That will help... a bit. But... now, engine 2 failed. And boink, autopilot disconnect. Hello aviators, how are you today? My name is Magnar Nordal. I am an ATR instructor, and I've flown this aircraft for 25 years. I'm in an ATR 72-600 simulator, and I put it at 10 000 ft, and approaching Dubai. And I will demonstrate something I hope you will never ever experience as a pilot, and that is a flame mode on all engines. In this case, ATR has two engines; both will fail. I program the simulator to fail one (engine) at 9 500 ft and the other at 8 000. I also set up the first officer's switching for the attitude/heading reference system and air data computer, which means I can use autopilot for the remainder of the flight. So let's pretend, and cleared to descent, for example, 3 000 ft, and select vertical speed mode, 1 000 ft per minute should be good. We have Dubai in front. I put on the GoPro for a while. I'm running out of battery on the GoPro, but I can film a bit of it. Reduce speed. I forgot to reduce power. So, what the auto-pilot told me: Watch out. Okay, I have Dubai airport down on my side and I will do this recording in one take, so you can see I'm not cheating. And we (are) passing 9 500. Engine (#1) lost torque, and got a lot of alerts, and engine NH goes down. My memory actions will be, I will... Power lever number one to flight idle. When NH is below 30%: Yes. Okay. I feather the propeller number one, that reduces the drag. The propeller will stop and shut off. I lost generator, bleed air, air condition 1. Still, no big panic because I have still one engine. I will send a PAN call to Dubai ATC and tell them I would like to land at the airport. And I'm already on a kind of a downwind, and I think I will fly overhead. Let's see how that works. And the first officer will go through the checklist, which I'm not going to do. I can increase the power on the other engine. That would be a good idea. I can set max continuous thrust. That will help a bit. But... now... now, the engine 2 failed. And boing. Autopilot disconnect. And I lost my primary flight display. I had to trim the aircraft out. More failures. Display switching. Now, I know I will have to reduce my speed. So, I can just maintain altitude more or less. I will cross overhead the airfield. Always fly first. And I will set manual target speed. Minimum speed is 130. I set 140. That's the minimum maneuvering speed where you can use a normal bank angle. Continue flying. And now to reduce drag, power lever number 2. That's the alert for the landing gear. Funny. Feather, and fuel shut off. Trim is okay. I crossed overhead the runway.

I'm quite high. Approaching 6 000 ft. I will make a shallow turn, maybe to this heading. I can, in fact, use the autopilot. Maybe 500 ft per minute in descent. There it is. I select auto select above so it will not level off against my will. I'm a bit close. I can go a little further out. And approaching 6 000. Here is a rule of thumb. This aircraft has a glide ratio of close to 15 to 1. And that means for each meter I descend, I will travel 15 m out. And I can use that knowledge to calculate my glide ratio. I'm passing 6,000 just now. Indicated air speed mode. And that means from this altitude, I can glide 15 nautical miles. So, let's use that to our benefit. I also see Dubai airport. I will turn downwind. I think I have a good distance out. It's important not to go too close, but of course, don't go too far out either. Field in sight. Dubai has two runways. They a bit staggered. I'm intending to land on the runway 12 Left. As a backup, I have 12 Right. And we have an emergency. So, the tower will clear both runways and the airspace around us. So, we have everything for ourselves. When we lost so many systems, for example, I have something called TLU. And showing fault. I have to select "low speed"; that controls the rudder movement. So I set it to "low speed". It takes a little time to move. If I don't do that, the rudder barely moves on landing, and I have limited control already. So, therefore, it's important. Now, the light went out, and I am good with the rudder. I don't have main hydraulic pumps. They are gone. So what I do, is for the flaps, it's powered the blue hydraulic. I have an extra pump on my side. And let's see. I still at 4 000, but I cannot go too far out. The airport is 5 miles away. I turn a little. The simulator has limited visibility on the behind. In aircraft, you can see further than in the sim. Now I see part of the runway, airport. I can also cross the center line. I can make S-turns and do the best out of it. But I need space for that. And back to the blue hydraulic system; for the flaps, I will set... This light fell over. Let's see if I can get it back. Maybe that works. Okay, then I can set flaps 15. See, let me turn a little more. Just so I see the airport. That's quite important. 3 400 ft. I can glide five miles. Sorry, seven miles. It's time to turn cross-wind (I meant base leg). There it is. Oh, still high. That's good. We can set flap 15. (Activate) the pump, and select flaps 15. The pump runs for 30 seconds. It's a backup for the blue system. For the landing gear, there is no hydraulic backup. And I will... Let's see. I think I can turn final now. 2 700 (feet), five miles. I am high. Landing gear down. I pull this handle up. I can also make an S-turn.

I don't need the flight director. Set it to standby. A little fast now. Let's see. Let's turn towards the runway again. The landing gear will of course... (showing red lights). I should have the lever down; then the red lights go out. That's better, isn't it? Am I (at a) safe altitude? Yes. Okay. Flaps 30. I can even reach... the right runway, But I'm okay. If I land, touch down in the middle of the runway, it's a good landing. I never want to get short, right? So now we have flaps 30, gear down. Yaw Damper goes off. That's quite important. Okay, this will be a long landing. Just relax. Don't panic. It's a long runway. And I don't have normal brakes, but I have... I can use the aux pump for the nose wheel steering. And I have emergency brake: parking brake lever set to emergency after touchdown. So far, nose wheel steering. I activate the blue hydraulic pump now. And speed is good. The center line and touch-down. Oops. We weered off. I don't know why. Okay. I take the nose wheel steering. Except for that strange behavior after touchdown, it worked well. Okay, we stop here and wait for a tow truck. So, that was an emergency landing. Not perfect, but good enough. And if you have flown gliders before, that would be a good benefit. I haven't done that for 20 years or so. Okay, as usual, a big thank to the supporters of this channel and to all of you. Thank you for watching. Have a wonderful day, and happy landing.
