Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel!
The landing flare, also referred to as the round out, is a maneuver or stage during the landing of an aircraft.
The flare follows the final approach phase and precedes the touchdown and roll-out phases of landing. In the flare, the nose of the plane is raised, slowing the descent rate and therefore, creating a softer touchdown, and the proper attitude is set for touchdown. In the case of conventional landing gear-equipped aircraft, the attitude is set to touchdown on the main (front) landing gear first. In the case of tricycle gear-equipped aircraft, the attitude is set to touchdown on the main (rear) landing gear. In the case of monowheel gear-equipped gliders, the flare consists only of leveling the aircraft.
In parachuting, the flare is the part of the parachute landing fall preceding ground contact and is executed about 15 feet (5 m) above ground.
During a helicopter landing, a flare is used to reduce both vertical and horizontal speed to allow a near zero-speed touchdown.

Wow Joe at this point you are teaching us how to fly planes without going to Flight School 😂
yeah why not¡🙂
someday it would provide more material from noobs bouncing planes off the runway🤣
Is captain Joe's ground school 101
that was funny
@@pelgrin21 😀😀
I take notes for flight sim! Haha!
I'm not a pilot but have traveled extensively as a passenger. I've learned to appreciate a pilot who makes a greaser landing such that you don't even know the wheels are down. On the way out of the plane, I will stop and congratulate the flight crew and pilot!!
And how do you congratulate the crew and pilots? Clapping? No, that means hate to the pilot in aviation.
A respectful passenger, I love it!!!
@@flywithcaptainjoe I very much agree I always wanted to co gratulate the crew with great landing even though I'm not a pilot😂😂
I enjoy every flight I go on very well done by the pilots that having a very responsible job, they try to keep it a very enjoyable flight
This is how I congratulate the crew and pilots, I usually say "Another happy landing and thanks to the nice crew!"
I'm not a pilot & I'm happy with the quote “A ‘good’ landing is one from which you can walk away. A ‘great’ landing is one after which they can use the plane again.”
I was a passenger on a flight to YYZ and it was the best landing ever. There was only a VERY SLIGHT vibration as the main gear touched down and then reverse thrust came on. As the plane slowed down the captain announced the following, "That....ladies and gentlemen.....is how you land an L-1011." The entire cabin erupted into cheers and applause.
That was a whole ago...
the amount of times joe has helped me in flight simulators are staggering
Makes me happy😉
😎😎😎
@@flywithcaptainjoe you really love that wink emoji 😉
Imagine if Joe does a relationship advice channel😄
@@johnbar6975 Imagine
'Or it's the complete opposite, and your landing becomes a youtube sensation'.
Lmao 🤣
@@flyingwithkaza lol
As my instructor was saying: "This is one of the things we can not teach, you have to get the feel for it." And it is true, my landings were getting better and better with each lesson. Practice is the best teacher!
Hello I saw your profile and I like it so I guess if we can chat to know each other on hangout or email, vanessamark433@gmail.com
On my streams, we call soft landings as "Greasy Peasy" . Beautiful Video!
These are what I say:
Smooth- “he greased it” or “niiicceee” or “butter”
Firm- “he put it down”
More than firm- “ he pancaked it”
Anything worse- I squint, say “oooffff”, and laugh a little bit because I think of the passengers and what that flights crew members are thinking.
Thank you😉
Then there’s carrier landings, where you’re essentially slamming down onto the deck with no flare whatsoever.
@@TAVideos786 fly United those landings are hard as hell oh my god
@@michaelmurray7199 Don't miss the hook!!
What is the connection of the flight number
The pain you see going through Joe when he sees the 747 smashing into the ground, awesome :D
I love it that he is showing ryanair at 0:53
I swear this video came at the perfect time. This is literally the one thing my instructor told me I have to nail to be able to solo. His exact words were "you do everything perfectly, just land softer". Thank you so much for the insight Joe
Ryanair be like: Imma pretend I didn't see that
Fuck!!!! I was gonna write the exact same thing LOLLLL!!!
*Manual says flare before touchdown*
Ryanair pilot: "... and I took that personally."
Smooth landings cost extra.
B747 on the thumbnail: Smooth landing today am I right?
Ryanair: B747 teach me how to land smoothly
@@ConstantlyDamaged legend has it that there is a bucket next to the aircrafts door during boarding where the passengers are supposed to throw in some cash. But the “crowdfunding goal” seems to never have been achieved
This will be very helpful for impressing my friends in microsoft flight simulator
Lol and me in impressing my friends in X-Plane 11
Same 😂
Hell, I'd be happy if this made me impress AirForceProud69
See above. You don;t "feel" a simulator. For that reason, I've wlays found it more challenging to "fly" a simulator that fly an aircraft!! Note on of the inset videos of a landing in the 172. Note that the yoke is all over the place approaching and into the flare. That is the pilot "feeling" for the runway.
@@crsvetteii1753 There are benefits to adding simulator time to augment actual flight time training, but it should never be used in lieu of actual flight time training. For instance, if weather condition don't permit actual flying, that's a perfect time to hit the simulators. But it should never replace actual flight hours.
Thank you for featuring Philippine Airlines, the pride of our country. Much love here from the Philippines
The flare is my biggest challenge right now. I love how straightforward and understandable your explanation is. Great for flight simmers!

0:59 classic music, classic scene, classic landing, You know what that means
Hey Joe nice video. You really explained a proper step by step procedure, where my instructors never taught me how to flare properly and have always yelled at me for making bumpy landings. Thank you 🙏🏻 This was really helpful.
Soft landing: OH MY GAWD
Hard landing: GO AROUND AND STILL TOUCH DOWN SOFTER ON THE OTHER END OF THE RUNWAY THEN OVERRUN
Crash landing: Imean, we landed, did we not?!?!
Or, as Sully said, "it wasn't a crash, it was a controlled landing on water"!
“Any landing that you can get out alive is a good landing
Any landing that you can get out and still fly the same plane is a GREAT landing”
I’ve definitely butchered that saying
@@astupidmidge you know what they say taking off is optional landing is mandatory. How you do it is still a option. Plummeting at mach 0.8 nose down to the earth will take your plane down. It will be the last thing you do with that plane.
RYANAIR!!!!!!!!
Finally seeing a PH Airlines in your videos! Proud Filipino here!
😊
PH airlines-
that sounds kinda sus ngl bro
Oo nga eh nakakatuwa
nice
Only one word to this video... WOW!!! Keeping in mind soft landing is not a priority, it is good to see a renown Captain teaching or giving wonderful tips about soft landings using a flight sim. We flight simmers appreciate that a lot. We thrive all over on the youtube to learn how to make soft touchdown, and finally, we have the perfect one now. 👍🏻
After one bouncy landing, the lead flight attendant said on the PA system, "well, that was a landing". She obviously didn't want to criticize her co-workers but it was rough and probably couldn't have gone uncommented altogether.
Very interesting but this particular video was way over my head 😬 Keep up the mega videos Joe 👊
Joe! What a surprise to find you on this channel! 😅 I miss you on the Carwow clips. Cheers mate
i think these vids are aimed more at simmers/gamers looking to hone their skillz
at least i am one :)
Would like to see a video on how to use the flight computer to setup basic flight plans from the cockpit and how to pick a runway midflight and setup to land on :)
Loved this video. A good mix of technical information and visual adds.
How can you end up here Joe?
5:43 Oh boy, a Wamos 747. I miss them so much. I used to be a flight attendant for Wamos until Covid started. Hope they are OK and ready to work this summer. :( I've flown so many times in that Jumbo...
Another superb flying lesson from the great Captain Joe. You have my respect, sir.
I will never forget how smooth landing when I first arrived US through SFO on UA’s B747 form NRT Japan.
I can’t even felt landing is happening when touch down it just like “ fly to runway and keep flying on the tarmac and slow down at the meaning “ .
That is so weird and I have never experienced that kind of jaw dropping smooth landing again.
That happened in sep 1st 2003.
That is art.
In Brazil we call a hard landing a "catrapo", and a soft landing we say that the pilot "alisou a pista" (smoothed the runway)... Usage in a sentence: One of your collegues did a "catrapo" here in Curitiba, and it grounded the LX-NCL for a few days back in September 😂 (ruclips.net/video/MICLoDWYxzk/видео.html)
Hey! I’m Brazilian, how are the hour requirements and job availability in Brazil? I’m doing my training in the US and was looking to go back to Brazil to time build after my Commercial Multi rating. Can you get a job with about 300 hours there?
@@h3sh926 right now it's almost impossible to get a job on aviation here in Brazil (at least on the bigger airlines and charter companies)... some expect the aviation industry to be a little more open here by mid-2022... But in a scenario without the pandemic, if you have a bachelor's (in any field, not only aeronautical sciences), usually the airlines hire you with about 300~500 flight hours... this number doubles if you don't have a bachelor's degree... (and you need to speak portuguese). BUT, if is only to build more flight hours, there's always opportunities on the North/Amazonia region (though it's very risky there, as the safety/security protocols are not very ensured there...)
@@h3sh926 for an example, here were the requirements of an (now defunct) Brazilian airline (but it's standard for the brazilian companies, the only thing that changes is the type rating) epicflightacademy.com/hiring-requirements-avianca-brazil/ this probably dates back from 2017, when the brazilian aviation industry was on its peak, and they were hiring literally everybody who applied (as you can see, they only required 200 flight hours... but again... 2020 fucked us over, and its definitely not like that anymore hahahahaha 😅)
aaaai😄
thanks for sharing!
@@merdapostagem5985 Thank you for that, I didn’t consider flying in the Amazon. I will look into that. 300 hours is incredibly low for the airlines when compared to the US’s 1,500 hours minimum requirement.
I do speak Portuguese too.
Ryanair pilots have a tradition - that when they land a plane they always go wrong :) btw good video as always...
I think u actually did THE PERFECT LANDING HERE. A soft touchdown, good approach and a quick flare. Ur rly a professional !
I’m currently working on landings at flight school. Couldn’t have been a more perfect time to upload this video. Thanks Joe!
How to perform a Butter eh?
Yep, watching pilot alexander when this popped up.
Who here wants Joe to open his own fly school?
He would have to lose that patronising tone.
He did. on youtube.

Great video Joe! Thanks for taking the time for novices like me!
That is a great video joe. Thank you! I am doing my CPL soon and this definitely helps me get the gist of smooth landing!
I have about 1700 hours on my flight sim and this is helpful practice!

Joe! Your videos are awesome! I love geeking out to them!
I am absolutely terrified of flying but these videos actually help me feel much better. Thanks Captain!
Finally I can explain my parents what I mean by flare on landing 😂 Thanks Joe!!
Who else likes the video before even watching because we already know its going to be really good. Keep up the awesome work captain!! 👍
Me😂😂😂
@@flywithcaptainjoe Where in the World do you fly Joe? Caroline from Norway. 😃🤷♀️✈
I always like the videos from subscribed channels before watching just because, why would I be subscribed to a channel if I didn't LOVE their videos?
@@Ktulu789 very true 👌👍
I like the Like button... But we need a HEART ❤️ button for certain videos too!
You know what... I took this advice and got a great landing in Flight Simulator, Thank you Captain Joe!
Very nice video, every time I get on a plane I always look forward to when the plane lands really well and softly. I assumed that a smart and experienced pilot would land the plane gently without shaking much. but the luck that accompanies the pilot also determines a good plane landing. and I really love seeing planes as they land at the airport. because the goal of every airplane that flies is to land somewhere else safely. Good job captain joe and safe your flight.
I look forward to that day, when the crew says: "Unfortunately has both the pilots got sck, do we have a Captain Joe subscriber onboard, so please come to the cockpit, we need to land the plane as fast as possible..." Ha ha ha.
Not fast, smooooooth! xD
Capetan joe love
Hello I saw your profile and I like it so I guess if we can chat to know each other on hangout or email, vanessamark433@gmail.com
Is anyone waiting to see if 74 Gear comments, "Hey, that was me" on that Atlas landing? :P
Don’t ask him how he knows!
I am not a pilot , i been travelling extensively as a passenger also i have learned a lots about landing takeoff etc, still learning more about engine and auto pilot etc, thanks Mr Joe , we are learning lots more from you and your experience , thanks a lot and keep going. reg R.menon
Magnifico video Tocayo!
I've found that my smoothest landings are achieved by performing a longer flare, but I'll only ever use that technique on runways with more than double the necessary space for me to land with moderate braking and flaps full.
swiss001 be like no, we just land fast and float to butter that way
It’s time for a video collaboration with him😉
@@flywithcaptainjoe lmaoooo he'll scream if you comment on his vid.
@@flywithcaptainjoe who can land smoother...
@@flywithcaptainjoe oh im excited!
@@Pies. Serbian pilots and that with damaged landing gear...😁
Thanks Capt, Nicely explained!!! Appreciate your time and sharing your expertise with us.
1:25 The resolution of that 747-8 image... OOOOOOOOF
I once landed our plane from a regional flight with a good flare. Passengers clapped and gave the flight deck a commendation by one of the passengers.
I’m a pilot on the A320 i kinda have my own technique for landing
I start the flair at 50ft but a slow flair
Then when i cut the power i keep pulling the side stick and let go a little i keep repeating that until the touchdown and i get really smooth landings 90% of the time
the captain allows u to do that?
@@brennnz5550 he's the captain lol
Beautifully explained! I don’t care what anyone says, it DOES deserve an applause if done well!!👏👏👏
Very good video Joe. Breaking it down in steps is very useful. Of course it is easier said than done.
0:30 yey philippine airlines
All 3 clips are just a normal days with Swiss001 because he operates big planes on short runway
I want to learn the fly. I love these videos!
Thank you for making this video, Joe! I'm an avid flight simmer and my landings have been awful lately. I'll try to put these techniques to use!
Hello I saw your profile and I like it so I guess if we can chat to know each other on hangout or email, vanessamark433@gmail.com
Soft: “butter” “finessed it” “greaser” “well put down”
Hard: “they hit the deck” “ooh, bet that stung a bit”
0:40 swiss001 butter 🧈
Wowww Captain !! cannot be more entertaining and informative in this easy fashion, for an aviation enthusiast. Great !!! Thanks for taking time and effort to make this video for all of us. Keep the good work going.
Back in the day, we practiced and practiced and practiced again (Three years with a Cessna 172, 8 years with a PA-32-260 Cherokee 6 and the Piper was much better at greasing the runway than with the 172. With a slight to medium cross wind the Cessna wasn't easy and in heavy cross wind, well, forget it......it was ouch ! We finally resolved the problem with a Cessna 185 on floats. (cross winds were rare events). Got to old, operating costs got worse and we gave up on flying (After 38 years) ! Great video !
Hey Joe, any chance you could give us a link to that Captain Joe livery, so that we could fly that beauty ourselves?
I totally hear you and I would love too, but there are some weirdos out there who will crash land the plane and upload on RUclips etc. I kinda won’t to prevent that. I hope you understand!
@@flywithcaptainjoe yeah thats completely understandable haha
Me at pilots license test. People there: ok here's you questions but you haven't gone to flight school? Me: I watched captain Joe! Them: WOW THAT WAS FAST! CONGRATULATIONS YOU GOT YOU PILOTS LICENSE!
...that's the way you are going to fail your license. unfortunately for you, you need to study and practice. watching youtube videos won't give you anything.
@@fgrion its a joke🙃
@@avi-nation7620 i hope so... you would be surprised on how many people think that watching youtube videos is enough.
@@fgrion it's a joke dumbass
You could say that the joke....flew over their head?
That wake turbulence on that Atlas 747
Love the video Captain Joe, keep doing what you’re doing. I’m in the process of o raining my PPL now and your videos are always educational and motivating.
That was so informative Captain Joe. This is the best tip for a better landing.
I always say "the pilot made a drilling for oil" when I see someone performing a hard landing
Reading "drilling for oil", thinking "oh, he made it so smooooth". Finishing sentence "O.o Not what I expected but now I get the point".
@@Ktulu789 hablas español? no entendi si lo decis por como redacté en ingles o si te referis a lo que pensaria el pasajero jajaja
How I say it:
Smooth landing: Butter
Hard landing: Ryanair
Examples: "Yes, I buttered this landing." "Whoops, Ryanaired it this time."
A landing should always be firm. A soft landing is pilot error as plane has floated long. Ryanair do landings by the book, perfect every time.
@@GeordieBoy69 Called a "Positive landing", good for wet runways
@@aviationchannel6204 yep wet runway should always be firm, to let the tyres cut thru the standing water. A proper hard landing puts the plane out of action as captain must pull a breaker and get the landing gear checked out. This causes delays but it must be done. Certain G forces on landing automatically send data to an independent company who then send the airline a detailed report. The airline must then check the pilots reports and if breaker is not pulled and gear check not done its likely the pilots could be sacked. Pilots do not know what that G rating is, nor do they get any idea its gone over. So pilots error on side of caution at all times. If it feels hard, get it checked otherwise it could be the end of job. So very few people have had a true hard landing before.
@@GeordieBoy69 I see many people shake the camera and scream during a butter landing and call it a "hard landing"
THANK YOU SO MUCH CAPTAIN JOE!!! I managed to land a 747 smoothly after following these tips! It require a lot of practice for sure and I finally did it! Thanks Captain!
Great video Captain Joe... more power...
Those dislikes were from Ryanair pilots
Soft landing = butter
Hard landing = Ryanair landing
as a ryanair pil- nah im just kiddin
I flew the 747-400 for several years. Joe’s information is exactly correct, nice job!
I am not even in the age to fly the Cessna .
I am watching your videos since 4 years .
It feels like I can just grab a b747 and fly it (SOLO)
Thank a lot as you explain everything as perfect as a friend.
Never gonna stop watching your videos
A good flare is like ballet.
A bad flare is like a drunk white guy dancing.
Racist
@@IBo99608 liberal blm shit
Joe get Swiss 001 who started the butter thing cos he made aviation much better like u
I'm in flight school atm, and I've been learning how to land (A.K.A the art of landing) and you nailed the explanation! I've had some hard landings and some soft landings, but I like to remark "Damn put her down quite rough" or "She's not gonna like that" on the hard landings. On smooth landings, it's "Buttery", "Silky smooth!" or just a good ol' "Oooohhh yeah! Nice and easy" and "Chefs kiss".
A great video indeed, thank you for all the great information, keep flying safe and travel greatly!
looking foward for your fourth stripe!!
Practice makes a man perfect...... I was not able to land a 737 smoothly but now after practicing 4 or 5 months I'm getting better and better.......... Thanks sir.👍👍👍🤩🤩
Joe ....you are absolutely fantastic in the way that you explain the things....to be honest you are my mentor and i love to watch every video that you upload and without being in flight school i do understand most of the terms and procedures !
You are amazing, Joe! thank you for all
Hello im Just 13yrs old An i Appreciate Having a simple vid For us From the Philppines 😍😍 And i've Been Always watching your vids and I'am Dreaming to be just like You 😍
Hi Joe, I am a student gyrocopter pilot, and I have just recently started doing the take offs and landings, so this video comes at the right time for me (although gyrocopters are rather different), and I would agree that the Air Berlin pilot was close to the point where a go-around may have been a better option, flaring is something we gyrocopter pilots have to do too, but obviously a gyrocopter has a much shorter landing run than a fixed-wing aircraft, we simply pull the stick back and let the rotors stop the aircraft, in the process of learning I am beginning to understand the workload that all pilots have, it takes a special kind of person to fly an airliner, and be responsible for the safety and comfort of passengers, I am only flying a small aircraft, but there is so much to learn, and, I guess we're always learning, anyway, stay safe all the best from Scotland, Stephen.
This video helps me a lot, im flying with X-plane 11 for a couple of years, but i still need to learn many things, and this video helps me a lot to improve my landings. Thank for your clearly explanation, you helped me a lot!
Fantastic video. Great mix of flight sim, video and explanatory graphics!
Excellent...this has help considerably. Thank you.
Feared of landings..... but now got better ideas..thanks captain JOE sir
I think the best description of a hard landing I ever heard was "....Like a piano from the fifth floor.". Always enjoying your videos Joe xxx
Hello, I am not a pilot (in a next life) but passionate about aviation. The job remains complex but you have this facility to explain everything ... I really enjoy your videos. Thanks from France, TLS
Yes, interesting video. Oct. 1987, Berlin Tegel. Landing from FRA on a Pan Am A310 in complete fog. I was amazed how lightly we touched down too. Thanks, Joe.
