Have you ever wondered about how Pilots find their way down to the runway in thick fog?
Can an aircraft actually land by itself and if that is the case, why don't the pilots always auto-Land the aircraft.
In this episode I will be telling you all about the fascinating world of Cat2 and Cat3 approaches. I will tell you how an ILS works and how the pilots procedures work during this highly sophisticated manoeuvre.

Gosh, watching your channel made me look back on one of the flights I was on, and a cold chill runs up my spine. We were landing in Warsaw Modlin about a decade ago, when it was still a tiny post-military airport. It was winter, it was snowing and we were in the cloud for an awfully long time. The plane started to come down for landing and we were still in the cloud - or so I thought. I was sitting next to the window, looking out, so I saw perfectly that when the fog finally cleared, we weren't over the landing stripe. We were about 30 metres over a residential area. I could see the branches on the trees and people below, and the plane suddenly lurched up and climbed back. The pilot, leter, made an announcement that he'd missed the airport due to the fog. Back then it was an exciting heh moment. Now I am thinking how close we were to being on a show like this=_=

I was in one of these Cat III landing last week. It was freaky. I was on a 737-800 landing in Indy International. The visibility was two feet (I am sure it was more, but that's what it looked like) I could barely see the engine under the wing and I was as close as one can get to it. All the sudden the aircraft begins to flare and the thump of the wheels said we had hit pavement, but with no visual of the ground to provide prospective and scale, it felt like we were plowing into a mountain. Once we came to a stop the whole cabin erupted in cheers and people were visibly relieved, as well as I. Intense

Indy has the highest level lighting system. It's got all the bells and whistles. What you see out the side window is not what the pilots see. See my post above. The -800 might have CAT II or III approved. I don't know. What airline was it? I live and fly out of Indy and we did have some heavy fog several weeks ago.
@petersteitz200
@petersteitz200 5 лет назад
I don't know of any commercial aircraft certified for synthetic vision. HUD is approved on certain aircraft and the pilots need special training. The approach charts specify aircrew certification to use that approach.

I was the passenger of an aircraft trying to land in dense fog (about 15 years ago) at Halifax International Airport. I had a window seat and it looked like we were only 10 feet above ground (about to touch down) but suddenly in the last minute, the aircraft unexpectedly made a quick ascent again, and we were directed (by ATC) to Maine, USA! Thankfully the pilot got us safely to Maine and eventually I got home safely. But he told us afterward that he found out in the last minute that we were overshooting the runway (due to poor visibility) so that made them not land at that moment but go up again. He said ATC told him "do not try that again, it is too risky". The airport at that time was under construction and some of the lights were not in operation. With the lights it could have no doubt been possible to do a fog landing that day. Anyway I was grateful that all was well in the end!

I remember once, years ago, we were returning from Las Vegas to MSP, Minneapolis flying in an L-1011 Tristar. Coming into Minneapolis, it was winter and there was a very low cloud ceiling and a snowstorm. Looking out the windows in the cabin we could only see clouds. I could feel the aircraft descending, I thought we were going to land, then it would shudder a bit and level off. I really wasn’t sure at times if we had touched the runway in a complete fog or if we were just going around again. This happened several times. When we finally did land, we did break through the clouds very low and made a great landing. I think everyone was relieved at that point as it seemed to take forever. This was possibly the most frightening landing I’ve been through at my home airport. MSP does often have problems in the winter with snow, ice, and low clouds.

I find your videos amazing and incredibly insightful! I've always had a fascination with flying, though I never pursued it. Last night I was on a flight that landed in pretty dense fog after two go-arounds. It wasn't all that unpleasant to me, though several passengers near me were clearly nervous and unsettled, probably due to how low we were and the ground lights being barely visible from the windows (we were pretty low from what I can tell when he revved the engines and started climbing again suddenly). When I got home I was curious about the technology/procedures that allow you all to land these things in those conditions and ended up finding your video on the go-around procedure, I really enjoyed it and learned quite a bit from that single video. Amazing stuff and technology is incredible to me (I'm a software analyst and tester so I kind of become a total nerd with these things). I ended up watching your channel for about 2 hours and here I am again the day after watching more! You are a very, very good communicator and are clearly an expert in your profession. Looking forward to watching more and more.

This makes me think of a flight from California to Boston (for what it's worth in relation to this topic of discussion), that when we got to Boston we had to circle quite a while. As the visability had to be a 0 visability, remembering how mega low it was. As I was sitting near the window watching out the window, and you could see nothing, and then all of sudden their is the runway with the Jet touching down right then. I was pretty impressed with the Pilots, Tower People, Technology, Jet, what was actually done, etc.!

Flew in to Duluth Minnesota from Minneapolis early October. The pilot said we were at the very edge of regulations stating that we could not even leave the airport in Minneapolis. Let alone, attempt a landing in Duluth because of the dense fog which had accumulated over the city. The dewpoint was 50°F and so was the temperature. The fog was certainly quite thick. As we came in for a landing, I remember seeing halos of light where the runway lights would have been and it was quite distorted. The initial touchdown was a little harder than normal and I think we shook something loose in the landing gear or breaks. When we went to break, there was a loud grinding noise before taxiing. Kind of fun experience to do at 11 o’clock at night.

You do a great job explaining to non instrument rated aviators. Back in the 60's in the Air Force, we had the GCA approach where a ground controller gave us very detailed instructions on the approach. Minimums were 1/4SM. Then came the ILS with minimums of 200' 1/2SM. For a time, we had both. The 5 seconds prior to either continuing or going missed is a learned skill. It is real time. There is no way to slow down what is about to happen. The CFR's (USA) clearly state what is necessary to continue. You need to clearly identify the approach lights or the red sidebar lights, the threshold, RAILS and or VASI/PAPI and then the threshold. In commercial aviation, there is no more 200'. It is just an altitude where you make the decision. All you need is the required visibility and today, it is usually RVR. When complying with the CFR's, you can descend another 100' after reaching the missed approach altitude if the above can be identified. In today's major airports you will also have high intensity runway lights, touchdown zone lights and centerline lights. Air carriers that have CAT II, III training are in their own world.

The whole female side of my next door neighbor's family, mother, wife & daughter, was wiped out in an attempted mountaintop landing in fog at Charleston WV, August 10, 1968, Piedmont flight 230. Lifting fog covered only the lower end of the runway. The Fairchild 227 commuter from Louisville via Cincinnati hit just short of the mountaintop at 8:58 AM and bounced onto the runway or next to it in flames. Initially there were 6 survivors of 37 on board but 4 died in the hospital within 2 days. 2 of 32 passengers received only minor scratches as they were thrown clear of the burning fuselage. Contributing was that the instrument approach beacon was out for repairs.

Reminds me of my experience going on vacation. I cant remember if it was Caribbean airline or dynamic airline. It was flt from jfk to geo on feb 20 2015. Pilot attempted around 5x times to land and aborted because of the fog. It was torture for me because of all of these air disaster videos I watched. My knees were trembling and the elderly lady next to me knees started trembling too. Imagine not being able to see whats going on in front, you can see through the window that ground is getting closer and closer as we came in for a landing and then you hear the engine spooling back up. I am thinking are the engines going to build up full power fast enough. This is happening over and over and over. I was hoping the pilot would stop attempting to land and go to the alternate airport before the plane ran out of fuel. His final attempt to land at GEO, the pilot announced that the sun has finally did its job and got rid of the fog. Pilot attempted to land again and as usual the engine started spooling back up. This time I felt the plane in the up angle much longer than before and I was happy because I knew the pilot was going higher because he was leaving the area. The pilot came on the pa and announced we were going to our alternate airport which was Trinidad. It seem like I was the only passenger that was happy with that announcement. Passengers were complaining how their plans got ruined, they rides are waiting for them, they have funeral to go to etc. The plane landed in Trinidad and I was the only one clapping on touch down. I turn to the flt attendant when I was getting off the plane and I told her that I was glad we came to the alternate. She agreed and said what is wrong with these people ( which simply mean why were they upset because we had to go to our alternate in a emergency situation)

The reason why this is the case is exactly the same reason that primary radar works, pretty much any dielectric boundary (that is to say anywhere mediums with different dielectric constants meet) will result in some radio waves being reflected. The strength of the reflection depends on many factors like the frequency, the thickness of each medium, the difference in dielectric constant between each medium etc. This is, however, a problem for anything that relies on precise timing, phase measurement or similar to operate as it results in multipath echos ie the receiver will be bombarded with many copies of the signal each displaced in time and phase from the true signal. You can even experiment with this somewhat yourself gps receivers will tend to be more accurate in say the middle of a clear open field than in the middle of an urban area particularly one with lots of tall steel-framed buildings etc and multipath echos are part of the reason as your GPS receiver relies on precisely timing multiple radio signals with sub-nanosecond precision so having the strongest copy of the signal randomly change from the true (direct signal) to the reflection off some random building. This and the fact the GPS signals are broadcast by satellites is why tall and steel framed buildings are worse for accuracy it is relatively easy to pick out the true signal if you have a clear line of sight to the transmitter. In that case, it is highly unlikely the true signal as any reflection will generally be much weaker as it will only have been attenuated by atmospheric scattering (baring some form of external rf interference, a jammer for example). The problems arise when the true signal is itself attenuated by encountering other mediums too then the strongest signal may well be a reflection particularly if the reflecting object is large, close to either the transmitter or receiver or worse both, and a good electrical conductor the more likely this is also. For those reasons aircraft which are covered in metallic surfaces and in the case of commercial aircraft are generally rather large would be particularly problematic. They would certainly not be something you would want to have positioned close to either the transmitting antenna or receiving antenna. Thus the end of the runway would be the worst possible place to have them as the ILS transmitting antennas must by necessity be positioned close to the end of the runway. Worse still the interference they create would actually grow exponentially worse the closer the landing aircraft came to the interfering aircraft. It goes without saying that for an ILS this is the exact opposite of what the system needs to achieve, the greatest position is required when the aircraft is closest to the runway, which is precisely when aircraft holding to depart on the taxiway at the departure end of the runway would reflect the strongest interfering signal. Worse it is also the time when the aircraft holding at the hold line in the #1 position is most likely to block the line of sight between the ILS and the receiver as it's angular size is at it's largest and thus so is the obscured area of the field of view. This would create the ideal conditions for a reflection to overpower the true signal and trick the ILS on the aircraft into locking on to the wrong signal and thus miscalculating its position at the most critical moment whether a reflection from another part of the aircraft blocking the main signal or even more likely a second aircraft holding behind that one (as more of that aircraft that the antenna can see is exposed to the receiver).

mentour, now I can see why a pilot prefers to land without the auto-land if it's not needed, so many different parameters involved that it's actually safer to have the pilot himself land the plane if conditions allow it. thanks again mentour.

Very informative, once again you nailed it! In the mid 90's I flew a 37 Jurassic simulator, shooting manual approach and landing scenarios at a HUD developer's facility using their new state of the art HUD. Head-up displays were supposed to be the hot ticket for the future. What happened? Were they simply deemed redundant to the already widely used auto land systems? I was surprised at how simple it made the approach and landing, and I nailed it every time, even landing in 0-0 and below minimum RVR.

Of course aircrafts can land on its own, I know there was some Cessna pilot who suffered CO poisoning and fell asleep/passed out and when he run out of the fuel the plane landed rather neatly on some field or pasture because the autopilot could not keep the altitude any longer but it kept the speed. He was awoken by someone trying to get inside to check if he was alright.
