After preparing so extensively for emergencies, when it does happen you are better able to switch into emergency mode and go through the steps you’ve trained for without having to stop and collect your emotions first. This video definitely shows how that training helps everyone be prepared and calm, and thus avoid making critical mistakes that could make the situation so much worse.

I remember working at telephone switch board in the army. I got a radiocall from the training field requesting to be forwarded to the medic center. They didn't answer. Then because the commander on the radio was so calm, I kept trying for a pretty long time. Days later, I learn that the person with whom I was talking on the radio, was injured by an accidental detonation of explosives. If I knew about the severity, I would imediatly have involved other parties to assist, as I had firedepartment in the next room, and MP and gate guards in the next building, they would have had vehicles, and been able to drive over to the medic center. Thinking back on how I think I should have responded differently: I think the responce from ATC should have been to: get the plane on the ground, and have paramedic stand by the runway, not to waste time taxi to the gate. Still I Understand it can be difficult to grasp the severity of a situation when the person calling in is that calm. When an aircraft has to return because the pilot is out, it might be that miute and seconds count. Just like a request for medic center from the army training field, where the handle explosives and weapons, should be considered emergency, unless stricly informed that it is not urgent.

As an EMT this is pretty confusing to me. I am very impressed by the professionalism of the pilot under these circumstances. Not many people come into the situation that someone dies right next to them, especially not coworkers and by far not in a situation where you HAVE TO manage so many things at the same time. And the person that died minutes ago is still sitting next to you for about 25 minutes I guess. This must be a horrific situation. I guess that the brain just switches from normal mode into an "just function and work on what happened later"-mode. But I wonder why Cpt. Ford was still in his seat the whole time. I would have expected that he was removed from the seat and given first medical treatment or resuscitation-efforts by medical trained crew members or if available medical trained passengers. I guess there are reasons for that. Could someone clarify?

You are doing that. Thus you are the one twisting. This is called context. Something which twice now over different things I have come under suspicion that you have no understanding of. It applies in language to. I suggest you learn it. As to your negativity. Venissia Johnson is correct. Your comment had cherry picked a piece of her comment and attacked it out of context of the original meaning and way she used it. You took a message of mourning and understanding and trampled all over it. This is very negative. A mistake is understandable, in fact I am not entirely sure your first comment can accurately be described as being negative because of it. But you didnt stop there when corrected and having it clarified. Instead you doubled down. Furthering your own negative input on the matter. Her comment wasnt even conveying any "truth" about heaven, but rather making a pleasing feel good wordplay with a bit of lighthearted humor and respect. Thus your follow up comments are no more than nonsensical nitpicking and serves no purpose other than to pointlessly attack. Rather you realize what you are doing before or not, now you cannot remain wholly ignorant of it after its been pointed out. I, by extension, am actually feeding into your negativity by explaining this at all. But despite appearances, I truly do believe you have no idea of what you are saying and you are not a simple troll.

As a former paramedic, I have had runs to our airport many times. If the pilot suffered a full cardiac arrest, 9.5 of those patients die. Even when everything goes in favor of the patient ie…CPR started, secure airway (intubation) and necessary drugs pushed. I’m sure a passenger who knew CPR, a nurse or even a physician on board was working the pilot. Those patients regurgitate and they would have no way to suction. So very many things need to happen. But if we get a “save” from a full arrest patient, it’s a great day for us. If God wants you home, there’s no earthly power to delay that. Maybe a Doctor/Nurse on board could see he was gone. Air traffic doesn’t allow for that type of message to go out over the airways.

I’ve imagined what I would do in this scenario before and this is more or less my gameplan: Declare emergency (I don’t want any misunderstandings, I need that immediate and priority return) I’ll get the cabin chief in to the flight deck to check on the incapacitated pilot (is he breathing, etc.) If CPR is needed, get him out if the seat and into the cabin. If cabin crew can’t lift him, find a stronger passenger to help. Tell ATC I need ambulance and stairs present at the aircraft when we stop. I’ll emphasis how important that the stairs are there. Get any handling company to bring out stairs or get fire and rescue to bring it, but it needs to be there. I’ll start the APU so I can shut down the aircraft’s engines after landing without losing power and cabin lights. If there is a high speed off ramp I’ll vacate the runway, but if not I’m stopping and staying on the runway (theres a limit to how sharp of a turn you can make from the right seat). After shutting down I expect the stairs to be present and attached to the aircraft immediately. If for some reason the stairs are not there but the ambulance is I’ll deploy a slide and send the body of the incapacitated pilot down to the medics so they can start proper treatment without any unnecessary delay. After that I’ll brief the passengers, check how the cabin crew is doing psychologically (they have been doing CPR on a friend and colleague, they might be traumatised), disembark the passengers when the stairs and bus show up and then get the aircraft towed to a gate/stand. Finally debrief the cabin crew and get them the support they need.

100% agree here. Had there been some interventional medicine once the flight stabilized at 5000ft for the downwind, Capt Ford may have been saved. The fact that the check pilot kept under control was good, there should have been a declared emergency, and those procedures mixed with basic first aid/life support probably would have saved a life. I'd be curious as to why no declaration of an emergency was made.

That being said, I dont really understand why he couldnt get the cabin crew or whoever (maybe even a passenger doctor) to start first aid on the pilot. One thing I have always learned is that every single second counts. Taxiing all the way to the Gate seems very time intensive to me 😕

@Saki again, CPR would have no effect. Even in the best circumstances, it fails 90% of the time. To remove the political safely, the aircraft would have had to be completely shut down. Those seats are very close to the console and with the center console, it would be extremely difficult to remove the pilot. You can Monday morning quarterback all you want, but until you are in his situation, you don't know what you'd do. The pilot made the right call and focused on the aircraft and passengers. His first priority is to aviate. To fly the plane safely.

Without all of the dangers involved with all of the other simultaneous aircraft operations, it would take paramedics nearly as long to drive out to the aircraft, make entry, and start rescue efforts; all while sitting on an active taxiway with cross traffic on the runways as it would to go to a gate. The more complex you make an operation, the greater chance of failure and danger to everyone, including ground crews, other flights in progress and the passengers on the plane.

From the medical side the immediate action is the best, of course. But in case of an emergency, another rule kicks in: Aviate. Navigate. Communicate. There has been a plane crash because a whole three man crew was distracted by a light bulb that was out of order. So the first task of the remaining pilot was to make sure the plane is flying right. You can't just pull someone out in the air, because the worst you can do: You touch anything you shouldn't touch in that altitude.
