ONCE IN A LIFETIME landing at Melbourne Airport

- Опубликовано: 17 май 2020
- Landing a Cirrus SR22 at Melbourne International Airport and taxying to look at the planes grounded due to the global aviation shutdown. Watch my IFR departure, hear Air Traffic Control, watch the landing, see the airport from the ground, and watch the flight home.
It's a real privilege to be able to land at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport whilst our airspace is quiet, but I'm saddened knowing lots of people are out of work because of the travel restrictions currently in place. I made this video to try and get viewers excited about aviation and travel so when we're back flying again hopefully we can get the industry moving quickly and get things back to normal.
Hope you enjoy this landing melbourne airport video, and I hope we're all sharing the skies and travelling again once this crisis is over.

Your smile was genuine and infectious. Loved the "Tower: say intentions" "Stef: just taxi around for a bit"
Just like, Whats up? Nothing just came to check out the airport. I am not buying anything.

Imagine being in one of those A380s and looking outside just to see this tiny plane rolling around having a look at the airport
It's not the size of your plane, it's what you do with it that counts...
Stefan Drury that is what she said
The malysian aircraft was an a330. not a a380

@@RyanTheHero3 ohh right. But there is no one in those aircraft because they r on stand.
Heard your callsign over the radio, while tracking JQ464!!! Glad your back in the air
me too omg
Sameeeeeeeeeee
How do you track atc
How do u listen to atc
James Black you go to liveatc.net
Great great great ATC service, great flight, wow what an experience!
Thanks mate, it was nice to get flying again.
I half hoped for a Kennedy Steve moment of warning the Malaysian flight of your prop wash.
Ha
I had exactly the same thought, lol
Lol
Reminds me of when I was training for my PPL years ago, most of my training was in class G 100's of km away from low level controlled airspace so part of the training was a solo nav exercise into controlled airspace with a landing at a controlled airport.
So there I was coming in on final in the 172 at Adelaide airport with a 737 full of passengers holding short waiting for me - no pressure.
SpeedyCM lies
@@gongskings7083not in this case, ILS training is done at Adelaide International due to the fact that Parafield doesn't have a full ILS.
Touch and gos aren't allowed though, you have to taxi, and you have to book a slot before flight
INSANE!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT..............Especially the MH flight waiting for you to land!!!
They were probably thinking "really we have to wait!" Haha
Michael Sideris you should see angels flights. They will line up like 6 jets for a single engine turboprop because they have priority
Hey Stef,
Mate, you have made my day. So many memories of my past you’ve sparked.
As you ‘might’ remember, I did a bit of flying in Darwin back in the very late ’90s. I remember flying there as a restricted pilot but had the support of the Darwin controllers.
I remember, two specific occasions that are related to your video uploaded. The first one was a dead hot stinking terrible day. Jet wake turb wait was at least six minutes. I taxi down the runway and get onto the tower and much to my surprise the tower said, line and wait even though a 767 was ready. He made the comment, ‘Off you go, good sir, no need to keep you waiting. He then gets on the radio and says to the 767 - Line and wait, brava victor lima is taking off, a student pilot is getting his hours up’ - The 767 responded affirmatively.
The 2nd time was coming into land into Darwin, again. I think???? Was a 737 waiting for me ( just as your video ) to land. As so as I hit the ground, the radio call was BVL please expedite your exit onto (what ever taxi way it was).
Was such an experience Stef. The mixture of small planes and jets. Hahaha. I haven’t flown in 20 years now. I so do miss it. However, videos like yours instills a passion and joy. Thank you ever so much for your content. You make one Darwin bloke very happy.
Take care.
Great video Stef as always. It’s quite interesting to see aircrafts that would normally be flying but are instead parked up not doing anything. Hope everything gets back to normal soon and I hope your staying safe! 😊
Man, watching this was incredible I can only imagine how it felt in the pilots seat. Your passion and love for the industry is not only what made me subscribe but also is why you'll get very far I believe - coming from an aspiring pilot one day, thankyou and keep it up!
Well done Stef! This has given me a great insight into air traffic control, the views were amazing and I’m so happy you got to do this!
I felt your excitement STEFAN. A few weeks ago I landed at LAX in the Cessna 172 I fly. What a thrill!
Awesome, I bet that was a fun flight too.
That's why we love aviation... I wish I was there sitting next to you and feeling this fantastic experience... thank you for sharing this incredible journey.
This put the biggest grin on my face Stef thank you. I'm currently stood down by VA and seizing the opportunity to finish off my pilot training, so your content is keeping me really inspired. Can't wait to have the freedom to hop in a plane and fly myself somewhere. Thanks again mate, love your work.
Hey Zac, I'm sorry to hear mate but I truly hope things start moving again soon and you're back at work again so I can jump aboard one of your planes armed with my camera. Good luck with your flight training.
That was fantastic. Thankyou so much for sharing this once in a lifetime opportunity. I was as excited as you, and the views across Melbourne 👍👍
That was so wonderful. I was giggling the entire approach, your excitement was so infectious
As a child and teenager my Dad flew my brother and I around Australia in light aircraft. 20 years ago I took my first and only flying lesson where I flew over the Melbourne CBD on a clear autumn day, just like you had for your great adventure. Your video brought me tears of joy and a tinge of regret at not continuing flying. Great work on the audio and video gathering and editing, Thank you!
Nice way to get back in the saddle Stef. Found myself wearing a smile from start to finish, thanks for that.
I work on the airside at tullamarine, I think I saw your departure. I thought I was seeing things!
And yes, sad times at the moment. All those aircraft being parked up is stunning, but sad at the same time.
What an awesome opportunity though! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome video Stef, thank you so much for sharing! So glad to see you flying again!
Hi Stefan, it is always a joy to either depart or depart from Tullamarine, but to hitch a ride with you coming in and seeing the suburbs more clearly as well as the runway really close up was a joy. Thank you and may we all be flying again soon for either pleasure or work. Bet a lot of commercial pilots were drooling and loving it too.
Thank you for sharing such a special moment! I love the passion that radiates from you. It's contagious and something only fully understood by other aviation lovers.
BLOODY AMAZING MATE - you've worked long and hard and thoroughly deserve this moment, albeit in difficult times, nobody can take this moment away from you or knock you for it either. 'We shall all meet in the skies again' 🙏🏼🛫
It’s so neat flying into your home “commercial” hub for the first time. I didn’t have the added excitement of one holding short for me like u did, but I did relive my 1st time excitement thru watching this vid. Sad to see all those birds sitting empty but happy folks like u are back to carving holes thru the sky again
Love this Stef and even I got excited when they said “Runway 34 clear to land”. You spoke very nicely about the industry. Home town airport too ☺️
Thanks Dee Plane, yeah a real treat to do that at your home airport. Thanks for watching.
I have officially subscribed. Been watching the videos for the past few days. Way to go. Inspiring
Mate, simply awesome. Definitely in your happy place. Thanks for sharing
Loved every moment Stef....wonderful moment for you and bitter sweet all at the same time. Lets hope everything improves for airline industry ...soon!
Absolutely AMAZING video!! Thanks for sharing it with us!!
Awesome video Stef, thanks for sharing and thanks to Melbourne International for letting you in!
OMG, I love our city so much.
Really miss the view, flights and landings, makes me smile/cry with tears of joy :)
Thanks so much Stef, like YAY, bigime!
I hope it was an awesome experience for you.
Many thanks. X
Thanks for flying along Melissa, we do live in an awesome city hey?
That was bloody awesome mate! Thanks for sharing the moment with us.
Awesome.. What a privilege to land at an International Airport. Great shots. Always luv ya channel.
You have ignited a spark in me again. I wish I was there. Have being there many years ago. Thanks for the video.
That was AMAZING, it gave me goosebumps Thanks mate.
I could feel your excitement. Great to see!
This is Gold! Stef is back in business! Aviation is back in business! Cheers!
This is great. You went about it the right way, respected everybody in passing and executing it, and great work from air traffic services to allow and support it. Top video.
Very nice feeling to fly into one of your country's main international airports, and kudos to one of the great and helpful ATC services given! Brilliant!
Awesome, enjoyed every minute of the video. It felt like I was on the plane too, thank you for sharing so vividly this experience with us. Cheers from Spain 👏🏼
Great Video Stef, I didn't view it so much as a flex but the opportunity to do something extraordinary in these difficult times. As fans of the aviation world seeing all those planes sealed up is greatly depressing and hopefully something we won't see again. But taking the opportunity to land at an international airport and witness it first hand is a masterstroke. Thanks for the journey mate.
Such a fun video to watch! Your excitement really come through in your voice and smile. Fantastic video 🙌
Look at that smile! Kid on Christmas! Love it!
Many years ago I flew into Tulla at night from Lilydale with a few fellow pilots for a Control Tower and Melbourne Radar tour. Will never forget it. Fantastic channel Stef, keep it up mate.
wonderful to see you back in the air. and then some MELBOURNE...
So much love from HKJK and Kenya. Thank you for this inspirational video
Epic adventure Stefan, thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Thanks for sharing this incredible video!! Stay safe and hope to see another one real soon!!
Awesome. Glad you were able to realise a dream. My uncle, who's gone to the great airport in the sky now, used to do a lot of plane and glider instruction to people, including airforce guys, in Tasmania. He would have loved to be able to fly into Melbourne. Nice video. I fly on commercial from Melbourne whenever I can. I love flying, but have hypoglycaemia, so would never be able to take lessons.
Thanks for sharing that David, hope you're back on commercial flights again soon.
I totally feel your excitement having flown into Brisbane International late 2016 in my 172 for the expo. "EYZ clear Melbourne direct 3000" - goosebumps!
That would have been great. I'd like to try Brisbane's new runway too.
I nearly cried watching this as you taxied around Melbourne airport
And man! What a privilege to land there
Kid in a sweet shop, or man in a Cirrus?...Same! - Great vid Stef
nice work. great to see my airport again. as one of the many pilots Virgin pilots on stand down I can't wait to get back to work. good energy from you mate it was good watching.
Thanks Marcus, hope you're back up and flying again soon.
@stefan take Marcus out for a fly!
And imagine if you forgot to press record 😂😂
I’ve done that before!
HAH! who knows, this might be his third time doing this...
I can feel you! Your excitement!
Thanks again for sharing - what a thrill! You're editing is getting super good too!
Stef - your excitement and passion is infectious. I watched this whole episode with a great big smile on my face. I even dragged my two teenage children in to watch you land at Melbourne. Congratulations and thank you for sharing. Also with family members currently affected by the aviation slow-down your heartfelt wishes for the industry are definitely appreciated.
Hey thanks Anthony, and thanks for encouraging your two future pilots to watch too!
I am soooooo jealous soooooo envious, lucky bugger. That looked like so much fun. Thank you for posting video I really enjoyed it.
Spectacular video. Great job. So sad to see all those aircraft sitting on the tarmac. Hopefully, air travel returns soon. Love living vicariously through your videos and adventures. Thankyou 👍
Amazing Stef :-D The smile on your face after contacting TWR...fantastic to see your joy
Absolutely brilliant to see and hear. Stay safe.
Thanks so much for posting. Loved the video. Love your passion.
Been waiting for this since I saw the teaser on your Instagram 😂😂.
One of the first aswell so excited to watch this :)
Thanks for jumping on so fast Grant, hope you enjoy it.
Nice opportunity! I think many people needed to see this. Thanks!
Such an amazing opportunity for you Stef! Must have been so spectacular taxiing past those massive A380s in EYZ. Stay healthy!
Yeah it was a really special experience. I’m looking forward to seeing them back in the air again soon.
I actually caught myself grinning with you Stef. That must have been awesome sharing the same space with the big boys!!
Great video Stefan, can see how excited you were! 😊
Pretty much didn't stop smiling. That was awesome!
I'm an aviation fanatic and had always dreamed of becoming a pilot up until a few years ago when I was diagnosed with Epilepsy and my dreams were shattered. I had been saving up my money for flight school and everything. Now all I can do is watch videos like this and try my best to live vicariously through them. Anyway, this is a beautiful video. Keep up the great work!
Remarkable. Incredible courtesy and cooperation.
// Congratulations to all. Much enjoyed.
Wow! Incredible video! What a dream! Thanks for sharing
I used To fly out of MEL every other week or even every week, missing it a lot. Almost got emotional. Awesome experience. Thanks for sharing.
That is pure excitement!
It was cool to see your excitement on this flight, it was also a reality check with what is going on in this world of ours. I would say it was mostly entertaining seeing you like a 10 year old all giddy. Great flight and kudos to you for your passion and what you are trying to do for the aviation world. It really does deserve better than what it’s going through. 💪💪💪🛩🛩🛩
Outstanding !!!
Really nice video, genuine excitement, must have been an amazing experience, thanks for sharing!
Great video, loved your enthusiasm and excitement.
Thank you very much for your video. Absolutely amazing. I can relate to the feeling of being part of somewhere you don't belong but having the opportunity to have a go. Please keep up the great work
Awesome Stef,something to tick off your bucket list👏 can’t wait to see the planes in the air so I can get up to Queensland to see my daughter.
Congrats on an amazing experience and thanks for sharing it, what a beautiful day for it!

Great video! Made me smile even in this tough time for us commercial pilots! Cheers Stef!
Thanks Matt, I’m hoping things will get moving again soon for us all. Hope you’re back in the skies again soon.
That was awesome what a great video and I could tell you had a great time. Nice job.
Surely one of your best videos! Brought a (literal) tear to my eye as an ex-Melbournian who’s flys out of Vancouver now. You’re such a MASSIVE inspiration to us pilots!
Thanks Adam, I appreciate the kind words.
Hi Stefan! After almost 2 month, it is realy enjoiable to see actually a real person flying in real morld again! Congrats to you for making this dream come tru. As someboby else said, you looked like a child in a toy shop 1 day before christams. Good for you and thanks for making us smile again! A big hugg from northeast patagonia, Argentina.
Cheers Walter, I couldn't stop smiling afterwards as well. A real treat, but I really hope it's the only time I get to do that and the airport starts moving back to normal again now.
What a great video! Super looking plane.
Well done Stefan, great to see your excitement upon landing @ Melbourne. Nice one 👍 (Frank Ireland)
so cool to see the big boys towering all around!
Great video.Felt your excitement
Great video Stef!!! Happy your flying again
Me too, and especially doing flights like this. Thanks for watching.
Amazing thanks for sharing, love the just want to taxi around a bit. Brings back memories of flying into Adelaide airport for a hamburger many a year ago 😎
A dream come true. Congrats!
Great video mate! My dad was at Ansett for 23 years so it brings back memories seeing so many planes grounded. Hopefully for everyone working in the industry it turns around soon.
That looked like it was such a great experience flying in and out of there for ya 🤙 cheers
Yeah that was a hard time for the industry as well. I agree, let's hope we see those planes back in the air again very soon.
This too shall pass.. we’ll bounce back! Thanks for the video Stefan!
