    I do miss landing here, i remember when there was no rnp ar approach and was fully visual using ground reference points, the dam, the cemetery, the highway, the price smart on final, the good ole days 😂 but the new palmerola MHPR was definitely a must for safety purposes.

    He did that approach like a cool cucumber.

    Nice one 737NG Driver!

    It's been a while since I flown this approach. The last time it was in the 737 in P3D. Good fun.

      It's certainly worth doing it again!

    Landed here the other day in the Longitude, it was super fun, but damn was I scrapping the trees right on final though, god damn it was close.

    This is nice! Indeed not used to flying in the whole of South America, this is stimulating to fly somewhere out of the comfort zone

      @@A330Driver I have a challenging approach request - SBRJ RNAV 02R - stunning approach into downtown Rio De Janeiro, right through the terrain, then the buildings, then hard turn on short final!

    I wonder if the PMDG 737 would be able follow the path on this approach just as well?

      Once the database supports RF Legs I'm sure it would be.

    Great video! I have a random question, do your ´´Airline ´´ allow the Bose QC 35 Uflymike headset modification? Thank you!

    I wish they could figure out how to get trees not to spawn in the approach path.

    • @A330Driver
      @A330Driver  2 года назад

      yeah, that was the main reason to make me fly this in the Longitude, any larger airplane was hitting the trees when I was on the PAPI.

    I don't know how can you fly with such a low camera setting 😂 You can barely see the runway!

    OR: How late can the autopilot turn final? As you said in the description, we only saw how well the autopilot could guide you in considering you disconnected at 350' and kept the AT engaged through touchdown. Boomer pilots all have a subtle grin on our faces when we remember flying 757s into TGU on the VOR Rwy 02 approach that allowed us to circle and enter the downwind. And that was before they cut half the mountainside down in order to add 300m to the length of the threshold. Coupled glide slope? Nah...they had a plywood alignment of elements system for a VASI.

      It is the pilot monitoring the AP though and standing ready to disconnect if something goes wrong. In a single Pilot environment and an approach like this I do deem it appropriate to us the AP to the end. Also it serves as a great demo how well modern APs can work.
