I’m a 747 guy but you have to admire the engineering of the A380s wings. The amount of weight that transferred to the fuselage landing gear and wings when the lift was lost must be immense.
once saw the documentary of an-225, and one of the experts said, when took off, the wings had to lift their own weight first, before lifting the whole plane.. and since an-225 had anhedral wings, you could clearly see in the video, how the wings became straight up seconds before v1... so yeah, those enormous wings of jumbos are really fascinating...
The A350 pilot didn't flare too late, he was fighting the terrible winds in LAX causing these fires in SoCal. Probably unstable gusts dropping him at the last second.
He was simply too slow and fell down like a brick. In gusty winds, you have to approach faster. For light aircraft, a thumb rule says to add half the windspeed to the approach speed.
@@tomg6284 I also have 3,500 hours and 9,000 landings. Fine weather says nothing as it allows gusty wind. But in Vienna, we sometimes even have gusty fog at CAT1 minimum. It is not an error to check the wind info from TWR even in fine weather. An experienced airline captain asked me why we were not flying with sailplanes. We had a 30kts gusty crosswind in fine sunshine.
@@gottfriedheumesser1994 I think tomg meant to put a comma after fine, didn't mean to say fine weather. This is a weather event here in Southern California that happens often, it's called Santa Ana winds. Gusts can hit 100+ kmh.
Always. I loved flying A380 every time. I went several dozens of times with it and it's so smooth always. Because of its size, even turbulences don't have much effect on the A380s
I was an aircraft mechanic with Delta Airlines for 32 years. I worked in aircraft heavy maintenance. Went on numerous test flights. Flying on a test flight of a Boeing 757, or 767, with only six or eight people aboard, and no cargo it gives meaning to "she climbs like a homesick angel". A 767-300 @700 lbs. below MTOW can fairly easily climb out at 5000 ft./min. It's not a rocket but it sure as hell acts like one. Now put enough Jet A on her for a two hour test flight, with a little reserve, and 6 people aboard, and you'll think you're sitting in a reclined Lazy Boy, in that first class seat on climb out.
Not sure I agree with the assessments of the first two - in both cases, I had the impression that conditions were very windy with sudden gusts. In fact, with all of these events, I did not see error but maximum pilot skill, and impressive levels of skill. Perhaps I'm wrong and some of you are seeing problems I'm not noticing.
I have often observed these flexible wings on the Airbus A380 as they hang down immediately after landing. In the example shown you can really see it particularly well.

Only Ryanair pilots are trained to the same standard as everybody else in europe. They actualy demonstrate their skill when landing the way the do as that is company proceedure not piloting ability. Why do you think Ryanairs's fllet is almost all 737's? Because they are designed to be landed like that.
@@jiubboatman9352no, they are not designed to be landed like that and it’s not company procedure. Ryanair is where pilots build flight time and move on to other airlines. So there is a high turn over, which means that their pilots have less hours. That doesn’t make the pilots unsafe, they are perfectly safe. They just don’t have the finesse that comes with experience.
Never mind Aerosucre. They never manage a regular takeoff. Late rotation, slow climbs, almost touching the airfield fence, etc. are no news for Aerosucre. We will be informed if Aerosucre makes a takeoff like the ones that other airlines do on a regular basis .
The 757 was the only airliner that really put me back in my seat. I mean, they all get up and go eventually, but the 757 was the only one that felt like a rocket.
That 757 takeoff is the average Ryanair takeoff, I'm convinced a good proportion of their pilot crew are ex-military. I would also enjoy more takeoffs like that (experienced a couple and they're excellent) but I also appreciate the airframes don't like it as much 😅
That A350 was fighting a strong headwind. Very strong. That touchdown was a bit firm, but without the head wind the plane never would have come back off the ground.
@@Vee8eleven tell you what, so you won’t embarrass yourself. A strong headwind does nothing to an airplane. As a matter of fact, it actually helps, because it reduces the groundspeed. This is why airplanes want and prefer a head wind. And the strong it is, the better. Now, having gusty winds is a different story. Because now the wind is not a steady state. Cross winds can also be a problem, if it’s a strong wind. Then we have the windshear. Somehow, on RUclips, everybody always screams: “it’s windshear”. Windshear doesn’t happen often. But when it happens, the airplane will tell the pilots there is windshear. When this alarm goes off, it’s an automatic go around. Not a pilot in the world would continue to land, it’s simply too dangerous. So, 99% of these RUclips videos that people say: “it’s windshear”, it’s actually just gusty winds. I hope you learned something.
I so wanted the pilot of the Jet2 B752 to do a barrel roll I could taste it. A wing-wave would have sufficed, though. Somehow Jet2 will never be the same without the 757… Boeings last and finest twin. さようなら G-LSAK, 安らかに眠る G-LSAC.
A350 = use sensors at front-wheels for intake-cone versus horizon (engine case versus left-right versus under nose-cone versus underbelly versus under wings) A380 = slats, leading-edge, behave like knife-edge to ram-air Flaps = take-off and landing and cancel-landing = aircraft model-type
right - adds a bunch of capability and flexibility but you pay for it at the pump. Super cool plane. Flew them a number of times with Northwest and then Delta. It's too bad Boeing couldn't make a case for an updated version, new wing, modern more efficient motors, etc, etc.
These videos would be better without the arm chair pilots popping off in these videos. On the other hand, I appreciate the comments below, because they give perspective and information.
Wow! I never realized the A380's wings would drop so much on landing, this angle really makes it obvious. Very cool effect.
❤
A couple of friends are 737 pilots, and they were stunned with the wing flex the first time they flew in the A380 (as passengers)
It's visible on a 737. On an A380, it's much more obvious.
Watching it from inside the plane is quite the view too. All big jets flex, but the A380 is extra.
Yeah it's called unloading the wings
I’m a 747 guy but you have to admire the engineering of the A380s wings. The amount of weight that transferred to the fuselage landing gear and wings when the lift was lost must be immense.
Yea, seeing metal bend like that, even if it's designed to, makes me nervous!

The 747 and A380 I believe are the two aircraft Airbus and Boeing guys agree on I think.
Pilots love flying the 757. It’s the ‘sports car’ of airliners. 😊
the 747 and the A310 are seconds!!
the -200 is…the 300 is a pig
People love flying it too. The best single aisle ever made. What a rocket and a blast to fly
You feel the power of its engines when you are pushed against your seat on take off! It gains altitude so quickly! I absolutely love flying in 757
If only the VC-10's were still in service :D

What about Aerosucre?
Massive winds on that A350 landing.
Not shocked it wasn't perfect.
Will that 757 have another role or is it off to the scrap yard, I like the 757
It’s gone to be scrapped 😢

as far as the A350 goes, you can't say it was a late input by the pilot...were you in the cockpit? Gust winds caused that!

Awesome
757 short-field take-off is the winner!
Those pitch oscillations were pilot induced.
whats going on with Corean pilots anyway ? are they willing to fly or not ?

Looked more like wind shear than late flair.

Wings are made to be flexible . If they WEREN'T they would BREAK FROM INFLEXIBILITY !
