Mine too. I've flown there a lot of the years, but can you believe it's been like 5 years since I got the river visual that gets you those great views of D.C.... Every time I've flown there in the last few years I've specially sat on that side to hopefully get that approach. Or departure for that matter. And every time, they switch flow right before I get there. EVERY TIME haha. I was literally on the plane, getting ready to push back. And they were using the correct runway and flow. And bam, right as we pushed back. The 5 planes lined up all did an about face and headed the other way haha. Just my luck.
Fun flight to watch! Love east coast videos, thanks again for sharing! Sporty landing too, you could tell he hit the brakes pretty good to make that exit :D
I cannot believe it because I am in Washington DC and yesterday, I got to go to Mount Vernon and then to do planespotting at DCA and I was thinking of you the whole time I was there seeing all the planes that I could and even saw the Alaska Airlines Pixar Pier livery there land and this upload is just great watching from Washington DC today!
Great video, I always love flying into DCA. I have a nice photo of the National Mall I was able to get while flying in years ago on the River Visual approach. I wish I was able to get down there more often to hang out and planespot at Gravelly Point Park.
I've lived in Northern Virginia for the last 18 years, so DCA has been my primary airport. I agree, fun place to fly in and out of. Very accessible and good scenery.
Southwest is my favorite single class airline. I love Southwest, but I try to classify things. Because it’s not really fair to compare Delta, United, and American to Southwest.
Yes, but they're all old. Despite my best efforts, I have been thwarted from getting that approach, or departure for years now. ruclips.net/video/YW4KdudGXus/видео.htmlsi=ORwdP83wPt9Aw5Rm I mean, we're talking I still had a different intro and outro it's so old haha.
Wow... good views taking off. I admit that I forgot that DCA was on the Virginia side of the Potomac. That's a tough airport to get into, sort of like LGA, very tricky. I have the utmost respect for pilots who are able to get into those 2 airports. The hardest airport to get into is PBH, Paro, Bhutan. Only one airline goes there (Druk Air) and only pilots who've been specifically trained to deal with this airport get to do this. Well, guess what. We have wildfire smoke over us. The AQI has gone up into the USG Range and it smells very smokey outside. Back in Sept. 2020, the smoke was so bad that the AQI was in the Very Unhealthy Range and the sun was barely able to peek through. My GF and I didn't go outside at all that day. Well, anyhow, I feel jet lagged from watching this video. I think I'll watch one of the Lifetime thriller movies while I rest up.
@@sla31 Mt fingers are crossed. Anyhow, you may have heard that Bob Barker left us today. He was from right here in WA State, with Darrington being his home town.
@@sla31 You can find his very first appearance in TV back on the end of 1956 on Truth Or Consequences. You can find this on RUclips. Also fun to watch is his 1980 Price Is Right where Vanna White was a contestant before she became the letter turner on Wheel of Fortune. I remember back in 1974 when he hosted the Miss Universe Pageant when he asked Miss Finland "how tall are you?" and she said "taller than you."
Thanks my friend. No, I do not wear sunscreen when I’m traveling. Of course, most of my traveling is done for the channel and I rarely leave the airports except to sleep. Of course, if I am traveling for something other than the channel, and I am going to be outside all day. Like at the beach. Yes, I wear sunscreen. But not for my typical flying days.
Yooo nice vid as always also since you fly a lot do you have a lot of jet lag? When I fly usually internationally I always have a problem with it I was jus wondering how u deal with it.
Yes. How I deal with it, is probably not a way that most people would be able to deal with it. Most of the time, I’m flying specifically for the channel. I end up flying as much as I can every single day. So by the time I get to wherever I’m going that day, I am exhausted. So it doesn’t really matter, because I pretty much just pass out as soon as I get to a hotel anyway. I also try to fly more on days that I’m flying west. Not only are you gaining time, but it’s easier for your body to adjust when you’re gaining time. Jetlag is a lot harder to deal with when you’re flying east and losing time. But again, my flying habits are much different than what most people need.
@@sla31 ohhh yea that makes sense cuz you fly so much and you hold your phone up to the window each time so like dang you must be tired 😅. And yea I noticed that jet lag thing always happens when I go East and usually doesn’t when I go west
Thanks for much for pointing that out! I'm from Germany, living in Canada and just looked it up, she flew as D-AHXC with Air Berlin, and even found a picture of her at my home town in Hannover EDDV/HAJ! Very neat. Such a random coincidence that this South West plane once flew domestic flights in Germany
@@wings4passion Southwest usually does buy other airlines -700's, I think as of now they have 49 -700's from other airlines, I know they have a number of EasyJet, AirBerlin and AeroMexico planes. And as of late Avelo has been buying up retired Southwest -700's.

As an aviation enthusiast, I will fly on anything. Even CRJ's haha. But as a passenger, I prefer Airbus almost unanimously over Boeing products. I find them to be overall more comfortable to fly on.
@@sla31 hey I have a question , do you book random flights and do trip reports for fun? Just wondering bc I’ve always wondered do u book flights every day
Well, I run this channel as my full time job. So, I suppose that does classify the flights as "for business" haha. But in reality, I'm just an aviation enthusiast who loves to fly, and I love to share them with everyone else. Most of the flights I take are just to get the footage to post for the channel. By chance, this one was actually to visit a friend haha.

this is a pretty rare flight! from what ive seen, there is only 1 southwest 7K5 in service, which is the one in the video, N7880D.
Nice. I didn't realize that!
Great sunset landing. Thanks for showing the new airports.
Fun flight to watch! Love east coast videos, thanks again for sharing! Sporty landing too, you could tell he hit the brakes pretty good to make that exit :D
Glad you enjoyed it my friend!
I’ve never seen such as how much planes are at the gates! 13:25

What a coincidence! Have a good trip my friend! Enjoy D.C.!
It’s always a great day whenever you post a Southwest video
I'm glad you enjoyed it my friend!
Flights into DCA are always fun! Another nice full flight today, sir! Happy Saturday!
Thanks my friend! Happy Saturday!
Ah the old terminal, so much history there. Grew up in Alexandria Va
Perfekt sound for sleeping!
First,Nice Video ❤
Thanks my friend. I’m glad you enjoyed it.

The last time I landed at DCA on American, we landed on the famous Runway 19, we were so low that I thought we were going to ditch in the Potomac.
Nice video!
Is southwest your favorite airline ?
Southwest is my favorite single class airline. I love Southwest, but I try to classify things. Because it’s not really fair to compare Delta, United, and American to Southwest.
Why else would he fly SWA more than any other airlines 😊
I’ve never flown southwest before, However I’m hoping to catch a southwest flight from DFW-MCI
@@sla31Southwest is a good low cost airline, but I do prefer JetBlue. They have better service
@@JacobThatGuy1 southwest doesn't fly to DFW their based in DAL Love field
That was a tranquil vibe and amazing sunset :)
정말 조용하고 멋진 일몰이었어요
I'm glad you enjoyed it my friend!
Do you have any videos with dca landing on runway 19 (river visual approach)
Yes, but they're all old. Despite my best efforts, I have been thwarted from getting that approach, or departure for years now. ruclips.net/video/YW4KdudGXus/видео.htmlsi=ORwdP83wPt9Aw5Rm I mean, we're talking I still had a different intro and outro it's so old haha.

Nothing just like flying into DCA with it’s semi short runways lol. But gotta love that 737-700! Great fly as always
Hey man, is it cool if I use the audio for a video, itll be replacing the game sounds to make it sound more realistic
Yes, you can use audio from my videos to enhance simulations. I don't have any issue with people using audio for that.
my family and I used to live in Virginia but not anymore we moved away from VA yeah we moved back to Nevada now
Wow, Virginia to Nevada is a big move!
@@sla31 yeah we flew back to Nevada and they shipped their cars too
New mci and dca are both amazing airports😊

Thanks my friends. I personally like wings now with the winglets like this, but that’s just me.

How do you record these videos?
I record all of why videos with an iPhone 14 Pro and I hold the camera by hand. Nothing special, or secret. Sometimes simple solutions are the best.

Second, Do you prefer 737 or A320?
737!

The plane came in from Nashville.
