Having landed a 757 with no flaps at near maximum weight, I can say it's two things: the approach part is soooo fast nearly 200 knots, also as you approach the runway, there are no automatic "callouts" to guide you and almost NO FLARE, just fly it onto the ground
That no-flaps landing was so insanely scary. And that too, it seemed both the cameraman and everyone on the plane was perfectly calm and steady. Kudos to both passengers and the pilots!
@@michaelsteiger8509 still faster than usual, and as someone who has observed many *normal* landings before, i'm not used to seeing the approach so fast. Thanks for the info anyways :)
I amazed more by how the person filming the no flaps landing kept his camera as steady as he did than the landing itself. Even with some image stabilization, judging by the, "oops" on touch down, it was a hard landing.
Wow, that no flaps landing speed really showed how much slower normal landing speed at flaps 30/45 is. Made me appreciate the physics of the flaps. Reminded me of Concorde landings lol
First generation jetliners have less sophisticated flaps which is no different to WWII era prop liners, so a Boeing 707-320 requires 9000 ft of runway compared to a similar sized Boeing 737-900 of 7000 ft of runway. The 737 and 747 had benefited from 727 development utilizing more complex flap design of increasing wing area.
@@diegosilang4823You could theoretically land an empty 737 in 1000 meters, 7000ft is plenty. The "complex" flap design works well until Flaps 40. The MAX fixed that issue though
I used to fly corporate jets out of Dallas Love Field. I’ve also transported Marine One, a spare, the equipment used to maintain them, and the Marines who fly them on several occasions when the President has traveled. On separate missions I’ve also flown the presidential motorcade. Good times!
That antonov was a thing of beauty. How sad it got destroyed. I used to work part-time loading cargo planes when I was in college. One time they asked us to come for a special cargo we had to download and told us it was a big plane. We were all expecting a 747. Then someone said it was some type of “Russian” plane. The 225 Mriya showed up. The only thing similar I’ve seen after that was the A380. It was majestic; a marvel of engineering really.
Really incredible planes BUT the plane here didn't get destroyed as it was a smaller version as it only had 4 engines while the Mriya has 6. Antonov also isn't Russian but Ukrainian
in the video we can see antonov 124, we have plenty of them left, it was antonov 225 that got destroyed, we have parts left but it will cost a fortune to rebuild it
@@Syritis but that means that they were too low on approach , if I'm not mistaken, pilots always target to pass the threshold around 50 feet, so they should have been high, but as you say, when weather hits, it hits.
@@walterfink9782 Really, please do provided evidence because for everyone else that has ever watched a plane landing, knows that first touch down is mostly likely to break parts, especially on a hard touch down.
@@Syritis Commentary can be wrong. This didn't look like an extremely hard landing. It may have been enough to require an inspection before flying again though. (which could easily cause a misunderstanding that it was broken rather than it just being standard safety procedures being followed.)
Sorry, it was a very misleading title😂 a 737 does not break after a harsh landing, so change the freakin title But the landing of Southwest was very professional. Well done!❤
Yeah. From the looks of it, I find it doubtful that it was broken. The landing was a little hard, so they might have needed to do an inspection before the next flight.
A tap a330 struggled landing at terceira azores even the easy runway was at repair so it had to go back to lisbon to refuel then it was pushed away to sao miguel then it made a lot of go arounds then landed, absolute 32 staged hour flight
I remember flying air transat a310 coming into Jamaica and on final right before landing it felt like the airplane fell out of the sky briefly then we landed no issue but I remember the cabin was unsettled
When the aircraft reached the tail end part of the microburst, the wind is blowing to the back of the aircraft this cause the wings to lose some lift and the aircraft sink rate increased, so the pilots have to react quickly or ended up like Delta 191.
oh wonderful, that's the airline (first landing) I went back and forth across the Atlantic this summer, and on a 737 from Calgary to Toronto. Not my favorite airplane...
the plane in Switzerland hadn't even landed fully when the clip changed. touched down tail first and continued to drag on it with the mains off the ground
Wait wait wait wait why dose that AN cargo plane only have 2 engines on each wing? Now I’m not cargo plane expert but I’m a passenger Plant high experienced expert. I’m not old enough to fly plane though
I like the guy on the Southwest flight giving the plane encouragement. "You can do it, little 737!"
That was me 🙂
“You can do it little 737” ☺️
@@BeedeePizzleYOO THE ORIGINAL
That 737 no flaps landing was sweet! Great pilots.
Thankfully it was able to have flaps 1 or 5 but no landing flaps.
It was nice of the purser to give them a shout out before any other announcements
Yeag
@@Jeff-ct2xeright. This was partial flaps, not no flaps.
Airplane wings are fixed. They don’t flap like birds do
That WestJet landed like a Navy fighter on an aircraft carrier. There's a reason Navy jets have such massively strong landing gear.
and tail hooks too
Don’t see WestJet much on here…

The slats were extended….. it’s a no brainer in the airline world if you can extend the slate…2/3ds of the lift and the flaps take up the rest.

And the cabin crew.
I was the cameraman for the Southwest landing! It was certainly an interesting day.
Not really, as long the pilots know what their are doing. It just need to land faster and requires longer runway to land.
I amazed more by how the person filming the no flaps landing kept his camera as steady as he did than the landing itself. Even with some image stabilization, judging by the, "oops" on touch down, it was a hard landing.
i was thinking the same thing! steady camera, little to no banter, captured the landing from start to end, great camera work for sure.
They would have been filming with an ultra steady mode on since the fov is really bad
@hughjaanus6680the title is about the first clip
@hughjaanus6680 lucaas said that it got damaged
I think the title is a bit exaggerated so that people click the video

good thing that 737 in the title didn't brake the breaks
i'm curious what did break, the plane seemed to be tilted starboard a little.
The first landing happened on the island of Antigua at the V.C Bird International Airport. Nice to see my country made the list😊

1:57 that plane is kind cute
If you are a pilot, you learned how to land without flaps.
Landed before the touchdown zone? It landed before the threshold!😮
yeah, its actual illegal to do that so someone is going to get scolded
@@jostmathe it wasn't intentional, the commentary said it was caused by wind shear, and last i heard pilots aren''t responsible for weather.
@@jostmathe No dude....just no.
@@gregdobson8760 it is, a pilot is not authorized to land before the threshold
@@Syritis but that means that they were too low on approach , if I'm not mistaken, pilots always target to pass the threshold around 50 feet, so they should have been high, but as you say, when weather hits, it hits.
Reverse thrusters were applied before the nose wheel hit the ground on that 737, crazy how fast that approach was.
Landing without flaps is something pilots practice in the simulators so they know how to handle it, that said it's still scary as hell...
Before the touchdown zone? Dude landed before the displaced threshold, literally off the runway.
Yeah he's a little light on with his Aviation knowledge 😂😂
Nice video
So what vehicles are navy one and army one?
Been a passenger in a no flap landing (ironically with Westjet lol) - the approach definitely felt as it looked here on the southwest flight
Airport in the Caribbean is Antigua.
Great landing using brakes, not breaks.
no it really is break, the commentary said there was damage done to the plane. #confidentlyincorrect
@@Syritis After the plane landed, it started to brake, which in turn, the plane did break something.

Ryanair after seeing the first clip: YOU’RE HIRED
Breaks?
Brakes?* did the plane break when it hit the ground? im lost
break, the commentary said there was damage done to the plane
@@Syritis Doubtful. It might have just needed a hard landing inspection.
"I don't what you say, we got the best pilots" boy if I was on that flight. I'd cry and agree!

Bro has never been on a 727, or an Embraer or a crosswind landing on a Shorts 360.
Exactly how did it taste?
Breaks - it’s broken. Brake - applies BRAKES.
For ye old algorithm 👊
I just watched the marineOne video and saw your comment asking if you could use it and came to this video to see if you actually used it.
Ryanair: you’re fuckin hired man
Reverse thrust is discouraged to save fuel, but it has it's purpose. The C-17 can back up a four percent grade with it.
The 737 was damaged before they landed. They are lucky to be still alive.
How old is this?. I thought there exist no more Antonovs
Breaks the brakes... 😉
737 Brakes had to be HOT! Dont celebrate too soon now.

BRAKES..........not "breaks".
Not if it means that it was damaged after landing. The original uploader of that video said that he heard it was damaged during the landing.

2:53 i genuinely thought it was the 225 until he said 124 lol
big diff between breaks and brakes when you're landing an airplane
it can be a tricky relationship.
Because the wind shear or pilot error?
How do you know the west jet landing was wind shear?

Hey Lucaas. If you need more video's. I can send you some interesting aircraft footage if you would like. :)
That was a base model 737, so it doesn’t have ABS braking. It also looked like the pilot may have popped the clutch?

the way that the camera tracks it makes it look like a REALLY bad landing
I can't decide if I love the narrator's voice, or absolutely hate it ;)
I gotta say..I would like to experience a no flap landing, providing an uneventful stop of course.
