TS1 in real life

I just found this video and I’m worried that people like this exist and have not lost there pilots license. How did this end up happening? It just looks like a very high quality IF that has not lost the TS1 pilots. Also what is that blue helicopter thing trying to do flying over the runway like that. Anyway here’s the video.

KSAN TS1… the old days… Oh, those Cessnas nosediving whilst an A380 lands on the other end of the runway.

Literally looks like a classic TS1 scene.

There we go I was just cancelling my jet2 tickets for in a few months. If private pilots do that I have no faith in budget airlines pilots.

Just kidding to all you people that work for budget airlines you made the common person be able to afford to fly.

Uncontrolled field… meaning no control tower. Planes can really land either way. Even though winds might favor a different runway. Had this happen to me numberous times morning new

I hate when this happens on TS1, especially when your controlling and that one person insists on wanting to land on the opposite of the runway.

That happened at KSFO a few days ago. This pesky Virgin A340 pilot wanted to land at 28R despite being told unable 😡

At least he lunged; if it was on TS1 it would have landed even with the other coming against and passed inside the biggest stick face. 😂

Oh dear. It reminds me of the time when we had these things called “regions” and there was an airport by the ICAO of “KNUC” ? Idk. It feels like that…

😕🤔🤔

At least the pilot pulled up and went around… if this actually was in TS1 he would insist on landing while the other aircraft was on the runway… 😂
