Hey Stig. I can give you some of my 787 Captain seat perspective of a possible/probable example of what happened with that inadvertent pilot seat electric forward movement. First off, human startle factor is a real thing for an event like this, and the reality of not reacting quick enough compared to analyzing it after the fact. It is very likely this was a meal tray contact issue. The flight attendant could have just given the pilots their meal trays, and in a Boeing as you know, they go on our laps. The PF (pilot flying) will only bring his/her seat back a couple of clicks so as to not be unsafely too far aft of the rudder pedals/control column. Now visualize that the hard plastic meal tray forward edge is only an inch or less away from the control column stand, and tucked close to the Skipper’s abdomen on the aft edge. The flight attendant is standing behind, chatting for a few minutes, elbow leans on the button cover, which is displaced slightly open because of the defective rocker switch. The seat starts moving forward, everything happens very fast now…. The hard meal tray is getting squeezed between the vertical control column and the belt line of the pilot. The autopilot is pulling back hard to maintain the aircraft’s pitch. Suddenly, and I suspect within only a couple of seconds before the pilots understand what is happening, the Autopilot reaches its control column force limit and disconnects. Now the bird will pitch down very aggressively because of the nose up trim that the autopilot was inputting. What happened next was horrible. Many in the cabin hit the ceiling (unfortunately too many did not have their seatbelts on while seated), and in the cockpit I’m sure the food went airborne and the standing flight attendant hit the cockpit ceiling. A very bad day for all involved. We have a specific memo now about this incident and more awareness of keeping an eye out for a defective rocker switch, and to not let anyone ever lean on a seat back. Hopefully this will never happen again. The final report will confirm what happened that day of course. In a perfect world, the pilot would have sensed this happening immediately and stopped the seat movement before autopilot disconnect. But as I said, the startle factor has to be applied. Maybe a second or two longer and the manual seat intervention would have happened and stopped the movement, then an Air Safety Report filed by the Captain, and a preventative lesson learned. Btw, a similar thing happened on an Airbus years back. An A330 had a violent pitch down like this Boeing incident, when the left armrest made contact with an SLR camera which then made contact with the left side stick controller while the seat was moved electrically forward after getting back into the seat. MentourPilot made a good video about it if interested. I’m sure his channel will create a video about the LATAM event also within a year.

This is absolutely fantastic breakdown Mike, I really appreciate you doing this, especially from experience that you have. Everything you describe could and might have been the case. The startle factor is real and I do agree with you on that. This is what we call the Swiss cheese effect, the holes perfectly aligned, and the chain of events occurred. Whether the seat was not moved back all the way the food tray was in a very particular position, there’s so many factors here that basically could’ve happened. My only observation is from the mechanical functionality of the chair itself. And that was the primary purpose. I wanted to point out the cut out switch.

that is a Dual Ghia. It's a magnificent piece of hand crafted italian american transatlantic style car. People like Dean Martin had those and these were the brainchild of the Firearrow series of prototypes made by Chrysler. It was bodied by Ghia in Italy, hand made. I think only a few hundreds were made: power came from a Hemi Chrysler if not mistaken. The cars you see here are top top quality concours d'elegance material: that P1 GTR bears the iconic livery of the Gulf/Davidoff sponsored F1 long tail of 1997. Cool to see cargo never disappointing.

For what it’s worth, pilots can cross their legs with their seats slid further back.

@@chrisnicholls8636 and the brake/disc material. some materials get hot and handle it well as braking performance doesn't degrade as badly as other materials when they get hot. Some cool naturally quicker also. Take three car examples : Disc. Ventilated Disc. Carbon disc. if you look at the material, it will be optimised for a specific brake friction pad material. drive a standard car with foot lightly resting on brake pedal, as though controlling speed down a very long hill (without engine braking).. at the bottom of the hill, you'll be pressing the pedal a lot harder to achieve stopping power than you would be pressing at the top of the hill. Brake fade and materials are tightly correlated. Also, a airplane driver :P really doesn't want or need to hit the brakes too hard. whiplash would be far too easy. and they have plenty of space. i thik they teach flyers to make a small action and wait for response before taking further action. some responses can take a lot more time than the brains want to wait for (albeit milliseconds). This phenomen actually makes pilots of bigger aeroplanes be mentally 'ahead' of the air vehicle far more readily. Judging braking distance is a breeze. They still need AutoBrake tho.. like cars still need ABS.

Like, there probably isn't that much debris in the oil and it probably takes months for it to build up to where it needs servicing (at a guess), but it's still something you have to consider... you can't just hope for the best and assume it will stay clean forever

Thank you so much for another enjoyable, fun, informative adventure! The notification for your video came out minutes before Airline Videos Live went live. I saved your video for my quiet time just before bed. Keep bringing us the planes - and those cool cars - ‘cause I sure love ‘em. Be safe out there.

I know this is more an aviation channel, but for reference that car is a Lanzante Motorsport McLaren P1 GTR-18. It's essentially a modified McLaren P1 to have more downforce and a higher displacement engine giving it 1,000 horsepower. This one was featured in Road & Track and goes for around $2.5 million dollars.

Love your videos! And that Porsche was a backdate car build that CSF radiators did around 2 years ago. It’s been around in some car shows here and there. That car sounds amazing in person.

That tug ride along was amazing! What a beautiful, skilled push back and perspective us normies don't get to appreciate. Wow - thank you!

WOW, what an adventure to get that broken screen ha? Awww, thank you for getting a close up of that beacon while flashing. Your so kind! 🥰Yeah, some stories in aviation incidents don't make sense, I agree. I don't understand why that one guy did a gear up landing, if he couldn't get hydraulics to put the gear down, why didn't he pull the manual spring loaded gear release red levers? But I like them fancy pilot chairs! Beautiful cars as always too. The APU start was interesting, when you flipped that switch, there was kind of an aggressive engagement, cool. The tug driver drives better then people drive cars today! Look at those magnificent engines spool up. Seeing you surprised at the new oil cap design on the A321 made me smile so much, I am happy along with you Stig! Got the hand sanitizer out of a weird place for it to be in the first place, Stig for the win! I appreciate a Stig taxy any day. Time to replace the carbon ceramic breaks yessir! Thank you Stig, you brighten my day buddy. ❤
