Attemped Skyjacking over Wisconsin last night aboard a United Airlines 737. ATC audio describes that a passenger tried to breach the cockpit several times. Luckily there were 5 Law Enforcement Officers onboard. The Captain of the flight said the skyjacker was seated in between two FBI Agents when the flight landed at Madison.

A fire truck was trying to cross runway 04 at LGA - LaGuardia Airport this evening to get to a United Airlines flt 2384 that had 2 rejected takeoffs. The United 737 Max declared an emergency on the ground and requested fire trucks due to a strange odor that was making the flight attendants sick. The fire “TRUCK 1” was cleared to cross runway 04 to respond to the United flight when it collided with the Air Canada / Jazz CRJ. Listen to the audio via ATC gives you an idea of how task saturated LaGuardia Control Tower became trying to deal with this emergency and caused another emergency that ended in loss of life. 🙏

Absolutely wild footage, this is a real world engine failure in a MD500 (Think Magnum P.I. helicopter) over Kauai, Hawaii out on a tour flight. You’ll probably have to watch this a few times but the video starts out with the helicopter under power and then the engine sound goes silent. The beeping you hear is the engine-out audio beep to inform the pilot that engine power has been lost. This maneuver that pilot is doing is called a Autorotation and the way to think about helicopter flight, the engine is turning this big fan (rotor blades) on top of the body and sucking in air from the top and projecting it downward to overcome the force of gravity. When engine power is lost, you experience a reverse in airflow because now gravity takes over and the air flow is coming from the bottom of the main rotor disk. The only thing the pilot can really do is to make sure the rotors keep spinning by changing the pitch of the rotor blades through the use of the “collective” which is a lever next to the pilot’s left leg and it only moves up and down. The pilot has to manipulate the collective during an auto rotation to make sure the blades keep spinning. If the pilot pulls up too much on the collective, the rotor blades will bite too much of air causing a resistance and slow the rotors down. If the pilot doesn’t pull enough collective.. the blades will speed up and potentially cause a catastrophic failure. The other control the pilot has is called the cyclic. This cyclic sits between the pilots legs and and manipulates individual pitch of the rotor blades to tilt the rotor disk aka “big fan” and make the helicopter go forward, backwards, left, right. So essentially in this type of emergency, you have to manipulate the controls in a delicate balance because no matter what, gravity is taking you to the ground because the engine is no longer producing power. The pilot did an outstanding job here given the geography and limited amount of flat terrain to put the helicopter on the ground. Thankfully it sounds like no souls were lost and only one injury according to a news report (see the link below)👇 Of course there is a lot more to helicopter aerodynamics but I’m trying my best to put this in simpler to digest terms. Big thanks to Combat Learjet for sharing and definitely worth a follow!

MEDIVAC MED SERVICE 056 - MTS56 (Learjet 55 Mexico registered XA-UCI) crashed near the Roosevelt Mall after departing the Northeast Philadelphia Airport - KPNE just after 6pm EST. This is an air ambulance flight and the “MEDIVAC” callsign means they had a patient onboard. The flight was enroute to Springfield, MO 🙏 Audio via LiveATC.net and tracking via Flightradar24 & FlightAware

I don’t understand this, Dulles is one of the most iconic airports in America. Just get rid of those stupid people movers and put in a underground rail system that is semi functional. This airport is the living legacy of Eero Saarinen. You wanna revamp something, fix ATL, DTW, and MDW which are sewer pits.

“Well, we're having a problem with maintenance, It's Sunday, and it's Super Bowl” This poor Jet Blue pilot tries to make a in-range call to their ops about a maintenance issue thinking they’re transmitting on their ARINC freq going into Nashville when in fact they were transmitting on 121.5 and this poor SOB just gets steam rolled by all the other pilots on frequency. Thank you Bill B. for the audio and Flightradar24 for the track. Absolute audio gold.

KCVG - Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport went ATC ZERO this evening after evacuating the control tower leaving the airport uncontrolled. Flights deconflicting themselves on the radio. Rumor is a possible security scare, the tower resumed operations not long after. Audio via Bill B.
