Hi guys! I have already posted a new video on our second aviation channel. Follow the link and leave your opinion in the comments under the video, your support is very important. So, welcome aboard! ua-cam.com/video/JpXHB8fEo6M/v-deo.html
Every NetJets pilot I've ever met on the ramp has always been courteous and professional and know how to fly their aircraft. Not surprised these guys acted in the same cool and professional manner. way to go guys!
Better to ask than to assume. Approach has no idea what's going on in the cockpit; maybe they have a checklist to run through before landing, or they need to burn fuel.
They ask for fuel in hours to know how long they can hold if a weather situation occurs as well. There’s no point in dealing with their cracked windscreen if they’re going to run out of gas.
Rather do that then a rapid depressurization. A minor crack could be a hint of something major. Flying is one of the last, if not only, means of travel where safety is important. Cars are dangerous but we use them everyday, if a plane crash with deaths happens with rapid depressurization like the Comet or DC-10, or Japan Air 123, then air travel takes a big hit.
@@Pissedoffdetective Text can be misinterpreted. I see that you are referring to the clickbait nature of the title, which is common on UA-cam, or media in general. Sorry for be illiterate.
When I worked for the aviation department of a major oil company, one of their Fokker turboprops hit a goose taking off. It dented the radome and went through the co-pilot's windshield. The captain thought he was dead. Turned out he was knocked out and covered with the goose's blood and pieces of the windshield. Obviously very chaotic in the cockpit until they landed.
Not really. The severity of the issue is associate with it being inner, or outer pane of the glass; running the fingernail across the glass will tell you which portion is damaged.
if this clip is recent at all then this was some of the busiest traffic Las vegas has worked in a long time with the F1 race and thanksgiving traffic it could severely disrupt everything if they go first without needing it.
@@seanoswa1829 it was unprofessional and against procedure. The initial controller upon hearing about the window cracked should have immediately declared an emergency for the pilot and given priority service and coordinate with the tracon. THEN the approach controller should have followed normal protocol which means NEVER asking if an emergency aircraft can accept a delay and then providing priority service. A cracked windshield is absolutely an emergency scenario
The aircraft declared an emergency. Part of the protocol is to know fuel remaining (in pounds or hours/minutes) and souls on board. The controllers don't try to guess whether or not the emergency is dire enough to get that info - they just get it. In this case, if that cracked windshield blows out and injures a pilot at a critical phase of flight, and the aircraft crashes, they need to know how many people they are trying to pull out of the wreckage.
I assume it has to be FAA thing then. Because on the few recorded incidents you'll find from EASA space I never heard a controller ask those questions.@@markeewell
@@Quotenwagnerianer They absolutely ask those questions. You have an emergency aircraft with the potential spillage of thousands of pounds of jet fuel, this is information that is absolutely need to know
@@Quotenwagnerianer It's international standard - also in Europe. When you didn't hear it you didn't listen or the portion had been cut out of the video.

ExecJet: "Our windshield is broken." Approach: "Hey, can we give you some delay vectors?" Dude...

Very professionally handled by all 👌🏾
Calm, cool, collected. Compare that to the AA out of Miami a few weeks back.
Thank you for also including animation of the landing, taxi and conclusion. Gives the video a good closure.
Thx
Great videos but could we have longer to read and digest the prologue?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You mean... A minor crack forced a precautionary decent.
Rather do that then a rapid depressurization.

@@trilight3597 And weren't they cleared (or instructed to go to) 40,000? At that height, a minor crack could become major, could it not?
@trilight3597 Yet another illiterate missing the point. Look at the title of the vid.

Kinda rude that controller was to suggest to join the queue.

Considering he didn't declare an emergency until they were headed back to Henderson it didn't seem like they were in that big of a hurry.

What is it with U.S. controllers always asking for Souls on board and Fuel remaining? That's totally not necessarry for a cracked windshield...

International sometimes says persons, but it's SOP on any aircraft declaring an emergency.
