Landing on Runway 28 R at San Francisco Int'l Airport. Approach started with a visual approach for Rwy 28L. When we passed San Mateo bridge we had to side step for Rwy 28R.
Most chill landing conditions I have seen yet. Sunny, clear, over water and led by long runway guides to the landing. The San Francisco International Airport itself has nice vibes as well. Flew into it many times when I lived there. Thanks SuredT!
Thank you so much for this video. For a Briton like me who flys regularly into european, and occasionally to Florida and Australia, this video was a supreme 'from-the-cockpit' eye-opener. The 'chatter' from the crew and the relentless noises from the engines and that experienced by the crew from the cockpit made it a very realistic experience which I have 'experienced' six times, on and off since yesterday evening. Thankyou SureT.
I love this video. I first flew into SFO from YUL in 2000 to meet my future wife. At one point during the landing, the KLM 747 passes by Foster City on the left where my mother in law lives. Many times I have stood in her driveway and watched the planes, KLM and others, come in to land. I still do the same thing whenever we go to visit. This video brings back so many happy thoughts. It's nice to know what's going on inside the plane that I am watching from the outside. Thank you very much
As a former truck driver and current locomotive engineer I am always fascinated by these transportation profession related videos. I would love to be an airline pilot someday
Thank you very much for sharing this view - wonderful! To see landing from dead on instead of 'little building's and such flying past horizontally....amazing :)
Great job with the videos and thanks. My Dad was a TWA 747 & L-1011 Captain, and watching your videos takes me back to a younger day when I rode up front with him before he finally flew west. I would also vote for video all the way to the gate. Ten minute videos are fine with me. Thanks again for the ride and for some great entertainment on these cold Nebraska nights!
What a smooth taxi... All your flights are so flawless.... Congrats once again... I finally was able to land on the simulator the 747-700 thanks to your vids..
Thank you so much for these wonderful videos. They are some of the best on RU-vid ! Very Clear images and no camera trepidations . Awesome. You need to post some videos about how aircraft parking is undertaken after a landing. Would be nice !
Wow so cool! Thanks for posting it! For anyone who ever has a little time to spare at SFO, in Terminal 2, near the connector to Terminal 1, is this HUGE screen that shows air traffic at SFO. It is a time lasped computer graphic display that shows all the planes landing, taking off, and transitting, through the airspace near SFO.
In Microsoft Flight Simulator, the whole scenery looks exactly the same as in this video... AMAZING ! Very smooth landing, the altitude call outs... when he reached 10, it took him 3 seconds to touch down... 3.3 feet per second... Very nice job
Great video! I grew up up the hill from SFO in San Bruno. Been to all those places you flew over to watch aircraft flying into SFO. One time I don't know why but a B-52 Bomber came in for a landing and landed then took off again. May have had problems. Thanks for sharing! Love it
the tower gives the final sidestep call, but when approach control clears you for the approach, they can say "cleared ILS 28L approach, expect sidestep to runway 28R" its just a way to speed up ATC traffic flow because they can just line everyone up on one localizer and then have them sidestep if its a clear day like that one was
i would like to see a video of you pulling up to the gate with a ground worker marshalling your plane to the dock, but your take off and landings are PERFECT, i have them in my faves!!!
@jbskies At 03:40 I say in Dutch: don't look at ILS indication, you'll get a new frequency from me. So the answer is: when we have time we switch frequencies and use the PFD again. If we are too low to do this we fly purely visual. And yes we have to possibility to program 2 routes in the FMS , so we can program a second runway as backup
Beste SuredT, prachtige filmpjes heb je hier neergezet. 4 jaar geleden dezelfde trip gedaan on KLM MD11, kan me alles nog herinneren. Vertrek SFO naar Amsterdam zelfde verhaal, schitterend gewoon. Van Virgin Atlantic wa hier ook zo'n mooie weergave te zien van ITTV, maar die zijn helaas verwijderd, zal wel een copyright thing geweest zijn of zo. Die waren prachtig, alles werd uitgelegd. Misschien krijgen we die nog wel weer een te zien. Bedankt voor de mooie bijdragen. Groeten, Stephan
@SuredT Great video! Question on the side step: Did you switch to 28R localizer frequency and track on PFD when side step was issued or just purely fly visual without PFD reference? Is it possible to program FMC to put 28R localizer as the backup and switch it at the last minute? or it's too much trouble? thanks in advance.
