How YOU can land a passenger aircraft! 12 steps

To find the right HEADSET for YOU, check out BOSE Aviation 👉🏻 boseaviation-emea.aero/headsets
What if a Passenger was the ONLY one left to land the plane? Could a passenger theoretically do it, without ANY previous knowledge or training?
In todays Special video, I will go through the required steps that will have to be taken in the cockpit in order to set the aircraft up for a safe auto-land. There will be around 20 different individual steps that needs to be taken and none of them can be omitted or done in the wrong order. This all depends on the passenger getting into contact with Air Traffic Control and being reasonably close to a suitable runway.

    As a private pilot I often think if a passenger faces such a situation in a commercial flight is to focus and remain calm. Your attitude determines your altitude it’s said. Sitting in the seat remember the aircraft is still flying, wings level, and you have fuel. Aviate. Navigate. Communicate usually, but get communicating first in this scenario. 121.5 are your guardian angels.

But what they cannot re create or as far as I know they cannot recreate the feel of loss of altitude, difference in subtle pressure changes. What I'm saying is that Piolets should be trained to also rely on their senses, the sound of the engine, the real feel of the stick, pressure senses and feel the loss or gain of altitude and to trust those senses when their instruments are giving them wrong information.

    ​@@radicalmoderate2730Actually, the feeling of loosing altitude is an illusion to. There is a video on this channel where pilots did not trust the computer of the airbus that told them they had a positive pitch because they felt like they had a negative pitch. This lead to them stalling over and over again and crashing the aircraft with no survivors. This i just one of the many illusions yoh can experience. The human body is just not equipped for flying. The feeling of "loss of altitude" feels the same as leveling off after a climb, so it isn't even an umabigious feeling. Trusting your body over instruments in a commercial aircraft is foolish in every situation you're not absolutely certain instrumentatipn is wrong.

    I’m a private pilot and aircraft owner so I come in to the scenario with a good understanding of the dynamics of flight. A few years back I had the unique opportunity to fly a major airline’s flight sim for an hour. I had an instructor pilot in the cockpit with me (not on the radio) to provide constant guidance. I found it remarkably easy to land the jet. I was feeling pretty sassy, and then he said let’s try it without auto throttles and throw in some weather. I was humbled in a hurry and found myself behind the aircraft once I had to worry about power adjustments and fighting with crosswinds. It was still great fun, and I logged the one hour of jet time. 😉

    That ADIRU alarm bell is also the alarm bell letting you know that the main battery is discharging. Good thing you had the handle for the elevator control wheel stowed, them things are a shin buster! Also, upon landing, why was the APU not started? Also, the rudder is only effective at certain air speeds on the ground, below that speed, the rudder is useless and the nose steering wheel is what needs to be used. I am not a pilot, I do maintenance on these things. Personally I would sit in the left hand seat to make use of the nose wheel steering handle.

    I love how reassuring you are. I was in a small plane(10 seats ) to San Salvador Bahamas (1980) as a teen. My brother was a copilot. Charter flight They were visual flight. But I could see that they could not. We hit a major unexpected storm over the Bermuda Triangle 🙄 There was no visibility and tons of turbulence. I had the Barf bag. Both my brother and the pilot were dripping with sweat and there was a crack extending my window upward shifting and it started leaking water. We got out of that mess in about 15 minutes. Of HELL. As a result I literally cancelled my honeymoon to Bermuda and if I can’t drive there, I don’t go. Oh. My brother quit flying after that too. Although I have not yet flown I think I can because of the reassurance you provide. Improvements in technology. Training. Regulations. ❤. I am planning a flight now. BUT. THAT PILOT BETTER HE IN GOOD HEALTH because I can barely work a smart phone 🤣🥰

    I read long ago on flight sim forum.. Every flightsimmers dream is for the stewardess to come on the speakers "ladies and gentlemen, we are looking for any passengers who may be aboard with some flight experience or knowledge on flying this type of aircraft, the flight crew have taken ill." And you better believe it, they're taking it in manual all the way, and what was that, one of the gear lights was stuck on red, just need to take it around for 1 more try... There's a few videos of bedroom flight simmers landing these proper simulators on first go, after thousands of goes on there PC, and every switch, setting and so forth being simulated for a decade now, minus the G forces, it's no wonder. Seriously thought though, if a simmer did take their opportunity and insist on flying it manually, I'm not sure if they would be thanked for landing it safely, or punished for "wreckless endangerment" etc for not taking cat3 option as instructed.

The AP will do it better, and just needs to be managed effectively. 90% of the work is contacting ATC, after that it would be relatively straightforward, especially if you can supress panic and if the plane is not fuel exhausted, as everything else can be troubleshooted and walked through as slowly as fuel allows. ATC would almost certainly direct you to the longest nearby runway to minimise any issue with speedbrakes or flap configuration. As long as you put the gear down (something the tower will be able to check visually before you land) and can put the plane on an instrument approach, most everything else is window dressing.

    As much as I enjoy watching these Mentour Pilot videos (and the full extent of my flying experience is playing Microsoft Flight Simulator) I'd have preferred to see Mentour Pilot acting as the ATC and an authentic nonpilot accepting his instructions in the cockpit. Now *that* would have been exciting!

A few do speak plainly and carefully, but it seems to me that most should slow down and enunciate more clearly!

    Very important indeed. Honestly Mentour should've done "in action" version of this video where he actually has an ATC telling him what to do, then he stops and edits the video showcasing the exact instructions, carries them out and constantly responds to ATC. No matter - video is probably one of the best for this "topic" but we as passerby would have much more fun and stress (?) watching situation unfold.

    So effective that the operating crews at nuke plants have been use "three part" communications at all times for a few decades. That and a lot of other "event free" tools are in use like independent and/or concurrent verification of all actions taken. (One person reads the procedure and describes what his next action is, pointing to the component to be operated, and a second person verifies that the action is correct prior to the manipulation.) Plant control room crews have gone for long periods without even minor mis-operations, like one recently went SEVEN YEARS.

    Thanks for this great presentation! Another pilot instructor and myself took a 5 hr student pilot , put that individual in the right seat of a Boeing 777 simulator at the Boeing training center. (don't tell) We talked the young pilot into a good landing using zero flight management systems, all manual by hand, into Boeing Field, starting from the outer marker. Point being, these new aircraft are easy to fly despite all the intimidating displays within the flight deck. All centerline directional turns were rudder only to avoid "chasing" with aileron corrections. Pitch and throttle to control airspeed. A good level off 50 ft over the landing zone, throttle back and the aircraft just basically gently touched down. It was a joyous moment. Just saying.
