Ah I was just wondering your thoughts on it if you had seen it. Basically he posits that most accidents are due to bad communication in the cockpit and he’s exploring at how to better train pilots to communicate
Cockpit Resource Management is a crucial skill for the modern flight crew, especially during higher workload phases of flight. At one point they called it “Crew Resource Management” but altered the branding when they started applying it to single-pilot operations as well. It’s not only effective communication with other members of your crew but other aircraft and air traffic control as well.
You should check it out, it’s ostensibly a comedy show but it’s much more…I dunno, human experience exploration? He’s got a bunch of reenactments of actual final logs from downed flights and the conversations recovered from the black box. Crazy what some of the pilots say
But yes, in the semi-rare event you find yourself approaching another aircraft of the same maneuverability head-on, you are to both avoid the collision by turning right.
Pilot here. We just say left and right and don’t bother with port and starboard.
Usually you also know in which direction is front on a plane lol
On a ship it might get more confusing sometimes, so I see the reason there at least somewhat
Have you seen the Nathan Fielder special The Rehearsal up on HBO? It’s specifically about pilots and how to potentially reduce airplane crashes
I taught flight school at a busy uncontrolled airport for 2 years.

I mean you lost me at “HBO.”
I stand corrected.

I saw a training video about that, that’s how I know.
