00:00Imagine this, you are floating in the air at an altitude of 9,100 meters.

00:05Frightening, isn't it?

00:07But now, imagine that this altitude remains the same,

00:10but that you are inside the large metal tube of an airplane.

00:14Your flight is particularly long, and after drinking 6 glasses of water,

00:18you feel the pressing need to go to the bathroom.

00:20Ah, but when you get there, you find yourself facing an endless line of waiting.

00:25Then a strange idea comes to your mind.

00:28Each person in front of you will probably go hunting after using the bathroom.

00:33But you wonder, how can an airplane contain so much water?

00:36And what are all these waste?

00:38You hope, of course, that they will not be thrown away in the middle of the flight,

00:41to land on the cities upside down,

00:43crushing everything on their way.

00:45This thought makes you cold in the back.

00:47Fortunately, a pilot has raised the veil on this mystery.

00:51All the waste goes through a special plumbing located at the back of the aircraft,

00:55where they are stored in waterproof compartments.

00:58Once arrived at the destination, the ground crew is in charge of evacuating them.

01:03During a long flight, the hunt can be shot more than a thousand times,

01:07storing up to 1,200 liters of waste.

01:10Now, let's talk about this water.

01:12Have you ever wondered why there was no water in the toilet bowl of the plane?

01:17It's because you actually use suction toilets.

01:21Unlike the cabinets you have at home,

01:24the toilet bowl is not filled with water.

01:26When you shoot the hunt of your toilets, a siphon empties the bowl,

01:30and gravity then moves the water further into the evacuation system.

01:34But this approach would not work in a moving plane,

01:37because water would spill everywhere during the flight,

01:40especially in a region of high turbulence.

01:43And if the toilet bowl is not filled with water,

01:45you cannot use gravity or the siphon to empty it.

01:49Instead, when you shoot the hunt,

01:51a valve opens in the sewers,

01:54and the vacuum sucks the waste out of the bowl into a special reservoir.

01:58As suction does all the work,

02:00there is almost no need for water,

02:02or rather for this disinfectant liquid used in airplanes.

02:06This is why such a system requires only 2 liters of liquid,

02:09or even less, for a single evacuation.

02:12In comparison, water-saving toilets need 6 liters,

02:16and ordinary toilets require 20.

02:18Okay.

02:19We have understood how planes accommodate all the waste that accumulates during the flight.

02:24But let's imagine another situation.

02:26A cracked cockpit windshield.

02:28Generally, these are composed of two thick glass walls

02:32with a layer of plastic between them for insulation.

02:35Each of these windows is designed to withstand all the pressure,

02:38if the other were to collapse.

02:40Thus, even in the event of a crack, the plane remains safe.

02:43If such an incident occurs,

02:45the pilots generally reduce their altitude to reduce the pressure on the windshield,

02:49and if necessary, they can change routes.

02:52Very well. Now, let's talk about what we can do

02:56if there is a dangerous snake in the cockpit.

02:58You could say that I invent all this,

03:00or that I saw it in a film with Samuel Jackson.

03:03But this is a very real situation.

03:06A South African pilot had taken command of a small plane,

03:10with 4 passengers,

03:11and was flying at an altitude of 3,300 meters.

03:14When he noticed something that was really not supposed to be there.

03:18A cobra crawling under his seat.

03:21For a moment, he just fixed the reptile.

03:24Then, not wanting to cause panic on board,

03:27he very calmly informed his passengers of the presence of the clandestine passenger.

03:31The plane then had to make an emergency landing.

03:35In this case, the pilot chose to be honest with his passengers.

03:39But sometimes, the on-board commanders choose to replace the words

03:42that could make some people nervous,

03:45such as turbulence,

03:47with other expressions, much more mundane.

03:50If you want to be in the shot,

03:52here are some clues to take into account.

03:54If a pilot asks the crew to sit down,

03:57it is that a chaotic route is to come.

04:00Another term to note is

04:02we cross an air pocket.

04:04This famous air pocket

04:06is simply a way to describe the winds

04:08that shake your plane in different directions.

04:10But here is the subterfuge.

04:12The term air pocket is often less alarming than turbulence.

04:17And then there is what is called the meteorological zone.

04:21This term generally refers to a heavy rain

04:23or a storm located near the plane in flight.

04:27So don't be surprised if the commander announces to you

04:30we are approaching a meteorological zone that we are going to bypass.

04:33Ah, and while we evoke the mysterious language used by the pilots,

04:38here are some other examples.

04:40You could hear the on-board commander say

04:42Georges, pilot the plane.

04:44And no, he is not referring to his colleague.

04:47This is how we call the automatic pilot system of the aircraft.

04:52Georges is programmed to follow a certain route

04:55taking into account meteorological conditions,

04:57turbulence and altitude.

05:00Pilots usually trigger the automatic pilot

05:03once they have reached their cruising altitude

05:06or after flying for more than 10 hours,

05:08when they are supposed to rest.

05:11Sometimes, you can hear that there is a pilot in the subterfuge.

05:15It is not uncommon for a pilot who is not in service

05:18or another staff member to take a seat

05:21on a subterfuge when he returns to his base.

05:24Federal Aviation Administration inspectors

05:27can also travel in folding seats.

05:30Some airlines can even offer their seats to pilots

05:34working for the competition.

05:35And if you ask yourself the question,

05:38there is no link between the subterfuges and the wings.

05:41If your first flight was delayed

05:43and you are in a crazy race to catch up,

05:47you are what we call a runner.

05:50You could hear the crew members or ground staff say

05:54the runners are on their way.

05:56This means that some passengers are rushing to catch their flight.

06:00Unfortunately, if the departure time is tight,

06:02they can leave without waiting for the delay.

06:05If you hear a pilot say PAN-PAN,

06:08it is not a good omen.

06:09It indicates that problems are arising.

06:12Pilots use this term when they communicate

06:15with the air traffic control.

06:17This means that there is a problem with the flight

06:19and that the cockpit crew needs immediate assistance.

06:22When other pilots using the same radio frequency

06:25hear this signal,

06:26they interrupt all their communication

06:28and let the pilot PAN-PAN transmit his message.

06:323-5-9-ER

06:34No, this is not an ultra-secret code.

06:36It's just the way pilots pronounce some numbers

06:39in their pilot's English.

06:413 means 3, 5 and 9-ER

06:45is used instead of 9.

06:48This pronunciation aims to avoid radio communication errors

06:51and confusion resulting from numbers that are too similar.

06:54We end with some administrative formalities.

06:58If you hear the captain say this sentence,

07:00it does not necessarily mean that you will be late.

07:04Finalizing the formalities usually means

07:06reviewing the flight itinerary,

07:08checking the weight and balance of the aircraft,

07:10or even waiting for the ground crew to prepare the flight book.

07:14The final approach

07:15means something slightly different for pilots and stewards.

07:19The cockpit crew speaks of the final approach

07:22when the aircraft approaches the last part of the descent.

07:26For pilots, the final approach means

07:28that the aircraft is already aligned with the runway

07:30and that they do not need to perform maneuvers

07:32or additional turns.

07:34If a pilot refers to a convoy flight,

07:37it means that an empty aircraft,

07:39without passengers or cargo on board,

07:42is moved from one place to another.

07:44For the crew, it is a moment of relaxation.

07:47Convoy flights can occur

07:49when there is a technical problem with a line aircraft

07:52and that the pilots need to bring it back to its original base.

07:56But even if the flight is complete,

07:58the crew still has the opportunity to rest.

08:01Some Boeings are equipped with a dedicated space

08:04where the stewardesses and stewards can relax

08:06during their quarter of work.

08:08The door of this haven of peace

08:10looks like any other closet door.

08:13But once opened,

08:14you will discover a narrow staircase

08:16leading to a small room

08:18with two beds separated by curtains.

08:20There is also a space

08:22for the crew to hang their uniform.

08:25By the way,

08:26some pilots say that they do not like

08:27that passengers applaud at the landing of the aircraft.

08:31They explain that there is nothing extraordinary there

08:34since it is just their job.

08:36One of them even asks this rhetorical question.

08:38Do you applaud the factor

08:40when you receive your mail?

08:42You are not supposed to give drinks to your pilots either,

08:45even if you want to,

08:47because many of them find it weird.

08:50The notion of drinking is relatively new

08:52in the aeronautical industry.

08:54And although giving a drink to air stewardesses

08:57is becoming more common,

08:58giving a few coins to pilots

09:00is generally misunderstood.
