they’re going very fast and of course the copilots LaserJet a lot, so I’m sure he’s used to it but to your point there is a lot happening at once for one person to handle.
Not to mention he’s probably still full of fuel.
That co-pilot was a training captain so he knew what to do
Yes, incredibly calm and efficient. Bravo
Piloting an airliner alone with a medical emergency, or being an ATC at a very busy airport having to deal with this situation, has to be extremely stressful. These people pulled it off perfectly.
Agree
Lol
Yes, but sadly the old method of hiring the best and brightest ATC's and pilots is being abandoned due to DEI, which is insane. I call that acronym DIE because unfortunately that is what it is going to lead to for unlucky passengers and those on the ground as well.
RIP to the pilot. The co-pilot did an incredible job staying composed during this.
Certainly did!
But I won't be flying because there's apparently no medical intervention on a plane
@@sharonchenoweth6817 What? That's ridiculous. Flying doesn't include a hospital on board. Seriously, you must miss a lot in life with that mindset.
Was the pilot vaccinated?

Who’s the pilot?
You should get hazard pay having a channel that pilot respond. You are brave Sir. I will not list my TT or years flying. lol
To the Narrator: Quit popping the mic ...put it at a 45 still pointed at source but you'll be talking it at a 45º angle to it. Mic pop and breath rush are very annoying....stop it.
The best lesson I was taught when I was learning to fly is, no matter what happens, fly the plane. Textbook example, well done.
Such a professional response to an unexpected situation. RIP to the Captain
My grandfather died from a heart attack while piloting a Braniff 747 flying from Honolulu to Dallas in 1979. Unfortunately, my grandmother was a stewardess for Braniff and was on the flight as well. Must have been horrible for her. I was around 8 at the time so we've never talked about it.
You should talk about it. Trust me on that.
I remember when this happened. March 3, 1979 if I recall (I happened to be flying to DAB on EA to visit my grandparents that day). He was flying N601BN, “The Great Pumpkin”, that gloriously orange beast, arguably the beloved 747 ever, from HNL to DFW, and they waited until after arrival to break the news to your grandmother. I remember thinking how utterly sad, then realizing how precious it was they weren’t thousands of miles apart. They were together, working on board the same aircraft, each of them living their shared dream at the moment he passed. Of course it was a shock I’m sure when she realized he was gone, but yet she was right there when he left. And she could say goodbye in the setting that brought them so much joy over the years. And if you were to ask her, she’d probably say that was how he was meant to go.
@yvonnemurray5537 May not apply in this situation bc I don't know how many years ago this happened. But critical stress debriefings actually makes things worse. If you individually have a problem you should talk to someone. But stay away from the group things. I was an EMT for a long time. Saw a lot of horrible things. The best thing is to resume normal life. They started doing those CSD at the end of my career and it was a disaster. It broke up 2 marriages. 3 kids in one family 2 in the other. Both went on to be remarried. Divorced, more kids ruined a disaster for our small town.
💜💜💜
So sorry 😔
As an AA frequent flyer. I end up on these aircraft quite often. These pilot’s are the hardest working of the fleet and it’s a stressful and thankless job. Hopefully they were able to say he passed while doing what he loved. Whenever you can, thank the crew for a good flight. I have been told by crew members before that it means more than you may think.
Dr. Drew talks about the recent study which came out showing that 50% of the younger men who took the gene therapy injections and had cardiac symptoms as a result, have been shown to have PERMANENT heart damage.
I have always thanked the crew and captain if I see them on way out of plane. They do an amazing job!
. What gene therapy? R u saying this pilot had gene therapy & the heart attack was caused by it? Please clarify as u have me really wondering!

As a military pilot for 35 years, the magic word is always “EMERGENCY” …
Otherwise, the First Officer did a great job!
@johnbrandon859.
Not for Americans. The magic word is always AHHHHH
Internationally the magic word is "mayday" x3...
@@Arbyfilmaren mayday is not used by USAF pilots … it is emergency … we ain’t fuckin’ sailors
Airline pilot here. In a single pilot operation, sometimes this can get missed. The controller likely declared the emergency for this aircraft due to the situation. Yes, technically he should have, however, it was likely already done for him. He was extremely busy flying the aircraft, briefing everyone, getting setup for the approach, dealing with a possible overweight landing, running checklists, coordinating with paramedics, dealing with Chicago airspace, and much more. I'm sure the FAA will overlook that my friend.
@@johnbrandon859 well, this wasn't an airforce flight... ;)
In my country, pilot incapacitation training takes place annually in the simulator. It still catches you off guard as it is a surprise exercise.
A HUGE THANK YOU to ALL PILOTS and crew and the Tower who work so well to ensure that situations such as these and air travel is as safe as it is. God Bless You All Always.
Pilots are trained for this situation and that is exactly why there is a first officer ready to take over. I have a friend who flies as a first officer for American Airlines in CRJ planes just like this. She is a great pilot and should be a captain soon.
@@terrallputnam7979 Hopefully their training has been updated to include the growing possibility that a pilot might die suddenly.
HE WAS COVID JABBED! HIS OWN FAULT!
The captain that died was a DEC (Direct Entry Captain) who was just hired and was flying his IOE (Initial Operating Experience) with a check airmen who is a senior captain in the right seat. That is one reason the right seat captain handled the situation well.
Direct entry captains are hired when an airline does not have enough first officers that are senior enough to upgrade to captain. So they hire DECs who are usually coming from other part 121 airlines.
So there were two captains on the aircraft, the most junior one is the one who died. Basically an instructor in the right seat with a student in the left seat who became incapacitated. So less of a dramatic situation then if the first officer was a new hire himself and now had to deal with an incapacitated captain.
I have 11.5 years flying for Envoy mostly in the EMB 145.
Thanks for the additional details

Why haven’t you taken the flow then to AA? Last I heard it was 7 years.
@@AutopilotAndChillCan’t answer for this pilot’s circumstance but I do know some logical reasons. First, regional airline pay has increased dramatically. Second, it’s tough to take a step back when starting over @ a new airline. Flying as a reserve pilot sucks as does junior lines after reserve. Believe it or not, some actually love regional flying which is much more challenging. Lastly, the pilot’s age is unknown. If he’s less than 10 years from retirement, jumping to the majors becomes questionable.
Thank you very much for this additional info.
Wow! What a difficult and stressful situation. Props to the co-pilot for staying calm and landing as quickly as possible. R.I.P. to the pilot.

@metsfan769
Supposing you're not wearing a hat?
How funny!!!🤦🏼♀️🙄
After 30,000+ hours flying a variety of airliners, I wanted to correct your statement that pilots don’t train for having the other pilot to become incapacitated. I probably saw this situation in the simulator at least 8 or 10 times in my career. Flight attendants are also trained to assist with this type of problem. Cheers, Rog
Restrain them in the seat, with a flight attendant accompanying them, if I remember correctly
Incorrect no many how many flight hours you have.
@@arsenalfeetYes and on top of that declare MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY, land the ac shortest possible way, stop on the runway and open the door for medical assistance! By declaring MAYDAY all assistance ( medical and firefighting) would wait on ground to approach the aircraft as soon as she stops! That would’ve been grate job done by the book and recurrent training I’ve received by every Airline I’ve worked for during my 40 y career as an Airline pilot. For years working as TRI in the SIM was giving pilot incapacitation by surprise in most critical moments during take off roll or just after V1! For this copilot, he did a job, not grate though as he was giving his best to accommodate ATC rather then to fight for his college life. Ideally he should’ve done this:
1. Declare MAYDAY
2. Climb 1500 + AP elevation ( visual circuit altitude)
3. Make 180 right turn as soon as possible
4. Call flight attendant to the cockpit to secure Captain
5. Abeam Rwy threshold 45” timing, 180 turn towards landing Rwy, land and stop.
6. Open the door and let medical staff to do their job
Would all this saved Captains life, God knows, but this copilot would know that he has done his part throughly…
I think he meant incapacitating on take off.
@@arsenalfeet
You don't need to restrain someone who just died, you fool.
The Captain died. I would certainly call that a priority emergency. Makes me feel bad for that Captain, didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to his family.. How sad. Condolences to his family, rest in peace dear Captain. 🌹🌹
Fire the Flight Physician for passing this pilot’s medical. 1st Class flight medical exams for Commercial pilots are sadly inadequate for pilots older than 50.
Rubbish statement. I was flying till 60. Commercial and military experience. It all depends on your physical fitness. I have seen pilots in the mid 30ties in a way worse shape than me.@kristopherdetar4346
Yes and anyone can die suddenly regardless of age !
I really appreciate the narrations that explain in laymans terms exactly what is happening. Excellent job in presenting these situations.
I was an Air Traffic Controller. Sir, you did a GREAT job in your explanation and narration.
Fair play to ye Sir.🎉
I am so impressed with the calmness and effectiveness of the pilot here. That shows amazing training by the company and good sense in the part of this pilot. I am sure he was grieving after all this was finished. RIP to the other pilot.
I'm more impressed with the safety and effectiveness of the shots /S
@@MF-rtard89
People were dying b4 the shots
As an experienced flight instructor, I disagree with you that you said it was OK for the first officer not to declare an emergency. The FAA has been harping on this subject for some time now. It wouldn't have taken a second for him to say Flight XXX declaring an emergency. Pilots are hesitant to do this and that has caused serious problems in other situations. They fear repercussions from the FAA, but as long as there was a real emergency there will be no repercussions. If you have an emergency DECLAIRE IT.
Pilot incapacitation very much justifies a PAN call, indeed.
Seems like calling an "unnecessary" emergency needs to have significantly less serious repercussions if folks are scared to declare one.
Hoover added he's got a lot going on, fly the plane, navigate, then communicate
Absolutely declare the emergency. Not only priority handling. It’s also your legal way out. You are the PIC. Not ATC, not the FAA, not the company or any University of Google Phd's on aviation.
ATC can declare the emergency for you. If they warrant it. I don’t know why any airline pilot would be reluctant to declare an emergency. In this case your are doing what is called an "air return", you are not proceeding to destination. Any diversion or return is subject to a company report most likely backed up with ASAP report (FAA) to cover yourself anyway.
He never once said it was okay, he said he doesn’t fault him for it while he was in that unexpected situation; which means he can sympathize with the Co-Pilot.
It’s easy to watch RUclips videos and think you would operate perfectly, like a machine, in every single situation. We’re not perfect all the time, even though we would like to believe so.
In 1990,my dad died of Sudden Cardiac Death while driving with my mom on the freeway in a Ford passenger van while pulling a 29' travel trailer. They were on vacation at the time. Even though there were paramedics within 2-3 minutes of the scene after diverting from another call to help my dad, there was still nothing they could do. I can't imagine that scenario several thousand feet in the air while flying a plane. Thank the Lord that co-pilot was calm and in control. I would imagine aside from the pilot being unconscious, that he was also the co-pilot's friend and at a bare minimum, a coworker and someone he knew. What a tough situation. I think he did quite admirable for the unexpected and frankly, scary situation he found himself in. My thoughts and prayers go out to the pilot's family and friends. It's not easy to lose a loved one instantly like that. You keep waiting for them to come home and they never do. I pray that God comforts them and helps them through this very difficult and trying time.
I don’t think the Lord had anything to do with the relatively good outcome of this incident. The First Officer’s training, skills, experience, and a simple but strong desire to not end up as a smoking hole in the ground were the main ingredients to a positive outcome. Those things, along with help from the Flight Attendant and ATC, all trained for this or similar emergency scenarios, are what made the difference.
You're a Very Smart Boy.@@AlaskaRog
I'm so sorry for the sudden loss of your father, even though it was a long time ago. Was your father driving? If so, how did your mother handle the vehicle not crashing?
But haven't you heard all the lunatics in the comments? It's because of the vaccines!!!
Another comment said it was a check flight and the pilot who passed was a new hire or prospective hire. So they probably didn’t know each other. Still an awful situation well handled.
The extra-crummy thing for a pilot in this situation is that while the pilots are both trained to fly the airplane, they're trained to do it *with assistance from the other pilot*. One flies, the other operates the radios, runs checklists, etc. This guy had to do everything all by himself.
Are you aware that the FAA want to approve single pilot operations; or no pilot at all??? You need two pilots on any jet that size....in never get on any jet with only one pilot; or no pilot at all! Left the busness years ago; Glade I did!!
It wasn't that hard to switch frequencies single pilot and land, this is a very forgiving and gentle airplane to fly.
True 👍
We train for it regularly. Although not common, if you keep calm and do things in order, you will be able to handle it fairly easily.
It might be easy to fly but you can’t steer it easily from the right seat!
UK airlines certainly do train for 'pilot incapacitation'. Involves using cabin crew member to secure or remove the incapacitated pilot, to sit in the jump seat and read check list items if required and to communicate with the cabin crew. Works well and is a regular simulator and ground training day item. I have done this training many times and, from a pilot's viewpoint, is great CRM training.
Yep. Saying pilots don’t train for it is completely false, it’s a common scenario in the sim
My understanding was that there isn't training for incapacitation during the takeoff and with the extra workload / comms that are happening in that phase of flight.
Avoiding panic is the greatest receipt to manage heavy dangerous situations , chapeau to the first officer
R.I.P. to the captain! The first officer did really well! Calm...collected.....and got them back safely!
He's the one I want in an emergency. A stead fast Hero and Professional. Condolences to the Captain's family so sad.
We train for it all the time at Air Canada. Pilot incapacitation, how to identify it and react to it. In the simulator the test involves different types of incapacitation; death, unconscious and the hardest one, responses to questions or inaction to events. Can be extremely difficult but if the other pilot suspects something is not correct, three questions in a row with incorrect responses is cause for the “pilot incapacitation” memory items followed by the checklist.
At Canadian Airlines the call for the pilot flying at 500 feet AGL on approach for landing was “Alive at Five”. It was a response to an incident in Japan where the pilot flying died on the approach and was not caught until after landing. Luckily this was an automated landing which the aircraft performed. The automated part of the approach was to be disconnected at 200 feet AGL and was not until the aircraft touched down and the monitoring pilot noticed the incapacitation.
Who flys a leg is usually alternated between the Captain and the First Officer. They should be trained to do each others job. The next division of labour is relegated to who is flying (pilot flying or PF) and the pilot not flying (pilot monitoring or PM)
On the 737 the tiller (steering wheel) is on the Captains side only! On the 67, 77, and 87 both pilots have a tiller.

What a shocking situation to have to deal with. He did a great job.

This was an unfortunate event that no pilot ever expects to happen. My hope is this video explains a little about what happens in these kind of situations.
I would be interested in your opinion or video analysis if these unexpected medical issues happen much more often since the more or less forced role-out of a certain medical treatment. Rumors say it seems to be problematic but nobody really wants to talk about it for whatever reason
Amazing job by the copilot. I assume a new flight crew would be needed as they surely can’t expect the original crew to carry on after such a traumatic event. Very sad for all involved.
What was the date of this incident please?
@@LacronhI actually went back to the beginning to search for the date. I’d like to know this too.

Great job by the F/O. You can only imagine the workload - flying, communication, instruments. He did great and sounded confident.
This video popped up in my U-Tube feed and it was really great. The guy explaining the dialog really made it easy to understand what was happening. Excellent job.
Much respect for pilots and their crews. I always return the smiles from the pilots and flight attendants when exiting the plane.
CP handled a stressful sad situation like a champ. I can't think of a better way for a pilot to go out, flying his last trip on Earth.
So good to hear a content creator without verbal overflow Good video. CONDOLENCES to the Captain's family and friends
Really scary and can't believe how calm he was. RIP to the captain.
He would be surely alive if not pushed and forced to take injections.
To some it may seem like this pilot was indifferent to the condition of the stricken pilot. I'd say just the opposite. I'd say the safety of all his passengers, including the captain, was paramount. He showed it by flying the airplane. Crashing while getting the captain medical assistance, wouldn't help anyone. Also, we weren't privy to what was said on the plane's intercom.
Kudos to the pilot. Passengers and safety first.
He should have declared an emergency. I would have asked to stay on the original frequency and would have informed the tower I was landing on runway 28R. In an emergency the PIC tells the controller what he wants. The F/O did do a great job. Great video.
As incredible of a job the pilot did, the folks in the towers did an amazing job too. Everyone was as calm as they could possibly be. Great job, great video, great explanation
WOW!!! Bravo to the right seated pilot that did everything right
As a Capt and instructor at a MAJOR airline I used to train this very scenario to the crew members I ws training! I was the only instructor teaching this at my airline.
In 16 years as Army helicopter assault pilot, we trained for this consistently. Since adding crewed fixed wing, I haven’t trained it once. Kudos to you.
remarkable job by first officer and all involved in getting the aircraft safely back on the ground, sadly the Captain did not survive, but prayers to his family and loved ones.
May his soul remain forever at cruising altitude.
Give me a break.
As a pilot I'd rather be at the bar watching the game, than forever at cruise altitude - just saying.
This is my favorite accident recap channel. Full of details, graphics and quick to the points. I learn a lot.
I genuinely value the straightforward explanations that precisely describe what's going on. Outstanding job in portraying these scenarios.
Praying for family friends God's peace, comfort, and the crew . Awesome co-pilot and crew.
Aviate, Navigate, Communicate. The pilot flying has the job of flying the aircraft first, everything else can wait, including talking to FA's and passengers.
100%
Matter of fact, we do (train captain / pilot incapacitation, especially on FFS - full flight simulator) regularly. Depending on the civil aviation agency, it is an initial check ride maneuver. In others, it is inserted on the LOFT.
May the colleague Rest in Peace...

@@andyfptAKA flu
Exactly.
Retired airline pilot here: Saying that airline pilots don't train for this is WRONG! No rookie pilot is released for line training without a "crew incapacitation" session in the flight simulator.
The interaction between the pilots from entering the cockpit until climbing to the initial cleared altitude is so intense that not many seconds will pass before the functioning crew member realizes that something is amiss. This situation (crew incapacitation) is practiced regularly in the simulator training so even a rookie first officer should be fairly competent to handle such situations.
In a case like this, the pilot remaining should call for call for FULL support from ATC - refusing a complicated approach clearance he would then have to execute on his own, just request vectors and full "babysitting" for the approach and landing. Minimizing the workload is what is called for, and ATC will normally be happy to provide it!
Good video! When I was conducting Initial Operating Experience (IOE) for an airline, my "graduation exercise" was to tell the trainee that I was "incapacitated" to determine that the pilot could manage the situation (minus declaring my "incapacitation").
I LOVE how informative you are and how you get the information across to the viewers. You obviously have a depth of knowledge and I appreciate this channel a great deal. I just discovered your channel not too long ago and it is very in depth, or at least as in depth as it needs to be for people who don't really have an understanding of the workings or ATC and the pilots. Too bad the pilot passed..
What were the time intervals? ie, from realizing incapacitation to landing, and everything in between?
Good compilation! And, good job, co-pilot. You saved 75+ people that day. Not all angels have wings!!
Your videos are really great, informative, concise and knowledgeable ..
Thanks so much 👍
Excellent handling by the co-pilot. I am sorry for the pilot's family. The pilot is fine now.
I commend u for never over criticizing pic's..Monday morning quarterbacks r the least helpful and show their poor character and not the folks at the yolks!😊
My husband and i have a common sense rule: to fly - 2 pilots and 2 engines. Life is unpredictable.things happen.
RIP. Some of these stories bring me to tears thinking of what their last couple minutes had to be like. The one with the Maggie girl that loses her right wheel on the landing gear, makes me tear up as soon as she comes on the radio with fear in her voice. Glad she made it out of that situation fine.
I think seeking emergency care for the pilot, if available, shouldtakepriority over not scaring the passengers. They can get over it.
That is what they did though. They were getting the pilot emergency care. And why spook the passengers if there is no need to?
My what a great channel you have. Love your commentary/explanations. Adds a lot!
Thanks! Glad you enjoy it!
RIP to the Captain, and well handled by everyone involved. It was a sad situation, but they did the best they could.
I flew 747s for 30 years and was an instructor and examiner in 747 simulator for 23 of those years. It is practiced and checked on a regular basis. The Captain is told over a private microphone channel at which point he is to have the incapacitation and this may result in either the First Officer rejecting the takeoff if it is recognised by a lack of 80 or 100 knot call before V1 or after takeoff if no response to a gear up request. The F/O will then declare an emergency for immediate return and medical assistance on landing. He or she will then fly the aircraft to a priority approach and is encouraged to auto land to reduce workload. The quicker the Captain receives medical help, the greater the chance of survival in the case of stroke or non fatal heart attack. Call a Mayday.
Very strange, the way so many pilots are so reluctant to declare an emergency. It's not as if there's a cost involved. ATC just didn't understand what he was saying, and declaring would have made that clear.
0:03 Callus as it sounds, that is what the first officer is there for, who is also a qualified commercial pilot, hopefully everyone kept their heads and this is not a tragic ending.
Wow kudos to everyone involved in this situation the pilot, the woman at the control tower… Goosebumps
RIP Captain. God Bless the captain’s family and friends. Kuddos to the 1st Officer on a job well done. I hope the company gave the FO a few days off after such a stressful day.
When did this incident happen? My mind goes straight to the last three and a half years and the forced compliance on the vaccine issue. There was talk about these instances taking place under the radar and of course they would be downplayed by the drug companies and of course the governments.
Why are so many pilots have health issues these past 2 years
Wow, that pilot was incredibly calm during that situation. Thanks for posting.
Even though I saw the title, I still started to cry when you said that he had passed away. Condolences to his family and colleagues.
Wrong……we regularly train for that in the sim and the real deal happened to me out of JFK. My FO collapsed while taxiing ……we’re on a jumbo. Just went by the book and ATC reacted in the same way. Sure, both of us were surprised at first.
I just applied the drill we are taught and trained for.
Thank god, it was just a stomach bug…..but a nasty one
I'm surprised that the CP didn’t declare an emergency, but it sounds like it was automatically treated as one when the tower heard, "Pilot is incapacitated" and "Pilot is out" and direct routed back to the runway.. RIP to the pilot.
Sad ending to a tough situation. The guy doing the narration of this video also didn't excellent job. He explained everything clearly so you understood what was going on from start
The situation was very well handed and the pilot sounded like he was the captain, extremely calm and sure about what he was doing. Rip Captain.
That's because he was a Captain. He was doing I.O.E. (initial operating experience) with a new Captain who was sitting in the left seat.
It was wrong for the co-pilot to not call it in as an emergency, the captain needed medical attention ASAP!
Very nicely explained video!! May I please correct what you say almost at the beginning? We are actually regularly trained for pilot incapacitation scenarios. There is a series of precise steps we have to perform if this happens because unfortunately it does happens. I don't know the Embraer 175 but the Boeing 737 or the A-320, like the majority of airliners, are certified to be flown by a crew of two persons, if one of the 2 crew members becomes unavailable the aircraft literally looses it's airworthiness in flight and it's a non normal situation, not a big deal honestly but we do train both Captains and First officers for it.
In my company, for example, it's even forbidden to roster to fly together two crew members if their age it's above 60 (I can't remember now if the age is 60 or 57).
Very commonly the incapacitation is due to food poisoning, anyway sometimes, like in your video, the cause is quite serious for the person involved...RIP for the poor guy!!
……two persons? 😊
i was on a flight from chicago to dubai.. a passenger died on board.. the plane landed at a small airport in canada -- pretty much the last stop before we were going to start crossing the atlantic..
i had no idea anything had happened.. except that we landed...
probably a good thing they don't announce anything is going on - they just do their jobs..
Good job 1st officer
You knew he was the right seat pilot when he told the tower that he needed to switch seats in order to taxi.
Imagine if both pilots had a heart attack.
I wonder that this didn´t happen yet....
Could happen with the mandatory poisoning.
This F/O did a great job. Cool, calm and effective. Tragic for the captain, but catastrophe avoided for the others.
Amazing job by the co- pilot....RIP Captain
Interesting video, thanks! It’s sad that the pilot died but the co-pilot was a star. 😟🇨🇦😟
Maybe co-pilot has not taken shots or dies later??? Who knows, poision on bodies now.
