I’m a retired ATC working 32 years at busy airports, and worked hundreds of emergencies. This woman is absolutely incredible. Most pilots are great to work with and almost always have a very professional voice, even with bad emergencies. I can tell you that this young lady is a notch above anyone that I ever worked.
She was truly amazing. A Real Hero ! God Bless her. : )
She should be a notch above anyone. That "young lady" was a former US Navy fighter pilot, Lt. Cmdr. Tammie Jo Shults. Her co-pilot was a former USAF veteran of Iraq War. I would consider them both a notch above anyone.
@@badwolf7367 Figures. I was an Air Traffic Controller 1st Class in the Navy with 12 years. Hell, I probably talked to her before. :)
not a young lady, old USAF vet apparently and great pilot.
@@corpsecoder_nw6746 US Navy actually. Flew The F-18 Hornet.
“It’s not on fire, but part of it’s missing”. Cool as a cucumber, professional, accurate.
So you were expecting her to be hysterical and inaccurate??? Kinda weird.
@@puma.will.pounce7590 I think he was just stating a fact,
More like "um, part of, what do you call it, the go thingy, it's missing and someone went out."
I am a retired BA 777 commander and to hear the R/T conversation sent shivers down my spine. How would I have managed that situation? Don't know but by God she was magnificent.
Wow amazing. Did you retire on the 777?
The flight crew are former military pilots, shes Navy, co Air Force.
Absolutely. Couldn't agree more.
I am beyond impressed 😀
Did she include the first officer into her decision-making, I wonder? I only ask, because the report does not document communication between them...
Boy, the air traffic controller was top notch also
My neighbor is an air traffic controller and never seems the least bit stressed so I ask him about, he said it is all in the attitude you take, he said the way he looks at it is a video game, if the dots touch they lose. :)
@@MrWildbill 😂
@@MrWildbill i disagree. controller talks too much. should stick with short clear ins
tructions.
during training before becoming full atc, you're given a lot of scenarios including emergency landing with lots of traffic in approach and aerodrome
@@frankgallagher5786 he had everything on deck for her tho
Max RESPECT for all these professionals involved. These are the heroes.
It's very chilling when you hear "there's a hole in the side of the aircraft... and someone went out." Most people saying that in real-time would not have been able to keep calm and finish the task on-point. Tragic loss, but good work by the pilot and ATC.
Piots, military and civil, generally remain very calm during an incident. It's hammered into you from your first day of training that your first priority is to fly the plane. Listen to cockpit recordings of crashing planes, the pilots are calmly trying to correct the situation until the very end.
@@goldwinger5434 ... pretty much the same with any emergency management situation. The idea is to maintain focus on the task so the outcome will be better than doing nothing. The only thing you can do wrong is panic... the rest will be at least a little better, and maybe far better.
@@goldwinger5434 - How do you know the pilots are calm?
@@puma.will.pounce7590 they only sound calm. Heart rate is probably 3 times over the normal
@@puma.will.pounce7590 1) You can hear it in their voices 2) I'm a pilot.
Tammi Jo
She's my neighbor and goes to my church First Baptist Church she was a Naval Aviator and she was VERY good with the F18
She's pure class all around
pure class, you can tell from this video!
give her a hug from a guy across the pond and say great job
wonderful to hear, sounds like God had her in the right place at the right time with the right training. I would trust her as my pilot any day.
@@lw216316 So how does this work then ? God allows the engine to explode, killing a passenger, but all is OK because he has the pilot in the right place to safely land the plane. How about if this god of yours (all knowing, all powerful, all good) just steps in ahead of the problem and the engine doesn't explode in the first place ? Thanking god for saving the plane when he (she ?) was responsible for causing the situation is a bit rich !!
belittling someones religion is childish. Perhaps you should leave people's beliefs to them, and troll another topic.
The pilot was calmer then the air traffic controllers. I hope she gets a medal.
Why the hell would she get a medal? She made a landing with one engine. Every commercial pilot can do that as well as remain calm.
Xeldinn the reason I said she deserved a medal because she was told a passenger went out the window. The information was incorrect and unfortunately the lady died, but she maintained herself under pressure. Yes an engine went out and there damage to the plane causing the cabin to lose pressure. So yes pilots do this all the time and they should be commended as well. However this story is about how this pilot.
Donald Flesher I remember that flight it was in the late 80s. Several people lost their lives during that tragedy. I’m not understanding what is wrong with wanting to recognize her doing her job well. It is something she does every day sure! Something she trained for most of her career of course. This wasn’t some training exercise that she landed. People in the service industry don’t get enough recognition for when they do their job well. Is me are people making it seem like she just talked on the radio and didn’t pilot the plane? Are all y’all pilots for commercial airliners and didn’t get recognition for a job well done?
Donald Flesher I mean she did saved everyone else on that accident so I will call her a hero just like Sully
Donald Flesher Yeah I know but she did a great job though
She dealt with this like she had a flat tire while driving her car. Just amazing and unbelievable calm.
Norm Bermudez - Considering that this wasn't a serious emergency and she wasn't even flying the plane, yeah, she did an average job.
puma.will. pounce an engine failure with injuries is DEFINITELY as serious as it gets, and in emergencies the whole pilot flying/pilot monitoring thing can go out of the window. Considering her experience with military aircraft I wouldn’t be surprised if she took over radio and control while the other pilot managed their route and called company
@@SketchRC - Yeah, it's so serious that the pilot took her sweet time landing and requested a "long final" approach to delay medical care. What does "military experience" have to do with anything?
puma.will. pounce ok 1) don’t be rude, im trying to teach you something lol. And she took her time because there’s a huge adrenaline dump when an emergency happens, so you want to collect yourself and make sure you don’t do something that gets more people killed. It’s easy to make fast, bad decisions, so taking your time is exactly what needs to happen. That said, she diverted to a nearby airport, so she didn’t take all the time in the world either. And military experience is valuable bc she was probably used to being pilot in command while also managing radios, plus military pilots are used to dealing with high-stress situations like that, since that’s typically most of what they do when on deployment.
puma.will. pounce oh, and long finals are typically requested so you make sure you nail the landing on the first try, which is especially important when you’re single engine w damage and the aircraft probably isn’t handling like it’s supposed to. That said, it looks like she took a 10 mile final, which only takes a 737 about 4 minutes, so not a lot of time was added there.
Absolutely first class pilots and ATC don’t get the recognition they deserve instead we worship football players.
F**k a football player

Never forget this hatred from them.

@@bp30656 He'll yeah.
@@Ebikelover Eggactly
I hope these haters and sport are doomed.
You could hear she is choosing not the realise what happened and choosing to stay calm by focusing on the important part. It clearly shows in her voice. Damn she is top notch. Givem her a massive pay raise.
I'd submit that she fully realized what happened. She's not stupid or scared. She is a professional who understands that her primary goal now is to get that damaged aircraft on the ground ASAP, ensuring the safety of the other passengers and crew. Period.
I can't even imagine.
Her: " I've got a hole in the plane... Request to land please... Thank you" in her calm tone
Me: "MAY DAY MAY DAY.. I'M COMING IN HOT... WE GOT PROBLEMS MAN.. EVERYBODY SHUT UP....I'M LANDING ON THE FREEWAY"
TheInternetIsYours ...yup. me too 😄
TheInternetIsYours lol that would be me as well 😂😂😂
In situations like this most pilots revert to their training. Of which they have a lot. They have memorized checklists of actions to take anytime there is an emergency.
Pilots don't think like that though. Losing an engine in a multi engine plane is a pan-pan at best. I'd rather have that happen than lose the brakes in my car.
Nice....
Tremendous respect for the pilot. She's the best.
OMG... tears here for the incredible handling both by pilot and staff and, especially the ground controller whose message was as clear as clear can be, “ You have all my attention and everything is being done to bring you in safely !!’
This is the kind of person you want to put your trust in when flying
wow this pilot is amazing...GOOD JOB and thank you for saving all these people
She was just doing her job as any commercial pilot would. Besides, losing an engine isn't the end of the world (as long as no other systems are damaged) They have trained numerous times for that kind of situation and the plane can fly just fine with one operable engine.
Xeldinn Says the airplane expert of UA-cam.
HeavyMetalMech Way to downplay the situation. I'm sure you would have done the exact same thing in the exact same manner huh? Douchebag
There isn't a pilot alive that wouldn't have landed that plane. A plane functions fine on one engine. In your desperate attempt to find a woman hero, I think you are up playing the situation don't you think. I think it is tacky for the media to play her up as a hero, especially since a woman died on that flight. If a man was flying that plane, the focus of the story would be Southwest airlines defective plane with no mention of the pilot.
@@xeldinn86 This kind of explosive engine failure has certainly been close to the end of the world. And it was for this one woman killed.
Very professional Pilot & Air Traffic Controller. Kudos to both!
hey, the Lady had the much more difficut part to do! The honour is hers. And she was even more quiet than the guy.
Nova Morf You apparently have no idea how stressful it is for an air traffic controller to guide a damaged plane to safety. They both performed admirably.
You can listen to the whole flight, this is only a brief snippet. There is much more conversation on that one. The pilot was superb, calmness is a pilots friend.
Chances are she was the 1st officer, who usually does the radio while the captain takes control. This is a 2 pilot aircraft, recall. @@miragesmack007
She was the captain. She was a former FA-18 pilot. She demonstrated the same professionalism as Capt Sully.
I admire the way those involved in getting the plane down safely focused on what was important and treated each other with the greatest respect and trust. Well done and thank you!
And at the very end of the comms with the tower she says "Thankyou guys for your help"...... I think this is most telling as it shows the humbleness of a professional that understands that in an emergency situation, the outcome is the result of what ALL the players do...... no one person alone can pull it off.
Robert Sababady i
Absolutely inspiring. Even when she asked for medical, there was a hint of emotion showing her care but she never wavered.
Kudos to the "Ice Queen Captain" she had it totally together just who you want to be up front in an emergency well done!
Total professionalism!! First class employees who should be rewarded for their abilities and their actions!!
That pilot was so cool headed. She knew exactly what she had, namely a great cabin crew. With an accurate status of the cabin, she was able to concentrate on flying the airplane, declare the emergency with tower and request exactly what she needed. Amazing!!!
Amazing job by the pilot and flight control center! My deepest condolences to the woman’s family who lost her life.
Stacey Shaffer what was her name i asked 1989
What was her name
Whaaaat was her nammme
Whhhat was it. Iremember somexxxmx cm mlg cm
My heart goes out to the pilot and the victim.
The pilot is a former fighter pilot so she knows how to stay calm.
Mmmm actually the fighter pilot was the first officer, not the captain.
@@jimmylei6798 Rumor has it, the first officer is indeed a pilot as well.
Jimmy Lei no, the captain was Tammie Jo Shults, a former United States Navy F18 pilot, and the FO was Darren Ellisor, a former USAF pilot (Boeing E-3 Sentry).
uhhh...
@@jimmylei6798 Your ignorance is on another level
She was a Navy F-18 pilot! Times like this, be thankful your pilot is ex-military...this shows the experience and the calmness that most ex-military pilots have...every time I've gotten on a plane I pray that my pilot is military trained...
Yeah, ya don't see too many tomboys in the military or the airlines. I can't remember having a female captain on any flight I've been on.
bblando65 Roger that. Just like Sully.
Maxx Fordham! .... A tomboy? Showing characteristics of a man? Wow!
I agree that military pilots are very well trained for stress, but you should know that the pilots that I fly with from a civilian background are typically no different. What makes both sets of pilots good at handling stress is that they are used to it, and have an amazing knack at getting the situation back to normal as quickly as they can. This isn't just a military trait... It's from natural ability, training, and experience.
Ladywood2, yes, doing a job that is usually just done by men might be a good example. Nothing's wrong with that; it jut fits that part of the bill. "WOWWW!"
God, she is amazing.
Billy Murph fake post --- and you are dumb as fck, a FILTHY LITTLE DRAMA QUEEN... please don't get a pilots' license... IDIOT!
found the white knight
Because she did her job just as any other commercial pilot would? Landing a plane with one engine ,that they train, for that any commercial airline pilot can?
She was in the airforce i sure hope shes amazing!
Billy Murphy yes
I admire the captain who still manages to speak calmly even in the midst of an emergency...Kudos!
Pilot and Controller were so Professional during this Emergency. Sorry to hear one person lost their life.
The front two seats are the best place to sit in an airliner. When something goes wrong, like an engine failure, the only thing the people in the back can do is scream. Advantage - Pilots!
Pilots are trained this way, to remain calm whatever happens
What a legend
No they are not trained that way. I don't recall any training in my time. It is having the right stuff, pardon the pun but it is true!
@@larmar Aren't military pilots trained to remain calm no matter what happens? Since she apparently flew fighters, I would think she was former military as not too many civilians get to fly fighters.
@@xo2quilt It would be correct to say "military pilots are trained...", but it's not correct to say -- as Waylith did -- the more general "pilots are trained..."
Yes but still not many can be so calm
Talk about grace under fire! She sounds peaceful. Like her trust is anchored.
donna jean...anchored in Jesus....christian lady
yes it is.
Why did Jesus let the plane explode?
C S... So that you would ask
Cant' trust in HIM unless there's some bumps in life for us to run to him, right?
"Um, you said there was a hole and someone went out?" The ATC sounded much more panicked then the pilot!
Aviation
Navigation
Communication
In that order, passenger welfare not pilots concern, flight crews job to assist passenger's, pilots job, 1)fly plane 2)navigate plane 3)communicate with ATC and emergency services,
Big round of applause for that pilot and aircrew, brilliant outcome and a calm and collected pilot
Professionalism both ends ATC were brilliant to give pilots whatever they wanted nearly sure if he could reach out and physically help the craft he would have he was just caught in the moment adrenaline pumping..praise to the female pilot cool as you like!!
She was a militar pilot. F-18. She knows how to behave.
@Stimpy&Ren , land the plane first, then worry about stuff that's already happened.
Yeah I was pretty disappointed to hear her take that long to tell ground control someone was ejected wow! Not cool
She was calm and in control. What a great pilot. The controller was right on the money, too, making sure the pilot had everything she needed for her approach and landing. It was her airspace.
We had just left Philly for Miami as this flight was landing. While all the passengers on board our flight had no knowledge of the emergency, the pilot of the emergency plane made a calm, cool, professional landing under circumstances that must have been very stressful. You can’t hear any stress in her communication with the airport. She and her crew saved lives by their quick assessment, decisive actions and calm deportment.
Great pilot! Sorry to hear about the tragic death of a passenger. Thoughts/prayers to family/friends
Pilot you are the greatest in such critical situation! Thank you
ANd the Air Traffic Controller too!
That's what I was going to say. They all did great.
R. Lara-Moore says:
"ANd the Air Traffic Controller too!"

Yet, they are underpaid and over worked. (also the pilots)
"Air traffic controllers are dangerously overworked"

Excerpt,
"in 1981 following a strike that was declared illegal and broken by the Reagan Administration..."
Perfect professionalism all the way, in the aircraft as well as on the ground.
"I'm sorry you said there's a hole and somebody went out?"
I see what you did there 🧐🤦♂️
"No, it's not on fire but part of it's missing." Wow, not what you want to hear your pilot say. Credit to all, brilliant.
calm and focus in that moment is crucial, great Job
Wow! I know she was trained for emergencies (Go Navy!), but those are nerves of steel. Well done!
“Thanks guys for the help” Wow. Amazing. Great job captain Shults! 👏
That’s one calm collected person in control in the the worst possible situation.
Us military vet.
Proud of my fellow service member
Kudos maam
Courage is not absence of fear, but action in the face of fear!
Well done, to both the pilot and air traffic controller. These two are the reason we like GOOD, rather than adequate. Condolences to the family of the woman whose life was lost. And to the passengers who kept her from being sucked out of the plane, you too deserve thanks. It appears ALL who were involved acted admirably.
True professionals that were unshakable in the face of an emergency! Unbelievable.
Even better: BELIEVABLE.
Believable; those are procedures honed to perfection over decades.
So calm. God bless her. True hero...
The controller had an oh sh!t moment when he was told a pax got sucked out.
I know several retired Air Force fighter pilots and most of them fly for Southwest and are based here in Phoenix. They are all great pilots and have so much experience. Love flying with Southwest
That women was calm. She knew what was riding on this...ugh bless her
Thank you for your service Mam! ❤️
Hoorah!
Awesome female pilot! She is a role model for future aviators.
Cobb Knobbler Because women get a bad rap that they are always hysterical and unreliable under pressure, that's why.
Some Guy On You Tube any male pilot would have been able to do the same. Every airline pilot must be able to land a plane with an engine failure.
Cobb Knobbler shut the "F" up!
Woman pilots are rare, that's all, dope. Your lucky we don't question whether the initial engine problem was her fault.
Oh, you see ,it can get worse.
She did her job, and did it well. That's why she got to be a Captain. All professional pilots are trained to deal with emergencies, fortunately only a few ever have to put that training to the ultimate test.
loser The problem I see with that is that by putting her on a pedestal for doing something anyone in her profession can do is basically saying she's special because she's a woman. Isn't the goal of feminism to make everyone equal?
You don't get to pilot a platform like that without being a pro ... this woman was totally in control... good job.
With 100plus lives at stake, engine gone and God knows what else, blood in the cabin, screaming passengers, upset flight attendants, traffic in the air, insufficient info, uncertain time horizons, unknown ac integrity ... and the list goes on. This is NOT your Sunday afternoon grasshopper pilot. I spent a lot of time in the very, very light infantry being delivered and extricated from some weird places and in some cases under fire, with blood in the cabin and I can tell you that this woman is nothing short of extraordinary. I salute you, Ma'am
God bless that woman! If that were me I'd go home and freak out but she was absolutely flawless!
I'm sure she freaked out after she went home. But while on the job, she did her job!
What if she didn't do her job?
Would she get fired for letting the plane fall down and killing everyone ??
Kalin well, she'd be dead too...so...
What MSM will not / refuses to tell you is that she credits her calm courage with her deep, Christian faith. NOPE! Never hear it on the so-called news!!
twodogs716 lmao thats not relevant...btw fox is definitely a great source for news,definitely not a shit tone of far right propaganda.
She did amazing!!
hmmm. No.
toscodav : hmmm Yes.
Yes, an incredibly calm, collected and professional Pilot. A great job.
Gryff Longprong you just WROTE using bad grammar. Lol
Grace under pressure. Amazing. So professional.
I liked the control tower sense of urgency. you can see he weas flexible and really trying to help. ive heard control tower guys who are cold and just give information. this guy was awesome. great pilot. BRAVO!
In 1979 I was on a Braniff 747 "flying colors" flight to Germany from Boston. I was just 10 and this was my first flight. We left Boston just as the sun was starting to set, sky was crystal clear. I was in a seat just behind the left wing and was in awe of the view. 45 mins after takeoff the inside engine of the wing I was looking at exploded. I saw large pieces of it fly off and flames poured out of it for just a few seconds. Needless to say I was scared.
The pilot turned the plane back for Boston without saying anything and 1 hour after the explosion I saw land and the pilot announced we were returning to Boston. It was a hard landing but everyone was safe. We stayed at a hotel that night and left the next night at like 10 PM on the SAME plane that had been repaired... I closed the blind the entire flight to Germany.
Weird thing is, I would think there would be a report of this, even though it was so many years ago. Yes no one was injured, but it would just be cool to see the report.
ATC: "uhm I'm sorry, you said there was a hole and somebody went out?"
You could hear him sweating
yeah, they took a stroll to look around.
He immediately locked both of their attention back to the task at hand, that being getting the plane and passengers safely onto the runway.
The pause in the original recording was so much more intense.
I obviously hope to never be on a flight with an IFE, but with that said: If that day were to happen, I hope to have someone with her professionalism at the helm.
She is an absolute credit to the profession.
I don’t want to forget the lady that died that day. I know it’s been a year but prayers will still help. I’m praying for you all.
I don't think prayers will help, they never have before!
Believing in god in 2020 is a mental illness.
Sorry but, how exactly do prayers help?
“No it’s not on fire” she just answered that like a regular question.
She understands the "no matter what happens... FLY the plane" Role model for any pilot, job well done 👍🏻
U got it
Thank you, Lady pilot.
Absolutely amazing job by this pilot keeping her wits about her during what I can only assume was an extremely chaotic and unnerving situation. This tape and her actions should be used in any and all future training courses going forward. Her actions were nothing short of heroic! Again....fantastic job Captain!!!
Well, it's not the first time a plane has lost an engine. Pilots are trained for this and planes can fly with one engine, nothing new or surprising, that's how they have been designed.
@@JD-sd1hl They are actually designed so that in an absolute worst case scenerio the whole engine can shear right off of the wing without breaking the wing.
The fan blades are NOT supposed to be able to escape the titanium shell around the engine though, they are supposed to get ejected out the back in the event of failure, but look what happened anyways.
p51mustang24 assuming they’re properly built that’s true.
Heart goes out to family who list wife and mother.
Yeah, #metoo.
LOST.
What about it, Mike?
WOW! What a competent pilot under such grave circumstances. Such a good example of level headedness and courage.
Unreal how calm the pilot is in communicating with the tower and describing the major damage the plane took
The pilot was amazing. You'd think she was talking to her friends over a cup of coffee. So calm. And the Air Traffic Controller was great as well. He took control of the situation and made sure the distressed plane had absolute top priority. He also trusted that the pilot was in total control of the aircraft. I love the way he said "I'm sure he'll pull of if you need to go right in." Fantastic job to all involved.
Amazing Pilot.. Cool and collect as ICE!!!!!!!! Prayers to all the Passengers and Family members effected.....God Speed!!!
I think this is a fine example of what kind of people they want flying a plane...lol Great job in this landing under difficult circumstances.
"Is your plane on fire"
"No, it's not on fire but part of it is missing"
How can anyone say that sentence so calmly and professionally. She's an amazing pilot.
Panicking will do nothing but slow your response time, and cloud your thought processes.
That controller was panicking WAY more than she way.
The controller probably never had two MIGs on his tail like this pilot likely did from time to time flying for the USAF
Good job pilot! She is a hero
Your standard for heroes is very low.
Xeldinn how?
Yeah no offence but the plane could fly fine with one engine, all she did was declare an emergency and land at the nearest airport same thing any pilot would do following procedure. The real hero/heroes are the people who rushed after the woman who got sucked out and pulled her back in risking their life's in an attempt to save hers.
Well put!
Awesome professionalism. Next time I'm having a bad day, I'm making a point to think about that pilot's calming voice.
she WAS AMAZING. just AMAZING.
Digitalbumpin dear troll, Have a great day.
She WAS flying it, stupid bumped-head moron.
Julia, I was supporting your point against this troll, except that I felt like being direct instead of... trying to use reverse psychology, or... cheerful sarcasm, or... whatever you were doing. I don't have a problem with your approach to this troll, but I wanted to approach him too, but in a different way (just like I don't tell cops who had harassed me for some dumb reason to have a nice day; there's no way I can mean it, and they might be too stupid to get my sarcasm). Hopefully you get that while you and I handle trolls like this idiot differently, we're ultimately on the same team.
thank you -- was unclear to me who that was directed towards.
Ha, Julia! How could it not have been totally obvious, since dumb head-bumped is the one who made the false claim of "She wasn't flying the plane," but you weren't?
Omg! What a pilot! I would have been freaking the hell out! ( I guess that's why I'm not a pilot) and the ATC man, complete professional all the way. I've heard that the entire crew on that plane were very calm and did everything imaginable to keep everyone on board calm and not letting chaos take over the situation. These people are true heros!
The woman was pulled back in by passengers and FA's but was injured beyond saving
Congratulations to the pilot for landing the craft. A well trained pilot's training and muscle memory will take over to save themselves, their crew, and passengers. It's a great deed within itself to land a craft in such condition let alone to have the knowledge that it's your responsibility for the safety of those on your aircraft. While it may not be the same as putting oneself in harms way as she did while being in the military. One can admire her for landing the craft. While It may not meet everyone's definition of heroism I would call her a hero for her ability to land the craft and admire her for the achievement.
Prayers for the family and friends of Jennifer Riordan who lost her life when the uncontained engine failure caused a sudden decompression of the cabin.
Wow
She was amazing. Cool and calm. Tower was more shook up than she was. Everyone did a great job.
599 people disliked that this plane was calmly landed by pilot after engine exploded.
Or maybe they are just mad to constantly be fed slideshows on a VIDEO PLATFORM!
@@nic12344 What did you expect? GoPro footage of the cockpit?
That was impressive. Good work both of them.
Wow she is the coolest - she's far calmer than the controller - extremely good training and cool as a cucumber individual - she really should get some sort of recognition - Thanks for saving the plane Ma'am.
The coolest pilot! Right Stuff all the way!
Now that's the pilot I want for my next flight!
Wow what a star!! Used to fly fighter jets. what a cool demeanor.
The pilot is worthy of an ASMR video of how not to crash a plane
Very professional pilot. RIP to the lady who died and respect to those that tried to save her, it must have been chaos in that cabin.
Great job
Man I have respect pilots, you’re veins flow coolant in a crisis.
A professional at their best.
Superb professionalism and focus - absolute nerves of steel! Well done !
Why is this mentioned? One is supposed to stay calm during any emergency. If anything, becoming calmer than you started may aid in solving the emergency. All should stay calm during emergencies. It is shameful how many people go into a screaming panic during an emergency.
My goodness. If this is the actual recording, this pilot is amazing. Her composure is unlikely paralleled by many others.
Hawg Dawg She is a former military pilot
With that kind of calm, under these types of circumstances, I bet she could fly any combat mission assigned to her.
+Digitalbumpkin: Landing with one engine on a 2-engine plane is not quite standard. You sure proved you're a "bumpkin" (even if you can't 'keyboard' it). Maybe take that digit outta yer bump.
If my daughter had been the pilot I would've gone ahead and jumped out the broken window Hahahahaha ha...
Wow, can I request that pilot on my trip from New Jersey to California. I don't think anything can get her frazzled.
Nicely done for the pilot, crew and ATC... condolences to the family who had a loss....
Excellent 👍 And Thank you for your service young lady 👍
This is why I listen to the safety briefings no matter how many times I fly.
