You have absolutely no comprehension of the cost in aviation. Maintenance, fuel, government regs, "security" and airport fees..... The government loves to tax businesses also.
Andy Peterson I know how narrow airline's margins can be, but if you want more people to become qualified pilots, they have to know that they'll be able to find well paying work after all their money spent and practice hours.
Even though cell phone use doesn't affect the flying process, I really don't want them to be allowed any time soon. Can you imagine having to listen to people talk on their phones throughout the entire flight? Annoying!
Kieran Gannon But no phone calls. I already know that there are some airlines that host WiFi in their fleet. But no network operator, so no phone calls.
It's okay. Since I can't use my cellphone in flight, I make do by talking with other passengers. Incessantly. For the whole flight. (Don't tell me you haven't experienced that before. And don't tell me you wouldn't have rather them been on a cell phone!)
I am a licensed A&P (airframe and power plant) mechanic. I work I passenger planes. The non bottled water(potable or drinking water) tank is Cleaned regularly and tested. Regardless. Most straight water is battled or caned anyway. And coffee. The water is heated enough to kill any bacteria that could form even if not cleaned. So though most of what he said is true. That one is utterly false.
honestly man you're not going to get a big airline job down in Miami unless you know some people. Mostly its repair stations like AAR or Miami Tech that will pick you up. Miami is awful for aviation in my experience.
Dear, Mr Casey Sawyer I strongly agree to this here statement to that I admire and respect the work you do and thank you to keeping our aircraft in the sky, and also your work to uphold and maintain the safety of our beloved passion of aviation. Yours, CAPT. Brenden R. Howard
Then is the conspiracy theory of the brace for impact true. The theory is the airline tells you to duck down with your hands over you head. People think this way if you get in the crash that your neck will break and they want to have this happen so there is no lawsuits against them. Is this true?
literally, I watched this video bc I'm scared of flying, as soon as I heard those words my brain filled with fire and a melting face because of that film
niceguytim ok thanks now I know to get in a plane instead of on top of it. Now my next flight will be nice and have plenty of oxygen and it won’t feel like it’s -60
niceguytim I live in London and that’s how they say it as proper English people,it’s on not in.They say get in the bus ,get on the train etc,Thata how the English say it so he’s not wrong.Do your research properly to see the correct saying
+list25 Amarildo's correction is still correct, however. The point she was making is that #19 doesn't prevent food poisoning either. It prevents BOTH pilots from potentially getting poisoned by eating the same meal or sharing food. Even #19 doesn't fully protect against both pilots getting sick, as all the meals are made in the same place. However it does make the possibility much less likely.
+Amarildo Júnior It's actually to prevent both pilots from getting out of the cockpit and going to the flight attendants if something is wrong with their meals.
#26: When somebody dies and their body needs to be sent to another city (that's not just an hour's drive away) the body is shipped as special cargo in airliners. In other words, when you go flying, there could be one or more dead bodies just a few feet below you.
+Dragon029 This is true. I know a friend who passed away in another city. Her body was flown back by her parents back home on a passenger plane as Special Cargo. Its Spooky.
Fact 02.. 20 million dollar plane? A 737-700, costs 80 million dollars, and thats a "cheap" plane.. For example, the dreamliner costs around 350 million dollars.
That is for trainees. For a full time job, its around half a mill, to a million a year. The shortage is usually because they are very strict on their pilots.
+Zach Hellbender (cjf27) This is what the airlines want you to believe. However reality is much different. Pay = Flight hours and rank. The best pilots, with over 20 years of flight experience, flying big planes, as captain(1st Pilot), in the majors (The big airlines), are earning about 200k a year. Realistically most pilot earn between 70k-150k if they are in the majors. The regional airlines pay a lot less, 20k-40k. Being a pilot is not a lucrative as it may seem
+Andreas Wendelboe Agreed. And that low salary for regional airlines for 5 years is After dumping $70,000 into training and working as a flight instructor getting paid $15,000/year for 2 years. And that is also just for the regional to schedule an interview!
+TheS1E2A3L4 At least the stuff you're afraid of losing (medicine, valuables, souvenirs), stuff that isn't vital or that you could care less about (such as most clothing and toiletries) you can put in the check on.
+Keil Gilby they did something wrong .. Judging by the lights.. you can see the two main landing lights in the middle of the wing and the other 2 centre of the fuselage .. Lookd like it to mee.. suggesting it was in a left bank and a steep dive.
Pilot here. The cell phone thing is actually an FCC rule that may be changing as well. When a cell phone (the old analog type) was used in an airplane it could tie up several towers at once since there are no line of sight limits. That said, cell coverage normally drops off above 3,000 feet due to the angle of the transmitters anyway.
mobile devices CAN fuck with communication equipment. Pilots sometimes hear phone conversations through their headset which is not good when trying to talk to traffic control in congested airspace.
RAF Benson You actually can its just people still have the idea that if you use your phone on a flight it will mess with air traffic control but really they change they setup a while ago you just cant use it during take off
list25 aww, I don't want to sleep on a chair! IM ANNOYED OF THESE PEOPLE BENDING CHAIRS INTO ME WHEN IM SLEEPING! GIVE MEH MAY SECRET! GIVE THE BACON THE SECRET!!!!!!!!!!!!! LoL.... I just want my bed..
Minimum wage cargo workers? $19k a year pilots?!? What is this?!? The airline industry is a huge money maker, I don't understand. I'm a landscaper and I make $17 an hour. I had about a 3 month learning curve and studied for about 20 hours for my pesticide license. Pilots require so much more training and experience and make less than me?!? Crazy.
The airline industry is not a huge money maker, most airlines have a hard time making ends meet. Certain employees however has a fat paycheck. Pilots for instance.
I think that's the most accurate video about flying facts , except few things -We don't eat different meals usually but we try to avoid having the same -Electronic devices doesn't interfere with flight instruments "but" Wifi does if used near the flight deck , radio calls is a different story -Flying over ocean is not radar monitored routes and spacing between flights is done using ETA and speed/time spacing one more fact for giggles and smiles: Airplanes spend around 4 hours on ground and fly 20 hours daily , they never stop unless they're scheduled for major maintenance or wash.
Fact number 8 reminds me of the time I flew from Denver to Detroit with a stop in Minneapolis. Our first leg of the flight home arrived a bit late and they didn't have time to put our bags on our plane home. They had to wait for the next flight to Detroit a few hours later. My dad and I had to sit in the airport until 2am waiting for our bags to arrive. I was 5 years old at the time so I was tired as hell and fell asleep before we even left.
Nice video... nice channel!!! just a few corrections... #25 you are right no radar but nowadays we have adsb which uses satellite. #19 actually eating different meals is a suggestion in long range flights #I've been drinking coffee all day long for the past 15years and nothing ever happened to me #1 electronics may not affect (still in study) systems of the airplane... but they are still very dangerous objects mainly in take offs and landings... imagine a cel phone flying in your head at 200knots if something happens... they still obeys the laws of physics. sorry for the corrections and best regards
+Vista Panoramica you're wrong. You and your cell phone would be travelling at the same speed. None of this having it hit your head at 200 knots stuff. You used 200 knots so we use it as constant velocity. It's simple physics. It doesn't sound like you ever took physics. Think of standing in an empty boxcar travelling at say 25 mph (32 kph). Jump up as high as you can. You'll land on the spot that you jumped from. No you won't be displaced or splatted against the back wall. However if there is a change in the velocity of the boxcar while you're in the air you will land in a different spot.
Minkki82 - then you should not be allowed to hold anything including the very deadly pen and pencil. Imagine crashing and a pen thrusting into your skull ... but then again we don't really need to prepare for crashing and loose objects becoming projectiles since most planes make it to their destination ... trust me, a cell phone is the least of your worries in a crash (which you are very unlikely to survive whether or not you have been hit by a flying cell phone)
Yeah. The reason for putting luggage away is more for evacuation. Also apparently I heard that the reason that phones must be in airplane mode is actually because it changes towers wayyyyy to quickly in the air.
Well, I am, but that's besides the point. What you and the video said was blatantly un-factual. Few animals, including cats enjoy being stuck in a cage and put in an airplane; it's terrifying for them. Here is another thing the airlines don't tell you. The safety of your pet depends on a laser hitting a diode. What do I mean by that? Well, that's how the cargo smoke detector works, if smoke, or anything else blocks the laser the flight crew gets an alarm telling them there is a cargo fire. At which point they are obligated to deploy halon into the cargo hold, which puts out a fire, but also kills anything in there because it displaces oxygen. I would never ship my pet in the cargo hold of a plane myself.
+Carver the AMD Fanboy Hi there iv been waiting for you, i mean that when someone has their mobile phone turned on or in use, when you use air communications radios the sound quallity can get cranky and bad, iv experienced this my self when flying cessna and the pilot told me that as well.
In Australia you can use your phone. Just put the airplane mode on and they shouldn't care. Some people even have phone calls on planes and air crew don't care. Virgin Australia offers free wifi as well...
+Vanessa Martin As far as I know, it's okay in Canada as well. I don't see calls being made, but there's always tablets and phones on the go. I just flew with Air Canada, and they rent out iPads now, so you can connect to their wifi and watch movies and tv shows. First class seats even had a strap on the back to mount tablets in front of you.
Worked at an airport and can confirm that inexperienced people operate the pushbacks. One guy had me do it and I had only been working there for a couple weeks with zero pushback training.
What about the fact that the "safety position" you've been taught to assume when you're in a crashing plane was designed to kill passengers? Airlines designed it this way so that no passengers will live to sue their company. The position, where you put your hands behind your neck and lean towards the chair in front of you, ensures death. Your hands snap your neck on impact when you hit the seat in front of you (which is painless) as well as preserves your teeth so that your body can be identified upon discovery. The more you know!
I really don't believe that, but I have wondered about that. In hockey you're always taught to look at what you're going to so you don't break your neck. I feel like the way they have you lean would break your neck if you were to be thrusted into the seat in front of you.
As for the last one, you are correct, the reason they say this is to keep you off them during important instructions and important flight phases. They don't want everyone blowing off the brief or not hear instructions during an emergency. They want passengers to be alert at those times.
Oh we did number 24 once. When me and my family flew from Gatwick to JFK, we thought the queues were too long. Because my grandma was old, we told people that she should be in a wheelchair because she can't stand in very long queues. So, we got a wheelchair (I don't know why, but there were this load stacked up next to us) and pushed her down the priority lane! Well, we weren't lying, were we? She was old... OK she could walk, but people didn't need to know that...
Mostly they don't, but sometimes they do affect the radios. So, imagine this situation where you've been in the skies (out of cell reception) for 10 hours, and on approach to your destination, everyone gets reception again and all those missed calls and texts starts flowing in, it would be extremely annoying to the pilots, and sometimes dangerous if important transmissions are missed.
Radios transmitting on the same frequencies/bandwidth that the airplane radios use could interfere. Other radio frequencies could also interfere, but much less likely due to cable shielding. Some of these radios are used to navigate the airplane in near-zero-visibility weather conditions. If the navigation systems were to fail while you were taking off or landing in very low visibility, it could be dangerous. There are multiple redundant systems though. Cellphones are fine, but you could potentially cause an accident with a cheap VHF radio transmitter you bought from RadioShack. Given that you have a high-level of knowledge of the inner workings of aircraft navigation systems, you could write some software that could trick the airplane into thinking it was somewhere that it wasn't - preferably something believable, like being a half mile off course. Even then, the pilots probably would detect the anomaly and not crash, and ATC/radar would inform the pilots that they are off course and heading for an obstruction. Plus, in order to execute this plan, you probably wouldn't want to be onboard the airplane. You could interfere with navigation systems just sitting in a van on the ground outside of the airport, but the FCC has ways of tracking down these "pirate radio" operators (people transmitting that shouldn't be transmitting).
+Eagle 011 he takes random pauses in the middle of his sentences that shouldn't be there & stretches out words that doesn't need to be stretched to provide the dramatic effect.
good list you got a few things right we do use the MEL IAW 14 cfr 129.1 4 of course each aircraft have there own but it's a good and it is true that many airline are in need of pilot due to a lot of pilot reaching their retirement age, and most airline are buying more aircrafts and new hubs, but aircraft maintenance technician are in bigger demands. good list.
3:47 thats what happened when we came from bali back to australia and the attendant told us that and everyone started talking about it and we were hoping it wasn't our bags that were left behind at bali
I think most long-haul flights have "secret rooms" for the crew to sleep. In A380's it's probably at the rear of one of the decks, on other planes it's in the top of the hull, up a ladder. Though some 777's, despite being "single deck", have the toilets "downstairs", there's probably another "downstairs" for the crew too.
If I watched this video a second time this title would be a lie.
Hahaha
Yea

I already knew this stuff the first time around lol
If there's a pilot shortage, maybe they should try paying them more.

Preach brother!
ThoolooExpress
----> The first place to start is to get the government out of taxing the life out of businesses.
Pay is not the issue. It's the fact that it is very difficult and a long expensive process to get all the licenses required to fly.
Even though cell phone use doesn't affect the flying process, I really don't want them to be allowed any time soon. Can you imagine having to listen to people talk on their phones throughout the entire flight? Annoying!
People cant talk on their phones at 30000 feet, there's no signal :)
+FROSTIX You can inside the US on some airlines and some international airlines have wifi.
Kieran Gannon But no phone calls. I already know that there are some airlines that host WiFi in their fleet. But no network operator, so no phone calls.
+FROSTIX most phones have WiFi calling. all I need it WiFi to call someone if I don't have service.
It's okay. Since I can't use my cellphone in flight, I make do by talking with other passengers. Incessantly. For the whole flight.

ohhh is this all a giant lie ????
Which part are lies?
As a 30 year retired airline pilot, they're all true. though some are a tad misleading.
Then is the conspiracy theory of the brace for impact true. The theory is the airline tells you to duck down with your hands over you head. People think this way if you get in the crash that your neck will break and they want to have this happen so there is no lawsuits against them. Is this true?
2:15 Please don't use the words "final destination" in association with air travel. Thank you in advance.
literally, I watched this video bc I'm scared of flying, as soon as I heard those words my brain filled with fire and a melting face because of that film

I thought of the Super Smash Bros stage.
i thought of "final destination"
I thought of that scene in the Final Destination stage (SSB4) where the sun is colliding into the Earth.
if you can't use phones then why does the phone have airplane mode
lmao. So True
Phones mess with airplane technology's...
It's proven it doesn't
Chaniel Hernandez the plane I went on the other day used pay to call service thing
Nigga u can use ur phone but not for calling
If you order tea or coffee from a dirty water tank. Wouldn't tea or coffee be fine seeing as the water would be boiled and the bacteria would die ??
You are correct
There are things that survive boiling water in hot springs.
The water isn't boiled though.
The tanks are regularly sanitized. If there was a problem with people getting sick from the coffee or tea the airlines would stop serving them.
It's fine to drink coffee or tea, but not water which wasn't bottled - it's the same water that's used in the toilet.
You don't get on a plane, you get in a plane.
Well crap. Nobody told me that...
You don’t even get in a plane - you board it.

One of the few videos that really tell everything correctly! Good job ;)

They put it on the next plane going to your destination

mobile devices CAN fuck with communication equipment. Pilots sometimes hear phone conversations through their headset which is not good when trying to talk to traffic control in congested airspace.
Different frequency so nope and if it was the same then it would sound like dial-up not an actual conversation
It also fucks with some of the sensors

Ikr, imagine being a pilot and get paid that low for being responsible for 200+/- people.

most of your money goes to the airport and federal taxes. The airline doesn´t get more than 10 percent of what you pay

Gotta leave vacation in about a week 😫
Would be weirder if you got off on a plane.
I think that's the most accurate video about flying facts , except few things
-We don't eat different meals usually but we try to avoid having the same
-Electronic devices doesn't interfere with flight instruments "but" Wifi does if used near the flight deck , radio calls is a different story
-Flying over ocean is not radar monitored routes and spacing between flights is done using ETA and speed/time spacing
one more fact for giggles and smiles:
Airplanes spend around 4 hours on ground and fly 20 hours daily , they never stop unless they're scheduled for major maintenance or wash.

#25 you are right no radar but nowadays we have adsb which uses satellite.
#19 actually eating different meals is a suggestion in long range flights
#I've been drinking coffee all day long for the past 15years and nothing ever happened to me
#1 electronics may not affect (still in study) systems of the airplane... but they are still very dangerous objects mainly in take offs and landings... imagine a cel phone flying in your head at 200knots if something happens... they still obeys the laws of physics.
sorry for the corrections and best regards
+Vista Panoramica you're wrong. You and your cell phone would be travelling at the same speed. None of this having it hit your head at 200 knots stuff. You used 200 knots so we use it as constant velocity. It's simple physics. It doesn't sound like you ever took physics. Think of standing in an empty boxcar travelling at say 25 mph (32 kph). Jump up as high as you can. You'll land on the spot that you jumped from. No you won't be displaced or splatted against the back wall. However if there is a change in the velocity of the boxcar while you're in the air you will land in a different spot.
Minkki82 - then you should not be allowed to hold anything including the very deadly pen and pencil. Imagine crashing and a pen thrusting into your skull ... but then again we don't really need to prepare for crashing and loose objects becoming projectiles since most planes make it to their destination ... trust me, a cell phone is the least of your worries in a crash (which you are very unlikely to survive whether or not you have been hit by a flying cell phone)
Yeah. The reason for putting luggage away is more for evacuation.
Also apparently I heard that the reason that phones must be in airplane mode is actually because it changes towers wayyyyy to quickly in the air.
@Minkki82 lol crash land last thing im worried about is a cell phone flying around
@@fireflyexposed actually you are 90% more likely to survive a crash than die from it
Cats don't care? What does that mean? Being stuck in a cage in put into an airplane is terrifying for most any animal.
no cats are brave and dont really care where they are
Axutähtivideot You've clearly never traveled with a cat. I have, they generally cry the entire way.
Geez im not really a cat person not to be rude
but now i get the scaredy cat joke xD
Well, I am, but that's besides the point. What you and the video said was blatantly un-factual. Few animals, including cats enjoy being stuck in a cage and put in an airplane; it's terrifying for them. Here is another thing the airlines don't tell you. The safety of your pet depends on a laser hitting a diode. What do I mean by that? Well, that's how the cargo smoke detector works, if smoke, or anything else blocks the laser the flight crew gets an alarm telling them there is a cargo fire. At which point they are obligated to deploy halon into the cargo hold, which puts out a fire, but also kills anything in there because it displaces oxygen. I would never ship my pet in the cargo hold of a plane myself.
Mobile devices do not interfere with flight instruments, BUT RADIO COMMUNICATIONS.
+Carver the AMD Fanboy Hi there iv been waiting for you, i mean that when someone has their mobile phone turned on or in use, when you use air communications radios the sound quallity can get cranky and bad, iv experienced this my self when flying cessna and the pilot told me that as well.
Thank you, you helped me with my phobia & then scared me even more with #2 :(
Congrats on 2mil sub
They ask you turn off you phone for safety instructions and for landing because you might need to evacuate
No ! Leave me alone, I don't care if the plane is on fire ! I just want to finish my Candy Crush game !
Lukas gröndahl What said alison is that they want you to be focused on what is happening.
Yeah exactly, its so you can pay attention, because if the situation happened, you would not know what to do if you where on your phone. XD
7/11 was a part time job
jeb fuel can't melt steel beams
+RingzOfCarnifex u mad bro ?
+RingzOfCarnifex Poor Jeb...
not for some people
Then why do they tell you to not use your phone?
to pay attention to the safety brief and be alert on take off and landing
+Rethinker167 oh OK thanks
so the attendants don't get annoyed by your conversations
So people don't become homicidal in flight because some lady has been on her phone for the past 3 hours talking loudly.
Apparently it makes a feedback sound through the pilot's headphones which, as you can imagine, could be very annoying and could cause a crash.
Being polite and smiling goes a long way with flight attendants. Free drinks and extra snacks.
You're a HOT bear!!
But...wouldn't I have to be gay first to be classified as a bear? LoL ~Mike
+list25 not necessarily. You're straight, big deal, you're physique still makes you a BEAR! Lol
+list25 GAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I will sue you.
+Trump Bot um yay?
In Australia you can use your phone. Just put the airplane mode on and they shouldn't care. Some people even have phone calls on planes and air crew don't care.
Virgin Australia offers free wifi as well...
+Vanessa Martin As far as I know, it's okay in Canada as well. I don't see calls being made, but there's always tablets and phones on the go. I just flew with Air Canada, and they rent out iPads now, so you can connect to their wifi and watch movies and tv shows. First class seats even had a strap on the back to mount tablets in front of you.
In America we have free wifi
+TbonePlays You can have airplane mode and wifi on at the same time.
+TbonePlays bullshit, delta makes u pay.
+Joshua Mosser Same with Southwest.
They all make you pay, so to +TbonePlays.. TELL ME THE AIRLINE THAT HAS FREE WIFI
Why is peter pan always flying?
He neverlands
(I like this joker it never gets old)
Have they ever done a video on 25 scary facts about modern day technology?
Kobe
+kyle de jager #1: Guns can kill you...
+Meteor Red Dragon or is it the people?!?!?!
Million Dollar Gamer
fine Mr 'Technically'..... #1: MODERN guns can kill you.....
+Meteor Red Dragon No, MODERN BULLETS can kill you.
I love the interaction of Tristan. Thanks 😁
Nice video dud 👌👍
19,000 DOLLARS A FUCKING YEAR?
I CANT EVEN GET $1
$19,000 a year isn't even good. To put it into perspective, that's only $4,000 more than a McDonald's crew member working minimum wage makes.
dewkdogg it's fake they pay you 120,000$ a year this is complete bullshit
Happy you showed Windows Phone representing PHONES.
I love my Windows Phone! ~Mike
list25 Same here Mike. I believe in huge potential in it.
Q
It's sad that I can't take this video seriously.
Worked at an airport and can confirm that inexperienced people operate the pushbacks. One guy had me do it and I had only been working there for a couple weeks with zero pushback training.
Congrats on 2m subs
says small regional airlines. yet shows cockpit of concorde...
+SmokingSpitfire this is why its good to have people who study aviation on youtube
+Bassin SoMD exactly, you studying?
no, but I hear about in government ckass
A lot of these are not true coming from a frequent flyer and pilot.
+Justin “geminijets2” L I know
Thank you for being the only one to say that.
Sir Goose you're welcome
LMAO, I want to see this guy trying to do a Cat 1 ILS with everyone near the airports phones on
At 2:00 why is the nose gear down and the main gear not?
idk
I feel like it's poor photoshop job.
Probably
Miracle flights! So good!
1:10
Dogs: I'm scareedddd
Cats: I don't fuck with you
When was the last time you were on a plane?
Me? This January. ~Mike
list25
Where to?
*****
What, I can't be curious?
*****
Oh..... give me some time to laugh.
August 2012 on the Boeing 777, when it had zero fatalities. It now has 540.
What about the fact that the "safety position" you've been taught to assume when you're in a crashing plane was designed to kill passengers? Airlines designed it this way so that no passengers will live to sue their company. The position, where you put your hands behind your neck and lean towards the chair in front of you, ensures death. Your hands snap your neck on impact when you hit the seat in front of you (which is painless) as well as preserves your teeth so that your body can be identified upon discovery. The more you know!
O_O
what
the actual fuck
is this true? 0_0 if so then i will not do it then sue them :)
you forgot about the families of the deceased. They can definitely sue. Before making such a stupid claim why don't you use a little common sense.
I really don't believe that, but I have wondered about that. In hockey you're always taught to look at what you're going to so you don't break your neck. I feel like the way they have you lean would break your neck if you were to be thrusted into the seat in front of you.
Evan Dicesare umm hello US air flight 1549? that position saved lives. so do research about the position before you judge it
what about riding on an airplane?
Worse joke 2016
My family is very involved with the airline business and I will agree most of this is correct.
thankyou,, learned a lot
Nice phone 📱
Thank you! ~Mike
Boi
Nice shirt
Why tf does the guy keep looking down to the right (his left)? It got pretty annoying.
It's how I talk so that I am not just staring into your eyes the entire time. I feel that would be worse and way more creepy. ~Mike
list25
Ok, but maybe look another direction? Lol. Nice video btw. No hate, just a little observation.
He's reading his unfunny script.
+Mogwai Gremlin we need more people like you
Because he has been kidnapped and he is blinking morse cod HELP
Video starts at 00:00 Thank me later ;)
As for the last one, you are correct, the reason they say this is to keep you off them during important instructions and important flight phases. They don't want everyone blowing off the brief or not hear instructions during an emergency. They want passengers to be alert at those times.
Oh we did number 24 once. When me and my family flew from Gatwick to JFK, we thought the queues were too long. Because my grandma was old, we told people that she should be in a wheelchair because she can't stand in very long queues. So, we got a wheelchair (I don't know why, but there were this load stacked up next to us) and pushed her down the priority lane! Well, we weren't lying, were we? She was old... OK she could walk, but people didn't need to know that...
I knew 19
that's cool
19 isn't true anymore
+SunPower unless the pilots bring their own food it still is
19 is not true I've eaten a pilots lunch as the plane had food shortage
+JNLN I'm talking about the pilot and the co pilot cannot have the same lunch, I've talked to a pilot who backed that up
so if phones dont interfere with any thing in the first place why do they say it does...
actually it does a bit but modern smartphone have a minimun interfere,...
Mostly they don't, but sometimes they do affect the radios. So, imagine this situation where you've been in the skies (out of cell reception) for 10 hours, and on approach to your destination, everyone gets reception again and all those missed calls and texts starts flowing in, it would be extremely annoying to the pilots, and sometimes dangerous if important transmissions are missed.
Radios transmitting on the same frequencies/bandwidth that the airplane radios use could interfere. Other radio frequencies could also interfere, but much less likely due to cable shielding. Some of these radios are used to navigate the airplane in near-zero-visibility weather conditions. If the navigation systems were to fail while you were taking off or landing in very low visibility, it could be dangerous. There are multiple redundant systems though.
Cellphones are fine, but you could potentially cause an accident with a cheap VHF radio transmitter you bought from RadioShack. Given that you have a high-level of knowledge of the inner workings of aircraft navigation systems, you could write some software that could trick the airplane into thinking it was somewhere that it wasn't - preferably something believable, like being a half mile off course. Even then, the pilots probably would detect the anomaly and not crash, and ATC/radar would inform the pilots that they are off course and heading for an obstruction. Plus, in order to execute this plan, you probably wouldn't want to be onboard the airplane. You could interfere with navigation systems just sitting in a van on the ground outside of the airport, but the FCC has ways of tracking down these "pirate radio" operators (people transmitting that shouldn't be transmitting).
Phones interfere with communication equipment in the airplane. It is different than flight instruments
some of them are false....
Such as?
Jessica come to Europe and see by yourself
I meant which ones do you think are fake?
Well for EU standards, Number 24, 22, 19, 16, 15, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 7, 6, 5, 4, 2...so you see, there are a lot
and 25
Some of these I already figured out, however you are correct that nobody told me.
Interesting video 👍
I hate the way he talks.
i like the way he talks
+Eagle 011 he takes random pauses in the middle of his sentences that shouldn't be there & stretches out words that doesn't need to be stretched to provide the dramatic effect.
MikeeJ ok
Good to know. I enjoyed this video
congratulations for 2 million subs
These facts are like the notifications you get on your computer, as an example: "You battery is running low". "You installed a new app!"
this kinda calmed me for my first time flying
good list you got a few things right we do use the MEL IAW 14 cfr 129.1 4 of course each aircraft have there own but it's a good and it is true that many airline are in need of pilot due to a lot of pilot reaching their retirement age, and most airline are buying more aircrafts and new hubs, but aircraft maintenance technician are in bigger demands. good list.
Great info and love the airplane noise hahahha
Can u guys do ? A list on top commercial planes ? A380 n Boeings Dreamliner ? :)
1:23 I was going to Berlin in February, and by the time I got there, my lock on my suitcase had disappeared but nothing missing out of it!
4:02 ‚Stop changing baby diapers on them!‘ 😂😂😂
Bro your so funny you just earned a sub!
3:47 thats what happened when we came from bali back to australia and the attendant told us that and everyone started talking about it and we were hoping it wasn't our bags that were left behind at bali
I've watched all ur plane videos about 50 times EACH
Going on an airplane after tomorrow. It's 12:00 AM. I haven't been able to sleep. I am so nervous more then I have ever been before.
I think most long-haul flights have "secret rooms" for the crew to sleep. In A380's it's probably at the rear of one of the decks, on other planes it's in the top of the hull, up a ladder. Though some 777's, despite being "single deck", have the toilets "downstairs", there's probably another "downstairs" for the crew too.
