All of my flight instructors that i had were cool with me. Heck, i even got blamed for 2 things that weren't even my fault when we were taxiing and taking off when he thought that I didn't retract the flaps when I did and had to return to the airport due to faulty on the flaps.

There is a term in gaming we have called being "tilted" where someone on your team can say something and even if you don't respond it can affect your mental state if it upsets you and your performance starts to suffer. It's very dangerous if this happens to a pilot

From old-school "Pinball"... Early games WERE capable of being effected by whacking and shaking the machine, thus nudging the balls in their course... AND for a while it was considered a part of the controls. Scores rocketed upward... Then between the abuses that players would unleash upon the machines AND the idea that not everyone believed in physically shaking a pinball machine to get higher scores and avoid losing balls/turns, the manufacturers started developing weighted switches in the lower mechanics to determine when the machine was being "cheated"... Some machines wouldn't allow much movement at all, and others could be calibrated to withstand some bumping and nudging. If the weights were knocked far enough off their center, the machine went into "Tilt" mode, flashing a sign on the scoreboard somewhere to that effect, and shutting down all traps and flippers to drop the active ball(s) and lose that player the turn. Since then, the term "Gone Tilt" or "Being Tilted" meaning a more or less complete shutdown of function has spread throughout society... I'm kind of glad it's persisted... In fact, in the very earliest machines, there were NO FLIPPERS, and tilting was THE ONLY control one had upon launching the ball. These were particularly primitive and all points were scored by bouncing the active ball(s) against the various pins equating to gained points for the turn of play...{thus the term "Pin-Ball"}... This is where controversy about the whole "Tilt" function got its roots, since the oldest school of players (back in the day, remember) could still remember that tilting the damn table was the ONLY way to play and score at all... They felt "cheated" by the companies installing those weights and switches... AND of course, as many old controversies go, they went round and round with the manufacturers over the appropriate "rules" of engagement where it came to pinball... Okay, sorry for the length, and I have NO IDEA where this connects to piloting and conflict resolution, either... I just hope you (whoever reads this f**kin' thing) enjoys the dubious history and maybe even gets a giggle out of it (or me for knowing this stuff)... At least, NOT all the history I know has to do with war, malice, violence, incest, torture, and the generally most morbid parts of our ancestry... I guess? ;o)

Already knew a bit about the origins of tilt, mostly because my dad used to have "pro pinball timeshock" on his pc and with spacebar you could "shake" the machine a little bit.

Even if you are student and an instructor starts going down the verbal just call sterile cockpit. I had to do it with an instructor at a major school cuz he decided to go down that road on final. He was told we will deal with this on the ground. Safer to have a disagreement on the ground than in the air. Even in a school don’t allow someone’s ego to push you into an unsafe situation.

The person (Calloway) doing the violence in the Fedex 705 case was a jump seater not a flight crew member. He was scheduled to be the engineer (or was it 1st officer) on that flight. There were 4 people on board. The normal 3 crew and the one jump seater. Calloway is currently serving 2 consecutive life sentances in federal prison without parole.

@mixedbytc

2 жыл бұрын

Calloway was facing dismissal for lying about flight hours and was most certainly NOT scheduled to crew to the flight. He was simply a non-revenue passenger, called "deadheads" when they're employees of the carrier. His acts of violence were a premeditated attempt at murder-suicide and presumably insurance fraud to benefit his family. The latter allegation was never pursued in court, but his financial records are quite damning.

@Cynsham

Жыл бұрын

He was actually deadheading the flight and was the one sitting on the jump seat, since Fedex offered that as a benefit to their employees. Calloway was a Fedex Pilot at the time, and they speculate that he did this due to the fact that he had just been recently divorced, was having financial troubles, and because he had lied about and overinflated his previous flying experience in the Navy it was very likely that he was going to be fired.

That was a crazy situation! The crew did a great job of mitigating the situation. If I remember properly none of these pilots fly anymore. If I am wrong, please let me know.

I recall a check flight off JQF where a instructor was giving a check ride to a already light twin-qualified pilot in the left seat. The flight was for insurance rental clearance - not training. It was a short flight with the usual maneuvers and a few landings. All was well until they were returning. At 10k altitude, the left engine quit. The two pilots proceeded to argue among themselves as to what to do and who had command. During the 15 minute argument, they passed directly over at least THREE very suitable airports that they could have diverted to. The check instructor didn't want to land where he thought it would be a difficult maintenance issue off home-field. Then the right engine quit and they still argued - all the way down to a total loss of the aircraft and the death of the prospective renter. The young instructor was left blinded and partially disabled. The cause? Fuel exhaustion. I had flown with that instructor once before. Once had been enough for me but once was too much for the dead pilot.

"keep it in the center line you muathefokker" lol XD XD

I have zero interest in ever being a pilot but CRM is part of my daily working life in HST/ HRT & other HCE's and as a FF it was VERY interesting to see your take on this within the aviation industry. Very much appreciated your take on this subject specific to a flightdeck.

Another Great video! Thanks Mentour ! When it comes to personal relations, it is not your duty to change your colleague's behavior if he/she doesn't understand in straight feedback once. People are different and some get along better than others. It is a fact of life and holds true in all professions. A friend of mine flying in the MENA region had similar issue on his flight to Georgia. The Captain he flew with that day had few personal and professional issues with him which raised an argument in the cockpit leading him to take a few disruptive actions. As you mentioned the ways to deal with the situations and conflicts that arise "bite your tongue and wait till on ground" seems the best option here. Also DFDR event marker could be used to refer back incase.( just how my friend handled it). If gets out of hand take controls and report. Sounds easy but not at FL340. Nothing to worry if you have yours facts straight before jumping onto such 'assholes' as you called them..xD No point in Arguing with such people. Thanks to the birth of CRM but why hasn't it become mandatory for all the crew members(referring to pilots who have trained before the CRM era) around the globe in this type of profession?

I don't think it would work much. The other person in the cockpit might be a woman - easy to put out of combat - or a smaller person, or the pilot who wants to commit suicide can have with him a small knife or anything that he can use as a weapon, hit by surprise the First Officer during the flight, close the door etc. The problem is that if the pilot wants to die and kill the entire plane, he can always do it IF the cabin can be locked, and with ease. The reason why the Germanwings pilot managed to destroy the plane is not that he was left alone in the cockpit, but that he could lock himself in. The onlyway to avoid this is to test pilots for depression and other mental illnesses, I'm afraid.

Very interesting topic - I know it's a long time ago now, but the BEA Trident disaster was another great example of conflict and tension in the cockpit - sadly no CVR so we'll never know exactly what was going on, but it's thought that the junior officers felt unable to speak up about the leading edge flaps being retracted, because of the overbearing and domineering personality of the captain.

You are very professional and I appreciate that. It’s a lesson for anybody in any profession. I would not fly on certain airlines in certain countries for CRM reasons.

Good example was the crash of Alitalia 404. F/O called for a go around, and was largely ignored by the captain. Airplane crashed into terrain on final killing, I believe all, onboard.

that reminds me of a question I got in my cadet interview, it was about doing an approach and reaching down to minimums and the captain says the runway is in sight and you don't see the runway what are you going to do. I've never thought of this and I simply answered that I will not allow him to kill everybody in the plane.

The rail industry is very similar in this regard. Of course, it's also possible to stop the train where it is and call police (that's why the conductor has an emergency brake lever) but nonetheless the same principles apply.

That's why a proper, professional psychological and medical assessment of the pilots as well as control of what they ingest (whether alcohol or other substances) must be always present.

Mentour Pilot, to help people really get some insight into CRM, could you do a video on the Tenerife disaster of years ago, because this accident was a real turning point to develop CRM. It was such a defining moment in aviation history. Love your channel, great information as always.

Sometimes verbal or even physical intimidation can badly influence a junior pilot's effectiveness, leading to carelessness that eventually becomes fatal. e.g. Northwest Airlink Flight 5719 Or sometimes distrust and disagreements over critical flight decisions delay the realisation of impending disaster. e.g. Alitalia Flight 404.
