Landing an airplane is all about braking. Going from 900 kilometers in the sky to standing still on the ground is not easy! Want to discover more about flying? Go to the Airbus Foundation Discovery Space: www.airbus.com...
So many mistakes though... - the pilot does not extend the flaps and slats as the descent starts. He/she waits until you're close to an airport to reduce fuel consumption and the noise foot print. Usually only in the last 20km or so when the airplane has already descended almost all the way are flaps extended. - airbrakes are rarely used during the descent and never for landing (unless you're flying a glider or touring motor glider), they would reduce the lift and would demand a higher approach speed. - Smooth airflow has nothing to do with the altitude the airplane flies at. Also the amount of speedbrake extended does not correlate to the altitude you are descending too, You don't need more airbrakes to descent further down. - Gear is usually extended as late as possible or practical to reduce fuel consumption and noise pollution near airports at least on a well planned and economic approach. - The thrust reversers are attached at the back of the engine and shift aft, not forward. - The airplane drawing only has a front row exit but 23 rows of windows and quite a large fuselage diameter. There is no way you'll be able to evacuate that aircraft in under 90 seconds :) I'd let that slip if it wasn't a video by Airbus.
imagine if your in a plane and the pilots passed out and your forced to land the plane but you type in google search to learn something before auto pilot kicks out and ended up on this video.
that's not how Ryanair lands. they just drop the damn plane like a brick or a helicopter from the sky and even seen to use reverse thrust without touching the ground... because they don't have enough Fuel and they do have inexperienced pilots. next time don't trust them with your life. it worths more than 50$ you saved on a ticket with them. 😤
