This was an interesting combination: Autoland and the ship very close underneath our approach path. Both are very rare things. Almost all our landings are done manually. We only do autolands if the weather is not good enough for a manual landing.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Indeed, it's a rare sight to see autoland unless it's testing for certification.. usually pilots I see turn it off just before touching down because they can usually see the runway as by then. I thought it was great how it handled that crosswind.. it kicked the rudder perfectly! And that ship was so cool looking! I had spent several minutes checking it out and then saw that you had put a still of it at the end. I always watch your videos several times to watch different aspects of it. I thought I had just missed the side stick view the first time because I was zoomed up but knew it had been autoland when you said autopilot off after touchdown. So cool!! Thank you again for doing these videos!!!
@@crypto1701 Yes, I agree. It handled the crosswind better than expected. This was a perfect landing. Autoland is only possible if the airport and the systems are certified for CAT 3 operations. Also, the airport needs to make sure that the signal is not disturbed by other airplanes, ground vehicles … The result is that we only do autolands if ATC clears us for an autoland approach and a manual landing may be impossible due to the weather.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos That has to be very strange to let it land itself! I know you're ready to take control but you're not in control at the most dangerous point in the flight, other than maybe takeoff, and that has to be a bit unnerving!
As a passenger many people relax and start to think about the onward journey shortly after a landing. But with you and the FO you still have the taxiing to do - which in this case needed great care due to the low visibility. I admire your ability to stay focussed until the journey is fully over. The ship appearing was like a mirage - wonderful. Thank you!
Thank you very much for watching and the comprehensive feedback! All airports are different on the ground. You are right, we have to stay 100 % focused until arriving at the parking position! Have a great day!
Very interesting to see an autolanding. I assume this is quite rare and even with all your experience, does it still feel a bit strange to not be controlling the landing? Great video as always 🙂
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Yes, you are 100 % right. We are very well trained for this situation. But it feels somehow strange if we let the airplane land itself. Most of the time the weather is good enough for manual landings. Autolands are very rare.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Would the plane autobrake with reversers if you had left the autopilot on or are the reversers something that you have activate manually? I was reading an article yesterday that said the average person couldn't land a plane like in the Airport movies, based on a test group of 4 people. The did say communications would be the hardest thing to figure out but it should be tuned to some channel that someone is listening to and, since autopilot can land the plane, it seems like all a flight attendant (I'm assuming they'd take over if both pilots were incapacitated) would have to do is turn the parking brake before it goes off the runway.. if the autopilot can do the majority of the braking.
@@crypto1701 The reversers must be activated manually. Before that, also the thrust levers must be moved manually to idle. The autobrake system slows the airplane down. The autopilot has nothing to do with the autobrake system. The autopilot keeps the airplane on the centerline after landing. Until the autopilot is switched off.
That ship emerging from the mist was really cool. I thought it was a reflection in the windscreen at first. Auto landings are so incredible though...I'm pretty sure I would be so tense trying one in real life that I'd end up looking like a pretzel.
The ship was really special. We do not see something like that very often. The autolands require simulator training which has to be redone every 6 month.
Flying from VIDP to EDDB using MSFS2020 in the cockpit of an A339 while watching your video.....best combination! Congratulations to AP for its excellent performance.Thank you Captain for your top-notch videos and for the invitation in your office. Is the only way to have access in a real flight deck.
Thanks for watching and your good feedback! One of the reasons why I make the videos is that the flightdeck door had been permanently closed for passengers a few years ago. With the videos, I try to show the same things the passengers saw when sitting on the flight deck jump seat.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I was lucky because in the old good days i had the opportunity to watch take off and landings 40+ times in the real cockpit. A Big Big Thank you to Captains for the amazing experience and as well to you. You are doing exactlly the same think with your videos spending so much time recording and editing. Thank you.
Those sweeping turns - perfect point to start the video, stunning views! Incredible to see that ship appear suddenly from within the fog/haar. I’ve only just noticed the very detailed time stamps throughout, such a great feature. While I love the intrigue, in-depth investigations and drama of channels like Mentour Pilot, I love your content because it’s so relaxing. It’s just watching & listening to professionals doing their job. There’s beautiful views in different weather and relaxing voices talking through checklists. You get to see airports you might not otherwise and certainly from a unique viewpoint! It’s a channel I would recommend to nervous fliers and to other aviation geeks.
Thank you so much for watching, for your kind words and for your detailed feedback! This is very helpful! And, please tell all your aviation interested friends about the channel! Thanks in advance! Have a great day!
Your channel is spectacular, please continue to show us, aviation enthusiasts, these wonderful approaches and excellent piloting. Thanks for this superb video! Regards from Brazil!
Thank you as always for the upload, Captain Stefan! An amazing video as always, particularly the ship on final! [And I always find it interesting when you mute the audio for "technical reasons"...respect to you for being careful and thoughtful about what you upload in order to hopefully protect the longevity of this wonderful channel]
It is very common for such approaches that the weather is good during the approach and becomes foggy only shortly prior to the landing. Here on the channel is another example of aCAT3 approach to LHR: ruclips.net/video/lQSB3SQ_2F4/видео.html
Thank you for sharing such and amazing approach and landing - the ship thru the fog was very cool........Always great to watch a Cat 3 approach with low RVR and to watch such professionalism in action...Would fly with this crew anytime!
Super gut. Mit Anzeige des PFD und des ND und der Aktionen der Piloten, sodaß man genau sehen kann was wann gemacht wird. Sehr lehrreich. Wirklich super
Vielen lieben Dank fürs Anschauen und das hilfreiche Feedback! Bitte allen luftfahrtinteressierten Menschen von meinem Kanal erzählen! Vielen Dank vorab für die Mühe und noch einen schönen Tag!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos und keine nervige Musik zwischendrin. Das gibt einen extra🥰. Ich werde mir alle deine Videos ansehen, ich glaube ich kann für die Bedienung des MSFS2020 und des Fenix A320 einiges lernen. Also vielen Dank!
I hadn't watch the intro and only listened to it for a while, but the moment you mentioned "NO DH" for minimums in the approach checklist I got quite excited as I knew it will be an autoland! Great watching one in the daytime, after the first one you uploaded here which was at night! Hello from SIN/WSSS.
Thanks for watching and for be a regular viewer of my videos! You are correct. My first uploaded autoland video was LHR at night. Many greetings to Singapore! LHR autoland is available here: ruclips.net/video/lQSB3SQ_2F4/видео.html
i love Saturday mornings first thing kettle on coffee made then You tube for my fav channel me and my wife are going on holiday to Tenerife in 5 weeks we would of loved it if you was our pilot but unfortunately we going with TUI but you are on our bucket list to be on a flight with you as our Captain / pilot your videos are absolutely brilliant your energy and enthusiasm is 2nd to none stay safe and keep the videos coming
Thank you so much for watching and your friendly words! Please tell all your friends who like aviation about the channel. I wish you a wonderful vacation on Tenerife Island!
Beautiful video of a rare situation. Your calmness is incredible, despite the very low RVR values. It is always a pleasure to see you at work. Greetings from Verona (LIPX - VRN)
Wow, was für ein toller Anflug. Besonders das Schiff im Nebel, möchte wissen das der dortige Kapitän wohl gedacht hat :-D. Vielen Dank, dass wir daran teilhaben durften.
Vielen lieben Dank fürs Anschauen und das gute Feedback! Ja, der Anflug wird mir in Erinnerung bleiben. Autoland im Nebel mit einem Schiff direkt vor bzw. unter uns. Das habe ich so noch nie gesehen.
Classic 160 kts until 4 DME at EKCH leaves little room for getting fully establish in time. Juuust made it at the 800' here it seems (which was a special condition with early flaps 3 conf as I understood). Nice timing. And very nice seeing an approach to EKCH, and autoland in action.
Thanks for watching and your detailed observations! Yes, 160 to 4 miles final requires some special measures, like flaps 3 before the gear and the gear down at about 4 DME. Also the stabilization height was lowered to 800 feet. Due to the low approach speed and good gliding characteristics, the A319 is usually established at 800 feet. The A320 would be established earlier due to a higher approach speed.
Wow! As always great video, I like to see the special ''image'' on final with the large ship, in this moment you want that some drone will be there to catch it. With all your experience is it still scary to not see clearly the runway? A kind of uncertain situation and a lot of reliance on many systems. Wish you all the best and hope to see your next video :)
Thanks for watching and your good feedback! We are very well trained and monitor the automatic approaches and landings thoroughly. All systems have backup systems. If something fails, nothing bad happens and we know exactly what to do. It is not scary to do an autoland in fog. The only thing which is always a surprise is how nicely and smoothly the autoland is done. Some automatic landings are really smooth, others not so.
I haven't been recommended your videos for a while! And I still enjoy it. Just last Saturday I flew on VATSIM on an A321NEO. Had to do a soft go around due to not seeing the runway but I enjoy your video! Can't wait to see more! Edit: I have done quite a bit of CAT III DUAL approaches autoland. Very weird not to hear MINIMUMs (around 200ft at airports I fly haha). For flaps 3 approach, you have to enable it on the GPWS panel right?
Thanks for watching! I suggest that you subscribe to my channel and switch on the notification bell. Then you should be notified when a new video is available. You are correct, for flaps 3 approaches, you need to push the flaps 3 button on the GPWS panel. Also, you need to set flaps to 3 on the performance approach page to increase the approach speed in accordance.
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen! Automatische Landungen sind sehr selten. Hier auf dem Kanal gibt es noch ein weiteres Video von einer automatischen Landung bei Nacht in London (LHR). Vielleicht ist das ja auch interessant. Das ist der Link dazu: ruclips.net/video/lQSB3SQ_2F4/видео.html
As always thank you so much for uploading, always interesting and informative to watch so thank you for the privilege of seeing these videos and editing etc! I'm still hoping one day you'll show one of the ecam displays (? I can't remember if this is the correct term). Anyway best wishes from England!
Thank you very much for watching and your friendly words! I would love to show more displays but this is - due to the very limited possible camera locations - more difficuld than most people think. I hope to come up with something over the time. Thanks again and best wishes to England!
Thanks for watching and your great feedback! It does everything automatically, including the flare and the rollout on the runway. You can also see that it reduces the power automatically to idle in the flare. The FMA shows Power Idle before I reduced the thrust lever to idle. This only happens during an autoland approach. During a manual approach with autothrust on, the thrust is set for the approach speed until the thrust levers are moved to idle by the pilot during the flare.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for your feedback too. I guess also (in general) when there is fog the winds are generally light if not zero which is good for auto land
Thanks for the good feedback and your request. The destinations in my schedule are always a surprise. When they schedule me to Gothenburg I try to record a video. But this may take a while. Please stay tuned.
For me in the cockpit the low visibility approach is always very interesting because the plane does the landing by itself. We just look and see and check if everything is right. Everything is redundant so that a failure of a system would be no problem. Worst case would be that we abort the approach and divert to another airport with better weather.
Thank you very much for watching and for supporting the channel as a member! No, autoland is not dependent on the QNH. The airplane is following for the vertical path the glideslope signal from the airport and the landing flare is based on the signals of the radio altimeters of the airplane.
We do not get personal reports of our landings as long as everything is in limits. All the flight data are recorded and tracked without reference to a certain pilot for trend monitoring reasons. If we are interested, we can generate an electronic report after landing which shows the G-load of the last landing.
Puh war das in Kopenhagen neblig mit Autopilot landen Alle Achtung ⚠️ ich ziehe den Hut vor Ihnen Lieben Dank fürs mitnehmen bitte machen Sie so weiter
Thanks for the good feedback! The 3 minutes are for the cooldown of the engine. In general, the engine manufacturer wants us to wait with the shutdown for 3 minutes after high thrust application. We could switch the engine off earlier, but on the long run, this would not be good for the longevity of the engine.
wow that was awesome 🤩 One question: You did (non standard) Flaps 3 & said "So we only need to be established at 800ft." Are the 800ft, when non standard Flaps 3, just a company procedure or a general one?
Good question. ATC required us to fly 160 knots or more up to 4 nautical miles final. In cases like this, the usual 1000 feet gate is reduced to 800 feet. This is a company regulation. Without this regulation we would be unable to follow such speed instructions because the plane needs some time (and altitude) to slow down.
Great video, we flew in and out of CPH last week from EDI. There seemed to be long ATC delays because of staff capacity problems. On the return leg we left the gate only to get parked at de-icing platform B for 35 minutes. One question: With a Cat 3 landing, do ground operations have to reduce capacity significantly to keep ILS critical areas clear?
Thanks! I am sorry to hear about your delay. How much CAT 3 operations reduces the capacity is depending (among other things) on the layout of the airport. I think that Copenhagen only reduces the flow rate a little bit because it uses the other runway for takeoff and after landing, the high speed turnoffs will help to get the planes fast out of the ILS critical area.
Amazing views and video, out of pure ignorance when the aircraft says ‘retard’ is it something you as the pilot has to initiate or does it automatically flare? What a fantastic video, they are so interesting every time. Thank you!
Thanks for watching and your good feedback! During an autoland, the flare is done automatically by the airplane. During the flare, the airplane also automatically retards the thrust to idle. The movement of the thrust levers by the pilot to idle at 10 feet just confirms this and matches the thrust lever position with the actual thrust. Also, the pilot needs to move the thrust levers into (idle or more) reverse after touchdown. Everything else is done by the autopilot. The plane also brakes automaically as long as the pilots have switched on the autobrake prior landing.
Thanks for taking the time to reply, it’s so nice of you and has made my understanding better. Please keep doing them, if you’re flying into Malpensa or Catania anytime soon it would be lovely to see as this is where my wife and brother in law are from. 😎👍
Great interesting Video! One question though: Why did the Co-Pilot start the Elapsed Time/Clock on his ND at 3:48 when receiving the Landing Clearance?
I do not know. These stop watches can be used by us pilots for whatever we deem necessary. And we do not need to tell the other pilot why we use it. Sometimes we use it for procedures, like timed visual approaches or holdings ... Then we have to use it in accordance to the procedure.
Yes, several times. But the only video here on the channel is a single camera video which was published a while ago. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/kdw5YKnpHj8/видео.html As soon as I am scheduled again to Arlanda, I will try to make a new multicamera video. It depends on my duty schedule and may take a while. Please stay tuned.
Yes. I also recorded a video, but I did not publish it due to limited visibility. I hope to come back soon in good visibility with the chance to record a nice video. Please stay tuned.
Good question. To do an CAT3 approach, the pilots must undergo special simulator training multiple times a year. Without the valid training it is not allowed to do such approaches. In addition, the airline must have the permission from the controlling aviation authority and the airplane must be in technically good order to do such approaches.
Good question! No, I do not get scared during harsh turbulence. I know that the airplane has no problem with turbulences. And we know how to handle it. Whenever possible, we avoid turbulence areas for the comfort of the passengers who fly with us.
Hello Cpt. A beautiful and very interesting approach (container ship) 👌🤓 Unfortunately, Copenhagen was under fog, it's a wonderful city. I liked how the autopilot (CAT3) performs the approach and landing. I have a question: Is automatic landing required in poor visibility? 🤔 Otherwise I can only say, another fantastic video! I'm looking forward to the next one! With this in mind, I wish you and your crew a nice week. ✈ Greetings from Styria 🤗 Werner
Hello Werner, as always, thanks a lot for watching and your friendly words! Yes, low visibility means autoland. We do not need to see something prior landing. But we need a minimum of 75 meters RVR to do an autoland. Reason is that we have to see a little bit to leave the runway and to taxi to the gate. We could do manual landings down to 550 meters RVR. Usually, we even do autolands earlier than 550 meters to avoid a go around if the weather gets worse during the approach. Greetings to Styria!
I find fascinating the way pilots in some cases must completely rely on their instruments, fighting against their instinct that would lead them to fly away. Just one question: at which speed can (or must) the tiller be manouvred?
Thanks for the feedback and your thoughts! I do not think that there is a limitation in regard of the tiller. As an easy rule, we use the rudder pedals during takeoff and landing and during taxiing, we use the rudder pedals or the tiller. The tiller is especially needed for sharp turns at low speed.

Also, you need to set flaps to 3 on the performance approach page to increase the approach speed in accordance.
What an amazing and unusual approach! Spectacular!
Thanks for watching and your great feedback! Have a nice day!
Sehr interessant auch mal eine Autolandung zu sehen.
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen! Automatische Landungen sind sehr selten. Hier auf dem Kanal gibt es noch ein weiteres Video von einer automatischen Landung bei Nacht in London (LHR). Vielleicht ist das ja auch interessant. Das ist der Link dazu: ruclips.net/video/lQSB3SQ_2F4/видео.html
Amazing technology
I agree!
AMAZING VIEW! Thanks a lot!
Thanks!
Good Morning And Thank You For the great video
Thanks for the good feedback! Have a nice weekend!
impressionant !!! merci
Thanks for watching!
As always thank you so much for uploading, always interesting and informative to watch so thank you for the privilege of seeing these videos and editing etc! I'm still hoping one day you'll show one of the ecam displays (? I can't remember if this is the correct term). Anyway best wishes from England!
Thank you very much for watching and your friendly words! I would love to show more displays but this is - due to the very limited possible camera locations - more difficuld than most people think. I hope to come up with something over the time. Thanks again and best wishes to England!
Awesome Video, even if this time the Airbus did the landing itself it shows the great teamwork and also the performance of the Plane..
Hi Marcus, thanks for watching and your kind feedback! Have a nice weekend!
Good landing! I landed in Copenhagen in flight simulator VATSIM ATC 2 days ago
This was real. No simulator! Yes, the plane did a good landing, I agree.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos yes hehehe
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I've landed without auto land in a very foggy weather in Copenhagen
amazing landing captin , more videos like this with more details ,,, how to prepare for full autoland MCDU +FCU ....breifing ...
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Next time, I hope to be able to record also the briefing and the rest of the preparation. Have a great day!
Great flight excellent landing 😊
Thanks! I will forward the good feedback about the automatic landing to the airplane.
That was amazing. I have always wanted to see auto land for real. Did it also auto flare because AP was still engaged. Thanks 👍👍
Thanks for watching and your great feedback! It does everything automatically, including the flare and the rollout on the runway. You can also see that it reduces the power automatically to idle in the flare. The FMA shows Power Idle before I reduced the thrust lever to idle. This only happens during an autoland approach. During a manual approach with autothrust on, the thrust is set for the approach speed until the thrust levers are moved to idle by the pilot during the flare.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for your feedback too. I guess also (in general) when there is fog the winds are generally light if not zero which is good for auto land
@@birdman4274 That is true for the airports which I usually fly to.
Hope one day I can be your FO, good landings captain
Thank you so much for the friendly words! Have a great day! All the best for your career as a pilot!
Very nice. In two weeks I will fly to CPH, but only for a change to Tallinn (all with SAS).
Thanks! I wish you a safe trip!
Beautiful approach :O
Thanks!
Very great video. Thanks.
Thanks for watching! Have a nice day!
Nice video would love to see a video from Gothenburg Landvetter.
Thanks for the good feedback and your request. The destinations in my schedule are always a surprise. When they schedule me to Gothenburg I try to record a video. But this may take a while. Please stay tuned.
very interesting, great video
Thanks for watching and the good feedback!
No visibility approach is always chilling, no matter how much you trust the automation.
For me in the cockpit the low visibility approach is always very interesting because the plane does the landing by itself. We just look and see and check if everything is right. Everything is redundant so that a failure of a system would be no problem. Worst case would be that we abort the approach and divert to another airport with better weather.
Remarkable approach - absolute trust in the systems! Q - is the autoland 100% dependent on the precise setting of the QNH?
Thank you very much for watching and for supporting the channel as a member! No, autoland is not dependent on the QNH. The airplane is following for the vertical path the glideslope signal from the airport and the landing flare is based on the signals of the radio altimeters of the airplane.
Thanks again for such a great video! I do have a question - as pilots do you get any kind of reports on your landings such as the landing rate fpm?
We do not get personal reports of our landings as long as everything is in limits. All the flight data are recorded and tracked without reference to a certain pilot for trend monitoring reasons. If we are interested, we can generate an electronic report after landing which shows the G-load of the last landing.
Puh war das in Kopenhagen neblig mit Autopilot landen Alle Achtung ⚠️ ich ziehe den Hut vor Ihnen Lieben Dank fürs mitnehmen bitte machen Sie so weiter
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und noch einen schönen Tag!
Wissen Sie schon wann Dresden kommt? Sie glauben gar nicht wie ich mich freuen würde! Viele Grüße von Moritz.
Danke fürs Anschauen! Dazu muss es erstmal im Dienstplan stehen. Das ist bisher noch nicht der Fall. Es kann also noch dauern. Ich bitte um Geduld.
Wie immer sehr spannendes Video! Wird bald mal wieder etwas aus Düsseldorf kommen?
Vielen lieben Dank fürs gute Feedback! Ja, Düsseldorf kommt bestimmt. Kann aber noch etwas dauern. Ich bitte um Geduld!
Amzaing as always!
Bur why do you have to wait 3 minutes to start taxiing on single engine?
Thanks for the good feedback! The 3 minutes are for the cooldown of the engine. In general, the engine manufacturer wants us to wait with the shutdown for 3 minutes after high thrust application. We could switch the engine off earlier, but on the long run, this would not be good for the longevity of the engine.
wow that was awesome 🤩
One question: You did (non standard) Flaps 3 & said "So we only need to be established at 800ft." Are the 800ft, when non standard Flaps 3, just a company procedure or a general one?
Good question. ATC required us to fly 160 knots or more up to 4 nautical miles final. In cases like this, the usual 1000 feet gate is reduced to 800 feet. This is a company regulation. Without this regulation we would be unable to follow such speed instructions because the plane needs some time (and altitude) to slow down.
Fogbow on the left at 7:00!
Thanks for sharing your observation! We do not see something like this very often.
Great video, we flew in and out of CPH last week from EDI. There seemed to be long ATC delays because of staff capacity problems. On the return leg we left the gate only to get parked at de-icing platform B for 35 minutes.
One question: With a Cat 3 landing, do ground operations have to reduce capacity significantly to keep ILS critical areas clear?
Thanks! I am sorry to hear about your delay. How much CAT 3 operations reduces the capacity is depending (among other things) on the layout of the airport. I think that Copenhagen only reduces the flow rate a little bit because it uses the other runway for takeoff and after landing, the high speed turnoffs will help to get the planes fast out of the ILS critical area.
Amazing views and video, out of pure ignorance when the aircraft says ‘retard’ is it something you as the pilot has to initiate or does it automatically flare?
What a fantastic video, they are so interesting every time.
Thank you!
Thanks for watching and your good feedback! During an autoland, the flare is done automatically by the airplane. During the flare, the airplane also automatically retards the thrust to idle. The movement of the thrust levers by the pilot to idle at 10 feet just confirms this and matches the thrust lever position with the actual thrust. Also, the pilot needs to move the thrust levers into (idle or more) reverse after touchdown. Everything else is done by the autopilot. The plane also brakes automaically as long as the pilots have switched on the autobrake prior landing.
Thanks for taking the time to reply, it’s so nice of you and has made my understanding better.
Please keep doing them, if you’re flying into Malpensa or Catania anytime soon it would be lovely to see as this is where my wife and brother in law are from. 😎👍
@@davidcooke6803 Thanks! I hope to be scheduled to Catania and / or Malpensa soon. It may take a while. Please stay tuned!
nice landing... and respect... you See nothing untill 100 meters... 😅
Thanks for watching and your good feedback!
Great interesting Video! One question though: Why did the Co-Pilot start the Elapsed Time/Clock on his ND at 3:48 when receiving the Landing Clearance?
I do not know. These stop watches can be used by us pilots for whatever we deem necessary. And we do not need to tell the other pilot why we use it. Sometimes we use it for procedures, like timed visual approaches or holdings ... Then we have to use it in accordance to the procedure.
wow
Thanks for watching! Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos you too!
Do you have the mPilot charts app at your company?
Yes.
have you ever flown to Stockholm Arlanda?
Yes, several times. But the only video here on the channel is a single camera video which was published a while ago. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/kdw5YKnpHj8/видео.html
As soon as I am scheduled again to Arlanda, I will try to make a new multicamera video. It depends on my duty schedule and may take a while. Please stay tuned.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for the reply, I am looking forward to it!
Hello! Why is there are no timely "flare" & "thr idle" call outs from the PM ?
He did call Flare. And why is there a THR IDLE command because thrust levers are manually moved when the RETARD call-out is made?
Due to technical reasons - as stated in the description and at the begining of the video - some audio missing in the video. I am sorry about that.
Have you ever landed in Tirana?
Yes. I also recorded a video, but I did not publish it due to limited visibility. I hope to come back soon in good visibility with the chance to record a nice video. Please stay tuned.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos amazing!Rreally looking forward to it.Was it a flight from STR?
@@christianfn9274 No. From Düsseldorf.
can all airbus pilots land with this visibility or do they need a clearance?
Good question. To do an CAT3 approach, the pilots must undergo special simulator training multiple times a year. Without the valid training it is not allowed to do such approaches. In addition, the airline must have the permission from the controlling aviation authority and the airplane must be in technically good order to do such approaches.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos got it, thanks captain )
What date was this
Thanks for the question. For privacy reasons, I do not release the exact date of the flights. I am very sorry and hope for your understanding.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos ahh ok i understad 👍
Copenhazen
Very hazy!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for your reply and your videos!
Do you ever get a little bit sacred during harsh turbulence
Good question! No, I do not get scared during harsh turbulence. I know that the airplane has no problem with turbulences. And we know how to handle it. Whenever possible, we avoid turbulence areas for the comfort of the passengers who fly with us.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos ok thanks 👍
Hello Cpt.
A beautiful and very interesting approach (container ship) 👌🤓
Unfortunately, Copenhagen was under fog, it's a wonderful city.
I liked how the autopilot (CAT3) performs the approach and landing.
I have a question:
Is automatic landing required in poor visibility? 🤔
Otherwise I can only say, another fantastic video!
I'm looking forward to the next one!
With this in mind, I wish you and your crew a nice week. ✈
Greetings from Styria 🤗
Werner
Hello Werner,
as always, thanks a lot for watching and your friendly words! Yes, low visibility means autoland. We do not need to see something prior landing. But we need a minimum of 75 meters RVR to do an autoland. Reason is that we have to see a little bit to leave the runway and to taxi to the gate. We could do manual landings down to 550 meters RVR. Usually, we even do autolands earlier than 550 meters to avoid a go around if the weather gets worse during the approach. Greetings to Styria!
I find fascinating the way pilots in some cases must completely rely on their instruments, fighting against their instinct that would lead them to fly away. Just one question: at which speed can (or must) the tiller be manouvred?
Thanks for the feedback and your thoughts! I do not think that there is a limitation in regard of the tiller. As an easy rule, we use the rudder pedals during takeoff and landing and during taxiing, we use the rudder pedals or the tiller. The tiller is especially needed for sharp turns at low speed.
