That brought back many happy memories. I worked for SAS for over thirty years and loved first the DC9 and then the MD80.....got to fly in the cockpit once CPH-LHR...........fantastic! Thank you.
You can tell that Owe, the captain, is an old fighterpilot. Going in hot at Åre/Östersund and flying all visual. Not even a glare at the instruments! During the 50s to 90s most of the pilots at SAS where former air force pilots.
Hello dear Viking Wings team thank you for these great shots from this beautiful aircraft. I work as an aircraft handler at Munich Airport and I handled the MD82 of Scandinavian Airlines myself when it was still in service for Scandinavian Airlines.
Thank you for sharing these VikingWings SAS flights with us, they are very much appreciated! I can’t believe that they climbed to FL350 (on the return leg) on such a short flight (235nm direct)!
Congratulations on this video !!! THAT HAPPINESS !!!!!!!!!! I just subscribed ... The MD80 is for me the most beautiful of planes ... and its cockpit, a marvel ... Thank you very much for this sharing ....
I love this wonderful craft! The tri-national SAS are still among the most important MD-80 operators in Europe! End of october 2013 the last MD-80 were retired! Since 1977 to 1999 I had many flights with an MD 80 from SAS! I flew from Frankfurt to Stockholm, Copenhagen or Oslo....the flights were pleasant and I always felt save! I never forget a flight to Stockholm just before christmas! The plane was adorned with silver stars and tinsel ❤️ Good times, I will never forget....
Thank you very much for sharing this amazing cockpit video with all of us (: Please keep them coming, you make us very happy with this cockpit footage!
I was searching down the comments to see if anyone else noticed. Not sure if it was a known indication problem or else or it needed that much aileron deflection.
@@VikingWings thanks for getting back to me. Enjoy your Videos. In 2012, I was Captain on the 737, comparable to what Owe was on the Maddog. Flying the 787 now for one of the US majors.
Did anyone notice the fuel weights of the the left and right wing levels? Right is 1350 kg heavier than the left wing. Also notice the Captain correcting to the left to compensate. Am I seeing this correctly?
Noticed that he was holding continuous left aileron and suspected there might be a fuel imbalance -- but didn't think to check the fuel gauges. Maximum imbalance is apparently 1500 lbs. Hm...
The MD-80 is a beautiful, old school machine but there is no need to dump on pilots flying newer airplanes. Sure they are a little easier to fly but they are still demanding and a lot of work to fly.
Thanks for the feedback. I have used "proper" voice overs before and this time I opted for this version which I personally like. But I hear you and will look into this for my next and upcoming video! Thanks for the feedback!
This video was filmed back in 2012.
Beautifully executed.
AWESOME..... love the Mad Dog. That's the power out of the JT8D engines
Thanks! Yes, it's amazing!
Not much of the power there compared to others in these turbines, still cool plane though.
By far the best MD80 video on UA-cam!, thanks!
Ah, cool. Thank you for that feedback! Glad you like it!

Thank you.
Happy to hear you got the chance to fly jumpseat. Lovely memories!
Just love the sound of this amazing bird. What a melodious music to the ear.
Yeah, they sure don't make 'em like that anymore....
...me too... I loved the noises of the 2 engines ✈️
"Next item, Coffee." 😁😀😀

💪💪
I love how the MD 80s / 90s have so many different style switches and nobs in the flight deck. lol
Gotta keep 'em busy up there :-)
Beautiful, MD82 in colors SAS, nostalgia of Mad Dog
Oh yes, so missed these days..

The work of the crew is very cool, nothing more! I watched with great pleasure, thank you.

Thank you! Happy to hear you like the video. The MD surely is amazing. I agree. Thanks for subscribing!
This captain looks very friendly and in a good mood......
Indeed a fantastic crew 👍
Yeah, Mr. Personality for sure! I’m quite certain his FO agrees! 🤐
hahahaha yes
“Nice wheelie “. Hilarious 😆
Is that good or bad? Imagine it takes a lot of pressure on the front wheel.
Great film! This must be over 10 yrs ago. The Mad Dog and the 737-600 is also history now.
Filmed back in 2012, almost 10 years ago... Miss the MD's...
Fantástic from Brazil.
Thank you!

I love this aircraft since my youth and fly it in flightsim (Leonardo Maddog) since years, and often in Viking!
Cool. Great aircraft. 👍
Thank you very much for publishing this here! I thoroughly enjoyed the Maddog
Very happy to hear you like it! I hope you have subscribed already :-)
Felicitaciones me gustó mucho muy profesionales
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this wonderful capture, so rare and valuable. 17:42 I wonder if 1350 kgs of fuel imbalance normal or tolerable on Maddog?
Thanks
You're welcome! 🤗
35:11 "Was a nice wheely on landing." LoL. Yes, i noticed it while landing. Kept the nose up for soft landing.
And increases drag to help slow down.

Viking Wings been a subscriber since day one 😁
@@ApartmentMaintenancePOV THANK YOU! 👍❤️✈️
17:43 fuel imbalance? 1350kg more in the right fuel tank. He also holding left aileron during take off.
I was searching down the comments to see if anyone else noticed. Not sure if it was a known indication problem or else or it needed that much aileron deflection.
Must have been videoed some time ago. Paper charts, no tablets. Cool!
This video was filmed back in 2012.
Tablets. Simply amazing. My back no longer hurts from carrying that old bag. Gathering dust in the closet.
Amazing video! How are you in the position to make video's like this?
I've been filming since 1997....
5 legs in one day WOW.
I remember doing 5 legs in one day way back when I was a young one. Now I do maybe 6 legs in a month.
8 years later, does anyone know on what equipment the captain is on now?
Last time I met Owe (Pre Covid19) he was on the Airbus.
@@VikingWings thanks for getting back to me. Enjoy your Videos. In 2012, I was Captain on the 737, comparable to what Owe was on the Maddog. Flying the 787 now for one of the US majors.
Happy to hear you like it Felix. Sweet being on the 787! I hope you get some flying hours in these times as well. Keep it up!
@@VikingWings I still get time in plus I also do simulator work so I am being kept busy.
What is it for alarm signal that we Can hear along the video?
possibly the Stabilizer trim
What happened to the coffee.
How do they steer it on the ground? He didn’t touch the steering wheel, but it turned? Thrust variation?
There is a tiller on the left side of the Captain. Just below the window. Like a little steering wheel. At 18.35 you can see it clearly.
The use the rudder pedals on the floor just underneath the yoke.
Great video, by the way what is the music used for the credits at the end of the video?
Thank you. The music is: "The Documentaries" by Eliho. 👍
What’s a the buzzers going of every now and then?
Stabilizer trim
Interesting that continuous left aileron was required for straight climb during initial takeoff.
717... Go!
Did anyone notice the fuel weights of the the left and right wing levels? Right is 1350 kg heavier than the left wing. Also notice the Captain correcting to the left to compensate. Am I seeing this correctly?
Noticed that he was holding continuous left aileron and suspected there might be a fuel imbalance -- but didn't think to check the fuel gauges. Maximum imbalance is apparently 1500 lbs. Hm...
He's adding left aileron to compensate for crosswind.
Heja Owe!
Cap has 2,000 hrs sailplane time! Wow
Impressive to say the least 👍
Isn’t that a 747SP at 13:12 ?
No, that's a Thai B747-400 👍
It is sad that these MD-80's aint flying no more...
Very sad indeed. They are missed...
@@VikingWings WHY. Because what we can miss its that beautys who work on or worked. Whatever.
@@VikingWings I used to travel a lot on Finnair, SAS, Iberia and Swissair a they all flex the DC-9 / MD-80 back in the days.
It was just a question of whether this plane still flies for this company.
SAS Retired their MD's many years ago....
Ah plastic bugs. Not seen those in years 😉
What year is it?
This video was filmed in 2012.
That's Airplane; Not Autom 320-330!!
This is flight; Not by ware and Sidestyck/ Airbus filosof
All-Computer System's
Yep, this is the real deal!
The MD-80 is a beautiful, old school machine but there is no need to dump on pilots flying newer airplanes.
Sure they are a little easier to fly but they are still demanding and a lot of work to fly.
Very nice content overall, but you should really do a proper voiceover instead of this computer generated voice.
Thanks for the feedback. I have used "proper" voice overs before and this time I opted for this version which I personally like. But I hear you and will look into this for my next and upcoming video!
Thanks for the feedback!
I guess headsets are for those magenta children....
Not needed in this silent cockpit :-)
The first officer seems bored 😐
Captain looks hung over?? Serious bed head....I report you decide
