      My thoughts too, my guess is it was perfectly safe. But the angle / perspective and zoom-lense made it look much closer. And I am sure that 3MOA also knows that perfectly well, but wanted us to comment - just like I do right now 🙈. But he deser es it, always fun to watch these clips 👍!

      Actually in some very busy airports apparently is not uncommon to see actually two planes on the runway (it shouldn't happen, but it does), one almost taking off and another one just landing... I think one of them was in Canada, where this is not very uncommon.

    As an air traffic control officer at Birmingham Airport, I would like you to apologise to Birmingham ATC for erroneously calling our professionalism into question, and I would like you to change the name of this video. In the clip shown, there was more than ample separation but thanks to a camera lens with a high focal length, they appeared closer. Whilst ICAO runway separation is not applied in the UK, in this instance the separation would have met the ICAO as well as UK CAA criteria.

      Agree, all you need is wheels off the runway by the time the arrival crosses the runway threshold. If you can't time it like that, you won't check out as a tower controller at most locations. This happens countless times a day. Very poor choice of title for this video.

      @@jmWhyMe - I can’t remember the exact wording, and the rules differ for different classes of aircraft, but there is a rule about the closeness of aircraft when landing. Large commercial airliners can be as close as 2500m, with one aircraft on the runway and their exit is assured, with the other aircraft landing. As for landing and taking off, the rule will be similar, with a similar separation.

    Between 380's takeoff and 777's landing, there's 20 secs or longer, so a distance of 6-7 kms at least. They are not close as they seem.

    The tabloid version of aviation short videos strikes again. Nothing unusual in the 1st video, perfectly compliant separation between departing and landing aircraft. You might also want to check the definition of a flock of birds. Hint: it means more than 1 bird.

    • @sailorman8668
      @sailorman8668 10 місяців тому

      Wake turbulence only starts to be generated by a departing aircraft from the time at which the nose is lifted on rotate.
      Considering that the landing aircraft will touchdown well before the rotate point, then wake turbulence is not an issue hear.
      However, if the landing aircraft goes around, then yes, flying through the wake turbulence of the A380 would be an issue.
      Obviously, the missed approach/go around procedure on this runway would entail a turn away from any potential wake turbulence issue.
