This video has a lot more success than the previous one I made ("From the Flight Deck" in March 2017), which took a lot more effort to edit. It turns out to be a viral video and with that come the armchair professionals. The number one comment I get says I used too much yoke and created what we call "pilot induced oscillations". Is it true then? Yes it is, at least to some extent. Can it be done better? I'm sure it can. I fly gliders and aerobatic airplanes, I would say I use smaller and smoother inputs on the flight controls than many of my colleagues, but in gusty conditions we need to use more agressive responses on the flight controls (see the autopilot doing a lot of rapid inputs during the first 3 seconds of the video). What this video doesn't show very well is the turbulence level, which was fairly high. If the autopilot needs these rapid yoke corrections, you bet we will need them too when we handfly the airplane. Ask any 737 pilot how smooth the conditions are when the yoke moves like that (while the autopilot is engaged), refering to those first 3 seconds of the video. As a Captain, my job is to ensure the safe operation of the airplane, keep it within parameters, fly a stabilised approach (which is defined by a set of criteria, none include how much yoke is used but instead, being at the right airspeed, glide slope / loc displacement kept to a minimum, rate of descent not exceeding 1000fpm, etc). As for the landing itself, the aim is not for a smooth landing (not to say that we have to smash the airplane on the ground), but instead to land within the touchdown zone and ideally on the big rectangular blocks on the runway (painted in white, see at 2:12 in the video), on the centreline, at the right speed, with wings level and if possible decrabed (nose pointing down the runway). Which is what I did here. Can it be done better? Once again, yes it can. But probably not by the professional FSX pilots who are eager to comment how they could have flown this approach "much better". Second most frequent comment says the wind is not 25 knots. This video is uploaded in 1440p, enough resolution to be able to see the wind arrow displayed on the ND, showing between 24 and 28 knots during the whole final approach. Fly safe everyone
That's right. This is excellent landing. Armchair pilots cannot even imagine feel of flight controls, feel of gusts, turbulence... They do not understand landing technique. They actually think they can land a 737. They are delusional.
Pay no attention to the internet warriors captain! You did a fantastic job! I was very impressed with your speed management; had it pegged at 150 just about the entire way down (in those conditions too). Greatly appreciate the videos as always, and I'm looking forward to flying the 737 one day! All the best, and safe skies!!
Good landing. I can see why "armchair" pilots say "over-controlling". ILS and autopilot system, and autopilots generally, are quite clever at reacting to trends rather than immediate and fine control. But as you get nearer the runway and go to manual, the corrections of buffeting and decrease/increase in speed or direction changes becomes more urgent to correct. It is debatable whether you need to be absolutely precisely in line every inch of the way on manual. In the long distant past I was mostly taught to react to the trend, not to every bump and minor deviation. But once, an instructor told me to go downwind at precisely 100 knots in turbulence with NO deviation at all. Of course this was impossible. After being berated about this I invited the examiner to demonstrate. He was far worse than I was! He shut up after that. The trend is in my view far more important than correcting for every tiny deviation. But there are a variety of methods and each to his own. Provided you arrive at the threshold pointing in the right direction, and safely, at the right speed, give or take a couple of knots, you are doing absolutely fine.
You have to understand that there is also some element of anticipation. I don't think hes fighting with them, I like to think of it more like guessing what the airplane is going to do next and anticipating. When I'm flying in windy conditions I do the same. Its part of feeling out what the airplane is doing and staying ahead of it. Obviously its a little different because in the C172 our final approach speed is (generally) 65kts.
@Tom A: You're a troll or incapable of understanding that vacuum mounted action camera doesn't require any attention. That's why it's called "action cam" - you do the action and do not worry about camera.
Being a fligh simulator pilot since 2009, I have no idea why people are commenting about the yoke movement. When taking a close look at the PFD, you can see how the strong crosswinds are constantly destabilizing the plane and it's unbelievable how well the pilot is executing to keep the plane inside the glideslope and the localizer. All those movements are just simply fighting the wind resulting in safe and smooth landing right on the touchdown zone.
I know!! I cant stand these arm chair pilots that think they know best. I dont care if you can fly the PMDG 737, the real thing is different. I actually find flying in real life to be easier than in the sim.
Anyone who flys "for real" knows the slower you fly the less responsive the controls are. Get off your pc and book yourself a flying lesson in unusual attitudes. You'll shit your pants, either put up or shut up
Michael Quinn 2 things: 1. LOL I have a friend named Michael Quinn!!! 2. Yeah, I experienced this a few weeks ago when my instructor let me fly the approach for the first time. I wasn't used to the delay/less responsive controls.
As a FSX Armchair commenter I saw absolutely nothing wrong with this landing - I would know, I am a pro at FSX. 405000 hours flight time clocked on a hot air balloon :)
I am sorry so many wanna be experts comment on here, trying to tell you how to fly. A real professional would see that your approach and landing were fantastic. Please continue uploading videos like this from this angle, I love to see the input on the yoke, makes you almost feel the aircraft. Again, beautiful performance on approach and on spot landing. Haters gonna hate, just ignore them :-) Greetings and many happy landings to come!
I fly smaller GA aircraft (definitely not a 737) for business and occasionally for hire. Gusty crosswinds demand attention and respect, lest you break the airplane and yourself. From one airmen to another, I compliment you on such a superb approach and landing. This video deserves to be viral!
Flight simulator is a game, this is the real deal - the Captain of this 737 showed exceptional skill, judgement and commitment when landing in those challenging conditions.
I'm not a pilot but I do love commercial airliners. I'm always amazed how many negative comments are posted. A few people are going to give credit to your flying ability but nobody ever thinks about pilot responsibly to the passengers. I give you pilots all the credit in the world for doing what you do up there. it's amazing to me just watching a video so I'd probably love being in the cockpit. very cool video sir.
I'm not a pilot nor am I an armchair pilot. All I can say is great job on the landing! Hats off to the men and women who wrestle with the yoke to carry hundreds to their destination safely.
As a citizen of that small Italian city i’ve been in many 737 landing here but I’ve never seen a landing like that! That is so smooth the camera barely moves! I guess it’s hard to land like that because the landing of the planes I was in were pretty annoyingly abrupt! Congratulations to this guy here, I know nothing about flying but good job!👏👏👏
A very well flown approach and a very nice video angle. I don't watch many cockpit videos (the flight deck is my other home), but this one popped up on my recommended list. The "PC Pilots" make themselves known by their comments regarding the amount of control inputs. To those of us who actually leave the ground, it is known that even a subtle change in aircraft trend (when flying in VMC) can be sensed before becoming apparent to the casual observer (a kinesthetic sense). A pilot who is comfortable with his/her machine will be able to sense these uncommanded changes to pitch and roll very quickly and will be able to make an appropriate control input to offset the developing trend. This becomes even more obvious as an aircraft's size ( mass) and resulting inertia increase. For proof, watch the video carefully and note how the smooth the aircraft's flight path and speed remain throughout the approach.
TheFlightPractitioner ok I'm no expert, I do fly rc planes line of sight and fpv. It seems there is alot on movement on the yoke to a small amount that the plane reacts. I refer to that as exponential. Is there any adjustment to make the control more or less sensitive? That way a more subtitle yoke correction would be required to keep the plane on the intended course. Or is this just on such a large scale that its just the way it is and it can't be made anymore responsive.
TheFlightPractitioner you don't actually leave the ground either? Dumbass. Wreck your RC plane and no one gives a shit. These guys wreck a plane and lives are lost and millions dollars are lost. Just shut up while you are ahead.
andreweatonae armchair verbal abuser would not say this to my face, I'm sure it would be a more diplomatic explanation if we were face to face. I hope you feel safe in your little internet bubble. Still didn't get an explanation so I guess you dont actually know the answer. Typical running the mouth with no backing.
I am no pilot. I am impressed with that stabilized approach with that yoke input. I noticed the sea waves how gusty it was in the first 30 seconds. By the way, great explanation to keep us informed. Big thumbs up
@@bennewton3560 1st of all we are talking about yoke/ss (side stick) and you jump in with that ? WELL GUESS WHAT IDIOT SOMEBODY PREFERS THE COMPUTERS. And its also not 100% true lmao
Nice work! Thank you for posting. Gusty crosswinds can be quite a bit of work, but you showed good control of the airplane, thinking ahead and anticipating throughout, letting no critical parameter get out of hand. Excellent! Also as you said, as a captain (and really any professional pilot), your most important job is to get the occupants and the machine there safely. Good job!
Cheers Captain for the wonderful video! To all those who call themselves FSX/Xplane Pilots, sorry to break it to you playing a PC game doesn't make you a pilot. It helps to understand but calling yourself a pilot is a real stretch. A gamer would be closer. Let the flame wars begin. Peace.
XPlane is closest to reality that anyone can get. But true, they aren't pilots, they are just simmers. P.S. Playing some sims can be more difficult than in real life
Doesn't Xplane prepare simulators for actual pilot training? I have maxium 10 hours in flight simulators, but i could say that one can learn the basics of landing and takeoff, easily. And if we talk of a program that prepares irl pilots and uses advanced realism with wind and such, it has to be atleast somewhat realistic. Does not make anyone a pilot, but has great capabilities to train one, and i think that is the point that these simulator gamers are making here. In theory, they could do this and that, and they know how to, but aren't still qualified and they know it.
Still one of the most impressive jobs ever!!!Fighterjet,airliner,helicopter,what ever....every good pilot is a hero in my eyes! unfortunately it’s to late for me,but I hope my son is going to be a pilot one day!:)
I wonder what crosses people's minds to make them hit the dislike button on videos like this. It's a very straight forward landing, very well done, and nothing is being said or done to make anybody have to dislike this. I just don't get some people.
RootedHat it’s best with 2 hands to quickly turn the wheel a lot in the event of an emergency, but you don’t really pull/roll the yoke aggressively and you NEED one other for the throttle.
The whole corrections are incredible and destroys my imagin of flying a plane. If you ever drive an old tractor, you know what it is seems to be like. I know we cant equate it. Respect. And very nice viewing.
Very nice. Good job hanging on to that flare!.....had a few hard landings early on during my PPL training from letting it go before the mains were down.
Were I a real-world pilot, I would be flattered by the sheer number of simulator armchair aviators that spend endless hours pretending to fly real aircraft, and who eagerly fill youtube pages with breathless "expert" opinions on flight deck protocol. That enormous interest in aviation, by novices and hobbyists alike, proves that flying continues to be regarded by many as the ultimate adventure. Accountants and divorce lawyers are probably green with envy, since there are not likely to be any accounting spreadsheet or courtroom jousting simulator fans in existence now, or any time in the future. In conclusion, the precision landing executed in this video clip was a masterwork of yoke, throttle and rudder finesse. You heard it here, form yet another expert. God bless America.
Was there last year, you are going to love it! Try to go to Lecce or Otranto in the south if you can! I really loved it, and I recommend trying Burrata 200%! Also be ready, when I took off from Paris it was about 15°C, and when I landed in Brindisi it was about 43°C! Anyway, have a nice trip! :)
Julius van Boxel Hi!! I’m from Lecce! Brindisi and Lecce are both beautiful places, but i suggest you to visit places like Otranto, Santa Maria di Leuca, Santa Cesarea terme , Porto Cesareo etc... Here the weather during summer is very hot!!! Ahahah!!! Anyway in Salento all the little things are beautiful!!! Have a nice days here in summer!!! Bye!!!
The co pilots hand was calm as hell... i wonder if in his head he was really screaming "you got this... you got this... you got this" haha! Sick video, just landed for my first time is a Cessna 172S the other day, crazy intense. Can't imagine putting this thing on the ground! We weren't all meant to be big boy pilots no matter what FSX tells us! Fly safe!
why that voice saying "approaching 31" comes out up in the air? i thought your would hear that only when you are approaching the rwy on the ground...thanks
Marco Brando They are most likely on the ILS approaching the runway. The aircraft already has all the information for landing so once they get close enough to the runway the aircraft says that.
Very nice landing, captain. This is my home airport and I have landed here (as a SLF ;-)) hundreds of times on several aircrafts (airbuses, glorious AZ maddogs, Embraers and now 737). As a passenger I believe Brindisi has an easy landing runway, but sometimes it could be very tricky because of the northern crosswind, and believe me, you can feel it if you are seated in the back of a 737 (MDs were better)! This was perfect, just perfect. In a future situations like this, I hope to fly with you, captain, even if I'll never know...
Can anyone tell me how responsive the yoke controls actually are?. In landings like this you see a lot of movement in the yoke from the captain but to my eye there doesn't seem to be an immediate, corresponding response from the aircraft!. Thanks :)
I think he meant how quickly the hydraulics in the control surfaces respond to movement of the yoke and pedals. There has to be some delay in there, compared to the steering wheel of a car.
useless movements, when you learn to pilot a glider, quickly the instructor shows you how they are unusefull. the respons time on the axes is approximativly 1s. the only consequence is to improve the draft.
I had a private pilot student do that with a yoke and I fixed it in two minutes. Btw, I have 22 years airline experience, 12-13000 hours, numerous type ratings. On occasion I fly with someone that jockeys the yoke like that, and it makes it rougher. Now if you are on an airplane like the MD88 which has control tabs, that's an entirely different story. My first reaction was, like many, wow, look at that yoke. :)
Apart from a smooth and safe flight the best part I find as a learning pilot is the landing. Sometimes the trickier conditions make for a more satisfying landing.

Perhaps the best description of a good landing under the circumstances. BRAVO
The camera Angle is the best! We can see everything! Excellent flying
You can clearly see a D-VOR passing under on the left corner at 0:20. I wonder how many people noticed it :P
What's a D-VOR?
@@Kristopia.23 Doppler VOR
I see it
The most important passenger seat in the entire aircraft😊thumbs up from pakistan for the skipper
I've never seen a plane landing smoother than this. Kudos captain
Beautiful landing !! Flare with Ailerons into wind , absolutely loved it !!
Love the 737 😀
Meanwhile, you have driving instructors who say "keep two hands on the wheels".
And then there's Flight Deck landing a 737 in crosswinds
RootedHat it’s best with 2 hands to quickly turn the wheel a lot in the event of an emergency, but you don’t really pull/roll the yoke aggressively and you NEED one other for the throttle.
The whole corrections are incredible and destroys my imagin of flying a plane.
If you ever drive an old tractor, you know what it is seems to be like. I know we cant equate it.
Respect. And very nice viewing.
Very nice. Good job hanging on to that flare!.....had a few hard landings early on during my PPL training from letting it go before the mains were down.
Хорошая посадка,пилоты на своем месте...
Тоже заметил,что на своём. А не в сартире))))
Made it look easy.

Kind of late here, left one word here, beautiful...
Finally in Italy!!!! ;-)
dove vivi? me, Bologna. che dici, passa x Bologna?...
...quando non sei sopra le nuvole, ovviamente. :P
Now I know it's
Not sure what
Pistoia
very good landing wind low
Were I a real-world pilot, I would be flattered by the sheer number of simulator armchair aviators that spend endless hours pretending to fly real aircraft, and who eagerly fill youtube pages with breathless "expert" opinions on flight deck protocol. That enormous interest in aviation, by novices and hobbyists alike, proves that flying continues to be regarded by many as the ultimate adventure. Accountants and divorce lawyers are probably green with envy, since there are not likely to be any accounting spreadsheet or courtroom jousting simulator fans in existence now, or any time in the future. In conclusion, the precision landing executed in this video clip was a masterwork of yoke, throttle and rudder finesse. You heard it here, form yet another expert. God bless America.
Knowing you're flying my plane would be most assuring. You stuck that landing with an exclamation point.
I land a 737 everyday on Extreme Landings
Lol
I think extreme landings does not have a 737
I love that game
UNKNOWN yes it does
TheVacinator Nah bro it does not do you know how a 737 looks like?
I am going there in the summer!
Was there last year, you are going to love it! Try to go to Lecce or Otranto in the south if you can! I really loved it, and I recommend trying Burrata 200%!
Also be ready, when I took off from Paris it was about 15°C, and when I landed in Brindisi it was about 43°C!
Anyway, have a nice trip! :)
Awesome, I can't wait to go there and thanks for the advice.
Julius van Boxel Hi!! I’m from Lecce! Brindisi and Lecce are both beautiful places, but i suggest you to visit places like Otranto, Santa Maria di Leuca, Santa Cesarea terme , Porto Cesareo etc... Here the weather during summer is very hot!!! Ahahah!!! Anyway in Salento all the little things are beautiful!!! Have a nice days here in summer!!! Bye!!!
stefanomaria taurino thanks! It looks amazing
.
I really can appreciate how you've mastered your craft.
The co pilots hand was calm as hell... i wonder if in his head he was really screaming "you got this... you got this... you got this" haha! Sick video, just landed for my first time is a Cessna 172S the other day, crazy intense. Can't imagine putting this thing on the ground! We weren't all meant to be big boy pilots no matter what FSX tells us! Fly safe!
Butter
25 - 27 knots from 2 oclock position. VREF 141 + 6 KNOTS
Is that at pay load capacity?
Amazing job! At my airfield, we have crosswind conditions 95% of the time. Ailerons into the winds!
Smooth and nicely done. Both by throttle inputs and yoke. Enjoyed the ride
why that voice saying "approaching 31" comes out up in the air? i thought your would hear that only when you are approaching the rwy on the ground...thanks
Marco Brando They are most likely on the ILS approaching the runway. The aircraft already has all the information for landing so once they get close enough to the runway the aircraft says that.
thanks man!
It's called RAAS (Runway Awareness and Advisory System)
Lorenzo Guidotti Yup you are correct. I was trying to think of the name!
Marco Brando lol
It should be beautiful to pilot a 737.
it is. ♥
All that input to the joystick means one thing.....the pilot is paying attention. Well done.
Very nice landing, captain.
This is my home airport and I have landed here (as a SLF ;-)) hundreds of times on several aircrafts (airbuses, glorious AZ maddogs, Embraers and now 737).
As a passenger I believe Brindisi has an easy landing runway, but sometimes it could be very tricky because of the northern crosswind, and believe me, you can feel it if you are seated in the back of a 737 (MDs were better)!
This was perfect, just perfect.
In a future situations like this, I hope to fly with you, captain, even if I'll never know...
Well done!
You need a lot of experience for that you slammed into the crosswind and got out like a boss one day I'll also be a pilot
Bonita aproximação e aterragem, muito bom!
Excellent control. Flying by your pants. Reminds me of my old days in a C150.
Ryanair be like: 100................50........20.........-1
Ryanair be like "sink rate! pull up!".
Can anyone tell me how responsive the yoke controls actually are?.
In landings like this you see a lot of movement in the yoke from the captain but to my eye there doesn't seem to be an immediate, corresponding response from the aircraft!.
Thanks :)
Njugglesvatn just like a car slower the speed more you have to turn
I think he meant how quickly the hydraulics in the control surfaces respond to movement of the yoke and pedals. There has to be some delay in there, compared to the steering wheel of a car.
The reason you don’t see the plane moving is because the pilot is countering the movements with the yoke inputs to keep the plane steady.
useless movements, when you learn to pilot a glider, quickly the instructor shows you how they are unusefull. the respons time on the axes is approximativly 1s. the only consequence is to improve the draft.
Fahad Nadir that is not true at all.. What a weird comparison
Smooth as butter, great job!
Excellent! I have total respect for the skill of aircraft pilots.
I had a private pilot student do that with a yoke and I fixed it in two minutes. Btw, I have 22 years airline experience, 12-13000 hours, numerous type ratings. On occasion I fly with someone that jockeys the yoke like that, and it makes it rougher. Now if you are on an airplane like the MD88 which has control tabs, that's an entirely different story. My first reaction was, like many, wow, look at that yoke. :)
MadDawgPilot that is a wild estimate... Between 12 and 13000 hours? Woah
Matthew pretty sure he means 12000 13000
2:11
Am i eating butter or what
All them adjustments. Incredible reactions and madskillz.
Apart from a smooth and safe flight the best part I find as a learning pilot is the landing. Sometimes the trickier conditions make for a more satisfying landing.
1:35 Final Approach
Did you apply lipstick to the landing gears? Because it kissed the runway ever so lightly
Wish I would have been on that ship watching. Great video!
That's one heck of a pilot...great video! Thanks for sharing.
I wonder if I've ever flown with you guys as pilots, I've flown a lot, what airline do you guys fly for?
Ryanair if I recall correctly
Tap, lufthansa ..
can anyone tell me what for Flight Simulator this is? it has ultra realistic graphics
Real-life Experience Sim)
Look at the way this pilot handled his aircraft,....it was nothing. Like a piece of cake,....a walk in the park.👏
The definition of a handful right there!! Amazing!
