In 2005 Helios 522 suffered decompression which knocked out the pilots and passengers but one steward was able to maintain consciousness by bottled oxygen. Unfortunately he didn't know how to operate the radio and it was still tuned to the airport where the plane took off from which was by then far out of range.

Not expecting it at all, facing downwards, and completely unable to hear anything. I'd be astonished if the target did notice anything before actual contact But yeah overall you wouldn't want to bet on it.

Regardless if you can land a plane without ATC assistance (specific instruction on setting flight controls etc), you obviously still need ATC for clearance to land and following their directions etc. There's more to landing a plane than just....landing the plane. All too confusing with setting the heading, flaps, thrust, airbrakes, rear stabiliser trim, gear down, and paying attention to stall and terrain warnings not to mention setting the correct frequency to talk to approach control or ground control or whatever at ATC.
@patheddles4004

True, but ATC can and will route around a plane coming in NORDO (no radio). That does happen from time to time. ATC will do everything they can to establish radio contact and sort things out in a less dramatic way, but ultimately they'll declare an emergency and just work around whatever the plane is doing. Whole lot of constraints go away in an emergency, and everyone works together to deal with the issue. Likewise in an emergency, ATC will shuffle frequencies so that the ad-hoc pilot doesn't have to deal with reconfiguring their radio - the real issue is just establishing radio contact to begin with. This scenario hasn't happened with a commercial airliner - that's one of the reasons why airliners have at least two pilots - but there are videos on KZitem of quite a few incidents like this in general aviation. There's pilot incapacitated and non-pilot passenger having to take over, there's instructor incapacitated and student pilot having to take over, there's inexperienced student pilot on solo flight suddenly having to deal with in-flight emergencies, hell there's even at least one example of a solo pilot being temporarily incapacitated and then recovering and landing successfully.

Not much to test, honestly. First, the numbers that you're probably thinking of: - In open air, Jet A burns around 1030C. - Steel melts somewhere around 1300-1530C depending on the type of steel = Therefore, Jet A burning in open air cannot melt steel However: - In confined spaces, eg. in a jet engine or in mostly-sealed air pockets within a building, Jet A burns anywhere up to around 2230C - Structural steel loses two thirds of its strength by 600C, and steel in a skyscraper kinda needs that strength in order to not fail from the weight it's supporting. Especially with an extra few hundred tons of airliner to support, and with recent structural damage from a large kinetic impact. - Steel, like any other material, gets hotter when bent and crushed. In most contexts this isn't significant, but it is relevant in a catastrophic failure involving fire and a whole lot of falling mass.

There are a lot of favorable assumptions included in the 'talked down' scenarios. Most signfificantly, that the Air Traffic Controller knows anything about flying the particular airliner in question. Most controllers are not pilots. Those that are, are not qualified on airliners. So being able to explain what the instruments mean and how to use the controls and what speed to aim for in each phase and how to achieve it and use of flaps and such to slow down - nah... not so much... D'oh ... Next - how does the passenger establish communications - just figuring out the radios and headsets and buttons and frequencies is a challenge by itself - and then finding The ONE correct frequency that anyone nearby is listening on ... ?? Next - fuel reserves? Airliners often carry 'just enough fuel' to get to the destination and only another hour or so at best. This is a time limited exercise. Next - these scenarios are started close to an airport at a lower altitude - when the exercise is started at cruise altitude - just safely getting down to denser/safer air without damaging the plane is a challenge. So - successful as they were in these scenarios - the scenarios are heavily favorable to begin with. But, hey - if it makes passengers feel better so they keep flying - what the heck. Enjoy the myth. That said - there are real life cases of 'partly-qualified' passengers (experienced watching) on smaller airplanes, successfully doing this (google wife lands turboprop after husband dies of heart attack.). ✌🏼

The final comments about how much simpler it would be on the 'autopilot' also make huge assumptions. The complexities of automated modes and having anyone on the radio who knows what the controls look like on that plane and what happens if the wrong buttons or dials are turned at the wrong time - or the autoflight disconnects for any reason ... just sayin' this entire scenario is so far from a realistic simulation as to just extend the myth. 🤨✌🏼

In real cases like this in general aviation, ATC generally gets an expert on the radio to talk them down - either a flight instructor or at least a pilot who's qualified on the specific plane. Definitely not relying on ATC to have a detailed knowledge of the plane's controls and instruments. Passenger establishing comms probably is the single most difficult thing, yes. And they did completely skip over that here. Time-limited exercise for sure, but that's not really the limiting factor. Extra hour of fuel is about right (technically it'd probably be diversion plus 30 minutes), but that's a hell of a lot of time. If you're down to an hour of fuel then you're already at your destination which makes the radio stuff much easier, and if you're well short then you have more time and plenty of other places to land. Given the choice, I would /much/ rather start this scenario at cruise altitude. Much safer, much easier. Leave the throttles alone, keep the wings more or less level, push/pull the yoke or flight stick to roughly maintain speed, forget about altitude, and you've got all the time in the world to figure stuff out and get in touch with ATC. (for reference I'd probably count as "partly-qualified passenger" in your terms - did have a few lessons, have logged a few hours, but am not in any way a competent pilot)

as a pilot i can say that anyone cand land a plane with tower information on ears. what a miserable documentary. plane lands by their own in all seconds. that bully had no power over the steering in last seconds as he said. only brakes. ONLY 🥳i knew this tvshow is crap but only now i’m sure.
