Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

What do I do?

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

And so he's very mindful, very busy, very alert.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

The heart rate goes up.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

Same for pilots.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris

Very complex.

And so during the takeoff, you are moving from phase to phase to phase, and your response is going to be different.

So you have to be sharp.

You've got to be sharp.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

The heart rate's up, but not from fear.

#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

They're not anxious.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

They have a chronic unease for the status quo.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

Every takeoff, they're expecting an engine to fail.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

Sounds skeptical, pessimistic.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

But they're ready for the engine failure.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

No, I'd rather be that way.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#222 Richard de Crespigny: The Pilot Who Saved 440 Qantas Passengers

They're ready for the engine failure.

Straight Talk with Mark Bouris

If it happens, they go bang.
