What is the difference between "taxi" and "line up"?
Dear friends and followers
today I´ll be answering another question which was sent in by one of my youtube follower .... "Joe what is the difference between Taxi and Line up?"
Great question!
They are two separate things, that´s for sure.
So let´s imagine you´ve just fastened your seat belts and you can feel the aircraft being pushed back out of it´s gate position. The eninge spoul up and a few minutes later the aircraft starts to move under it´s own power.
The pilots standby for the clear signal by the pushback driver and then request a taxi clearance with ground or apron controller, which will sound similar to this."......" After receiving the taxi clearance the pilots turn on the taxi and runway turnoff lights, release the parking brake and taxi along their assigned route.
Very often you can feel the aircraft slowing down just after it started moving, that indicates a brake check, then you might see the ailerons going up and down, that is the flight control check. On smaller Turboprop jets you sometimes see that only one propeller is spinning, so the pilots are using the single engine taxi procedure. But all these procedures can vary from airline to airline.
Also entering the deicing pad and getting deiced is within the taxi phase.
Sometimes you have to give way for incoming or outgoing traffic, or stop at an active runway which you have to cross in order to get to your holding point. At big airports like Madrid or Los Angeles you might have to change the ground frequency up to four times and taxi times can vary between three minutes and 1 hour or even longer.
To steer the aircraft you either use the tiller or the pedals once the speed is high enough, and the maximum taxi speed is 30 knots, approximately 60km/h and going around a turn should be performed at speeds not higher then 10 knots to prevent the nosewheel from colapse.
So once you´ve reached your holding point at your assigned runway, the ground controller will advise you, once your leaving his perimeter, to switch over to tower control.
The tower controller is in charge of overlooking the approach and departure sector and to give line up, take-off and landing clearances.
The taxi phase ends once the tower controller has cleared you onto to the active runway.
Before lining up, the tower controller will mostly likely ask you if you are "ready for the departure". Once you´ve completed the "Before Take-Off Checklist" you will respond, "AirJoe123, ready for departure","AirJoe123 line up runway 26Right". Once lined up, he will say,"AirJoe123, cleared for
take-off runway 26right".
So the line up starts once you´ve passed the holing point and ends once your airplane fuselage is in line with the runway centerline. You should be fully ready for departure cause if there is inbound traffic you do not want to line up on the runway if you´re not fully ready, possibly causing the inbound traffic to perform a go-around. No you do not want that to happen, trust me!
Line ups can also be performed via runway intersections, and even if there is a airplane waiting at the beginning of the runway.
There are special line up procedures, in Düsseldorf/Germany for example, a Airbus A330 or Boeing 777 will line up in the opposite direction, perform a 180 degree turn to use the full available runway lenth in case of a heavy take-off weight. Special line up guide lines will help the pilot to perform this procedure.
Also there are special line up clearances, for example if you have inbound traffic on short final, like in this video, the tower controller will say "AirJoe123, BEHIND next landing Airbus A321, line up runway 26Right BEHIND". When reading back your clearance, the controller will take extra care that you mention the word "BEHIND" twice.
I hope I´ve answered another aviation related question for you, give me a thumbs up if you enjoyed this video and subscribe my channel if you want to learn more about the world of aviation.
All the best, farewell your Captain Joe
Best English speaking German ever, and i'm not joking =]
Cheers buddy, appreciate your compliment :) greetings Joe
[̲̅G̲̅][̲̅A̲̅][̲̅M̲̅][̲̅E̲̅][̲̅S̲̅] [̲̅&̲̅] [̲̅M̲̅][̲̅O̲̅][̲̅R̲̅][̲̅E̲̅] not 'the best', but really really good...
Doing a good job, Sir. Keep it up. Subscribed!
Are you really German? I thought your are a Brit flying for a German airline!
he has a sexy voice n very cute explanation gd job captain
"They will receive a clearance that sounds like this: [incomprehensible murmuring]"
the only thing I hear is Hold short at alpha 2
definitely the best aviation channel. keep it up.
You can check the Mentour Pilot's channel too =) In my opinion, both of them are great aviators✈💨💨
I know. There are so many Aviation Channels out there.
@@clandestinoclandestino5093I think that mentour pilot is a bit arrogant or sm, stil a great aviator tho
very beautiful and politely speaking personality
,
lots of smiles
and interesting information
these are the good qualities of captain pilots
hes not a captain be cause he only has three stripes on hus shoulder pads
Three stripes correspond to captain, four to commander.
airstalker85 that's totally wrong. The captain is the commander of the plane by nature. 4 stripes is captain. This guy is likely a senior first officer.
Hi everyone might be he is not a captain nor Pilot nor any aeronautic employee, but he is sharing some imp information. If you have a channel do share.
Mandar Patil he is a pilot..bro
Found this Chanel 2 days ago. Im absolutely addicted!!
My father worked as an air traffic controller for 30 years in Ankara Esenboga Airport (Turkey). And also my mother was at AIS (with the new name AIM). Now you are filling the blanks from the eye of the pilot. Great channel. Great topics. thanks
Your videos rock. I'm completely foreign to the world of aircrafts but I find this very interesting !
Thank you very much Samuel :) Greetings Joe
SamuelRQ he’s opened my eyes to whole new career
I want to know what Joe's name is. He is a very fascinating man.
As a controller in the US, you will never hear us say "Line up and wait behind landing/departing *aircraft*". That would be us issuing what we call a "conditional clearance" to a pilot and we are NOT authorized to do that. At least not in the US anyway. Controllers are required to wait until the first aircraft is past the taxiway that you will be departing from and then issuing the "Line up and wait" clearance ("Callsign, Runway ##, Line up and wait. Traffic to exit/Traffic crossing/etc")
Your videos are great Man! Now the many “mysteries” we go through while flying start to make sense! Keep it up!
I never thought of becoming a member of AOPA until I started watching Captain Joe's RUclips Channel and I completed few trainings with AOPA such as Radio Communication (SayItRight), Cockpit Weather, IFR Insights, Runway Safety and Airport Watch General Aviation Security. You are a great teacher and thanks Joe! God bless you with great health, wealth, peace and prosperity!
I feel like your videos are made for people with not a lot of idea for commercial aviation. I understand that your teaching people that have a lot less experience. I also understand that everyone starts learning somewhere! Could you make a video for the more advanced viewers. Such as explaining Oceanic procedures? Thanks , enjoy you're videos besides that!
+Brandon Payne Hey Brandon, thank you very much for your comment and understanding the message I´m trying to send. Sure there will be more videos in the future with topics which might need to be explained in more detail. Greetings Joe
it's great to learn about aviation, watching these older videos shows your English improvement, not that it's bad here, just that you have gotten better recently. amazing to be so fluent.
What language do pilots and ground/tower control use to communicate? Always the host country? The pilots' labguage? Always English? How much do accents get in the way of clear communication?
Eugene Chang English unless it's a small regional airport
I agree with Eugene Chang, however I can name several exceptions: a couple of years ago a Polish government airplane crashed in Russia, because the radioconversation was in solely in Russian. The Polish captain had to fly and communicate with the tower, because he was een only member of the flightcrew who spoke Russian. As a result the plane crashed. On another occasion, an Aeromexico flightcrew talked Spanish with the Cuban tower over a thunderstorm report. And the French airforce talks only French between the tower and their aircraft on training missions.
Yeeeesssss.can't understanding .
@travpoet Yes Sir, I once saw a linguistic map of the Spanish speaking world. Cuban Spanish was depicted as: "Is that Spanish?". So, a hughe difference between Mexican and Cuban Spanish.
English in standard but others may be acceptable as long as the communication is clear enough for both parties, accurate wording is more important.
Ever since Ive watched your videos, they have helped me out a lot when I go flying with the RAFAC. Thanks for all the help since I am being considered for a pilot Scholarship
for "not a pilot" this explanation even very easy to understand... thank you for share this Captain Joe 👮
+Swetha Antil Appreciate your compliment. I will do my best to continue in this style! Greetings Joe
There are a lot of channels out there, this is my favorite. You explain things so well Captain Joe. Keep up the great work.
I watch these so I can be better at flight sim 😃👍
Why do I find everyone of your videos so fascinating ? Apart from being a low airtime paraglider Pilot and an engineer, I have (or had) no aviation knowledge at all , I certainly have no intention of becoming an airline pilot but I absolutely love your videos Captain Joe 👍
thank you Capt, hi from Indonesia
So am I right in thinking there are three contacts?
1. Gate and push crew (from shutdown to active)
2. Ground crew (taxi to lineup)
3. Control Tower (entering runway to take off)
PS: Great choice of music - I love Tangerine Dream!
Good video Joe, I knew a lot of this stuff already, however I didn't know about saying "behind" twice in the readback. Well done.
i love the way you explained , and also gain my knowledge about taxing an aircraft and start up the flight
Brilliant clarity on the content, more power to you.
captain joe is an excellent teacher - his explanations are thorough, clear and concise...
also, the graphics are very nicely done...
i enjoy these videos very much - thank you!
Nice joe. Can you do a video about runway markings (eg the dashes)
+Ben Ockendon Noted and will definitely make a video about that topic :)
+Captain Joe Thanks Joe!
Captain Joe, this may be a repetitive dump question , steering on the taxiway is done with your pedals, at high speed takeoff or landing is it difficult to learn how to keep the plane stable or is there a secret to it.
Really enjoy your videos!!
Another great video. We all appreciate it. I have a question, what are the typical mistakes that airline pilots do? Thank you
Thanks! Puuh good question. Well most mistakes are very minor ones which easily happen due to fatigue! Greetings Joe
The best aviation channel hosted by a pilot....Thanks Captain Joe
+ never heard a German speak English so fluently. :)
Wait your German! I actually thought you were English😳
That´s a huge compliment :) Greetings Joe
Captain Joe WAIT YOU ARE GERMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU LOOK, SOUND, AND FEEL BRITISH
I hear mostly a British accent, more so than a German one.
Lewis Barzola , very cool! Thank you,
ikr he can speak English very well!
I live in Australia and I have to fly out of Gold Coast International Airport (YBGC) to Melbourne International Airport (YMML) and back almost everyday. The airport is very close to homes and buildings, meaning we have 1 engine taxi on a B737-800 Virgin Australia. About 3/4 of taxiing is done without engine #1. This is only in the mornings, because the noise may damage the houses and buildings. And only put about 60% of throttle into the engines, thus creating less noise, using up all of the runway. In Melbourne however. It is massive, and in the mornings both engines can be started up prior to taxiing. Also no homes nearby or buildings.
Everyone: Germans have no humour
Captain joe: am I a joke to You?
Humor hardly fits the ORDNUNG
großartiger kanal, endlich mal informative videos zu allen möglichen themen. vor allem gefallen mir diese ganzen "nerdigkeiten" und sideinfos, wie hier zb über die spezielle line-up procedure in DUS, mehr davon :)
Captain Joe - why are go arounds not good? Btw, your English is perfect. Thank you!
steemdup because it's a heavy load of stress on the engines, also during go around the engines are very inefficient and can't burn the fuel completely as well as usually
steemdup and for passengers, this procedure is on the one hand very exciting (for some passengers) but on the other hand you can feel the enormous force, that pulls you in your seat, maybe not everyone will enjoy this, but I definitely would :D
Not to mention the delays. Imagine missing your connection because some dolt wasn't ready for takeoff and entered the runway.
And there is also the fact that tower will not be impressed with you especially at busy airports where they are under constant pressure to move north of 40 aircraft per hour per runway in some cases. You blocking their active runway because you didn't get yourself in order will go down like a lead balloon.
no that's not right. The Pilots don't have the fault when they need to go around, for example due to bad weather or sth else
I was looking an aviation man who can able to give answer of my questions and finally I got you..............thanks Joe. Keep it up.
Question: how do pilots always keep their plane on the centerline?
Thanks Captain Joe
I enjoy the taxiing and when the plane stops with the cockpit being prepared
Then it heads for the runway for liftoff
Dear Joe
Thanks for your explanations and the way you explain its excellent... please add always your beautiful laugh in your videos... you are awesome
+Roberto Urdaneta Isaacs Thanks buddy, appreciate your kind words :)
Always amazed by all these procedures and these big birds. Imagine what it would be without the tower. Thank you Captain for these videos!
+DanielMVideo Thank you for your kind words, highly appreciated :)
Joe you have most beautyfull smile in the sky
Lucid and expressive indeed, many thanks Captain Joe
I have been flying Ultralight-Planes in Germany and sometimes, i listened to Frankfurt tower. They where speaking so fast and sometimes the mumbled so that i could not understand everything, they said. Sometimes i understood nothing. Do you always understand everything what the tower instructs and are you always sure, that you have understood everything 100% correctly?
I have the same problem Karl,i could never be an air traffic controller.Apart from poor concentration,i really can't understand what they are saying most of the time.
Karl-Alfred Römer In the A380 We get subtitles from ATC directed to our on board computers which helps when the ATC does not speak a language neither I or my co-pilot understand fully. Hope this helps :)
~ JC (2017-2A)
mini dwarfdude damn that's awesome I wish most other planes had that
mini dwarfdude where do these subtitles come from? Are the computer generated in real time?
icndjfk nsbdbd Real time I'm assuming. I'd ask the developers of the program if you'd like
WHY DOES THIS MAN LAUGH SO MUCH?! Every sentence is followed by a giggle!
I guess he's cracking himself up, but he sure does know a hell of a lot about flying.
Who’s on a plane rn?
I noticed showed a picture of the de-icing operator in the enclosed bucket. That brings back memories when I used to operate these at NWA definitely more comfortable than the open bucket having to hold a hot hose of glycol. I had privilege of operating both. The enclosed was more complicated to use bit at least I didn't freeze in the open bucket and the wind blowing glycol in your face. Kinda funny it tastes just like Tutti Frutti Bubblegum.
I have one question, does in real life the quality of the radio is the same as in this video.
No. Most ATC audio you hear is captured on the ground by amateurs and plane spotters. The audio quality in the plane is usually much better.
In aeroplanes the radio is much better but its sounds same like in videos
This reminded me the flight I rode in 2013 which goes from Beijing Capital Airport to Pearson International Airport.
Where we spent about half hour on the taxi way, sitting still to wait other airplanes to land while more airplanes queued up behind us. This totally flooded the taxi way. By the time we started the take off roll, I saw at least 10 aircraft, possibly more, were waiting for the runway.
Even in the aviation industry they brake check XD
Who you trying to get? Virgin Atlantic? Get hit up the back by British airways?
You make me feel like to fly an airplane again after 19 years Joe, good work!
Joe!hello please explain to emergency engine fire!!
I have never listened so intently in my whole life, this is so interesting and informative for someone who travels quite often but knows nothing about aviation, LOL ~ 👍👏 Captain Joe
How do you know when the nose wheel is on the centerline on the taxiway or runway during turns? I have troouble doing it in FSX. I normally turn too early.
MrJetra Prediction
Ifly 777 You mean, learning the feeling of where the aircraft is? Or, do you have a fix point, i.e. in the cockpit or on the horizon?
MrJetra There is. In fsx, it is about at the warning buttons below the glareshield
Ifly 777 Okay, thanks. I will have to exercise myself.
Btw, do you know anything about the genuine Sperry-Honeywell MCP? Of my special interest is the function of the max bank angle under the Heading knob.
This MCP has a rectangular base-shaped heading knob, but how do you set the bank angle? Are they two separate knobs, or is it a knob on a push button (eventually, how do you know the actual bank setting if you just push it)?
MrJetra I don't know sorry.
I have noticed something. You're explanation of these topics are clear and amazing!! Are you an instructor? If not, you should consider being one. You would be a valuable asset to any flight school.
Truth Seeker He is not. He is still a First Officer
So the Tower control says "Are you ready"....but what if the pilot says "Nope"
Then tower would ask about the situation and how the crew would deal with it, should the problem couldn’t be dealt fast by the crew on the holding point, the plane will be removed from the runway either by having it taxis or being tugged to somewhere the tower assigned for it (e.g. the de-icing pad of the runway). In emergencies which the plane cannot be removed (fire, crash...etc), the runway would be closed off.
Joe thanks so much for the time you take to help us get more knowledge, You are a great human being.
what is APU
Video will follow, it´s the Auxilary Power Unit!
Thanks !
Hearing your words about taxi time up to 1 hour and more I remember how we landed in Charles de Gaulle and were taxing for around 20-30 minutes to terminal LOL
0:16 your laughing is so nice . Really I like it . Captain are you still in service. By the way this is the best channel in aviation informations. Love from India
Hello Captain Joe, Thank you very much for your videos and efforts. I have a question if you don't mind.
lets say your taxiway path is C B A A1, and when you reach B you will see a sign of black C in the middle and yellow B with arrow to the left and yellow B with arrow to the right.
How do you know where to go right or left to proceed with B if you are not familiar with the airport?
Thanks in advance.
Very interesting. I can remember sitting in a plane taxing whilst watching 3 planes in a row land before we entered the runway (Pearson International in Toronto). I'm a nervous flier, but that was fun to watch them land from so close.
very nice person indeed full of smiles always ,telling all about aviation..thanks mate
I just love your deep insights on an Aviation topic. It is also perfect the way you elucidate the topic! Thank you!
Hi Joe . How the pilot keep the wheels steady during such high speed . ???
If you mean the takeoff run, the pilot uses the rudder pedals to keep the aircraft aligned to the runway.
You explain everthing so that everybody understand it, really nice !!
Please make video on how to be a or the procedure to become pilot ,please joe
These videos are so good and give good information and diagrams of what joe is trying to explain
I really enjoy the way how you explain all of this.
Thanks Mr. Captain Joe!
Greetings from México 😎🇲🇽
Nice explanation. For taxi, i hear few pilot need to "juggling" if the plane can pass with middle yellow line. On planes like A380 or 777, both planes uses external camera. For line up, i found some flight are took off immediately (i mean pilot start to increase take off when lined up without stop)
Best explanation ever! Thanks! Could you tell about the hold short of - why this instruction is used before RW only? And is possible to say hold short of TW if you enter the maneuvering area?
Love your "insider" information on flying!
Very polite speaking.
I want to ask you a question that why they numbered the runway as 26 or 27 though they have only one or two runway for takeoff and landing.
Plz make a video for this question.
Thank you.
Now there’s a man who loves his job !
😘This happy face is my thumbs up for you. Thank you so much.
thank you my ever smiling captain.. you make aviation look simpler
Love the Tangerine Dream in the background....
Joe speaks better English than many of us Americans (not me, I speak perfect English). ;-) Great vlogs! Danke!
Jos this is good I tell you sincerely.I am enjoying this stuff.Keep it up.Your presentations show that yo know your aviation man.Brilliant.
I have a question. How atc are able to give clearance to so many aircrafts at once .how they are able to connect and how confusion is been avoided?
Depending on airport facilities, ATCs in a low tech airport may rely on pilots’ timely reports to keep track of them and plot their route on airport ground chart, better airports would have ground radar to provide more accurate (and mostly real time) tracking, the most advanced airports would have ground movement sensors and other equipments to compensate what ground radar alone could not cover.
Joe, ,I have recently completed my third flying lesson but still unsure of the best way to become a commercial airliner pilot. Keep making the videos. 😄🛫🛩✈️
It amazes me how pilots and ATC understand each other over the radio. I can't make out a thing! Throw in different English accents to make things even harder. I swear, if I became a pilot I'd be screaming *'WHAT?!!'* over the radio all day!!
hey, cap...
How do plane could go straight on the taxi line??
Is there any cam on the nose gear??
Very clear explanations...... i appreciate Mr CAPTAIN.
Hey joe we surely know what is taxi and line up but can you upload a video on the hold short and immediate take-off
Could you explain the procedure when the plane is about to touch ground?
Hello @Captain Joe ... I really liked your videos... I have a question though ... "How do you land your plane in case of some engine failure just after takeoff (let's assume because of bird-hit) and your airplane's weight is much above the maximum permissible landing weight? Would you dispense all your fuel? If yes, how would you do that because you are much closer to ground?
Excellent video, look forward to seeing more!
Captain Joe, I've been a fan since I watched your video on "Why do planes dump fuel" and "Why are planes 0ainted white". I would like to become a fighter some day, as I am passionate on flying. Would you give us a brief video on all the aircraft control mechanism, like the roll, pitch and yaw and how they are controlled and what it does to the airplane? Please??
I like your card with the logo on the back. Great video
The controller will also give you wind direction and speed and tell you to contact departure on a frequency once airborne. At least here in North America they do.
great you are capt joe. i want to know how you keep nose wheel exactly on yellow strip? thank you
Ronald Reagan National Airport in D.C. (actually just outside D.C.) has three runways. I spent a full hour on the viewing spot. Only one runway was in use, for leaving and landing. It was fascinating to see how every leaving plane got on the runway as soon as another one had landed. It was perfectly coordinated.
Now I have seen this video I understand this is not a daily occurence in airtraffic. Kudos to the tower there!
Love yours videos Captain Joe. Congratulations from Brazil.
I fly a Boeing 747-8. Everything you said is absolutely true and amazing. Nice to see a pilot give RUclips sessions. Keep it up man! @captainjoe
Nishith Reddy bruh this is basically a flight lessons and even though I have a long way till I get to college i have been fascinated by planes and I can already be prepared
I can fly a toaster ^-^)
Great channel, great smile and talking. Thumbs up.
can you do a video on what the different ATC jobs are? like ramp frequency, ground, tower, arrival and departure frequencies, etc. thanks!
HI Sir, I am not an aviator but dr of medicine. I am addicted to your explanations and I understood partly many terminologies and procedures from your videos. Sir can you tell me at what points or distances at which apron, ground, tower approach/departure frequencies or control area do change. Dr Sohail
Lahore.
the Ground Chart is from EDDM out of Terminal 1 probably Gate 103 via O1 C1 to entry N1 thereafter N A2 which is the Holdingpoint for Heavys :p
Holy shit I had no idea you were even German in your recent vids thats how good your English is at this point. Wow I wish I was multilingual. Need to keep studying.
Thank you Captain Joe! Love your channel! Your explanations are very clear and your video are not too long to get bored haha
Captain Joe, I have a query. Suppose while crossing a mighty ocean lile Atlantic which takes roughly six hours., while in the middle portion of the ocean if there is a medical emergency for a passenger where will you land. To my knowledge there is not even a single Island nation with medical facilities in mid Atlantic
Beautifully explained. Thank you, Captain Joe! I am a big fan of your videos.
