Ich hab noch nicht alle eure Videos durch, aber ne Frage: Habt ihr ein Video, wo man auch den Crew Rest Bereich sieht bzw. wie der Crew-Wechsel auf langen Strecken funktioniert?
For those ones criticizing her the TCAS alert is sooooo extremly loud. It makes jump to the roof when you are concentrated on something and that is the purpose. She reacted very quickly and precisely without panic. That is professionalism !
Love how she reacted. Adrenalin extra large there. That is how a pilot should react. Immediately she started to check radar and around her. Real good. Exactly how I want a pilot to react when I am a passenger. Those who are just like “meh” hope I don’t fly with them ever.
It’s amazing how people can judge this pilot just because she was scared. A bus driver who sees a car coming in front of him can’t be scared? It’s the same situation… a worker who hears an alarm in his factory can’t be scared?? Human beings can feel fear, it’s normal, they have to deal with it and control it, which she perfectly did!! Bravo!
Exactly this. All we saw was a burst of adrenaline. That’s how our bodies are hardwired, but people’s outward response displays differently in different individuals. Obviously.
She didn't look scared to me. She looked startled first because of the abrupt traffic warning which sounds LOUD in the cockpit because its supposed to startle the pilots. She then just looked concerned when she immediately was scanning the instruments with her eyes, then tried to get a visual on the other aircraft, after she had acknowledged the alarm and that the other pilot had control of the aircraft. She did 100% of what is expected of her. Half the people here who are passing judgment on her have no idea what they are talking about.
As a pilot I can't understand the negative comments here. This is an example of team work. Captain and first officer should and do rely on each other. A good first officer is a joy to work with.
@@homeybaloney1059 Every job need respect true, But the amount of pressure and what they have to look all the time, its really stressing. So I can understand that a lot of people would not handle that even trying their best.
For anyone unfamiliar those TCAS alerts are REALLY loud and catch you off guard. If you're not expecting it and are super relaxed or focused on something they can give you one hell of a fright. In real life they are nothing like what you hear in video or on flight SIMs. All the aural warning systems are designed to be heard clearly over anything that may be happening so in an ordinary, quiet cockpit they really cut through your mind. It definitely doesn't help they are still quite early in the decent, where a TCAS TA is not normally anticipated. When flying around many smaller airports they can be reasonably common but catching one in the flight levels would certainly warrant the brown pants. Probably doesn't help that some airline sim instructors make really nasty exercises during training where they throw TCAS conflicts at the pilot and assess their performance harshly leading to a fear reaction. Whilst complacency shouldn't be introduced, realistically most TCAS warnings are not warranting immediate evasive action and serve to draw the pilots attention to a potential conflict. What you really don't want to hear is a TCAS RA (resolution advisory) in which case there is high probability of conflict.
I flew a Cessna Caravan with TCAS before . Just loud but no big deal. Besides, pilots should know at all times his position, look outside whenever possible and absolutely not rely on automation. American Airlines textbook 👍🏻🍺
@@wagnergitirana a Cessna flying at 120 MPH is alot different than a jet flying below 10,000 feet at 250 Knots while looking for little Cessna airplanes that are almost impossible to see.
So many old bolt pilots here! If you‘re super focused at something and you‘re getting shout at by a really important system, you‘ll react just as she did… …in real life. But maybe not in front of your Flight Simulator 2020. Great crew coordination, super professional cockpit work. Greetings, another real pilot.
So many stupid comments here aimed at the first officer. She was suprised for a second, so what? Those alerts are designed to get your attention and they may take you by surprise. She reacted by communicating the type of alert and who's in control, the exact right thing to do. They then analysed the conflict to see if it was a threat. Swiss train excellent pilots. Human error is still the main cause of accidents, but it's absolutely tiny compared to the amount of safe flights every day.
I agree on everything you say. She might still be new to the job but I think in general it‘s not good at all if you get a scarejump like that from a basic traffic notification, the TCAS simply notified them of a plane in their surroundings on similar height, it was not even close or else TCAS would have advised to climb or descent. If I see right the separation with the other plane was 3500 feet the moment it did the alert (maybe 500 feet but looks more like 35 than 05) and she looked really scared even afterwards. Now imagine what happens if she got a double engine out bird strike like Sully or a real TCAS alert Still she handled the rest very well and like a pro saying the right things in a clear and fast way, also very professional so thumbs up to that
Yeah, she really jumps but that's probably because these alerts are so rare. I bet anyone would have the same reaction. Note that she later catches the captain dialing in the wrong descent rate (+1000 ft/min instead of -1000 ft/min). And then later he corrects her readback of the gate number from Z12 to J12. That's exactly why you have two pilots constantly cross-checking each other.
the way she looks at the view with all the clouds is just breathtaking. when you can still feel the luck of enjoying such views almost every day you know you chose the right job.
For those thinking that she overreacted to the TCAS alarm, air traffic collisions and stall situations are among the most dangerous situations pilots can face so it’s pretty normal to be scared by these alarms she’s an human after all but still kept a cool head
Really excellent CRM. TCAS was handled very well. Great communication between pilot (Mr. Chocolate bar) and co-pilot. Everything is checked (as per procedures) and the small number of mistakes were quickly identified and fixed. This is teamwork
00:46 "TRAFFIC TRAFFIC" -- Wow! You can tell by the way she (the first officer) jumped that that is not something they are used to (or WANT to) hear!! That being said, kudos to their professionalism and how quickly they negated the situation. Well done.
They didn't negate anything. There never was a conflict, it was TCAS freaking out. They even remarked at the climb rate of the other aircraft because that's why the TCAS alerted them to something that wasn't a real conflict.
By reading the comments I can tell most aren’t pilot and make it sound easy pretending to know what they’re talking about. As a pilot I can tell you I always get a little inner freak out when I hear the TCAS going off, for some reason you always feel like you’re about to collide mid air and you start looking out for the traffic ready to take evasive action, which is good because that’s the whole purpose of it. I think her reaction surprised us as much as it surprised her. Pilots aren’t robots and we can face unexpected situations that we have to deal with, so her reaction was totally human. Plus you need to think that she was focused on something else and going through some checklist and then that loud warning went off. Also the plane is descending and flying fast, an A330 isn’t a Cessna, and the traffic was less than a 1000ft below them. So yeah, you need to be quick because you never know. Pilots are humans and so are the controllers, no one is safe from mistakes and it can happen that the controller forgets to pay attention. That’s why we always cross check each other and don’t take anything for granted, otherwise you might hurt yourself pretty badly. Just a pilot having a normal human reaction and a professional reaction to that. Give her a break. Safe flights. ✈️
@@CasualGlassEnjoyer Hi, sure. I am a Flight Instructor in the United States so I fly different types of small aircrafts including Cessna, Cirrus, Piper and Diamond.
@@Arcadiez i disagree . i think i'll go with Dylan the flight instructor's substantiated point of view. she just seems alert, ready , confident, and in control. "nervouse" is fear+alert but not in control.
Very good video with an authentic pilot monitoring reaction. It's real life, not a training. For all those who judge the Pilot Monitoring reaction, get your APTL, MEP, IR, MMC + 500 Hrs + QT, cross the ocean during 8 to 9 hours, jetlag in your head and do better in one of the most congested area in the world with a sudden alert in the flightdeck's right seat in a heavy airliner full of passengers... We'll enjoy the show and comment behind a screen, comfortably sitting in a chair ! Authentic reaction, normal stress and good team work and actions. Period.
also she went straight from panic to concentrated work mode. id rather have someone witht his reaction fly the plane im in than a FO thats not taking things like this seriously...
I thought she handled herself perfectly. I know I’ve had that same reaction though not in a A330. Will still rattle you in an RJ coming through NYC airspace
There are internet knowitalls everywhere. "She panicked, hurr duuurrr!" As if commenting from the comfort and anonymity of keyboard gives it any importance. Nevermind that the pilot handled the situation perfectly after being startled. Nevermind that - she just "freaked out" (no she didn't).
Humans are prone to being spooked when they don't expect something. She appeared a bit panicked for a sec, but she didn't say a single word that could cause confusion with the captain. Impressive.
I think its really cool that they allow this to be recorded for us to watch. I used to work on the ramp in ATL (C Concourse for ASA/Delta) Some of us really cared about planes and customers, while the majority didn't seem to really care. It was rough. But it was an awesome job.. just wish it paid more, hence my "used" to work there. But I have no regrets .. it was such an awesome experience.
Excellent presentation of teamwork and crew coordination. Quite impressive.. What's unique for me is how the two transition between English and their native language without missing a beat. That was cool. . .and awe inspiring to listen and learn.
Rob M it’s pretty common in Asia especially where most of the population are bilingual. As for India, many are trilingual and some even speak 5-6 language with ease. Just an average thing here.
I know some comments highlight how the copilot was startled by the TCAS alert, but that is only human. The copilot immediately dealt with the situation (although full disclosure I’m not a pilot). The copilot also seemed to be confident and competent when she corrected her captain when he entered a steep positive vertical speed during the approach. If I was a captain, I’d want a copilot like that to have my back.
Don't give her shit for "jumping" at the TCAS alert. She at least has the necessary skills and knowledge on how to handle it. She is still learning on the job, hence, the correction by the captain. Kudos to the F/O girl! You did a good job there. Need a tad bit refinement but still lightyears better than any person out here giving you shit.
Crystal clear visuals and editing. Even I jumped with Tcas, but could not see the traffic. I would have thought ATC would have kept separation, unless it was those balloons that was mentioned! A fantastic clip from the group. Loved it. 👍
At 1:04 if you look on your screen just under the “.” after the “210kt.” in the subtitles you can see another aircraft. It will be moving right to left on your screen.
99.87% of comments: "Huuur duuuur she got scared when the TCAS alert sounded! Huur duuuuurp!" Meanwhile, literally half a second later, she responds perfectly and takes care of the issue. How about you all get certified to fly a plane like this, get your flight hours racked up, fly in a congested area and see how well you do when your plane gives a warning of immediate danger?
Just shows how busy it can get. Imagine throwing in bad weather & bad visibility into the mix with a bit more traffic . I think everybody who has flown a plane has felt overloaded at some time.She is very quick with her responses. There is a lot happening here & they are really working as a crew.CRM in action. Great video . That TCAS alert made her jump. People who say some pilots are overpaid take note of all that going on here.
Steegie yes she was , He calmed her down though.. You could see everything build up on her.The TCAS message she wasn’t expecting . She wouldn’t be on video or an FO on a 330 if she wasn’t a very competent pilot . I went into Sydney with storms around in the jumpseat before 2001 & was stunned at how busy it got. I had felt it & seen it as a private pilot things started to overload, that is why in my very amateurish opinion CRM is so effective.
Captain is superb... he managed co pilot very well after the TCAS Alert. Joked around and calmed her back down.. great piece of work by the pilot and co pilot very efficient
@@anguyom an awful lot more happened regarding captains management of the situation, especially just after the end of the TCAS situation.. I guess he was so good you never even spotted it.
It means that another plane is close and may hit your plane... and the TCAS alert is extremely loud and it’s made to surprise and make you immediately know about what may happen, she reacted fast and well and that’s why you’re supposed to do...
In this video, while the captain is very good, the first officer is superb. Their mixing of English and Swiss German is interesting, but is consistent with the level of their interaction with ATC and each other. A great video … even if he is trying to show off a little!
Pretty good communication between the 2 pilots. They both made mistakes that were immediately caught by the other. I heard no egos, sounded like respect was offered by both. Gj
Thank you for this good and friendly analysis. If we made you want to see the entire film - here's the address: petv.co/vodmia The film features 24 different subtitle languages. Have a good flight and thanks for your comments.
Surely, you can observe the rest of the 90minutes episode by visiting the Library of all PilotsEYE.tv episodes. This is the episode, you were mentioning: petv.co/vodmia Have a good flight!
For all you armchair sim-pilots, consider this: When you're driving a car, and someone you don't see blows his horn, you jump big-time. That's what she did--nothing more. She did not panic and shove the yoke to the firewall. She flinched and recovered in less than one second. If she hadn't jumped, it would have proven she knew nothing of TCAS. We wouldn't want that.
A10PANG She got a fright. The fright reaction serves the organism to quickly adapt to a threat. And that's what she did. Panic is something completely different.
Seems that lady pilot is a bit nervous , But she didn't forget procedures even in panic situations. That's really awosome and they really enjoyed the flight and so as we..Hats off for this hero.
I agree. I'm sure, though, that any pilot's stomach might do a flip flop if the TCAS went off. I really enjoyed the cloud surfing!! Great video and great coordination among the pilots. Well done!
While both pilots seem good at their jobs, can we please not call everyone and everything a "hero" for just doing their job? A hero is someone who goes above and beyond the call of duty, putting themselves at risk for the sake of others.
Nice vid, as it shows the importance good apprenticeship and learning from senior personnel. Co-Pilot Jenny Knecht was really spooked by the TCAS alert and showed how important it is to learn and to adhere to accurate, to he point communication on flight deck. Now, 4 years later, she has more than 3500 flight hours per yt and is certainly a well-trained highly professional pilot. Tap my head for the honesty and openness to show the little bumps from the early days. This is how we learn, after all
That's very politically correct! I don't think she learned much from that captain that day. Instead, I would say she was an excellent FO, picking up the Captain's errors quickly and without fuss. I doubt very much that SOPs require the FO to say "TCAS You have control" which shows she reacted faster than the Captain could... so yes... she got an adrenaline rush! A good experience. Sometimes its hard to say nothing and wait.
In the 048 minute the scare that the first officer gave when TICAS warned, but very professional I congratulate her, since she resolved the problem in the best way,
Wow! What a huge workload on the last half of the video! No way 1 pilot can do all that safely! In fact he got corrected on the -1000 vertical (although he would have figured that out within 5 seconds). What a beautiful voice she has. And what a great team knocking off their punchlist together, so well coordinated, relaxed, and in control! I absolutely love the looks to clear the runway they are about to cross, as if "ya! we could die today!"
The way the fo corrected the captain for putting +1000 on the dial instead of -1000ft showed to me what a professional she is. Would love to see her start a channel when she has gained her 4 bars. ❤
captain and FO literally do the same things. Other than a few limited approaches that demand a captain fly them they usually switch roles as pilot flying and pilot monitoring, thus both do the same thing other than a limited amount of items in the pre flight checklist.
Stefan McShane No question. I really enjoy this crew. Outstanding CRM, plus you can tell they love flying. I’m curious if either fly Sailplanes on off time?
These two again? They are obviously talented pilots, but what I really enjoy is their cool Swiss-German conversation/accent (with an occasional pigeon English thrown in for good measure). ‘Tree touzent feyt- cero cix cero. ‘
Im sure an unexpected tcas alert would make anyone jump like that, and frighten anyone , obviously she is of a timid nature, but she was able to handle it , so all well that ends well, shes concientous, heard tcas and immediately knew it was serious hence the fright she got, proves she knows what shes doing
You really think so, despite the number of 'mistakes/errors/deviations' they made in the footage? I'm thinking too, you don't actually know enough about what was occurring in the footage, to understand what mistakes were made?
I think it was her first TCAS alert, her scared reaction says all, but is a nice reaction and control of the situation, the captain sounded very relaxed

the two places I have the most TCAS alerts are Newark area and Florida. They will definitely get your attention.

Agreed. Was no more but a surprise. You could see that it vanished immediately and transformed into focus.
That's what the alarm is supposed to do. To get your attention immidiately. Looks like it worked ;) Both pilots handled it well.

Big respect to all pilots! I'm a lay person but I really underestimated how busy they are before a landing. Amazing job.
Thank you. As a pilot myself, I would like to say; Pocketa-Pocketa-Pocketa… )))))))
You can clearly see how their training kicks in ... exceptional work. It took just a milisecond and she was in control of the situation.
At the TCAS warning FO literally jumped while she was focused in her tasks. Nicely done.
0:47
I am in awe of the amount of info Jenni has to process in such a short time during descent and landing
So...amazing for a woman, right?
I took a few flying lessons, enough to realize I wasn’t cut out for it. Pilots truly have my respect.
Don't give her shit for "jumping" at the TCAS alert. She at least has the necessary skills and knowledge on how to handle it. She is still learning on the job, hence, the correction by the captain. Kudos to the F/O girl! You did a good job there. Need a tad bit refinement but still lightyears better than any person out here giving you shit.
"She got hire because she was a woman. Both of them seem to have no clue as to how to fly.
They are so professional, it’s inspiring to watch them.
0:45 she jumped on “TRAFFIC” but handled it beautifully! Amazing co-pilot!
These two are such pros. And really well produced too.
That TCAS got their attention!
The FO got me startled as well. I love that she took a deep breath and got her head back in the game
wow people give her a break she got caught off guard, she was concentrating, but she got it together within 2 seconds ... it's human
Excellent video, great CRM, thank you for sharing
Have you ever had one of those moments similar to the FO, Captain?
Great video would like more Videos from this channel
Crystal clear visuals and editing. Even I jumped with Tcas, but could not see the traffic. I would have thought ATC would have kept separation, unless it was those balloons that was mentioned! A fantastic clip from the group. Loved it. 👍
I jumped too , I thought Oh Boy here we go !
At 1:04 if you look on your screen just under the “.” after the “210kt.” in the subtitles you can see another aircraft. It will be moving right to left on your screen.
Co pilot is adorable! Luv the accent!

Yes Jenni is a very affable woman...she's a friend of mine on "messenger"(FB)
I like how they instantly jumped into action with the collision alert.
Ein sehr gutes Beispiel für eine gute Crew! Beide Piloten ergänzen sich wunderbar.
The first officer is exceptional! The Captain is too comfortable plus he is working her to the max. Great work Jenny!!👏🎉

99.87% of comments:
"Huuur duuuur she got scared when the TCAS alert sounded! Huur duuuuurp!"
Meanwhile, literally half a second later, she responds perfectly and takes care of the issue.
How about you all get certified to fly a plane like this, get your flight hours racked up, fly in a congested area and see how well you do when your plane gives a warning of immediate danger?

Yup, she started looking with the quickness, she'll be looking from left side instead of the right side before long.
Well said!
Just shows how busy it can get. Imagine throwing in bad weather & bad visibility into the mix with a bit more traffic . I think everybody who has flown a plane has felt overloaded at some time.She is very quick with her responses. There is a lot happening here & they are really working as a crew.CRM in action. Great video . That TCAS alert made her jump. People who say some pilots are overpaid take note of all that going on here.
She seemed overly stressed to have jumped through her skin like she did at 0:49. Hopefully experience will take care of that.
Steegie yes she was , He calmed her down though.. You could see everything build up on her.The TCAS message she wasn’t expecting . She wouldn’t be on video or an FO on a 330 if she wasn’t a very competent pilot . I went into Sydney with storms around in the jumpseat before 2001 & was stunned at how busy it got. I had felt it & seen it as a private pilot things started to overload, that is why in my very amateurish opinion CRM is so effective.
Captain is superb... he managed co pilot very well after the TCAS Alert. Joked around and calmed her back down.. great piece of work by the pilot and co pilot very efficient
Indeed. he calmly took action to resolve the traffic alert and the co-pilot immediately handed over control upon the traffic advisory !
@@anguyom an awful lot more happened regarding captains management of the situation, especially just after the end of the TCAS situation.. I guess he was so good you never even spotted it.
It means that another plane is close and may hit your plane... and the TCAS alert is extremely loud and it’s made to surprise and make you immediately know about what may happen, she reacted fast and well and that’s why you’re supposed to do...
@@hivram OMG I know what it is you tool. Both pilots reacted well and the captain worked his man management to perfection....
@@litchfiedr i explained what the TCAS was because a few people were asking in other comments so it was faster to explain by just copy and paste 😂😅
As a native german speaker, I love their Swiss-German Dialect, really fun pronounciation.
Hey you guys what a sweet landing, I didn't realise the cockpit was so busy,, You guys rock, and work very well together,,
They both sucked
Her accent makes everything great!! Great job crew..
she´s so awsome !
The traffic warning sounds very loud in the cockpit. Jenny probably jumped just because of the high volume level.
What a girl. She is so special.
She was terrific, first-class performance, and easy company on the flight deck. Well done !
I have watched many cockpit videos, this one give me the sense what is actually happening in real life. Great for sharing
In this video, while the captain is very good, the first officer is superb.
Their mixing of English and Swiss German is interesting, but is consistent with the level of their interaction with ATC and each other.
A great video … even if he is trying to show off a little!
A+ for teamwork. I got goosebumps when they both said runway is in sight.
Dear Captain I watched your other videos. You are a true professional. I bet your first officers feel confident flying with you. Thank you sir
The look on her face when she saw “traffic“, priceless..
Good job pilots
Very Professional crew . Well done guys. The captain and co-pilot did very well and thank God for ACAS
Whoops a typo ..that should have read TCAS
Pretty good communication between the 2 pilots. They both made mistakes that were immediately caught by the other. I heard no egos, sounded like respect was offered by both. Gj
I thought the same. Good chemistry with the captain and first officer. I enjoyed the video almost as much as I'd enjoy the actual flight.
Thank you for this good and friendly analysis. If we made you want to see the entire film - here's the address: petv.co/vodmia
The film features 24 different subtitle languages.
Have a good flight and thanks for your comments.
I have seen the whole video on another channel, 3rd x watching it here.😂
True realism, thank you. It's amazing how much takes place in the last 10 minutes of a flight that the average passenger never will understand.
Surely, you can observe the rest of the 90minutes episode by visiting the Library of all PilotsEYE.tv episodes.
This is the episode, you were mentioning: petv.co/vodmia
Have a good flight!
For all you armchair sim-pilots, consider this: When you're driving a car, and someone you don't see blows his horn, you jump big-time. That's what she did--nothing more. She did not panic and shove the yoke to the firewall. She flinched and recovered in less than one second. If she hadn't jumped, it would have proven she knew nothing of TCAS. We wouldn't want that.
She panicked for a sec dude. Get over it. Youre 1 of them guys that takes a dump but wont call it 1 arent you? lol
A10PANG She got a fright. The fright reaction serves the organism to quickly adapt to a threat. And that's what she did. Panic is something completely different.
I'm sick and tired!
@Mario I'm sick of losing.
'shove the yoke to the firewall'?
Why would she put the aircraft into a higher rate of descent, when the 'traffic' was below them?
I'm a recently retired 747 captain for United Airlines your CRM is perfect. Excellent job.
are you married? lol 😜
Like Ed Gunderson
Seems that lady pilot is a bit nervous , But she didn't forget procedures even in panic situations. That's really awosome and they really enjoyed the flight and so as we..Hats off for this hero.
I agree. I'm sure, though, that any pilot's stomach might do a flip flop if the TCAS went off. I really enjoyed the cloud surfing!! Great video and great coordination among the pilots. Well done!
@@nenblom u r right bro.
While both pilots seem good at their jobs, can we please not call everyone and everything a "hero" for just doing their job? A hero is someone who goes above and beyond the call of duty, putting themselves at risk for the sake of others.
the second pilot's face made me watch this, and the video really is incredible...
let's thank them for sharing their cockpit with us * * * * *
First Officer, she is sharp!
I like the way she confirms all milestones to Captain.
She's a great team colleague!
Nice vid, as it shows the importance good apprenticeship and learning from senior personnel. Co-Pilot Jenny Knecht was really spooked by the TCAS alert and showed how important it is to learn and to adhere to accurate, to he point communication on flight deck.
Now, 4 years later, she has more than 3500 flight hours per yt and is certainly a well-trained highly professional pilot.
Tap my head for the honesty and openness to show the little bumps from the early days.
This is how we learn, after all
A TCAS alert in that airspace will make ANYONE jump.
@@kingofcastlechaos The volume is so loud, "TRAFFIC!" would make anyone jump in any airspace!
That's very politically correct! I don't think she learned much from that captain that day. Instead, I would say she was an excellent FO, picking up the Captain's errors quickly and without fuss.
I doubt very much that SOPs require the FO to say "TCAS You have control" which shows she reacted faster than the Captain could... so yes... she got an adrenaline rush! A good experience. Sometimes its hard to say nothing and wait.
Ich hab erstmal nen Herzinfarkt bekommen bei der plötzlich einsetzenden Action-Musik und dem Schreck der Co-Pilotin :D
I can always watch the DVD. It's so great. And Jenni told me few days ago, she still flies for SWISS. 🥰
In the 048 minute the scare that the first officer gave when TICAS warned, but very professional I congratulate her, since she resolved the problem in the best way,
Scare? To me it seemed more like a shock! :D
Wow! What a huge workload on the last half of the video! No way 1 pilot can do all that safely! In fact he got corrected on the -1000 vertical (although he would have figured that out within 5 seconds). What a beautiful voice she has. And what a great team knocking off their punchlist together, so well coordinated, relaxed, and in control! I absolutely love the looks to clear the runway they are about to cross, as if "ya! we could die today!"
Seriously, I could listen to her voice all day long. She could read a cereal box to me and I'd be fine with it.
The mix between english, german and swiss german 😂
Hottttt
5% Swiss xd
Awesome Swiss Airlines vídeo, a Great Job at cockpit for all the crews. A hug❤
00:46 She about jumps out of the seat!!!!
It should be 0:47
PIC: "There's the airport, I'll fly it in visually..." ATC: "Swiss 64 heavy, get your ass back on course."
Thèse type of videos..... make you feel confident taking planes as normal passenger ! Well done !
The way the fo corrected the captain for putting +1000 on the dial instead of -1000ft showed to me what a professional she is. Would love to see her start a channel when she has gained her 4 bars. ❤
captain and FO literally do the same things. Other than a few limited approaches that demand a captain fly them they usually switch roles as pilot flying and pilot monitoring, thus both do the same thing other than a limited amount of items in the pre flight checklist.
These two work great as a team and keep each other correct even when mistakes where made.
Stefan McShane
No question. I really enjoy this crew. Outstanding CRM, plus you can tell they love flying. I’m curious if either fly Sailplanes on off time?
These two again? They are obviously talented pilots, but what I really enjoy is their cool Swiss-German conversation/accent (with an occasional pigeon English thrown in for good measure). ‘Tree touzent feyt- cero cix cero. ‘
Im sure an unexpected tcas alert would make anyone jump like that, and frighten anyone , obviously she is of a timid nature, but she was able to handle it , so all well that ends well, shes concientous, heard tcas and immediately knew it was serious hence the fright she got, proves she knows what shes doing
Classic startle effect, similar happened with me at DXB. TA announcement is actually quite loud. Well done, crew!
the first officer's reaction when the TCAS warning went off is priceless, well that was her 1st experience with the TCAS
She almost jumped out of her seat
@@TheRscott903 Hope she packed clean underwear in her overnight bag!
It's a very natural reaction i'd say.
Fantastic relationship between the pilots.
This is the best crew ever imo
Total trust, perfect team work
You really think so, despite the number of 'mistakes/errors/deviations' they made in the footage?
I'm thinking too, you don't actually know enough about what was occurring in the footage, to understand what mistakes were made?
This is the realist flight video there is. I come back and watch a lot. The co-piliot was stunned
The co-pilot was “stunned”? You reckon. Within two seconds she was reacting completely by the book.
“Vertical speed -1000”
She: “oh you’ve entered +1000”
This girl saved the day 👍
why such negative comments...they worked well together
Their voices are very soothing to hear.
Confessing their mistakes is why they are good pilots. Good camaraderie between the two.
I totally agree.
Sehr gut gemacht

Look at her reaction when she heard TRAFFIC WARNINGS.. that’s so natural for anybody.
I think it was her first TCAS alert, her scared reaction says all, but is a nice reaction and control of the situation, the captain sounded very relaxed
I like the reaction of the first officer when TRAFFIC is playing!Very reactive,very good job
Have watched this often- great Captain and FO. Comments around her TCAS response are ignorant
She reacted perfectly and professionally
Two fine pilots. Great team work. 👏
The FO dealt with that startle very admirably. I mean all of a sudden you go from routine flight and then instant collision alert!
Love that 1st officer.... she ran that flight deck excellently.
Leave her alone. Those drums scared the shit out of me too.
These are the exact type of pilots that I dream of having. What a team!
Hello. Lots of work going on inside the flightdeck. Thank you for letting us visit you both (safely).
The captain makes several “ mistakes” here picked up and corrected by the first officer.well done madam!
I agree....she did a great job correcting him on critical switches....and her TCAS response was excellent
When TCAS when off, I though she was going to jump out of her seat. So cool. I love this channel
Me too ! You know damn well she piddled a bit in her panties :-)
Hard to believe it's been 5 years. I don't know how many times I have watched this. I seem to rediscover it from time to time.
