    this brings to mind a story i heard about a pilot flying into berlin, and the atc was getting a bit flustered at the pilot and sarcastically asked, "sir - havent you ever flown in to berlin before?!?!?" and the pilot responded, "yes, but that last time i was flying a bomber." it was shortly after ww2.

      I did not realize that insanity had spread so widely. I don't know why they can't have an international agreement to give a week's notice? I see the law lets you clowns fly into the air with less than full fuel tanks just enough to get to two alternate airports. I always thought that was a little bit risky and every once in awhile someone runs out of fuel from some contingency planning failure. I never dreamed you could be in the air with just enough fuel for two alternate airports and a couple passes and has somebody call you on the radio and say by the way just fly around in a circle here while we resolve this.

Legally it means they were all given termination notice unless they accept new conditions. After 2-3 month notice period ATC CoE were simply over as of 30.04.2022. No one went on strike. Simply not very wise handling of the negotiations by ATC management offering new conditions or termination. Especially considering requirements for ATC position. BTW ATC management has been changed.

Once out of US airspace no tax. United kept sending reports showing little alcohol served on international flights until out of US airspace. Director of Customs smelled a rat and would audit United's records. Left Customs before issue was resolved. Those little 75 ML bottles really caused a dust up.

    I retired before CPDLC was in all our aircraft, and my older fleet was never upgraded (to my knowledge). However, we did have a digital means of communication which was similar. We could use it in emergencies, total loss of comm (including relay by other aircraft) and for certain very limited functions. For example, we could receive our oceanic clearance digitally. However, we still had to contact center by voice and read the entire thing to them, and get a verbal acknowledgement. We could NOT do most other things, like position reports, altitude changes, etc. We went all over the world, and used that digital comm on every flight for all sorts of routine things, usually with our Dispatch. But not for ATC, barring the limited uses I just described.

    Hello, I have 32 years as a commercial pilot. A few years as a training captain L1011 and line captain the last 16 years for Easyjet ORY. I really enjoy your YT. I remember the old captains exchanging overfly permits numbers as it was collection cards. One could say: I fly to India tomorrow do you have a number. One captain or FE would give him a overflight number from his notebook in exchange for another permit. It took some times for the ATC to check the numbers and if it was a used one they called back and the captain did say; sorry my mistake and gave them another. Before the ATC have had a chance to verify we left their airspace. It worked for years and we save a great amount of fuel. until they started to visually ident the aircraft with military fighters.

I was in grade school in the 70s and a classmates parents were killed in a plane crash. It totally changed the lives of everyone in the community because those deaths are so rare. I'm just so sorry for your pain and loss. Thank you for sharing about your brother.

    Regards to random routes: that also occurs over sparsely populated lands as well, most notably Canada and Alaska. There's very few high-level airways over much of Canada connecting the major airports, so a random route is often issued. For instance, Montreal to Vancouver is almost always a random route as if all the airways are strictly followed, then the route would be a lot longer. So coordinate waypoints and VORs being part of the flight plan is very common.

    • @danghostman2814
      @danghostman2814 Рік тому

      Because how can they (legally) get to a spot where they would need to exit?
      You would need to take off in Canada, or enter Canadian airspace - both of which you are banned from. If you are inside, in the air, and trying to go out, you've already broken at least one of those rules.
      So, accordingly, you will soon be undergoing an enforced landing - attempting to exit the airspace is an attempt to avoid that enforcement. And therefore, on the principal that it's hard to deal with someone who's run away, a rule to say you can't run away from the other rules.
      A (somewhat bad) parallel is if you were caught going the wrong way down a one way road, there's additional laws to say you can't drive away from the police officer until they've ticketed/finished their conversation with you.

    It looks to me that the re-routed portion wasn't necessarily the one that went across the tracks, but rather the one going to PORTI. I've flown New York - Moscow and back a couple of times before the war, and we still went all the way along the coast of Greenland, over Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Finland, as that seems to be the shortest route. The part that changed for the flights you are covering appear to be the fact that they were not allowed into Canadian airspace and had to go west for a long time before they could switch back to the normal northerly direction.

    • @Curt_Sampson
      @Curt_Sampson 2 роки тому +13

      Yeah, I just checked in Google Earth and the great circle route for NY-Moscow crosses over New Brunswick, Quebec and Newfoundland-Labrador, touches the southern tip of Greenland, then crosses Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Finland. (It turns out that Google Maps does not show great circle routes, BTW.)
      So they wouldn't have been flying the North Atlantic Tracks anyway, though it sounds as if they were flying first to PORTI regardless, and thus not passing over Canada anyway. (Aeroflot 111 is, or was, a Miami-Moscow flight.) Which explains why they would have enough fuel; this was not a major diversion for them.

    • @fToo
      @fToo 2 роки тому +7

      Yes indeed. I think Aeroflot was already banned from European airspace when this incident occurred - so they had presumably already planned to fly north of Norway.
      As you say it was just the route to get to PORTI that changed suddenly when Canada closed.

    The data terminal reminds me of ADSI--a technology used in the telecommunications world for a very short period of time so that companies like AT&T could lease you a "screen phone" like the Nortel™ Vista and you could get on-screen directory assistance, sports scores, movie and airline tickets, flight info, and even a very early and somewhat primitive version of "Visual Voicemail".
    It used a technology that is still used today for Caller ID and CWCID called FSK or frequency shift keying. It's that modern or fax (hissing) sort of tone you hear after the call waiting tone when you're on a landline home or small office phone and someone else calls in.
    I wonder if FSK is used with the CPDLC. It looks so much like a screen phone, especially with the soft-keys.

    Fascinating content! I've always wondered about this because every few months when I fly from Liberia, Costa Rica to D.C. and back. The route is always the same, fly over Nicaragua (oh look it's Lake Managua!) into the Gulf, then over Cuba (or is it next to Cuba? You can see Cuba from the plane) to Key West and then south Florida and up the east coast. Figured there are "sky lanes" but thanks for explaining it.
    Is it common for airlines to schedule flights going into and out of certain airports around the same time? Here in Liberia you can count on most of the flights being within the same two hour window and I've always wondered the why.

      If there aren't a big volume of flights, grouping them up means you can cut down on staffing/admin/overhead

      Yes, there are jet routes that act like highways in the sky. Complete with intersections and on and off ramps.
