Wow, weer een mooie film, bedankt dat je dat met ons deelt, Sured! Wow, great video! Probably the best cockpit view video's are from your hand! thx, Nicole (Everything)
I envy you, SuredT. :) Sincerely. Since the earliest childhood I saw myself a pilot, but my eyesight got poor, and in my the then country - xUSSR - you got to be a perfectly healthy robot to crew an airplane. Not like in the Western world where I can see every other Boeing pilot wearing glasses. Thank you, I travel with you all over the world. Now Almaty 05, now - Amsterdam 06. Great.
Wicked amazing. Your videos are truly one of a kind! Especially since you take the time to mount the camera so it's not shaking all over! I bet GoPro would be willing to give you one of their HD mini cams if you put their logo at the end or something. And they would be easily mountable while able to shoot in 1080! Just a thought.
this great to see it one time from the other side. normaly i drive there on the A4 to Amsterdam(exit Alsmeer just before the runway) thanks for uploading 5 stars
@sam9524 Yes it is. An ILS approach isn't the same thing as an automated landing. ILS is a NAV-aid to land the aircraft which can be connected to the autopilot/flight directors for an autoland. However you can also tune the nav radios for an ILS approach and fly the airplane manually. (you hand-fly the plane, but you get localizer and glideslope information from the Instrument Landing System.)
Another great video from you. Would it be possible in your next video to include the taxi to the gate? If the video gets too long you can just play it with 2x or 4x speed.
@Writahman. In the cockpit an electric motor operates, at main gear touchdown, automatically a handle which operates the spoilers on the wings and that's the noise you hear.
@FF35Pilot. During cruise Mach .85. During approach depends on the weight of the aircraft. At max ldg weight (285 tons) it is about 155 kts with flaps 30.
KLM is IMO the best european Airline. Lufthansa has exactly the same service, but they cost more. And the best thing to hear on a flight is: "Flight attendants, take yourrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr seats!"
@beatlesvickz Thrust reversal, also called reverse thrust, is the temporary diversion of an aircraft engine's exhaust or changing of propeller pitch so that the thrust produced is directed forward, rather than aft. This acts against the forward travel of the aircraft, providing deceleration. Thrust reversers are used by many jet aircraft to help slow down just after touch-down, reducing wear on the brakes and enabling shorter landing distances.
Thats exactly why the deceleration was so long! The deceleration distance is influenced by the weight of the aircraft, the heavier it is, the longer it will take for it to stop; because it needs more force to stop it. Exactly the same way a truck will brake on a longer distance than a small car :)
@jm431 decision height. You either say 'landing' if you are going to land or 'breaking off/going around' (something like that,not sure about 2nd part) basically, decide whether to land or not.
Hi! it's very nice to see that you put on new video's on youtube!!. Your'e vids are just the best!!!! so keep on going. klm is de beste. ik ga dit jaar naar Malaysia vliegen. heb je misschien enig idee welk vliegtuig ze op deze route gebruiken? 747/777?.
excellent landing in all ur vids, show us ur not so good landings too, like bad weather conditions, missed approaches,...i love the 747...ur engines are the G.E. or the Rolls ???
@ mmaaxx EHAM is the Icao code for Schiphol and is never changed. EGLL is for Heathrow while EDDF is for Dusseldorf for example. Its a system pilots and flight management systems are using. The code AMS is used more for passengers and booking systems. Great video! Why you don't film the parking part to? I always like it to see other aircraft to ;-) Keep them comming.
@fishis14 ATC gives a stand number followed by directions e.g. stand 104 via A3, M, N3, W1. The airport has signs with taxiway designations, you follow the signs with the numbers/letters ATC gave you.
@volcom1722 Not correct. The gear is put down when you are on the ILS glideslope passing 2000 ft above the ground. Only in cases when you are too high and you need extra drag, you can put the gear down earlier. In all other cases it is a waste of fuel if you put the gear down at 5000 ft as you are doing in FSX
very true, but landings always seem smoother from the flight deck than in the rest of the cabin, and in general the 747 has the softest landings. but im sure you know that : )
@ebksb123 knowing Schiphol, they rolled out to the end, because their gate is at the other end of the terminal building. This was the most efficient in time and costs (i.e. fuel, brakes)
How do you decide which taxi exit to take off the runway once you've landed? Is it a case of taking the next one when you've slowed down enough, or is it prescribed? Great videos btx, thanks!
@dvdr14eb In some airports, once an airplane has landed, they have already been cleared to taxi to the gate. Of course, they contact ground in case of other taxiing aircraft along the way.
@SuredT i guess we are expect to put down the landing gear when the glideslope indicator is just 1 dot above the required height. does that happen at 2000 feet AGL??
@zaphr89 In the video, when the cockpit voice says "Approaching minimums" it's calling out in feet, not metres. I've researched it a bit and it seems imperial measurements are the standard for international aviation.
