Captain you seem so happy to have the job you have.. you are always so enthusiastic , polite and appreciative of your coleagues. I am sure that every FO that you fly with learns so much and enjoys flying with you. If I had ever had the chance to learn to fly I would have loved to have you as a Mentour.

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Es ist wunderschön auf KOS, ich war in Kardamena (beim Landeanflug direkt drüber geflogen) und habe 14 Tage im 5*Hotel verbracht. Mietwagen Flughafen Flughafen Größe Polo. Vom äußersten Norden bis in den Süden fährt man gut 60 km. Eine Inselumrundung wie auf Rhodos ist nicht möglich (einige Stellen sind unbegehbar) Ich komme wieder.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Der Anflug hier auf KOS ist direkt über Kardamena, der Flughafen ist in "Antimachia". Mein Urlaub war wirklich ausgezeichnet und die 14 Tage zu kurz. ;) Ich bewundere Piloten und natürlich auch die Flugbegleiter (jeweils m/w). Wirklich ein toller Beruf, aber man ist halt ständig unterwegs.
I absolutely love your videos and your First Officers are very privileged to work with such a wonderful personable Captain! Thank you for the wonderful content!
I would’ve never imagined that pilots disconnect the a/p so early on the approach and fly manually. Thank you for providing these interesting and educational videos!
Thanks for watching and for sharing your observation. Visual approaches are usually flown without autopilot. So the manual flying part may be longer than during an instrument approach.
I am only a couple of minutes in but this video is already making me misty eyed. I have not flown into Kos since 1989 (34 years?). I made use of the airport a few times in the 80's for vacations both on the Island and Kalymnos. Love the commentary folks.
Thanks for watching and for your very personal feedback! Please stay tuned for the Kos departure video. It will be published soon and shows great views of Kalymnos Island. Have a wonderful day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I don't make a habit of not responding to Commercial Jet Pilots who not only gave me the privilege of reading my comment but also took the time acknowledging a pleb like me. I finally caught your new departure video from Kos (as promised) and (as also promised) the view of Kalymnos during the departure was an almost religious experience. The old back track up R32 (it is 32 yh? I am sure the southbound designation is R8) brought back wonderful memories due to the view provided straight down the runway. Love your videos and I am in awe of your work and the optimal use of CRM you clearly exhibit when working with the Captain. As a Boeing fanboy I have not flown on many AB's but the a320 series seems like a beautiful family of machines.
@stee with2ees Thanks again for your personal feedback and the nice words. Kos runway designation is 32 and 14. That's 140 or 320 degrees as the origin for the name runway. As the opposite runway is 180 degrees opposite, we just have to deduct 180 degrees from 320 degrees and we get the result of 140 degrees. Until 2006, it was runway 33 and 15. The designation changed because the local compass variation in Kos changed over time. Right now, the compass should show 323 or 143 degrees when on the runways. Have a great day!

Great video and great landing. I landed on Samos with strong crosswind and really enjoyed as a part of flight to Kos. Enjoyed Kos landing and takeoff. Thank you for video as from pilots perspective.
Freue mich jedes Mal über ein neues Video des Kanals! Vielen Dank, dass diesmal das Briefing dabei ist-wirklich toll! Bin riesiger Fan des Kanals-bester aktiver Airbus Kanal auf UA-cam
always check your videos to see if there is one to where i am flying to I am going to Kos in September looking forward to it thankyou captain for the great video
Well done, Captain - your best so far! The weather was very clear, so we could see the runway from a long way out. Also, watching the approach progress on the ND was very informative, even down to the extended runway centre line for your visual approach to land. Thanks again!
Thank you for another wonderful video Captain. I know the aircraft is your office so to speak and you have been flying for some time but do you still wonder at the beauty of our planet as seen from 30000 feet or whether you take it for granted? Somehow I think you are still just as amazed by it as you probably were on your first flight, am I right? I would love to just sit and gaze out of the cockpit window its stunning. Thank you again Sir.
Thanks for watching and your great feedback! One of the privileges of the pilot job is that we see lots of beautiful things which other people who are sitting in an office never see. I am still amazed every day and enjoy the fantastic views of our wonderful nature: Sunsets, sunrises, mountains, volcanoes, islands, lakes ...
Captain, is a visual approach always preferred? Or just more fun. Such impressive skill you have, thankyou for the time and effort you put into these videos for us. They are hugely appreciated.
Thanks for watching and your friendly words! I always prefer the visual approach. It reduces flight time, saves fuel and emissions and makes fun. Have a great day!
Great video as always! Always love a visual approach. I definitely plan to be a pilot so I watch a lot of videos like this and your videos are definitely the best!
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I also love visual approaches. Nice to hear that you would like to become a pilot. Please tell everybody about the channel. All the best to you!
Powerful Landing skills, that was amazing! And I've never thought the ATC people are so friendly to the pilots :) I'm still missing Snoop Dogg as Captain Antoine Mack ;)
Thanks you for the nice feedback! It is always a pleasure for me to fly to the Greek islands. ATC and ground crews are very friendly and always helpful.
Bin ein neuer Fan von euch und über jedes Video begeistert 👍👍. Meine Frage ist aber: Lieber Kapitän sind Sie Deutscher? Sie sprechen zwischendurch perfekt deutsch.
Vielen lieben Dank fürs Anschauen! Schön zu hören, dass die Videos begeistern! Ich bin Deutscher, die Beobachtung ist korrekt. Einen schönen Tag noch und hoffentlich viel Spaß mit neuen Videos!
Yet another amazing video, keep up with this great work! Also, is it possible to put subtitles for atc communication to your videos? I think it s not always clear for all of us, hearing from the radio makes it a little bit difficult to understand.
Thanks for watching and the feedback! Subtitles for ATC communications are a good suggestion. I will think about it. The youtube auto generated sub titles usually do not catch everything or even get it wrong.
Great, thx a lot for this nice video. Your videos are always a good start into the weekend .😊 In this video the greek ATC is a little bit 'challenging', but you get it probably clearer through your headsets. Have a nice weekend and best regards.
Thanks for watching and for your friendly feedback! The audio in the video is the same as in the headsets. Sometimes ATC is talking as we did the briefing or discussed something in the cockpit. Also people from different countries pronounce the English language somehow a little different. I suggest watching and hearing this video and my other Greek approach videos several times. After that it may be easier to understand the local ATC communications. For us it is the same: If we fly the first time to or through a certain country, it may be difficult to understand ATC. After a few times, it is becoming much more easy as we are getting used to the local pronunciations. And: If we do not understand an ATC message and we think that the message was important, we always ask for clarification. Getting back to Greek ATC: They are always doing a great job. Especially on the small airports, they know how to perfectly manage the limited capacities and are always friendly and very helpful. I have to thank them a lot.
Again an incredible video. I really like the current style of the video, how everything is set up etc.! 👍Please continue doing this :) Loved the briefing! What about a departure video with all procedures and maybe the briefing? Think that could be interesting!
OMG! This is amazing! without the ILS it must be super hard to land like that. Question 1) Do you have to use the rudder paddles to make a coordinated turn on A320 or it's not required and only needed for smaller aircrafts? Question 2) There's no manual control to only operate left or right spoilers (I think). Autopilot or the heading knob also moves one of the spoilers (left or right) during a turns in addition to ailerons. How do you replicate this during manual turn because both spoiler move together? Question 3) Why the captain was frequently moving the speed brakes lever during the flight?
It is prohibited to use rudder pedals during normal flight on the Airbus! Rudder is only for nosewheel steering, single engine operations, crosswind landings, and abnormal situations. On light airplanes, it is essential to use the rudder together with the aileron for every turn to keep the ball centered. Spoilers and ailerons are reflected the same if the autopilot flies or if you fly by hand as long as you fly the same maneuvers. I used the speedbrakes during the approach to add drag for an increase in descent rate or a faster speed reduction.
Great video! Quick question, I can't for the life of me understand what TWR says at 14:14 after "descend", then your First Officer responds and also says complete gibberish (to me) after "descending to...". What is being said there?
Thanks for watching and your question. The TWR clears us for a descent to „traffic circuit altitude“. This is the traffic pattern altitude we use for a visual approach. Have a nice day!
Thanks for watching and for your friendly feedback! You are correct, the Bergamo video is not available right now. I am sorry about that. Have a great day!
Hi excellent as always and with a briefing now!! We simmers are able to follow with our charts! Incidentally, just curious, what are the dates of the approach and RNAV plates you used? Didn’t hear that in the briefing. Wanting to check against the ones I buy. Keith
Thanks for watching and for being a regular viewer. We do not have to check the individual chart date. This had to be done years ago as we flew with printed charts. At that time it was always possible that one pilot had a different chart than the other pilot. That happened, if one pilot did not get a revision by mail or did not put the required revision page in his or her personal chart binder. Now it is different. Everything is digital and we update all the charts, manuals, performance programs ... on the pilots computers on every flight day. So we only have to check that everything is up the current revision cycle. In the airplane, we check before the flight that the current revision cylce is the active cylce in the FMGS. Chart data and the FMGS data are updated every 28 days and usually transmitted a few days in advance.
Captain your flight logs are one more amazing and beautiful than the last. Of course they also are educational which brings me to my question. You were instructed to cross Morix at FL70 if I heard corretly. 40 NM away at FL150 using the 3:1 glide rule would require roughly 25NM to lose 8000'. Why was the descent rate so steep and why not put in the 7000' restriction in the FMGC and let managed descent take care of it? Many thanks and With lots of respect -Kam
Thanks for watching and your question. The standard approach which we briefed and planned was via Morix. It required us to cross Morix at 4000 feet or above. We were only cleared to 7000 feet but further descent to 4000 feet or even lower would have followed. We could have done a fully managed approach descent. Direct Morix was already a shortcut and we had to increase the descent rate for some time to stay on path after the shortcut. In addition, we expected a visual approach, which further reduces the distance. So we continued with idle thrust and increased the speed and with the speed the descent rate increased to get rid of some altitude. At that point we were at about 16000 feet with about 60 nautical miles to fly and 35 knots of tailwind. The visual approach reduced the distance to about 40 nautical miles. I hope this explanation helps a little bit. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos im gonna fly eurowings in microsoft flight simulator 2020 in IVAO online ATC today again I am 17 btw my dream is to become a pilot
Hello captain. I am waiting for the LTFE landing video :) May i ask for the the FIX info radius degrees? How much radius are them ? Is it KOPAR arrival chart? To descend with VS -4000 don't bother the passengers? By the way i am so happy to you put PFD and ND screens into your videos; they are so helpful for me. Congratulations and respect...
Thanks for watching. If you hear our briefing: It was the Kopar 2L arrival with RNP32 approach. The vertical speed of the airplane is completely different from the vertical speed of the cabin. Even if we descent with 4000 feet a minute or more for a while, the cabin will stay at a rate of for example 500 feet a minute. The airplane would tell us, if the cabin is not able to follow our descent with a normal cabin descent rate. In a non pressurized airplane the cabin vertical speed would be the same and a descent rate of 4000 feet a minute would not be liked by the passengers. I haven't been to Bodrum for a while. But as soon as I fly there, I try to record and publish a video. Thanks for your patience. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos İ missed the arrival information part of the video, sorry for that. you are a very helpful man. these are so great knowledges and informations by you. thank you so much.i will suggest the other people your videos at Fenix A320 discord page.
Thanks for watching, your great feedback and your question. The pilot monitoring has his hand usually near or at the sidestick during the approach. He or she is doing the communication and one of the push to talk buttons for the radio communication is located at the sidestick. Also he needs to be able to take over the controls from the pilot flying at any time. The Airbus has a very nice adjustable armrest which keeps the arm and the hand very relaxed in this position. Have a nice day!

For Low visibility procedures, we have to use ILS transmitters at the airport and receivers in the airplane. RNAV approaches are not possible for Low Vis Autoland procedures.
Thanks for watching and the nice feedback! It depends on the destinations and the traffic situation. There are airports, like Dusseldorf or Cologne in Germany which prohibit visual approaches under normal circumstances for large aircraft. Other airports have different regulations. Especially at the smaller airports in Greece, Spain or Italy visual approaches are usually approved if the traffic situation permits. It reduces the flight time, saves fuel, produces less emissions and makes more fun.
No, there were no safety compromises. Everything in accordance to good safety procedures. The rear right slide was the first slide which had been disarmed at the call "Cabin crew all doors in park". As the lower ECAM took a moment to change from the wheel to the door page, it showed the door already disarmed and moments later the other doors also disarmed. This is the normal procedure. It depends on the speed of the cabin crew members disarming the slides. Most of the time, you see the slides first all still armed, but if one or the other flight attendant is really fast, it looks like at this flight.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Hey there! Thanks for explaining! I'm aware of these, in my mind I didn't even think that the cabin crew could have been that fast disarming the slides, that's why I thought it wasn't even armed in the first case, which would be quite a safety hazard during an emergency. Thanks for explaining and no worries mate :)
Die Callouts am Ende waren ein wenig zufällig, ich glaube der Ausrufer war überfordert mit den Terrainunterschieden. Nach 1000 gleich 400, dann nochmal 400, direkt 300 hinterher und bei gefühlt 100 Metern nochmal 300-200-100-50. :) Dreimal Retard mit 5 danach ist selten, gibt's wohl nur bei Butterlandungen. ^^ Grüsse aus der Schweiz.
Sehr gute Beobachtungen: Der Ausrufer ist ja der Radiohöhenmesser. Sie hören sich zwar zufällig an, geben aber genau das wieder, das sich unter dem Flugzeug befindet. Wenn das Gelände vor der Runway in der Höhe stark variiert, dann passiert das, was wir hier hören. Zunächst ist das Flugzeug noch in 1000 Fuß über dem Gelände und dann steigt das Gelände sehr stark an. Das Ergebnis ist, dass das Flugzeug zwar kaum weiter gesunken ist aber durch das ansteigende Gelände sich nur noch in 400 Fuß über dem Gelände befindet. Dann kommt der normale Countdown des Höhenmessers mit Retard. Viele Grüße in die Schweiz!
Vielen Dank fürs Feedback! Das ist ja doof, dass ihr keine Anflüge nach Sicht machen dürft. Sehr schade. Sichtanflüge sparen doch Sprit, Zeit, machen weniger Emissionen und viel Spaß.
Vielen dank Herr Kapitan und ihr Erster Offizier. When I purchase my first private aircraft, jet of course, if you are still airborne, I will offer you a salary you would not be able to refuse to be my pilot. Interested to know if you have done any training instruction in your career so far. You certainly have the personality to do so.
Vielen Dank! Thanks a lot for the great feedback, the kind words and the trust in us pilots! We both in the video have a training background. Have a wonderful day!

That happened, if one pilot did not get a revision by mail or did not put the required revision page in his or her personal chart binder. Now it is different. Everything is digital and we update all the charts, manuals, performance programs ... on the pilots computers on every flight day. So we only have to check that everything is up the current revision cycle. In the airplane, we check before the flight that the current revision cylce is the active cylce in the FMGS. Chart data and the FMGS data are updated every 28 days and usually transmitted a few days in advance.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for the explanation. Looking forward to the next video!
Captain your flight logs are one more amazing and beautiful than the last. Of course they also are educational which brings me to my question. You were instructed to cross Morix at FL70 if I heard corretly. 40 NM away at FL150 using the 3:1 glide rule would require roughly 25NM to lose 8000'. Why was the descent rate so steep and why not put in the 7000' restriction in the FMGC and let managed descent take care of it? Many thanks and With lots of respect -Kam
Thanks for watching and your question. The standard approach which we briefed and planned was via Morix. It required us to cross Morix at 4000 feet or above. We were only cleared to 7000 feet but further descent to 4000 feet or even lower would have followed. We could have done a fully managed approach descent. Direct Morix was already a shortcut and we had to increase the descent rate for some time to stay on path after the shortcut. In addition, we expected a visual approach, which further reduces the distance. So we continued with idle thrust and increased the speed and with the speed the descent rate increased to get rid of some altitude. At that point we were at about 16000 feet with about 60 nautical miles to fly and 35 knots of tailwind. The visual approach reduced the distance to about 40 nautical miles. I hope this explanation helps a little bit. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos thank you very much for that thorough explanation. Also great job hand flying from 10000’ :)
Very nice I want to be a pilot when I grow up. ✈️🤩
Thanks for watching and and the good feedback. Nice to hear that you also want to become a pilot! Have a great day!
Really nice visual! Tx
Thanks for watching and the good feedback! All the best to you!
Wonderful flight deck dynamics and atmosphere created by this crew. F/O coming down with a cloggy nose? 😀
Thank you for watching and the nice words. The F/O was in good shape. He always sounds like that his nose is somehow clogged.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Hehe. He seems like a really cool guy. And captain is always positive! Keep those videos coming. A joy to watch!
Well flown visually
Thanks! Have a great day!
Awesome job!
Thanks! Have a great day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos im gonna fly eurowings in microsoft flight simulator 2020 in IVAO online ATC today again I am 17 btw my dream is to become a pilot
@@Draax1 Nice to hear that. Have fun with the simulator! I hope to meet you in a few years in the cockpit! All the best to you!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos thank you
@@Draax1 Good luck and don't end up in an office job like me! :D
Hello captain. I am waiting for the LTFE landing video :) May i ask for the the FIX info radius degrees? How much radius are them ? Is it KOPAR arrival chart? To descend with VS -4000 don't bother the passengers? By the way i am so happy to you put PFD and ND screens into your videos; they are so helpful for me. Congratulations and respect...
Thanks for watching. If you hear our briefing: It was the Kopar 2L arrival with RNP32 approach. The vertical speed of the airplane is completely different from the vertical speed of the cabin. Even if we descent with 4000 feet a minute or more for a while, the cabin will stay at a rate of for example 500 feet a minute. The airplane would tell us, if the cabin is not able to follow our descent with a normal cabin descent rate. In a non pressurized airplane the cabin vertical speed would be the same and a descent rate of 4000 feet a minute would not be liked by the passengers. I haven't been to Bodrum for a while. But as soon as I fly there, I try to record and publish a video. Thanks for your patience. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos İ missed the arrival information part of the video, sorry for that. you are a very helpful man. these are so great knowledges and informations by you. thank you so much.i will suggest the other people your videos at Fenix A320 discord page.
One question, please: does the second (non-flying) pilot keep his hand on the yoke out of habit or can he intervene ..? Complimenti, bel video ;)
Thanks for watching, your great feedback and your question. The pilot monitoring has his hand usually near or at the sidestick during the approach. He or she is doing the communication and one of the push to talk buttons for the radio communication is located at the sidestick. Also he needs to be able to take over the controls from the pilot flying at any time. The Airbus has a very nice adjustable armrest which keeps the arm and the hand very relaxed in this position. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Grazie, buon weekend
Qualität wird von Video zu Video besser, weiter so!
Vielen lieben Dank! Einen schönen Tag noch!
Great Landing 🛬

Is RNAV possible during Low vis procedure ?
For Low visibility procedures, we have to use ILS transmitters at the airport and receivers in the airplane. RNAV approaches are not possible for Low Vis Autoland procedures.
What equipment (cable) is needed to record the intercom and ATC ?
Right now, I do not release any information about the recording equipment I use. This may change in the future. Please stay tuned.
Love the videos !! nicee
Thanks for your good feedback! All the best to you!
Exiting visual approach, I would assume you don't get to do these much.
Thanks for watching and the nice feedback! It depends on the destinations and the traffic situation. There are airports, like Dusseldorf or Cologne in Germany which prohibit visual approaches under normal circumstances for large aircraft. Other airports have different regulations. Especially at the smaller airports in Greece, Spain or Italy visual approaches are usually approved if the traffic situation permits. It reduces the flight time, saves fuel, produces less emissions and makes more fun.
When shutting down, it looks like the rear right slide wasn't armed. Isn't that a huge safety compromise?
No, there were no safety compromises. Everything in accordance to good safety procedures. The rear right slide was the first slide which had been disarmed at the call "Cabin crew all doors in park". As the lower ECAM took a moment to change from the wheel to the door page, it showed the door already disarmed and moments later the other doors also disarmed. This is the normal procedure. It depends on the speed of the cabin crew members disarming the slides. Most of the time, you see the slides first all still armed, but if one or the other flight attendant is really fast, it looks like at this flight.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Hey there!
Thanks for explaining! I'm aware of these, in my mind I didn't even think that the cabin crew could have been that fast disarming the slides, that's why I thought it wasn't even armed in the first case, which would be quite a safety hazard during an emergency. Thanks for explaining and no worries mate :)
Die Callouts am Ende waren ein wenig zufällig, ich glaube der Ausrufer war überfordert mit den Terrainunterschieden. Nach 1000 gleich 400, dann nochmal 400, direkt 300 hinterher und bei gefühlt 100 Metern nochmal 300-200-100-50. :) Dreimal Retard mit 5 danach ist selten, gibt's wohl nur bei Butterlandungen. ^^ Grüsse aus der Schweiz.
Sehr gute Beobachtungen: Der Ausrufer ist ja der Radiohöhenmesser. Sie hören sich zwar zufällig an, geben aber genau das wieder, das sich unter dem Flugzeug befindet. Wenn das Gelände vor der Runway in der Höhe stark variiert, dann passiert das, was wir hier hören. Zunächst ist das Flugzeug noch in 1000 Fuß über dem Gelände und dann steigt das Gelände sehr stark an. Das Ergebnis ist, dass das Flugzeug zwar kaum weiter gesunken ist aber durch das ansteigende Gelände sich nur noch in 400 Fuß über dem Gelände befindet. Dann kommt der normale Countdown des Höhenmessers mit Retard. Viele Grüße in die Schweiz!
Der FO sieht verdächtig aus wie mein ehemaliger Fluglehrer :)
Danke fürs Anschauen. Deine Vermutung ist theoretisch möglich. Schönen Tag noch!
SEHHR COOL!
Vielen Dank fürs gute Feedback!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Bitte! Und ich mag deine Videos!
Sehr sehr cool der Anflug! Um die Operation beneide ich euch, da wir das nicht dürfen :(
Vielen Dank fürs Feedback! Das ist ja doof, dass ihr keine Anflüge nach Sicht machen dürft. Sehr schade. Sichtanflüge sparen doch Sprit, Zeit, machen weniger Emissionen und viel Spaß.
Vielen dank Herr Kapitan und ihr Erster Offizier. When I purchase my first private aircraft, jet of course, if you are still airborne, I will offer you a salary you would not be able to refuse to be my pilot. Interested to know if you have done any training instruction in your career so far. You certainly have the personality to do so.
Vielen Dank! Thanks a lot for the great feedback, the kind words and the trust in us pilots! We both in the video have a training background. Have a wonderful day!
Thanks for watching. All the best to you!
