@@ccubsfan94 I don't fly the Embraer, but I find it fascinating how its pilots position their leg perfectly on the footrest, so they just barely don't get hit by the yoke
@@bahenbihen I have to be all the way back and seat reclined with a few grunts to get my feet up there usually. The yoke works great but depending on wind and how giddy the yoke moves around 200ft I pull my legs in close. Otherwise you get a good whack.
Terrific video! As I watched I felt as if I was almost there throughout the landing. All too often people tend to zoom in and out and focus on individual items rather than present the big picture. Nice work!
mja12685 - which headset do you have? I have the A20 and occasionally I have mic issues with it in the 175. I was thinking of switching to the XLR connector.
mja12685 - A couple captains I’ve flown with have the clarity headsets and really like them. Why do you fly manual speeds all the way to the ground? Don’t you use FMS speeds by the final approach fix?
@@rayanaltowayan9558Actual limits are 400ft on takeoff, 50ft on an ILS, MDA for other approaches and 400ft on a visual. Most guys hang on to about 3k ft, sometimes 10 and occasionally up to the 20k ft but below rvsm. Just depends on the person and the workload. For landing, if visual most will have it off just after the final approach fix so about 2500 ft. We usually let the plane help us in actual imc on the instrument approaches unless the approach calls for no autopilot, which is why its good to practice. Most guys on an ils click off about 200 ft.
CloudStreets in the E175 as you approach the terminal area the FMS will automatically start slowing the plane down. This could get you into trouble if ATC needs you at a certain speed so most pilots will switch to manual speeds and just dial in the speed they need.
David Hood - the 175 will automatically slow to 250kts below 10,000, but it won’t go slower than that until you activate approach speeds by deploying flaps or by selecting “activate approach speeds” on the FMS. Then it will bug what ever speeds you have programmed based on your flap settings. This is a Republic airplane. Apparently they don’t use magenta approach speeds as policy. So, that’s why he’s on manual speeds. Seems like a good way to overspeed the flaps, but whatever you get used to I guess.
Autobrake is set as part of the descent checklist depending on runway length and condition. It's confirmed set on the approach checklist. It needs to be set to "Something," not "off."
Andrew Burke Actually, it doesn’t. We have discretion as per our SOP. We are just not allowed to set it to a position where there is no landing distance information returned by ACARS. SOP 10.6.3.2
He would be fired if the company found out. It's against company policy. There is no gray area or room for discussion on this topic. You think you're cute or you proved something since you saw someone break the rules. You did not.
quinnjim I agree with you that that is the policy for every airline (and the FAA), I was just disagreeing with your previous statement, because I have already seen too much irrefutable evidence to the contrary.
quinnjim ok... but how come I see more films from a 777 jump seats rather than seeing them from ERJ 145's don't try to bash regional airlines like that that's just right especially seeing that you could be a pilot yourself
