- Wellington Airport at it's best... gusty northwesters up to 60knots were the best show in town on Friday January 13th 2012. Note: The AirNZ 73 retunred to AKL and how stable are those A320s!
Wellington where the pilots regularly get a round of applause for being able to land the damn plane without killing everyone
Or if you fly Ryanair.
@@JesusCliment "This is your captain speaking. Some news for everyone, hope you're all sitting down. Oh wait, you're not. This is Ryanair. Most of you are standing. Anyway, we're going to be returning to the origin airport because of weather conditions. Hope you didn't have a connecting flight."

I’m a frequent flyer and I’ve seen my fair share of turbulent landings. But after landing in Wellington for the first time... I needed a new pair of trousers 😂
I hear ya, been there too with wellington landings 😂💩
If you can land a plane in Wellington, you can land a plane anywhere in the world.
This is where I learned to fly and earned my pilots license...LOL!
@@skibumwa2001 did you fly at the wellington aero club. Just did my frist and second solo a few days ago
@@gitto3654 yes I did. That's where I trained. In December 2011, I won the Student Pilot of the Year award.
@@skibumwa2001 wow nice 👌
I think you forgot LUKLA and COURCHEVEL airport
if you've ever been to Wellington you'd know how windy it gets
I've been there once but the first time I went on a flight it was to Auckland and when we landed I thought there was a Tornado. You can tell I was a young 2016 boy.
Well wellington is the windiest major city in the world
One time I was flying back into Welly, super windy night..
The couple beside me, middle aged Canadians, never been to Wellington before, the wife was beside me (in a 3 seat combination on an A330)
They hadnt spoken a word to me the whole flight (3 hrs), night flight from sydney
The woman beside me on approach grabbed my hand. was so nice, but i whispered in her ear that this is Wellington, its quite often like this and that the best reason to fly AirNZ is because they are experts at this
"Whatever blows your hair back", as we say here, in Aotearoa..
I enjoy a good landing in dear old Wellywood...
The first ANZ737 had massive wind shear over the threshold. Fantastic save and decision, the wind looked terrible. I was based at leeds/bradford in the UK on 737's. This looks like the NZ equivalent. Great vid.
oh god .....flying into Wellington next week in this blustery spring weather! Managed to repress my two earlier bumpy landings and the take off from hell I'd experienced before...until now.
I've seen some crazy crosswind landings but dayum Wellington is a tough airport to handle in those conditions. Great work by all the pilots to even make it that close to the threshold in those kind of winds, even better when they made contact and made the landing.
Flown to and from Wellington heaps of times. Those pilots are extremely skilled and on a very short runway. They have to get it right or no option except to abort the landing.
well done to all the pilots, and amazing job to those in the donair and the dash 8, awesome control over those small planes
I realise you've probably learnt this in the last nine years, but the first turboprop was actually an ATR.
Even when they are actually on the tarmac they are still struggling with cross winds.
The pilots that not only land but get their planes back to their park when cross winds are trying to take them out are epic. True pilots , not ute drivers. Thank you. Namaste.
I watches 1000's videos in aviation, I love it, but, crosswind landing like this ?? Never, ever, These pilots simply are amazing and super . OMG, I just could not believe two video I watched landing in Wellington NZ ! I am going to try with FSX .
Thanks for sharing this airside tv. it it amazing.
Holy-crapped-my-pants on the first attempt!
Air speed - 110 kts
Ground speed - 3 kts
110 knots gives stall pull up terrain terran pull up
nice shot with the ferry in the back ground
Watching this reminds me of the first time I flew in over the white horses (seems like within touching distance beneath you), then the plane bounces and dances around landing until finally settled on the runway. Much prayer and holding of breath!
Now you all know why I refuse to fly into Wellington...Once was enough thank you!
the best part of a trip to Wellington is the landing. Who needs theme park rides.
Great demonstration of crosswind/windshear landings. Pilots earning their money.
Who else is kiwi and looking at these comments just to make themselves feel great about being a kiwi?
+bala x yes mate!
me
bala x wtf your weird
Wellington Born and Bred if I didnt live here, I dont think I'd be able to handle turbulence as much as I am able, but it doesnt even bother me. Windy Welly all the way! Lol
Queenstown '' Adveture capital of the world '
Auckland '' City of sails ''
Taihape ''Gumboot town ''
Wellington '' adventure landing capital of the world .[free complements Wellington airport corp . ]
The windshear on the first clip is insane, well caught by the pilot who looked like he avoided any damage to the landing gear.
That was a 737-800. Compared to the first 737 that went around twice, the 800 wings are longer in addition to the winglets. It handles better on this kind of wind. Very nice landing.
I don't ever feel scared with planes on youtube, but this... I can't believe it but I shivered when I saw those wings flexing like a hurricane is pushing the hell out of them! anyway, what a masterpiece of landings! never saw a plane vid with so good and so bad things in a brilliant way as this...
I fly there tomorrow. I so should not be watching this video right now! :/
They are used to it there.
just tight your seat belt and your good to go. the roller coaster factor is free of charge!
thanks, I've just watched it, it's really kinda stunning how short the runway is ^^
2080 metres / 6827 feet. Total length :-)
@@kyblack123 Why don't they lengthen it?
@@vikkimcdonough6153 Beaurocracy and incompetence are the reason, Vikki. The idea of an extension was first brought up over 70 years ago and then for 60 years, the argument amongst all the affected groups was whether to extend to the north or south [extending it to the south was going to cost about 3 times more]. In the interim, the cost of extending to either direction has escalated one hundred-fold and it wasn’t until about 10 years ago that the pilots input was actually taken notice of being…. It can’t be extended to the north because of the hills that must be cleared when approaching from the north would mean having to descend at too steep a gradient to land safely on the new extension. So now that’s finally been recognised, now the cost of the extension blows-out any cost/benefit of having the extension in the first place. LOL
@@kyblack123 Extending the runway to the north would still allow a longer landing distance for planes landing from the south, though, even if it wouldn't benefit planes landing from the north.
@@vikkimcdonough6153 Wellington winds can get pretty strong and being that planes need to land heading into the wind, if they only land from the south with a strong tailwind behind them, it would probably negate having the extra length of runway
Amazing, I can watch this over and over again, Good job. and pro pilots. WOW.
I've been on these flights into Wellington. Very scary I can tell you.
Holy hell, you can see the wings literally SHAKING from that far away on the climbout of the missed approach!
Nice video! Ton's of action!
These pilots are absolute legends!
I remember when we landed here about 10years back ... I swear we were nearly coming in at a 45degree angle. Ppl were clapping when the captain made it!
Being from Wellington, I’m sort of used to it all now. The funniest time I can remember was back in May ‘83. My wife and i were returning from Oz to supposedly have our wedding reception back with my family in Wellington that evening. The plane attempted 3 landings and on the 3rd, a flight attendant threw up and there were 3 Aussie guys in the back saying the Lord’s Prayer. Unfortunately we had to then divert to Auckland and even after breaking the speed limit driving Auck> Welly in a rental, we still missed our own wedding reception. LOL
This video really does show how much better the A320 can withhold the windy weather in WLG than the 733
ANZ and some of the other pilots who land there are some of the best in the world!
I've been to Wellington and we went to mount Victoria and just watched the planes land it was amazing
3:45 HOW THE HELL DID HE DO THAT?!? Some planes went around and that was amazingly smooth!
NZ skills :)
+AdwikblockMCnoteblocks Nz skills :)
+Bala Cawood haha guess it is! (Same person, different channel)
Look at the plane tail, that how that land so smooth
Why assume it’s a he?
60 knot winds are rather common in some areas. As a retired weather observer/forecaster.I have seen lots of airliners land with 60 gusts, including Las Vegas, NV: Barrow, AK Barter Island, AK, and many others. I saw wind gusts to over 100 mph in Columbus, GA.
Just had a flight into Vegas and nearly shat myself. Sooooo turbulent and intense.
Thats crazy! Those wings sure did flex alot!
Few simple things really. The 737 has a sharp nose cone shape, while the A320 has a more rounded shape to its cone. The 737 generally have a flat bottom look their engine. And the cockpit windows on the a320 are diagonally facing downwards at the front, while the 737 is completely flat. Hope that helped.
Best training for any pilot is landing in Wellington.
Nothing makes you so grateful for solid ground, like a bumpy landing into the capital. Lol
Nice compilation!! Well put together. Well shot!! Get's kinda windy there, huh??
Excellent pilots!
I'm watching this and at the same time the tv is playing the foo fighters song "learn to fly" LOLZ
The atr-72 landing Was the best of all.!
You can just tell by the waves in the background how rough the wind is.
So many times circling above Wellington. Many landings where everyone claps
n.b the brave non Air NZ pilots who nailed it. One each, I think, from QANTAS, Jetstar and Origin Pacific.
That´s why it is so hard to get an pilot license! Great job!!
i was in one of these i reckon..the most harrowing landing ive ever experienced.
Very nice! Excelent skill of the pilots! Great video :)
That pilot is CRAZY!
Best landings video ever!!!
It's always fun being onboard with people who have never landed at Wellington before 😎
I do believe I would have shat my pants had I been sitting in the back.
the airport is on reclaimed land forming a land bridge to the north shore , yes the wind rushes through from the sea as the area is a nautral wind tunnel. landing in a friendship (prop) was the scariest miss home!
great to watch. i note that only a couple of notches of flaps are used . standard procedure when carrying a few more knots to deal with xwind ?
just to add in my bits, wellington airport is located in a sort of wind tunnel. surrounded by hills both sides, so the winds that come through there can get quite strong.
Remind me to take a boat!
hahahahaha thats way worse. they regularly close the crossing cause its to dangerous
I had a connecting flight taking me from my town, to Wellington, to Sydney and it was the first time I ever landed in Wellington. It was one hell of a land, I could FEEL the wind that was blowing us around😂😂👀💀😳
very nice video !!!!
I have experience ride this AirNZ (All crazy black) plane at Wellington. I am not scare. Because Pilot is experience a lots times this Wellington most all times. I love it's rough !
It really does get that windy, and often. Never been a crash there either.
haha friday 13... all us superstitious kiwis would have been thinking their number was up on some of these approaches.
Oh boy that was some crazy footage
i like this because i like how the plane works
The video is like: previously all Boeings have failed to land and now the Airbus' turn. Success.
What does this tell you? XD
Boeing is better than Airbus does that answer your question
+mrcannotfindaname It tells me that if its aint boeing, im not going.
Airbus is better in windy conditions? :)
Wow the first 737 got into a really nice windshear
Atr and the Q300 casually landing whilst the 737 goes around 3 times 😂
I’ve flown to and from wellington a couple of times and that is one super windy place. I’ve had two of my flights cancelled due to wind and weather but yeah. It’s windy xD
The first landing is very impressive !!
Obviously something went quite seriously wrong in the first clip, was that an instance of wind shear? And what would you typically announce to the passengers? They must have been terrified. Also why is it SOP to retract the landing gear in a go-around? Does it help with control, or trim, or is it just a best practice so that you're ensured of the best possible performance in such a situation?
Have only been here once and thankfully got smooth conditions. Great video though - do you mind if I feature on of the first clips in a video? With full link back to your channel / credit of course. Cheers
COMPLETELY AMAZING!!
Pilots do their best,to land their passenger aircrafts
and what a beautiful background!
@bidutzul amazing given that the bluebridge ferry is only designed for the Med and not Cook Strait!!
BTW - Love that BLACK plane
This is very impressive :) greetings from the Caribbean
I find it interesting that in a six minute video so titled, it takes two minutes before you actually see a landing.
But actually, airnz 777-300ER did come by empty there is a youtube vid of it if you wanna see it ;)
Im told by staff that Wellytown is one of the reasons we make pretty good pilots . Our weather generally, and topography make some interesting local conditions. And some bastard approaches......anyone fancy driving a 737 into Queenstown in crap like this ???.....but they do....
( and yes, of course it gets worse....)
I was on one of those A320s and it certainly didn't feel smooth! Pilot did a great job though.
Nice job of 'crabbing' for the Aerospatiale ATR.
Quel beau spectacle, bravo au commandant de bord.
Awesome video! Great pilots!
look at the wing flex of the 737 at 1:10
Not that much. They experience. More on landing than that.look at an a380landing the wing flex is amazing.
Local knowledge beats price anytime....
Fantastic footage, please keep the camera rolling.......
awww..the poor ATR was like ....put me down....put me down!!!......Great job by the flight crew though!
From Wikipedia: A hurricane or typhoon is a system with sustained winds of at least 34 metres per second (66 kn).
Super video thanks for sharing...
I've got extremely accurate scenery for all of New Zealand, Australia for FSX courtesy of Orbx FTX Full Terrain Experience. Cool stuff.
so fun with newzeland air landing !
How many lunched needed to be scraped off the aircraft’s ceiling as a result of the sudden downdraught at 0:20? 2:35 makes me want to have airliners covered in RCS thrusters. Impressive flying skills, anyway!
some real skill right there
great work very nice
All these heavy aircrafts in windy weather... like paper planes.
Un vídeo impresionante. Gracias por compartirlo.
I agree, windshear will affect each aircraft different. Saying a 737 is more affected than a A320 is like saying one gets more wet in the rain...enough of the childish comments. All pilot aborts were a great outcome and sensible.
Holy mother... the first landing XD WINDSHEAR! WINDSHEAR! WHOOP WHOOP! PULL UP!
