    Madeira is very beautiful island - I can recommend it to everyone. But our second landing there was really something. We spent 30 minutes circling around, made 5 laps and when we finally landed it was like rollercoaster - wind 19knots, limit that day was 20 knots. I admired the pilots back then and this video is giving me chills.

      Thankfully when I first went to Madeira in 1991 I didn't know about the airport's reputation. The second time I didn't know too much either. On my second trip the flight out was delayed by over an hour I think because of a technical issue, possibly to do with the brakes? It was an old BA (or GB airways?) 737 with the little engines.

      For your information, the airport is on the edge of the coast at sea level and quickly rises approximately 250 feet in height, which is why the GPWS count drops suddenly, because from one second to the next it goes from being 350 feet above sea level. height at ground and sea level at the same time at airport runway level, which causes the aircraft to lose meters of approach to the ground, but the aircraft does not lose altitude itself, but what changes is the ground level, In this case it passes over the ocean, which is the minimum level, the famous sea level, and suddenly, the level rises almost 250 feet high and therefore the aircraft activates its GPWS at 300, 200, 50, 40 , etc. I hope you understand and that also when you see the radar which, Weather is SET, you realize that the weather is very adverse therefore this landing, saying RETARD four times, was, SMOOTH and excellently performed, a round of applause to the PM and PF (Pilot Monitoring and Pilot Flight).
