I sit in the cockpit on almost every flight. With hundreds of passengers. What I think you mean to say is having a child at the controls is unbelievable
to be honest the plane was the problem. it was new and already had problems and the pilot had nothing to to do with this. it is reckless making shitty comments when bring brainless about the situation
@@kingkat_ The behavior they should have learned was to get up and walk away from a deadly situation which they could not win for the sake of all aboard! You can't teach avionics to the learning impaired by idiot parents who thought that the children flying the plane was a cute and entertaining show for his twisted ego.
Absolute disrespect to the Chernobyl firefighters by burying the pilots' bodies next to them. Those pilots should have been dishonored by this incident.
to be honest its unbelievable that you guys are making shitty comments about the wrong stuff. The plane was highly new and had a new autopilot. 1994 was a common time for pilots to do this and its just to be a great dad and i get it that there was many souls on board but don't put so much disrespect on them because it wasn't even the pilots fault although when double gravity was in place and before that time the plane was banking the pilot shouldve just removed his kid and got into the seat
@@RavenBlades if he wanted to be a "good dad," he could've put his kids behind the wheel of a plane that's not literally in the middle of an active flight and carrying multiple passengers. "wasn't the pilot's fault" my ass lmao, never have i seen someone so desperate to absolve someone else's objective stupidity and culpability.
I’ve been invited to the 747-200 cockpit during flight when I was a child long time ago… but felt fear and discomfort and didn’t dare to touch anything…
This might come as a shock to many of you, but 40 years ago they would frequently leave the cockpit door open. It was common for people to watch the "goings on" during flight. And if you were an "airline brat" you had additional privileges. That's just how things were back then.
I remember that as well. However, pilots didn't bring their kids into the cockpit for aviation lessons and actually let the kids practice flying the freaking plane full of passengers.
@@marilynh. I can assure you they did. OK, maybe not "practice flying" but they would be able to push the controls for a bit. But someone was always in control of the aircraft.
no actually the most reckless and irresponsible decision ever made by a fight crew was captain van zanten's decision to take off without clearance at tenerife airport, causing the worst commercial aviation accident of all time by breaking every single rule that was laid out for him. this pilot was not operating on standards we have today so really the only thing he did wrong was let them touch the controls, which wasn't the nail in the coffin in this accident, it was the fact they were never taught aircraft recovery from a stall on the airbus
the kids never flew the plane. honestly this the the stupidest comment. Thinking that the crash happened purely on the pilot and not the flipping new computer malifunction
Wow, they built such a sophisticated computer system and were unaware that the autopilot partially disengages if human control for more than 30 seconds. Glad they discovered this.
Only around 5 seconds to react when the plane began doing unusual things. Get out of the seat NOW ... That could have saved everyone... but it would have taken a strict military mindset in the parent to have had it happen. Not the case here. Tragic for everyone.
Exactly, there just putting on confused faces waiting until its to late, moment stuff looked wierd he should i got those kids out ASAP, got back in his seat and started doing his job
@@theambientsojournband1530 the thing is even if they were, the pilot should have had the brain to stop it the moment he saw a change in the flight course...
I like the way this is so often listed as "100% the fault of having a kid at the controls." Absolutely, those children should NOT have been allowed near the controls. At all. Much less actually touching them. But there was the secondary matter here as well: the autopilot partially disconnected, which even the video says NONE of the pilots could have known about. And there is no warning it has done so, unlike the planes they were used to flying, which DID have an alarm for such an incident. It was a major flaw in how pilots were being trained on that particular plane.
@@adotintheshark4848 Huh? It should never have been disengaged in the first place-kids didn't also need to think they were turning the plane. At least the daughter had enough of a brain to be fearful. Son and Dad get Darwin awards
you guys havn't done your research have you kids. this crash happened in 1994 which a lot of the pilots in other air crafts did which is really common and this was the air crafts fault which handing the wheel to the kid but there was a first-hand pilot in control of the plane and the pilots were highly trained and first class making them having trust in their kid and guiding step by step on what they knew was right while the auto pilot was highly new and was anaware and untold to the pilots
@@tubecontributor3206sure but that still doesn't change the fact that the real reason for the crash were unprepared pilots. After the kids were out of the seats the pilots had a chance to save the plane.
what caused it ? An undisciplined cowboy pilot who thought it was OK to let his 15 year old fly a complex passenger plane while people are depending on him. I like how Aeroflot made the pilot's stupidity into a brilliant discovery of a flaw in the system. I guess the next time a 15yeqr old gets to fly the plane they will know what to do.
I was flying to a UN mission with a plane full of soldiers on a charter flight (Air Transat) in 1995. The captain invited some of us up to the cockpit at night to see the view from 10,000 metres, but I could never imagine him allowing anyone to sit in his seat and manipulate the controls. It's unthinkable! These Russian pilots screwed up in the worst way possible, and a lot of innocent people lost their lives. What an unbelievable tragedy.
The stupidest disaster. If you were entrusted with such an honor - to be among the first to master the newest plane, then you probably had to study hard - after all, you were paid huge money for this, sent abroad to master it. Honor, respect in the airline. And you had to study its manual from cover to cover. And how did it really turn out? The pilots did not know the most important things about the plane, they ruined the passengers, the plane, themselves and their children.
Why thank people for the superficial likes? It's meaningless.. I guess unless if it helps your esteem to pretend they like you personally any further than the sole comment you wrote lol
Everything aside I love how his reaction is not to make his son get up the moment it start to bank, dude, you are the only one who can fix this, how slow can you be?
it wasn't him, autopilot was set and the angel was set to normal which means he couldn't do anything while the first hand pilot could. you guys are really commenting shitty stuff without doing any research
Captain's misfortune....??? 😱. Seriously. He literally got his 15-year old to fly a commercial airplane. But let's blame Airbus for not having anticipated that could ever happen🥸
It is not reasonable to grant each country the right to establish its own law regarding the entry of non-crew members into the cockpit. This must be strictly prohibited by the International Civil Aviation Organization.
To be fair, he was never intended to be piloting it. The Autopilot was engaged and the pilots clearly weren't aware of the possibility to partially disengage it or the lack of conspicuous warnings in that event.
They recycle these actors a lot. One actor we've counted in about half of the episodes. He's the one that looks like David James Elliot but shorter. They just style their "hair" differently.
This one really gets me, because beyond letting the kids sit at the controls, they got control at one point and should have been able to keep it, but just didnt.
tbh it kinda bassically was because before the year 2000 pilots would occasinally bring their kid into the aircraft and let them just do a little steering
The thing that I always manage to forget when watching this particular case is that the entire incident happened within the span of like two minutes! I forget that these dramatizations didn't happen in real time. This whole thing must have been almost a blink of an eye in real life.
The pilot that brought his children there should be hold responsible, at the Ealing time he did not remove his son there to resolve the problem with his Co.pilot after beyond control. Why?
The plane was in such a deep fast dive no one could move. They switched seats as soon as they were physically able to do so. And yes, everyone holds the captain responsible. But it's not like they can punish a dead man.
@@abbycross90210 He hade plenty of time to switch place with the boy the moment he said that the plane was turning on its own. After it hade turned into a dive then they couldent move but there was more then enough time for them to swap placed before that happened.
Not the kids fault. A child cannot be blamed for the bad Judgement of Adults. I feel sorry for those kids and the families of the passengers. Today this would never happen due to 9/11.
9/11 just means the cockpit doors have locks on them now. That doesn't help when the captain himself unlocks it. It could still easily happen today. Captain who's highly experienced and thinks he's "above the law", who brings his kid in and lets him sit at the controls. Kid maybe accidentally presses the autopilot button and maybe the Captain's chatting with someone else (as the Captain did in this video) and doesn't hear the warning sound.
I would agree if this were a 8 year old or even a 10 year old but 15 nah by then he should definitly know not touch anything or play with the controls.
@@m3ga975 He didn't touch anything though. He just tried to steer hard (steering was allowed to his sister by the pilots), he just went harder (which unfortunately disconnected the autopilot partially). I'd say it's 100% the adults' fault here.
blud this was 1994, the best pilots had this thought in mind and could do this your judgement on this situation is mental. this happened in 1994 where this was purely common and this problem was of the plane and not the actually high class pilot
Back then they were. Not just their own kids, but any random little kid passenger. But touching anything in there, let alone FLYING THE PLANE is unheard of.
the moment the kid said "why is it turning" the captain should've told him to let go of the controls, get out of the chair, and tell the first officer to take over. regardless of knowing or not, he heard the kid tell him that the plane was turning. that was the pivotal moment where everything went wrong.
In TWA 800 they had collected a bunch of detritus in the recovery process and it filled a bin. They were getting ready to just pitch it as it was not relevant to solving what happened and someone pointed out it was all personal possessions of the victims of the crash and the families might want it. So they let the families go through it and they were all "thank you for doing this" for letting them take mementos of their loved ones.
I don't believe that an A310 cannot bank more than 45 degrees. That must be in autopilot. Disengage it and I guess the plane will bank up to 60 degrees before any Bank Angle warning or protection kicks in.

I have a question 🙋♀️ so let’s say that they safely pulled this airplane ✈️ to safety, does anyone know if they would’ve said anything? I don’t because they would’ve all been fired.
Gosh, you must've been really busy interviewing every western airline pilot in the world. I'm quite surprised that they all unashamedly admitted to having their kids in the cockpit. I wish I had your work ethic and insight. Is that kind of dedication to research common in Bulgaria?
@@The_Viking_Highlander such a weird response. I’ve lived in the states for the last 40y and was involved in the aviation industry in one way or another. I have personally seen exactly the same thing done by an American pilot. They are not letting the kid fly the plane - the auto pilot does. Obviously it is irresponsible and this accident proves it. All I meant is that such behavior was not unheard of on this side of the pond as well. Don’t be so quick to judge
@@thebulgarianguy8461 No dear, you assume that the documentary and anyone watching is Russophobic. So, you try and defend Russia by accusing the West of the same dumb aviation practices. I'm sure it has happened in most airlines, but imho your defensive attitude is unfoundedand unwarranted.
Can confirm. I flew* one when my father was a captain for a major US airline. I also would frequently fly jump seat or even "front seat" depending on the airline. Once they knew you were a pilot's kid, you were good. On smaller, commuter aircraft, I would frequently be the only passenger on board and they would almost always let me "fly" it. *I was 22, not 15 and I was in the right seat. But I was, technically, controlling the aircraft for an extended period of time.
I watch this chapter was very sad for the issue of the Auto Pilot disabled, inclusive after recover from the fall, was too late to save the Plane from crash in the Snow forest. From the majority of Air Crashes, the majority of deaths was in Russian Airplanes or planes located in Russia Region.
This accident is very infuriating because the captain should’ve never let his kids touch the control column💥😡 like if it was a simulated plane yes🛩️, but real one NO👿!
Actually, yes and no, as long as it's a private plane. Unless it's a recent change in the law, there's no age for flying as long as you have a license.
Remember kids never ever on play in cockpit that very dangerous play and please stay in cabin of airline seats with read books, play video games, watch movies and relax on sleep do not enter in cockpit thank you
Had they got the plane under control, would anyone had known the pilot had his kids flying the plane ? He would’ve been fired if they found out his son was flying
it was a bad descision to keep children in front of a plane's steering wheel with 74 souls on that flight. Still, the Dad just wanted be a great dad and I know he wasn't a great dad for accidently bringing his kids and other people to death on that flight. Still, he was really nice by giving them a first-person view of the aircraft but what he should have done was remove his son from the seat when he wasn't looking, I get that his son wants to become a pilot but there's a reason why there's an age restriction; and also inside a cockpit there are meant to be 4 or 3 seats. Why did 3 people come in when there were only 3-4 seats while 2 were taken. I do give my respects to the dad for being a grate dad and these comments are disgusting about dishonoring the pilots. A pilots job is not easy and I do understand that alot of pilots does istakes on purpose but this Dad was taking their kids abroad for the first time. None of the family has to be dishonored for this reason and I am truly and very sorry for all the souls aboard that flight who has died but don't give so much hate. The firsthand pilot didn't know that he was litreally going vertically up, as much as i do love technology, the computers went black about the navigation so don't go all on out towards the family
I do get that having his kids behind the wheel was reckless and shouldn't have told his kids to actually drive the plane but instead had his children as spectators instead of drivers and this problem could have been avoided without that descision
LORD HAVE MERCY!! This is purely mental. I cannot even imagine this actually happening Anywhere on earth. I am sorry to sound stereotypical, but some Russians are absolutely reckless. To allow a child to control a massive commercial airline is psychotic!!! Not to mention he doesn't even own this aircraft.
honestly this is absolutly hillarious to see such a reckless comment without doing any research and being brainless about the situation. this was common in 1994 and this was the fault of the new and highly automated computers in a new aircraft
@@RavenBlades Your brain is smoked. I don’t need to do research know that this fool is at fault for killing everyone on board. You should be embarrassed that you tried to blame the “new and highly automated computers” Let me explain something to you, because you’re obviously not very smart… What was common back then is meaningless; it’s called being considerate of the lives IN YOUR HANDS as the captain. When you say “it was common back then” You sound like you’re implying that there was 0 negligence on behalf of the human being operating the aircraft which is completely untrue. The father should be ashamed of himself to this day for his poor judgement and decision making. His own stupidity led to his children being killed in front of him, and also he took the lives of others. Idc what was common and neither does anyone else. Grow tf up
Those pilots shouldn't have been be buried as hero, but as a shame to russian aviation for letting a kid fly the plane causing the death of everyone on board. NO, it was not a freak accident, it was the freaking pilots who let a kid fly their plane. I only feel sorry for the passengers and their survivors, they had no role in this, but the pilots did.
"If a person doesn't know how to do something because he was never taught to, you can't really blame him." ok but i assume he was taught NOT TO LET HIS KID PILOT A PASSENGER JET?
Mayday better put new episodes on here. And if anyone comes at me can save their post for someone else. Because I seen the new and CURRENT episodes they could've posted. If you want to see this episode again, check out the playlist. That's what I do. Anyways, the only two things I came here to see is a newer episode, and an angel named Greg Feith. That's it!
Its a fundamental design feature of Airbus airplanes - the pilots are considered interlopers who have no business flying the plane and everything must pass through the computers. Boeing used to believe that the pilot should have the final say and the computers were there to help the pilots. Of course after they merged with McD they started cooking up that MCAS thing and that concept went out the window.
blud it was actually the plane's fault, don't make some shitty comment without researching this. this crash happening in 1994 while this was very common and pilots would occasionally do this and nothing happened whilt his was a new plane and alot of people were unaware about some problems that this plane can have
My only question is why the captain don't jump back to the seat when Boy realize the plane is turning by itself? This crash can be avoided if He jump back to the seat earlier. This Captain is an absolute idiot
@@Wildrover82 I vote they have to not only get actors who look exactly like them, but put them on a plane and make them recreate the crash while crews film them. Don't forget your lines, folks!
The irresponsibility of the pilot is beyond infuriating!
To have your children in the cockpit while 74 other lives are in your hands is just unbelievable

It doesn't matter if they weren't taught to do something, having those kids behind the controls is beyond reckless.
doesn't change the fact that they still aren't taught a very crucial thing. if they knew what to do, none of them would've been dead

I'd say it's 100% the adults' fault here.
At the setup to the story, it's mentioned that only the best pilots were chosen. What makes them the best? Certainly NOT judgement!
blud this was 1994, the best pilots had this thought in mind and could do this your judgement on this situation is mental. this happened in 1994 where this was purely common and this problem was of the plane and not the actually high class pilot
Their mistake is that they allowed a 15 yr old kid to get inside the cockpit. It's unprofessional.
it's not a mistake. anyone who is a relative of the pilot can litreally enter in or friends of the pilots or the manufacter can come inside
Always Respect your Eldars
a son's captain is flying a plane it's a terrible mistake. No kids are allowed in the cockpit
Back then they were. Not just their own kids, but any random little kid passenger. But touching anything in there, let alone FLYING THE PLANE is unheard of.
@@abbycross90210 when was the last time your kid got touch the plane's flight controls
@@abbycross90210 i know the FAA regulations and you know it
@@abbycross90210 kids do not fly the plane when your father is flying it
Yep that rules is kids please stay in airline seats
i just heard about this recently and oh man. That's so irresponsible...
the moment the kid said "why is it turning" the captain should've told him to let go of the controls, get out of the chair, and tell the first officer to take over.
regardless of knowing or not, he heard the kid tell him that the plane was turning. that was the pivotal moment where everything went wrong.
A 15yr old flying a jumbo jet, what could go wrong 😂
Why weren't the pilots trained on this feature?
In TWA 800 they had collected a bunch of detritus in the recovery process and it filled a bin. They were getting ready to just pitch it as it was not relevant to solving what happened and someone pointed out it was all personal possessions of the victims of the crash and the families might want it. So they let the families go through it and they were all "thank you for doing this" for letting them take mementos of their loved ones.
I don't believe that an A310 cannot bank more than 45 degrees. That must be in autopilot. Disengage it and I guess the plane will bank up to 60 degrees before any Bank Angle warning or protection kicks in.
Глупейшая катастрофа. Если вам доверили такую честь - одними из первых осваивать новейший самолет, так наверное, нужно было усердно учиться - ведь деньги вам платили огромные за это, отправили за бугор осваивать. Почет, уважение в авиакомпании. А вы должны были проштудировать его мануал от корки до корки.
А как вышло на самом деле?
Пилоты не знали самых важных вещей о самолете, угробили пассажиров, самолет, себя и своих детей.
2nd time watching this ... i cant believe how long he took before getting back to his sit after being told that te plane is turning by itself,,, NKT
I have a question 🙋♀️ so let’s say that they safely pulled this airplane ✈️ to safety, does anyone know if they would’ve said anything? I don’t because they would’ve all been fired.
What many people do not realize is that western pilots used to do the same thing back in the day. A truly sad accident indeed
Gosh, you must've been really busy interviewing every western airline pilot in the world. I'm quite surprised that they all unashamedly admitted to having their kids in the cockpit. I wish I had your work ethic and insight. Is that kind of dedication to research common in Bulgaria?
Take kids into the cockpit? Absolutely. Let them fly the damn plane full of passengers? No.
@@The_Viking_Highlander such a weird response. I’ve lived in the states for the last 40y and was involved in the aviation industry in one way or another. I have personally seen exactly the same thing done by an American pilot. They are not letting the kid fly the plane - the auto pilot does. Obviously it is irresponsible and this accident proves it. All I meant is that such behavior was not unheard of on this side of the pond as well. Don’t be so quick to judge
@@thebulgarianguy8461 No dear, you assume that the documentary and anyone watching is Russophobic. So, you try and defend Russia by accusing the West of the same dumb aviation practices. I'm sure it has happened in most airlines, but imho your defensive attitude is unfoundedand unwarranted.
Can confirm. I flew* one when my father was a captain for a major US airline.
I also would frequently fly jump seat or even "front seat" depending on the airline. Once they knew you were a pilot's kid, you were good. On smaller, commuter aircraft, I would frequently be the only passenger on board and they would almost always let me "fly" it.
*I was 22, not 15 and I was in the right seat. But I was, technically, controlling the aircraft for an extended period of time.
I watch this chapter was very sad for the issue of the Auto Pilot disabled, inclusive after recover from the fall, was too late to save the Plane from crash in the Snow forest.
From the majority of Air Crashes, the majority of deaths was in Russian Airplanes or planes located in Russia Region.
Aeroflot was scary in the Cold War when I flew into & out of Moscow
This accident is very infuriating because the captain should’ve never let his kids touch the control column💥😡 like if it was a simulated plane yes🛩️, but real one NO👿!
There is NO excuse to put a child at the captains seat! This captain is mad.
The ruzzians love to keep saying not to poke the bear. They neglected not to poke the plane.
However irresponsible, I doubt that the child in the pilot seat was the main cause of this disaster.
An unfortunate accident? So, you can't drive a car if you don't have license, but you can drive a plane if you are 13 years old?
Actually, yes and no, as long as it's a private plane. Unless it's a recent change in the law, there's no age for flying as long as you have a license.
Yes
Remember kids never ever on play in cockpit that very dangerous play and please stay in cabin of airline seats with read books, play video games, watch movies and relax on sleep do not enter in cockpit thank you
I’m imagining these investigators being stunned to first hear there were kids at the controls. 29:49
to be honest they weren't. This was very common in 1994
@@RavenBlades you didn’t watch the video ? It says that
it says what? And it's just a video you don't have multiple sources to prove you're right. You're just being biased at this point
"The other way". Not helpful. "Up, down, clockwise..."; these are useful directions especially when you dont have all day to get your point across.
Had they got the plane under control, would anyone had known the pilot had his kids flying the plane ?
He would’ve been fired if they found out his son was flying
Pride goes before a great fall.
Omg, the captain in the remake and the captain in the picture look so alike it is shocking! 😮
The captain should have never put his son behind the controllers. The accident wouldn't have happened then.
it was a bad descision to keep children in front of a plane's steering wheel with 74 souls on that flight. Still, the Dad just wanted be a great dad and I know he wasn't a great dad for accidently bringing his kids and other people to death on that flight. Still, he was really nice by giving them a first-person view of the aircraft but what he should have done was remove his son from the seat when he wasn't looking, I get that his son wants to become a pilot but there's a reason why there's an age restriction; and also inside a cockpit there are meant to be 4 or 3 seats. Why did 3 people come in when there were only 3-4 seats while 2 were taken. I do give my respects to the dad for being a grate dad and these comments are disgusting about dishonoring the pilots. A pilots job is not easy and I do understand that alot of pilots does istakes on purpose but this Dad was taking their kids abroad for the first time. None of the family has to be dishonored for this reason and I am truly and very sorry for all the souls aboard that flight who has died but don't give so much hate. The firsthand pilot didn't know that he was litreally going vertically up, as much as i do love technology, the computers went black about the navigation so don't go all on out towards the family
I do get that having his kids behind the wheel was reckless and shouldn't have told his kids to actually drive the plane but instead had his children as spectators instead of drivers and this problem could have been avoided without that descision
Anyone moaning about this being a repost, can unsubscribe, and watch something else. Do I make myself clear?
No please repost that comment. 😂
No. Can you explain more?
yes daddy we're sorry, we hear you loud n clear
🤣🤣🤣 What will you do if people disobey?
Roger that Cap, we are going to Uranus with this..
LORD HAVE MERCY!! This is purely mental. I cannot even imagine this actually happening Anywhere on earth. I am sorry to sound stereotypical, but some Russians are absolutely reckless. To allow a child to control a massive commercial airline is psychotic!!! Not to mention he doesn't even own this aircraft.
@@Taylor-or1kj 🤣
honestly this is absolutly hillarious to see such a reckless comment without doing any research and being brainless about the situation. this was common in 1994 and this was the fault of the new and highly automated computers in a new aircraft
@@RavenBlades Your brain is smoked. I don’t need to do research know that this fool is at fault for killing everyone on board. You should be embarrassed that you tried to blame the “new and highly automated computers” Let me explain something to you, because you’re obviously not very smart… What was common back then is meaningless; it’s called being considerate of the lives IN YOUR HANDS as the captain. When you say “it was common back then” You sound like you’re implying that there was 0 negligence on behalf of the human being operating the aircraft which is completely untrue. The father should be ashamed of himself to this day for his poor judgement and decision making. His own stupidity led to his children being killed in front of him, and also he took the lives of others. Idc what was common and neither does anyone else. Grow tf up
This is a disgrace
Those pilots shouldn't have been be buried as hero, but as a shame to russian aviation for letting a kid fly the plane causing the death of everyone on board.
NO, it was not a freak accident, it was the freaking pilots who let a kid fly their plane. I only feel sorry for the passengers and their survivors, they had no role in this, but the pilots did.
Quanta falta de responsabilidade! Onde é que já viu o comandante pôr uma criança na cabine de comando da aeronave?
I FELT ANGRY WATCHING THIS EPISODE WHY ALL KNOW
"If a person doesn't know how to do something because he was never taught to, you can't really blame him." ok but i assume he was taught NOT TO LET HIS KID PILOT A PASSENGER JET?
F around and find out.
15 year old child in the pilot seat and already an crash.. irresponsibly
Horrible safety record already
Unbelievably bad judgement.
Let me guess... Aeroflot crashed.
Big surprise.
Dumbest plane crash ever
another man made accident that wouldnt have happened if ai was fully in control of a plane
How would the pilots have ever talked their way of the Gulag if some how they had saved the flight with so many witnesses and injuries?
This was a pretty dumb decision. The kid is not trained enough with the controls on how they work and where are they.
Even If they survived, the pilots will be fired.
So 😢sad tragedy in aviation history due to human error😢
They just did that cobra maneuver during flight
Wow....unbelievable. How Irresponsible .
That sucks so a lot of stuff that had to go wrong
Wait...
Who is the crappiest pilot in the world...?
10:03,13:46 Aeroflot Flight 593 departed from Moscow to Hong Kong, but the map shows that Aeroflot Flight 593 is flying below the city of Novokuznetsk
Give you a cookie
Outrageous
Mayday better put new episodes on here. And if anyone comes at me can save their post for someone else. Because I seen the new and CURRENT episodes they could've posted. If you want to see this episode again, check out the playlist. That's what I do. Anyways, the only two things I came here to see is a newer episode, and an angel named Greg Feith. That's it!
Can an aircraft that size even do those manoeuvres ?
Fundamentally Russian mindset. Sorry for being so reductive but back then stupidity was often what got you promotions.
Its a fundamental design feature of Airbus airplanes - the pilots are considered interlopers who have no business flying the plane and everything must pass through the computers. Boeing used to believe that the pilot should have the final say and the computers were there to help the pilots. Of course after they merged with McD they started cooking up that MCAS thing and that concept went out the window.
Ah yes, we should blame the plane, and not the ones who let a kid in the damn cockpit...did you work for Boeing maybe?
blud it was actually the plane's fault, don't make some shitty comment without researching this. this crash happening in 1994 while this was very common and pilots would occasionally do this and nothing happened whilt his was a new plane and alot of people were unaware about some problems that this plane can have
Considering how painstakingly dumb some pilots are, I’d rather the computer fly the plane. Computers make mistakers far less often than humans do.
My only question is why the captain don't jump back to the seat when Boy realize the plane is turning by itself? This crash can be avoided if He jump back to the seat earlier. This Captain is an absolute idiot
Was this pilot on drugs?
"Eldor, you are so grounded"
Kek 😂
17:53 No context / Audio
💀
Somebody watching??😊😊😊
Get in the airplane, Shinji.
sorry can anyone tell me how they do the recreation of what happened in the flight???do they hire actors that look similar or smth else?
ig...
Well...yeah. They didn't resurrect everyone onboard just to film a TV show.
Of course they are actors, the real people were killed.......
It would be ridiculous for the actors to be required to look like the real people.
@@Wildrover82 I vote they have to not only get actors who look exactly like them, but put them on a plane and make them recreate the crash while crews film them. Don't forget your lines, folks!
New title: "Kiddo kills 74 people... Lol."
Aboustley horrific and so irresponsible. Just disgraceful.
A kid in cockpit is it a joke ?? Rediculous
OK, maybe "Iron Eagle" is 10% believable now.
Instead of pretending to have perfect hindsight,
how about _finish_ watching the episode first.
