![PASSENGER LANDS PLANE After Pilot Incapacitation [ATC audio]](/img/tr.png)
And here some places are trying to get rid of the 2nd body in the cockpit due to staffing shortages. Crazy stuff.
no matter the job that's not ever a good idea
@Tom Gulbranson MentourPilot was talking about it.
@Tom Gulbranson of course. Not sure whats got your jimmies all in a bundle dude...
@Tom Gulbranson You can do some quick searching. It was just something that was being discussed. Good lord man, grow up.
If Mentour Pilot is discussing it, it’s legit. Anyone who has ever been to his channel knows who he is, and is an authority on flying and regulations. Still, looking things up for oneself doesn’t hurt.
What a pilot he deserves recognition for his handling of the terrible situation. Condolences to his family fly free captain ford thank you.
I don’t think he handled it well, he should have asked the crew to perform life revival procedure on the dying pilot! and not letting him die comfortably without any efforts!!
@@armanarmani6047 You know. I love comments like yours. It reminds me that there are some people that don’t take in the situation and don’t think of how the situation is handled at the moment. You can sit back and say that because you aren’t in that position. Bro stay silent fr.
@@armanarmani6047 Wow. Learn to read the room mate.
I do not agree, the decision tree is: aviate, navigate, communicate. So the first officer flew the plane, followed ATC instructions and told them his problem . He probably told cabin crew and unlocked the door. But flying from the right hand seat was paramount. Once on the ground and clear of the active runway he could attend to the pilot
@@armanarmani6047 Quiet yourself, fool.
If there's a silver lining in this death it is he died doing what he loved and no one else went with him. Blue skies and fair winds Captian.
Actually was my thought too…
Can't ask for more than that. We're just here for a temporary ride .
What a weird thing to say. Lol
Really? You’d prefer to die at work rather than at home surrounded by your family?
How do you know that? I can think of many better places to die than work.
Props to the pilot for keeping everything smooth it must be a horrendous and scary situation.
A good thing is almost never happens it's still very safe flying
@@conservativedragon as long as mRNA spike proteins do not hit BOTH pilots at same time
@@zeeman9145 what should that have to do with this?
@@saladien9987 question: what "medicine" were all of the U.S. pilots FORCED to take in order to keep their jobs? What 'side effects" are when you take that "medicine"? Do you know what is graphene oxide that is in all of those injections? Do you know what happens to blood when you have huge amount of graphene oxide in your blood and you are going through the changes of atmospheric pressure? Do you know that jabs have spike proteins? How can people like you not know what is really going on?
@@zeeman9145 maybe they use that in Astra Zenica or some other one but independent research found no traces of it in BioNTechs vaccines. So any other claims?

He died doing what he loved :(
i sniff farts.
@@officialJoCa 🔥
And I’m sure he wouldn’t have wanted it any other way ❤
You can just hear the sadness in the co-pilot's voice whilst maintaining calm in the situation 💔
Co-pilot handled it so professionally under these circumstances, RIP Captain Ford.
This does serve as an epiphany.... No one knows when their time is up. Look at those you love and tell them every day how much you love them, you never know when it might be the last time. Live, Love and regret nothing.
The FO was a training captain training or checking the pilot in the left seat. It’s a blessing he was a training pilot. If it was a brand new pilot this would have been a lot more difficult situation.
Nice flying indeed. But the time wasted screwing around on ground rather than getting the paramedics in there ASAP might have made the difference between life and death for that captain.
Why don’t you , I Don’t need help with human interaction toward my family . Keep that shit to yourself . And by the way some people tell you they love you but in reality they couldn’t give a shit. Good luck in fantasy land
@@francophonie129 Would've taken just as long to get paramedics out there & onto the plane.
No, terrible work! They should have gotten the paramedics immediately, instead of slowly going for the gate. And supposedly the dying pilot was not given any first aid?
You can tell from Captain Hendrickson that he has 1,000 things going through his mind as he's talk with ATC. How he was able to keep it together during that is amazing to me.
So sorry for this loss of this bright, talented and intelligent person.
Wishing peace and comfort to all who knew him and are affected by his passing.
Take care.

@@joakimberg7897 he’s js stating what needs to be said. How do you feel “sorrow” for a person u never knew personally, they could’ve js said rip and followed up with the rest of the things that they they said. It’s literally like when ppl will be grieving for a celebrity who died that they never had any type of relationship with or you’ll see comments from ppl about a celebrity who passed and they’ll say they miss them so much. like huhh make it make sense
Hats off to the first officer and ATC here. Like seriously, amazing work. They both stayed completely calm and handled the situation as if nothing had happened. This air traffic controller and first officer deserve recognition for this!
This is why there should always be more than 1 pilot in case of emergency.
Such calmness and professionalism in the midst of a potential tragedy. Hat's off to him.
not to mention the trauma of having to watch someone die in front of you like that, he handled it so well
He rejected ATC calls for paramedic assistance numerous times.
It sounded as if there were medical personnel onboard. It must have been horrific to watch your friend died and have to maintain your composure.
@@j700jam4 How would the paramedics get onboard an aircraft with an entrance 20 feet in the air if it wasn't at the gate?
He made the right call, the flight attendants were rendering aid as they are trained to do. It was quicker to take the aircraft to a gate than to bus out airstairs which are seldom ready to go at major airports.
Unbelievable First Officer. What a brave man he is. Pls God give him comfort when he can't forget this horror.
he's not a first officer, he's another Captain who was training Captain Ford - that's why he was so good
Can you imagine if there had only been the one pilot?
There's a current movement to have just one pilot.
That's where the HAL 9000 computer comes in.
@@bsmith1164 ...That's when the flight attendant makes the announcement, "By the way, is there anybody on board who knows how to fly a plane?"
And this flight had 2 extra pilots 😒 🙄
How can one pilot maintain checks and balances?
There's redundancy in every critical system in an aircraft. Pilots are of course critical for safe operation of the aircraft so redundancy MUST be in place. I hope this "movement" never ends up becoming an actual thing. This situation highlights the exact reason why having one pilot is a bad idea. A solo pilot suffering a medical episode will result in the death of all on board.
I’m amazed that everybody managed to sound so calm. They’re probably trained for those situations but I would’ve been freaking out over comms. RIP Captain Ford, so sorry for the loss.
Former military pilot.
That natural reaction to freak out is precisely the reason for so much training. After preparing so extensively for emergencies, when it does happen you are better able to switch into emergency mode and go through the steps you’ve trained for without having to stop and collect your emotions first. This video definitely shows how that training helps everyone be prepared and calm, and thus avoid making critical mistakes that could make the situation so much worse.
Used to work as a community carer, we would go to vulnerable people's houses and get their meds, dinner etc. We didn't have much training, but the most training we had was on what to do if we entered the property and the service user was dying.
Having a clear plan of action and having it in your head ready to action saves precious minutes.
I remember working at telephone switch board in the army. I got a radiocall from the training field requesting to be forwarded to the medic center. They didn't answer. Then because the commander on the radio was so calm, I kept trying for a pretty long time. Days later, I learn that the person with whom I was talking on the radio, was injured by an accidental detonation of explosives. If I knew about the severity, I would imediatly have involved other parties to assist, as I had firedepartment in the next room, and MP and gate guards in the next building, they would have had vehicles, and been able to drive over to the medic center.
Thinking back on how I think I should have responded differently:
I think the responce from ATC should have been to: get the plane on the ground, and have paramedic stand by the runway, not to waste time taxi to the gate.
Still I Understand it can be difficult to grasp the severity of a situation when the person calling in is that calm.
When an aircraft has to return because the pilot is out, it might be that miute and seconds count.
Just like a request for medic center from the army training field, where the handle explosives and weapons, should be considered emergency, unless stricly informed that it is not urgent.
As a woman you shouldn't be anywhere near the controls of a plane anyway.
How awful. I don't think he realized even that he had passed, but just passed out. Handled so well. My heart goes out to all.
Thats the way most of us want to go
@@OriginalSentiment you can't just pull them from the seat when flying. Small space and it would risk hitting switches and buttons + they need to land the aircraft safely
@@OriginalSentiment There are not Air Marshall's on every flight. There are plenty of reasons why removing the pilot to start medical right away might not have been doable or even the right choice. You only have some of the information, why would you say the situation was handled badly and insinuate you could have done better?
If he died I think he would know. The human body does disturbing things as the brain dies.
@@hgbugalou It depends on the manner of death, but most of the time the body does absolutely nothing as the brain dies.
The professionalism shown by the pilot and the Air Traffic Control team is exemplary here.
Absolutely. I guess he might have had an emotional breakdown _after_ the whole thing was over.
I'd argue that he should have declared and had the medics waiting on the taxiway. Delays for things like taxi can make the difference between life and death in some cases.
That would have got the pilot qualified attention sooner . The problem with that is that there is no easy way to get a stetcher out of the aircraft other than the gate so it would have delayed getting him to the hospital. I have seen similar situations but the outcome was better.
@@miker9082 Obviously every facility is different, but every class-B airport I've operated out of had a fire department that could do it quickly. EMTs carrying someone down from their upstairs bedroom where a rolling stretcher won't fit is no more challenging than carrying them down airstairs--most any EMS agency will have a variety of chairs/slings/etc built just for that purpose. It's something that they drill regularly.
@@chetmcmasterson obviously I think the guy flying the plane is in a better position to make the call than anyone else.
@@miker9082 Certainly, but don't you think it's a useful exercise to debrief emergencies for lessons learned? Makes us all better flyers imo.
It would have taken longer trying to get him off the plane on the taxiway
RIP Captain Ford. My bro in law flew for AA for 40 years and is in heaven. I have said a prayer and asked him to find you and comfort you.
Damn. How sad. My sympathy to the pilot and his family. And kudos to the Co pilot for keeping his cool. I can’t even imagine.
Co pilots still have hundreds of hours of flight in experience, so i'm not that surprised that he kept his calm
@BOB K what a horrible take
@@evryatis9231 his friend literally died right next to him?
@@rmx39 and hundreds people more would die if he had panicked
@@evryatis9231 saying you’re ‘not surprised’ that someone stayed 100% calm after his friend dies right in front of them is dismissing the gravity of the situation and just being a dickhead
You gotta respect the supporting pilot who did everything else in managing the situation. Good thinking.
In other words, the pilot in training died, the check pilot, despite having a code brown moment, took charge and when a deadheading pilot arrived, had the death confirmed.
At that point, no need to hurry for medical, as no medical can fix dead.
I've done a Heimlich on my teen at the time daughter, while considering a surgical airway, which is contraindicated at that age, when her airway finally cleared. I've performed CPR on my wife of over 41 years, to no avail, she was down too long and what caused it wasn't going away.
You do what you have to do, what you've trained to do. Doesn't erase an emotional burden, but it does delay it while you take care of what has to be taken care of and that's one of the hardest lessons to teach others.
I've had commanders question if I was a human or robot, I'm human, but I do what's needed at that moment, later, I'll mourn or otherwise emotionally respond.
Later, in war, well, that came in handy.
Now, excuse me while I clear your net. It's coming up on a year after my wife died, so I'm going to get a bit drunk.
Then, tomorrow morning, figure out a grocery delivery billing issue that's tangled to hell and gone...
To err is human, to really foul up requires a computer.
My condolences for your irretrievable loss.
Rest in Peace captain Ford you will truly be missed, now sir you have Earned your Heavenly Wings!. My deepest condolences to his wife, family, friends and especially to the co pilot and crew who flew with the captain on that day. May you all have Peace in this trying time.❤️🙏🕊️
@@user-vu5zx2us1g
I am very aware of that , it's a metaphor being a daughter of a pilot. " Wow Who Stomped On Your Tombstone"?! 😂😂
@Charles McKinley ouch... totally not what the message was about.
@@user-vu5zx2us1g
Sorry I don't play into negativity , you have a right to your opinion.
May Heavenly Father bless you and give you Peace 🕊️. Happy Holidays 🙏
@Charles McKinley words are words. They are structured to provide a message. Oftentimes the words used can be torn apart and twisted to attack a figurative phrase the way you did, if one chooses.
The message here has nothing to do with heaven and everything to do with conveying sentiments, condolences and mourning.
But we can twist them all day long as you do while ignoring that meaning.
It doesn't make you look intelligent, it makes you look like a troll.
Ass move... ass move.
@Charles McKinley read my words. I will say it again:
Oftentimes the phrasing of a sentence can be taken only in part while ignoring the way it which it was presented and said and what those parts mean towards the whole of their message.
You are doing that.
Thus you are the one twisting.
This is called context. Something which twice now over different things I have come under suspicion that you have no understanding of. It applies in language to. I suggest you learn it.
As to your negativity. Venissia Johnson is correct. Your comment had cherry picked a piece of her comment and attacked it out of context of the original meaning and way she used it.
You took a message of mourning and understanding and trampled all over it. This is very negative.
A mistake is understandable, in fact I am not entirely sure your first comment can accurately be described as being negative because of it. But you didnt stop there when corrected and having it clarified. Instead you doubled down. Furthering your own negative input on the matter. Her comment wasnt even conveying any "truth" about heaven, but rather making a pleasing feel good wordplay with a bit of lighthearted humor and respect. Thus your follow up comments are no more than nonsensical nitpicking and serves no purpose other than to pointlessly attack. Rather you realize what you are doing before or not, now you cannot remain wholly ignorant of it after its been pointed out.
I, by extension, am actually feeding into your negativity by explaining this at all. But despite appearances, I truly do believe you have no idea of what you are saying and you are not a simple troll.
So sad. This is why airlines pushing for single pilot operation is foolish. If there's a pilot shortage, park the plane. If it's about cutting expenses, it's out of the question.
As an EMT this is pretty confusing to me. I am very impressed by the professionalism of the pilot under these circumstances. Not many people come into the situation that someone dies right next to them, especially not coworkers and by far not in a situation where you HAVE TO manage so many things at the same time. And the person that died minutes ago is still sitting next to you for about 25 minutes I guess. This must be a horrific situation. I guess that the brain just switches from normal mode into an "just function and work on what happened later"-mode.
But I wonder why Cpt. Ford was still in his seat the whole time. I would have expected that he was removed from the seat and given first medical treatment or resuscitation-efforts by medical trained crew members or if available medical trained passengers. I guess there are reasons for that. Could someone clarify?
Looking at the cockpit of some of these planes I'm guessing you can't just pull a body out of seat without having potential for buttons to be pushed or other issues. I could be wrong but on takeoff and with everything going on it would be a delicate situation and the last thing you would want is to complicate or oversaturate the remaining pilot until everyone else is at a point of safety which in this case was on the ground.
@@spyder000069 thanks for replying. Most likely you're right, cause they actually changed places on ground... Although this reason would be pretty unsatisfying.
@@rox1601 I'd like to point out that being in the pilots cabin is very cramped and tight, depending on the jet as well. when I was younger, I did a special needs training "class" on how to handle being in air. I was invited to sit in the pilots seat and it was VERY uncomfortable, even at such a smaller size. It would be near impossible to move a body out of the seat, fly and handle communications all at the same time. the cabins are pressurized and sealed during take off, flight and taxing.
@@zandercoronado7811 OK. Thanks for explaining. Last time I have been inside a cockpit was at the age of 7 or 8. So I have no reliable memories about the sizes...,;)
I think its possible he didn't know he was dead.
They clearly ask for a Paramedic which you dont need if you are deceased
As a former paramedic, I have had runs to our airport many times. If the pilot suffered a full cardiac arrest, 9.5 of those patients die. Even when everything goes in favor of the patient ie…CPR started, secure airway (intubation) and necessary drugs pushed. I’m sure a passenger who knew CPR, a nurse or even a physician on board was working the pilot. Those patients regurgitate and they would have no way to suction. So very many things need to happen. But if we get a “save” from a full arrest patient, it’s a great day for us. If God wants you home, there’s no earthly power to delay that. Maybe a Doctor/Nurse on board could see he was gone. Air traffic doesn’t allow for that type of message to go out over the airways.
It is interesting they didn’t seem in too much of a rush to get paramedics to meet them on the runway. Maybe they already knew it was too late.
@@matthewjohnson3379 Renember: they have to get an unconscious body taht is blocking the second seat of the ariplane out, imediatly start CPR, with the only person communicating with ATC being the pilot, and having no time to think.
He had cardiac arrest . Obviously the defibrillator was not available on the plane . Great job vaccining everyone…
He died of immediate cardiac arrest . They knew he is dead .
How can half a patient die, as in 9.5? Did you mean 9.5 out of 600? What about 9.5 out of 12?
Reminder to everyone that it can go dark just like that. Tell your loved ones that you love them, tonight.
RIP to Captain Ford, I wish peace upon anyone affected by his tragic passing and I am glad the check airman got the aircraft turned around and back on the ground safely.
sponsored by pfizer is not a tragic passing. it is a crime.
At around 6:00 it sounded like he was gonna ask how the paramedics would get him from their current location before just deciding to wait to taxi.
i have read of in flight pilot deaths, up until 2020 , six, after 2020, over one hundred .
Hmmm. That's converning....
Pure coincidence
Safe and effective
@@milchi5122 😂
I hope the Co-pilot doesn’t let this haunt him. He did a great job.
Co pilot is next in line for clotting and stroke.
Moving the captain from the left seat must have been double tough. Moving a limp body isn't easy, let alone with all the stuff in a cockpit to snag on.
Nice to see you again ATV !, and my Deepest condolences to the pilot and his family
Sad video, and I feel for his fellow airman. Something tells me this didn't have to happen this way. He should have had stairs and paramedics meet him at a ramp shortly off the runway, and he should have declared an immediate emergency so that he could get a priority return. I hope there is a learning lesson in this, because every minute counts in a situation like this.
Yeah, I noticed that they were able to get back to the runway in about 5-minutes, but didn't actually get to the gate until over 20-minutes had elapsed. RIP
Totally agreed. Nice job handling the aircraft with an incapacitated captain but still all decisions were made regarding aircraft safety and none to improve Cpt. Ford's chances of survival. Either his death was clearly irreversible to the pilot's eyes or else I don't understand why he didn't ask for immediate help on the runway.
Easy to be an armchair pilot in such a situation, but the important part is he got the plane on the ground safely.
@@purpleduracell To my knowledge that is pretty much his job. If he usually just serves coffee I stand corrected.
It was medical emergency and nothing was rushed after plane landed which was very weird. Also you would think that air traffic control would have taken over after landing telling where to meet paramedics instead of "would you like to meet us at gate 1 or 70 or maybe his unconsciousness is severe enough that we would need to rush over there?". I mean that decision should have been made by paramedics and airport personel beforehand so that help was near when plane has landed.
You all seem to forget that cabin crew are onboard and are trained in emergency first aid. They might have been performing CPR while they were stopped. Taking an incapacitated pilot from his seat is no easy task, unconscious people are heavy as hell, and you have to be careful not to drag his feet all over the controls. It takes time. And if the guy had a sudden cardiac arrest, he was probably beyond saving by the time they landed.
Also shows the professionalism of air traffic control. Predictable, almost robotic, and much needed. Pivoting from routine to the unexpected as part of their normal operations.
This happened during a landing on the plane I was on about 18 months ago. Plane came into land, very rocky, something not right, slammed on the brakes, blue lights everywhere. When we were finally allowed off after a long wait, the airline management team and police lined up on the air bridge, First Officer was very badly shaken up laid out being given oxygen. I looked in the cabin as we got off and Captain slumped in seat with Dr attending.
I agree - this shows the importance of having two people in the cockpit. Safety should come first. Cost-cutting is fine, but carried too far and people can die. I’m also surprised only the left seat has the ground control wheel.
Pilot did great maintaining his composure and getting everyone down safe. RIP Captain.
It's amazing to me how calm he can be.
Damn, his last words were reading back takeoff clearance. Just goes to show that we can go at anytime
Ford was the pilot flying. Therefore Hendrickson was doing ATC from the start. So he went from monitoring the radio and instruments to doing all of his responsibilities as well as the captains. Major major props to this FO!!
Thanks to the co pilot and atc who did a great job staying cool under pressure.
Sincere condolences to Captain Ford's family and friends. Enjoy the view from heaven Sir. Fitting place for a pilot.
These videos stand out from the rest as being unique and well polished. The best
What an amazing display of professionalism in a terrible situation.
Peace and comfort the family and friends of Capt. FORD.
peace and comfort to pfizer.
So sorry to hear about the Captain and all prayers to his family. I like to think he passed doing what he loved most!
Such an amazing and professional job by the tower and co-pilot.
Really liked the way you did the graphics...Made it much more clearer than other aircraft videos out there
What a horrible situation for the check pilot! And all this in one of the busiest airspaces
Great to have you back ATV!
First time I heard the ATC for the event I was disturbed by tower telling the first officer to contact departure to get sequenced back in. Then I noticed it was in the middle of evening rush out of Chicago O'Hare. There is too much traffic to "part the seas" and enable an immediate turn to land. Not only that, the first officer needed time to process everything and handle the aircraft. Even in this situation checklists had to be done or he could have endangered everyone.
In the end, well handled by all, RIP Capt.
Fortunately he was a "Check Pilot" and most likely had superior skills on that particular aircraft than that of the PIC.
Damn. One of my fears is dying at such an awkward moment. We all die someday, but hopefully not while other people's lives are in our hands. May we all pass peacefully in our sleep when we are ready.
lol ... if you die, you die ... what does it matter? 1 live, 200 lives ... the latter is just better for the planet.
@@TheScytheMoron I guess if you're a psychopath it doesn't matter.
@@theobserver9131 Nah i just follow the teachings of thanos. Sadly ... he is just fiction. (which .. is kinda like in any religion ...)
@@theobserver9131 We suffer from great overpopulation - while his comment lacks empathy, he technically is right about it being better for the planet. Regardless of that, that is the reason there is 1) a co-pilot and 2) an off-duty pilot as a passenger, so that technically even both the pilot and co-pilot could pass out while the third one could still safely land the plane. That's as much safety as you get, because it's very unlikely that a healthy pilot just passes out, but even more unlikely that two pilots are passing out and statistically almost never going to happen that both pilots and the off-duty one passes out too.
@@ezikhoyo WRONG
There is no over population, all the people on earth could live in texas at the current pop density of japan
Damn that sucks... 5:29 you can tell by his response that he knew well that it was too late for paramedics to do anything, so he chose to taxi to the gate instead of freezing the airport with an emergency.
It always amazes me when I see videos like these, how calm everyone is throughout
That was very moving. Well done pilot in the right seat.
Sorry for the loss of your pilot Captain Ford, prayers are with his family. At this difficult time.
Condolences to the AA Family and the Captain's Family.
Good to see you Upload again ATV and My sincere condolances to the Pilot and his family.
I got my first flying lesson just last year.
The whole way to the airport I had these horrifying versions that “what if my pilot goes unconscious?” I wouldn’t even know how to tell ATC let alone land the thing.
Fantastic video,just Fantastic, the information was terrific and the animation was also terrific, will probably watch this several more times !!!!
I mean. What a way to go though. Dude took off and kept going straight to heaven, doing what he loved.
Yet another sudden death of a healthy young individual. It's a pandemic of global proportions.
Some might say.... biblical proportions.
@@hookooekoo2 this has nothing to do with any relgion what so ever
In the beginning of the clip I find it remarkable that ATC knew which plane was talking, that didn't sound anything like 3556, most of the transmissions it sounds like 35 36...
Deciphering muttered callsigns is bread and butter for ATC, particularly at busy airports like ORD.
I believe the audio that you're hearing in these videos is from some other receivers (likely offsite from the airport) and not what the ATC is using to communicate with aircraft.
It’s been shown that sitting for hours on end is absolutely terrible for health, and it’s not even corrected by exercise.
Thank you for timestamps!
I think this is the best channel for ATC. Thank you so much for your content.
Take that stupid Ukraine flag off your profile photo. It's pointless and dumb.
Rest in peace Captain
Great initiative to always have an off duty pilot travelling. Rest easy sir ❤
Prayers and condolences to Captain Ford's family. Unbelievable!
Was this co-pilot reluctant to say that the pilot is dead? He sure was in no hurry to get the paramedics on board.
I work @O'Hare I Heard about this, they had his plane Parked in the cargo area RIP 🙏 to the pilot
Very calm and professional
That pilot kept his cool on the radio now matter what. Wow. Good job sir.
It would be very useful if the NTSB could report the vaccination status of all air crew who die during a flight.
I don't think people realize how serious this is. A pilot having any kind of medical issue puts the airplane in grave danger, because there's a possibility that they might be in manual control of the aircraft and accidentally do something that the other pilot doesn't have time to correct for.
They don’t realize it by any means. We live in the age of insanity. If a tv channel tells you that any airplane can fly with one pilot and that the first officer’s job is to merely be there as a backup ( as I so often hear)….. what can you do? You simply believe them because you can’t contradict them if you are not a pilot.
The right seater was a line check captain. No worries. Very experienced.
@@rv6ejguy It’s not always like that though.
Not at all most of the time the planes are on autopilot anyway
@@venessapurefoy8336 And what does that mean? The safety issue of a sterile cockpit especially at lower altitudes during take offs, approaches and landings is taken very seriously. And that means full participation and awareness of both flight crew members, with each playing his part accordingly .
Common people completely ignore this fundamental rule. As they ignore the fact that if a pilot becomes incapacitated, the operation is cancelled and the aircraft will land at the closest suitable airport, with all associating delays for the passengers.
Condoleances to the family of the deceased captain and hats off the captain who took charge.
The ATC grey screen with the planes moving all over the place gives me the jitters...
What a guy!!That plane was loaded with fuel and people....He is a hero for how expertly and calmly he dealt with the crisis.....
Guessing he died of "suddenly". Lots of that going around starting around that time.
Guessing you're gullible.
@@smark1180 guessing you haven't watched the documentary... "Died suddenly"

@@jdmforever5583 LOL! Retired nurse practitioner not-an-MD Dr. John Campbell?!
He's been fact-checked and debunked so many times that it's unbelievable you would present him to support your delusion.
I cannot fathom how awful this was. Kudos to the other pilot for staying as calm as can be
RIP Captain Ford.
And kudos to Captain Hendrickson, he certainly showed, why hes a linecheck captain!
That copilot wasted as much time as possible for the captain to reach brain death. Why didn’t he just get paramedics on as soon as they landed.
@@ousarlxsfjsbvbg8588 full plane, would probably cause issues for the passengers and paramedics.
@@jwalster9412 nonsense, I’ve been in a medical emergency landing where they got the paramedics on minutes after the plane touched down
@@jwalster9412 the plane is already late and would probably be rescheduled anyway. He died because they did not circulate the blood under 11 minutes, making his brain die. They could have at least used CPR until paramedics arrive.
@@ousarlxsfjsbvbg8588 I am a trained medical responder. I think they could have saved his life if his incapacitation is cardiac arrest. No one bothered to do basic life support. Makes me wonder if they are trained in BLS. I thought they were mandatory to airline service.
wonderfull calm, well done. this is why we ALWAYS need to have second in cockpit 😊
i can't imagine the morbidity of flying a plane with your fellow pilot dead right next to you. i hope ford's family is at peace, and i hope the other pilot heals sooner than later. i don't even think any language on earth can describe how traumatizing that is
aviate,navigate,communicate....... check pilot did did his duty.....
Lots of pilots have military experience and have been extensively trained to continue to function mentally and physically when this occurs. So much respect for military men and women.
Did the pilot "suddenly died"?
"Died suddenly"
@@jdmforever5583 S.A.D.S.
Condolences to the captain and kudos to all other involved parties for their professional handling of this.
I like to listen to audio like this while I play out the scenario on Turbo Prop Flight Simulator.
These graphics and animations are 💯
Amazing! This is exactly why we must maintain a minimum of two pilot status in the cockpit.
Welcome back !!!
Nobody is in a rush to get the man some help, no wonder he died
Rest in peace 🙏🏻
Very sad. RIP captain. at least he went out in such a fashion.
yeah, the fashion is experimental poisons sponsored by pfizer.
What fashion? Bro just died lmao
Rest.in.peace and condolences too the family and friends 🙏 ❤ x
Imagine having to do your job, remain calm while you communicate with the tower, crew, & passengers, and physically move the body of your deceased co-worker from his work station so that you can take over. 😮
That's a true professional. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thoughts go out the family of the Captain.
Wow this was tough to listen to. It's terrible about the captain but it does make me smile he was in his plane seeing his favorite view all around him.
Very calm. Not freaking out. Took control as they should
Thats my birthday. So sorry for your loss. Very sad.
Excellent calm communication between the tower and the co-pilot. Everybody's professional in this scenario
That's like, a basic requirement for being a commercial pilot. You can't afford to be easily worked up and be a pilot.
Yeah don’t worry about the dead pilot it’s all about been professional
To be fair, this was probably a sanario they trained for many times, so he probably knew what to do.
@@jwalster9412 Absolutely.
Wow... wow... Rock solid emotional stability...
Given how absolutely crazy busy O'Hare airport is, I am suprised this isn't a more common situation.
That is why we do all our training. So sorry for the staff.
so sad. God rest his soul!
god give more clients to pfizer.
Sad to hear the Capt Passed,Prayers for his Family,Great job Team
