BAD WEATHER Landing in St John's | AIR CANADA🇨🇦 Airbus A319 

😄

Went to St john's many years ago in a Britania from RAF transport command. Although St john's was in Canada we were still nearer to UK than our final destination in Canada.

A senior Captain that's personable. Love it!

I've had the opportunity to fly with this gentleman on the 787, he's an absolutely wonderful human!

In any job always understand KISS AND POO (keep it simple stupid's and principal of operation) Good job Sir

That's probably autoland

He's great!

Hello Sir, thanks for watching, commenting and enjoying your ex-colleagues at work.

As a local - the weather can indeed be a bit hellish up here @ YYT (I live about a click away and only a couple hundred feet less in elevation)

Large respect for crew!

He’s excellent. There’s a video with him on a oceanic crossing where he explains so much about that flight.

Glad you enjoy our videos, thank you

Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you Wendy

Glad you enjoyed it

Oh very interesting to learn that. Thank uou

Wrong province bud..

Thanks Betsy. Glad you enjoyed it. Hope your weather is better this weekend 😊

@@justplanes ....Thanks for your reactionJP;)) and.....a little sun this Sunday!! Have a great week.....!! X Betsy......

@Antony Owino St. John's is in Canada :)

Good place to learn to fly I guess

NFL

@@justplanes YYT would be an excellent place to start. Visual and non-visual, land and sea. Wind and crosswinds. You have it all in Newfoundland

@Antony Owino Canada. 🇨🇦🇨🇦

Thank you James

Thank you for that. Sounds very cool and glad you enjoyed the video as well.

@@justplanes you’re welcome, and thank you!

ever seen the snow drifts driving near Summerside ---drifts 3 ft high on the ;;GAZA STRIP''

@@alexshatzko1381 oh yes, and I was on the road delivering fuel here in the winter of 2015 when he had record breaking snow fall amounts that winter… it was crazy.

👍

I thought I was the only one that noticed that...

Thanks

Yes totally!

@Lance Counihan thanks so much for your reply. I was rather startled to hear that in the video, but maybe I just misunderstood what he was saying.

Thank you

GUessing due to the conditions they were using max manual, may well have been beyond what even medium could do and max is only used on T/O

The best weather is usually around the end of June to mid-July. If you want to rent a car make your reservation months in advance on a card that the rental companies respect.

You can make that trip in two days but it would be exhausting and you'd need to time the ferry perfectly. Plan for four days. Port aux Basques to St John's is a very hard drive for one day. The ferry is six hours in good weather and often longer. From upstate NY you might consider I-90 to I-95 to New Brunswick for the cheaper gas and possibly shorter. With the fifth wheel we'd cross the Island in three or four days and probably spend a month on the road to get to Ottawa.

@@jwaustinmunguy it’s def on my bucket list John but I do realize it would be a very tough drive but the scenery I’m sure is fantastic especially in the late spring or fall with the changing of colors. Ideally I want to check out Montreal and Quebec City first which are both on the way so I would def make a couple weeks vacation or more out of it especially with driving instead of flying. We have good flights to Toronto from here but to Quebec City and St. John’s it is extremely expensive like the cost of a cross country trip or more which is weird but they don’t have any good flight paths from upstate to those places for some reason even tho they are way closer than the layovers you need to take first

St. John's not St. John

😊🌧

Great

👍

Glad you enjoyed it David

👍

Interesting. Is that what it is.

Ya the old 300 and 310 have that demonic sounding GPWS but I have never ever heard it on a 320 series

Yes for sure

👍

Seems to have a lot of poor weather there...

😊 yes indeed. Nice guy too!

@@justplanes as most of us Atlantic Canadians are!

Hahaha I have no doubt you are 😊👍

Interesting. That’s cool Gary

Yes. The one on the right was giving the one on the left his check ride and ETOPS qualification.

Maybe an older version.

Might be an older version

@@justplanes Ahaa...could be

Glad you enjoyed it Dave, thanks

👍

Yes exactly Michael. Check ride as well as ETOPS qualification.

Glad you enjoyed it Chris. Not sure

Nope no autobrakes they discussed during briefing that they will be doing manual brake.

A319

👍

I think this was sometime around 2010. EFBs didn’t show up until sometime after 2014 or 2015.

👍👍

That is Canada for you in general. Not just airlines. You have these HUGE monopolies everywhere, and so they have no competition (like in the United States). So they can “give the shaft” to the customer with no consequences whatsoever!

2 Captains on this flight for check ride.

ya that's somehow on every plane... they sure sound like that

Actress?

I think about ten years old

👍
