An El Al Boeing 737-800, operating flight LY-347 from Tel Aviv (Israel) to Zurich (Switzerland), was on approach to Zurich about to intercept the localizer for runway 14 when the crew suddenly was unable to communicate with ATC on all three radios, set the transponder to loss of communication and continued for a safe landing on runway 14 about 10 minutes later. The aircraft vacated the runway and taxied to the apron behind a "Follow Me" car.
The aircraft was able to depart for the return flight after about 100 minutes on the ground and reached Tel Aviv without further incident.

IMPORTANT:
This video is all about education. It's designed to give aspiring pilots and air traffic controllers a taste of real-world situations through example scenarios and helpful info. But that's not all! Current pilots and controllers can also benefit by listening to real radio communications from around the globe. This helps them stay sharp and think about how they might handle similar situations in the future.
To create these videos, I keep my ear to the ground on major aviation news and events. I check the dates and time zones to see if I can find recordings of the radio conversations. Then, I become a bit of a broken record myself, listening to them repeatedly to create subtitles and identify key moments. Finally, I whip up some animations (or grab them from ADS-B websites) and pull it all together into a neat package.
