What happened to Turkish Airlines flight 1951?!

Out of curiosity, what does it take, in an emergency, for someone like yourself to fly a different aircraft? In like a Zombie apocalypse situation, would you be able to get in, say an A330 or a 747 to fly an emergency evacuation mission, even just as the guy monitoring the radios?

Or like in 2012, where the guy who's just learning to fly a single prop plane ends up helping to fly an An-225. Would that guy be better than an ordinary person who has never flown an aircraft before?

Sir I have a doubt when the captain side radio altimeter fails isn't there a choice of selecting the First officer Radio altimeter, consquently the control signal from the respective computer will altered Fasciliting the first officer to land the plane, Because in this case the captain was officer monitoring kindly forgive my ignorance if I am wrong

Kindly watch the u tube "A crash which made boeing change their system Mayday disasters" The same accident has been described with a FAA investigation report

The captain was task saturated and behind the airplane while first officer didn't have enough experience to troubleshoot and support pilot wasn't in a position to question either of them. They made mistakes however it isn't fair to them to judge them harshly. The approach was too close (should have been aborted by captain), checklists weren't done by 1000 (captain was behind the plane) yet despite all these problems the plane wouldn't have crashed had there not been RA fault. Pilots engaged dual approach and it autodisconnected so they went back to autopilot B which didn't have a problem yet the autothrottle wasn't using B side RA, if it was the plane wouldn't have crashed even with unstable approach.

Very very sad accident, Pilots are guilty as usual ( because they are dead), Boeing is clean as an angel, right?

oh great, im flying turkish airlines in a few weeks 😮

Unusually, music was a bit intrusive. Otherwise excellent as always.

What irks me a lot is the warning system calling out "pull up" close to a stall or stick shaker event, when that is quite the opposite of what should be done, as pulling up would further induce a stall. "Throttle up" and maybe even "Nose down" would make more sense to me.

When it comes to aircraft, all intermittent errors must be treated as permanent errors, requiring full parts change!

yet another case of pilots not understanding their systems, shame this darwhinian stuff involves public casualties

When things get weird, can’t the pilot just turn off everything auto, and fly on in manually.

If going to ignore go around rule, then other stuff might be ignored

Amazingly complex machines that must work right 99.999% of time

Hey mentor pilot, I gotta give you props on going out of your way to make sure you could pronounce these names correctly. You don’t see that a lot on social media

I’ve been watching your videos for a long time. This is the first time I’ve heard the “landing gear horn..” man I do not like that sound at all 🤮

Gosh, the errors and indications seem to subtle in this one. I guess the whole not being stabilized at 1000ft was the big one. But overall, no clear and obvious big mistakes.

I guess it's safe to say the thruster wasn't the only thing spending too much time in the retard position.

I'm not a pilot. But I think every pilot should watch your videos

Thank You Mentour Pilot, your videos are always FANTASTIC.

Something that always puzzles me: why do we have all these crazy alarms and bells in 2024, instead of just an natural sounding voice that speaks English warnings. For example, instead of a crazy buzzing, just have the voice say: "landing gear not down" or "problem with landing gear". Also, why don't we have touch screen computers with checklists programmed in. Finding a checklist in a book is so 1920's.

I just finished watching your video after watching the same flight but on the mayday channel, dude this guy gets into the deepest details better than any other tv shows❤

I much prefer this format where you lay out where this is going to end up. In recent videos you have become trrrorizing.

How can anyone work when hearing those warning noises?

I remember this accident quite clearly. Obviously it was in the news a lot. But mostly because of the video of the tractor near the crash site, because the ground was too soft and wet for other vehicles. That shot got repeated every time it was discussed in the news. People sitting, completely in shock, on a cart behind a tractor. I still remember how shocked we all were and how sad it was.
A memorial was build, it has a stone that says: Your grief is our grief, in Dutch, Turkish, and English. Nine trees were planted, one for each victim.

Thanx

Heartbreaking…

Leave out the irritating needless music please

Layman question: what does "heavy" mean?

These are all boeing issues and they always blame the pilots

A radar altimeter that only works when it wants to...

Thanks!

This spooling of jet react. engine, they know how to use the same thrust in reverse in a matter of 2 seconds (time of opening of the reflector doors) why can't we let the engines produce the same thrust but in a neutral position so that, if need be, a command to TOGA gets the thrust needed quick?

They obviously should have named it "Nepotism Airlines"

When MP talks about "we pilots," he's talking about people like himself and me. We pilots don't look down on you non-pilots, but it's our club, and you ain't in it.

Howdy to anyone who recognizes me, esp from JFK. See you in the azure, not in the Azores!

(Special hi to my sweet little flight attendants, you know who you are)

I saw it when I drove past it on the highway 21 minutes after it happened

Thank you for sharing this story.

"Transmitter" not "sender". Danger of modifying swedish words to English, easily done

Never go “Full Retard”

Oj oj så ledsamt...bakgrundsmusik som gör det alltför mödosamt att lyssna. Men tack för alla de tidigare! De går ju att se om 🤗 .

In the Turkish Air Force, pilot training is carried out under very strict discipline and you cannot challenge the authority of the senior pilots. This strict discipline and hierarchy continues in the same way when you switch to civilian airlines. This accident, which should not have happened, happened because two pilots with military background were assigned to the same flight. Turkish Airlines should learn from this.

All these explanation shows: The planes are by FAR to complex. All these systems and procedures makes it not easier, they cause more errors!

Im from the Netherlands and remeber when this was on the news all week.

It highlights the stupidity of people that sports stars and music stars get paid more than the pilots who have to learn and apply so many different things.

Turkish Airlines will never be an airline I will fly.

Once more, hitech is wonderful until it isn't. How did pilots manage before the era of multiple safety systems with their added complexity (and thus higher risk of failure), often with contradictory and spurious information. Is it possible that, in the understandable, desire to increase safety, that more becomes less? Oh, and let's not forget the holy grail of check lists.

Great work.

It is baffling how such an experienced captain and safety officer could allow a well known but rather insignificant problem with a non-critical flight instrument to lead them into a catastrophic series of errors that crashed their plane short of the runway. Yes, mistakes happen but the decisions that were made that facilitated this disastrous sequence do not make any sense for pilots who should have been experienced enough to know how their flight systems would behave given the faulty radio altimeter. There was simply too little communication in the cockpit, no one was telling anyone else what they were doing or why and no discussions were had about the potential problems they would face once they reached their destination. They also never took in any weather information at their destination which would have alerted them to the crosswind that caused them to deviate from their intended flight path. And this all proved fatal. I hope Turkish Airways have improved their CRM training in the wake of this accident because events like this just shouldn't happen.

I think of how I am constantly glancing down at my speedometer when driving and wonder, 1. if I were a pilot would I glance down at my PFD just as often? And 2. How could a pilot not be constantly glancing at their PFD??
