It’s a Dreamliner-like cockpit with Airbus-like sidesticks and the radio controls on the upper dash, plus it can go through checklists by itself. The A220 flight control system combines the best of Boeing and Airbus hardware and software, although some pilots say the A220 flies more like a 787 with a sidestick with the blistering performance of a high-end 757.
Collins Aerospace (I still refer to them as Rockwell Collins) Proline Fusion Avionics Suite.

Late to the game here - thanks for posting. As pilot, the visual from the west into LGA 31 was one of my favorite approaches. Coming in from the north during fall foliage over Westchester County ..wasn't too shabby either :)
@@lordxandalf Buttery? No, they SLAMMED it down - that's the opposite of buttery! Clearly the pilot is ex-Navy. Flare? Gently greet the runway as smooth as you can? NAH - I'ma SMASH it into the touchdown zone and grab the number 3 wire!
@@deepsky3001 well it's a short runway. For me, I'd rather have a positive/form landing than a smooth landing that would burn through a few hundred extra meters.

They don't call it Expressway Visual anymore. It's now RNAV (GPS) X. Much more precise than visual. Every plane flying this approach now tracks exactly the same path as the plane before it. If you still insist on doing the visual, they call it Park Visual now.
The title is slightly misleading. This is not the Expressway Visual. It’s either the Park Visual or the RNAV X 31. The Expressway Visual wouldn’t be coded in the FMS
@@nuneze23 That's not true, minimums call are not always made. If you accept a visual approach it's because you're already visual and you need to maintain visual, so you usually cancel the minimums and the call it's not made.
@@Dani1996ITA yes you are correct I was half asleep when I made the comment and thought he was referring to RA callouts of the GPWS. I currently fly the 757/767 and only times we ever get the “approaching minimums/minimums” callout is when we set the RA bugs for Cat2 and 3 approaches.
I never know the A220 doesn’t call out Retard upon landing. I guess to many pilots complained to Airbus that their plane calls them a Retard upon landing. 😂
Everything in the fuselage from the front door to the empennage is made by a chinese subcontractor and shipped to new Orleans. Let's see how the 220 airframes hold up after a C check or two.
"LGA" isn't an acronym. Its an initialism, which is an abbreviation where the actual letters are said aloud, like "CIA" and "FBI", and unlike "NASA" or "USADA."
Holy shit when is this dumb myth going to stop popping up. The '5' callout has absolutely nothing to do with how smooth or "buttery" the landing will be. It is part of a pre-determined package the airline orders based on which callouts they want.
I always forget how much I love the 220 cockpit
Thank you bombardier
still think the classic a330/a340 cockpits look better

Love the A220.. like a miniature A350.
Exactly my thoughts
No relation

More like miniature b787

Bombardier ‘s guys did a geat job ! Amazing Canadian 🇨🇦 aircraft !
I hear that certain parts are still made of wood.
Nice. Off before the runway! Get ready for the taxi instructions. Did this in the MD-80 years ago. What a nice display.
Wow! That was an impressively short landing!
easy only going 137kts at full flaps 31ILS :)
@@jjstevenz I guess that would make sense. Nonetheless very buttery.

That is a beautiful cockpit display 😍
touchdown zone, centerline perfect!
To me the touchdown sink rate looks way beyond normal, i.e. it was a hard landing.

@@Diego38019what is considered a hard landing to you then?
I remember the first time I did this approach on IOE in the A320. That was fun!!!
one of the hardest approaches to do at night from the FO seat with no guidance. The base to final turn is crucial
@@AirmanBrown It is lively! :)
@@climbmaintain Thats a tough one to, you cant see a thing flying over fhe water
Do they make the landing with Autopilot? Espacialy the curve?
@@ch36799 no it’s hand flown
Amazing visuals!
hard landing right on the lights
Finally, altitude callout that speaks with Canadian accent.
Nice video. Subscribed! Keep up the good work!
In another 20 years hopefully this is what the next Microsoft Flight Simulator looks like.
It already looks 98% like that.

Short runway. Exactly what you want to do in this situation.
@@CoDWiiPS3Gameplay 2100m is not a short runway in a A220 mate.
@@thomaswheeler9565 short enough you want to make sure you've got everything deployed correctly as you've got the drink at the end of the strip. Mate.
@@thomaswheeler9565You don’t want to have to cross the intersecting runway at LGA
Beautiful!
That was a pretty landing save the landing. Feels like a smack down.

Take THAT Runway!!! Terps guys are now pissed off. They have to change the field elevation on all of the LGA approach charts.
For a moment there, asked my self what flight simulator this is 💀
MSFS but with raytracing
awesome thx for the video, cant wait for a study level a220 for MSFS
Yes! Or the A350. Wish there were more quality study level aircraft in MSFS.
@@MithridatesOfficial i’ve heard that somebody is working on a study level A350 right now, not sure how far along it is though
@@barrel6468 just checked, you are right! Just read an article on Digital Flight Dynamics. Unfortunately the release date will probably be 2030 lol
Dang….and I thought he was hand flying on this beautiful night til I heard the disconnect from autopilot at minimums 😂.
Great view!
Ah, back in my day it was completely a visual approach. My favorite one
So that’s what a Ryan air landing looks like! No flare…just drive it into the ground!
Stress-testing the passengers.
There was a flare 😛
Rough landing. Definitely didn’t make the captain proud 😂😂
Smooth is not what you want, particularly at LGA. On centerline and on aiming point sure would have made me proud.
Every time I see one of these jets landing from the cockpit view, I get the impression that they do not flare. Is this just an optical illusion?
Its soooooo freaking beautiful
smack on approach, awesome
Hello, I would like to inquire if it's possible to purchase this video from you and obtain licensing for its use.
Stunning capture! May I feature this landing in one of my next episodes? Of course with a link back to your original video. Cheers!
Watched this for 30 seconds and thought it was Microsoft Flight Simulator. Never fly that low in real life. Saw pilots arm and thought …"Okay"
It’s ok to flare? Beautiful cockpit
Very cool video!

simmers "bUt wHaT wAs tHe lAnDiNg rAtE?!" 🤪
Flown by autopilot?
Nice 👍
That's the RNAV, not the Expressway visual which is a lot tighter (going over the LIE then turning over the park)
Those PFDs are so big, they look like they could do Garmin's SVT on them.
LGA Expressway 31 and JFK's Canarsie approach ......the best.
Take that LaGahdia!
What city?
Do they land by autopilot?
Nice little airplane.
svs off?
Perfect landing
Would be sweet if Delta started flying these from here in Fresno to SLC instead of the E175. The 737 is fine to ATL
Must be a Navy pilot
looks like an older GA aircraft cockpit
Did he make you proud?
This was a 2nd wire trap.
I Always loved the C series cockpit (Never ever going to call it Airbus)
why is there a minimums call out on a visual approach
Because those callouts aren’t specific to an instrument approach. Those callouts are always made regardless. It’s called EGPWS
@@nuneze23 That's not true, minimums call are not always made. If you accept a visual approach it's because you're already visual and you need to maintain visual, so you usually cancel the minimums and the call it's not made.

the title is misleading... this is actually rnav x into lga 31, not the expressway visual
no flare bois
Why people call this old? This looks more modern than a320, a330, look at those big monitors, even fms i think is screen
Ca serait vraiment bien de le voir dans FS2020. Une equipe de moins sur la A320 pour developper le A220
Resonance.
It looks like one of those glass cockpit modern general aviation planes it wouldn't remind me of an airbus lol
it's not really an airbus unless it shouts the R word at you just before touchdown 😅😬
Notice how they don’t overshoot the runway like 99% of flight sim UA-camrs lol
autopilot took care of the turn
@@arturdlucas yeah. Visual approach my but. These planes RNAV visual approaches these days.
I never know the A220 doesn’t call out Retard upon landing. I guess to many pilots complained to Airbus that their plane calls them a Retard upon landing. 😂
Because it’s not an Airbus, it’s a Bombardier
this is AIRBUS?!
It was bought by airbus
Bombardier but taken over by Airbus.

That thing stops fast
When did Ryanair start flying A220s?
Not much of a flare at all but smoothish anyways
the AP disabling sound is too disturbing :v
sounds like sped up airbus cavalry call lmao
20 105
KA-POW
Navy guys…lol
talk about short final.....try that on an A330 lol

Pretty tough flying that approach on the AP til 500 feet. Couple real “drivers” right there. Smh
