[quote=Anonymous]The rule for pilots is ‘Aviate, Navigate, Communicate.’ First goal: keep plane in sky. Second: find suitable landing destination. Third: talk about it (order of importance: ATC, flight crew, ‘people in the back’ aka you). I’ve been in a few emergency and non-emergency but abnormal situations, like aborted landings. With the actual emergency, we were told ‘I don’t feel comfortable with this engine’ and that was it; we landed 20 mins later (fire engines lining the runway). With the aborted landings, we’re told nothing until you’re back in the sky in holding position. Piloting a plane is busy work, chatting with the passengers is neither necessary nor encouraged in those situations. [/quote]
