I don't know if anyone else appreciates the FAA's sense of humor when naming RNAV points. The JAWBN point is "Jawbone" and the next reference point on the approach is DIGGN or "diggin'". Probably references to archeological findings.
Great Performance by pilots , intensive focus on the approach by steping ahead the normal procedure and listening very carefully to Seattle ATC Controllers . I hope to fly LH someday !!!
I love these videos, with the ATC an approach radio! Please post more! These 2 guys are hilarious to listen to. I often wondered what pilots talk about.
i know im asking the wrong place but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.
@Kyng Ahmed I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm trying it out now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Commentary note: Unless they visited the Museum of Flight restoration center at Everett Pain Field They did not see the museum of flight, which is at King County International Field (Boeing field). Most likely went to the future of flight museum. I loved the video, wish I could see more cockpit landings at SEA. :)
its usually not that crowded, they edit out the boring bits where your just flying along the vector to shorten the video - so it seems like they are always having to do something, but keep in mind some approaches are busier than others
AmericanPride1234 I'm surprised United would close up shop in Seattle, oh and wasn't American Pride the livery used in the Steven King movie "Langoliers" on thee L-1011..?
Legendary German professionalism! It's interesting how they alternate between Deutsche & English in their back-and-forth banter, sometimes in mid-sentence---which presents a real syntax problem...
4:31 reduce speed "to" 190 . Sounded like reduce speed "2"190. Same happened in some aircraft when the controller said reduce altitude "to" ..... but it sounded like reduce altitude "2".... and the pilots set that altitude and the plane came too low and they crashed unfortunately due to terrain and very foggy conditions. Thats why the F/O said thats exactly how you must not say it
+yoyoyoyoshua To be fair, in the original German they're just saying they're going to visit a museum at Paine, not that it's the Museum of Flight. So maybe they were talking about the Future of Flight Aviation Center & Boeing Tour, which is at Paine.
Are the communications between pilots and the ATCs this crowded? Or is it the video editing? It looks like the ATC is asking them to change speed and altitude every next second.
AWESOME!!! Gracia mille , Danke, guten tag, vegates!!! I am American of Italian, German Blood!! SEATTLE IS MY FAVORITE AMERICAN CITY,,,BEEN THERE 6 TIMES,,,,,,,I miss it,must go back soon! My best friend is from "Kindenheim, which is Southwest of Frankfurt, just West of "Worms"!! I am taking this plane to Italy in Sept. 11,2013. This is how I found video!! GREAT JOB,,,BLESS ALL OF YOU. Wonderful video and pilots!! Mi chiamo Roberto Mazur,,,,,,,,ciao!
Do you gentlemen have other videos like this? They are wonderful to watch. Now, here I go in German: Iche Liebe Deutche Luft....Hope I got that one right..
Anyone knows when the video was made? They're landing on 07L which is today 07C. Also there is no EFB display unit next to the window. -They used D-AIKG on the return leg which was built in 2004. So I guess something between 2004 and 2006. Also funny how pilots eye TV is always cheating with the outside shots. First they've shown the approach on todays 25C and after that it was an A321.
I think I am still over-jet lagged from my Lufthansa flight yesterday from Berlin, because it sure looked to me that in the second video, as in 16:20, the flaps and wing are on the wrong side of the plane, given the direction the plane is heading in the video. ??? Or do the flaps extend from the front as well?
Those are the trim wheels. They provide fine adjustment to aircraft pitch. They operate automatically on Airbus planes (unless the flight is fully manual, i.e. in "direct law").
In ICAO standard phraseology it is prohibited to use the word "to" in order to prevent such misunderstandings from happening. In addition, if an airport is renewing is taxiways designators or building new taxiways they are not allowed to name them e.g. Alpha 2 (two) beacause of the number two in it and the danger to misunderstand two and to. The correct phrasing of the instruction given to the pilots would be: "DLH490 heavy, reduce speed one niner zero knots." I think that FAA procedures are different in some cases compared to ICAO procedures and everytime I hear an ATC controller in the US it is spoken like the controller in the video did.
He wanted to disconnect the autothrottle and this happens by pulling thrust levers to idle. In the moment he hit the idle detent you heer the beep indicating that the athr system got disenganged.
No it is a A330-300 and it has 4 wheels on each side.Look at the scale of the plane,the windows compared to the size and the staurs,how tall it is.An A 330 has a max take off weight of 242 tons(both types except freight) and a A 321 has 93,5 tons.@@Markus22MUC
the co-pilot did not understand what the flight control operator said which was, Reduce speed to 190, the co-pilot did´t understand it because she was talking really fast, so the pilot repeated what she said.
