    As a person who works in regulation, I like to remind everyone in every industry; 'safety regulations are written in blood.' People aren't robots, they need rest. :(
  • When the controller asks your intentions after providing deteriorating ground conditions, he's basically saying "I cant tell you what do do, but I would wait".
  • @tilly6085
    Many lessons here, but this one struck me the most: when the situation starts getting sketchy, don't hesitate to get out while you still can. The point of no return is likely closer than you think, so don't push it. In this case, it wasn't that you couldn't do a go-around at that last second, it was that the FO was unable to do it without panicking and messing it up, which he didn't account for.
  • I have recommended several times in my own company's CRM course that pilots subscribe to this channel. It could function perfectly as ongoing human factors awareness between the formal yearly courses. And because of your excellent narration and personable demeanour, much more watchable than many other CRM presentations. You are making aviation safer.
  • I appreciate that the investigations don't just stop at blaming the pilots but look hard at the human factors -- stress level, fatigue, etc.
  • As a passenger of this flight, this is the best description how it felt and what happened. Thanks for making a video of this. ❤️
  • My wife and I had arrived into Bangkok from London around the same time as this accident. Back home news broke of a crash in Thailand and that people from our home town had been on the flight. My father in law rang me immediately fearing it was our flight. Sadly a young lad called Aaron Toland who lived not too far from us had died. RIP.
  • I'll never forget the Adam Air crash when the investigators asked the owners about their training program and they looked at each other like "what's a training program?" There are some airlines that we really need to scrutinize before getting on their planes. I have heard that China Airlines was one of the worst in the world at one time when it came to safety. But, they reached out to the US for help in implementing an intense safety and training program and, has since become a very safe airline.
  • You sir, you need to be a college professor. Every topic is covered in smallest details and explained so that even the people who never saw a plane with their eyes can understand what has actually happened. Wish you all the best and keep up the good work.
  • The solar powered security sistem issue is hilarious. As we say in Spain: "rio por no llorar" (which more or less means "I laugh, but I might as well be crying")
  • @rickyoung6022
    In each respective video, the level of detail you provide and the reiterations of important factors you present really help the viewer put all the pieces together and wrap their head around the total scenario. They serve to enhance the story as well. Your excellent videos are logical, engrossing and very well produced. Thank you for what you do.
  • @B33ENN
    When I used to visit Thailand back in the mid 2000s, on one occasion I flew a return trip with this budget airline between Bangkok-Phuket. It was during the peak season period, February-March, so weather was stable. I do remember being concerned by the state of the aircraft and the rather bumpy landings enough to avoid flying with them again.
  • @zeroroot
    Also, one of the saddest things about this accident was that a lot of ppl survived the initial crash, but due to bad weather and other delays, they lost their lives by drowning by firefighter water or waiting for help in the rain that night. As a Thais, I really love your work and your Thai pronunciation was very good TBH.
  • This is bizarre! I live on Phuket and only the other day I was thinking of asking you to consider making a video about this incident. I still can't forget it after all these years.
  • 29:50 "...it is your duty to report any unsafe practices that you see" this goes for EVERYONE. If you are at your job, school, event, family or social gathering, etc. If you see something that you know isn't right, then make it known to people that can help you. complacency with status quo isn't good enough <3
  • Your videos are an integral part of every weekend of mine, or at the very least of a monday lunch break. Such quality content! I appreciate how you've been experimenting with the balance between cinematic simulator footage (SO well done, I'm amazed), schematics, stock footage and your own face cam. I love the ratio that you've arrived to in the last few videos. Your passion for your line of work translates through your expressiveness and gestures, it's very inspiring. Thank you for making youtube better!
  • @johnnunn8688
    The tower asks your intentions (in situations like this) because he’s not allowed to say, ‘OY, knobber, what do you think you are doing!?’.
  • @paulhainesbkk
    Very well covered. I live in Thailand and met a foreign pilot from the airline. He said it was shocking, pilots warned management of safety issues frequently as you highlighted. It was run by a real rogue businessman. They had the oldest passenger 747 in existence with leaking wing tanks which had caused engine fire but they never fixed them
  • @nigelbond4056
    I flew into Phuket a few days later and the sight of the wreckage was hugely shocking, knowing how many people had lost their lives. Such an avoidable tragedy and thankfully flying domestically in Thailand today is much safer 🤞
