Delta A320 | LEFT ENGINE FAILURE AFTER TAKEOFF | Emergency Return

That pilot was sharp. Great job.

Outstanding professionalism by the pilots, ATC and everyone else I suspect. I was particularly impressed by the pilot when he notified ATC about go around request. The crew was thinking well ahead as they should be. 😅

Pilot and atc have their shit together. Give them a gold star ✌️

Great capture Victor! Just EXACTLY like they are professionally trained to do EVERY year! Bravo!

Haha the pilot is great. Returning for the emergency and still passing the pirep to the controller. Great work!

The professionalism is impressive.

As a current center controller, hearing that pilot declare an emergency and give ATC the pertinent information that we need in one transmission makes me so happy. Great job by everyone!

This is by far one of the most professional interactions by the crew and ATC. Great job 👏

Very nicely done! He even called out his go around pan..

This pilot sounds like they've had this happen to them before, they were absolutely confidant of what they needed to do, and they were supplying far more information to the controllers than is normally expected (or required). The pilot of an aircraft that has had an in-flight engine failure telling the controller their go-around plan before they do an emergency landing is unusual, but it's a welcome change, it helps keep everyone coordinated and on the same page. I'd be interested to know how many flight hours of experience the pilot and co-pilot of this aircraft had on this type of aircraft, I'm nearly certain that it's over 2500 hours for both of them and the pilot handling the radios during this emergency might have even up to 5000 hours. You can just tell they're extremely experienced with this aircraft type by how calm and confidant they sounded while handling this emergency. I guess if you don't want to read all that, I can boil it down to "These pilots sounded incredibly experienced, and they handled the emergency with the utmost of professionalism."

Great job all around. Calm, cool, and collected

The calm professionalism of these pilots never ceases to amaze me. Engine out on climb and he sounds like he's still reporting the weather conditions!

Top notch work! Very well handled. love the pilots describing their plan for Balked landing, clear and concise. Happy to fly with them any day ! 👏

This is one of the best interactions I have heard for a while. Just another day at the office. Flight crew planning ahead at all times.

This pilot was awesome, always ahead.

Nothing restores my faith in humanity quite like listening to a professional calmly head off a mass casualty event.

Textbook! Fantastic! Great job to the pilots, controllers, and emergency crews!

Worst time for radio problems.

This was super clean. Bravo.

Some real heads up action by all!
