Pilots Make WORST Mistake Possible!

Sounds like a couple of morons

I remember this one - not all that long ago - a very unusual accident scenario.
While it's easy in hindsight to enumerate all the errors they committed, what makes it ususual is the multiple indications before and throughout the flight that the captain had a different flight in his head than the one they were executing, and thought they would be flying for much longer, with plenty of time to get set up. Short flights are more challenging than long ones, because you have the same number of tasks to perform in much less time, and flying into Teterboro is always high stress, so you'd think he would take the time before departure to get his "A" game ready, because they're going to be expecting it there - that is, if he even understood that's where he was going. His actions indicate he tought he was flying up to Albany or somewhere much further and more laid back. Obviously by the time he realized what they were into too many balls had been dropped to make anything salvagable out of it, and the only reasonable course of action would have been to inform ATC they're going missed and spend some time in a hold getting set up before returning.

O read the report . Idiots

I would LOVE to hear an interview with the passengers and what it was that tipped them off to drive. I have a feeling it was the foul mouth pilot. Wonder if he was unprofessional in other ways.

As sad as it is, if people have THIS much struggle with training, they just shouldnt be flying. Im in flight training now, and you can genuinely tell when people are struggling and will continue to struggle all the way through. At a certain point it just becomes unsafe

Always trust your gut. Those passengers came so close to dying

I am relieved to face the truth about my wish to take flying lessons. Listening to you brought me to the realization that I don't have what it would require. I'm at peace with it now. Thank you.

Excellent debrief

VERY informative video.

I'm suspecting a drug user.....

Ego and self awareness seldom go hand in hand..

You mean to tell me the 1st officer already crashed 2 time and they allowed him in another aircraft? Bad desition!

It's only 2 hours from Philly to Teterboro in a car doing 55. What was the guy smoking?

Atleast the pilot flying wanted to give up the comand so many times but the pilot monitoring was just a pain the ass.

On my third flying lesson, my instructor told me to land the plane, even though I never had the controls in my hand prior to this. So I lined up the plane and descended at an angle too obtuse and too fast . Waiting for further instruction and hearing none, I looked at my flight instructor only to find him paralyzed with fear, gripping the edge of the control panel. I landed the plane with a bang-I think I bent the landing gear. I decided then that flying was not for me.

None of these bozos should have pilots!

That's the normal rate for f-words if you are from New England.

At least we don’t have to worry about these numbskulls endangering the lives of others in the future and thank goodness the passengers had the commonsense to stay on the ground.

As a non pilot .. I’ll swallow my pride and admit I’d probably be that copilot.. which is why I choose not to flight .. it’s the numbers , sequences etc etc that would jam my mind .. physically I could fly the plane by feel etc .. btw I will say the copilot attempted 4 or 5 different times to hand the controls back before the captain finally took over after it was too late .. unfortunately .. rest well fellows .

Hoover , “ the worst mistake a pilot can make is to assume your a better pilot than you really are . “ Hoover , this is exactly why I like your channel and briefings so much , your observations apply to almost every area of life ! 👍👏

boggles the mind that any company would ever hire them as pilots, they both had enough red flags prior to this flight they should have been kicked out. sad.

In your animation the aircraft appears to be no longer in the turn when it stalls. Am I missing something?

WIND WEATHER WEIGHT...VERY IMPORTANT IM LEARNING HOOVER

I remember that day because it was extremely windy.

Your videos are so educational….you are saving lives, let’s hope people that need it are watching.

Captain was F’en suicidal..😏

Lloyd Chistmas wants to know if they had shag carpet glued to the Lear? 😮

Tossers

My lord so basically these pilots shouldn’t have ever obtained their license

Cracker Jack pilots

They sound like they were on something

Watched this for the second time and had to think what was this company thinking to hire people that already had bad evaluations. All I could think when watching this was hit the gas and regroup. I used to take lessons out of Republic on Long Island and I know there were plenty of places to land in the area.

All the holes in the swiss cheese definitely lined up, sad.

If you think these pilots are that bad, wait until DEI takes hold!

I wonder how that landing went that made the two pax choose to drive instead...

Once again, men with monster egos and dismissive of rules and procedures, not to mention a lack of respect for ATCs.

Jeepers! Fancy having that little self awareness?? Zero self preservation, surely his brain (if he had 1?) was screaming at him "Don't do it, Don't fly!!"

This one is hard to take because for me, these guys should have never been paired together.

I fly a lot as a passenger but these debriefs make me question EVERYTHING I thought I knew about airline safety...We actually put our lives in the hands of people we know absolutely nothing about and choose to assume they're qualified to get us up from point A to point B safely and without incidence ...🤦‍♀️

Did. Not. Know. How. To. Start. The. Engines….get outta my airplane

Holee crap, this was in complete VMC, middle of the day, and they did this? This had to be a freak pair up of dumb and dumber.

Steve-O ?

If this situation wasn't so tragic, it would be almost comical. Such a shame.

2014 Delta flight from Salt Lake to Burbank. The new Pilot came a few feet from burying the right wing into the runway on landing. You don’t know pucker factor til you see how fast that asphalt is zipping by compared to a wing about to smash into it. After landing she walked through the cabin toward the rear lavatories. Super cute blonde girl. Maybe 25. Something tells me she didn’t get hired based on meritocracy. Or airmanship. Those aluminum tubes get less and less appealing every year.

What a couple of bozos.

An experienced pilot having simultaneous issues - skipping checklists, disorientation with location, flight time, tower instructions -and ignoring multiple requests by his CP to relinquish control makes me wonder if he was impaired. Toxicology report?

yup, i was making good progress but decided that it was more responsibility than i wanted to deal with

These guys weren't pilots. They were not competent to fly anything other than paper planes.

Why don't airports have scales like truck stops that can weigh the plane before takes off? Fuel up, load passengers and bags, and then taxi onto the scales. Wait a few seconds to confirm your weight, compare it to the aircraft weight limits, then make a Go/No Go decision. Maybe I should invent a built-in scale system for airports.
