This is why I that there should be 'importance' departure and approach cones regarding the both the data and voice recorders so that they do not record over themselves at critical points during the flight, and or if something happens that needs to be kept for reference. My idea was always, to have a secondary tape running in parallel that would be activated in the event of an error, or a justification of some sort in order to preserve information in cases such as this. There are literally thousands of instances where the voice recorder and data recorded have been overwritten and information is lost that could be deemed as important.

I was in the room and something flashed by the window about 200 yards away and then I heard a loud splash. From the room I couldn't see what hit the water but a few min later I went to a location where I could see the entire bay from the Hotel and a single engine Piper was in the water nose down and sinking. Four people were in the water by the aircraft and all survived the ditching. A week later on another layover I bought my snorkel gear and dove on the wreck in about 15' of water.

You explain aviation so well I'm starting to believe I can fly . The work you do is so good, you're bringing aviation into the mainstream. One humble suggestion if you're looking into expanding your content repertoire is to share with us interesting developments in aviation history from your perspective that have had profound impact on the industry. Again, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

Been watching you're content for a while now. I really enjoy airplane stuff and as a child tried anything in an attempt to fly. I'm not really an aviation geek, but really enjoyed this video! Pretty cool to see the airline making safety recommendations. The safety environment around aviation is really cool and quite frankly should be a role model in many other industries!

Talk about the perfect storm (no pun intended) of variables that build up to create a situation like this, like the hotels roof shape and orientation that made it similar to the runway. Really highlights the importance of procedures and required rules for specific airports during different phases of the flight.

White roof makes a lot of sense for the hotel because they have to cool the building a lot and having white roof reduces the heat input. Adding two red flashing lights would make a lot more sense - probably cheaper to implement and better safety during poor weather.

That's pretty common. For instance as far a boats shooting at each other before 1950, Drachinifel is THE channel. He is very knowledgeable and quite funny. Dry British wit, which makes it much more enjoyable. He's about at the same views as Mentour or take boats before 1950 that don't shoot at each other Oceanliner Designs and Big Old Boats are the premier channels. Both are of the same quality as Mentour so I recommend a watch if you like old steamships. The famous one features heavily of course but others too. The audience for this sort of stuff is just smaller. Many come to KZitem for light entertainment and not for education. Or take current military matters, where a lot of garbage narrated by robots get millions of views while the Mentour equivalent of that field Perun, has a lot less views. But still all those channels are growing and have captured many who wouldn't have thought they would be interested in airliner operation, suboptimal battleship design, or tales from the age of steam and iron or hour long PP presentations on logistics. But there is a growing number of extremely high quality channels such as Mentour Pilot or Oceanliner Designs that even a few years ago wouldn't have been imaginable, when the best you got was some made for TV documentary with bately accurate information, dramatic music and sensationalisation beyond anything reasonable. Or biased as hell. Also I think a lot of these channels share subscribers. The type of person interested in how an inadvertent deployement of slats causes a liner to almost crash is likely to be interested in how the rudder on Titanic was steered by a compination of electrical signals and two steam engines that could be started and stopped precisely and quickly enough to steer a giant 100 ton rudder in turn holding the forces of a 46000 ton ocean liner turning (a little too slowly in some cases). And the same people are likely to want their current events analysed by an actual subject matter expert and not bobbleheads reading from a teleprompter (HI Sutton for instance and of course almighty Perun). So you'll probably enjoy those too even if the subject is different. It's just fascinating to listen to subject matter experts and something that used to be rare. If you didn't work in a field you wouldn't have access to say an airline pilot (and training instructor) explaining every nuance of aviation alongside some nice graphics and delivered 2-3 times a week at no cost, besides maybe 30 s in adds from YT and one sponsor read, which is a lot less annoying than the multi-minute TV ads that seem to get mote absurd by the day, with the product barely featuring and instead pseudo-philosophical garbage being read by a failed actor.

Many years ago I would bid that trip because we had a 36 hour layover at the Maho Reef Hotel there. This was back in the DC-10 days before LNAV/VNAV approaches. We would arrive at night and in low vis we only had the old dive and drive method. I often laid in bed at the hotel wondering if someone would wander off course or get confused by the lighting in the entertainment area adjacent to the airport.
