Fabulous video.
Thank you! Have a great day!!
Hearing LHR ATC (especially director) is always such a pleasure. Precise, concise absolute professionals. Great Video as always!
dat kann'ste mit Deutschen English unterricht nicht vergleichen , ich musste schwer nachdenken für sämtliche vokabel die einheimischen sachten oft sorry - extreme stadt !👍
Thanks for your feedback! I completely agree! LHR ATC is great! There is never any doubt about their instuctions. Even if your mother language is not English. They create a professional and polite environment for this busy airport/airspace.
Flugfunk ist immer etwas schwer zu verstehen, wenn man nicht oder nur selten selbst fliegt oder funkt. Das dauert immer etwas, bevor man die einzelnen Vokabeln und Anweisungen nachvollziehen kann. In London wird immer klar und deutlich gesprochen, so dass man die Anweisungen sehr gut verstehen kann, auch wenn Englisch nicht die Muttersprache ist.
I think the British Accent certainly plays into this. It's perfectly clear, professional and concise in the context of such an application.
The great sausage factory of 120.4!
Heathrow ATC are so polite, clear and easy to understand. Great approach and landing, I loved the follow the green taxiways. A pleasure to watch. 🙂
Thanks for watching and your detailed feedback! I completely agree! The Heathrow ATC controllers are wonderful! They are always polite and speak such a clear English that there is never a doubt about what they say. Have a good day!
Wow that was really cool to see! An autoland in the fog and pretty interesting to see how local fog can be, there was nothing over the city. The taxi system at Heathrow with the greens also seems really nice
Thanks for watching and your feedback! This was a very special day. We do not see such combinations very often: Great views of the city in the dark, fog and the green light taxi system. That taxi system is wonderful and a great help for a safe operation. Have a good day!
That was great. The taxiway lighting system at Heathrow certainly makes things less potentially confusing at night.
Thanks for watching! I agree, the taxi system with the green lights is a key part in providing a very safe operation on the ground during night or restricted visibility on this busy airport. Have a good day!
Thank you for making and sharing this - it was amazing to see the sights of London and to realise the skills and professionalism of everyone involved.
Thanks for watching and for sharing your feedback! Have a great day!
Great video. Fantastic views of London. Interesting watching an auto-landing in that fog. I liked the follow the greens instruction. Made finding the gate easy. Looking forward to viewing the next video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching and your detailed feedback! Autoland is always something special because we do not do that every day. Follow the greens is a great system which helps a lot during foggy conditions or in the dark. Have a good day!
Great to see a CAT III landing. Thank you very much!
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Have a wonderful day!
Thank you Captain for the great video. And congrats to the A/P, did great job!!!
Thanks to you for watching and for your comment! Yes, the autopilot did a great job!!! The automatic landings are not always that smooth. Have a nice day!
my hometown! thank you as always for the upload, captain. amazing video.
Thanks for watching and all my best greetings to London! Have a nice day!
Another great video, thanks for sharing it. And thanks for showing the ND ground speed during taxi. I really enjoyed it. Cheers
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I kept the ND visible during taxi due to previous requests and feedbacks of several viewers. Nice to hear that you like it. Have a good day!
Great autoland.....thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! Have a nice day!
Beautiful approach like always ❤
Thanks for watching and the great feedback! Have a nice day!
An education in how to stay calm, relaxed and professional.
Always a pleasure to hear London ATC and its clear, concise instructions.
I get 'nervous' in flight simulators waiting for the runway lights to emerge from the mist - can't imagine myself coping in a real plane!
PS. it isn't always foggy in London :)
Thanks for watching and your detailed feedback! I agree, great ATC in London. We fly with well maintained airplanes. We trust the systems and we monitor and double check that everything is right. There is even a system installed which gives us a red Autoland warning light, if below 200 feet certain parameters are not ok. If something is wrong, we are trained to take over manually at any time and discontinue the approach or the landing. Have a nive day!
Great video guys, as ever. ATC professional as ever! 👍👍✈️✈️
Thanks! Have a nice day!
I am getting hooked on this type of video. Above all, to me it shows how brilliant humans can be in making great things happen when we work together.

War vor einem halben Jahr in London und hatte auch einen Nachtanflug auf Heathrow...einfach nur spektakulär schön...!
Danke für eure Videos immer wieder interessant und informativ zu kucken 😊
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das Feedback. Nachtanflüge über London finde ich auch sehr beeindruckend. Die Stadt ist ja immer sehr schön beleuchtet.
Sehr schönes Video! Werde das gleich nachher im Homecockpit mal nach fliegen. Übrigens ist das eine tolle Idee, den Sound vom Flugzeug während der Landung einzublenden.
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das spezifische Feedback. Das hilft sehr! Viel Spaß im Simulator! und noch einen schönen Tag!
I remember the first time I flew over London, I was really surprised how close planes got and how good the view was!
If the weather is nice, this approach always enables wonderful views of the city!
Another great night-time approach into LHR.... Funny how it was clear and then the Fog at the short final. Could be quite alarming if not expected!
Thanks again.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! This was a very interesting morning. We do not see a situation like that very often. We expected the fog but we did not expect the nice views of the city. Have a nice day!
As always. The best!
Thank you! Have a wonderful day!
Greetings From The UK as ever excellent
Thank you so much for watching and the friendly words! Have a great day!
Great video as always. Nice to see one in my home city, I hope you enjoyed the views!

Nice one 👍✈️
Thanks! Have a nice day!
So they finally finished what they were doing on Kilo. When I left (4-ish years ago), I think they only just started. Try and catch some of my old friends aswell at the ground handling company for Eurowings 😉 Love the videos!
Thanks for watching and your detailed feedback! Kilo must have been finished recently. It took a while until it was done. Have a great day!
Amazing ❤
Thanks!
Autoland is really rare, I watched it again and again.
That's right. Autolands are not done very often. Only if the weather is foggy and the airport has a CAT 2 or 3 ILS system installed.
Wenn man in jedem Flughafen einfach die Greens folgen soll, wäre das Taxing sehr entspannend :)
Schön mal das Autolanding kennengelernt zu haben, danke fürs Video!
Danke fürs Anschauen und das Feedback! Ja, immer nur den grünen Lampen folgen wäre super. Einen schönen Tag noch!
This taxi system follow the greens is so good idea 👍
Its a great system which enhances safety!
A autopilot landing? That's wonderful to see! First time seeing an aircraft lands with autopilot!
Yes, automatic landing. We only do that in foggy weather. And it is only possible at certain airports who are equipped with a very expensive CAT3 instrument landing system.
A great video once again! Hopefully you can capture an approach into my hometown of Birmingham (EGBB) one day
Thanks for watching and your friendly feedback! I published a Birmingham video in the early days of this channel. It was only recorded with one camera and does not show the cockpit. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/nuvu3uUq8no/v-deo.html I am sure that I will be back sometime and able to record a new video with the multiple camera setup. Please stay tuned! Greetings to Birmingham! Have a nice day!
Another good one, thanks for that. If ever you go to EDI/EGPH or GLA/EGPF, I would love to see a video of that.
Thanks for watching and for your friendly feedback! I have been to Edinburgh a while ago and published a video. But it is only one camera with an outside view. When I come back again, I for sure will record a multi camera video with cockpit insights. It may take a while, so please stay tuned. Here is the link to the Edinburgh one camera video: ua-cam.com/video/F5KsYyplAA0/v-deo.html Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Look forward to that! Thanks!
As always a great video, especially the autoland part... I just keep wondering - do you feel some sort of "relief" when you first spot the runway lights during autoland? Or do you just know this aircraft so well that you fully trust it's capabilities? Also in many of your videos, even with way shorter taxiways to your stand, you do the single engine procedure - not this time. I just wanted to ask if this is some company regulation or a personal decision of yours or did the weather/fog play a role in this? And how cool is the "follow the greens" line from the ground controller... why doesn't every airport have this system in place xD
Thanks again Captain and I'm already looking forward to your next video! Greetings from Salzburg :)
Thanks for watching and the detailed feedback! I know that the aircraft is well equipped and maintained. That means that in general, I can trust the systems. Nevertheless, we continuously monitor everything and in case of a failure or a deviation, we are trained to take over manually (if needed) and to discontinue the approach. The Airbus also has an Autoland warning light. This is armed automatically at 200 feet and flashes if certain parameters are out of limits or 2 systems deviate too much.
Away from all that, I am always happy to break out of the clouds or fog and seeing the approach lighrs.
During low visibility weather, maximum concentration of both pilots is required on taxiing and navigation on the ground. Switching off one engine for single engine taxi in would have been an avoidable distraction. Taxiing was continuously. If ATC would have stopped us somewhere for a moment, we may have opted to switch off one engine during the waiting time.
Follow the green is a wonderful system. It would be great if every CAT3 airport would have it. I assume that it is very expensive to install, to maintain and to operate.
Greetings to Salzburg! Have a nice day!
Das war ein wirklich beeindruckendes Video. Da kam ja wirklich einiges zusammen. London erneut mit ihrem 160kn/4nm speed constraint und dann noch im dunkeln + Nebel. War wirklich cool das anzusehen. War auch interessant zu sehen wie das mit der all weather operation abläuft. Sind solche instructions wie "follow the greens" in solchen Fällen üblich, sodass die gezielte Beleuchtung der Haupttaxirouten genutzt wurde? Insgesamt finde ich solche bad weather Videos auch sehr interessant, eine schöne Abwechslung zu den sonnigen Urlaubsdestinationen.
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das ausführliche Feedback! Ja, der Anflug war sehr vielfältig. Das hat man in dieser Kombination auch nicht alle Tage. "Follow the greens" ist ein tolles System, das die Lampen so schaltet, dass man - wenn man den grünen Lichtern folgt - auch nur dort lang rollt, wo man langrollen soll. Falls man stehen bleiben soll, leuchtet eine Reihe roter Lampen (Stopbar) auf. In London wird die Rollstrecke so bis zur Parkposition angezeigt. Das kenne ich auch nur von dort.
Follow the green, It's really fantastic way to taxi to gate in the complex airport like Hethrow.
I agree, this is the perfect system in the dark or fog for taxiing at such a complex airport.
never get enough of your fantastic videos captain. Did you arrive from LAM? it appeared ATC gave you a right 270 deg turn to intercept the localizer. Do they normally not let you fly the initial approach procedure?
Many thanks- Kam (ABout to fly a 321 from LFPG to EGLL in flight sim via BIG)
Thanks for watching and for your wonderful feedback! That is correct, we arrived from LAM. The intercept heading for the localizer was 240 degrees. You can see and hear that in the video at 1:43. This is a 30 degrees intercept and very common. Arriving in LHR, we usually fly the standard approach to LAM and hold over LAM. Then the clearance is to leave LAM on a certain heading. And after that further headings are provided until the intercept of the localizer. I wish you a nice day and lots of fun with your simulator!
Thank you for sharing the taxiing from or to the gates besides the approach or departure. Most of the pilots cut the video as soon as they're takeing off or landing. Thanks.
Thanks for watching and the helpful feedback! Glad you enjoyed it! Have a nice day!
Strictly speaking, in this case the captain would be the 'pilot not flying' ;-)
I really like your videos, and I used them as 'inspiration' to recreate these with my A320 on MS Flight Simulator. Keep it up ...
Thanks for watching and your feedback! One pilot is always the pilot flying, even if the autopilot is on. In case of an autoland approach in fog, the captain is officially the pilot flying. He controls the inputs to the flight management system and decides about to continue or going around before landing. He or she also takes over manually whenever needed and latest when leaving the runway. Also he or she moves the thrustlevers to idle prior touchdown. Have a nice day!
Wonderful Video! 🙂 Thanks for sharing it with us. I wish "follow the green" would be able in the simulator.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Yes, „follow the green“ is wonderful. That makes the taxiing very safe and easy. Have a good day!
Maybe someone of the community will create a mod for it :)
@@manuelkimpel3788 That would be a good idea.
And again a nice excellent video and a nice landing! Really helpful and exciting for me as a fligth simmer! Just one question: What does the Engine Anti ice has to do with the visibility on taxiing?
Thanks for watching and your kind words! Engine anti ice has to be on if there is visual moisture and the temperature is at or below 10 degrees Celsius. Visual moisture can show up very different. The most common type is rain or fog. But a visibility of 1500 meters or less is also defined as visible moisture. Have a nice day!
Enormous thanks for the crystal clear super informative video, you were a fine, fine team. Do you like VOR2 (automatically?) changing to the nearest transmitter, is it more helpful or more confusing especially near an unfamiliar airport? Danke Schön.
Thank you so much for watching and your question! If we want to use certain VORs during approach or departure, we tune them manually. If we do not do that, the Airbus may change the tuned VORs by itself during the approach or departure. This is true for VOR 1 and 2. We never use autotuning if we really need them, like on a VOR approach.
Came back to this after watching the Copenhagen Cat III approach. As an observer it seems so different between day and night, though I presume as pilots you’re focused on the instruments so presumably there’s little to no difference between day/night Cat III approaches?
As others have said, the communication and follow the greens are fantastic!
Thanks for also watching the LHR night approach. No, for us it is not different to do an autoland at day or night. We monitor the instruments and take over after landing or if we have to discontinue the autoland.
Hi Captain, thanks for the autoland lesson! Question: why did you use the non-standard Flaps 3 before gear down? Thanks!
Thanks for watching and your question! ATC instructs everybody to fly 160 knots to 4 DME at LHR. This is much faster than we usually would fly at 4 DME. So at 4 DME we need to reduce the speed as quickly as possible to final approach speed. That works best if the flaps are already at 3 and the gear is extended at 4 DME. During the gear extension, the gear doors open. This provides additional drag and helps in the deceleration.
Absolutely brilliant video. The trust that you have with ILS, does it really get your heart pumping ? What if it malfunctions etc??
Thanks for watching and the feedback! I trust the ILS. No heart pumping. This is all protected by multiple redundancy. Here are some examples: We have 2 ILS receivers. The signals which we receive are compared electronically. The ILS has a ground monitoring system which checks the quality of the signal. Also, the CAT3 ILS has to have a backup power source which takes over after a moment in case of a power outage. If the plane senses that something is wrong, a red autoland warning light tells us to discontinue the approach. And sure, if we are in doubt, we can abort the approach at any time and go around. My only concern is about how good or bad the landing will be. Sometimes the plane lands really nice, like in the video. Sometimes not so nice.
Excellent video, loved it! I didn't know LHR had a taxi system like that - are the green lights just for low vis ops or are they standard during darkness?
Thanks for the great feedback! As far as I remember, they are standard during night ops at LHR.
Correct. Green routes are on every night.
Wieder ein tolles Video! Vielen Dank fürs Teilen!
Wird, wenn „Flare“ im PFD steht der Thrust auf Idle und dann auch Reverse gestellt oder macht das Flugzeug ersteres im Autoland alleine?
Sind die grünen Lichter in LHR so eine Art Taxi Leitsystem und nur auf den für das Flugzeug vorgesehenen Taxiways aktiv oder sind das einfach die „Hauptaxiways“?
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das gute Feedback! Der Autothrust setzt bei einer automatischen Landung automatisch den Thrust auf Idle. Beim Retard Callout in 10 Fuß zieht der Kapitän dann auch die Gashebel auf Idle. Die Triebwerke laufen zu dem Zeitpunkt bereits im Leerlauf. Mit dem Aufsetzen des Hauptfahrwerks zieht der Kapitän dann die Gashebel auf Idle Reverse oder Max Reverse, je nachdem was erforderlich ist. Die grünen Lampen in LHR sind ein Leitsystem. Man folgt immer den Lampen. Sie werden individuell für jedes Flugzeug geschaltet. Vor einer roten Stopbar muss man stehen bleiben.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos vielen Dank für die Erklärungen!!
Only last night I was scrolling looking for a full night arrival video to study from and now you post this, great timing! I have one question though, when do you decide to use wing/engine anti-ice on the airbus? Is it a certain temperature or..? Curious how it's done. Great video!
Thanks for watching and your personal feedback! We switch on the engine anti ice when we are flying in visual moisture (clouds, rain, snow ….) and the total air temperature (temperature at the wings) is 10 degrees Celsius or less. Wing anti ice has to be switched on if we see ice buildup on the small (lighted) ice indicator outside of the cockpit window. Some airplanes also have an electric ice sensor which triggers an Ecam message if ice is detected. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thank you for the response! Great video, stay safe and have a good Christmas.
We need manual landing(Non precision approach) amazing 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for watching! This is the only non manual landing on this channel. All other landings are manual landings. The last completely flown non precision approach on this channel was an approach to Mykonos Island. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/HVBUA07bubM/v-deo.html In addition, you find lots of visual approaches or instrument approaches which ended as a visual approach on my channel. Have a nice day!
It seems to be pretty close to get fully configured at 1000 when you have to fly 160 to 4 DME. Have you expierenced any go around because of a late clearance to approach speed and a heavier tail wind or something similar? And I never get tired of watching your videos. I am looking forward to my next MSFS flight 😊.
As you see in the video, depending on the wind, the airplane variant and weight, it may be difficult to be established at 1000 feet above the runway. To give us the opportunity to follow these ATC instructions without violating the criteria for a stabilized approach, in these cases we have to be stabilized at 800 feet above the runway elevation. This usually works fine.
Just follow the green😊👍
Thanks for watching!
The "follow the greens" taxi is very interesting! Is it a newer system at airports like Heathrow? I imagine that it makes controlling aircraft movements a lot easier for ATC rather than giving instructions for every taxiway turn
I agree! This is a wonderful system and makes taxiing very easy for the pilots! It enhances safety! I do not know about the workload for ATC. They have to program the system somehow. If somebody from LHR ATC is reading this, could you please explain what you have to do to activate the correct lights for a particular airplane.
Awesome! Unlike most channels you don't beg people to subscribe to your channel, however this video alone has 10,000 viewers more than subscriber number, sure some of us may have rewatched the videos but I would really advise you to just add at the beginning of videos for viewers to 'subscribe and like'. As I said months ago, this channel is unique in that there are consistent NAV and HSI displays. I would love one video where I can just see what the engine parameters are during landing, comparing the N speeds with the EGT difference between both engines, but I have A3xx FlightdeckAirlinesim for now where both engines have the same engine speeds and EGT readings which is boring! All the best!
Thanks for watching my videos over a long time! I really appreciate your feedback and keep your suggestions in mind. I would love to show engine parameters but did not find an ideal camera location for the recording until now. I hope to come up with a solution in the future. Have a nice day!
Im am just wondering: Do you have to contact ATC again when parked at the gate? I heard Delta do it at 9:45 but didn't see the Eurowings crew do it in this case. Is it mandatory or just a SOP thing?
During low visibility operations you have to call when you are clear of the active runway (safety area). Other calls, like arriving at a certain position or the stand are usually only required if ATC instructs you to do so. May be the other plane was instructed prior by ATC to report when at the stand. We did not receive such an instruction from ATC. ATC anyhow knows where the airplanes are on the airport due to the transmission of our transponders and the ground surveillance radar system. Have a good day!
Another great approach and interesting to see the IFR procedures being used. I was interested to hear why you thought 800m IRVR was good what is not good?
LHR 27R CATIIIB RVR min is 75m-75m so below it is not good.
Thanks for watching and your question. 75 m RVR or more is required for this approach. If the RVR would fall below 75 m on short final, we would have to discontinue the approach. So the weather was much better than the minimum.
WOW !!!!!!
Thanks for your great feedback!
hi from australia
Greetings to Australia! Please tell all your aviation friends in Australia about my channel! Thanks in advance! Have a nice day!
Mal wieder ein großartiges Video! Ich habe in der Dunkelheit ein wenig die Orientierumg verloren, verstehe ich das richtig, dass ihr über Taxiway Kilo von der Nordseite auf die Südseite gerollt seid? Wenn ja, seit wann sind die Bauarbeiten dafür abgeschlossen?
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das Feedback! Ja, wir sind von Norden kommend über Kilo gerollt. Für uns als Crew das erste Mal nach dem Ende der Bauarbeiten. Seit wann genau die beendet sind, weiß ich nicht. Einen schönen Tag noch!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos
Danke für die Antwort!
that taxi system really is nifty
I agree, it is a wonderful system and improves flight safety! Have a nice day!
No matter how much you trust the automation low visibility due to fog always gives you chills.
Any tip for night landing? Flare is quite difficult to do in the night as unable to judge the rate of descent.
Thanks for watching and for your question. If you do a manual landing during the night or in limited visibility conditions, you must make sure that you include in your scan the outside view and the instruments. The descent rate during the approach on short final should be groundspeed x 5 for a 3 degree glideslope. Keep the rate until the radar altimeter shows 20 to 30 feet, depending on the weight and if it is an A321, 320 or 319. With higher weights, start the flare at 30 feet, with lower weights at 20 to 25 feet. Your pitch during the approach will be usually about 2.5 degrees. During the flare, you bring it up to about 5 degrees. At 20 feet you move the thrust levers to idle. Now you just do some fine adjustments to your flare and wait for the touchdown. Let me know, if this works for your. Have a great day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos that worked just perfect. Tried manual landing in night on my sim. It was on the markers, on the centerline with -14fpm. Thanks for the help😊👍🏻
I had no idea a plane could land itself. That was interesting.
This is only required in dense fog. The airport must have special (very expensive) installations, the plane must be approved for it and the pilots need special simulator training for that. Also the number of arriving and departing airplanes has to be reduced if autoland operations are in progress.
It's cool that this video is at Heathrow - because the Brits invented autoland (on the Hawker Siddeley Trident) for exactly this kind of visibility! :D
so even the flare is done by the autopilot ? thats amazing, it was so smooth
Yes. The flare is done by the autopilot during autoland. This landing was very smooth. But the Airbus is behaving like a normal pilot. Some automatic landings are smooth. And some others are not that smooth.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for your answer :)
Hello I have a question where did u go to the flight school
As I do have FAA and EASA ATP licenses and Airbus A320 ratings in both licenses, I visited over the years several training facilities on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. My EASA Airbus rating was done in Toulouse in France at the factory trainung center. My US Airbus rating was done at the Pan Am flight academy.
beatiful video, but i think to saw the video with approch to orio al serio bergamo, i dreamed?
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I am sorry about the Bergamo video. It is not available right now. Have a good day!
How unbelievably easy was that taxi to the gate? 😮😮Microsoft Flight Simulator do use all a favor and follow the greens.
I agree! Very easy taxi. You won't expect that at such a big airport!
Thanks to the wonderful woman at the ATC who said that everytime :)
Never watched a night landing before... very interesting! I know London relatively well so it was also rather nice to be able to spot items other than the obvious ones. As others have said, the "follow the greens" system made it easy to navigate after leaving the runway. Is this unique to LHR though... can anyone advise?
Thanks for watching and the detailed feedback! I only know the "follow the greens"-system in London Heathrow. I have not seen something like this at other airports. Maybe at is available at other airports but I have not been there in fog or during the night. This system is wonderful. It makes taxiing in the dark or in foggy conditions on that big airport very easy.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I see... thank you for your prompt reply. I shall continue to watch. Although I have no particular connection with the aviation industry, I simply enjoy flying very much. Incidentally I find large airports such as Heathrow fascinating but in fact live very close to Birmingham Airport and it is very useful to me... I've been flying to various European mainland destinations recently, since before the pandemic and subsequently. Birmingham's comprehensive European network has made this particularly easy to do. So I guess this is a shout out to some of our "less sexy" airports, providing a very useful resource.
Do ATC always sound so muffled? The first 5 minutes the controller sounds very muffled and tinny?
ATC sounds good to me. Nothing special in the first 5 minutes. This are humans and everybody speaks a little different, like in the normal life. Important for us is that the instructions are precise and easy to unterstand. The ATC people in London always do a great job! Many thanks to them!
Full auto land 👌
Correct!

mir gefiel stetz dat "eindrehen" um gerader linie dort zu landen -hinten die letzten sitzreihen sind super (ganz vorne geht leider nicht) dürfen piloten selbst entscheiden welche art von sinkflug geflogen wird ?
An großen Flughäfen, wie London ... gibt es von der Flugsicherung im Anflug immer sehr genaue Vorgaben, was die Geschwindigkeit, Höhe, Flugrichtung ... betrifft. Das müssen wir alles zeitnah und exakt umsetzen. Wie hoch die Vertikalgeschwindigkeit ist und wie wir die erreichen, ergibt sich dann aus den Vorgaben der Flugsicherung. Wir tracken immer mit, ob wir im Rahmen des standard Sinkflug-Profils zu hoch oder zu niedrig sind und korrigieren entsprechend.
I am first.
Awesome video, as always. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! Have a nice day!
Are you planned on a flight to Tunisia.. we'll like a video there
I would love to record and publish a Tunisia video. But it depends on my schedule. Nothing is planned during the next days. But over the next months, I hope to be scheduled to one of the airports. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Super! Eurowings will fly DUS-MIR this summer.
What tower controller said after landing clearance?
The wind and in a second transmission the actual RVR (runway visual range) measurement value of 800 meters. That is the visibility along the runway.
Kennedy Steve would last 5 minutes in that very polite tower 😂
This won't be the right workplace for him. That for sure.
14:34 nice of heathrow to add a kiss at the end isn't it? ^_^
I did not see that kiss. But I may have overseen it.
Why at Heathrow do they say “when localiser established descend on the glide” when they could just say “cleared ILS approach” etc like most other places?
Thanks, this is an interesting question. I do not know the answer. The wording they use reflects what the Airbus is doing anyhow when intercepting an ILS. First the plane intercepts the localizer and then the glideslope. At other airports you are usually cleared directly for the ILS with the same result. I assume that there may be autoflight systems available which are able to intercept the glideslope before tracking the localizer.
UK R/T manual: "When a controller wishes a pilot to descend on the ILS glidepath from a level which is above the published level that intercepts the ILS glidepath at the Final Approach Fix, the controller may use the [following] alternative form of phraseology" - as above.
If the aircraft is 'cleared ILS approach', it implies clearance for the procedure as per the chart. Since the platform altitude for the approach is 2500', cleared ILS implies descent clearance to 2500' straight away. This is not a good idea, as there may be conflicting traffic at similar levels, or perhaps the base of controlled airspace is too high (for full ILS clearance) at the point that the aircraft will intercept the localiser.
bei taxi light von light zu reden ist aber auch ne übertreibung
A320 CAT III Autoland. Damned. Pure aviation porn. 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Have a great day!
Is the follow the greens thing new or no?
The green light taxi system have been in use for many years - at least since 1974. However, these days it is much more software driven whereas 'back in the day' the whole of one side of the Visual Control Room was an electro-mechanical system operated by an Air Traffic Control Assistant; it was popular position to man as it was very satisfying and great fun.
Thanks for the detailed explanation! This answers also my questions. Have a nice day!
@@concise707 Appreciate the reply
