I was acquainted with a flight attendant from a major airlines in the late 90s. She told me there was a culture of intimidation among the crew. If a pilot came on board smelling of alcohol they dared not report it. That airlines has been in the news recently with safety problems. Makes you wonder what slips through the cracks. That being said, I’m sure the majority of pilots across the board are true professionals and take their job and the safety of passengers very seriously.
It is ALL on a checklist. The Aviation industry is respected world-wide for their scrupulous adherence to checklists. They're almost Buddhist about it.
Yes and this one is called a “memory item” it must be done from memory first then later the check list is read to confirm all steps were done correctly.
You people should get Michael Richards on your podcast. That would be great
Love that
That was fantastic - thank you!
Really! Fascinating, love your channel…
Honestly love a podcast that briefly mistakes the 737 for the 747 and calls Boeing and McDonnell Douglas 'airlines'.
Richard Quest is great - thank you very much!👍

Jason Alexander has such a beautiful smile
"..well, you don't know Matilda like I do but, okay.."🤣
Your theme music makes me think of some of the TNT hosting shows from the 90s.
Regulators should pass a bill requiring airlines to offer a warm blanket and shirts for kids when flying in a B 737 max just in case !!!
Not just applauded it’s REQUIRED knowledge from each 737 Pilot from memory and has been since the 1960’s. Every 737 Pilot knows it.
soo wonderful to watch. :-)
Finally Richard injects brains into the conversation
Love your podcast! You all really have something cool here!
Absolutely!
The cost of writing manuals in different languages is unreal. Terms and translations make it difficult in different languages.
I heard writing instructions on how to do anything even in your own language is pretty difficult.
It's worth the cost.
Figure out how to get it done and be cost competitive.
And get it all on PAPER, please. We need an accurate record...
"Good for Mrs. Bezos. That's great. That's terrific for her." 😆
I think Boeing, I hear "Boing!!"
English is the established common language among everyone in the flight ecosphere.
6&a half minutes in... Boeing is based in Kansas...... Food for thought
Damn CNN expert. But I'll try to watch.
After listening to this "expert", I'll never fly again. All the boxes have checked.
1:15 Jason can't comprehend how funny he thinks he is, even as he says it, even though it's not funny at all~
A company so bad it ... ... ... gives me pain 😅
Well I know for a fact some aircraft come back from MRO’s with defects they shouldn’t….fact
I loved this guy in Austin Powers
Not quite correct, the runway stabilizer checklist is a MEMORY ITEM, it must be done from MEMORY.

Memorization is to be applauded but a list of words on paper is more reliable.
Free flight fare if you agree to sit next to the emergency exit.😅
I'll be happy to take that seat if I can fly in peace.
Answer to your question……NO
