Absolutely another fabulous beautiful uploading.. Ur the best my friend .. keep rocking and we all always behind your back to support you.. TQSM from Mtl Cdn..
At the time of this flight, I belie it was pretty much brand new. I'd have to go back and look to be sure, but all A220's are still relatively new. Thanks for watching my friend!
I dislike flying but I always loved landing at MCI probably because it means I'm almost home lol -- great landing video! the area looks so much better in spring/summer when it's all green and not winter brown.
Great video and footage Skylite👌. Liked and enjoyed. Let me ask you something. Everytime when you fly when climbing and descending does your ears pop do to the air pressure?
Thanks my friend. And yeah, they do. But, over the years I've gotten better at keeping up with it. And what I mean by that is, I'm pretty good at equalizing the pressure frequently to keep it from getting to the point where it hurts or it's a lot all at once. Yawning, chewing gum, and not flying with an ear infection always help haha.
First and great fly! Have you heard there is possible railroad strike in December after the union rejected the deal which most likely to affect not just Amtrak but also on commuter train as well?
A lot of work, over 7 years of building this channel up haha. So, everything you see on here I pay for out of my pocket. I started this channel for fun and for years I used my own disposable income to fly/film everything you saw on here. Recently. Like, in the last year or so, the channel has started to generate enough income from the ad revenues that it basically pays for itself. So, the answer to your question is that I spent a lot of my own disposable income, from my regular job, to fly and build the channel up. And now, I still use my own money, but most of my flights are covered by the ad revenues.
It's and overhaul facility. Aircraft being converted from passenger to cargo configuration, or heavy maintenance. I believe some airlines also used their ramp area to store planes during Covid.
It was originally built as a TWA maintenance based, and later American Airlines also operated out of it. Now though it's other companies that occupy the space, including the overhaul company. I don't know the name of the company off the top of my head.
Split-flap failures are really, REALLY uncommon. Even with a split flap failure, you have a 50% of the roll not being affected, and aircraft today are prepared for if, by the SLIGHTEST chance, that it happens (it’s also partially why flaps are extended incrementally). Aircraft will deploy flaps at low AGL altitudes, like 500-1000 ft, which tells you that even with a failure, it is not something unmanageable in any way.
Not really. I've been on plenty of flights where the slats and flaps have been extended in a turn. As Firekirby said, it's a problem, but not something that would definitely cause a major issue. Even if one side failed while level, you'd still have uneven lift generation, but it's nothing that some power and control surface input couldn't solve. Thanks for watching man!
