      Even in the evening, the sun can overpower the camera and cause it to overheat. So, that's why I was on the right side. I always figure, seeing something is better than seeing nothing because the camera quit working haha. The view wold've been great on the other side though. Thanks for watching my friend!

      I & my family spent 15 days crossing the Pacific from SFO to Guam.
      On Thanksgiving day, a typhoon that had hit Guam made its way on East & as we were in the dining room waves came over the deck, knocking out the portholes & flooding the room.When we docked, our base housing was flooded.Never wanted to see that agaìn.I can swim but am afraid of water.Flew back home to Travis AFB in California. I do not like flying over water, even a pond!!!!

    Just back from Oahu on Hawaiian Airlines Airbus A330 and have flown the 737 SouthWest flight once before from San Diego. Thought the cabin felt a little cramped for a long haul flight on the 737? It's doable but not as comfortable as a wide body.

      Hopefully. They are the hardest to film. I planned to do one on my trip in September. An overnight ANA 787-9 from NRT-SIN. Unfortunately, even though it was a red-eye, the cabin crew kept the lights in the cabin on full blast the entire flight. Which means all you could see in the window, was the reflection of the cabin. A lot of things have to go right for those flights to work out.

    So you call this Reverse Flow because he didn't complete the procedure turn, and just landed straight-in?

    • @sla31
      @sla31  Рік тому +2

      No, because OGG has a very standard approach from the opposite direction because of the strong Pacific trade winds. That being an approach that brings you around the island, through the valley, to land on Runway 02. In this instance, due to an unusual weather system often called “the Kona winds” we landed strait over the water on Runway 20. I.e., reverse flow. A very rare approach at OGG, who like other airports like LAX or HNL, have almost year-round steady winds form one direction.

    • @CockpitScenes
      @CockpitScenes Рік тому

      @@sla31 Well, that's pretty much what I said. BTW, I have landed east many times at LAX late at night when the winds are light. They do that for noise abatement. On the north runways they land east, and on the south runways they takeoff west. It's very disconcerting at night when you see a plane taking off toward you...

    • @sla31
      @sla31  Рік тому +4

      Well yes, you and I both said it was a straight in approach, but that’s not sole the reasoning. And I didn’t want people with less aviation knowledge of the jargon to think that was the sole reason for calling if a reverse flow operation. For example, at LAX, as you mentioned, they do reverse flow operations sometimes overnight for noise abatement. But in that situation, the exact opposite happens. Where as here, the reverse flow caused us to basically have a straight in approach. In Los Angeles, assuming you’re coming in from the rest of the United States, you have to do the exact opposite. You end up flying past the airport, flying over the ocean, turning 180°, and then landing. Anyway, we’re both saying the same thing, I just wanted people reading this to be able to understand what we’re talking about as best as possible. Thanks for watching my friend!
