American Airlines pilot suffers heart attack during take-off, dies suddenly
Envoy Air flight 3556 returned to Chicago O'Hare International Airport shortly after takeoff on Saturday night, November 19th, 2022, after the pilot was incapacitated.
The pilot, Patrick Ford, was a captain in training and later died. The copilot, Brandon Hendrickson, a line check airman, flew the plane back and landed it safely.
Envoy Air is a regional carrier owned by American Airlines.
A user on YouTube comments:
"I was on this flight, it was terrifying. I thought we were going to crash after we started descending once we took off, no announcement til we touched down and the captain was pulled from the cockpit. There was a flight attendant and doctor doing chest compressions and using an AED. The pilot, who was 54 did not make it. They got us a new plane and we made it to Columbus at around 2 am."

The Federal Aviation Administration said it is investigating and a spokeswoman said that such incidents are rare. Perhaps the spokeswoman should say that such incidents WERE rare.
