THIS VIDEO IS A RECONSTRUCTION OF THE FOLLOWING SITUATION IN FLIGHT:

03-FEB-2024. An Endeavor Air Canadair Regional Jet CRJ-900 (CRJ9), registration N320PQ, performing flight EDV4826 / 9E4826 from Toronto Pearson International Airport (Canada) to New York John F. Kennedy International Airport, NY (USA) during climb out of Toronto, about at 11000 feet, declared MAYDAY, reported electrical fire in the cockpit and requested immediate return to the airport of departure. Later, on the way back, the flight crew reported that it looked like the windshield heater had sparked up on the captain’s side and requested the emergency trucks to meet them on the ground. After landing the airplane stopped on the runway for inspection.

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.
