Qantas A380 QF32 Captain Announcement

Supervising Check Captain Dave Evans announcing our incident to the passengers onboard

[leonkernan]

They should have used this in the Air Crash Investigation episode, the calm cool way that the pilot makes the announcement is awesome given whats going on.

[YortOK]

''The aircraft is secure at THIS stage'', that's what I call 'cool-headed'!

[jwcorcoran]

I've had this pilot Dave Evans captain one of my flights from SYD - LAX last year, most comforting sign ever to hear his voice on the PA

[khangbanh]

I read Richard's (the captain) books and mentioned you lots of times in there. Also few of your photos were featured in the book including one of him debriefing at the terminal. Awesome!!! 55A

Just reading the account of the incident "QF32" by the Captain Richard de Crespigny... outstanding airmanship by him and the cockpit crew...

[dixiebrick]

Quantas. Best in class. The mercedes Benz of air travel.

[agent.o]

This is not the captain who is speaking, but an another crew member : Captain de Crespigny's voice is way different from the one we hear during the vid.

[SillyPuddy]

Captain should have told everyone that things are *so* under control in fact, that he's enjoying tea and crumpets as he speaks, in his favorite cashmere socks!

[AlonsoRules]

The damage to the engine was unbelievable

[rapidthrash]

QA 32 is an excellent example of Crew Resource Management (CRM)

[FBMachine]

Yup, remain calm. ignore the GIANT FUCKING HOLES IN THE WING.

[Stringertech]

[woobyvr]
