@@bilyonarelifestile2226 Remember selection bias. You don't hear about the (many, many, many) flights that go "we might have to declare an emergency but we aren’t gonna yet" followed by... _not_ having to declare an emergency.
Finally an American pilot who declared an official MAYDAY x 3 after an engine out event. Adding emergency to the call-sign is not an official way of declaring emergency my dear colleagues..
I always get a little anxious when I hear something like: "Yeah, ehm, departure, ehm, we would, ehm, maybe like to, ehm, declare an, ehm, emergency at this point [callsign]" and then the pilots get the additional workload with the standard ATC reply: "Sorry, say again?"😅
If you cut out the part where the pilot says "mayday" and relaying souls/fuel, you literally could not tell it's an emergency with how chill all these dudes are
Strong work. Did maintenance ever figure out what happened with the engine? Glad he and his colleague made it back safe, and he did a great job. If it was going to happen, that seemed to be the right altitude and location for it to happen, so I'm glad everything went their way aside from the inconvenience.
I have nothing to do with aviation and am just an appreciative outsider of pilots' and ATC professionalism via channels such as this, but 4:04, "next controller has all your information" - ATC reducing the need for repetitive communications and letting crew fly the emergency aircraft. Take a bow sir, and hopefully some other controllers may just follow your lead.
At 3:31, when ATC clarified altitude was not at the pilot's discretion, he mentioned "maintain 6000 for the rocks." What are "the rocks" in this context?
Sounds like both the pilot and the ATCs were recently trained in emergency communications. Which is a good thing. Pilot saying mayday 3 times in a very good and very procedural way, ATC relayed fuel and souls to next controller and explains this to the pilots, no extra request for "fuel in pounds please", clear and slow comms. The "Negative negative" on the "no, altitude is not your discretion" part perfect as it should be - repeating the important words on those kind transmissions. This was textbook perfect (from my armchair perspective🥲).
I was on this flight, it was so smooth we didn't even know they shut down the engine.
The most relaxed captain in a MAYDAY situation I ever heard.
👍😁
Agreed. Almost sounds cheerful, even. Kudos to the captain for keeping his cool.
lmao guy sounds like i do when theres a power outage in my area and i cant work and its not my fault
“wE migHt haVe tO deClare an emergency but we aren’t gonna yet” is the usual

Wow. Hats off. Would love to have an emergency with these guys again. 10/10 highly recommend
👍👍👍
Fantastic communication between them and very well handled emergency. Hats off

This is the voice of one of my best friends who is a FO at Frontier. Please let me know if you have any questions for him!
How different is the real life control on a single engine Mayday landing versus the simulator?
@@lexustech48 He said it's not much different.
What does he eat and who is his yoga instructor😅
Is he a dog, or more of a cat guy?

The most relaxed crew and ATC I've ever heard!!! Great job!!!

I've never declared a MAYDAY, but if I ever have to, I'd feel better with a "bud" or similar (4:45) from the controller.
Very impressive how cool these folks stay. Glad my friend in the comments below is home safe with not even a scary story to tell!
Great job by all!
👍👍🙂
This dude sounds cheery
Perfect communication. Should be used as an example for pilots and ATC.
The definition of professionalism!
a couple pro's talking to each other here....
Approach should've acknowledged Mayday from Frontier
At 3:31, when ATC clarified altitude was not at the pilot's discretion, he mentioned "maintain 6000 for the rocks." What are "the rocks" in this context?
Rugged mountains that look like "rocks" due to little vegetation.
Terrain
If he were in clouds (IMC) We'd refer to that as Cumulogranite!
@@consortiumxf Oh, Phoenix! Duh. I forget how much of a Martian landscape it is.
Really You had to ask that question
Severe VFR conditions ❤
everyones so chipper
Frontier or Frontier Flight 1191, which is it?😵💫

Textbook. Nice work!!! ATC + F9 + ARFF 🫡
