On 3 May 2006, an #AirbusA320 was on route from Zvartnots International Airport in #Armenia to #Sochi International Airport in #Russia. After a series of confusing commands and requests from ATC, the plane began its approach into Sochi. The crew are becoming more and more frustrated and there is an increasing lack of #communication . What follows is the story of #Armavia Flight 967. Please note, this episode depicts loss of life.

    @Petter: most pilots seem REALLY calm. But not always. I...have to work at emotional self-regulation. I have techniques. Crashes have started with pilots not managing their emotions. Are pilots given an emotional regulation toolkit? If not, It seems like that ought to be part of pilot training. I mean, they don't have to regulate off-duty. But training themselves to regulate in the cockpit, if not happening, could improve performance.

    The entire behaviour from the pilot is probably some of the most disgusting behaviour I’ve heard of. You leave your ego at the door when piloting, you’re supposed to be responsible, calm, respectful, listen to instructions, communicate with your team, and care about your passengers safety. This pilot did none of that, and I’m genuinely shocked he was allowed to fly that length of time with such a toxic attitude.

    ​@@TheHopperUKi agree, but i also think its interesting the battle between pilots and a planes self-preservation systems. For example, modern planes limit control surface deflection angles at higher speeds to protect the plane, but what if the pilots were trying to avoid a collision and needed maximum deflection, even if it meant deformation of the wings or control surfaces etc. Meanwhile a pilot is free to pull up at low air speeds and encourage a stall close to the ground if they miscalculate and pull up too hard. Surely that would have been a perfect time for the plane to limit the attitude authority. Also interesting how the autopilot will only put the nose down in a stall and not touch the throttle. I mean yeah that's the correct thing to do, but there's been accidents where the pilots poor understanding of the automatic systems and stress has led to the throttle remaining at idle during a stall at low altitudes and the autopilot putting the nose down. Basically favouring airspeed at any cost, over altitude etc.

One would assume that the correct response would be drilled into pilots in a way that they would react to it without even needing to think first, almost like a conditioned reflex to the sound (except maybe in super rare circumstances with 100% visual awareness + expecting it to occur). It even includes an audible 'pull up!' for good measure. Is this not included in recurrent training etc?

This is an old-school thing and it’s a dying breed of people in Russia so only a few of these folks left.

They were at 1040ft = 316m. Add 600m to that, and you have your approximate 900m altitude that was selected.

I would be interested to know your thoughts on adding a "Hail Mary" button. If the pilots become completely confused they hit the button and the plane takes over and tries to save the situation. In an situation like this I think it could have saved the flight, the pilots were clearly confused about what was happening but the plane seemed to know.

    I'm usually not too keen on relying entirely on a plane's sensors and programming and stuff, as improper coding and faulty sensors lead to a lot of accidents that could have been avoided. In this case however, an option to just let the plane take over could have very likely prevented this accident from happening. All throughout this story we can see that the plane knew what was going on and understood the steps to correct the issues, but the pilots simply wouldn't let the plane do anything to save the situation. Especially when they disengaged the autothrottle. The plane *knew* it was going too fast and tried to slow itself down, but the pilot disengaged the autothrottle and at that point there was nothing else the plane could do.

There's no reason even with non-pilot passengers that you can't set-up a good CRM. - Have them pre-flight the aircarft with you. - Take them through a pre-flight briefing including weather, NOTAMS, taxi-ways, departure procedures from the GA airfield. - Have them monitor things like the suction gauge, ammeter, check the fuel with you, have them identify landmarks. - Encourage them to challenge you and explain that you will respond positively to challenge. A no-ego culture. - Do an approach briefing with them. I can't think of any negative impact to doing that. - When you call out a check, point to what you checked and get them to confirm etc etc. There's a lot we could do better in GA, that's for sure.

That plus the lack of visual references, relatively little time on the type with an ingrained experience of Russian style primary flight displays which may have come to the for when fatigued and stressed likely led to them becoming disorientated and unable to recover.

    I think it was last week's review. Agree, the fact that the two sticks aren't liked so each pilot has force feedback of what the other is doing is I think a problem. It seems that in all the similar incidents, the pilot that is trying to correct the incorrect actions of the pilot flying forget they have to tell the computer they want to be in control. It also seems ironic that in all these kind of incidents, that if the pilots just let go of the side stick or yoke and made sure the engine thrust was sufficient, the plane would level off and begin a gentle climb. And at a low volume airport like Sochi at 2am, there's probably little chance of hitting another plane, while you do this and take the time get your act together.

    @@jimmyrh247 The idea is likely to prevent the plane from suddenly rolling over because one pilot went hard on the stick. An emergency situation while piloting a plane is likely a hell of a lot easier to recover from if the plane is leveled off, so the average between the sticks was implemented to try and avoid making a problem worse by one pilot or the other. Unfortunately we do end up with problems like the one in this video in regards to the averaging of the inputs, but its not likely to be changed because again-- recovering a plane while leveled is easier than trying to recover one that's rolling sharply. Newer aircraft do have a warning when it detects opposing inputs on the sticks, however, so its not like this issue hasn't ever been addressed. Whether or not the pilots are capable of heeding said warning is another matter, however.

    Now, perhaps I'm a bit biased given a background in drug education and medicine, but it almost feels like the captain could have been abusing some form of stimulant to get him through the night flights. This could be anything from legal caffeine, herbal supplements, or prescribed amphetamines to illegal drugs like cocaine or methamphetamine. My mind immediately clicked onto that route given the Captains apparent jitters (mentioned by the FO), paranoia (the Sochi controller is conspiring against me!), agitation/irritability/irrational behavior (this AP mode is broken! Screw this! We're landing at Sochi, tell him we have deputies!), overconfidence (changing the configuration without telling the FO), and hyperfixation (zoning in on one aspect of his flight envelope while neglecting another, e.g. Noticing altitude but neglecting v. Speed), and aggressive/labile behavior i.e. Short fuse (explosive anger at being waved off the approach, slamming down the flaps and trying to force the approach). Of course, there are a dozen other explanations for these, including simple fatigue, but some of the behaviors just seem to ring particularly true to my mind as somebody who could have been wired on uppers for the late shift, having worked with plenty of people in that very same state.

    A very good point, I assume "jitters" is translated and could be slang for stimulants, as the FO's comment makes a lot more sense in this context. Though then they probably wouldn't be discussing how tired they were, so it could be just feeling shaky from too much coffee. At the same time, the captain's behavior, attitude and decision making does seem quite off, like you described.

    The Russian distrust of “authorities” giving information seems to have been a big factor here.

    That is a really good point (!) and could explain - at least partially- why the pilot expressed anger and frustration with the ATC. The communication were anything but smooth. I wondered about that. It must be hard to fly at night - but it was a short flight - and I was kind of shocked when the FO said he was jittery. Plus the weather report kept changing and the fact that the warning about both pilots inputting was not heard seemed to doom the flight. Excellent but upsetting video, I myself was distracted by the little creepy music breaks. Like all have been saying, it seems like the plane would have made it without the confused pilots.

    An excellent presentation as usual. Definitely lots of human factors involved including from ATC. What sticks out the most to me was how inexperienced the crew was which seems to have caught up with them. Too many perfectly good airplanes get flown into the ground by airlines who feel it’s better to have lower paid pilots with less experience then an experienced crew worth paying more for. Meeting standards is not the same as having sufficient experience.

    The intial irritability of the Captain and the changing of settings seems like the symptoms of a sharp drop in blood sugar. When mine drops I start to be irritable, things that should not bother really start to make me angry. There can also be a brain fog that makes normal activities take a lot more concentrated thought to get right and I often rethink what I am doing even if what I was doing was right. Stress would increase the irritability and the brain fog. I have dealt with hypoglycemia most of my life and can usually catch the signs(which can include irritability, brain fog, sudden fatigue, muscle tremors, nausea, weakness) and know I need to get something to eat, but if the Captain had never had a blood sugar drop he would not know what was happening and it would continue to get worse.

One can not help to wonder if this was in a conventional control column aircraft like Boeing 737 that the crew would have been able to pull out of the dive. This also reminds me of the Air France-447 A330 crash. Where both pilots were confused about the position of the control sidestick, one of the pilots was pulling and the other was pushing. For me the lesson learned from this accident is that no matter what the environment throws at you, as a pilot you have to maintain a professional attitude in the cockpit at all times.

    ​@@MentourPilot With Boeing aircraft, contrary input on both yokes will result in either: A. The stronger or more consequent pilot winning, which might well be the frozen pilot, OR B. The aircraft averaging the input of both pilots (if they manage to "break" the yoke interlock in a FBW like 777 or 787), OR C. The captain's yoke winning (if they manage to "break" the yoke interlock in a non-FBW like 737, iirc). The Boeing 777 pilots of Air France flight 11 managed to break the interlock while both gave strong contrary input to their yokes. Consequently, the Triple Seven averaged their yoke inputs. Juan Browne had a video about this incident, only some months ago. So when you have the PF freeze and giving continuous detrimental input, even the Boeing concept might not save you. Interestingly, the AF11 incident also involved a startle factor during approach to their destination, PF pushed buttons erratically, and both didn't do the callouts. Didn't result in a crash, though, as they were at higher altitude AGL and in perfect VFR conditions. With AF447 though, the pilot in the left seat _did_ actually call out "My controls" when taking over, but the PF in the right seat didn't let go of his controls, but continued to give constant full nose up input when there were Stall warnings.

    Small correction: in case of dual input on sidesticks on Airbus, aircraft executes sum of commands, not average. Eg, if both pilots move their sidesticks 0.5 of full deflection to the same direction, then aircraft will bank/pitch at a rate of a single sidestick full deflection (but in any case not more than max rate of a single sidestick), not average of 0.5 of both inputs

    The problem there is that in itself can cause overload and for the pilots to prioritise the wrong thing. In the end most of these accidents come down to experience and professionalism, and keeping your head when in a high stress situation. Some airlines do a better job than others at training for and expecting that. There can also be a huge gap between a captain who knows the aircraft systems inside out and one who knows them well enough to do his job. Good example where that made a difference is QF32.
