00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:04.290
TOM: "Everyone else on the plane is unconscious.
You are the only one who can land it.

2
00:00:04.400 --> 00:00:07.409
And you've never flown a plane before. What do
you do next?"

3
00:00:07.660 --> 00:00:11.311
I'm at Virtual Aviation's million-pound simulator
in Cambridge,

4
00:00:11.460 --> 00:00:14.470
with Morag and Matt, and my job is simple.

5
00:00:14.580 --> 00:00:16.960
Land the plane, and show you how to do it
too.

6
00:00:17.080 --> 00:00:18.522
You know, just in case.

7
00:00:18.620 --> 00:00:21.829
And don't forget, this is part of Comic Relief's
School of YouTube.

8
00:00:21.980 --> 00:00:23.480
Everyone here's given their time for free
to make this happen,

9
00:00:23.560 --> 00:00:28.770
but remember we're doing this to raise money
for children worldwide

10
00:00:28.880 --> 00:00:31.700
who have limited or no access to education
at all.

11
00:00:31.780 --> 00:00:34.009
Details of how you can help are on screen
now,

12
00:00:34.060 --> 00:00:36.140
and if you can donate, please do.

13
00:00:36.340 --> 00:00:38.430
All right. Let's land this thing!"

14
00:00:39.940 --> 00:00:42.820
GORDON BURNS: "Tom, then, on his approach
to London Heathrow Airport."

15
00:00:42.820 --> 00:00:45.211
"Very strong crosswinds to contend with."

16
00:00:45.800 --> 00:00:48.300
TOM: "Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa..."

17
00:00:48.300 --> 00:00:50.999
GORDON BURNS: "So, wrestling a bit with the
control column."

18
00:00:51.160 --> 00:00:54.140
"Bringing it back to centre only stops the
roll continuing,

19
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:55.830
he needs to nudge it the other way to get
on course."

20
00:00:55.830 --> 00:00:57.510
TOM: "I'm way too high. Pull the thrust ba--aack!"

21
00:00:59.540 --> 00:01:03.100
GORDON BURNS: "Swaying in the wind, and he
reduces the thrust

22
00:01:03.100 --> 00:01:04.509
to get the nose down."

23
00:01:05.060 --> 00:01:08.211
"But I think it's too much, he's coming in
too low."

24
00:01:09.180 --> 00:01:10.340
COMPUTER: "Pull up!"

25
00:01:10.340 --> 00:01:11.500
TOM: "I'm trying!"

26
00:01:11.500 --> 00:01:13.240
GORDON BURNS: "There's the warning system,
ordering him to pull up,

27
00:01:13.240 --> 00:01:15.850
and he has got the nose back, but is it enough?"

28
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:17.940
"Is he going to land short of that runway?"

29
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:21.610
"He's almost down, he is short and veering
left..."

30
00:01:23.340 --> 00:01:24.900
TOM: "That's technically on the runway!"

31
00:01:24.900 --> 00:01:27.180
GORDON BURNS: "Not on the runway, he's lucky
there's no building there,

32
00:01:28.240 --> 00:01:30.400
but he's got a problem, he doesn't realise
it, I don't think."

33
00:01:30.660 --> 00:01:32.120
TOM: "Ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

34
00:01:32.420 --> 00:01:34.060
TOM: "Why are... why are we not stopping?"

35
00:01:34.060 --> 00:01:36.480
GORDON BURNS: "But he has accidentally disabled
the auto brake,

36
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:37.779
so he's not going to stop."

37
00:01:40.660 --> 00:01:44.040
TIM TAYLOR, INSTRUCTOR: "And we've crashed."
(LAUGHTER)

38
00:01:44.080 --> 00:01:46.120
GORDON BURNS: "But not a bad effort from Tom."

39
00:01:46.140 --> 00:01:48.320
"Morag next. Can she do better?"

40
00:01:48.960 --> 00:01:52.111
"A set of lights next to the runway guide
her on height."

41
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:56.400
"If they appear white, she knows she's too
high. Red for too low."

42
00:01:56.820 --> 00:01:59.140
"But she's struggling here with the crosswinds."

43
00:01:59.140 --> 00:02:03.900
"Just needs to keep calm and nudge the 737
back on course, which she has done nicely."

44
00:02:04.520 --> 00:02:07.860
"And she'll be guided by those dials on height
and direction."

45
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:09.600
COMPUTER: "Sink rate!" (ALARM) "Pull up!"

46
00:02:09.600 --> 00:02:12.010
GORDON BURNS: "She is correcting, correcting
too much,

47
00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:14.960
she needs to pull up again."

48
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:18.800
"And now she's overdone that too, so she's
very high now."

49
00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:23.580
"With the runway ahead -- there it is, she's
supposed to be down on that runway,

50
00:02:23.580 --> 00:02:25.060
so she's in trouble here."

51
00:02:25.060 --> 00:02:27.420
"This plane is getting
away from her at the moment,

52
00:02:27.420 --> 00:02:30.500
automatic emergency instructions getting
a bit frantic with her now,

53
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:34.240
we are on our way down and there's only one
way this flight will finish,

54
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:35.070
and it's not good."

55
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:37.520
"Finally, it's Matt at the controls,

56
00:02:38.600 --> 00:02:40.920
and looking good in these early stages."

57
00:02:41.540 --> 00:02:46.290
"The flight director instrument showing him
he is almost bang on the descent path."

58
00:02:47.380 --> 00:02:48.760
GORDON BURNS: "And he needs to follow the small,

59
00:02:48.760 --> 00:02:49.520
MATT: "Oh, hello!" (LAUGHS)

60
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:51.080
purple diamonds with the control column

61
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.340
and that will keep him on course."

62
00:02:54.700 --> 00:02:58.440
"And he is very much on course at the minute,
using the thrust lever skillfully there

63
00:02:58.500 --> 00:03:01.130
to adjust his height. He's keeping calm."

64
00:03:01.700 --> 00:03:05.920
"Just small inputs on the controls keeping
him pretty much on line."

65
00:03:07.480 --> 00:03:10.660
"And he's heading straight for that runway,
he seems pleased at that."

66
00:03:10.660 --> 00:03:12.980
"This is a really good approach, easy does
it now..."

67
00:03:12.980 --> 00:03:16.480
"Is he going to miss the runway, surely not,
tilting left a bit... and...

68
00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:20.090
that was probably the wing clipping the runway,
but he is down."

69
00:03:20.420 --> 00:03:24.240
"And now on the rudder pedals to steer it
back towards the runway."

70
00:03:24.600 --> 00:03:28.150
"And that, Matt, was a very good effort."

71
00:03:28.150 --> 00:03:30.940
"So at the end of the round, at the end of
the contest,

72
00:03:30.940 --> 00:03:32.300
Matt is the clear winner."

73
00:03:32.900 --> 00:03:34.120
MATT: "I think I landed that!"

74
00:03:34.440 --> 00:03:37.160
TIM TAYLOR, INSTRUCTOR: "Good! Yeah, you did! That
was the best one out of the lot."

75
00:03:37.160 --> 00:03:38.480
MATT: "Yaaaay!" (CHUCKLE)

76
00:03:38.480 --> 00:01:40.660
TIM TAYLOR, INSTRUCTOR: "You're the only one
to have made touchdown on the runway."

77
00:01:40.660 --> 00:03:42.880
(LAUGHTER)

78
00:03:42.880 --> 00:03:46.480
TOM: "If you're ever the only one who can land
a plane, that is how you do it."

79
00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:47.860
"And if you've learned something, then please,

80
00:03:47.860 --> 00:03:49.880
help someone who hasn't got that chance."

81
00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:53.140
"£5 could help a Zambian orphan go to school
for a month

82
00:03:53.140 --> 00:03:56.440
and get a meal every day there. Perhaps the
only meal that they'll get

83
00:03:56.720 --> 00:04:01.560
so please, pick up the phone, click the link
on screen, and donate if you can."

84
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:05.940
"Thank you to Virtual Aviation, thank you to
Gordon Burns for the wonderful voiceover,

85
00:04:06.020 --> 00:04:08.810
and thank you to Comic Relief for setting
all this up."

86
00:04:09.260 --> 00:04:11.780
"That is how you land a plane in an emergency."

87
00:04:12.200 --> 00:04:18.600
