@Nicolas IIRC there was an Air China 747 that had a nose dive just off the California coast back in the 80s (?). I think that one might have briefly been supersonic. Either way it did lose some body panels.
@Nicolas cheddar got it wrong. For an airplane the only important speed is airspeed which is the speed of the airplane relative to the air surrounding it. Groundspeed is the speed of the aircraft as measured by an observer on the ground. It was this one that "broke" the theoretical speed of sound. It doesn't really mean anything. Jet stream is an air mass from west to east and does indeed speed the journey up. However the airspeed remains subsonic because the whole air around the aircraft is moving in the same direction. The sound barrier itself is only broken when you reach an airspeed (meaning relative to the air around you) higher that said number (depending on altitude and temperature). I don't know if that made sense. Feel free to ask, maybe someone explains it better than me or you can read the Wikipedia on airspeed. There are IAS, TAS and CAS.
One correction: The Virgin 787 did NOT break the sound barrier. Its airspeed did not change. It did not move faster in relation to the air, which is what the speed of sound is based on - the sound barrier does not care how fast you are across the ground. The 787's airspeed would have only been around Mach 0.85-0.90.
The B787’s ✈️✈️✈️ 801MPH speed was only the ground speed, but as far as the plane was concerned it was flying at its normal air speed and chilling 😴😴😴 on the way to its destination. 😎😎😎
@@cookieflavoredoreo4685 The speed of sound is a function of temperature Vs = 331 * (T/273.13)^0.5 gives an approximation of the speed of sound in air in meters per second (T is the temperature in Kelvin). So yes at the higher altitude where airliners cruise the speed of sound is lower than at sea level simply due to the air temperature being significantly lower.

The jet didn’t break the sound barrier because of the airspeed around it. If it had caused a sonic boom it could have damaged the plane as they are not meant to handle those forces
A lot of this video, namely the “planes getting close to each other” parts are violently over exaggerated in their implied risk. It’s literally not dangerous at all.
Most of us are pilots just tired of seeing the same random nonsense the media feeds people. I mean really? Super Sonic 787's XD I mean just the lack in knowledge and expertise in explaining it is unreal. You wanna know about aviation, just go get real lessons from a real flight instructor, who knows how to explain aviation to someone who knows nothing.
1:57 This was Virgin Atlantic’s Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner flying over Pennsylvania (on the route from Los Angeles (LAX) to London Heathrow). So this incident didn't happen over the Atlantic Ocean, as it could sound from the video.

I flew once from Taiwan. The plane arrived 2.5 hours early. I got my bags first off the carousel land was home two hours before the original landing time. Unbelievable day. I think it clocked at 800 mph.
I have flown across the Atlantic 8 times in the last 8 years and never had ANY turbulence. The only turbulence on any of those flights was going over the mountains between Vegas and LA on A380 from LHR to LAX.
@@raven4k998did you learn about one single thing aka TCAS and now you think you know everything pilots know? TCAS is a final "fail safe" system. They don't fly blindly and then avoid TCAS. TCAS is for emergency situation. When they plan routes and flight altitude and time, all that in advance is meant to avoid ever hearing TCAS alert in the air in the first place.
Thays because mountain tops create turbulent air. As a pilot, I love getting throw around by turbulence. The more severe it is the better. Idk how you passengers keep freaking out thinking we will crash. What do you assume your pilot is just a sky Uber? Most peolle don't understand what it takes to be a pilot. They think it's as easy or slightly more difficult than getting a driver's license. Some ppl even think to become a pilot you get hired by an airline with zero flight experience. And they immediately train you in jets for a month and boom now youre a pilot. Lmao
So many exaggerations and inaccuracies in this video! In addition to what other people have said, another false statement is that turbulence might cause planes to run into each other. Clearly, not enough research was done for this video. Even extreme turbulence doesn't cause loss/gain of 1000 ft. Turbulence only poses a risk simply because of possible injury to passengers during extreme situations. Moreover, turbulence has been increasing due to increased amount of planes in the sky [prior to covid], not necessarily due only to climate change, but that is debatable.
Yes on a busy highway it's very windy from cars zooming by. I can only imagine how windy it would be if cars were replaced by large airplanes and increased speed 😮
@@ginadoucette949 If you are talking about wake turbulence, that is only caused by flying within several hundred feet and within about 2-3 minutes after the previous aircraft occupied that airspace. This is a non-issue for aircraft at cruise altitudes as there is never less than 1000 ft of vertical separation between aircraft and literally miles of lateral separation. And on the approach & takeoff phases where the effects of wake turbulence are more pronounced, further steps are taken to avoid any encounters with it.
2:00 A plane moving at 801 MPH ground speed does *not* necessarily "break the sound barrier" if the tailwind behind it is also moving fast in the same direction.
It takes you eight minutes to say: because it's the shortest route to connect a bunch of huge european airports with a bunch of huge east coast USA airports. Unless the topic is that this route is severely overcrowded, and not "why are they even flying there" in which case, put that in the title instead, why don't you?
Just so everyone knows. Every commercial plane has a TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) built into them, it warns the pilots in advance if a collision will happen so they can avoid it. Also all commercial planes have radar built into them so the pilots can see the position of other planes near them. Most importantly it is part of the standard operating procedure to monitor the systems of an aircraft during flight and yes that includes TCAS. With a system like that in place the chance of a plane to plane collision during flight is very low.
I didn't think planes can detect other aircraft with radar because as far as I know the only radar they have is weather radar which only detects precipitation.
@@Fomiteswell the system is new, idk if airliners have it. But a lot of planes especially smaller ones have ADSB IN, it let's us see the position and altitude of nearby planes. I've actually had my life saved once by this system. It's not exactly radar, its like a GPS system with ground stations that transfer the information. Look it up. It's called ADSB. And I don't think airliners have that system installed though I'm not sure
Not mentioned of course is the fact that in the Northern Hemisphere the Jet Stream flows West to East. So flights from Europe to North America try to choose altitudes to avoid the Jet Stream as it will lengthen flight time significantly and of course increase fuel burn. The second reason why many flights use the Northern Transatlantic Corridor is because of ETOPS (Extended Twin-engine OPerations), Most long haul flights operate under ETOPS-180 meaning that the flight cannot be more than 180 minutes from a diversionary airport should the aircraft lose one of its engines. Remember that flying on one engine will be slower than on two engines, and the Jet Stream is likely not pushing you in the right direction, and the aircraft may not be able to maintain as high an altitude on one engine. So aircraft flying the North Atlantic Corridor will need to be closer to Gander, Newfoundland, and then Reykjavik, Iceland. For the more southern route to Portugal and Spain it's Bermuda and the Azores Islands for diversions. ETOPS-240 is possible, but only a select few Airlines can meet the rigorous maintenance and operational standards needed to receive that authority.
A few things here, a planes TCAS system will prevent any collisions if it is flying too fast and close to another plane, airliners in a overspeed condition would reduce speed and drop into another attitude to avoid undo stress to the air frame, when traveling outside of radar or VHF range a plane would use gps tracking and communications, the North Atlantic track is preferred because of fuel savings and time but a flight would need permission and if there is too much traffic or other factors a plane would be scheduled on the track traveling closer to Iceland when crossing

The plane that sped up because of the wind, would not "catch up" with those flying in the same direction at the same altitude. They would all speed up. It's relative to each other. The separation is the same over the USA, which is even more convoluted, because planes fly in so many more directions. We don't just use ground radar either. In 2020, ADS-B became required, but was installed in a lot of airplanes 10 years prior. It uses a combination of GPS and altitude sensors to report and communicate with satellites. You are NOT invisible up there. Even without any ATC around, you can see the other airplanes yourself on the moving map, and get warnings from it.
Yea I wanna see a video on some other route not New York to Europe for once. Don't planes fly from LA to Australia or something? How about NY to Hong Kong? Why does it always have to be Atlantic routes?
I'm not certain of the connection between the jet stream and the Tacoma Narrows bridge. The bridge collapsed due to a design flaw that was exacerbated by high winds. I'm confused.

Very nice video, although I would like to comment on the fact that the B787 did not break the sound barrier. The mach number (what measures the ratio of an airplane speed with respect to the speed of sound, where M = 1 corresponds to a sonic speed) depends not on the ground speed but on true airspeed. When an airplane has a big tail wind (which was the case of this B787) ground speed increases but airspeed remains constant (if power inputs remain also the same). For that reason, even though the B787 was traveling at a ground speed of 758 mph, it’s true airspeed still remain well below the speed of sound. I hope this made sense.
The real problem is London Heathrow taking in entirely too many flights ✈️ they have completely screwed up that airport. It’s always been busy yes, but they need to get that extra runway installed asap
It didn’t break the sound barrier. Speed of sound is local, their airspeed was still ~600 mph. If a passenger plane broke the sound barrier, they would have a lot more to worry about than separation on a travel lane
That is Wild Earth! Always changing, Never static. And certainly never catering to mankind's comfort zone. We are not owners of this Beautiful Planet, only Inhabitants.
"What do you think of the increased turbulence in the jet stream?" Is that a trick question? What do I think about having to breathe oxygenated air? Well, it's a nuisance, so I'll vote against it next time. 🙂 Science doesn't give a fig about what any of us think. It's something we just have to live, or die, with. Twitter users will of course disagree ... 🤣
We fly great circle routes because, due to the bulge of the earth, that route is shorter than a direct route say from Paris to New York. I crossed the North Atlantic as a B-767 captain exactly 100 times and 99 of those were flown on the great circle tracks. One time I departed Geneva, Switzerland and as I was approaching the west coast of France, I got re-routed almost directly to Newark, my destination. That direct routing took 1:15 hours longer than my flight plan route that would have taken me way north, then over Nova Scotia then Newark.
Vertical wind shear is when winds shears vertically. That is the level of explanation you'd get from Cheddar. I'm here for the incredulous commenters, not the low-bar video. Cheddar is a terrible source of information.
Long flights across the Atlantic can be very boring if you struggle to sleep on an airplane. Nothing wrong with a little turbulence to spice things up.
ok so id thought id give my explanation on this video 1, the nats are not dangerous each plane is atleast 4 mins away from each plane and 1000ft above or below in RVSM airspace. 2, you do not report ur position every 4 mins you report passing the waypoint/ cord enroute with a message as follows "GTI8083 passed 40N30W at 1300Z mach .85 FL360" and this is done through satcom/dlink. 3, that virgin 787 was not in any danger as its airspeed did not change only its groundspeed changed (airspeed is the speed realitive with the air and ground speed is the speed over the ground) also id note that it did not "get close to other planes" because the other planes were flying in RVSM airspace with 1000FT vertical seperation between them and other planes at the same altitude would experience the same winds. I would also add that in RVSM airspace aircraft going west 180-359 degrees fly at a different set of altitudes then aircraft flying east 000-179 degrees. My tip, please have an understanding of how aviation works before u make a stupid video and make urself sound stupid because u dont actually want to take the time to do proper research you just want to spread "fear" into gulable minds who to know nothing about aviation.
@@zackaplowitz I honestly never heard of Bodø Oceanic Control Area. (If I missed any others ↙️: North Atlantic Operations - Airspace - SKYbrary Aviation Safety www.skybrary.aero/index.php/North_Atlantic_Operations_-_Airspace; )
Crossed the atlantic at least 40 times and only ever had turbulence in the winter months (maybe 2times where it was severe) and right when we were about to cross from the ocean to a land mass and vice versa. Don’t worry folks, airplanes are designed to withstand turbulence waay stronger than we have on Earth.
1. More planes does not necessarily equal more danger 2. Lack of Radar coverage is becoming less relevant as more aircraft include on board radar and collision avoidance systems At least do a little more research. Aviation is a very well organized field. Understanding the nuances is very important.
Severe turbulence is reported more than it was in the past. It is on the rise but much more met reports are gathered. BTW- the aircraft that encountered the jet streak didn't break the "sound barrier", an archaic term, its groundspeed increased while its speed through the moving air mass remained the same.
So what about on their journey from Europe to America flying against the flow of jetstream. I guess the main reason the planes use these routes, both ways, is because it's the shortest distance.
We maintained separation from other airplanes flying the great circle tracks once out of radar contact by maintaining a precise assigned airspeed, lateral track, and altitude.
@BigfootSquad BWPP Bahamas Living Gets tiring after a while. Under any flight video, fans somehow feel the need to mention that they know Wendover's channel as if it's a hidden-gem type channel. It's got 3m subs. Luckily we don't have to scroll through 3m random comments per video. (I googled conch salad, it looks yummy!)
Planes take this very over crowded route because there ar NO Satellites in Space to provide them with GPS. What a great video for de-bunking the myth of Satellites! Thankyou.
Traffic jam? Airspace is a 3-dimensional environment. Imagine a shared route that's just 50 miles wide and ranged from 30 to 40K feet. You could give each trans-Atlantic aircraft its own 2-cubic-mile block of space to occupy and you'd still have room for almost 250,000 airliners moving at the same time from New York to London. The flight paths aren't where the crowds are, it's the AIRPORTS.
If I was piloting a plane that was in a jet stream going 800 mph and hear a sonic boom I would go on the loud speaker and say "hey guys, you ever been on a concorde before?"
If the 787 broke the sound barrier the elevator would lose effectiveness from compressibility and the aircraft would have permanent structural damage. It did not break the sound barrier, it's ground speed equivalent in KCAS or true airspeed would be supersonic, but the 787s systems would deploy the spoilers, airbrakes and bring the engines to idle if it came anywhere near it's Vne. Also you guys didn't take ETOPS into account.
Thanks very much for the video, this is great information for my air band monitoring activities. I used to receive New York and Santa Maria ATCS clearly couple of years back. All the electronic noise pollution has made it difficult these days. I get Shannon volmet very feebly. 😢
You wanna "break the sound barrier" kid, just set the winds from the west at 400mph, and fly an airliner at the fastest Mach speed it will go. Bingo. New York to London in 2 hours ;)
I actually appreciate the shift from optimism about what could be prevented if governments took action to a more realistic resignation towards the hazards we are certainly going to face and face now because we know they won’t.
Can only make that flight once without going back to Portugal! Though I suppose you could just take a series of westward flights.. Portugal->NYC->LA->Hong Kong->Portugal or whatever similar combination.. then you could fully avoid the jet streams over both oceans!
I literally paused the video as they said that and repeatedly the line to my significant other. We both said it makes no sense. For it to be precise, it must be very accurately measured... Right?
@@LuckyWitjaksono Thats so cool that you are majoring in that man, the speed that the plane hit was well above the sonic barrier speed but do to the extreme winds no boom was made. Sorry that I may seem like I'm trying to attack your claim.
@@dumbcrapchannelyt3286 ah yes there are ground velocity and relative velocity, the tail wind made the ground velocity higher than mach 1. But aerodynamic analysis uses the relative velocity of the air around the aircraft not the ground speed
So let me get this straight, communication with a plane is limited and ground based, but NASA can send a mission to Mars and communicate to Mars with no problems? 🤣
At 5:24 at least show the correct controllers in NATS who determine the routes. Hint, it's not at an airport control tower that will literally only be dealing with landings, takeoffs and ground movements at that airport.
Planes flying in the same direction such as in the jetstream from North America to Europe are always split by 2000ft. Not 1000. Planes that are flying East always have odd altitudes; 31,000ft, 33,000ft etc. Whilst those flying West fly at the even altitudes in between. In this section of the sky, you don't have planes flying westward at all as they'd be going against the jetstream.
GPS tells you, where you are. Doesn't tell anyone anything. And this video is so full of errors. The biggest fear based one is how close planes fly.... the numbers they are are the rare events, or distances when they are landing at a busy airport.
Thanks for the video. Now I know two consiquenses caused by jet stream. On you explained here. Another one is the weather in Toronto, for example. Did you know that Toronto is more southern most city than Florence? Yes, it is. But the weather in these two cities is quite different. Florence doesn't have Canadian jet stream.

Haven’t started this vid yet but I also think they take this route because of the Gulf Stream and also shipping lanes so if anything happens it’s easier to find. Plus it’s shorter due to the earths curvature
In Nov. of 1997 I flew EWR to FCO considerably under 7 hours on a Continental DC-10-30. The Captain told us we had a 200 + mph tail wind. I have made that trip many times before and since that was my shortest flight. By the way the return trip was over 8 hours 40 minutes.
4:33 not quite the video is great but the animation doesn't show the accurate location of the stream. It is closer, if not over the state of Maine. EDIT: The thumbnail of the video is a perfect representation of the stream.
Doesn't the jet stream move? it can easily dip and push in different directions. As an example most winters the jet stream dips more south in south eastern USA which helps pull in that cool artic air.
That 787 did not break the sound barrier. There is a difference between airspeed and ground speed.
Ah, someone else noticed.
It is technically possible it did if it hit turbulent air it’s moment could’ve carried it through allowing it to be super sonic even if only briefly

The jet didn’t break the sound barrier because of the airspeed around it. If it had caused a sonic boom it could have damaged the plane as they are not meant to handle those forces

Right it's not dangerous, the 1000 ft minimum exists for a reason 🤦🏽🤦🏽🙄. I hate when videos know nothing about airplanes

I flew once from Taiwan. The plane arrived 2.5 hours early. I got my bags first off the carousel land was home two hours before the original landing time. Unbelievable day. I think it clocked at 800 mph.
hey if it's safe who cares if it's over crowded as long as they don't hit each other it's fine
@@raven4k998ground speed and air speed are separate things. On a bad day, the same flight may have been 2 hours longer.
I have flown across the Atlantic 8 times in the last 8 years and never had ANY turbulence.
The only turbulence on any of those flights was going over the mountains between Vegas and LA on A380 from LHR to LAX.
as long as they obey tcas everyone's safe cause tcas will keep them from crashing should something go wrong
@@raven4k998did you learn about one single thing aka TCAS and now you think you know everything pilots know? TCAS is a final "fail safe" system. They don't fly blindly and then avoid TCAS. TCAS is for emergency situation. When they plan routes and flight altitude and time, all that in advance is meant to avoid ever hearing TCAS alert in the air in the first place.
Thays because mountain tops create turbulent air. As a pilot, I love getting throw around by turbulence. The more severe it is the better. Idk how you passengers keep freaking out thinking we will crash. What do you assume your pilot is just a sky Uber? Most peolle don't understand what it takes to be a pilot. They think it's as easy or slightly more difficult than getting a driver's license. Some ppl even think to become a pilot you get hired by an airline with zero flight experience. And they immediately train you in jets for a month and boom now youre a pilot. Lmao

So many exaggerations and inaccuracies in this video! In addition to what other people have said, another false statement is that turbulence might cause planes to run into each other. Clearly, not enough research was done for this video. Even extreme turbulence doesn't cause loss/gain of 1000 ft. Turbulence only poses a risk simply because of possible injury to passengers during extreme situations. Moreover, turbulence has been increasing due to increased amount of planes in the sky [prior to covid], not necessarily due only to climate change, but that is debatable.
Yes on a busy highway it's very windy from cars zooming by. I can only imagine how windy it would be if cars were replaced by large airplanes and increased speed 😮
@@ginadoucette949 If you are talking about wake turbulence, that is only caused by flying within several hundred feet and within about 2-3 minutes after the previous aircraft occupied that airspace. This is a non-issue for aircraft at cruise altitudes as there is never less than 1000 ft of vertical separation between aircraft and literally miles of lateral separation. And on the approach & takeoff phases where the effects of wake turbulence are more pronounced, further steps are taken to avoid any encounters with it.
@mikev.6705 lol no but that's ok 😊
2:00 A plane moving at 801 MPH ground speed does *not* necessarily "break the sound barrier" if the tailwind behind it is also moving fast in the same direction.
It takes you eight minutes to say: because it's the shortest route to connect a bunch of huge european airports with a bunch of huge east coast USA airports.
Unless the topic is that this route is severely overcrowded, and not "why are they even flying there" in which case, put that in the title instead, why don't you?
Just so everyone knows. Every commercial plane has a TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) built into them, it warns the pilots in advance if a collision will happen so they can avoid it. Also all commercial planes have radar built into them so the pilots can see the position of other planes near them. Most importantly it is part of the standard operating procedure to monitor the systems of an aircraft during flight and yes that includes TCAS. With a system like that in place the chance of a plane to plane collision during flight is very low.
I didn't think planes can detect other aircraft with radar because as far as I know the only radar they have is weather radar which only detects precipitation.
@@Fomites its not radar, they are communicating
@@Fomiteswell the system is new, idk if airliners have it. But a lot of planes especially smaller ones have ADSB IN, it let's us see the position and altitude of nearby planes. I've actually had my life saved once by this system. It's not exactly radar, its like a GPS system with ground stations that transfer the information. Look it up. It's called ADSB. And I don't think airliners have that system installed though I'm not sure
This is what you get when producers do not have fact-checkers that are pilots.
They are more climate alarmists than anything
Not mentioned of course is the fact that in the Northern Hemisphere the Jet Stream flows West to East. So flights from Europe to North America try to choose altitudes to avoid the Jet Stream as it will lengthen flight time significantly and of course increase fuel burn. The second reason why many flights use the Northern Transatlantic Corridor is because of ETOPS (Extended Twin-engine OPerations), Most long haul flights operate under ETOPS-180 meaning that the flight cannot be more than 180 minutes from a diversionary airport should the aircraft lose one of its engines. Remember that flying on one engine will be slower than on two engines, and the Jet Stream is likely not pushing you in the right direction, and the aircraft may not be able to maintain as high an altitude on one engine. So aircraft flying the North Atlantic Corridor will need to be closer to Gander, Newfoundland, and then Reykjavik, Iceland. For the more southern route to Portugal and Spain it's Bermuda and the Azores Islands for diversions.
ETOPS-240 is possible, but only a select few Airlines can meet the rigorous maintenance and operational standards needed to receive that authority.
Dispatch much. What airline?
A few things here, a planes TCAS system will prevent any collisions if it is flying too fast and close to another plane, airliners in a overspeed condition would reduce speed and drop into another attitude to avoid undo stress to the air frame, when traveling outside of radar or VHF range a plane would use gps tracking and communications, the North Atlantic track is preferred because of fuel savings and time but a flight would need permission and if there is too much traffic or other factors a plane would be scheduled on the track traveling closer to Iceland when crossing
6:24 the guy TELLS you it's cause of climate change. 10 seconds later 6:35 there's a quiz - "What's causing this gigantic change? if you guessed climate change, bingo."

The plane that sped up because of the wind, would not "catch up" with those flying in the same direction at the same altitude. They would all speed up. It's relative to each other.
The separation is the same over the USA, which is even more convoluted, because planes fly in so many more directions. We don't just use ground radar either. In 2020, ADS-B became required, but was installed in a lot of airplanes 10 years prior. It uses a combination of GPS and altitude sensors to report and communicate with satellites. You are NOT invisible up there. Even without any ATC around, you can see the other airplanes yourself on the moving map, and get warnings from it.
This video: "All planes..."
Southern Atlantic Ocean: am i a joke to you?
Yea I wanna see a video on some other route not New York to Europe for once. Don't planes fly from LA to Australia or something? How about NY to Hong Kong? Why does it always have to be Atlantic routes?

Wendover does a way better job talking about aviation. I highly recommend him!
I'm not certain of the connection between the jet stream and the Tacoma Narrows bridge. The bridge collapsed due to a design flaw that was exacerbated by high winds. I'm confused.
You aren't as confused as whoever thought the Tacoma Narrows collapse had anything to do with the jet stream.

787’s can’t break the sound barrier.
They can't whilst flying normally. In a nosedive they can though
@@jan-lukas Actually the plane would break up before going transonic, and the individual pieces experiencing exponentionally more drag would prevent even the majority of the debris from going supersonic.
I had to dislike for some of the blatantly wrong info. Next time talk with a pilot before hand. Pilots are easy to find, because they'll always tell you they're a pilot.
my family doesn’t, if anything they try to avoid talking about their jobs
Very nice video, although I would like to comment on the fact that the B787 did not break the sound barrier. The mach number (what measures the ratio of an airplane speed with respect to the speed of sound, where M = 1 corresponds to a sonic speed) depends not on the ground speed but on true airspeed. When an airplane has a big tail wind (which was the case of this B787) ground speed increases but airspeed remains constant (if power inputs remain also the same). For that reason, even though the B787 was traveling at a ground speed of 758 mph, it’s true airspeed still remain well below the speed of sound.
I hope this made sense.
The real problem is London Heathrow taking in entirely too many flights ✈️ they have completely screwed up that airport. It’s always been busy yes, but they need to get that extra runway installed asap
It didn’t break the sound barrier. Speed of sound is local, their airspeed was still ~600 mph.
If a passenger plane broke the sound barrier, they would have a lot more to worry about than separation on a travel lane
That is Wild Earth! Always changing, Never static. And certainly never catering to mankind's comfort zone. We are not owners of this Beautiful Planet, only Inhabitants.

I love your sarcastic wit. I had such a grin reading your comment.
We fly great circle routes because, due to the bulge of the earth, that route is shorter than a direct route say from Paris to New York. I crossed the North Atlantic as a B-767 captain exactly 100 times and 99 of those were flown on the great circle tracks. One time I departed Geneva, Switzerland and as I was approaching the west coast of France, I got re-routed almost directly to Newark, my destination. That direct routing took 1:15 hours longer than my flight plan route that would have taken me way north, then over Nova Scotia then Newark.
Thank you! was hoping someone would mention this

Should have explained what vertical wind sheer actually is.
Vertical wind shear is when winds shears vertically.
That is the level of explanation you'd get from Cheddar. I'm here for the incredulous commenters, not the low-bar video. Cheddar is a terrible source of information.
Long flights across the Atlantic can be very boring if you struggle to sleep on an airplane. Nothing wrong with a little turbulence to spice things up.
In Ireland, looking up and you always see trans-Atlantic planes.
Ireland 😍
I’ve never been to Ireland, but I have flown over it many times.
ok so id thought id give my explanation on this video 1, the nats are not dangerous each plane is atleast 4 mins away from each plane and 1000ft above or below in RVSM airspace. 2, you do not report ur position every 4 mins you report passing the waypoint/ cord enroute with a message as follows "GTI8083 passed 40N30W at 1300Z mach .85 FL360" and this is done through satcom/dlink. 3, that virgin 787 was not in any danger as its airspeed did not change only its groundspeed changed (airspeed is the speed realitive with the air and ground speed is the speed over the ground) also id note that it did not "get close to other planes" because the other planes were flying in RVSM airspace with 1000FT vertical seperation between them and other planes at the same altitude would experience the same winds. I would also add that in RVSM airspace aircraft going west 180-359 degrees fly at a different set of altitudes then aircraft flying east 000-179 degrees. My tip, please have an understanding of how aviation works before u make a stupid video and make urself sound stupid because u dont actually want to take the time to do proper research you just want to spread "fear" into gulable minds who to know nothing about aviation.

Crossed the atlantic at least 40 times and only ever had turbulence in the winter months (maybe 2times where it was severe) and right when we were about to cross from the ocean to a land mass and vice versa. Don’t worry folks, airplanes are designed to withstand turbulence waay stronger than we have on Earth.
2:29 Is this a part earth?
1. More planes does not necessarily equal more danger
2. Lack of Radar coverage is becoming less relevant as more aircraft include on board radar and collision avoidance systems
At least do a little more research. Aviation is a very well organized field. Understanding the nuances is very important.
Passengers on the fast 800 mph flight: thank you for getting me to my destination much faster. Why can't all fly that speed?
If I remember correctly , wendover production made a video about this too.
Edit, except the meteorlogy part.
and his didn't have 10 facts wrong...
Severe turbulence is reported more than it was in the past. It is on the rise but much more met reports are gathered. BTW- the aircraft that encountered the jet streak didn't break the "sound barrier", an archaic term, its groundspeed increased while its speed through the moving air mass remained the same.
So what about on their journey from Europe to America flying against the flow of jetstream.
I guess the main reason the planes use these routes, both ways, is because it's the shortest distance.
We maintained separation from other airplanes flying the great circle tracks once out of radar contact by maintaining a precise assigned airspeed, lateral track, and altitude.
Somebody's been watching Wendover videos again...

@@TrainerAQ I see you, fellow aviation nerds
Traffic jam? Airspace is a 3-dimensional environment.
Imagine a shared route that's just 50 miles wide and ranged from 30 to 40K feet. You could give each trans-Atlantic aircraft its own 2-cubic-mile block of space to occupy and you'd still have room for almost 250,000 airliners moving at the same time from New York to London. The flight paths aren't where the crowds are, it's the AIRPORTS.
If I was piloting a plane that was in a jet stream going 800 mph and hear a sonic boom I would go on the loud speaker and say "hey guys, you ever been on a concorde before?"
You would not hear the sonic boom from inside. Anyway, airspeed is measured relative to the air and ground speed is airspeed + wind speed.
@@elweewutroone eh, still would've known
The “airport” were seeing at 08:15 is a train station. St Pancras international to be precise!
If the 787 broke the sound barrier the elevator would lose effectiveness from compressibility and the aircraft would have permanent structural damage. It did not break the sound barrier, it's ground speed equivalent in KCAS or true airspeed would be supersonic, but the 787s systems would deploy the spoilers, airbrakes and bring the engines to idle if it came anywhere near it's Vne.
Also you guys didn't take ETOPS into account.

You wanna "break the sound barrier" kid, just set the winds from the west at 400mph, and fly an airliner at the fastest Mach speed it will go. Bingo. New York to London in 2 hours ;)

At 5:24 at least show the correct controllers in NATS who determine the routes. Hint, it's not at an airport control tower that will literally only be dealing with landings, takeoffs and ground movements at that airport.
Planes flying in the same direction such as in the jetstream from North America to Europe are always split by 2000ft. Not 1000. Planes that are flying East always have odd altitudes; 31,000ft, 33,000ft etc. Whilst those flying West fly at the even altitudes in between. In this section of the sky, you don't have planes flying westward at all as they'd be going against the jetstream.

How many jets in a a jetstream make a stream of jets?
In Nov. of 1997 I flew EWR to FCO considerably under 7 hours on a Continental DC-10-30. The Captain told us we had a 200 + mph tail wind. I have made that trip many times before and since that was my shortest flight. By the way the return trip was over 8 hours 40 minutes.
Are we to assume the planes flying threw the jet stream are not changing it just by flying threw it every minute of the day?
4:33 not quite the video is great but the animation doesn't show the accurate location of the stream. It is closer, if not over the state of Maine.
EDIT: The thumbnail of the video is a perfect representation of the stream.
Doesn't the jet stream move? it can easily dip and push in different directions. As an example most winters the jet stream dips more south in south eastern USA which helps pull in that cool artic air.
As a meteorologist, that assists with the flight paths, I hate to inform you that climate change is the biggest myth going around right now
