- THIS VIDEO IS A RECONSTRUCTION OF THE FOLLOWING SITUATION IN FLIGHT:
16-APR-2021. A Swiss Airbus A340-300 (A343), registration HB-JMA, performing flight SWR288 / LX288 from Zurich International Airport (Switzerland) to Johannesburg O. R. Tambo International Airport (South Africa), after departure requested to hold near the airport and reported about problem with their flaps system. Later the pilots decided to return to Zurich but prior to that they needed to dump fuel.

THE VALUE OF THIS VIDEO:
THE MAIN VALUE IS EDUCATION. This reconstruction will be useful for actual or future air traffic controllers and pilots, people who plan to connect life with aviation, who like aviation. With help of this video reconstruction you’ll learn how to use radiotelephony rules, Aviation English language and general English language (for people whose native language is not English) in situation in flight, which was shown. THE MAIN REASON I DO THIS IS TO HELP PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND EVERY EMERGENCY SITUATION, EVERY WORD AND EVERY MOVE OF AIRCRAFT.

HOW I DO VIDEOS:
1) I monitor media, airspace, looking for any non-standard, emergency and interesting situation.
2) I find communications of ATC unit for the period of time I need.
3) I take only phrases between air traffic controller and selected flight.
4) I find a flight path of selected aircraft.
5) I make an animation (early couple of videos don’t have animation) of flight path and aircraft, where the aircraft goes on his route.
6) When I edit video I put phrases of communications to specific points in video (in tandem with animation).
7) Together with my comments (voice and text) I edit and make a reconstruction of emergency, non-standard and interesting situation in flight.
Something so nice about european ATC
Great job!👍🏻
👍
Good one. Cheers!

Am I the only one who thought Dr Strangelove was working ATC???
That's a great flick
Great comment.

Hm they could burn that fuel easily by continuing the flight. Moreover, with a refuel stop around Egypt, due to the extra drag :)
That wouldn’t work as you would then be in an airport with a flap problem requiring repair. Can it be repaired quickly. Is there the appropriate engineering support and parts. Crew duty hours etc. Much better back in home base.
