AMAZING FLIGHT CONTROLS AT WORK 💪🏻

  • We’ve talked about how the Flight Control Surfaces all play their part on approach, especially in gusty conditions just like this!
    NOTE: The camera stabiliser makes this approach/landing look a lot smoother but trust me, this was a bumpy approach and hard landing!
    Check-out how all the Flight Control Surfaces work together: Speed brakes and both High and Low speed Ailerons. On approach the Speed Brakes (the smaller ‘boards’ along the wing) help with controlling speed and stabilise the wing. This is SO evident in the video, almost to the point that it looks ramped-up!
    Once the wheels are on the Ground, the Spoilers (armed by the Pilots and activated by WOW sensors) are then fully deployed and become Ground (or Dump) Spoilers, creating huge amounts of Aero Breaking and bringing this Big Jet to a stop 🛑
    This is such a cool example of all those things at work 💪🏻
    Filmed by GP on American 137

    Hi Jerry & Gilly. I landed in Honolulu back in 1978, seated in the cockpit of a Pacific Western Airlines 707 from Vancouver BC. I sat behind the Captain - British with huge handlebar moustache. Told me he flew Spitfires during WW2. We are chatting away until he suddenly said "Sir, think you'd better return to your seat now as I can see the runway landing lights". Those were the days when passengers were welcome in the cockpit. After we landed, there were girls waiting to place lei's around our neck & take us to a champagne breakfast 🍳🍾🍷
    Hope you both have a great time in Honolulu 😊
