An excellent example of what a miracle of technology and aviation engineering is the Instrument Approach. At 1000 feet, and probably three or four miles from the threshold, you couldn't see anything. Could be flying through pea soup. But once the plane broke through the clouds, there was the runway, with the plane lined up on centreline and glide slope. A perfectly stabilised approach. All the PAPI lights the right colour. If the pilot couldn't see the runway at the right time, there was the "minimums" callout to let them know they needed to go around. Flying commercial is absolutely the safest way of travelling around the world. And we have decades of experience and learning and hard work on the part of the commercial aviation community to thank for this.
I just did a 25 minute descent in thick fog just like this. Plus it was wet and slushy snow at the time with rough turbulence throughout the entire descent
@@Sabar0_S The self-destruct feature isn't just there for no reason... the AI knows very well, when to switch it on. Only the captain can override it, but he must act within 5 seconds, or the AI assumes he has concurred, and initiates the final countdown.
Yes, although autoland was not enabled here - you can see that only the autopilot A is engaged (both A and B would be engaged to enable autoland.) Just after 1:00 or so, the captain disengages the autopilot after the approach lights come into view. The rest of the approach and landing are completed manually.
The weird sound as the runway was visible was the autopilot being turned off by the pilot. There is a type of approach the plane lands by itself. I did one in my career landing at night in LAX. Requires a certified crew, plane and landing equipment. The hard part was locating the gate!!!
They use ILS for runway alignment and correct glidslope that allow them to align correctly with runway and descent at the good rate, without having visual outside, once they get visual reference with runway they disconnect AP and bring the plane down, ILS system would be capable to land automatically, but is not allow for safety reason it must be the pilot to land manually the aircraft, in case you reach the “minmum” call from GPWS (Ground proximity warnging system) and you still don’t have visual on runway you have to abort landing, and considering another attempt or change into alternative airport
That is the definition of trust in the process.

in flight simulator?
@@papay100 bro did it in Xplane 11 probably 🤣
@@windshearahead7012is there something wrong about using xplane?

Can’t get enough of this View
Very nice... 👍🏻✈️
Great video! I love the 737 cockpit! A dream to fly!
Thanks a lot!
I think the titles confusing I don’t think it was a foggy cockpit I think most of the fog was outside in the natural environment😂
Awesome. 30...20...10...touchdown...minimums!!!
Damn son! What graphics card do you have?
Well done!
Nice!
1:07 what is the meaning of that sound?
Autopilot disconnect
Self destruct but the pilots aborted it
@@LOKSTED 🤣 thank God they aborted it
Autopilot disconnect

Can the jetliner land on his own? Cuz it looks like no hands on
It certainly can
Yes indeed.

Broke out right on centerline and glideslope, perfect. 👍
Did the pilot use ILS or was he auto till the last min?

twardawao ale prawidlowo w takich warunkach nie ma sie co pierdzielic i ryzykowac GA 10/10
It was a hard landing.
90 łapek ;) z moja :P
Nothing compares to the 737-800 not the max
Landed hard and under glideslope. Four red papi.
