VALOR KNOWS NO GENDER!; Great job shipmate! Women warriors & sisters in service. "HONOR, COURAGE, COMMITMENT " BRAVO ZULU. Proud USN VETERAN. GOD BLESS YOU ALL, THE FAMILY OF JENNIFER AND AMERICA 🇺🇸 🙏 ❤
I completely agree, She doesn't use her head sometimes asking a question like that. Thankfully this fully trained and very competent flight crew knew not only how to handle that poor woman during the incident but they handled that stupid question with eloquence
Don’t you know she’d be showing photos of the corpse hanging out the window. Also, guaranteed that she was cringing as they crew discussed their Bible studying. Haven’t watched CBS for years for this reason.
@@j.y.3604 Umm your ability to relate is irrelevant when compared to the mental well-being of those who actually lived it. It's like asking someone who witnesses a person getting hit by a train to describe how many parts the body was left in. Your curiosity is the least important factor. You do not matter in any way whatsoever in this situation, nobody asking those questions does. What matters is that those who went through it are not made to relive horrific details when it's not necessary. (And no, satisfying your morbid curiosity does not count as "necessary.")
@@michellebaker6302 That is just your opinion Michelle. You cannot stop human curiosity. It's also stating facts and facts are important in every situation.
Kind of inappropriate to be pressuring them to describe "how someone fits through a airplane window". Ummm obviously violently and horrifically! You think she just slid right through? Obviously the suction is so powerful it crushed her and probably broke and dislocated a lot of her bones. So why would you want them to describe that on live TV? Let's violate the lady's dignity a little more by explaining just how horrible of a death she experienced for the views.
That was gruesome. The question was inappropriate and in the tradition of the worst kind of yellow journalism. Later the same interviewer presses them to be graphic about the chaos in the cabin. I need to take a shower.
Exactly. The last thing her family, especially her young children need to know and hear about (by way of the media) is how painful and horrible her ordeal and death was.
The crew is what made this interview worth watching. I dont know who the anchor is who was asking inappropriate questions but luckily for the network the crew was professional, humble and compassionate. Impressive! God bless them all. Keep praying!
Thats Gayle. She clearly can't self think or follow instructions. I have no doubt a SW Lawyer told them point blank "please do not ask about the deceased passanger or the situation regarding that. It is under investigation and could hinder insurance claims for the victims family." And she thought to herself "Ok. But Im gonna do it anyway cause we need clicks and Oprah."
The captain is an exceptional leader. She gives an aura of professionalism and strong leadership. A true role model not only for women, but to men as well.
Tammie Jo Shultz, you are absolutely breathtaking! You are a precious angel, from the inside out- through and through. You’re resilient, victorious, inspirational, compassionate, and diligent. May God continue to bless you and your family abundantly!
"But no, tell us how truly horrific that lady's death was! I mean really go in and give us all the horrific detail" The crew, still handling the situation expertly and professionally, politely refusing to give CBS what they want. Classy group of human beings! RIP Jennifer
I couldn't have stayed professional. I'd have told her exactly what I thought of her and that question right then and there, in front of God and everybody.
@@rosas5365 I just wrote almost the same thing! Like paint me a graphic picture. No more God stuff and really paint a story of how horrific it was. Nuts
The victim had the belt fastened as new updates disclosed. This is why she was not lost. Passengers are very close to the window - I hope this explains everything and no need to discuss further details. RIP Jennifer.
that flight attendant is amazing. you can tell all these individuals would rather lose their own lives than lose a passenger. really quite astonishing, you don't see that type of dedication too often
If you look at this group, you can clearly see who is the leader by the unconscious power she radiates. Shared values is what drove this crew and I have to say, although I don't share their Faith, I respect the heck out of them all. Knowing you have this captain in charge, would be the ultimate cure for fear of flying!
Percy Prune, I agree with your statement and am glad that you respect the Captain and Crew! I DO share their faith as a Bible believing Christian and can tell you that REAL Christians have that Peace and confidence in emergencies. I have been through several life/death situations where that "peace that surpasses all understanding" was with me through crisis and it was noticed by those around me. There are a LOT of FAKE Christians though and they do NOT have Peace and Love. Christ says that you "will know the Christians by their love." In viewing this interview I felt both of those characteristics in this Crew.
In addition, extensive crew training and crew resource management play a huge part in dealing with flight emergencies. Everyone knows what to do, and everyone takes a team approach to dealing with events. There are no cowboys in the air -- not in properly run airlines.
This is leadership and teamwork at their damned finest. The Captain's laser-like focus in eliminating symptoms first then quickly analyzing the problem DESPITE the grave amount of pressure is outstanding. Her technical and leadership skills shine through. Notice how she was so calm during the ATC recordings and how she was quick to give credit to her FO in this interview. No amount of technical skills would be enough if leadership is lacking during those crucial moments. And of course, she wouldn't be able to this without the support of her steady FO. The cabin crew as well is very commendable and their trust towards the pilot is nothing short of amazing. Truly a display of outstanding teamwork. RIP to the lost soul. The Captain is true in saying that the saving of majority of the passengers should not, in any way, eclipse the loss of one.
"Well....when the plane turned left 40 degrees within 2 seconds and started heading towards the ground, I thought to myself.....something might not be right". 😂
There were multiple hero's on board that day. From the two ladies seated next to the victim initial actions to attempt to save her to the two firefighters on board who got the victim back into the plane, one who received injuries when he had to stick his arm outside the aircraft to get her body back in, to the flight crew performing cpr among other actions.
What an exceptional and amazing crew. Not only their professional skills, but their shared faith in God, as well as their genuine commitment to serving their passengers. The one death was a tragic loss to the victim's family, yet this crew managed to keep calm, do their jobs, and save the lives of everyone else on board. What an inspiration!
Tammie Jo’s statement about Rebecca was beautiful. It seems like she genuinely made an effort to learn about her and to celebrate her life. What a lovely woman 💜
As a menber of the SOUTHWEST AIRLINES FAMILY ~~ so extremely proud of this crew ! SWA teaining is INCREDIBLE ! We ALWAYS strive to work as a T.E.A.M. & fortunate to have such OUTSTANDING teaining ! Luv my 💛💙❤❗
They all have such precious and sacred souls. I enjoy their faith-based views. Such a wonderful group of individuals. May God continue to bless them, their hearts, and their families abundantly.
I’m watching this on April 17, 2019 one year after this happened. I wanted to say that I’m glad the crew was willing to help people. I’m sorry to hear about what happened to the engine on that flight but I’m glad most people made. Sorry to hear about what happened to the one passenger that was killed.
Absolutely amazing and uplifting story even despite a loss of one life. God bless the pilots, the flight attendants, the fellow passengers, and Jennifer's family. Wonderful story out of a tragic situation , which truly could have been so much worse, without this expertise and faith.
The pilot is an angel. reminds me of Sulley, both drew from their experiences and training in handling the crisis perfectly, but this pilot had something extra, something special, which I believe was her faith. wish I could meet her and just bask in her regal presence.
At this year's EAA Airventure, Tammie Jo was part of a panel group of female pilots speaking about their experiences and hopes for the future. Tammie Jo told a story illustrating how she found that the toughest things she had to face ended up being helpful later on. Apparently her first commanding officer was a good sport about women being allowed to fly Navy fighter jets, but the second one definitely was not. (The first women ended up being instructor pilots because, while they could fly fighters, they weren't allowed in combat squadrons until much later.) After a year of basic instructing, it was typical for pilots to upgrade to specific types of instruction like air-to-air, air-to-ground or carrier operations. I don't remember exactly what Tammie Jo wanted to upgrade into, but when she approached the CO, he said, "Girls can't do that!" and sent her away. The next week she approached him again and was told the same thing. The third week she approached him again. "You aren't going to quit bothering me, are you. Ok, you can do OCF." OCF was out of control flight - spins, stalls and any other unpleasant situations a fighter pilot needed to know how to get a plane out of to keep flying and fighting. Tammie dscribed how she had to teach classes of students these maneuvers, and calm most of them because of all the horrible stories they heard about the training. She wrapped up by sweetly (and dryly) adding, "That sure came in handy many years later!"
I can tell you that fear did exist in that aircraft but what the difference is is that courage prevailed. Courage is facing fear and pushing through it even not knowing what's on the other side of it. The other thing, of course no one knew for certain if they were gonna be okay but you HAVE TO believe that you are. It's the will to live that often carries us. The crew was absolutely courageous and I thank God for people like them.
@@Ira06002 I disagree sir. It's an awful thing no doubt but I wondered that also. She's supposed to ask the less comfortable questions. It's not a PR tape.
Air pressure + bits of exploded engine parts striking the window and nearby metal stretching it wide enough to create a enlarged hole that can suck a person out of it. This is common sense. The question didn't need to be asked. I think it was only asked to increase viewer ship and ratings.
An almost great ending ,apart from the loss of a life ,but we must not forget that it could have been much ,much worse ,we have to be thankful of that good flight crew once again.
Incredible FLIGHT ATTENDANTS! If I ever fly I want those 3 women on my flight. Also, what class to bring the conversation back to all the other passengers and not answer the question about the one who died.
Love SOUTHWEST! I’m a frequent flyer lately always on Southwest. Never has anyone from ground crew to the flight attendants to the pilots they have been SUPER to me. I’m blind and they ALWAYS have helped me adjust. I’m also a retired RN. Blind or not I’d help in any emergency 🚨. Their attitude is similar to being a nurse. Empathy is so important. Never let them see your fear or your knowledge they are dying unless they specifically ask us to. God put heroes on that plane for that reason. My thanks and appreciation to ALL SW employed for ALWAYS getting me on and off that plane alive and well! Kudos SOUTHWEST! RIP Jennifer 💝💔
As if Gayle has really been in a risky airplane situation and looked at the flight attendant’s face to get a “true read” on the situation. Why not just say “if I were in a similar situation I would”.
To me the key thing the captain said was when she said "we let the aircraft do what it wanted to do which was decend...so we decended then put a plan together". Many would've tried to fight the aircraft to get it corrected. To me that is the difference in good and great pilots.
I think they’re heroes! Professional and compassionate. I laughed when I read some of the more blasé comments - those are the people who would’ve peed their pants, but of course they’re brave at the computer keyboard :)
Yeah. Flying with a single engine failure is possible to do safely and it's something well trained for but this crew dealt with 5 problems at once. Engine explosion, rapid decompression, fuel lines cut, hydraulic lines cut and a medical emergency on board. Dealing with just one of those at a time is not something everyone can even do
Don't get me wrong for I have nothing but deep admiration and respect for military pilots. But civilian pilots are just as well trained, professional and calm in emergency situations. Let us not forget Cap. Alfred C. Haynes, a civilian, who crash-landed a DC10 (and saved 172 lives) at Sioux City, Iowa on July 19, 1989 after suffering a catastrophic failure of its tail-mounted engine, which led to the loss of many flight controls. Or the pilots (civilian trained) of the Aloha Airlines that lost a big section of its fuselage in flight.
Im just happy they let everyone in the crew speak their mind. When 1549 happened all the attention was on Sully and NOBODY let Skiles speak in those interviews which was upsetting in my opinion. One crew member can't exist without the other, Skiles was there just as much as Sully was.
Absolutely he was! We didn't hear any of the flight attendants on that flight speak either. And they also had the responsibility of making sure everyone on board was safe.
Southwest Airlines is one of the safest airlines I’ve never heard of a major crash from them however even one life gone that life is precious remember Southwest 1248 in 2005?
I love Capt Tammie Schultz & her calmness & professionalism through the situation. I really love how they all talked about their faith before getting on board & they were all able to communicate through God’s presence on the flight 🙏🏽🙏🏽
What these fine people did not mention is the rigorous training that they all must be involved in, in order to react instinctively regardless of the situation.
And Rachel was a lovely person..in fact they all were in their own unique way. They did marvelously..blessed passengers that day. The staff managed to keep them pretty calm by the sounds.
I was terrified on a flight from all the turbulence and I said a prayer and the peace I had immediately after was completely unexplainable. Too God be the Glory. Share your testimonies!!!
Yes me too. On one flight as we start to descend the motors roaring then quieten, roar & quieten..it was unnerving. Passengers were crying out prayers & crossing themselves..I just put my head to seat in front & quietly pray..keep eyes on Lord. We landed with bump but safely..brakes seemed to be screeching but probably my imagination. It was a big airbus type of plane..huge.
For those who are saying that the pilot or CBS is "shoving BS religion down our throats," consider this: You are listening to people's perspective. How can you so disrespect that? If you aren't faith-based, that's fine. Others are, and that's fine too. Why be so brutal? I find that atheists are more zealous in their disbelief than most evangelicals are zealous in their belief. Curios and ironic.
I agree, atheists are just as bad, if not worse. I am a Roman Catholic, but I don't shove my beliefs down everyone's throats. Religion is very PERSONAL to me (as it should be). I don't spend my life trying to convince everyone else how "religious" I am!
I'm an Agnostic so that must not be so bad because I was completely fine with it. They were telling you who they are. That should be respected completely as long as they ( from either side ) aren't trying to jam it down your throat, which they weren't. We should all learn to accept people whose beliefs are different from ours. They were different from mine, and as long as you respect my universe and don't try to alter it, I will respect yours. I had no problem with it.
I agree. I’m an atheist, and while I did roll my eyes a bit at some of the religious stuff, they were asked for their perspective, and they gave it. If I’m in an airplane during an emergency, I could not care less if my pilots are religious or not. They could worship a box of Cheez-its for all I care, as long as they are well trained and do their job.
Self true: amen, kind of funny how people who don’t believe want you to respect their non beliefs while they don’t respect yours. If you don’t believe why do you care what others do. Does it hurt your feelings or what? I don’t get why it matters.
Man, Gail really has a lot of mobid curiousity... I'll bet she even watches the beheading videos... PEOPLE, you've got to have self-discipline to not go THERE if you don't want these scenarios stuck in your head causing PTSD.. just don't go there.
Great lesson in cockpit resource management but that lady pilot's voice is so soothing I think if she said 'We're gonna crash in a big fireball' I'd sit back in my seat and relax with a smile of contentment!
I'm surprised everytime a crew succeds after an emergency they are called heros. They did what they were trained for. With extreme professionalism and following the procedures under an emergency situation. They did a GREAT job for sure! A HERO is a fighter pilot that, instead of ejecting on an emergency and let his plane crash. Stays in the cockpit and dies to make sure it crashes in a non habitated area.
Definition of a hero: “a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities.” Are you saying that this crew had no courage? Didn’t get the aircraft down even though one engine was blown off? Or didn’t show commitment to saving each person on board?
@@MNBluestater I’m saying what is written in my previous message. The crew did his job great. Landing successfully with a single engine is not uncommon. In fact, planes are designed to fly and land without problems with a failed engine. That crew, and me as a pilot, trained to deal with this situation. You don’t need courage. Just stay calm and follow the procedures.
@@@randomvideos_658 Dear Cynthia Abreu I thought it was funny, but it is not (Sorry) nothing happened, except for one victim after She R.I.P. and god blessing Capt. Tammie Jo Shults. you are right if there was another capt this would have been different. but that is also looking in a cristal sphere
It must have been so hard for the loved ones of the woman who died to know that this is celebrated as a success. Obviously it WAS a success in many ways, but... to them, it's a total failure. They lost the ONLY person on that plane who truly mattered to them, so while the saving of the other lives may be something they're glad happened, it's a footnote in their eyes.
Capt Tammie Schultz, “The survival of 148 never eclipses the loss of one.”
A sobering thought and oh how true!
She is amazingly calm, kind and brilliant. God bless you Captain.

Asking how a person could fit through an airplane window, knowing the violent and traumatic nature of her death, was wildly inappropriate at best.
ABSOLUTELY terrible to ask such a terrible question.

Ya true that question was bs
When Rachel was talking first, Gayle cut her off at the end and I was shocked. Very rude already.
The interviewer was the only one asking relevant questions...the flight crew was just doing PR damage control for the company.
The captain is an exceptional leader. She gives an aura of professionalism and strong leadership. A true role model not only for women, but to men as well.
As a private pilot, I met many pilots but Captain Shults was so calming throughout the flight and talking to ATC. Absolutely amazing pilot.

Awesome lady all around, she was my Sunday School teacher in Boerne, TX.

This is why I always wear the seatbelt, even when the sign is not on.

The lady that died had her seat belt on.
Sean Cassity you know how?
The victim had the belt fastened as new updates disclosed. This is why she was not lost. Passengers are very close to the window - I hope this explains everything and no need to discuss further details.

@@Ira06002 I disagree sir. It's an awful thing no doubt but I wondered that also. She's supposed to ask the less comfortable questions. It's not a PR tape.
Air pressure + bits of exploded engine parts striking the window and nearby metal stretching it wide enough to create a enlarged hole that can suck a person out of it. This is common sense. The question didn't need to be asked. I think it was only asked to increase viewer ship and ratings.
Maybe she was told to ask those questions.
The crew is amazing, God bless them.
An almost great ending ,apart from the loss of a life ,but we must not forget that it could have been much ,much worse ,we have to be thankful of that good flight crew once again.
Incredible FLIGHT ATTENDANTS! If I ever fly I want those 3 women on my flight. Also, what class to bring the conversation back to all the other passengers and not answer the question about the one who died.
All of those crew members are incredible! They should all share the credit.
Love SOUTHWEST! I’m a frequent flyer lately always on Southwest. Never has anyone from ground crew to the flight attendants to the pilots they have been SUPER to me. I’m blind and they ALWAYS have helped me adjust. I’m also a retired RN. Blind or not I’d help in any emergency 🚨. Their attitude is similar to being a nurse. Empathy is so important. Never let them see your fear or your knowledge they are dying unless they specifically ask us to. God put heroes on that plane for that reason. My thanks and appreciation to ALL SW employed for ALWAYS getting me on and off that plane alive and well! Kudos SOUTHWEST! RIP Jennifer 💝💔
Being a veteran FA for nearly 30 years. I've got total confidence in our flight deck crew.
That was just so gross to keep pressing the question about fitting through the window!
Thank you CBS for uploading this awesome lady pilot interview.
How could she go out the window? The pure suction FORCE!
As if Gayle has really been in a risky airplane situation and looked at the flight attendant’s face to get a “true read” on the situation. Why not just say “if I were in a similar situation I would”.

I thought the same.
Gail is way out of line with that comment. Cold and judgmental. I am really glad they other lady spoke up.
@@Cbleueyes These people who host national news shows are a pretty judgemental breed, I'm so glad someone else sees that.
Honestly, if you watch these shows enough to know these people's names, then you are watching too much. In myyy opinion.
The flight crew are heroes
These people are hero’s. Sad about the lady that passed. They got that plane down without more fatalities. God Bless.
To me the key thing the captain said was when she said "we let the aircraft do what it wanted to do which was decend...so we decended then put a plan together". Many would've tried to fight the aircraft to get it corrected. To me that is the difference in good and great pilots.
BRAVO CBS!! Well done interview!! Thank you God for people who recognize your mercy n love.🌹
Hire for attitude and train for skill. This proves it
Wow, I am moved by their heroism, cohesion and crew's faith.
Impressive crew....Lucky passengers...
What an awesome pilot... and crew!
I think they’re heroes! Professional and compassionate. I laughed when I read some of the more blasé comments - those are the people who would’ve peed their pants, but of course they’re brave at the computer keyboard :)
Yeah. Flying with a single engine failure is possible to do safely and it's something well trained for but this crew dealt with 5 problems at once. Engine explosion, rapid decompression, fuel lines cut, hydraulic lines cut and a medical emergency on board. Dealing with just one of those at a time is not something everyone can even do
The pilot is a boss!
Don't get me wrong for I have nothing but deep admiration and respect for military pilots. But civilian pilots are just as well trained, professional and calm in emergency situations. Let us not forget Cap. Alfred C. Haynes, a civilian, who crash-landed a DC10 (and saved 172 lives) at Sioux City, Iowa on July 19, 1989 after suffering a catastrophic failure of its tail-mounted engine, which led to the loss of many flight controls. Or the pilots (civilian trained) of the Aloha Airlines that lost a big section of its fuselage in flight.
Didn't think it was a competition :)
Or China Airlines where the engine exploded after landing and the captain left the aircraft at last.
All are true heroes.
Or Sully, from "Miracle On The Hudson."
@@leannestrong1000 He was Air Force
@@airbusman5514 That may very well be. But he is still a true hero.
That host is something else. "Did you really think everything is going to be okay?"
Tammie is both smart and attractive.
If only she could credit her training and years of dedication to her profession instead of God.
I thought she said she was a naval aviator, and instructor, not a God aviator. I think she knows where her piloting skills come from.
The training she learned on how to be calm in the navy helped her save passanger's lives
She is combat pilot previously. That make her very calm.
She's the whole package, that's for sure. A true inspiration and role model.
Im just happy they let everyone in the crew speak their mind. When 1549 happened all the attention was on Sully and NOBODY let Skiles speak in those interviews which was upsetting in my opinion. One crew member can't exist without the other, Skiles was there just as much as Sully was.
Absolutely he was! We didn't hear any of the flight attendants on that flight speak either. And they also had the responsibility of making sure everyone on board was safe.
Wonderful group of people ❤️
Tammy thank GOD you were on that plane. U r the revolution of women. You r a hero. And I'd love for you to be my pilot
Southwest Airlines is one of the safest airlines I’ve never heard of a major crash from them however even one life gone that life is precious remember Southwest 1248 in 2005?
I love Capt Tammie Schultz & her calmness & professionalism through the situation. I really love how they all talked about their faith before getting on board & they were all able to communicate through God’s presence on the flight 🙏🏽🙏🏽
What these fine people did not mention is the rigorous training that they all must be involved in, in order to react instinctively regardless of the situation.
And Rachel was a lovely person..in fact they all were in their own unique way. They did marvelously..blessed passengers that day. The staff managed to keep them pretty calm by the sounds.
I would rather fly Southwest than any other airline. I feel like I matter to them.
I've been flying Southwest since 2002.
They are very good at what they do !
I was terrified on a flight from all the turbulence and I said a prayer and the peace I had immediately after was completely unexplainable. Too God be the Glory. Share your testimonies!!!
Yes me too. On one flight as we start to descend the motors roaring then quieten, roar & quieten..it was unnerving. Passengers were crying out prayers & crossing themselves..I just put my head to seat in front & quietly pray..keep eyes on Lord.
We landed with bump but safely..brakes seemed to be screeching but probably my imagination.
It was a big airbus type of plane..huge.
Wow what an amazing woman RIP to Jennifer
For those who are saying that the pilot or CBS is "shoving BS religion down our throats," consider this: You are listening to people's perspective. How can you so disrespect that? If you aren't faith-based, that's fine. Others are, and that's fine too. Why be so brutal? I find that atheists are more zealous in their disbelief than most evangelicals are zealous in their belief. Curios and ironic.
I agree, atheists are just as bad, if not worse. I am a Roman Catholic, but I don't shove my beliefs down everyone's throats. Religion is very PERSONAL to me (as it should be). I don't spend my life trying to convince everyone else how "religious" I am!
I'm an Agnostic so that must not be so bad because I was completely fine with it. They were telling you who they are. That should be respected completely as long as they ( from either side ) aren't trying to jam it down your throat, which they weren't. We should all learn to accept people whose beliefs are different from ours. They were different from mine, and as long as you respect my universe and don't try to alter it, I will respect yours. I had no problem with it.
I agree. I’m an atheist, and while I did roll my eyes a bit at some of the religious stuff, they were asked for their perspective, and they gave it. If I’m in an airplane during an emergency, I could not care less if my pilots are religious or not. They could worship a box of Cheez-its for all I care, as long as they are well trained and do their job.
Self true: amen, kind of funny how people who don’t believe want you to respect their non beliefs while they don’t respect yours. If you don’t believe why do you care what others do. Does it hurt your feelings or what? I don’t get why it matters.
Self True agreed and I’m a Buddhist!
Man, Gail really has a lot of mobid curiousity... I'll bet she even watches the beheading videos... PEOPLE, you've got to have self-discipline to not go THERE if you don't want these scenarios stuck in your head causing PTSD.. just don't go there.
Reporter: And how many times did you scream and what did you scream at what frequency level? Wtf
Real heroes!
God bless southwest Airlines and its crews
This woman is putting to the stoicism a lesson on how to stand straight.
Truly heroes and coolbloded professionals.God bless you captitain and your crew!
Great lesson in cockpit resource management but that lady pilot's voice is so soothing I think if she said 'We're gonna crash in a big fireball' I'd sit back in my seat and relax with a smile of contentment!
The air pilot is beautiful for her age. She is a hero and them all.
She's beautiful for any age.
Damn this was incredible best news cbs, cnn has produced in a long time good job tammie jo
Such a great Crew. Bravo!
"the plane was on autopilot" let that sink in
that's completely, completely normal. so is the fact that he immediately started to handle the situation when things started going wrong
Southwest has the best employees, peoples!
Faith and experience!!!!
And training!!!
The peace that passes all understanding.
I'm surprised everytime a crew succeds after an emergency they are called heros. They did what they were trained for. With extreme professionalism and following the procedures under an emergency situation. They did a GREAT job for sure!
A HERO is a fighter pilot that, instead of ejecting on an emergency and let his plane crash. Stays in the cockpit and dies to make sure it crashes in a non habitated area.
preferrably they do both..
Definition of a hero: “a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities.” Are you saying that this crew had no courage? Didn’t get the aircraft down even though one engine was blown off? Or didn’t show commitment to saving each person on board?
@@MNBluestater I’m saying what is written in my previous message. The crew did his job great. Landing successfully with a single engine is not uncommon. In fact, planes are designed to fly and land without problems with a failed engine. That crew, and me as a pilot, trained to deal with this situation. You don’t need courage. Just stay calm and follow the procedures.
What a great crew!!!! I’d fly anytime with them!!!!
There is power in knowing God. I wish to fly with captain Tammie someday
Imagine if this happened over open water, like the middle of the Atlantic ocean :(
@Cynthia Abreu
Imagine if this happened in space near the rings of saturnus
@@johncarter6238 Ha...Ha...Ha ...very clever and funny, the award for most sacrcastic comment of the day goes to you John LOL...love it lol
@@@randomvideos_658 Dear Cynthia Abreu I thought it was funny, but it is not (Sorry) nothing happened, except for one victim after She R.I.P. and god blessing Capt. Tammie Jo Shults. you are right if there was another capt this would have been different. but that is also looking in a cristal sphere
Cynthia Abreu With one engine out they could’ve gotten back to land but if the second one was to fail that wouldn’t be good.
@@Broccoli_32 Very true, sad situation but glad they made it.
I am not religious, but it is undeniable what confidence faith can give to some people.
It must have been so hard for the loved ones of the woman who died to know that this is celebrated as a success. Obviously it WAS a success in many ways, but... to them, it's a total failure. They lost the ONLY person on that plane who truly mattered to them, so while the saving of the other lives may be something they're glad happened, it's a footnote in their eyes.
Definitely was a mishandled situation and negligence on the airlines part.... Looks like it resulted in a 1B lawsuit.
Thank you for posting this!
