If they was really a problem on that flight, the pilot wouldn't had declared an emergency to land conveniently. They would of been several distress calls before, and with another tone. That pilot is an idiot and a douchebag. I would NEVER took place on a plane with him on board.
That was my question... wondering the system about emergency declaration. They obviously can't do it just cuz, like they need to be able to have a good reason. Which 100% low fuel with a huge plane is the best reason....but how does that work? Do they have to file a report or answer to someone or .....?
After seeing the amount of salt in this video, I remember when we about to land our flight from Mexico City to Chicago our pilot said "we're gonna be up here for an extra moment now since tower control is being american as always" now makes sense
. . . This sounds like a bunch of guys playing flight simulators. [EDIT] HOLY COW! I never had a comment reach anything close to a hundred and here this one after a year is at 10K! I'm glad you all liked it.
I love this air traffic controller, " if you can get over it, under it, or around it, you let me know. I don't need you to tell what I can see & you can't." Lol.
It's frightening to think people with so much hostility towards one another are holding so many passengers' lives in their hands. The irritated egos are just ridiculous.
Bonanza Pilot: "Hold short of 17, did you just call me a banana?" Tower: "No sir, no sir you did not hear that correctly. [laughter]" Other Pilot: "I heard it." SNITCH!!
@@AlfaGiuliaQV To be honest, that shortened radio transmission is quite error prone and the controller is absolutely correct to remind the pilots that clear transmissions are expected. I don't want to sit in a plane where pilots misinterpret takeoff clearances and readbacks...
@@ferrari2k And the pilot is being more than a little passive-aggressive, but the controller did make an important error. When you key the mic, you have to pause before speaking or else the first fraction of a second gets cut off. Or, if ATC radio doesn't work like that, then he began speaking before he keyed his mic, so that transmission at 1:38 is more distressing to me than a pilot abbreviating his callsign. That's a controller who needs a refresher in basic radio communications.
My flight training airport is really close to my house, and when we're in the less common wind direction, I have to literally land over my house and can see it out of the window just to my left! Sometimes finding my house can be a bit distracting from actually flying the plane though...
I cant remember the details now but a couple decades or so ago there was some kind of issue with ATC folks. Quitting or suicide or something. I can understand as this seems as stressful as trying to heard cats in a Buffalo stampede. Or eating soup in a coffee filter.
That was the best. Really I found this to be more alarming than funny- and I love to laugh. Also love the wallet drop. God love 'em for keeping most of us alive!
"What did you say the captain's name was?" *"...oooh noooo..."* My uncle is a pilot and unless there's a serious situation going on, it's tradition to not interrupt another pilot when he mistakenly broadcasts something meant for the PA system, and then have a good natured poke about it,.
Oh so the captains name want the joke. They just asked to repeat the name to tell him of his broadcast error right? I was straining to hear the name lol
I worked at a grocery store and did that a couple of times, I hit intercom on calls to other workers. Once I was talking shit about my boss an accidentally hit intercom lol good times
Pilot has a prerogative to ask and demand from ATC.... final responsibility for passenger safety rests with the pilot... if he deems that ATC instructions are in any way compromising the safety of the aircraft he can inform ATC what he is doing and they HAVE to clear the way and accommodate his request.... the controller in this case is going to get nailed for forcing the pilot to declare an emergency.... SO all you "pros" that think he was whining and declared an emergency in order to get his way.... Well, I won't call you stupid but definitely ignorant of the flight regulation ....
I'm a paramedic, this is my new favorite phrase to explain to my patients why their crazy idea got them hurt. " No, messing with fireworks is unwise. Please try to understand the safety."
He thought it was a child, I imagine he was just checking if they had brought in like an unaccompanied minor to see the cockpit, maybe wanted to make the kids day or something
@@Badmanpuntbaxter he could also have said that to make the potential "visitor" less alert. I certainly thought it sounded much more like a woman's voice than a child's
Exactly. And when he said, "we need to make a report" the pilot caught on and confessed real fast. In this context, a "report" means possibly calling out the fighter jets to handle a potential hijacking. You don't want that on your resume.
I flew into JFK on an Aeroflot flight from Moscow and they sent us all the way down to one end of the airport only to come all the way back. Arrogant pricks for trying to hurt Russia while delaying 200 American passengers.
Richard Kroll jfk controllers are rude and unprofessional, they would not send you to the other end of the airport though on purpose. That’s just make believe if you seriously think they would willingly do that at such a busy airport. It’s like shooting yourself in the foot
It's like a witchhunt on aussietawk, going for ages now... i think it's something to do with the rest of the english tribes seem to be too butthurt about the isle having proper cars, manual lorries and streamliner trains.

@@geesegoose6174 American 2601 is the correct callsign and 2601 is not actually okay. Pilot was in the wrong and passive-aggressive, tower was 100% within his rights to ask the pilot to use a correct callsign.
For those interested, in the case of the 2010 emergency on American Airlines Flight 2, they were already at emergency fuel, and company policy forbade them from landing on runway 22R with the wind gusting as it was, even though the airplane was still within its limits. (For those who don't understand why the pilots wouldn't push the company's limits in favor of the airplane's higher limits, in aviation, and especially with older companies, such as American Airlines, safety culture is pretty important. Planes have been lost because pilots overestimated the plane or underestimated the forces exerted on the plane.) I imagine they were already a priority aircraft and believed that they had communicated their situation with ATC adequately. Thus, even though it probably could have been worded better, they requested runway 31R, and then declared an emergency. Once an airplane declares an emergency, they are the number one traffic and basically get to request that others move out of their way- crying wolf will get you in trouble, but low fuel and bad weather are generally good reasons to declare an emergency. I found a longer clip of this incident and there's a big change in the pilot's voice once they're on the ground. In the air, the pilot's voice is the voice of a terrified man who has steeled himself in the face of a stressful situation- I have spent my entire life learning to pick up on social cues manually, because my brain is not wired to do it automatically. This has actually made me better at reading people than most, and I am now capable of picking up on things that others don't because they don't have to focus on trying to receive these signals. Once the plane is on the ground, it's almost like they weren't even in an emergency situation- there's metric tons of tension that is noticeably absent once they're requesting taxi instructions. Mostly, it sounds like a failure to communicate clearly. The pilot on the radio should have *clearly* declared an emergency the moment they realized they couldn't land 22R instead of saying they would declare if they couldn't get 31R- the pilot obviously believed he had declared an emergency, but due to the poor wording, he actually hadn't. The ATC should have snapped into emergency mode after the second declaration, but that's the downside to "declaring an emergency" as opposed to the unambiguous nature of the "Pan-Pan" and "Mayday" calls- in this case, a Mayday call should have been used by the pilots. Everything ended well, and I believe that this incident contributed to America phasing out the ambiguous emergency declaration. Now, even though this was a minor incident, the NTSB still has to get involved. When the news heard about all this, they actually contacted the ATC union spokesman at Kennedy- one Steve Abraham. Many of us know him better as Kennedy Steve. He actually spoke in defense of the pilots, and if Kennedy Steve thinks you made the right call, you probably did. In the end, no one on the ground or in the plane got in trouble.
In the USA, "Declare an Emergency" is in the FAA regulations as equivalent to Mayday. Other nations have similar allowances for localized declarations. This is not just the US being unique for the sake of it.

The best giggle I got was a time, some years ago now, a DC3 was coming into the Terrace British Columbia airport flying over the Kitimat beacon. DC 3 had a noisy cockpit, so not surprisingly pilot and copilot were wearing good headphones. Pilot called into Terrace traffic his position and altitude. Suddenly another voice came over the airwaves “Hey! You can’t be at that height over Kitimat beacon; WE are coming in over the beacon at that height. There follows a few brief moments of tension, then “ You dummy! I’m your captain!” Must have been some memorable conversations once that pair landed!

@Vincent Cuttolo I'm surprised he didn't ask for the full ground frequency at the end instead of just ".9". I work in railway and we'd be lashed for those sort of contractions. I've seen & made stupid mistakes being by shortening a trains code.
capnskiddies It’s a published acceptable practice to use only the decimal portion of the ground control frequency if the frequency is in the 121 MHz range.
@@53C52 I wasn't aware of that. We're always lectured along the lines of "Be more like ATC. They're very strict & thorough". Maybe it's contextual, but I've worked in an area that at one time had railway signals in different locations named DL18, PE18, & CY18 AND different classes of trains with headcodes A911, D911 & E911. Contracting those can and has led to a passenger train being authorised into an occupied section unintentionally and in serious breach of the signalling regulations.

The funniest thing I ever heard on the radio was at Fulton County Airport (FTY) many years ago. A student pilot was given taxi instructions and he responded, "10-4". The controllers came back on to correct him and you could hear the others laughing in the background. Some other pilots had to rib him too. Poor guy.
I remember flying into Las Vegas one time and they had the COM on one of the channels at our seats. ATC said can you slow up a little, the plane in front is still on the runway. The pilot said, " We have everything hanging out except the laundry."
They probably had gear down too which causes additional drag... so full flaps, slats, full airbrakes and gear, and throttled as low as possible without stalling; yup, there's literally nothing left they can do but hang the laundry out. Love it, rofl.
every scrip I get from my doc I look at it and it's like the spaghetti writing middle easterns uses... how tf do the pharmacists just glance at know exactly what it says?
The funny thing is that doctor handwriting is bad pretty much everywhere in the world. Maybe this isn't limited to just doctors, but since they handwrite stuff more often than other professionals, people tend to notice it more... I don't know. As for pilots, I can understand them fine (provided radio noise is low)... ATCs, on the other hand, they focus too much on speed, so I can't understand a thing they say, which defeats the purpose. What's the point of having an ATC who can't be understood? It's an obstacle, not an asset (and if he/she has an attitude, even worse)
I don't know about taxiway takeoffs, but I know of one celeb that did a taxiway landing, much to his embarrassment. "I'm the schmuck who landed on the taxiway..."
- Are you declaring an emergency? - Yes, I’m declaring an emergency! I’ve declared it THREE TIMES ALREADY! CLEAR EVERYONE OUT OF THE WAY! - Okay, I just wanted to check, because you said you ‘would’ declare em- - CLEAR EVERYONE OUT OF THE WAY!!!
The real story to that convo isn't a real emergency. The pilot was flipping out that he wasn't getting the runway he wanted so he would declare the emergency to get it his way. So ATC was a bit confused why an emergency just for a runway. They have the full convo on YT somewhete.
Dubious Your Absolutely Right he was fired then taken out back and beaten senseless. Do you actually think ALPA would allow a pilot to be fired based on the fact that he wanted a different runway to guarantee all his passengers arrived safely. Maybe he couldn’t manage the crosswind but the Fact is the pilot is in control when it comes to passenger safety Not NY ATC. Sure the controller had his hands full when this occurred and this no doubt was Extremely Frustrating. About the only thing I can think of to compare the frustration level to ... is a pilot having to land and taxi while dealing with the dripping sarcasm any day of the week in NY.😂😂😂
Every single time I hear the "Thank you, if you can get under, over or around the Lufthansa a340 between you and the gate, tell me" I start laughing hard. What a jewel of quick sarcasm 😂 I'd have applauded even if I was the unfortunate pilot it was directed at. 😁
Wife: "take out the trash now!" AtC: "i'm taking care of the kids right now honey, wait until I can" Wife: "I'm declaring . . ." ATC in PTSD: "Nooooooo" Wife: "an *EMERGENCYyyyyyy*"
These people in the tower and the pilots are absolutely AMAZING! The brilliance it would take to keep that pace of conversation and observation is exhausting and commanding. I am impressed!!
Passengers: I trust the pilot and air traffic control to keep me safe Pilot: "Yee fUckINg wANkeR GIMme tHaT RUnwaY two seven niner ARRGh" ATC: "What, you egg?"
"Thank you very good if you can get under, over or around the Lufthansa A340 between you and gate 4 you tell me about it. " Why is no one talking about this? 😂
@Aidan Bramwell declaring false emergency surely has consequences. if he's prepared to face all that, he must have had pretty good reason for doing that, whatever the tone of his voice may be.
@Aidan Bramwell he clearly said they were flying on visuals only so I'm guessing their instruments went to shit so if fog or wind was bad I'm sure he would want to try to land in headwind and a runway he can see.
@@Mr.Potato420 he was saying they were going visual to land, aka f*** the vectors. I believe they were running out of fuel and concerned about the crosswind on the other runway, iirc.
I work as an air traffic controller, lol. Of course, sometimes we have fun in friendly manner, but nothing personal with Captains - they too. How ever, we always keep the safety in our mind - Zero error/mistake/carelessness is our guideline.
how stressful is the job? id imagine it would be especially during busy times and dealing with people not using the right call signs and having to correct them
adrenaline well, usually everyone is pretty professional and knows their stuff. At large airports, the airspace gets chopped up into sections that different people get. It’s a handoff once the plane leaves their section. Really don’t handle more than 4-6 planes at a time depending on how large your section is. It’s a highly stressful job though but a lot of the atcs are able to hold a conversation with you and direct planes at the same time. It’s a lot of timing to keep everything running smoothly and on time. :)
Heppieboeddah American Airlines is the company, the call sign to refer to that company on the the radio is American. Just like British Airways, their call sign is Speed Bird. So the pilot was calling himself by the company name not his call sign and was using incorrect phraseology.
I heard a good one from an old BA pilot after a long flying career - he retired in 1976. Coming in landing circuit over Frankfurt, the traffic controller gave confusing instructions. Pilot asked a few times to repeat and clarification. To which she retorted rudely that he clearly hadn't been there before otherwise he would know it. He replied he had indeed been to Frankfurt many times before but it was dark, he was being shot at and he didn't land. A different atc soon came back to clarify the original issue.

For those interested, in the case of the 2010 emergency on American Airlines Flight 2, they were already at emergency fuel, and company policy forbade them from landing on runway 22R with the wind gusting as it was, even though the airplane was still within its limits. (For those who don't understand why the pilots wouldn't push the company's limits in favor of the airplane's higher limits, in aviation, and especially with older companies, such as American Airlines, safety culture is pretty important. Planes have been lost because pilots overestimated the plane or underestimated the forces exerted on the plane.) I imagine they were already a priority aircraft and believed that they had communicated their situation with ATC adequately. Thus, even though it probably could have been worded better, they requested runway 31R, and then declared an emergency. Once an airplane declares an emergency, they are the number one traffic and basically get to request that others move out of their way- crying wolf will get you in trouble, but low fuel and bad weather are generally good reasons to declare an emergency.
I found a longer clip of this incident and there's a big change in the pilot's voice once they're on the ground. In the air, the pilot's voice is the voice of a terrified man who has steeled himself in the face of a stressful situation- I have spent my entire life learning to pick up on social cues manually, because my brain is not wired to do it automatically. This has actually made me better at reading people than most, and I am now capable of picking up on things that others don't because they don't have to focus on trying to receive these signals. Once the plane is on the ground, it's almost like they weren't even in an emergency situation- there's metric tons of tension that is noticeably absent once they're requesting taxi instructions.
Mostly, it sounds like a failure to communicate clearly. The pilot on the radio should have *clearly* declared an emergency the moment they realized they couldn't land 22R instead of saying they would declare if they couldn't get 31R- the pilot obviously believed he had declared an emergency, but due to the poor wording, he actually hadn't. The ATC should have snapped into emergency mode after the second declaration, but that's the downside to "declaring an emergency" as opposed to the unambiguous nature of the "Pan-Pan" and "Mayday" calls- in this case, a Mayday call should have been used by the pilots. Everything ended well, and I believe that this incident contributed to America phasing out the ambiguous emergency declaration. Now, even though this was a minor incident, the NTSB still has to get involved. When the news heard about all this, they actually contacted the ATC union spokesman at Kennedy- one Steve Abraham. Many of us know him better as Kennedy Steve. He actually spoke in defense of the pilots, and if Kennedy Steve thinks you made the right call, you probably did. In the end, no one on the ground or in the plane got in trouble.
Thank you for the info, that helps give a lot more context.
That was really interesting, thank-you for sharing this information
Miss Kennedy Steve.
I know nothing about aircraft’s, this context really helped! Thanks!!!
In the USA, "Declare an Emergency" is in the FAA regulations as equivalent to Mayday. Other nations have similar allowances for localized declarations. This is not just the US being unique for the sake of it.

@@53C52 I wasn't aware of that. We're always lectured along the lines of "Be more like ATC. They're very strict & thorough".
Maybe it's contextual, but I've worked in an area that at one time had railway signals in different locations named DL18, PE18, & CY18 AND different classes of trains with headcodes A911, D911 & E911. Contracting those can and has led to a passenger train being authorised into an occupied section unintentionally and in serious breach of the signalling regulations.

I like hearing the insults from the people flying giant metal beasts in the sky
I remember flying into Las Vegas one time and they had the COM on one of the channels at our seats. ATC said can you slow up a little, the plane in front is still on the runway. The pilot said, " We have everything hanging out except the laundry."
HAHA that's a good one!
carabela125 I’m confused... could a fellow comrade explain?
comment control in addiction to airbrakes and flaps, they could have released the laundry to gain more friction to speed down AHAHA

Can't read a doctor's handwriting, can't understand a damn word the pilot's saying.

The funny thing is that doctor handwriting is bad pretty much everywhere in the world.
Maybe this isn't limited to just doctors, but since they handwrite stuff more often than other professionals, people tend to notice it more... I don't know.
As for pilots, I can understand them fine (provided radio noise is low)... ATCs, on the other hand, they focus too much on speed, so I can't understand a thing they say, which defeats the purpose.

Every single time I hear the "Thank you, if you can get under, over or around the Lufthansa a340 between you and the gate, tell me" I start laughing hard. What a jewel of quick sarcasm 😂 I'd have applauded even if I was the unfortunate pilot it was directed at. 😁
Wife: "take out the trash now!"
AtC: "i'm taking care of the kids right now honey, wait until I can"
Wife: "I'm declaring . . ."
ATC in PTSD: "Nooooooo"
Wife: "an *EMERGENCYyyyyyy*"
so.... the wife's a Karen?
😂😂😂
"sudo make me a sandwich"
lol!!
He messed up the bold lol

Man, some of this radio traffic sounds like teenagers playing an online video game and yelling at each other that the other guy is doing it wrong.
@Timothy Simpson I'M DECLARING AN EMERGENCY!
DO NOT CALL ME BANANA!
@@TheFrogInYourClosetWatchingYou so you're declaring an emergency?
@@Redbikemaster He has already told you 3 times

These people in the tower and the pilots are absolutely AMAZING! The brilliance it would take to keep that pace of conversation and observation is exhausting and commanding. I am impressed!!
American ATC trying to be as cool and badass as humanly possible.
French pilots with French accents: uhh ok
Apparently the Scottish are the hardest to understand what they are saying
@@dylanvan3300 easy just throw in a couple of ochs and a few eye laddie you'll be fine
French pilot after turning off the coms: Ziz merde ATC guy has ze smalles penis...

I think he just didn't get the apparent defensiveness of the ATC. But then the controller is fully in the right, these pilots act like children.
Passengers: I trust the pilot and air traffic control to keep me safe
Pilot: "Yee fUckINg wANkeR GIMme tHaT RUnwaY two seven niner ARRGh"
ATC: "What, you egg?"
😂😂😂
I laughed way too hard at this 🤣
"No they lied to ya"
Doing this job, I'd go mad within 5 minutes.
“Yeah one of the previous pilots left their wallet in there, could ya drop it out the window or something?”
“Sure!”
"Thank you very good if you can get under, over or around the Lufthansa A340 between you and gate 4 you tell me about it. "
Why is no one talking about this? 😂
I want to but I just don't know what it means?
@@nishatjahan5410 The gate is open, but the path is blocked by another plane.
@@toomanymarys7355 a wide, 4 engine plane at that
At least the people in the Lufthansa flight were on a nice plane during this clusterfuck
Hysterical! NY sarcasm at its best.
Me: wow flying planes has to be such a serious, professional career. Bet everyone is very serious.
Reality: Did you just call me a banana?

"Remove everybody from our way, we have declared an emergency"
5:02 dude the way he says it I'm laughing so much
That dude sounds just like the American 2601 from earlier
@Aidan Bramwell declaring false emergency surely has consequences. if he's prepared to face all that, he must have had pretty good reason for doing that, whatever the tone of his voice may be.
@Aidan Bramwell he clearly said they were flying on visuals only so I'm guessing their instruments went to shit so if fog or wind was bad I'm sure he would want to try to land in headwind and a runway he can see.
@@Mr.Potato420 he was saying they were going visual to land, aka f*** the vectors. I believe they were running out of fuel and concerned about the crosswind on the other runway, iirc.
@@sarthakrao72 His tone sounded nervous as well, so I don't know what you're talking about by saying “whatever the tone of his voice may be”.
Wow, so much passive Aggressiveness - and I thought my Desk Job was bad...
This job is stressful indeed even though the salary is high.
I work as an air traffic controller, lol.
Of course, sometimes we have fun in friendly manner, but nothing personal with Captains - they too.
How ever, we always keep the safety in our mind - Zero error/mistake/carelessness is our guideline.
These people at JFK seem to care more about arrival / departure rates, not having to change stuff (and giving pilots attitude without a reason), tbh.
how stressful is the job? id imagine it would be especially during busy times and dealing with people not using the right call signs and having to correct them
adrenaline well, usually everyone is pretty professional and knows their stuff. At large airports, the airspace gets chopped up into sections that different people get. It’s a handoff once the plane leaves their section. Really don’t handle more than 4-6 planes at a time depending on how large your section is. It’s a highly stressful job though but a lot of the atcs are able to hold a conversation with you and direct planes at the same time. It’s a lot of timing to keep everything running smoothly and on time. :)
Nice to hear that !
it's almost amazing how they sound so professional and not at the same time
Tower: “American 2601
Pilot: “No sir, it’s American Airlines 2601” 😂
It's absolutely "American 2601" though, that pilot was a muppet
Heppieboeddah American Airlines is the company, the call sign to refer to that company on the the radio is American. Just like British Airways, their call sign is Speed Bird. So the pilot was calling himself by the company name not his call sign and was using incorrect phraseology.
@@Heppieboeddah The full callsign is AMERICAN no airlines

American is correct, not American Airlines.
“Is there anyway you could drop it out of the window”
Dead 😂
I heard a good one from an old BA pilot after a long flying career - he retired in 1976.
Coming in landing circuit over Frankfurt, the traffic controller gave confusing instructions.
Pilot asked a few times to repeat and clarification. To which she retorted rudely that he clearly hadn't been there before otherwise he would know it.
He replied he had indeed been to Frankfurt many times before but it was dark, he was being shot at and he didn't land.
A different atc soon came back to clarify the original issue.
