What if a Pilot gets SICK?!
What happens if a Pilot starts to feel sick just before he/she is about to board the flight? What happens if the pilot get sick in flight or loses the medical license permanently?
In todays episode I will be discuss all of those things since i, appropriately, have the flu and could not come up with any other thing to talk about.
If you are a pilot, make sure you sign up for a "loss of license" insurance immediately if you havent already, you never know when disaster strikes.

What happens when a pilot falls ill was well demonstrated in the groundbreaking documentary film, "Airplane!"

Comment #1: I have a friend whose father was a commercial pilot. Just a few months before his retirement he was diagnosed colon cancer and had to stop flying. That was a HUGE disappointment for him, since he was looking forward to his "goodbye flight," where we was to chose the route and crew. His treatment is being paid by his insurance. Comment #2: Back in the 1970s an uncle of mine devised a "loss of licence" insurance for an insurance company, based on statistics available at that time. The problem was that just as soon as the insurance became available, many pilots who were barely passing their physicals began to fail them. Needless to say is was bad for him.
I'm sorry you are ill but your videos remain excellent. You are among the best KZread presenters I've seen. I thoroughly enjoy your videos and I'm not a pilot! Thank you for all you do for so many. May you continue for as long as you wish and do so in the best of health. An appreciative subscriber in North Idaho, USA.
Get well soon man. You are one of the biggest troopers I know.
Get well soon! Great video, as always.
I have no pilot experience, and in all likelihood will never become one but man, I'm addicted to your videos. Love your content man, keep em coming. Take good care of yourself and be safe out there. Much love from Texas!
Take care, Petter. Have a good rest.
Get well soon Petter. The Mentour community appreciate your work.
Get well soon. Thank you for putting up a video even when ur not well. Rest up, and take care 👍🏼
awwwwww you are even treating us with great knowledge and information when you are sick! You are, as you say, "absolutely fantastic!!"
That overhead panel bell to subscribe was so awesome and new!! Loved it
Got to respect this dedication 👏🏻
Get well soon my man
Wishing you a swift and complete recovery! There's a Kennedy Steve video about a pilot who developed a sudden digestive upset just before takeoff... the plane had to return to the gate for immediate medical attention (and a clean pair of trousers).
I hope you get well soon, I love your videos
Nice choice of the INOP shirt while you're ill!
Omg! Get better soon! You look fantastic even still. Excellent video.
I hope you have an absolutely fast recovery!
Get well soon Captain!👍
Wish you a speedy recovery. Get well soon.
1 minute in, really exited! Ahah, thanks for the uploades Captain!
I certainly hope you get well surprisingly fast! I think I speak for all saying that you are a real trooper for doing a video for us while you are sick. And don't worry, we won't tell your airline that this is just an elaborate ruse to get some extra time off... One other note, almost every person wants to carry on even if they feel a little unwell. Even companies can be less than understanding and push people to suck it up and do their job. As we are all even more aware with the Coronavirus, human contact is the surest way to spread disease. If you decide to fly your assigned flight you are likely to spread whatever ailment you have to your other crew members, airport workers and other pilots preparing their flight plans or doing other paperwork while you are in the same spot. If an airline already is spread a little thin for stand by crews every other crewmember or colleague you meet will be at danger of getting sick. Now let's talk about a shortage of pilots and crews! Even if you aren't flying, and you feel you are coming down with something, the issue at hand isn't just you, but how many you've taken down with you. Anyway, Petter, get well soon! And as always, thanks for all you do. You are the best!
Sending you Healing Energy..... we love your videos. Get well soon.
Feel better soon. Thanks.
Get well soon Peter. Greetings from Portugal.
Hello Commander! Hello Patxi! I’m back for 3rd Time. I went to a Pulmonary Doctor today. He said He doesn’t think I have Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis. We did some tests & inhaler medication. He gave me some hope. CT scan on my lungs is next. I’m getting better. Thnx A lot for your Help keeping my spirits up. I’m slowly improving. Being a Professional Traveler carries tremendous responsibility to be in good health. This is one of your Best Episodes. The World is a difficult place to travel through. You Are showing people what it is like to be ill is one of Best things you have done. Nobody wants to be on a plane Being flown by a Pilot who is really sick. Unique Patxi Pose. The Happiest Dog Ever! Nice. Thnx, Please Stay Clear of the Coronavirus. CJ

Get better! Respects on finding stamina to release the video.
Wish I was near Berlin, It would be awesome to meet you and talk a little aviation stuff! If you ever do anything like that in the US let us know!
Get well Boss!
Get well soon fella
Hope you're feeling better soon.
As always, your content is engaging and informative and your commitment to the piloting industry and education is outstanding.. How many aircrew, when feeling sick enough to call off from work would use that time to speak candidly and informatively on the subject? In viewing this video after-the-fact of the Berlin Pilot Expo, it's great to see that you got your "sea legs" back in time for participation.

Very informative.
We are lucky here in Denmark to get Fully paid even though we are sick
Good animations. You've developed a lot.
Would love to hear your blow by blow of the protocol and steps poor BA 5390 FO Alastair Atchison heroically and mindbogglingly had to go through to get on the ground safely while his captain was almost completely pinned to the outside of the plane! I so admire the way you explain complicated info so that all of us understand, and speaking of horrific "what if the pilot"...lord have mercy!
Great video, thank you for the awesome content. I'm currently saving the last bits for my flight training and just signed the contract from my school to start this summer. And I was wondering what are the best way to prepare for flight school, I've already started to read the Air Pilots Manual series but are just wondering what you would have done the prepare yourself for flight training. Once again awesome video! :-)
OMG HES GOT CHARONA. Jk Love your vids keep it up! Get well soon ;D (btw your dog is soooo cute!)

"Just a short video since I'm sick guys", Mentour Pilot has to define what short means, this seams like an average length video but thankyou anyway for uploading (: Take it easy and rest well!

Get better soon. If too many pilots are sick at the same time the airline is screwed.
Your medical situations underscore the insurance coverage needs for everyone. You could check in with Juan Browne also.
Feel Better.
There's a great insurance product for ATP's specifically for loss of license. It's through Lloyd's of London. Every ATP should have it considering how easy it is to lose your class 1.
Get well soon! Hope you can get back up in the sky 😀🤢
Respiratory tract infections enter the body mainly through the nose. When a person touches a contaminated surface, he moves it to his nose by touching it, often unnoticed. When you clean hands, clean nose also.
It would be so sad losing licence because of sickness but sometimes we may face the problems which are hard to deal with. I hope that every pilot can keep their license until their retirement.
get better mate!!!!
