Ryanair Landing Goes Wrong 

I disagree with the caption ... the Ryanair pilot did a great sideslip to counteract the crosswind. The telephoto lens created the illusion that the wing tip was close to the ground.

That Rayanair pilot did a straight up combat landing. Wow.

Kudos to the Ryanair pilot, outstanding skills.

That Ryanair landing was quite impressive. Im not a pilot nor have I ever worked in aviation, but that was wild.

Madeira Airport never disappoints.

First clip with Ryan air at Madeira... not saying that it wouldn't have been better to go around (or even divert to another airport), but holy &$^# that was some impressive aircraft handling.

Nothing very strange about the landing in Madeira by Ryanair... Most of the times there are strong crosswinds at Madeira airport that make it very hard to do a stabilized approach... Probably one of the most difficult airports to land in the World! It's a test to the pilots skills!

That Ryanair landing was pro, landed centre of the runway despite all the wind being thrown at them.

This pilot knows his stuff. That was a controlled crabbing for wind landing. Great job.

Actually, that is a very good landing, sounded very windy, difficult approached and he nailed it, very impressive for Ryanair or any other airline.

That looked skilled - dropping into the crosswind and floating down.

Ryanair pilot practicing his short field side slip approach to a perfect touch down. Nicely done Captain.

When I read the title of this video I already know I’m boutta see Ryan airs best landing.

That ryanair landing was straight up fucking incredible

That was not very close to a wingstrike. Perspective is everything here, especially from that angle things tend to look a bit weird.

sorry, the first one was a fuc...g genius! it may looked like the wing is close to earth but look on the shadow, it was far from it, just genius skills!

Ryan air, not an unstabilized approach. They got hit by a bad crosswind, but the pilots handled it professionally.

I never understand why people seem to think Ryanair have firmer landings than other airlines. Surely it’s just dependent on conditions, same as any other airline. Ryanair don’t exactly train their pilots to do hard landings or have less go-arounds than other airlines. They have an exceptional safety record.

1:58 that pilot DID NOT want to go around LOL

I’ve never heard someone get so excited about a TOGA

The Ryanair landing was actually quite impressive / pilots did an amazing job.

He did not almost crash… that was an impressive feat of piloting there.

A380 flaps sound never disappoints!

Your video title is totally unfair spin. You say the pilot "Almost Crashes Plane". That sounds like "pilot royally screwed up". To me it looks like the pilot did an excellent job landing under difficult conditions.

Video owner narrations seem to ruin their videos.

That RyanAir landing was very impressive. Hell of a ride though I bet.

Fantastic landing by Ryan air. Really tough conditions and beautiful save without going around

I've re-watched the first clip several times now... what a thing of beauty.

I held my breath with that approach! Impressed as all hell with the pilots skill.

that was the slickest landing ever.

That strong, right quartering crosswind definitely made the approach to land on that already difficult approach a bigger challenge

Big Jet's commentary always gets me 😂 This one was only missing a "flippin heck"

Surprisingly amazing landing, handled those cross-winds perfectly

First clip, Ryanair. Pilot works the crosswind to perfection. What an absolute Guv'nor. 😎

I dunno how you could call that "goes wrong"; in those conditions, that was simply beautiful.

Almost crashes?... Wdym? That's how you land a plane in cross wind. This wasn't a bad landing

Very skilled Ryanair pilot, safest airline in Europe with the best pilots

Perfect de-crab landing under such conditions. Fantastic job!

That is the best Ryanair landing I've ever seen on this channel.

What ? That title should be renamed to "Skillful Ryanair pilot makes a successfully difficult landing". He/she was nowhere near crashing. Sorry but you get a downvote for this.

Love these uploads

Ryanair Top pilot! Mad skill

Yay my clip made it!!! Thanks so much!

Man that was sick! good landing

Outstanding landing!!

"see that volcano over there? Fly into it" "No" "No balls" "Fine"

That last flap one.... A lot of noise for seemingly very little movement.

That was an amazing landing. Well done to that ryanair pilot 👏

How do you know the Ryanair approach was unstable? What criteria are you using to make that claim? A challenging approach does not mean it was unstable. A wing strike doesn’t mean the approach was unstable.

ryr landing up with that wind and bad rwy,great work

Today's collection was 🔥🔥🔥

Ryan Air flight was not unstabelized. You can hear the wind in the video and the pilots were in a crab for the crosswind that makes it appear that the flight was "unstable."

Great flying. Expect the worst during landing specially when there are crosswinds. I’m always thankful to pilots after arriving safe.

I love that you could here the thud from the landing gear touching the ground on the 777

Impressive landing in view of the conditions

Clickbait video title: Ryanair Pilot Almost Crashes Plane. Translation: "It was a normal Ryanair landing". Okay, actually a skilled landing under difficult wind conditions. (Editor's note: if Funchal was limited to stable approaches only, they would have plane service there once every two weeks or so). Iceland scenes...way cool (or hot!!). A380 "high lift system" with slats and flats...is this any different than any other aircraft?

I've just reviewed the approach plates for runway 05 at Madeira. The video doesn't seem to bear much resemblance to the published visual approach path where the aircraft is expected to be lined up with the runway at Rosario 1.1nm from the threshold at a minimum altitude of 460 feet QNH. The Ryanair flight is still turning as it crosses the runway threshold.(note the shadow). I think if I'd been flying that approach in the sim there would have been a few choice words from the training captain afterwards - like "what the f%%% was that all about?!?!?". I don't think that pilot will be celebrating the (lucky/fortunate) landing and won't be boasting of his exploits on RU-vid. Airline flying is about safety, not military-style fighter approaches!!! With all due respect what the general public sees as 'heroic' is not usually contained with the airline's SOPs. Oh, and remember a superior pilot is one who avoids situations that require the use of his/her superior skills. Retired B737 pilot, flying instructor and flight examiner

My respect for Ryanair just doubled!

I always like to hear the guy who filmed the second clip. When he is watching planes he’s at peak happiness. 😆

Excellent job of “crabbing it in.” 👍🏻

0:37 that's class right there.

What a brilliant landing. Wow.

perfectly controlled and normal landing into a strong cross wind

how do you know if its an unstab app with ryr?? have you landed in madeira... you should maybe review your video explanations! 😘

02:09 Great Sound of the 380. Love it....

bro yesterday took a flight for the second time in my life and i can feel every small movement, and when it goes down i get the same feeling that when a rollercoaster goes down from the top, i cant imagine what that people felt omfg

That BA 777 go-around was much smoother than the camera work. :)

No passenger had opted in to the 20 dollar "Go around" option when booking their flights.

Amazing piloting by Rayanair!

Wow, thats skill right there. The RyanAir landing was very very tough.

Awesome job first landing

To be fair that’s one of the better Ryanair landings, every flight of theirs I’ve been in we’ve hit the runway like a flipping dart

0:44 yes, Ryanair buttel landing 🗿

Nice landing! Wow!😊

Actually is great brave landing and the pilot really have bools to land in such hard situation and not decide to abord the landing like most of the pilots will do, you need to be a pilot to understand how much skills you need for such a landing 🎉🎉🎉

Ryanair pilots got the skills to land so hard but not break anyone's backs.👏👏

How is that Unique? I have heard that same sound on pretty much any airliner i have sat near the trailing edge of the wing, its the hydraulic pumps for the screw drives.

Amazing landing!

Nice, i love your videos

A imagem estática está mais assustadora do que o pouso em si, que foi executado com maestria por um comandante experiente e bem safo! Muito bem aviador!!

great landing!!!

Damm good recovery 😊

Stabilized approach at Funchal!? What does that means?

Impressive

Great video!😸

Funchal is always difficult, better now since they extended the runway. Ryanair pilots did very well.

Rayanair pilot Bravooo!!!!!

RyanAir: “What do you mean we’re gonna have to go around?”

In tough conditions, those are great landings.

Ryanair training is at UK airports like Stansted airport in essex

"that really made me want to visit Madeira", said nobody ever who watched this video.

That airport is notorious for crosswinds and landings there, the pilot did a great job.

Madeira's airport (LPMA) is famous on this one :D

Best ryannair pilot

Jerry’s commentary is so great 😂

that ryanair touchdown was acually good man..

Luckily "almost"only counts in Horseshoes. For all that can be said about Ryan Air one thing is it carries the 3rd highest amount of passengers in the world and never had a passenger fatality. Airlines 1,2, and 4 can't claim that.

on the A380 I heard the unique noise when I went on Cathay Pacific

Seems like a very well executed landing. Nowhere was there a near wing strike.

That a380 flap sounds giving me chills
