Cool Creator Spotlight: Mentour Pilot

Lots of content creators like to focus on disasters and other sensationalist topics, but few actually explain what really happened or what results transpired. Mentour Pilot on YouTube is a commercial pilot who explains incidents with the aid of simulator footage and his professional experience.

Anyone can describe what happened, but few can analyze what led up to the incident and what specific opportunities there were to correct problems before they got out of hand. Aircraft crashes and close calls are scary, but the global aviation community tends to use each one to build better training, improve procedures, and hopefully prevent similar problems in the future.

He also does an excellent job explaining how good communication and adherence to procedures is vital to safely managing emergencies. He gives credit where credit is due when the crew demonstrates superb airmanship and task management under stress.

I dislike the title cards leaning into sensationalism, but there is a payoff and a point to the actual content. There is also a huge backlog of episodes, so if there is a significant incident, odds are it has been covered. There are also lots of other videos answering questions about being a pilot, pointing out oddities of designs along with explanations of why things are built that way.

If you have any interest in aviation, engineering, or just a morbid curiosity about aircraft crashes, this channel is worth a look.

The videos have sponsorships, but the host is still an active Boeing 737 pilot as far as I know.
