Massive respect to the suspension engineers at Boeing. They use RyanAir metrics to design their crucial parts
Actually Boeings are VERY durable aircraft. ie: 737 is rated for landing at 45 Degrees off runway axis.
More than enough to introduce 'Religion' to inexperienced pilots .
Hitting a wing tip speaks volumes on the pilots' skill levels though.
@@barenekid9695airbus is too
I would never trust any Boeing plane they're well known for falling out the sky and doing all sorts of weird things I only fly on airbus And that does not always have to be the A380
@@thingstodoinguernseychanne4950 lol ok
Boeing don't design the gear, it's usually put out to another company, frequently BF Goodrich Aerospace.
Ryanair is just more friendly than other airlines. They even high five the runway on landing
I've landed high fixes with less impact than that.
Its just the Irish way.
😂😂😂
RYANAIR EXECUTIVES are rear-ends, they charge everything including wheelchairs.
Low five😂
My worst landing as a passenger was on United about 18 years ago. The pilot came out and took his lumps as we deplaned, I was impressed by his willingness to show his face after that landing. Major respect for him.
Super respectful
😂😂
@@user-rx2gh8ns1jI would absolutely not stand outside for the real culprit. When you're a woman taking lumps for mistakes, you're unfairly representing all women. (And all women unfairly represented BY you.) The "Oh that explains it" eyerolling and sly picture taking. Nope!
@@C.Church lmfao "unfairly representing all women", is an ironic twist for your comment. How far up your own ass do you have to be to miss the fact that you're assuming the co-pilot is always a woman? A furthermore to assume that the captain *couldn't* be a woman.
You are literally upholding stereotypes in a misguided effort to somehow defend women, who weren't in question at all....
@@user-rx2gh8ns1j Did I not say "I would not"? Your meltdown over assumptions and chain of command is irrational.. exactly what my post was about. THAT is what I'm talking about. Don't skip your meds next time.
My dad was an airline employee (not a pilot), so we got discount fares, and I've had lots of flights across the US in my life. I remember one in particluar; escorting my daughter to a college in Canada. The pilots were greeting the de-planing passengers, and I just HAD to stop and tell him, "That was the smoothest landing I've ever felt: like a mother cat setting down her kitten!" His smile and heartfelt thanks were worth any discomfort I may have felt about being "so bold" or shy... ;-)
I've always made a point of asking the cabin crew to pass on a compliment for a smooth landing.
The famous “Concerned pilot watching questionable content” face of Kelsey. My MAN!
I love it 😄
With all his trips, and landings, it could be genuine pain.
I adore his concerned/extremely concentrated looks when he studies the videos!!😂
@@adriaba790 Well, he has years of experiences that allow him to FEEL some things. My flights have all been too smooth. I can abstractly appreciate what I see, but Kelsey can use memories in his bones to relive some of these landings.
Just so you know... I flew out of DFW yesterday, on a 737 (AA) and we hit some really bad turbulence... Service had just started and the pilot came on the PA to announce they were suspending service due to "some bad air up here", and would resume once it stopped. Well it never stopped, it was pretty bad, I had a window seat above the wing and looking out he window you could see the wing flex and bend in the turbulence. Looking over my seat at everyone in front of me, their heads were rocking back and forth, seats moving all in sync. It was rough, it was somewhat violent and I remained calm and didn't panic... Why? Because you have said, there's never been a case of a turbulence bringing down a plane. They are made and designed with turbulence in mind. So just wanted to say thank you, I haven't flown since 1985 and between your channel, Mentour's channel and the Mid Air Disasters channel, I have seen a ton of airplane accident videos. And let's just say, I was a little nervous flying.
As a passenger the best you can do is remain calm and go over the safety brochure a number of times so everything you could be asked to do is clear in your mind.
I'll also suggest - when you travel by air, you ought to be wearing only natural material clothing, no man made stuff (like nylon). Reason being - if you do crash and survive the crash, you don't want your clothing melting onto your skin.
The wings are designed to flex and bend, to a somewhat alarming degree sometimes. If the wing is doing the shaking, it soaks up some of the bouncing for the tube.
and closed-toed shoes. Something like snow boots would be best, I imagine. @@monkeybarmonkeyman
How long did it last? I always appreciate when pilots give a duration, even though it probably will be inaccurate.
👍 as @monkeybarmonkeyman said ... As a passenger the best you can do is remain calm, freaking out isn't going to do you, the other passengers or flight crew any good, there's absolutely nothing you can do, the pilot and copilot are both professional, they know what they're doing and would love to arrive and land safely 😊
Ryanair did greet the passengers the one time that I flew with them. Although as I was exiting the plane, in response to their spectacular landing, my dad asked the pilot “Did we land or get shot down??”. I wouldn’t be surprised if they stopped greeting the passengers after that 💀
Ha ha, not bad!
Here’s $5…Buy your Dad a cup of coffee ☕️ on me! That’s the greatest line to a pilot 👩✈️ EVER
ok so first of all i don't know why they didn't greet you or why that's a problem on flights averaging less than 50 euro and if you not harmed the landing isn't a problem that's also disrespectful to the pilot you don't tell the bus driver he is shit at driving now do you? common manners.
Hahaha I haven't heard that one before. Boom. Roasted.
@@Flying_Shamrock Either this is bait, or you are truly serious, really hoping its the former. But in the chance you ARE serious, let me give you some advice: don't take everything you see on the internet literally. And second, it's not news that Ryanair hires extremely new and inexperienced pilots and take every measure possible to reduce costs, and nothing against that. But you better believe that when they land hard enough to pop the overhead bin open, people are going to speak up. Best of luck, friend!
Just want to say I love your channel! I can get bored with lots of channels but I’ve been watching you since the pandemic-every video! Love the combo of technical info/explanation, general info, occasional humor! It has help me feel more at ease & educated as a traveler! Thank you!!!
I love it when you say “ask me how I know” lol
I always enjoy how you admit your mistakes. I always admit that you learn by your own mistakes, nobody is perfect. Keep up the great videos.
So true
When you mess up,
Fess up,
SORT IT!
Kelsey is perfect in every way. He literally has to make up his mess ups to make sure he is relatable to his massive audience lol
Ryanair landings have gotten a lot better in the last few years. They had a policy land fast so you can save money. That because they used to get new planes and sell the old ones before they hit 12Y (Lots of required checks at 12 year, including a Landing gear overhaul). Now they have expanded so fast that they can no longer buy planes fast enough to sell the old ones before they hit 12Y. Also the whole 737-max issue for a while stopped them getting planes. But they started to see large bills for landing gears overhauls done at the 12Y mark now that they used to not see because the sold the plane before they appeared.
Love your analysis of these landings. Your explanation is easy to understand. Stay safe! ✈️ ❤
I found it very helpful in your video where you highlighted how you could see so much of the right engine at one time and then how you could see the difference in the position of the wheels as the plane "rocked" before landing. That brought to my attention the extent of the rocking and how you could notice that long before the dramatic dip of the right wing and the lifting up of the left wheels. Thank you for your excellent video.
I like the images and animations you've added to your videos. Really enjoy your commentary!
I fly with Ryanair regularly to see my family in Ireland and I don’t often see the pilot at the door, I always just assumed it was because they have such a short turnaround time.
The other airline I fly most often with is EasyJet! Whenever I see a go around clip now I’m always looking for the gear to go up!
The quotes “lesser of two evils” and “devil you know vs the devil you don’t know” come to mind.”
you need to pay extra to see the pilot haha
Darn you’re SUI CI DAL 😅
@@danilodistefanis5990 Irish whiskey is key to making this decision
@@danilodistefanis5990 The number of Ryanair crashes still stands at 0
Kel, Thank you for explaining so I can understand and learn. Now when I fly I enjoy the whole experience! I feel like an insider.
Thank you very much! Your explanations are always great! 😊 Especially how it is explained. And your honesty in all things. I also think it is far better to be humble and honest and always willing to learn than to risk even greater difficulties.
All the best and keep the blue side up! 😊
Now I only fly light aircraft, but the point of view in the flare, and muscle memory, is similar to going from my work truck, to my Explorer. Truck is 72 feet long, explorer is 10. First couple turns on the way home are wicked wide.
"Ask me how I know..." while putting that grim face hahaha... Love it. Bad boy Casey!
These types of videos made me learn a lot from aviation. Thanks for all of the great content and congrats on 1 million!
Another great video! Thank you for using your time to make these for us! Much appreciated.
Good morning and Happy Sunday! Thanks for posting another video, Kelsey!
Man, I'm glad I found your channel. This is awesome!! Thanks.
I can't get over how addictive your videos are. Super informative and they help me with my anxiety over flying to hear everything that goes on behind the scenes that we, as passengers, don't get to experience!
Dude I’ve literally watched like non stop for 2 weeks and I’m almost out of videos and idk what I’m gonna do
The graphics are getting better and better, well done team. So informative, love your style Kelsy.
Yeah, thanks for staying honest and humble admitting your educational experiences.
Seriously, it’s comforting to watch this channel. I’m an aspiring airline pilot, starting flight school in a month, and watching him talk about his experience on this channel really eases my insecurities a ton.
@joshuagill395 good luck in your studies and travels ❤😊
@@joshuagill395 good luck with flight school 🫡
Always great to hear your assessments, Kelsey!!!
In support of the Easyjet insistence on the go-around, it's probably just a better standard to keep it deliberate. Once a go-around is called, just follow through. There have been quite a few incidents made worse by the indecision of the pilots... a "do we...don't we...do we...don't we..." chain of flip-flopping that ultimately loses what little control there was.
Kind of like the advice (most often) given about "porpoising"... "Don't bother trying to save a landing. It's easier to just go around and try to get set up properly for a good stable landing on the next try."
I'm no professional at the whole flying thing... It just seems to carry over from all other machine and particularly vehicular skills I've been exposed to or taught. "Never EVER get in a fight with your machine. You WILL lose." SO any method by which one can avoid jerking the controls around or stomping on pedals is probably to the benefit of the plane, passengers, cargo, and especially the pilot and his career... at least from where I see it. The bigger the machine, the worse the idea gets for jerking around or fighting with the controls.
I DO have a question... maybe a silly one... BUT "How important is it to have clean underwear as a pilot?" I know from truck driving, in the case of an accident, "First you'll say it, and then you're gonna do it." SO underwear get soiled... haha ;o)
Hi Kelsey, always enjoy your videos so thanks. I've flown on Ryanair many times over the years and boy do they slam the aircraft down on the tarmac real hard. I believe they are always under pressure to get the planes down on or before time but it always worries me the stresses it must cause on the airframe.
I appreciate the end when you said something about that it is harder to explain to your flight attendants about why it was a hard landing. There was a puddle....the runway was wet....or yeah the sky was blue.
Love your content, keep it coming.
I don't think the wingtip touched, but it sort of looks like the right nacelle did. Also, you could have pressed a pair of pants under those ANA 787 tires at 2:58 he absolutely *GREASED* that landing.
Looks like an engine strike to me, too.
Hey I just have to say I enjoy your channel so much! I am not a pilot or anything like that but have always been interested in aviation and how things work. I find your channel very entertaining and informative! Keep up the great work! Viewer from Canada ❤
Thanks Kelsey. As always you explain things in a way we all can understand! Be safe & of course….keep the blue side up!
Kelsey has the git of explaining complex ideas in a way ANYBODY can understand.
What do you mean? 🤔
git
A 'git' is an unsavoury and usually a stupid person. I'm sure Kelsey isn't a git, whatever your opinion!
And with empathy ❤
It’s called being a pilot.
looking at the stabilizers on the easyjet, it looked like the pilot flying called the go around as soon as the first bounce was a little off balance. it hit, the stabilizers straightened a little, and then went up to climb and stayed there.
Brilliant explanation, analysis and commentary. I have been educated and informed to an amazing degree. Bravo
G'day Capt Kelsey, of 74 Gear. ;) One of the greatest sights i have ever seen, was from the cockpit of a 747 coming into Sydney Australia, from New Zealand after dark, back in 1978. Yes we passengers were allowed with permission, to go into the cockpit. My girl hadn't been in there before, so I arranged it for us both, what an amazing glittering sight from 80 kms out, and slow descent. My first time in a cockpit was on a vickers viscount.. Now that is going back to when i was about 10 yrs old, my first airline flight was on a Turbo Prop. I feel old now.. :/
When I flew with Ryan Air they consistently landed really hard. Much harder than any other airline I have flown with. A few times enough to feel it in my spine. This was a big part of why I stopped flying with them, despite being the cheapest option at the time.
I love the fact that modern planes are so over engineered that a pilot can botch a landing like that and, in the grand scheme of things, everything is ok.
Not exactly. Like bad driving, the machine needs repair sooner.
Would still need inspection. It could have damaged things and not totally failed. There’s plenty of cases of landing gear failing from a hard landing.
@@NBSV1I constantly think that. If we bang our cars up, we cross our fingers and hope a trip to the mechanic isn't necessary. But so much in airplanes depend on certain things like landing gear. And only the smoothes landing is kind to such parts. I know there is periodic maintenance. And the walkarounds have to satisfy the pilot there is "one more flight in this baby". Till you reject a takeoff. Then, maybe no.
Well, maybe not EVERYTHING is OK. You are alive and tomorrow is waiting. That plane? It may fly with a couple of new bruises. I wonder if their planes are advertised online "used plane, only a few broken parts".
@@JimMork They’re sold on eBay as “like new” ;)
I notice some characteristics of Kelsey. He is insightful, educational, a natural story teller, and very funny. He also fly's B-747's too. And another quality is he brings out the best in commentors. I love the Kelsey content, but I really anticipate the stories from the commentors too. Bravo all around.
I'm an American living in japan and just flew to and from Hokkaido. I have a fear of flying, but watching 74Gear's videos I literally was counting down as we were landing, counting out like the computer. The pilot did a perfect job. Only problem was JAL which after we landed, we had to sit on the taxi way for 30 minutes because the plane in our gate was slow to vacate which was a problem when we took off both times. (No wonder JAL has dropped to #2 in Japan). But watching these videos definitely made me feel much better. Thanks!!!!
Hmmm, on the 737 and now Airbus depending on the crosswind having a little bit of wing into wind is common. What doesn’t help is those barn doors on the wing tips. When I fly the older A320 with the original wingtip fence I find it a lot more forgiving in a crosswind than the sharklets.
Flown into Dublin many times, it can be very rough on the approach.
If I recall, the crosswind limitation is actually lower with the barn doors out there than without, or with sharklets.
yes someone who understands the winds in Ireland are bad this pilot was likely new and the wind seemed to lift the aircraft if you look at the spoilers and ailerons the roll didn't seem pilot induced defiantly mistakes made but wind was a factor!
@@jaysmith1408 landing is the same, slight reduction for take off, on the 320 it is. Been a long time since I touched a 737.
It is a Boeing approved procedure to use the "wing low method" in combination with "crabbing". Might not work on the 747, but it is definitely safe on the 737 with winglets, as long as you don't exceed 8.8 degrees of bank.
its Ryainair, they won't care
It was awesome to finally meet you man, hopefully your stay in Tucson was good.
It was landing on runway 28L @ Dublin, at 7.18 minutes into the video you can clearly see the windsock under the influence of a strong southerly crosswind.
If they were flying into Dublin on some occasions it can be as windy as hell.
Flying out of Dublin on one occasion we had just got airborne and were hit by one hell of gust from the side and you could see the tarmac getting very close then the pilot corrected and off we went to Bristol.
I live a 30-minute drive from Pittsburgh International Airport and 2 small regional airports. One is on a reserve base, and the other is where the medievac helicopter comes from. So there is a ton of air traffic over where I live. I have been following air traffic on the flight radar 24 app for 6+ months now. I have noticed that the 737 and A320 are the 2 loudest planes who fly over. I can hear them both over the sound of TV, air-condition, and fans running vs. all the others, I will only head if I am outside. I love to hear them and get so excited to pull up flight radar anytime I hear any air traffic and announce the type of plane, the airline, where its coming from, and where it's going and the current altitude to any person in ear shot. Not really related to this video just felt like talking about it.
I did bust out laughing at the comment about Ryan air being friendlier than other airlines, so much so that they high five the runway. 😂 too dang funny
Love your videos, the quality is also improving with more illustrations, i also want to be a pilot one day and i learn a lot from you channel, just wanna show my appreciation.👍🤝🤝
I love how you end every video with 'keep the blue side up'.
I've even used it a few times myself.
At 2:31 the windsock is in the middle of the frame, and it's straight out. It might be sunny and clear, but it looks like there's a monster crosswind.
good eye!
So, if you stop it right as he's passing over the other Ryanair plane, you can see the windsock. And it's straight out at a front left quartering wind. So there was quite a strong bit of wind, at least partially coming from the left.
I flew for the first time last week thanks to you and your videos. You've ignited a passion I didn't know i had! I'm a paramedic sesrching for a new career due to assaults/personal safety.
Went up in a Sling 2 and it was incredible! So THANK YOU.
Good luck in your career transition!!!!!!
@@ClearedAsFiled thank you! 😊
Just have to say your channel is fantastic! It’s very informative and funny(especially the roast videos). Keep doing what you’re doing Kelsey!
If 156 passengers walked away.
It was a good landing 👌
Another great vlog 😊
Kelsey, can you do a video on cloud formations and which ones you want to stay out of based on visual?
We had sheet lighting recently that lasted for an hour and we live in the flight path for the airport. The storm was huge and really no way to go around it unless you made a massive detour. What do you do in those sort of situations? What if you didn't have enough fuel?
Anyhow... Hope your day has been awesome and the flight attendants had many snacks for you😂.
Great analysis! Theres a windsock just after it passes the other Ryanair plane. Looks like a fairly stiff wind, but not a full crosswind.
I looked very carefully to that landing, and I see the nose gear touching down first after the bounce, right before the plane is behind the structure. Great video Kelsey!
The pilot learned from famous chinese CFI One Wing Low. On a serious note, in GA we don't usually have pods below the wings and even low wing planes land with one main touching down first in crosswind intentionally. The real issue was sink rate here on touch down. You don't flare a GA plane, you fly it down the runway until the stall warning gives you permission to land about a foot of the ground with the mains and two with the nose gear. And you never release the back pressure on the stick.
That's funny to me cause I never had a bad landing even when I flew with the sh.ttest low cost Chinese airline. Ryanair on the other hand... I got the impression that cheap Chinese airlines get these ex military pilots who are just freaking amazing as commercial pilots.
Thank you Thank you Thank you! I hadn't flown in 15 years and was not looking forward to my flight to Newfoundland yesterday. After watching your videos, I learned SO much I walked onto that plane like I owned it. I knew what every sound was, I knew exactly what to expect, and was able to give my sister confidence when sounds made her nervous. You helped me have a really wonderful experience. :-D
I still remember a year or two before the pandemic, there was a record year with zero plane crashes and/or casualties related to plane crashes. A full year, hundreds of thousands of flights, millions of hours in the air, trillions of hours of engines running, not a single accident.
There is no safer thing in the entire world, than modern airplanes.
@@GeomancerHT To add to your comment, there hasn't been a single commercial plane crash in the US since 2009. That was Colgan Air flight 3407, flying for Continental Connection. Someone wins the Powerball lottery every year. But nobody has died in a commercial plan crash in the US 14 years. So, your chance of experiencing a plane crash is zero, and you have a much higher chance of winning the Powerball lottery. Back in the the 90's, it was fairly common to hear about plane crashes on the news. Now, you never hear about them, and when you do, it's either a private jet, or a crash in another country.
Well said Kelsey. I apply the same principle to flying my C172!
My favorite Kelsey quote…with the gleam in the eye and smirky smile…”Ask me how I know” 😁
Good morning to you, Kelsey👋🏻 from Chicago.😁 I hope this day finds you well and happy🙂 BROTHER!
KEEP THE BLUE SIDE UP 🛩🫡
That's an East Midlands to Dublin flight. The training school for Ryanair is there. The training pilot always fly the home leg. I fly Dublin to East Midlands and back a lot. You get used to it. You have to or else my trousers gets destroyed.
LH1397 from PRG to FRA. Plane hit turbulence on the descent but the pilot landed so smooth we didn't even feel when the gears touch the ground. Absolute perfection and the first time in 20 years I heard the passengers clap afterwards. I hope the pilots appreciate these gestures.
Thanks for the video, Kelsey
At 5:31 you said that there isn't a wind sock visible but at 2:30 you are able to see one. Great video regardless and very enjoyable
And it seems to be fully inflated!!
Don't know about how Ryan Air does things but once flew in on a regional smaller plane into Baton Rouge on an extremely windy day. Airport near the river, and high winds. We were rocking like that and I damn near lost my lunch on the approach and landing. Very uncomfortable in the back of the plane.
another great video, keep it up good sir ! !
In mitigation there was a strong 15-20kt crosswind that day from the south when many flights were diverted to EINN
I'm thinking on the 2nd flight, the decision to go around was already taken before they touched down, the engines already spooling up and the wheels only touched down because of momentum.
Several years ago we were coming into SFO on a rainy night in a 30 kt crosswind. The pilot had the plane crabbing about 25 degrees off the center line just before landing and gusts were hitting the plane pretty hard. Unfortunately, just as he started the flair and straightened out, the wind had a major lull, he lost airspeed and the plane dropped about three feet to a hard impact.
We were glad to be safely on the ground, but I bet they had to examine the gear.
I wasn't looking at the wings on the Easyjet, I watched the landing gear torque back and forth a little, and the tires definitely helped to absorb that blow. I work on cars and that much 'flex' in the suspension would make it time for new shocks and maybe ball joints and definitely an alignment.
My flight instructor who was a retired 727 pilot put me at ease when he showed me you can control the yoke with one finger. I learned that but also lined up with the taxi way, thankfully he took control and corrected me.
You left out a vital bit of information. This happened in Dublin during extremely high winds last November. Most fights were diverted to Shannon Airport that day and the rest only landed on their second try.
"Weather conditions were far from ideal for flyers yesterday as Met EIreann issued an urgent weather warning as severe and damaging gusts battered counties nationwide.
The entire country was even placed on a status yellow wind and rain alert"
Also there is a wind sock visible 2:18 seconds on the videos
Not surprised. I'm a bit of an outdoorsman. I can tell by the trees and bushes that there were stiff and gusty winds. When entire bushes and tree limbs without leaves are moving, you've got strong winds. I would expect the wind sock to be straight out.
Yes and the windsock is clearly fully deflected too. But I guess that kind of information doesn't generate enough outrage. Disappointing stuff really.
@@skyflyerdan it’s not about outrage. Kelsey is the most fair pilot UA-camr on the platform (rivaled by mentour pilot). He admits his own mistakes all the time. This is definitely not a clickbait outrage channel.
@@thepapschmearmd Indeed. I have watched this channel for years so I'm well aware Kelsey is very respectable. It's not my intention to lump him in with clickbait channels. However, I do still find this video a little disappointing because it rather unfairly omits some critical information (unintentionally I hope), which, while not an entirely mitigating factor, does go to some lengths to help explain this unstable landing. Without this information, it creates an unfair narrative that calls into question the skills of the PIC or the safety of the airline. RYR have some of the most stringent SOPs going and an impeccable safety record, despite what a cursory glance of the comments here would suggest. Of course, I'm well aware that the Ryanair brand is inflammatory regardless, so perhaps there's no 'winning' in this regard.
I’ve flown a lot with Ryanair, and I know two of their pilots. The only time I had an exciting landing was going into Frankfurt Hahn one night in a thunderstorm, after three go-around the pilot landed it, with cabin lighting switched off and lightning flashing all around us. It was exciting, and the pilot greeted all of us as we left his aircraft. They do have a reputation for flying with minimum fuel and declaring fuel emergencies more often than other airlines, to get priority.
I bet at least one of the passengers in that flight had to change their pants immediately after it landed like that.
Great explanation! I learned a ton.
Seems like a perfect Ryanair landing.
did it on the first try?
Those pilots should have been forced to go back onto the runway with a divot tool and fix the divots they left behind.
Love all the content, learning a ton oh, just a thought or a suggestion oh, have you ever thought about doing a couple episodes on the somewhat popular show airplane repo? Reality versus television
"ask me how I know..." perfect Kelsey. Great episode!
Only time I've ever been afraid on a plane was Ryanair into Dublin - it smashed into the runway so hard it felt more like a crash than a landing the collective intake of breath of passengers was very audible.
Former navy carrier pilot, probably
@@nzkshatriya6298I hope no navy pilots have to fly for this airline.
@@nzkshatriya6298 a cadet in training, more probably. Or a fresh FO.

Ryanair are rather well known for 'hard' landings- been on them a few times and always slightly scary.
More of those videos please! 🥰
I've flown Airlines for over 40 years. I started out flying MD-80's, then when McDonald Douglas folded, I retrained in 737's & have mostly flown them ever since & I'll retire flying '737's, because I'm retiring in about a month. You are right on in everything you said.
I have a feeling that the first, terrible landing was Probably A Young Flight Officer just trying to get experience on The Yoke. We were all there once upon a time. I'm sure that there was a long discussion in The Cockpit about that Landing!
In The Second Landing, I wouldn't venture to say who was on the Yoke on that one, but I was taught that If You Bounce Once, That's Okay, but if you bounce twice, Go Around. I agree that as it was, you could recover from that Touchdown, but either way, that was a HARD Landing! I saw a video from a Passenger of A 737 fighting a Crosswind on Landing actually Scape A Right Wing On The Runway, Sending Sparks Flying, but they chose to TOGA. Regardless of who was on The Yoke, I'll bet there was some very serious discussion that went on after that incident!
This week they had a Right Gear Fire on The Runway at "Hotlanta," Hartsfield. I don't know anymore about it than that, but it shut 9L down for quite a while.
I can see the captain on the Ryanair flight turning to the young inexperienced FO and saying: " I think on this landing you can take control of.... THE YOKE" 😬😂
Noted you are retiring in one month. Congratulations to you on a long and successful journey. Quite something to fly such an amazing aircraft. All the best and thank you for the comments.
@@ianhart356 Thank You! It's been a fun ride...🙂
ryan air from what i can truly say with full honestly is a airline
I remember a rough approach into Newcastle airport a few years ago, the landing was very hard.
When I went to Rome in 2009, Ryan Air from East Midlands to Champiro, the pilot took off like a rocket both times. Long roll out, then whoosh!! We climbed so fast it stuck us to the seats. Then, both landings were identical too, dumped down and one wing almost scraping the ground.
Honestly doesn’t look too bad by Ryan Air standards and considering the bad weather they deal with. One 737 landing I was on it hit so hard bins popped open and I was expecting the gear to shoot through the floor.
They are exceptionally tough aircraft.
I would have elite status with Ryanair if they'd have a frequent flyer program, so I really do lots of flights with them, but never had any issues really. They have an incredible amount of flights every day, so this could happen here or there.
In 1962, my Father, an Air Force pilot in full uniform, and our family were flying to a new duty station in Bermuda. The airplane had a very rough landing in Atlanta and as we were exiting the airplane, the pilots were standing in the door to the cockpit. When Dad got in front of them, he told the captain "You are buying the coffee today". The captain looked embarrassed and nodded.
Great video, as usual, Kelsey❤
74 Gear... A class above the rest.. #1
Do you have merch? I'd like a motivational t shirt that says, "Keep the blue side up."
Wow, the right main gear on that easyJet plane! Especially when shown in slow motion you can see that it gets slammed to the left and then it wobbles violently back and forth. There must be some huge forces being applied to that landing gear.
Hey Kelsey, Thanx for all your videos. You answered some questions for me. My dad was a WWII pilot and he always used the phrase, “I didn’t know whether to scream, or wind my watch”. Never could understand that phrase,got it now!! Coincidentally, his name was Bill Kelsey😊
With their business model, Ryanair would charge you extra for that landing, due to the additional excitement value they've given you! 💰
In MSFS I typically fly smaller GA aircraft like the 208B Grand Caravan or a TBM 930. The difference in perspective in the flight deck of a 747-8 is kind of incredible to wrap your head around and I always end up touching down sooner than I'm expecting because you're just so high. It's kind of crazy, but I know I would get used to it with enough time and practice just like I have on the other aircraft.
Great video Kelsey!
Kelsey, during the flare, i think the tail is actually going down & causes the nose to point up (doesn't really climb) vs the nose going up.
Incredible how Ryanair is able to leverage leading edge aviation technology and still put everybody on the edge of their seats.
I mean, this is what you get with shit tier budget airlines. It's not like these guys are hiring competent pilots.
@@IkLms11actually they do
They have to meet standards
@@gamma_dablam only if those are actually enforced.
@@IkLms11You have no idea what you're talking about. Don't take the Ryanair memes so seriously, I've flown with them over a dozen of times in the last few years and had 0 issues.
