    That's beautiful....
    Notice three functions of the spoiler panels. In the first part of the video they're partially extended as Speed brakes ( manual input for excessive speed bleed), on finals they're moving up with the ailerons for roll control as crew put in small corrections to maintain runway line, and finally on touchdown as ground spoilers to 'spoil' the wing's lift and settle the aircraft firmly on the ground, shifting the load fully on the wheels, they also create aerodynamic drag as secondary deceleration devices to contribute in deceleration assisting thrust reversers and brakes - the primary decelerators.

    It's the lifting of the flaps upon landing that make the A380 so special. From a front-on view, the plane transforms itself into, what I call, a Klingon Bird of Prey. It's breathtaking.

    It's the noises on planes that make me nervous. If I had a video like this in front of me (or you sitting beside me 😂) saying Flaps 1, Flaps 2 etc then I'd know this is what is supposed to be happening and I wouldn't worry so much!
    When I was in my 20s and 30s flying didn't phase me AT ALL. For some reason as I get older I now hear every sound and think "should that be happening?". It's a curse! I blame movies and all the noises they use when a plane is crashing!!
    About 20 years ago I flew on an old Ryanair 737. It was so well insulated that you couldn't hear a single sound from outside. No flap noise, nothing. I wish all planes were like that 😂😂😂

    Wow!!! That's really cool to see all the mini movements of the little control surfaces - like the trailing edge of a bird's wing - and the flaps and the wing drop from inside the plane!!! I watched it three times!! Thanks!!!!

    Cool. I remember years ago been in Luxembourg airport and watching a Cargolux takeoff. I was with a pilot and he told me, watch for the wing tips lifting when they start creating lift, it was very cool to see. But this is the first time I really seen the opposite, wings losing lift, interesting video.

    great shot in showing that wing doing what it was designed to do, and efficiently too. The motors whirring away making that wing change beautifully flaps 1 -4. Was clever engineering then still is. and the weight lit off well. Now to finally see that which i missed 5 times. you learn something every day

    We did the Auckland to Singapore on the their A380 end of Jan great flight, we changed at Singapore onto a B777 to Frankfurt , The A380 was a great flight quiet and plenty of room, in comparison the B777 was very dated felt old. We ended our journey flying back to Lisbon on a Lufhansa A320 . Best sector of the journey was the SQ A380.

  • @alexanderhall4281

    Brilliant. When you've got a plane that big those wings are going to sag. Must have been difficult in the making of these enormous wings .

  • @trancekingpj
    @trancekingpj Місяць тому +1

    Always great to see the A380 in action like this. I'm guessing this might be a Gilly question in light of the more technical aspects of it from a videography perspective but seeing as you're able to screen grab the flight replay from FR24 then I wonder if there's a way to show the flightpath in tandem with the flight video you captured showing your journey into the runway? It would be very cool to see the wing action in relation to a map of the flight over London.
    Good to see you both back safely and hope your body clocks are returning to normal now.
