- Afternoon flight into London City Airport for runway 09. Approach is really amazing as we had to fly at a really low altitude due to traffics coming into London Heathrow airport right above us. It is a very busy approach as turns are very tight and there is so much to be aware of. Runway 09 is pretty short plus a glideslope of 5.5º at only 3.5 miles from the runway.
This is a *perfect* aviation video, no music, no hussle, great takes.
Thanks!

Gotta love youtube for giving us the opportunity to see something most of us will never experience. Thanks for posting.
Excellent video. No music ++. No overtalking ++. Subtitles ++. Makes the whole process clear and unnerving. Thank goodness I'm in the back.
Thanks Steve!
Thank you for the excellent subtitles. It really helps to understand what is happening at each point in the process.
Sarah Jones And you can see where some of the sights are like London Bridge, Parliament, etc. I like that!
Thanks ;)
Agreed - great subtitles. Thank you!
No over-editing, straight approach video, great view, accurate landing. A+.
So refreshing. A video that does just what it says on the tin. No waffle, no music and good titles keeping all informed. Nice job.
Hey, thanks for 'labeling' everything! As a Yank, I see some of the landmarks in MS FLT SIM and X-Plane, but seeing them IRL, is amazing and it is nice to see the real landmarks in real scale. I have a new respect for that approach.
Thanks Jack!
flown to this airport in a sim without proper briefing and got caught by ap not being able to follow the ils. Thought it was a bug with nav data, but you showed that this is a real thing.
;)
yeah ;)
I worked at LCY for KLM GS and had the pleasure to fly in the cockpit many times with some great pilots of VLM, Crossair and KLMuk Some great landings and a great time with the KLM GS family, How I miss them all.
Scenic but scary. Surprised how much time on the approach is over city buildings, etc. And yea, that glideslope is pretty steep! Reminds me when I was stationed at Tan Son Nhut Air Base, Saigon in the late 60s. All aircraft did combat landings with a high approach, lights turned off before going down the glideslope at night, lights turned on and a radical flareout at touchdown. This was really impressive when the civilian contract airlines (707s) did this. Passengers were briefed on this.

Absolutely true, looked across to the window opposite me and saw Buckingham Palace perfectly framed in it....!
I landed there in a Dash-8 coming from Bruxelles in the early 90's, I can't remember the year but I remember we landed in the opposite direction due to strong winds. Landing towards the Canary Wharf was astonishing.
An extremely well done video with none other than a Bombardier Dash 8 Q400. 2 x PW 150a, cruise at 415 mph. A truly unique aircraft. Proudly Canadian.
Yes! Very Canadian hehe Thanks for your comment Frank!
Thank you for posting this. … Fascinating to see the view from the pilot's perspective. … Being a devout Anglophile, there is the added bonus that the flight landed at my favorite city. … Great to watch.
Thanx for this. When flying into LCY, would always keep an eye out for the tower block where I once lived and was thrilled to see it in this video. Brings back memories.
I land and maintain glideslope in simulators using my very favourite instrument (PAPI) .
Hats off to the person who came up with the idea of PAPI lights.
No crashes for me (manual landing) after understanding what the lights mean.
Now that *is* a steep approach, you were practically standing it on its nose. Great video, thanks!
Sweet view! I know just enough about airplanes to be able to follow your comments. Thanks for the ride Capt.
Prior to 9/11 I was fortunate enough to be invited into the cockpit during the landing of my flight from Aberdeen to London City airport. It was an amazing and truly unforgettable experience.
Having worked for Barclays and KPMG on the Wharf, sat in those offices watching the aircraft fly over, this video has given me quite a perspective change on the flight/approach. Excellent video!
You should film them so I can see how you see us ;)
Back when cameras were honest experiences… Thankyou for this history.
Thank for the cockpit view for this technical approach.
I have a bit of an affinity with the Dash 8, living within 5 min of EGHI, I also fly C42 around EGHI CTA / CTR from Lower Upham, (Bishops Waltham Flying Area) So encounter Dash 8 visual and Solent LARS comms quite regularly. Also flown as passenger many times, and have come to hold a deep respect for this type.
Thanks again,
Jules.
Thanks a lot for your comments, I love EGHI too ;)
I love these planes... an aircraft of the past, but now of the future as they are going back into production.
This is surely one of the best Aviaition Videos I have ever seen! Thanks SAL Pilot!!!
Thanks ;)
Made this appr . in a BA Embrear 190 together with my grangson from Rotterdam in 2017 for a weekend London , very exiting!
I've done that descent on a flight from Exeter. It really is fantastic.
Beautiful approach to London City Airport with spectacular view of the city. I have never been to London so this was a sightseeing trip for me. Very enjoyable. Look forward to more videos!
If you ever decide to go there, don't miss this airport!
Low over the City, I never saw one landing in the city when I have been there. A steeper than normal approach ,fantastic video!
The runway used to be warehouses. They were knocked down and the rubble cleared and flattened. I watched the first aircraft land on the strip to see if it was possible to build an airport there. That was in the 80's, I think it was a Dash 7. I then watched as the airport grew into what it is today. Great video and thankfully no music.
Life can be surreal thanks to UA-cam. Growing up in Canada after the war, London was like it was a made up place. All of the war movies etc and then to see like this. Well now it ‘s a real city. Thanks. I’m a pilot so I love the flying too👍🏻
Done several transits via of LCY perhaps my favourite 'unconventional airport' & simmed them too. Old pilot from Aussie. Thanks for your well presented video.
This is one of the best videos of a landing I've ever seen. Amazing
If the initial explanations are way too short in time (you have to pause the video to be able to read everything), all the rest is excellent : technical as well as landmarks subtitles are very clear and easy to read, and give the essential.
Very fews of such aviation videos make this effort to give even basic comments, so thumbs up !
Thanks for your comments nanba25, I'll take note of it ;) my initial idea tho was to create a very easy vid to watch, not making it too long to watch otherwise ppl get bored... difficult balance to achieve 😅 but thanks again!
Landing is smooth like butter
Very very good video. And a nice landing also. Great to see ! I flew a Dash8 with original panel on a simulator. If you forget that you're in a simulator, ......a special feeling like you are in a real one.
You committed Aviation, right there. Cool, calm approach and easy to see the hazards and difficulty. Thanks.
Thanks for your comment Tom! It looks calm but there's so much going on really xD ehhehe
Looked more like the glider approaches I'm used to, to be fair. We're only doing 55-60knots but we're less than a mile on finals - possibly even half a mile - and we have a 20-30 degree glideslope. Looks similar to your 5.5 degree, 160 knots from the pilot's eye view.
I fly this exact approach with FSX using the Majestic Dash 8 Q400 Pro with the FlyTampa London scenery and have all the options maxed out. It is as real of an experience you can get without flying the real thing. I always struggle with this glideslope. Speed control is the key here. Well done with the editing and callouts as you progress.
Thanks man!
Perhaps NOW I'll be able to land here using Microsoft Flight Sim 2020! I bet pilots are glad to see the new taxiway construction too. That's one heck of a hairpin maneuver, but the Dash can handle it all! Thanks for the great clean video!
Great approach and landing. Very smooth. Well done.
liked the descriptions of what is around. Good job.
This is good, I remember on 2000 When we build the HSBC tower, the jib of Wolf crane was on your way, we had to work hard to finish , because one extra month of crane on your way, cost 1,5 milion of pounds to Canary Warf company, we was strugly with strong to fit the last row .
Thank you for a really enjoyable and well shot video. The information given in the subtitles adds greatly to the experience. Plane looked to be in very safe hands!
Thanks a lot!
Cool video,
Great time of day to capture it. Amazing Piccadilly Circus is so visible, moreso that airfield!
A smooth, steady approach and landing.
Great panoramic approach Captain, description, views, thank you! Hello from Mexico
Excellnt view, we expect another one on a sunny day and late hours.
Lovely vid, I work in Canary Wharf and I always see the planes overhead , great piloting.
Super approach and awesome landing folks. I'd flight twice on a Sunday with u folks !!!
This is trurly the best approach video I have ever seen. Thanks!
Very nice, thank you for taking us along for the ride.
Flying by hand that´s REAL FLYING!!! THX for this nice vid and the very interesting subtitles! Always Happy Landings. Jo
Thanks!
such a steed decent , great job landing, only been to London twice, my favourite part is watching the never-ending decent and climb of aircraft of all sizes around you
many thanks for sharing panoramic view over london city. I wanna visit it
Great video! I loved seeing this view of London and EGLC. I've never been there and likely never will be, so it's great to get this beautiful view.
That is a COOL airport. I'd love to see this place in person. Cheers from Maine!
Perfect approach and landing, well-done pilots
It was a steep approach
Spectacular video! Flew once into this airport myself on the Fokker 50 with VLM, really cool. Thx for sharing!
Great video, thanks. Excellent for those of us who enjoy Flight Simulation to practise our London City Landings!!
Great video thank you. The approach is amazing.
Wow! That did look pretty steep. I'd love to see the approach and landing from the far end of the runway. Good video. (DH, Oklahoma City, Jan 31, 2020)
I love the dash 8 it's so slow but steady
Fantastic Video! Really enjoyed it
Thanks for your comment!

Great video. I became a little bit nervous watching the video at 4.40-4.50 until it was finally touch down the runway.
thanks, cool! Was landed on this one a couple years ago, City Jet from Amsterdam. Also gat the same approach like this, from west to ost.
Must be a great view for passengers, thanks :)
Thanks for the tour of London! That's a city I've always wanted to visit.
Thrilling... can't believe I'll be there in less than two weeks!
Right on the vasi two white two red and nice smooth flare. Greased it!
An exceptionally good video.... thanks so much!
Simply fabulous !!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Wow great skill that is one very steep approach !
Wow what a breathtaking view over London!!! Thanks a lot. Greetings from Montreal :)
Derrien, j'aime bien les Québéquois et les poutines :P aussi!! Et merci pour aimer le vidéo!!
Merci bien , mais vous avez mal ecrit le mot" Quebequois" :). C'est Quebecois.
Mais oui ;P dsl! hehe
Some skilled aviating happening here.
yeah tricky airport! Thanks ;)
Next it will be (hope) the jet CS100 from Bombardier. This video show very well that type of delicate approched! Thanks!
Fingers crossed ;) Merci!
Beautiful approach and landing
Wow it's quite interesting seeing that ~5.5° approach play out, and how obstacle clearance requires it.
Wonder if British Airways will ever reinstate flights 1/2 to/from JFK. Seeing this airport in person is a bucket list item for me.
Awesome video!! Thank you for highlighting the points-of-interest
A fantastic video; thanks for the detail. I have visited LCY pre-security, but never flown in or out of LCY. I look forward to it!
What a cool approach.
Awesome video and great flying! Liked! Beautiful to see London from the sky. Greetz
Really great video. Thanks for posting.
Now that's a text book landing. Very nice.
I guess it can always get better hehe but thanks!
Wow awesome approach, it's like the aproach into lga, but only in London...
Great video. Thanks for posting and for the handy subtitles.
The city Airport is just awesome!!!
Not as much as Funchal :P
@@SalPilot Different, but City Airport is awesome!
Thanks for sharing this. Wow, that is a steep approach.
Super Very Nice pailoting Beutyfull Video Shooting Fantastic Thank You Bro
I love the approach.

Thank you for a GREAT video seven stars!
beautiful city london
Nice. He safely made it over Pin Cushion Stadium and brought her in.
My youngest lad lives near the Oval and works at Canary Wharf. Great to see both from this viewpoint. Nice landing btw :)
The Ovals called the O2
Very enjoyable video and useful captions. Thank you!
This video, my friend, is as awesome as something can be!
Thanks Alex!
Nice video. Thank you very much for the subtitles.
Ouch., "I know it all" /// "Or, I knew it all, kinda" (Ex BA guy here) but I live in Australia, and I'm 50+years out of date... So very many changes (The grey skies havn't changed) Obviously City-Airport didn't even exist in the 1960s-1970s. fascinating approach but a few un-wanted lumpy-buildings on finals that need to go... Thank very much for posting..
It's London's LaGuardia!
LGA is way bigger!
Fascinating, thank you very much indeed.
Great video very informative and nothing spoiling it
Thanks!
Great video. I never knew the approach was so steep.
