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

04-APR-2023. An American Airlines Airbus A321 (A321), registration N143AN, performing flight AAL2611 / AA2611 from Chicago O’Hare International Airport, IL (USA) to Los Angeles International Airport, CA (USA) shortly after takeoff reported bird strike, declared an emergency, reported heavy vibration coming from undercarriage and some other issue. The crew requested a low approach to do a visual inspection from the ground. After the low approach the pilots reported generator failure and green hydraulic system failure. The Tower informed that they had found 3 ducks on the runway. Subsequently the crew decided to return to O’Hare. After landing the airplane stopped on the runway and remained there for about 42 minutes.

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.
