As a fearful flyer, I love this channel because it reminds me that the men and women up front REALLY DO know what they're doing. I never actually doubted that... but this just gives me comfort. I don't like any form of transport (trains, subways, cars) when I'm not in control. Add a fear of heights to that mix and that makes flying a truly fearful event for me. Thanks, Captain Joe! These videos are therapeutic for fearful fliers like me. I still do avoid flying whenever I can, but each flight has gotten easier and easier.
Just tried to land an Airbus A320-216 in KPHL on Runway 27L. First configured the A320 for Gear down and Flaps 3, then fully established on ILS 09R; then at the around 1200 ft, executed at 45⁰ turn then I followed the procedure, as explained by you. And I was finally able to land at RWY 27L. Thank you Captain!!! ✈✈✈
A few years ago my wife and I were on a flight that did a circling approach into acapulco intl. A lot of the passengers were quite a bit put off by the low level 180* turn right before landing. I had never heard of this sort of approach either, tbh, and from the passenger windows looking down, the ground did seem very close indeed to be doing a turn like that. Thanks for the great video explaining the procedure!
"Experience the flight once, and your eyes will forever be glued to the sky. Once you've been there, you're doomed to miss it for the rest of your life." ✈️❤️ A very interesting and informative video. It's a pleasure to study aviation like this. 🎓👮🏻🤝👮🏻📚
Great video! Just a couple of notes: a) At Circling MDA, it is 45º for 30 seconds, b) The circling is flown in TRK FPA so, no need for wind component math and c) thanks for using a TAP aircraft!! Great job!
I really enjoy your videos, and I've been watching a long time. The small details that show your competency is how in the WCA you show that the units of kts cancel out. Treating your units as an inseparable part of any calculation is a great way to ensure you've done the math right.
Thank you for an awesome tutorial!! I personally favor the B738 over the A21N (A321neo), but your tutorial is still applicable & is easily adaptable to the 737-ng series. Love, love, love these vids!! 😎👍
keep it simple. downwind timing =HAA X 3. V/S on final = 1/2 G/S. Try to plan the circling with as much headwind as possible on base leg (lower G/S to avoid going through final).
Awesome guys! One thing I missed at the "Landing no blue" callout. The SOP I learnt was like this > PM: "Landing no blue, autothrust" PF: "Speed" or "Off" depending on what is set.
There was a recent change in the checklist. Previously there was autothrust, autobrake etc. Now its just ECAM memo. I'm guessing you did your sim using the older checklist.
Haha how funny is it to see Pascal! He started with me at Tui on the Boeing 737 and now we both fly Airbus for another company, still from Frankfurt ;) Grüße!
In the wca calculations you have to use acute angles between course and wind direction. It follows that considered angle is not angle between 326 and 190 (=136), but angle between 326 and 010. Whitch is 44°.
As already stated, when figuring out wind correction angles using that method you use the acute wind angle, which is the less than 90° angle between the wind line & the planes course line. Course line is the heading out the front of the plane, and heading minus 180 out of the back of the plane. So 326/146. Then wind of 190 - 146 = 44. Or 326 - 190 = 136, which isn't an acute angle, so you use 180 - 136 = 44, to get the acute angle. Edit: this is always something I've had to use pencil & paper for but I'm guessing if you fly enough it becomes second nature.
TAP ❤️ In May I made my first flights in my life. Warsaw -> Lisboa -> Funchal Madeira and back. I was extremely excited because I flew a lot of A320 Neo in MSFS and "knew" the plane on which I flew 😀
Captain Joe and Pascal, that waa very informative! Totally enjoy learning about aviation. I LOVE learning!! Really appreciate all you do!! Thanks!! 💖✈✈💖
Really cool collaboration video of two great pilots, a very cool video of course with a nice soft and cool audio sound. Great job Captain Joe, always only the best videos you post, you are really great.
I'm not a pilot for anything else than rc-planes - but I find aviation videos interesting. While watching this video, where you have to change headings etc - how do you handle the headings? Are all true headings, or do you have to handle magnetic headings, compass deviation etc ? In the maritime world we have to calculate all this when taking certifications - most of it is quickly forgotten as navgation ais like electronic maps etc use true headings from gps , but it is still a thing we have to learn.
All headings are magnetic. In smaller planes where you use physical maps, the pilot does the variation corrections. But in airliners like this, they mostly use GPS along with the ground nav aids (which are also magnetic)
Nice video, might be worth adding the difference between TERPS and ICAO obstacle protected area. For CAT C aircraft in ICAO you are protected to approx 4.2nm from each rwy end with circling height of approx 1000 AGL. In FAA Terps its much less, around 2.7 off the top of my mind.
Thanks for this video Captain. In case of GA, how does the RWY01 nav path applies to follow the procedure as the secondary FP is active, with RWY19 ? Thank you in advance for your response.
This is the best aviation channel. Really great content. I've binge watched all videos in less than two months without even knowing 😂. I'm not a pilot but I love captain Joe. Keep it up sir!! 💯
Smooth for someone that dont fly the a/c anymore ;). Few remarks why do you ask for the landing cl on the ILS with the a/c still in F3 ? You have 1 blue on your ECAM memo. This segment is needed to be fly F3, Gear down + Spoilers armed, but the checklist needs to be done on short final later on. I think you realised because you asked for it a second time. You can also presel the 45° HDG during descent to be ahead and pull when you level off. Imo it is not an early stab appr as the early stab requires to be at the FDP fully configured.
hatte ich auf Korsika, Calvi. Normaler Anflug von Norden, aber dann gings rechts am Flugplatz vorbei, 180° Linkskurve und aus der Kurve heraus direkt auf die Schwelle. Ich sass innen, perfekte Sicht. Einfach nur genial. Der Rest in der Kabine hat glaub ich gebetet ;-)
I never knew about all this crazy math and "procedure" behind an approach like this. I would imagine if you're visual with the RWY, you can just "feel it" and everything comes instinctively, you kinda know when to turn and how fast to descend.
Hello captain joe, would you be able to make a video explaining the srilankan airline and British airways near miss incident that took place j in n the air a few days ago, I think you can explain it the best Thanks in advance
Seemed to be a lil bit tense procedure, even in a sim. Would luv to see a comparation of heart rate comparison between a sim procedure and a real world procedure.
@@flywithcaptainjoe i Just cant put my chips on any bet. At sim, even though all the imersive resources, deeply inside we know we are safe. BUT... at sim we would be executing procedures that arent part of a daily basis procedures....plus the pressure of an eventual checker. In tu other hand, in real life, we would have the safe sensation of doing something we are pretty used to... BUT... there is the pressure of a real life no-margin-for-errors state.
Hello, can anyone tell me what the rectangular corners are on the PFD when the airplane is on the ground? I remember reading about this somewhere but I forgot! Thanks :)
Captain Joe, just one question: can you confirm it is 45s and not 30s to turn wings level to proceed to the downwing leg? I am an A320 pilot and in my FCOMs company, it states 30s. For the rest, everything seems the same! By the way, I am a great fan of yours and great video!!
Captain Joe is back in the house (quite literally!). Another great video mate 👌

Sweet! If Amazon accidentally delivers an A320 AND I find myself needing to do a Circle To Land approach, I'm good!
This was lovely to watch, starting with IF training soon and I must say this video was very enlightening!
Please do a CAT III app next Captain.
U explained the circling approach perfectly in 30 secs! wonderful job!

100% correct !
I’m in tears Capt. Joe. Literally, seeing you being back in the A320 is like going back to your ancestral home after moving out.
Okay I'm curious how hard was it to jump back behind the controls of an A320 and fly it after flying the B747 for the last couple years?
Super easy, really enjoyed being back in the A320 seat. My SOP's are a little rusty when it comes to the A320, but I can still fly her :)
Cool. I kinda wondered if it's be like riding a bike (albeit a little more complicated) that once you know how you can jump back in pretty easily.

Someone asked you on instagram how comfortable you'd be flying an A320 again not that long ago, and now we're seeing this
keep it simple. downwind timing =HAA X 3. V/S on final = 1/2 G/S. Try to plan the circling with as much headwind as possible on base leg (lower G/S to avoid going through final).

I literally just started my Instrument Rating and we’re about to cover circling approaches. Couldn’t have timed this video better!
The best collab on UA-cam! Thanks for posting this one!
Awesome that you used that TAP scheme!
starting my instrument training soon so interesting seeing a circling approach
Happy to see u i like u r skills & laughter too
Great video captain thanks for all your help with these kind of videos good flights
Captain Joe for ever, appreciated nice tuto and well done 😎
Excelent technique, well done 👍🏻🛩️
As a 737-8H4 lover, the A320's are unique. But those smiles at the end puts a big one to mine! 🙂😁
A trend bar would be a nice feature on the A320 when turning onto final using the extended Centreline.
Liking this video without even watching yet. Just reading the title makes me excited.
Lovely video Joe I actually (And the flight Instructor) In Rand Airport South Africa tried it!
Well Done @Captain Joe, love your videos always and keep it up always!!
Haha how funny is it to see Pascal! He started with me at Tui on the Boeing 737 and now we both fly Airbus for another company, still from Frankfurt ;) Grüße!
Very nice video as always from the Cap. I felt that the view outside the cockpit was more cartoon like than i even find on home sims.
Hello Joe Could You Please make a Detailed Video about Tailstrikes Incidents🛩
Awesome video! I'm not a pilot yet and would really appreciate if you explained how the wind angle at 5:03 amounted to 44°
In the wca calculations you have to use acute angles between course and wind direction. It follows that considered angle is not angle between 326 and 190 (=136), but angle between 326 and 010. Whitch is 44°.
I'm stumped on that one 2 and I am a private pilot. Math doesn't check out.
As already stated, when figuring out wind correction angles using that method you use the acute wind angle, which is the less than 90° angle between the wind line & the planes course line. Course line is the heading out the front of the plane, and heading minus 180 out of the back of the plane. So 326/146.
Then wind of 190 - 146 = 44.
Or 326 - 190 = 136, which isn't an acute angle, so you use 180 - 136 = 44, to get the acute angle.
Edit: this is always something I've had to use pencil & paper for but I'm guessing if you fly enough it becomes second nature.

Great video Joe, could you quickly explain how you got 44° on the wind correction angle, I’m a little confused?? Thank you

Really cool collaboration video of two great pilots, a very cool video of course with a nice soft and cool audio sound. Great job Captain Joe, always only the best videos you post, you are really great.
can you please explain how you were able to find the wind angel of 44° from 190/10 wind and desired course of 326 ? 5:04
190+180-326=44
Finally I know what a circle-to-land exactly is, thanks!
Hoping to meet you one day captain joe and i can feel it coming to me to spent some time with my best teacher

In the maritime world we have to calculate all this when taking certifications - most of it is quickly forgotten as navgation ais like electronic maps etc use true headings from gps , but it is still a thing we have to learn.
Headings are mostly magnetic. One exception can think of is in high (polar) latitudes, where compasses go nuts, then "grid" reference is used.
All headings are magnetic. In smaller planes where you use physical maps, the pilot does the variation corrections. But in airliners like this, they mostly use GPS along with the ground nav aids (which are also magnetic)
I love these educational videos. More, please! Danke euch 🙂
Excellent video!! In what instance would you use this approach compared to a normal straight-in approach??
When you have an instrument approach only in one runway direction, but wind/performance limitations is favoring the other direction.
Great choice of airline👏👍👌
Thank you very much for this very good explanation of how it's done professionally. Very good!
Captain Joey go back to that old good days in Airberline . I hope it’s not confusing to fly A320 and 747 together 👍 Great job my captain

Captain Joe is flying Teófilo Braga’s TAP aircraft. 😊
Captain Joe, just one question: can you confirm it is 45s and not 30s to turn wings level to proceed to the downwing leg? I am an A320 pilot and in my FCOMs company, it states 30s. For the rest, everything seems the same! By the way, I am a great fan of yours and great video!!
Most probably the airline SOP Joe is referring to says 45 seconds instead of 30.
Ps I also checked my company FCOM SOP, it is also 30 seconds
Our FCTM (Flight Crew Trainings Manual) states 45 seconds. It can vary a little from airline to airline
I agree, it’s 30 sec and you want to activate secondary with the landing runway on downwind. He still had the ILS 01 in the box during landing.
Great video, this 45s to get to downwind leg is a standard ICAO PANS-OPS procedure? I can't find it anywhere, thanks
As per Joe from a comment he made prior, 45s is from the company FCTM
Really informative captain ..
Can we download the diagram shown in the beginning somewhere?
