My nearest airport is horrible for landings, one time the A320 needs to try 4 times landing at the airport, and two times is the normal, very few times they land in the first approximation. But with the turboprop, ATR42/74, they do at first approximation, always.

      I knew one of those type of pilots back in the late 80’s. His wife and my wife worked together and so we hung out. I cringed when he told me how little they make as the main company holds that carrot out in front of them. It was the only way to get into the bigger planes kind of like a farm team in baseball. The funniest thing ever though was the first time we were over at their house for dinner and then some drinking and party on. So he motions for me to go down the hallway with him, we step into the room and he says he has a surprise for me. That’s when he points out that on the bookshelf he’s got two fat lines of coke and yes I was surprised lol
      So I said I have a surprise for you as well lol. That’s when I showed him my badge lol. You should have seen his face all the colour drained out of it and I thought he was going to pass out lol. So he didn’t do anything but stare at me for the longest 10 seconds ever lol. Then he snapped out of it and handed me a rolled up $50 bill. So I did what any of my fellow LAPD brothers back in the day would have done, one line up one nostril and one line up the other lol
      I handed him the $50 and said thank you as I walked down the hallway lol back to the ladies lol

  • @PatrickJWenzel
    @PatrickJWenzel 6 лет назад

    The crosswind technique used in some companies for TURBOPROPS prior to flaring:
    1. Rudder to straighten down the runway,
    2. Bank into wind to compensate for drift,
    3. Touchdown on the upwind main wheels,
    4. Hold aileron into wind for remainder of rollout.
    Takes a while to master, but works really well. Unfortunately passengers can be put off by the yawing motion as you straighten the aircraft initially with rudder, but safety considerations far outweigh passenger comfort in these situations.
    I'll verbalise my intentions out loud on final as soon as I can identify the windsock. Helps prep my brain and muscles to respond appropriately and gives the other pilot a chance to hear my game plan if the conditions weren't previously briefed.

      +Peter Kelly Most if not all modern aircraft have integrated rudder limiting systems. The systems use airspeed information (airspeed ranges) to stop rudder travel at preset deflection limits, thus reducing stress on the vert. stabilizer. At approach and landing speeds the pilots have full rudder deflection authority. However, as you said, it is good practice to take it easy, especially going lock to lock!

      it has an airbus fly by wire control, which means every action taken by the pilot must go through a committee in brussels, then to toulose, then must be cleared with Angela merkel to ensure no immigrants are offended by the movement of the control surface, once cleared it goes back to the control servo of the aircraft, and may or may not do what the pilot intends it to do.. he's probably too busy doing sensitivity training on his lap to to be flying anyways... I'll stick to the Q400 any day.. besides.. It's STOL performance can clear a 50 tall block of EU protesters with only a 600 foot runway at MTOW with no head wind.. And .. it automatically clears the toilets when over Molenbeek.. brilliant aircraft..

      Back when I had the Fokker, other pilots were always wanting to trade rides with me in our planes. One guy I knew was a good pilot had a gyrocopter and we decided to swap rides. I did a cockpit check with him and off he went in the Fokker. When he returned he did the same with me, telling me that it didn't respond quickly to control inputs and I should just wait and it would do what I wanted. I got it up to speed on a taxiway and eased back on the stick... nothing happened but the whap-whap-whap sound changed. I had pretty well given up when all of a sudden it hopped off the ground. I gingerly got it back down, taxied back to where he was waiting and told him I could log 20 seconds of rotary wing time.

That first landing is a royal death bomb. I can understand some mitigating circumstance but it seems to me, at least the first landing was the pilot showing machismo.

    • @Hopeless_and_Forlorn
      @Hopeless_and_Forlorn 7 лет назад +17

      These lighter aircraft have lower landing speeds than the big boys, so the
      crosswinds are a larger proportion of forward speed, and the effects are more pronounced. Slow the landing speed enough, and the airplane would have to crab almost directly into the cross wind to maintain the runway centerline on approach.

Great job flight crews...thankful I was not behind the controls...and not sure I would have handled being a passenger very well either. I may just stick to my flight sim where I can never end up killing myself or anyone else. In my flight sim...I turned up my crosswind to 50 knots, hoped in my Cessna 172, and about hovered in for a landing (after a few crash resets of course), but I think max crosswind legally flyable landing is about 15 to 20 knots if I remember correctly. It was actually just about as difficult to keep the plane from blowing of the runway when I tried to reduce my power and taxi to the ramp as it was to get it down on the runway. Something else I could never master on the sim was trying to land the V-22 Osprey...the military twin blade vertical take off and landing troop and supply carrier. It flies like a plane but has to land like a helicopter because it's blades would strike the ground if not rotated vertically for take off and landing. Some special skills required for that 🐦!

    All bar one of these are high wing. High centre of lift, lower C of G, and landing at what appear regional airports: likely less choice of runway in conditions of cross-wind. Hats off to the pilots! As a passenger I would feel quite excited and confident. I love turboprops.

      Yes, it'a a good thing the pax don't realize the pilots in this video are greenhorns and haven't a clue. 9 out of 10 of these pilots will proudly laugh after landings like that and say, "DUDE !!!.....I have almost 2,000 hours! I'm a CFI and I still pitch for speed and throttle for glide angle!" Or, "DUDE !!! That's how my instructor taught me. And besides, the plane was DESIGNED to be landed this way!"
      After watching this video, there's no wonder why I hear so many people say, "I'll fly in a big jet but totally hate to ride in those little "puddle jumpers!" It's because of some of clowns they have for pilots!

    • @extraace
      @extraace 7 лет назад +13

      I've said this in another comment but once in something sized beyond a 172, sideslip landings are not normally done. It's not very hard to clip a wingtip or an engine. It's also weird for the passengers. Even in my Caravan days we were told no side slips for passenger sake.
      As far as "power for glide path comment" I don't get it? That is what you do. Hold Vref with pitch and power for glideslope. Both just happen at the same time in my view. Especially if coupled.

      Extraace - the Caravan is an awfully nice plane to fly! Whilst the turbine lacks the acceleration of a piston engine, the power delivery is pretty stunning (for one who used to fly 147's!) It says a lot that the pilot I went up with, used to fly Caravans for no money - he enjoyed the plane so much (it helped that he has "significant family wealth" I suppose! :-) )

    • @extraace
      @extraace 7 лет назад

      Yes, it is good. That was probably the most fun flying of my career so far and it was my first "real" job. Inter island flying with great scenery, longest flight was an hour. But, unfortunately no family wealth here. It was fun but I could barely pay my bills and had to move on.

      The camera angle used here makes the runway look a lot more hilly than it really is. The smallest little undulation can look like a big hillcrest when you're looking at a few miles of runway lengthwise.

  • @bryannichols719
    @bryannichols719 7 лет назад

    The one thing in common in this video was great piloting. I'm a private pilot, planes on approaches for landings are flying slow and dirty. Dirty means the flaps are extended so the plane can fly at a slower rate of speed for landing, while maintaining lift. This creates drag. At a slow speed the plane responses are slower to turn corrections, much like a boats are when at trolling speed in water. In this video the planes are responding to high cross winds. These planes are crabbing (Angling the planes nose towards the direction of the wind) to keep the plane on the center line of the runway. With high crosswinds and wind gusts, this is no easy feat for any skilled pilot.
