10 DEADLIEST Pilot Mistakes In Aviation History!

1. CORRECTION TO VIDEO: The image for the Captain of Saudi Flight 163 is incorrect. That is the correct image for the Captain of Pan Am 1736 shown later in the video.
   If you found value in this video then you'd probably enjoy the 10 DEADLIEST Air Show Disasters In History! 👉 https://youtu.be/4D-DOsz7xfw

   I appreciate your patience and understanding if there are any other mistakes. It took quite a bit of effort to produce this video and I watched it dozens of times trying to catch any errors. Thanks!

2. I don't like that the report says "they" when it was all Pierre.

3. Stop with the metric crap. Your viewers don't know it well and it's a stupid 3rd world countries unit of mismeasurement. Go with with the one that brung you.

4. Each of those on the list deserves its own full videos!

5. 38:52 Flying today is safer than it's ever been. OMG! Loss of all credibility with 1 sentence. Tell Mr. pilot debrief: Has Boeing always murdered high profile whistle blowers?Have they? No? Then it's NOT phuqing safer today. Has a Boeing CEO publicly pledged 100% transparency. Then a reporter asked Calhoon: Could an American pilot have saved the MCAS malfunction? Calhoon said I'll answer that if you promise not to record it. Do you promise not to record? Reporter: No! Calhoon: Screw you, I'm not answering it. Have Boeing CEO's always been so unaware of themselves to make a 180 degree contradiction within minutes? Have they?` `No? Then commercial flights are not phuqing safer today. Quit lying.

6. Hoover is the reason I am scared to fly. It seems pilots in these videos are extremely incompetent. A lot of these were Airbus. Bad autopilot design. Airbus killed a lot of these flights.
   Idiot pilots and idiotic autopilot = death sentence.

7. Flying may be as safe as you say. But….if the plane does crash, you’re dead. Almost never is a plane crash survivable. I’ll stick to driving because if my car stalls it doesn’t fall 30,000 feet out of the air.

8. I sure hope that the There are requirements now that flight crews to spend hours in the flight simulators, the whole crew, so individuals and their evaluators can determine if there is tension between individuals and allow for the creation of a harmonious experienced crew to perform as the check lists state per the conditions.
   Commercial aviation unlike military flight crew’s assignments are such that there is too much change between who if handling any given aircraft at any given flight. So the airlines need to create assigned flight crews and they need to train together in the simulators as often as they can.

9. Can you do a vid about the crash in the Grand Canyon in 1955? Supposedly, that one was the reason the FAA was formed, and the whole VOR complex was set up, and the ATC. Before that, all airlines were their own “traffic controllers”. I think that one must’ve been one of the most deadly, b/c it did involve two large airliners. I read about it when I was in the Grand Canyon.

10. Sten Mullin was framed. You (and the NTSB) are completely wrong about AA587. Sten Mullin was framed.
    Furthermore you completely ignored the Airbus flight control system. Which was actually the whole reason for that mishap.
    No Kudo's for you whatsoever Hoover. I expect more from you than just following narratives.
    You almost lost a subscription with that one.

11. 39:39
    It's not the captain of the Saudi jet
    The man pictured is Captain Victor grubbs, Captain of pan am flight 1736

12. Don't those airliners have pito heat

13. Same picture used to identify the Saudi pilot & pilot of the deadliest last crash

14. Based on all these aircraft disaster videos it seems majority of crashes are human error and gross pilot incompetence. This is what happens when autopilot flies 95% of the flight. Not understanding basic stall characteristics which happens probabaly 70% of the time during a crash is just ridiculous.

15. What about the Zagreb incident?

16. 38:47 Oh boy, this part aged very, very poorly just within 1 month from publishing.

17. And the number or survivors is always reported. But the morbidity isnt something ppl think abt. Like, the burn victims ago can never thermoregulate again. No sweat glands in scar tissue. The fractures and spinal cord, injuries and vertebral fractures. There’s probably tons of high-grade tibial plateau fractures like the one I had in my car accident. And fracturing joints destroys the lining cartilage. Your age doesn’t matter, cause you’re gonna have post traumatic arthritis in a few yrs at most. My foot was bone on bone by 2014, age 30. The head injuries. It is horrifying to imagine some of that heavy luggage, let alone, one of those entire overhead containers that is bolted onto the ceiling, coming down on top of you during an impact. Cervical spine injuries … quadraplegic. The PTSD, flashbacks. Amputated limbs. And regarding the people that I have to breathe in that disgusting smelling smoke from burning plastic and cyanide, and whatever else some of these situations have, what will they be experiencing in 20 years? What kind of cancer?

18. It has to be living hell to be a passenger in these planes, trapped, falling, and not even hearing a word from the cockpit because of how fast something happened and then being busy trying to fix it. The fact you’re trapped, too. Dreams where you’re falling or outrunning a tornado etc are scary enough …and I can always fly away or something.

19. Why for the love of God are you making pilots fly after they haven't slept in 24 hours that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard

20. When you put documents on screen your audio pops in and out sometimes for long periods.thanks

21. Great research by your crew!!!!!

22. Don’t focus on landing, focus of flying. If you fly correctly, you will eventually land successfully.

23. Should have some kind of liquid container fixed in aircraft to look at when you’re unsure of your attitude or angle. Water doesn’t lie, a bubble level could be useful too but could be confusing in certain angles. But water in a container will be obvious

24. I don’t fly because of a real fear. I don’t take cruises either. Too much water. But I love watching your videos.❤

25. Ya honestly captain, the knowledge I have learned not being a pilot has me watching other videos and shaking my head, it’s also given me my new goal of what I’d like to do with the rest of my life and that’s to be a pilot!

26. Man, most of the debriefs you do are small planes owned by civilians. I understand all the f-ups with them. But this video with the commercial flights, are terrifying… Such stupid mistakes, and with 3 or 4 people in the cockpit…😮 Talk about all the "holes in the Swiss cheese", is an understatement… So do these pilots take a couple tests in a simulator, then get turned loose to take paying customers to their deaths ?? I've been a passenger on major airlines a few times in my life, even though I was deathly afraid to fly, but this video makes me want to never be in an airplane again…. Each one of the stories was like having The Three Stooges in the cockpit… Nobody was paying attention, or calling an emergency, until it was too late…

27. GREAT JOB HOOVER, YOU ARE VERY INFORMATIVE & I HAVE LEARNED A GREAT DEAL FROM YOUR VIDEOS. KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB ! ! !

28. Wow, the first accident is literally Air France flight 447 Soviet edition.

29. That non-evacuation story is INSANE! If I was a family member of one of those passengers,I would have sued the ever livin’ SHIT out of that airline for letting incompetent MORONS FLY A PLANE! 😡
