- THIS VIDEO IS A RECONSTRUCTION OF THE FOLLOWING SITUATION IN FLIGHT:
02-JUL-2024. An American Airlines Airbus A319 (A319), registration N819AW, performing AAL903 / AA903 from Chicago O’Hare International Airport, IL (USA) to Washington Reagan National Airport, DC (USA) after departure reported engine issue and requested to stop climb at 5000 feet. When the flight crew switched the frequency of Departure controller they declared MAYDAY, requested delay vectors and decided to return to O’Hare Airport. As the pilots reported later, they had high EGT on the number 1 engine.

THE VALUE OF THIS VIDEO:
THE MAIN VALUE IS EDUCATION. This reconstruction will be useful for actual or future air traffic controllers and pilots, people who plan to connect life with aviation, who like aviation. With help of this video reconstruction you’ll learn how to use radiotelephony rules, Aviation English language and general English language (for people whose native language is not English) in situation in flight, which was shown. THE MAIN REASON I DO THIS IS TO HELP PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND EVERY EMERGENCY SITUATION, EVERY WORD AND EVERY MOVE OF AIRCRAFT.

HOW I DO VIDEOS:
1) I monitor media, airspace, looking for any non-standard, emergency and interesting situation.
2) I find communications of ATC unit for the period of time I need.
3) I take only phrases between air traffic controller and selected flight.
4) I find a flight path of selected aircraft.
5) I make an animation (early couple of videos don’t have animation) of flight path and aircraft, where the aircraft goes on his route.
6) When I edit video I put phrases of communications to specific points in video (in tandem with animation).
7) Together with my comments (voice and text) I edit and make a reconstruction of emergency, non-standard and interesting situation in flight.
I really appreciate them using the mayday-mayday-mayday call, because lately I've seen a lot of "yeah, so we're declaring an emergency at this time" while also giving other information, and it's not nearly as clear for ATC.

IT DOESN'T MATTER, STOP THIS NONSENSE
Stop shouting.

Love that Chicago always sounds so calm whenever there's a mayday. It's very reassuring.
The crew contact the departures controller, saying they need vectors and some time, only for the departures controller to ask if they want to come in now. Listen ffs. He said he wanted a vector and some time. The last thing they want to be doing is answering questions they;ve already answered.
Keep in mind that the transcript we have on this video, and the clarity with which we hear everyone (from a third party antenna and radio) is not what they have as they’re working.
I heard, “and now we’re heading back to Chicago” from the pilot. Was his first transmission on departure frq. Controller asked immediately if they were ready to come in immediately, because it sounded like the aircraft said it was vectoring itself to a runway.
Why is it that normal AIRCRAFT-ATC comms are heard first time, but whenever ATC asks for "souls on board and remaining fuel" the PM has to repeat it multiple times?
It’s not really a big deal.
There’s a lot going on in emergencies, of course they might ask again like the pilots asked things a couple of times.
An extreme emergency that demands an immediate return (if it's even possible) will happen too quickly for ATC to speak. At the start of every reasonable scenario, the pilots always need quiet time and vectors around the airport (to reduce navigation workload).
Give me fuel in pounds and souls. Wait can you repeat that? They almost always have to ask twice. It’s like they ask for the info and then aren’t ready to write it down.
They should at least ask for “persons on board”. “Passengers” excludes crew, “souls” excludes lawyers.
America903: "we're working an issue". Then the male tower controller calls them 3 times asking if they need help in quick succession. ffs. Leave them alone. Their priorities are Aviate.Navigate.Communicate.
We don't see other traffic, there may have been a conflict risk. Sure, they could also direct the other plane, I don't think those comms are here either.
WTF that "fun" in 2:39 means 😭😭😭
That workload is insane in that moment - they have to stabilize, diag, contact Ops, and keep flying (and maybe inform pax too)
@@jonathanbott87 Exact but why he uses 'fun stuffs' on the pilots
@@navigatingskies Sarcasm. Like when someone is going to do something they don't want to do you say sarcastically to them 'have fun'.
