  • There are lots of movies that show what pilots are doing, but not many that talk about what happens with air traffic control. But with all the ATC vs Pilots videos I have been doing some of you asked me to do this... I hope you enjoy it.

      Kelsey should have pointed out that that EVERY aircraft going into ATL is on an IFR flight plan....and, unless and until a flight has called the "airport, or field in sight" ATC is totally responsible for separation of ALL aircraft under their control...If an aircraft reports the "field in sight" that aircraft can now be cleared for a "visual" approach and can maneuver to land. Even if you do not have the "airport in sight" you can still be cleared for a visual approach if you have another aircraft in sight that has already been cleared for a visual approach..... approach will point out traffic you are following in sequence.....if you call that traffic in sight...approach can tell you " follow traffic, maintain separation, cleared for visual approach. My WHOLE point for this diatribe was the controller saying "maintain separation"...this is said to tell you that they (ATC) are no longer responsible for your separation with the traffic you're following. This ability is important at high usage airports as the minimum separation for aircraft on a visual approach is far less than that required when the weather is crappy...and so the airport is far more efficient. It's movies like this that got me banned from family movie night if an aircraft were involved in the movie...lol
      OH....Kelsey, I never flew the 74, but do have a number of type ratings in my 30 year career....I've been retired for a number of years now...but when DID they change "taxi into position and hold" to " line up and wait?"

      In that case, even with that idiot on ATC the landing plane would have just said something like "Stellar 841 going around" after noticing the departing plane rolling on the intersecting runway.
      But with a sane and realistic person on ATC, the whole situation wouldn't exist, if they gave a landing clearance for one plane they won't let another one begin rolling on the intersecting runway until it's clear, and unless the airport is super busy runway 31L wouldn't even be in use at all. There's a crazy amount of traffic a competent ATC can pack into just two parallel runways, and with JFK having two parallel pairs they'd just pick a direction that works best with the wind at the time and have everyone land and take off at the same heading.

  • @pastorjerrykliner3162

    "Clear to land" never means "You must land." I would hope a pilot "Cleared to land" watching another aircraft coming down an intersecting runway would perform the "Go Around" even if the tower kept saying "You're cleared to land." This depicts pilots as stupid and helpless, and while there is the occasional inept pilot out there, it is beyond my comprehension that there would be a pilot so stupid as to see that situation developing and not abort the landing. Ditto with the departing aircraft...there isn't a pilot out there who would not be on the reversers before trying to "punch it." Dumb, dumb, dumb movie.

      True. Contrary to popular belief, the pilot in command has the ultimate responsibility of maintaining separation from other aircrafts not the ATC. The PIC can contradict ATC clearances if he/she deems it to be unsafe. He/She may have a lengthy paper work to do after the flight, but it’s better than putting everyone in danger.

    Dear Kelsey,
    great video! A small point of nitpicking though, at 05:50 you explain what a pilot could say when he thinks the controller forgot to issue the take off clearance and you say the phrase "boeing123 on runway 4L, ready for take off". It should be ".... ready for DEPARTURE", regardless of whether you're on the runway or taxiway, since following the 747 crash in tenerife the word "take off" is to only ever be used when actual take off clearances are issued, read back or cancelled to avoid any potential confusion, in any other situation it should be "departure". Best regards and thanks for the video!

  • @fgaviator
    @fgaviator Před 3 lety +126

    5:50 Minor correction: it's "ready for departure" (or just "ready"), not "ready for takeoff". At least over here in Europe proper phraseology does not allow using the word "takeoff" except for the "cleared for takeoff" instruction, to avoid any confusion. So "departure" would be used when reminding ATC. Apart from that: spot on. 👍😀

      Here is the States there isn’t a published verbatim phraseology for pilots when announcing they’re ready. There’s “best practice” but nothing in stone. As for us controllers, “departure” is a sector, not an action. So you’re correct “cleared for takeoff” is the phraseology and we would have them “contact departure.” Hope that clears it up.

      Not how I've understood it. In the investigation of the Tenerife crash in 1977, it was noted that when the controller gave the KLM crew their ATC clearance, he said something like 'after takeoff, fly to the PAPA beacon...' or something to that effect, which may have contributed to that captain believing he was cleared for takeoff. It was decided that the word "takeoff" should only be used when the plane is actually ready or cleared to do so. When I fly (Cessnas, not 747s), I use 'departure' first (ie, "Request taxi to the active runway for a north departure to 3000 feet"), but when I'm holding short of the runway and ready to go, I will report "Ready for takeoff" on the grounds that I'm now set to do so. There's nothing confusing or ambiguous about telling a controller you are ready for takeoff - it is then their prerogative to give you takeoff clearance or not.

    One thing I cought: Asking tower "Boeing 123, ready for takeoff" is an example of bad phraseology. The word takeoff should only be used with takeoff clearance and the readback. Otherwise use "ready for departure". This makes clear that you are ready, but not in the process of takeoff yet. It also helps to make the keyword takeoff more recognisable to catch for others and raises situational awareness. So that when they hear takeoff, they know it is a clearance or a plane taking off. Nothing else.
    For example if you are about to cross the runway and hear takeoff on the radio, you may be alarmed that there is a takeoff crossing your path and can clear the situation befor entering the runway or the other guy getting too much speed.

    Kelsey, I love your content, but I've got to clear up a misconception about supervisors in ATC overriding controllers. That just doesn't happen except in very, very rare cases. You're not the only pilot that holds that view. It seems to be very common. Supervisors are just there monitoring the operation. They may offer general guidance or help a controller who needs it, but they would not directly override what the controller does. The majority of the time if you hear someone override a controller, it's because there is training in progress. The overriding controller is actually the instructor overriding the trainee. The way the ATC radio equipment works, the instructor jack has priority over the trainee jack, so if the instructor keys up, their transmission goes out, not the trainee's. Any other time if you hear another controller speaking, it's just a routine controller swap.
