One of my favourite videos, love how the Tower Controller handles himself on the frequency, always very polite and very good information and communications.
Thank you for watching and the great feedback! I try to make more videos with the PFD camera picture. It may not always be possible but there will be more videos with the PFD camera coming in the future.
I was flying in NEO few days back as a passenger and I have to say it's an amazing airplane. The noise level is minimal. You know when an airplane starts acceleration on the runway and it push you back, and that engine sound... there is no loud engine sound at all. It was the same feeling like sitting in Tesla for the first time. You see the car is moving and you hear artificial engine sound but it's not even close to other engines. This was an amazing experience. I just love this airplane.
Thanks for your detailed report about the A320 NEO. I agree, it is a wonderful airplane and the noise level is minimal! Interestingly the climb performance is better than the performance of the CEO. And it needs 20 % less fuel.
Thanks for your comment! What I like so much about Mallorca is the diversity of things you can do. And during our approaches we have the chance to checkout all that from above. I really enjoy the views every time.
Great video, I especially like the split screen format showing closeups of intruments and how they look and behave in real flight which is not something you really get to see much on a full size sim let alone a real aircraft. So thanks to all involved in the making of this video!
Hi Jörg! Super! Vielen Dank fürs gute Feedback! Das freut mich wirklich sehr. Schließlich bist Du ja Experte. Bis hoffentlich bald einmal und alles Gute, Stefan
Danke für dieses tolle Video aus Palma de Mallorca. Es macht mir immer eine große Freude, den Approach nach Palma de Mallorca zu beobachten. Gerne weitere Videos aus Mallorca! 👍🏼
Good suggestion. I would love to add the ND. But it is more complicated than said. Until now, I was unable to find a good and safe camera location which gives a readable picture of the ND. For example, for this video the PFD-camera also recorded the ND. But due to the angle and reflections, I could not use that part of the recording.
Danke für diese tollen Einblicke! Als ATPL Flugschüler eine tolle Motivation, denn genau das möchte ich mein ganzes Leben machen ✈️ Ein super Kapitän, der auch mal ein Lob ausspricht :) Ich würde gerne mal mit Ihm fliegen!
Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen und das ausführliche Feedback! Als Pilotinnen und Piloten müssen wir uns immer fragen: War bzw. ist alles ok? Können wir was anders oder besser machen können? Wie war unsere Zusammenarbeit? .... Wenn alles super geklappt hat, ist Lob genauso wichtig wie die Kritik, wenn was verbesserungswürdig ist oder war. Weiter viel Erfolg und vor allem Spaß bei der Ausbildung! Vielleicht sehen wir uns ja demnächst mal im Cockpit,
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Vielen Dank für deine Antwort! Deine Worte über Lob und Kritik werde ich mit in meine weitere Ausbildung und meinen weiteren Weg als Pilot nehmen. Ich würde mich sehr freuen dich mal im Cockpit zu treffen! Ich werde mein bestes geben im Assessment :) Ich freue mich auf weitere Videos!
Super Landung und eine Top Zusammenarbeit von Euch beiden! 👍🏼 Beeindruckend wieviel Traffic in LEPA ist. Gerade auf der ATC Frequenz. Keep it up and have a good flight! 😎
Thank you so much for the great feedback! The status of the flight management system changes to CAT I as soon as the autopilot is switched off. CAT III status requires the autopilot on for an automatic landing. I did the final approach and the landing by hand, so the status changed. In general, an automatic landing would be possible at Mallorca airport. But we can do that only if air traffic control grants protections for the beam of the instrument landing system. This is typically done if the weather is foggy and you cannot see the runway at the normal approach minimum.
Goid question: They both fly very similar during the approach. The NEO climbs much better, uses less fuel, makes less noise, and generates less emissions. If I could choose, I would always take the NEO.
Another great video, many thanks. I thought that showing us the PFD was really very very good! I liked that. Possibly, though, showing the backward looking view of both fo you was almost too much - Captain, PFD, First Officer would be ideal for me! But very smooth approach and landing!
Wieder ein tolles Video und schöne Landung - vielen Dank! Die PFD cam ist super! Darf ich zwei Fragen loswerden?: was ist das piepen bei 2:20? Und was genau ist der trigger für das Fahrwerk? Dachte 1000ft AGL / 4 nm aber hier fahrt ihr es schon etwas früher..
Vielen Dank fürs gute Feedback! Das Piepen habe ich auch gehört und mich gewundert. Ich vermute, dass es ein Piepen ist, das auf der aktiven Funkfrequenz von jemand anderem gesendet worden ist. Vielleicht ein Equipment-Test oder so etwas. Es kann auch auf der Notfrequenz gewesen sein, die wir parallel immer mithören. Was das Ausfahren des Fahrwerkes betrifft, gibt es keine genaue Höhenvorgabe. Ziel ist es, im Normalfall in 1000 Fuß über der Höhe des Flughafens in Landekonfiguration mit ausgefahrenem Fahrwerk und Landeklappen in Endanfluggeschwindigkeit unterwegs zu sein. Etwa zwischen 4 und 7 Meilen passt das Ausfahren des Fahrwerks meist ganz gut. Das hängt natürlich auch davon ab, ob und welche Geschwindigkeitsvorgaben im Anflug von der Flugsicherung gemacht werden. Das Fahrwerk hilft aufgrund seines Widerstands auch sehr gut dabei, bei Bedarf schnell viel Geschwindigkeit oder/und Höhe abzubauen.
Tolles Video, insbesondere mit dem Sichten von Sidestick und PFD - da konnte man das Zusammenspiel sehr gut erkennen - insbesondere mit Blick auf den Glideslope. Mir persönlich als begeistertem Simulatorpiloten auf (Fenix A320 im FS und Toliss A319, 321 und 340 in X-Plane) helfen solche Einblicke aus der echten Praxis auch immer weiter (neben dem Entertainment-Faktor... ). PS: Kann es sein, dass wir am Montag 08.08. zusammen von LEPA nach EDDW geflogen sind? 🙂 Falls nicht: Sorry für die Verwechslung!
Vielen Dank fürs gute und konstruktive Feedback. Zukünftig wird es öfter Videos, in denen auch das PFD zu sehen ist, geben. Das geht - genau wie beim Sidestick - nicht immer, aber wenn möglich, werde ich es einbauen. LEPA EDDW war eine andere Crew. Weiter viel Spaß mit dem Simulator!
Thanks for watching and your feedback. This summer, there was an aircraft carrier parked for a while near the military harbor. Did you come with this big ship?
klasse Video und Glückwunsch zum ersten Neo flight...Klasse jetzt auch mit PFD view. Wie fliegt sich den die NEO im Vergleich zur CEO ? Ich liebe die Akustik der LEAP Triebwerke.
Vielen Dank fürs gute Feedback. Der NEO liegt gut und stabil in der Luft, steigt besser und landet sich sehr gut. Darüber hinaus braucht er deutlich weniger Sprit. Ich hoffe auf weitere Flüge mit dem schönen Flieger.
Abo ist geklickt. Sensationell guter Kanal und völlig unterbewertet. Bild und Ton Qualität erste Sahne. Wie viele Legs fliegt Ihr denn so am Tag, wenn Hochsaison ist? Freue mich auf weitere Videos
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und fürs gute Feedback! Meist sind es zwei oder vier Legs. Bei kürzeren Flügen werden gerne auch vier Legs geplant und bei längeren Flügen nur zwei.
Hello, great video! I noticed there was an arual alert on rollout when the autobrake (?) was disabled? Is that a NEO option? Also, what were the messages that the FO kept canceling on his DCDU (also with an arual alert) on approach? Thanks!
Thanks for the good feedback! Your observation is correct: There was the autocallout "autobrake off" announced when I hit the brakes and canceled the autobrake. This is a feature of the NEO we flew. I do not know if this is standard or an extra option. I never saw this feature on an A320 CEO. We used the DCDU during the flight for ATC communication. During the approach this digital communication was ended by ATC, which is normal. The plane and ATC continued to communicate further and there were some connect and disconnect messages showing up, which were cancelled by the First Officer as Pilot Monitoring.
Yes. They did and they know the contents. Before the audio of this video starts, the crew asked ATC about speed restrictions during the approach. ATC answered that there are no ATC speed restrictions and that flying „your own speed“ is approved. That was done. So the crew flew 250 knots below 10000 feet and used optimum speeds for the rest of the aproach. By the way: Even after the own speed approval, ATC can always advise the crew to fly a certain speed or to continue with standard speeds.
@@Slabbss Yes, the speedbrakes are a really good tool. Especially good if you need the additional drag only for a short while. For example to slow down for flap extension.
During the approach with an Airbus 320, the lowest selectable airspeed is calculated by the airplane on the basis of the original, from the pilots entered weight from the load sheet without fuel (Zero Fuel Weight) plus the remaining fuel in the tanks. This speed is shown in the MCDU-display. Also the plane does an independent computation of its weight and the resulting speed on the basis of aerodynamical data. This speed is shown on the PFD (primary flight display). Prior landing, we compare the speeds and use the higher of the two as basis for the approach speed on final.
Why did the pilot turn off auto-pilot very early at about 3000 ft when glideslope was already locked? He was just in a mood to fly the aircraft by himself manually? What if he let the ILS control the aircraft till 500 ft. above and then he hand flew it?
The pilot flying decides when to switch off the autopilot. I usually switch it off at about glideslope intercept. Other pilots may disconnect earlier or later. Legally, you can fly the approach down to 500 feet or even lower, if the minimums are lower, with autopilot on. Disconnecting earlier gives the pilot more time to become comfortable with the amount of inputs needed on this day with this airplane.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks.. When you disconnect autopilot and fly with sidestick do you only look at the flight director (and those 2 pink rhombus shapes) while providing manual inputs to the sidestick or also look at the actual live view? Another question: If a runway and the aircraft both are equipped with CATIIIC then why not always do full autoland.. why to use it only during bad weather?
The Mallorca-ILS-Signal has a good range and quality. You usually receive it very early if you are not too far away from the centerline. I only have FAA data handy, but EASA and ICAO may be similar: FAA requires a standard normal ILS to give a good signal up to 28 nautical miles away if you are +/- 10 degrees of centerline. Due to obstacles and terrain, the range may be reduced and the signal may be completely unusable down to a certain distance. Especially if you are mre than 10 degrees off centerline and far away, Localizer and Glideslope indications may be completely wrong.
I've just found your channel and it's great to see you hand flying the aircraft from a long way out - more pilots should do it! One question about the NEO: is there much difference in the handling (especially when landing) between the NEO and the CEO? I know that many CEOs have sharklets now, but do the physically bigger NEO engines have any effect?
Thanks for the good feedback! I only did a few landings with the NEO. The landings have not been different from CEOs with sharklets. I flew approaches with autothrust on and off. The large NEO engines did not react differently than the smaller CEO engines. I expected a little more delay when advancing the thrust at the NEO, but that was not the case. Other advantages are: Less fuel consumption, less emissions and better climb performance. The engine start takes a little longer.
Thanks for your feedback and the kind words. The seat was brand new, but the seat cover moved a little in the upper right corner, showing the cushion. It was moved back later into the correct position and looks brand new again.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos that was fast :-) Thanks for the explanation ! One more question: It looks like the sitting position is quite higher than the input (Stick) and thrust Levers. Doesn't that feel "uncomfortable" ? I can only compare to a care where i prefer to sit "in" the cockpit not "above"... Not sure if this makes sense but curios about your thoughts
Das Gute ist ja, dass jeder frei entscheiden kann, wo er hinreist. Ich finde Spanien - und natürlich auch Mallorca - sehr vielfältig und schön. Seit den 80ern hat sich überall eine Menge in die positive Richtung getan. Das ist zumindest mein Eindruck.
One of my favourite videos, love how the Tower Controller handles himself on the frequency, always very polite and very good information and communications.

Really smooth, more power, climbing better, and with less fuel. Like a Mooney.
You are right! The Mooney-airplanes from the General Aviation world are also good examples for very efficient airplanes.

Hello, awesome video as always, I have just noticed that sometimes the captain asks for a Vls check, and they add 1 or 2 knots, why is that? :)
During the approach with an Airbus 320, the lowest selectable airspeed is calculated by the airplane on the basis of the original, from the pilots entered weight from the load sheet without fuel (Zero Fuel Weight) plus the remaining fuel in the tanks.

Hello and greetings from Florida!
ILS Signal incl glideslope from 50 nautical miles away? you're not getting this in MSFS2020 :D
The Mallorca-ILS-Signal has a good range and quality. You usually receive it very early if you are not too far away from the centerline. I only have FAA data handy, but EASA and ICAO may be similar: FAA requires a standard normal ILS to give a good signal up to 28 nautical miles away if you are +/- 10 degrees of centerline. Due to obstacles and terrain, the range may be reduced and the signal may be completely unusable down to a certain distance. Especially if you are mre than 10 degrees off centerline and far away, Localizer and Glideslope indications may be completely wrong.
I've just found your channel and it's great to see you hand flying the aircraft from a long way out - more pilots should do it!
One question about the NEO: is there much difference in the handling (especially when landing) between the NEO and the CEO? I know that many CEOs have sharklets now, but do the physically bigger NEO engines have any effect?
