As a pilot I can promise you, this was most definitely not even close to severe turbulence. That was what we call "light chop."
Its kinda obvious whats gonna happen right, shitty weather and alot of clouds. that means a bit a bumpy ride right!
@@christianmagnusson1641 lol
It's not severe turbulence unless the flight crew shout "sit down NOW" over the intercom ! That happened to me on a descent through storm clouds into Bologna, with objects and people flying around the cabin. Not nice.
I've seen a wing flex a lot more than that, make your asshole pucker.
Yeah as a passenger I was waiting for the severe part throughout the entire video. I’ve been in what I’d call severe, landing in stormy weather on the West coast of Norway where sea meets tall mountains. Felt like the whole plane being pushed in three different angles at the same time, almost as if aerodynamics and engine power didn’t matter. Seconds later from completely different directions… People screaming, locals telling me how they had never been in such a bad one. It was only after arrival, travelling in the bus along the sea, seeing waves crashing that I understood how the forces of nature were at swing. It was also the most stunning and spectacular view and light and landing I had ever experienced but I was shaking for half an hour after landing. I’ve been afraid of flying ever since. At least in Northern Europe.
Give me those 11 minutes of my life back
Same 😂😂😂
Ah, you saved me from wasting mine. Not going to bother. 😀
Thank you
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
😂 I knew it wasn’t worth watching when I started the video! Yet I still held on to see the “severe” turbulence. There’s more turbulence on a wooden roller coaster.
At least on camera, that appeared to be light turbulence. As a frequent flyer, I've experienced a wide range. Worst was on a flight to Brazil, when we hit a rough patch that caused the plane to unexpectedly plummet. I was stupidly not wearing my seat belt, jolted out of my seat, and hit my head on the ceiling above me. I was ok, thankfully, but that experience taught me to keep my seat belt fastened whenever seated.
Lucky for you.
Was the plane crossing the ocean ??
Some people will never learn.
I agree - I kept waiting for the "severe" part, but then a passenger who's maybe never experienced true severe turbulence will consider any to be such 😄.
I've heard of such mishaps and that is why, like you, my seat belt is always fastened, visits to the loo the exception.
Didn't see severe at all. Light to maybe a touch of moderate at best. What I did see was a stunning departure! Thanks for sharing!
Queenstown take off and departure pattern is different from other airports and this take off is perfect. The high angle turns are to avoid the nearby mountain climbing heights.
You flew into weather; there's no question about it. Often times, camera footage may not reflect, what you might be experiencing inside. I was a medevac nurse/ paramedic , and with each bumpy flight, they became less intimidating. There were times, when we were bounced everywhere, but by the time I was ready to end this aspect of my career, what would have been totally scary, was not scary at all.
The more we fly the less afraid we are . It's only natural to have some fear because we are not always in the air .
I was waiting for the turbulence. Did I miss something?
Like so many more people viewing this we’ve all been in worse, this to me is normal taking off over water and mountain terrain
Severe turbulence is marked by an inability to hold your phone still enough to film anything. Like other have said that's mild. I've bashed my head against the side of the window in one thunderstorm.
Nice shot. The takeoff view of Queenstown looks spectacular even in bad weather!
Here in the US we call that light turbulence at most. Severe turbulence is when you see people flying up and down from their seats and baggage falling down all over the cabin., nice take off though.
There'd be more turbulence if I farted in the bath tub
Love Air New Zealand. Fab staff. Always feels confident flying with them.
I love that part of the world
The only airline I know (and I fly number of airlines during a year) that cancelled frequent flying points which expired due to Covid!! A mean spirited company! (and Im a NZ'er)
If you want to see severe/extreme turbulence, watch the passenger videos of the LATAM A320 😮 That looked terrifying. This seems pretty usual for a few lumps and bumps on takeoff.
My prayer life springs into play every time I fly in bumpy weather. At least with the airlines, you are covering ground fast and the pilots can try to find smoother air up high.
With my luck one time, I was in the bathroom when I heard the flight attendant say something about returning to our seats. The plane dropped and I bonked my head on the bathroom ceiling. Sigh. Making it back to my seat in turbulence was like running a marathon.
Took off from Oahu during a rain storm. Pilot waited until a little clear and off we went. Normal when you pass through clouds and if it’s windy. Nothing the plane can’t handle. Nerve racking a bit. Haha. Once you go over the clouds is smooth sailing.
When you are a nervous flyer all turbulence is scary and severe. Just remember it’s uncomfortable but it’s safe. Allow your body to go with the bumps like on a rollercoaster. Then remind yourself that turbulence is like going on a bumpy road in a car or bus.
people always think turbulence is worse than it really is. If you see the flight attendants sit down and strap in, THATS severe turbulence
I flew 2 weeks out of every month for years and I'll be honest, that is what seasoned flyers would call a bumpy take-off. I remember landing in Menphis with multiple tornados on the ground in close proximity to the airport. People were screaming and some praying. I'll be honest, I didn't think I would stand on the ground in one piece again.
When a galley cart puts a hole in ceiling before hanging up there for 10 seconds and then falling back down onto the seat - that’s rough.
The title is a stupid clickbait, but what a stunning departure it was! I'd love to experience that!
Despite the weather, such a beautiful view of the mountains with the weather and clouds!!
Looks like a pretty nice flight.
I was still waiting for the severe turbulence when the clip ended.
Looks normal to me.
This is light to moderate chop filmed by a nervous flyer. Their perspective on this would change if they ever took flight lessons or a trip in a small plane. Little bumps, this. When your body starts getting thrown around, THATS turbulence.
Beautiful take off
Aren't they all . I love takeoffs and landings.
Ditto Chris, in the past I've rated turbulence as severe when my headset has been pulled upwards and of my head.
As a nervous flyer, I can’t stand any turbulence. Thankfully I’ve never been in severe turbulence (or probably not even moderate turbulence to be honest), but ANY turbulence or bumpiness makes me a wreck. 😢
Thats light, with maybe some moderate. Its not severe unless people are screaming, and the seatbelt is the only thing keeping you from coming out of the seat
The vulnerability of humans when boxed inside an aluminium can and pitted against the forces of nature.........hoping and praying that the 2 lads up front with their reassuring voices have everything under control.
Very calm flight !! Mind blowing scenery.
Did the severe turbulence part of the video get accidentally edited out? Because all I saw was some light chop. This was smooth compared to what I experienced flying over the Rockies in Montana one time and landing in a severe windstorm in the Bay Area another time. There were people puking on both planes...this was nothing.
Nice clean window thanks to the rain... It may have been the second thing I learnt as a trainee pilot; with cloud comes turbulence...avoid cloud if poss. This was not severe turbulence, just a bit bumpy.
I do not call it a severe turbulence; I went through worse
Your medal is in the post
Mild turbulence.
Yes
You poor girl, I could see you shaking. I have flown all over the world and this flight would have been fun because I enjoy some bumps. This isn’t severe turbulence at all, hope you’re more confident flying next time and smile with the bumps! ✈️
I hardly noticed any turbulence? Sat through the whole video but its ok, nice scenery
Glad you survived, looked horrific, could hardly hear the PA system for the screaming.
I like it when there's communication from the pilot. I've been on flights where we were advised that we will hit some turbulence 2 hours into the flight or that they are expecting a smooth flight etc. Then I've been on flights where there is zero communication about anything...just hate that.
If you want severe turbulence, try to fly into Adak Island in Alaska. Puts a lot of rollercoaster rides to shame.
Agree with others that was just barely moderate turbulence at the very most.
Once when I was a passenger on a 737 approaching Oslo Airport, we had some sudden turbulence where a woman that hadn't fastened her seatbelt was eject from her seat into the ceiling and hit her head, a flight attended also injured her arm, the shaking only lasted for a few seconds but thats my worst experience flying.
This seems mild, although I wasn't there so can't know for sure. But severe turbulence is very rare. This is a nice looking plane interior though.
That was most definitely not 'Severe' turbulence. Maybe light to moderate. Severe turbulence is when the aircraft is violently bouncing between 2000 to 3000 ft in altitude, overhead compartment doors open on their own and carry-on luggage spills onto people's heads, items loose in the cabin float in the air with each drop as passengers scream in terror, and the wings begin to flap up and down like a bird. Most people never experience heavy or 'severe' turbulence, but if you do, you will never forget it.
It’s nothing. Some years back, I was on a flight with severe turbulence. All the passengers on the starboard side had to grab and hold on to the wing, to prevent it from breaking off from the fuselage…
That pilot sure kept the flaps extended for a long time.
A few things. He kept his flaps extended far longer then he should have, which means he was trying to get above the turbulence as fast as possible. I was on a flight that did this. We took off from Utah and rapidly climbed to 20k feet within about 4 minutes. I didn't know a passenger plane could do what he did...and it was severe! On another flight, a lady asked me why the flight was so rough, to which the UPS pilot across from her said, "lady, this is nothing, passenger planes fly around the worst stuff, I fly through it. You're more then welcome to ride with me and see what turbulence is all about!"
Climbing to get above terrain more likely. Look at the clouds - there are no signs of Cb's anywhere, just some rain clouds.
Not longer than he should have. Longer than you are used to on more standard take-off procedures. However, absolutely correct for a steep climbing turn in terrain where you are climbing at relatively low airspeeds in an attitude which offers reduced lift (banking) in variable winds and moisture. Textbook take off.
that area just looks like a place of strong turbulence. lots moisture in the air, mountains, big clouds. NO THANKS 😅
Some kinda 36 bank angle for a moment, flaps 1 to the 6k feet probably, it is ok. Pilot did a great job navigating through the clouds
Not severe turbulence at all. I recently flew from Cairns to Melbourne. Mid flight the seatbelt sign illuminated and within seconds we were getting shaken about for a good 15 minutes before the pilots decided to decend to a lower altitude to avoid it. Even that was considered "mild"
These pilots knew to fly steady by keeping the flaps out to help with stability. They did well
People are always labeling mild turbulence as "severe" turbulence. Severe turbulence means anything not tied down would be flying around the cabin and people screaming like they're on a roller coaster.
Looking pretty standard to me! Hope you loved your time in NZ x
Flown in and out of Queenstown last 17 years on countless occasions. Nothing wrong with that take off. Try being on a Boeing 747 with an engine fire and making an emergency landing en route to LA. That was freaky.
The wings did not flap and no one blew lunch. Severe turbulence is penetrating a T storm at 18k in a light twin (C421A). Could not read the dashboard on that hop.
I fly in and out of Queenstown all the time. That is just a normal day. Pretty smooth to be honest.
It was only very mild turbulence! If itwas severe turbulence everyone will Scream and things not locked in place will be airborne
That’s how it look in my Camaro when I’m on the highway with no windshield wipers.
nice calm and peaceful cabin, just plug your earpiece and close your eyes
There's nothing severe there. Naturally the plane will shake because you're passing through a storm but nothing is alarming
A nice video of the take off and departure segment. on a scale of 1-10, ten being the worst, what was the turbulence like?
1 by the looks of it.
Ahhhh, the growl of those Pratt and Whitney engines.
You have not experienced severe turbulence yet. Thank god.
ya know, the actual definition of severe turbulence is large and abrupt changes in altitude or attitude and the momentary loss of control of the aircraft. That was light to moderate (at best).
This isn't severe turbulence. Severe is when stuff is flying out of the overhead compartments or the crew getting hit by the ceiling of the plane or passengers who are stupid enough to take off their seatbelts & hit their heads on the ceiling. Nobody on your video was screaming in panic. Nothing was flying around the cabin. Might want to change your title rather than trying to suck people in to watch your video just to get some recognition.
If that’s severe then I must be flying through extreme regularly. 😂
Well, I'm wondering when the turbulence starts....because that little bit of shaking was definitely not severe turbulence
I am sure the crew knows what they are doing, the flaps were on 10 degrees all the way to 12000 or more, and I have seen 80% worse turbulances in my travel time. Nice vedio
That's nothing. Maybe you've only had still flights until now.
What is did note were flaps.
We're they fully extended? Hoping a Pilot could explain
He obviously meant severe fart turbulence, as no other severe turbulence to be seen. I was On a flight from UK to LA once and all I could smell was farts. There was obviously a nervous flyer in our midst.
Fare away from heavy turbulaces my friend. But yeah little bit 👍
Although it might have been unsettling, this was hardly severe turbulence.
This isn’t even close to severe, not even moderate. I’m a nervous flyer and this is just “light chop” and probably wouldn’t even think twice about it
Can’t say I saw what I would classify as severe turbulence, nor moderate either. Light turbulence yes, but that is about it.
Wow. That was rough, roughest I've ever seen, How did you survive that? All that screaming of terrified peopzzzz.......
I waited until the end, expecting to see a little turbulence. Beautiful views on take-off, otherwise a totally wasted eleven and a half minutes.
No worse than a bump on the road! Spectacular scenery on the climb out!
Seems to be more like light - maybe a tiny bit of moderate chop. I’ve had some horrific (pilot told me after we landed it was indeed severe) turbulence taking off in a thunderstorm from Liberia, Costa Rica. That was an interesting one.
What a load of twaddle!
An absolutely normal flight.
Moderate turbulence at the most
Very light ...even without screaming of passengers
I’ve flown over 2 million miles in the past 23 years. This is just average turbulence.
Turbulence where?
Only thing I never seen before is flaps extended so many time post take off.
I was on the same flight route few years ago and we had also a weather situation during Auckland approach. That was severe, the whole plane screamed in one when we descended (fell?😂) into the stormy clouds. The captain warned the passengers before, it'll be "bumpy" but noone thought that'll be way bumpy...
There is no "fall". The feeling is caused by different wind speeds and different wind layers.
@@Tintenkobold Not always. In the stormy clouds, there are strong up and down streams, and if you go throught these streams you can feel yourself in a strong uplift and then immedately a strong descent which caused by the downstream. That feels like a fell and you can experience the same as freefall, you can see things levitating in the cabin. As a glider pilot i am experienced this a lot of times in heavy thermal turbulences.
@@rehot yeah that's true and airliners crashed because of that. But it's not what most people experience as turbulence. Especially in this video which shows nothing dangerous or "severe".
@@Tintenkobold The turbulence which is caused by the different speed of wind layers usually at cruise altitude and criuse speed. Yeah, that's what people calls "turbulence" during the flight. On takeoff and landing turbulence is more often caused by local up and downstreams or ground level wind or windshear. The most dangeorus downstream (near the ground) which causes crashes is the microburst. And yes, i can agree, this video doesn't show any type of severe turbulence :) I didn't shot a video during my turbulent approach to Auckland, it would be more interesting, but always good to see any video contains an AirNewZealand flight.
Lovely views of a lovely country so that's how you should have labelled that video. At most, the wing flex you videos was MAYBE approaching moderate. Severe turbulence is categorised as causing large speed changes and even momentary control loss. Most of what you showed was light. Lovely views though....before you went into the clouds.
I am a retired Flight Attendant and I am here to tell you that is NOTHING! You titled this wrong ….
Man that was a smooth lift off. Is this meant as sarcasm? I don't get it. This isn't severe in the slightest. I've landed and lifted off from Queenstown Airport in conditions unbelievably worse than this. Genuine turbulence. Are you just ultra sensitive to plane movement?
That's mild turbulence.
I remember having moderate turbulence. The wings were flexing the flaps were going up and down and I was hovering out of my chair.
Ailerons were going up and down
That's not turbulence. That's barely windy. What I want to know is why it took 8 minutes to retract the flaps
"scary turbulence"...that flight was smooth asf. What are you, 10?
I flew out of Hong Kong at the end of a typhoon that was turbulence, this seems like many normal take off's with wind. Great video though.
Apparently pilots did a good job avoiding the heavier formations.
It looks like you forgot to upload the clip with the severe turbulence in it.
My goodness, did you do that on purpose? Either you have absolutely no idea about what severe turbulence is, or you were just trying to dig out some views to your post.
I just experienced this crossing the Pacific ocean going to Singapore. It was pretty unnerving.
No that's not Severe turbulence. I have experience that could be described moderate turbulence and then people are screaming and you can here the wind hitting the plane and throwing it around.
That's routine turbulence, very light.
Perfectly normal takeoff with slight bumps - complete melodrama.Try landing in Canberra in the suummertime.
