This is why I have the absolute greatest respect for pilots, and while we in the back are either sleeping, chatting, watching a movie, listening to music or just worried about the bumps being tense these men and are just on it making sure that we have the safest of flights and the vast majority of people never truly comprehend all the work they do, to use it’s just a flight, it’s so much more than that, I personally always make sure to thank each pilot when I get off because they are the ones that keep us alive and well. Thank you, thank all of you, believe me, you’re appreciated even if people don’t tell you enough, this passenger most definitely does. You’re the best.
As a pilot, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate hearing this. I’ve been seeing so many people lately claiming that we do nothing, everything is automated and we just turn on the autopilot and kick our feet up, but none of that is true. I’m so happy to see a passenger acknowledge our hard work, thank you very much!
@@gustavovarela8119 There is an old story in aviation about a captain who said that 99% of the time he was overpaid but for the other 1% you could not pay him enough.

Perfectly normal. If we are just button pusher, you can join us to push buttons, why not genius? Ps my aeronautical experience? Let’s say that I fly the 73 for one of the big 4 in the us. Good night keyboard lion
I fly all the time....CO to FL and back. I always thank the pilots and crew for keeping me safe. I have landed in Denver a number of times during a white out blizzard and these guys are PROS! It about trusting what you SEE on the instruments, not what you "feel". Great big thanks to all the 3 Stripe and 4 Stripe guys in the cockpit ! Cheers !
I trained as an avionic instrumentation technician in the late 80’s mainly working on 60’s British and American technology, Altimeters, Airspeed indicators, Flight directors……pretty much all instrumentation. I was acutely aware that in conditions like this this equipment was literally the difference between life and death!!! We worked in a clean room environment, it was spotless in there. Everything I did I triple checked and once instrumentation was repaired it was tested fully and then tested again. Glass cockpits were just appearing and eventually my skills were no longer needed. Fantastic seeing pilots using this equipment in the most trying conditions!!
Arrived in Denver on Christmas eve after deadheading out of Lincoln Nebraska on a 727. Snowing to beat the band. Touched down and hit a crosswind gust which allowed a nice view going slightly skewed on the runway. Full reversers and light on the brakes and she straightened up with a little rudder correction. What a ride.
This is one Romanian airline pilots landing on Otopeni Bucharest airport. Always Tarom had fantastic pilots. Thank you very much for sharing with us some of your experiences
Computers flying the plane! Can't you tell? The ILS system un the aircraft will line up with the runway to land the plane! The ATC has picked up the plane location through the radar signals. You can hear the trim wheel repeatedly adjusting the planes attitude
@@saffy4352If you know the Romanian language, at minute 5:43 you will hear the first officer saying in English "Manual flight", then the commander said "No, no, why land like that when you have selected both autopilot's!". Then the first officer said "Because of the weather conditions" probably relying more on him than on the autopilot. Then when they saw the central navigation lights, the captain told him that he had visibility and could follow the manual landing procedure, and the second officer disconnected the autopilot and landed the plane manually!
@@saffy4352Another frustrated person with no significant job trying to convince others that anyone could do this. The amount of knowledge you need in order to be able to decide and instruct the airplane what to do and when, is very vast, yet you are trying to minimize it.
A very interesting view of how the pilots navigate in conditions few passengers could comprehend. These professionals are a credit to the aviation industry. Hard to believe all they have is instrumentation and radio whilst flying in the worst conditions.
Awesome stuff, total admiration for these commercial pilots, smart, brave, confident and skilled, 100s of lives aboard every flight and they deliver us safely every time. Thank you to all pilots for your dedication to perfection.
Imagine returning to a foggy RAF airfield from a night raid in WW2 in a possibly flak-damaged bomber, with no ILS, no simulator training, very basic radar, no co-pilot, and only flares lit to see where the runway was.
I flew for 3 years as a regional airline pilot in the BE1900 C model. No FMS, no autopilot, steam gauges...Hand flying +_ 100' in the clouds sometimes for hours...Raw data ILS to mins many times. That was the sharpest I ever was...
I have done this so many times flying into the Channel Islands (UK) at night where very thick fog is a standard meteorological condition right down to the deck. First sighting of the bright runway lights is always a great reward for your intense concentration. Practice makes perfect.
Gotta hate it when you are all set up and on profile, then hear the words 'Go around!'... especially in this weather! Very interesting to watch. Great landing!
Beautiful! This video shows precisely why I consider the Instrument Rating to be the most exciting of all. I’m a hobbyist pilot and don’t get too many IMC to minimums, but when I do, my heart pumps harder and faster every time.
Totally agree this is what we always need to see in cockpit - Pilots working together, keeping their eyes on checklists & focusing on flying the plane. I also want to shout out to the engineers and maintenance crew that make all this even possible!
When I was a kid flying, an applause for a fine landing (or any landing) was a standard part of the flying experience. i think we should bring it back. Don't be shy to applaud these guys for bringing us down safely. Its no small feat. I always thank the crew.
Thank God Captain and 1st Officer, that you guys fly mainly through your instrument panel in the Cockpit and your visual is not as necessary, God Speed Gentlemen 🙏
Just curious what is that clicking and whurring sound in the background, Some kind of automatic trim control? Anyway hats off and mucho respect to those pilots.
Hi. The whirring noise you are asking about is the sound of the electric pitch trim (elevator trim) in motion either by the autopilot or the flying pilot. Two large manual trim wheels will be rotating by each side of the thrust lever quadrant every time pitch trimming is taking place. It also allows the pilots to turn the wheel to trim manually if the electric trim motor were to fail and it lets the pilots know when trimming is taking place. It is typical on many Boeing aircraft.
Amazing video! Would it be okay if I used part of this clip in my next episode? I will ensure full credit is given in the video and description. Thank you.
Of all the things going on, I keep finding myself obsessed with knowing what that sound is, the occasional one that sounds like someone pumping a bicycle pump. My brain won't let it go. Is it part of the cockpit air circulation system? Is it an air freshener like you see in public bathrooms? Someone please tell me so I can continue with my life.
That is the noise of the auto trim wheel that constantly keeps the the aircraft steady and stabilized in it's flight path easing pressure on the controls. The trim constantly adjusts with airspeed.
I've never flown and won't. I've driven in total whiteouts but at like 40 mph. That had me on edge. I don't even understand how pilots can do this and it's like no big deal. Crazy and amazing what people can do
In case you're wondering, autopilot does alot more work usually on foggy/low visibility landings, sometimes it lands the plane but that's rare. Howevermthe flight screens you see can guide pilots, it shows the speed, altitude, flight plan and radar, and they can also set their instrument landing system to guide them to a runway. All airliner pilots are certified to fly IFR (only using instruments and not being able to see anything outside]
quick question, isn’t the pilot flying the only one who should be controlling the direction/speed/mode etc? i noticed in the go around it was a mix of both? was just curious!! another great video 🙌
What the captain is doing in this go around is wrong, there is no discipline any more in the cockpit, this is a bad cockpit CRM and below standard performance. This video is compromising Tarom’s Training standard.
If flying manual the PNF handle all adjustments directed from the PF, unles the PNF is busy then the PF can manipulate ancillary controls as desired for safe flight!
"The first landing of a scheduled U.S. passenger airliner using ILS was on January 26, 1938, as a Pennsylvania-Central Airlines Boeing 247-D flew from Washington, D.C., to Pittsburgh and landed in a snowstorm using only the ILS system."
damn i thought the thing went and done crashed on landing. awesome piloting. i wanted so desperately to become a pilot but omg, i would be too busy playing with all them lights and buttons and knobs.
unless I missed the Tx, they waited almost 10-15 seconds before acknowledging the go around and then starting the process - also I did not heard a readback of the clearance to land on 08
If they were going to impact the ground, the aeroplane has EGPWS which would 1) turn both pilot and copilot screens to the coloured ground contour screen and 2) begin yelling audible warnings to pull the hell up.

Când someone explain what was the reson for the the go arround, IT was stabile and they didn't hit minimums!
Traffic blocking the runway with a technical problem was the reason.
Amazing good job guys.
Nice job Guys!!!!!!
I would have a heart attack. Well done. Thank you to all pilots around the world.
Great video awesome team work.
is it normal to take that long to start the go around after receiving the atc call? Not criticizing just curious.
Perfectly acceptable particularly when not close to the runway.
There was no hurry, it’s better to take a moment and get it right
Amazing!!
Thanks!!
Boeing is always cool dont know why.....
What was it about the go around?
What is that swishing whirring noise we hear prior to landing?
Trim
i just love the sound of the trim wheel
That's why u need live pilots in the cockpit
Autopilot and pilots working hard on that approach!
Wonderful❤😍
Impresionante aterrizaje después de un escape. Maravillosos Comandante y primer oficial.
It's just unbelievable that planes can fly in such conditions, with no one on board seeing anything !
So much knob twisting and button pressing from both pilots simultaneously. It’s amazing how they don’t step on each other’s toes or hands.
Theyre flying a buss basically. Heavy load. Better to dive feet first than head in.
Where was the go-around? I musta missed it.
right at 1 min atc tells them to go around
You could see the pilot move the gear up for the go around
Nice job guys :)
superb landing!
they are simply amazing ,how in the world can they see,that would scare the crap out of me ,you cannot see anything
Respect 😯
Thanks

Muy bueno comandante felicitaciones
Great!
What was the reason for the go around?
I believe the tower said another aircraft would not be able to clear the runway in time.
EDDM Munich?
Training flight? Who's pilot flying?
This is madness.... 😮😮😮
Woooooooooow 😧😧😧😧 congratulations for the pilots 👏 very good. I live in Brazil, and here doesn't have this condition
Approach and go around were completely on Autopilots (Dual A/P armed for automatic landing). Which is a safe way to fly in these conditions.
Is he hand flying based on the cross?
Complimenti to pilot s
I’m surprised that the trim wheels aren’t spinning more.😊
Awesome!!!
One question: Why is he not setting G/A thrust, but only 80% N1?
A friend of mine had to do a approach showing a 600 ‘ RVR and O cloud base with minimums at 30 feet with clouds at 200 feet.
If they were going to impact the ground, the aeroplane has EGPWS which would 1) turn both pilot and copilot screens to the coloured ground contour screen and 2) begin yelling audible warnings to pull the hell up.
When aircraft land they impact the ground
Wow. Total respect.
Well done Gentlemen!!
