He did select reverse idle. You can see him pull up on the reversers at time 2:44, he just left them at idle. That actually provides a fair amount of slowing, but I'm with the captain.....adding power in reverse wouldn't have hurt!
That must be scary for the first couple of times. Flying blind knowing that the slightest mistake can take you into a building or terrain and having to put so much trust put into the ILS and autopilot system.. Like somebody else has said, it must be an absolute relief to see those runway lights.
AndyJay15 they don’t start a land like this unless they’ve got all independent autopilots standing by as backups. The accuracy and precision of their GPS data must meet extremely strict requirements. If they lose one of the backups, they abort (even if the main AP is still working) If their location GPS accuracy falls below the line, they abort. Basically this is SO watertight, so over the top safe that they don’t really have a real reason to be scared. I mean I would be! But it would be irrational. They don’t attempt this unless the chance of failure is as good as 0.
@@johnmacward isn't the ils based on radio frequencies and not GPS . The gps might only be slightly off when intercepting the ILS but even with that as soon as it's capture the ils system corrects your position to be lined up with the runway
I figure it's hard to come by, but I particularly like this kind of video because it is very educational as well. The setting of course is beautiful as well, with this low vision, night landing. A rare thing to find on UA-cam, really ;).
Click upload notifications, some Airbus videos on the way. Which I just prefer over the Boing, in my opinion. With that being said, the 777 is a fantastic aircraft
@@AviationHubOfficial Just asking a question nothing personal. Simulator or not the challenge remains. The image around time index 2:35 and being able to show recordings of so many aspect of the flight made me wonder.
There was idle reverse thrust, so the reversers on the engine were opened providing idle power - enough to decel the aircraft for sure. When he asked about no reverse thrust he meant actually increasing the power above idle. In most cases, on a dry runway, idle reverse is enough. Engaging reverse thrust is reserved mostly for wet and/or short runways. Also, I'm not an engineer but i believe it is better for the aircraft in the long term to use as little reverse thrust as possible due to the high fuel consumption, engine wear, and risk of damage (not to mention noise regulations). Brake wear is obviously costly but is controlled by using the smallest autobrake setting.
I think he said mainly letters and parcels that need to be delivered quickly. So yeah iPhones probably... Never thought of that! 50 tons of Apple gear wouldn't surprise me tbh
The captain is the PIC (Pilot In Command) even if he is not the PF (Pilot Flying) at the time. And the responsibility to taxi the plane to and from the runway is always the Captains. This is why the switchover here is done as they decel to around 70kts as the the plane begins to become slow enough to vacate. Similarly, if the first officer is the Pilot Flying, the captain will taxi, line up on the runway, and even set takeoff thrust before saying "you have control" to the first officer who then takes over. If Joe had landed, there wouldn't have been a switchover here. See: ua-cam.com/video/TbppXMGrsvw/v-deo.htmlm
Most likely no tiller on FO side. Airbus' typically have a tiller on both sides. So you'll fine the FO taxies as well. PF/PM role commences the second you walk on to the flight deck.
The FO did not engage thrust reversers and the captain seemed unaware of the decision. Is this normally a task that needs to be cleared with the captain?
He set them to idle thrust, which is the norm in almost all situations. Actually engaging the reverse above idle (which he didn't do) is something that would have to be briefed. And this is almost exclusively banned at night for noise reasons. Either way, this was obviously not covered in the briefing.
Uncle Ruckus it is. The FO used idle reverse thrust. On dry runways, idle or full reverse will give the same result due to the way auto brake works. But on contaminated runways, like the snow covered one here, full reverse can give better braking performance. But at pilot’s discretion, there is no need to go beyond idle reverse if braking action is good.
They stated minimums of the corresponding CAT I approach, and I was hesitant to disagree with them seeing as they are flying the approach and I'm sitting at a computer.
@@AviationHubOfficial the minimums for CAT 2 landing can be between 200 and 100. Or maybe the RVR was still more than 550m according to reports and allowed a CAT1. But either way 200 feet are acceptable even for a CAT 2
Kristian Bodlay they are moving around exactly as much as you’d expect from a very big plane (that is harder for wind to disturb) on final approach, which means they’re going very slow relatively speaking. Less turbulence at lower airspeeds. They are definitely moving about though it doesn’t exactly look comfortable!
Nah, it's a scene out of the movie, "Airplane" with Leslie Nielson. They cut-out the part where the co-pilot is a blow-up doll, and it blows the young pilot. You should watch that movie.
Why not let the autopilot land like that in all weather? Even in perfectly sunny weather, I see most disconnect the autopilot 5 miles from the runway or more and hand fly it in. You are then opening up the human mistake element by doing that. Landing on the wrong runway, landing on the taxiway...the autopilot will take you all the way down to the flare out with zero mistakes. Seems like that would be mandatory.
SixStringLove Guy it depends on the airline on the video you watched. Lufthansa seem to be okay with their pilots flying the glide by hand. I have a relative who is an A320 captain for one of the UKs/Europe’s biggest airlines, I can’t say, but their standard procedures are AP on at 800ft after take off (4/5 seconds after rotate) and AP off as LATE as physically possible, no 5 mile hand flown approaches. Manual thrust is also prohibited. But the pilot must physically flare and land the plane unless it’s a foggy mandatory CAT III Like you say this is almost surely to eliminate as much human error as possible. And to minimise workload. Also it’s worth realising that they are being filmed, and if a camera wasn’t there would they still be hand flying?
Its important to stay current on manual flying skills. With the increase in aviation accidents caused by poor handling skills, due to increased use of automation - it is advisable (and has been recommended by Boeing as well - as written in the Flight Crew Training Manual FCTM) to fly the aircraft manually in situations when workload permits (considering airspace, altitude - RVSM/NAT-HLA, weather, fatigue, etc).
Pelle Bibow Exactly, like a simple departure in relatively quiet airspace is the perfect opportunity to stay manual till even >FL100. But for that I’m assuming long haul. However your company, not Boeing or Airbus write the SOPs. The one I referred to in my last comment is from a basically all short haul carrier where there’s multiple landings per day, a high rate of paperwork/planning per minute - this would explain their mandatory AP policy. I can’t name the airline but it would be Easy to work it out.
For what I know the autopilot (ILS) landing is the one You are unlikely to experience. If the weather doesn't requires it, it is only forced by airline (tells pilots when and how many times a year/month they have to do an ILS landing) Also not every airport has the ILS system.
I obviously recommend watching the whole video, but RWY in sight @ 2:13
My favorite checklist "did we do everything?" 3:54

kid nailed that landing. i feel old.
Everyone in love with the runaway lights but me: those cockpit lights and screens omg LOVE IT !!!
Yes, feels like spaceship

I agree fully, sounds like Mr Calm :-)
The captain is Joe Moser and he flew for LTU...of course PAX.
He retired earlier this year.
The next full feature PilotsEye documents the very same Joe Moser’s final flight for Aerologic. November 18 I think.
He definitely has a smooth sexy voice. If he's retired now, maybe he could narrate stuff for fun.
always love watching any B777 landing or takeoff...always a crowd pleaser..weather was just insane on this approach..they did well here..FABULOUS
That was amazing...great POV for those who do not experience this type of flight up front !
German pilots don’t need reverse trust on landings 😏🇩🇪
@iRacecraft exactly haha
one of them had such a cool voice! :P
Really enjoyed this one. Nice performance all around.
Thank heavens for instruments! Great video 👍🏻
Truly the best view of white rabbit light on UA-cam! That’s what I was looking for! ❤️
2:40 „BUTTERRR““ 😂😂😂😂
Love this. Still have troubles setting up auto landing on MS sim. Not a pilot but still love it
these 2 guys are the best pilots ever.
Oh god! You have to have a lot of trust on the ATC. Wonderful job on their part.
The pilots navigated the approach with their instruments
Smooth landing!
Visually beautiful and exciting.
Smooth as butter. Great job.
At first sight I had exchanged it for a simulator session!
Excelent job, guys 👍
Sehr schoene Landung - scary nothing to see and trust your instruments. Very well done!
Professionalism @ its peak
Amazing video!
Amazing!!!
Nice landing. No reversals at all!!!

Why the sounds of the ILS markers are inaudible?

@@AviationHubOfficial the GPS accuracy has nothing to do with ILS. In fact, even without GPS we could still do a fully automatic landing.
@@airflo_muc IT does, a HIGH GPS accuracy is required for a CATIII even if at the end the ILS is what takes over.

It looks like a scene from a movie, it’s so dark and then all those lights, it didn’t look real (although I know it is).
Fantastic ''pair'' of crew..

doesn't it stress too much the brakes?

This video makes me want to be Pilot.
Any clue wich kind of cargo these aircraft are hauling from Asia - like iPhones?
I think he said mainly letters and parcels that need to be delivered quickly. So yeah iPhones probably... Never thought of that! 50 tons of Apple gear wouldn't surprise me tbh
“Tell me before you switch off the autopilot”
What console is this?
Imagine one of the pilot go "man i hope the runway is where we are descending in middle of the fog at 100ft...
I guess if the runway is long enough, or wind direction , you dont need to reverse thrust.
how come he didn't say "continue" when minimum was reached?
actually he did
why do pilots change over controls once they have landed?
The captain is the PIC (Pilot In Command) even if he is not the PF (Pilot Flying) at the time. And the responsibility to taxi the plane to and from the runway is always the Captains. This is why the switchover here is done as they decel to around 70kts as the the plane begins to become slow enough to vacate.

Thanx for the full explanation.
Most likely no tiller on FO side. Airbus' typically have a tiller on both sides. So you'll fine the FO taxies as well. PF/PM role commences the second you walk on to the flight deck.
The same captain of Ltu airlines
so geil
Sooi relaxed
ILS CAT III?
if this guy is flew passenger flight, when he says "this is your captain speaking" everyone will wake up if they were sleeping
It's a training simulation flight
I thought reverse turbine was mandatory upon touching land
Why don't need reverse thrust?
They did, reverse idle
Noise reduction at night
The FO did not engage thrust reversers and the captain seemed unaware of the decision. Is this normally a task that needs to be cleared with the captain?

And this is almost exclusively banned at night for noise reasons. Either way, this was obviously not covered in the briefing.
At what height was the landing gear brought down?
0:56 somewhere between 2500ft and 3000ft
1.00 minute
Wow Id crap myself!!
incredible job?
Why pilots choose to land without reverse thrust on many occasions ? Does it burn too much kerosen ? Does it wear the engine ?
it was simply not needed. the runway is long enough
also for noise abatement as it was night time.
Approach lights were visible at 300 ft. It's not that low vis. Above cat I visibility.
Shut the fuck up!!
Lol alright mate, calm down.
are you a pilot?
yep
Schones navitimer xD
This is just a normal landing, notting Special.
Incorrect, it is a very special video. Normal procedures yes, but a great example of technology and professionalism coming together.
if it's not boeing, i'm not going!
That's a dumbass comment. Sorry.
but I can landing any plane manual and any weather, heehhee hihihi hehee

They trust their instruments. Seeing the ILS is like seeing the runway.

Nope. Real approach to Leipzig airport, in eastern Germany.
