- Hello everyone, glad to welcome you back to this video of the Swiss a220 noseview landing at London City Airport.
It has been a while. The pandemic brought a halt to our London city operations, and so I got rather excited when I received this flight with one of my favourite captains on the cseries.
We took off early in the morning to arrive around 8 o’clock at our destination. Crosswinds of up to 30 knots made this landing a very challenging one.
Also, this approach requires special training and procedures. For example, it is a six degree approach for both runways, 27 and 09. On the a220, the speedbrakes stay extended at about 30% during the entire approach. Il try to capture that next time I go to city as a wingview video for you guys.
If you guys feel like it, try a similar setup in Microsoft flight simulator on the same runway, you will appreciate this captains job even more when you know how hard it actually is to make it look so effortless and easy.
So I will let you enjoy the landing now, give this video a like and hit the subscribe button if you haven’t already fellas.
There’s more coming in the next few weeks, thank you especially to my patreon supporters, and of course to you, my subscribers.
Let me know in the comments below what you thought of this landing, the a220 and this special steep approach into London!

LCY is always something special. Such a steep approach, short runway and unfriendly weather..... it takes really skilled and professional hands to get it done just right. Thx a lot for taking us with you.
What do you mean it's sunny at least 2 days a year...
Very glad you enjoyed this one. Il try to go to LCY again the next few months, maybe I can catch a beauty like this again for you all.
Thank you for watching! Best greetings and also thx for the support!
I still can't get over how quick they can stop with the reverse thrust. Absolutely magnificent idea.
Now consider that LCY airport was initially designed in conjunction with, and for use by the BAE 146 type quadjet, which does NOT HAVE reverse thrust!
The reverse thrust is only a relatively small amount of stopping power , it’s the brakes that do the vast majority of the work, even on max reverse. Airliner brakes are hugely powerful and, in conjunction with anti-skid, can stop a plane eye-poppingly quickly.
@@marspp except when it's wet 😉
As a born and bred Londoner I still think it's a crazy place to build an airport. No chance for a Miracle on the Hudson [Thames] here.
@@BritishBeachcomber I think the East London docklands/Canary Wharf airport project was really targeted at financial sector operatives seeking mobility throughout European markets, but that's not the way it has worked out. As a touristic airport, LCY is woefully inadequate, and tourists will never recognize the intrinsic advantages of being a 10 min taxi run from Bank Street.
From a passenger approach this is the best airport in the UK, if not world. When at home I often see the LCY traffic flying overhead and when a passenger I love it coming in from the east along the Thames from Southend - sometimes I even see my own house out the window! Thanks for sharing.
That was the smoothest landing I've seen on UA-cam. Kudos to that pilot or first officer who ever landed that aircraft.
Especially on this runway! It's challenging cause you have to land it no matter what otherwise it's go around and lost of revenue!
@@boa974 like any other runway? 😅 you have to land it I mean..
@@boa974 You think a go around is expensive? Try crashing.
Gary, don’t think there’s a company out there that allows FOs to land at City. Captains only.
@@RomeoJulietCharlie I did not know that. I always thought all 1st officers could land at airport, for (training) I mean.
Landed here on Monday night at the tail end of storm Isha. Prior to the landing the pilot announced in a butter smooth Scandi accent that the landing would be "Sporty". It was, on the way down. It was like riding a bike over pave. Very smooth touch down but you could feel him working the rudder hard before the nose wheel hit the tarmac. Embraer 190. I love flying in and out of LCY.
Used to live by the docks and always hated the wind there. Last weekend was the 1st time I landed there - it was windy, shaky approach in the dark. Too close to the water for most passengers. Great and surprisingly smooth landing.
That landing was textbook. Absolutely beautiful :)
Thank you very much!
Your videos are the best. Always got excited when watching these! 👍💙🤗
Wow thank you very much! Cheers! Dom
I love city airport. So Easy to get to it .
Living in New Zealand 🇳🇿 thank you for the opportunity to join you from your perspective.
My adrenaline felt dare I say heightened orgasmic. The approach to the airport was like a needle
in a haystack. A sense of admiration safe landing by a truly remarkable team of professionals.
New Zealand has its share of hairy approaches... eg. Rongotai (Wellington International Airport).
Solid flying.
Didn't realise they added the new taxiway and got rid of the backtrack! Looks like a lot of new ramp space too.
The backtrack is still there when landing in the opposite (much more common) direction
The runway extension was completed in the early 1990s.
@@hb1338 The New Taxiway was completed in December 2020. The new Digital Tower went operational in April 2021 and is now Controlled by NATS from Swanwick
I flew out from London City Airport just once, to fly to my family in Dundee. I always remember the landing on Dundee's small strip next to the River Tay, but it's been great to watch the approach to City from the cockpit. I lived a few minutes away from London City so thanks for bringing back some great experiences and memories. Power to you!
I fly as a passenger on swiss from zurich to lcy usually every 6 weeks. As a PPL myself I never get bored of that flight. Amazing views of the alps on take off from zurich and than spectacular london at city. I particularly love the westerly approach on a clear summers evening when you get the sunset reflecting of the city towers. Never get board of this flight and looking forward to my next one from Zurich next week.
Impressive performance of both the flight crew and the aircraft. I have flown as a passenger several times into Chicago Midway airport, where the landings are always firm and braking is very intense due to the 6,500ft runways. Lol I can't even hold a camera still with the forces pulling me forward. I can only imagine what London City is like, considering you touched down firmly, braked hard, and didn't even use the entire runway length. The A220 shows here to be a plane with impressive capabilities!
Excellent video thanks, Dom, I was amazed at how quickly the A220 slowed on landing, very nice!
beautifull landing
Really nice landing
You guys make it look effortless - and it's NOT! Good work - always makes me want to applaud.
Peace of cake 😜. Beautiful 🙏🏼.
Great quality.
Nice to see my home from the cockpit of a plane 😂
I had the pleasure and the honour to fly into LCY this summer, seated on the left side of the plane, with an approach from the west. It was a beautiful day and we flew right past Buckingham Palace and the Eye, great view
that was very nice and different taxi too. i worked has an operation officer in Lisbon airport and honestly i never saw this method of taxi. normally planes taxi nose front to the gates and then to go back to taxi lane to depart, we use push-backs trucks to do it. so this basically eliminates the push-backs.
Good stick use. Perfect landing.
Seems like the 220 stopped like a car once it was on the ground it looked easy. Those new planes also seem to be screwed together better don’t hear all that trim rattle and semi like other plans when they touch.
Bombardier Mechanic power 🗿
Trim rattling can't be helped, came from galley carts vibrating when planes wheels go over the rwy lights.
@@user-jb5se7cv8m"Only worry when the noise suddenly stops" 😊
Last time I flew in a 737 about 8 years ago I was afraid. Everything shaked and rattled in the rear. Luckily I live in Europe and now I only fly Airbus.
It’s a combination of lighter electronic components mounted and a new airplane. There will probably be rattles that develop after years of service.
Great job Captain! Click, click (autopilot and auto throttles off, crab and land a little faster than normal)..DON’t FLOAT! Dave, 18,000 hours Boeing 767
Love this airport - love every small airport.
Wow! Such a flare!
Hats
off to you.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful video with us...
Just relived the landing to L C Y with you guys two years ago! Great landing, great airport to get into London with no lengthy queues.
Wow that's one landing strip not for the faint hearted, water on both sides and a bridge to navigate...nice landing
Excellent landing.
Thank you Sir, best wishes for 2023!
Nice approach, smooth descent and greased landing - nice job!
A very competent job.
A very good video, I am a Londoner, but now live in the East Coast area.
I love reading the comments so Informative im really geeking out here 😊
LCY on a BAe 146 was a regular many years ago always a fun place to operate a Approach or Departure From.
Indeed! I made several videos at LCY with the same camera perspective on the ARJ, both runways. I’m sure you’ll find them on my channel. Best regards and thank you for the comment!
I have landed at LCY many times, and the tight turn over the Shard never fails to scare me witless!
Absolutely lovely aircraft. Crisp and efficient landing. Great video.
THHAT WAS THE BEST SIM IVE EVER SEE
Awesome landing!
Beautiful landing. I watched the first landing of a Dash 7 here to test it's suitability for an airport. All the warehouses had been demolished and it was just a concrete slab. Then watched it grow into what it is now.
From my house on the coast in North Kent, at night you watch the planes on this flight path - all be it they are quite far away. Good to see it from this view !
I love the airport as a passenger, cause its more spectacular ;-) And its very fast to get in and out.
Very smooth landing for this airport!
One of the best flight deck views I have seen of a landing!
Thank you very, very much!
Impressive breaking! Love flying into LCY. So much to see and wow at! Crazy the digital ATC visual control tower is 80 miles away near Southampton. For those asking the new apron and full length taxiway were built in the past couple of years. They had to reclaim some of the dock - no easy task.
A beautiful Canadian jet the A220!
It’s the first bombardier that I am licensed for, and I am very happy to fly this modern and spacious little airplane around Europe.
The passengers love it, and so do we :)
Thank you for your comment!
Nice....spot on the PAPI and centerline
I was watching this and thinking “I don’t remember that alarm noise in the cockpit” - there was a pigeon outside my kitchen hooting away 🤣🤣😂😂
😂
Thrilling to watch from pilot's seat. Very smooth landing. Excellent video.
Thanks a lot! Cheers, dominic
Butter 🧈
Im first time viewer and now a subscriber just wanted say i love your videos thank you for really quenching my thirst for all things aviation especially your cockpit cam videos
Incredable video. Thanks for bringing us along.
very smooth landing with crosswind my deep respect for the captain and 1st officer for this wonderful job crosswind landing is the most challenging maneuver via landing
Wow! What a landing! Thank you for the video. All the best from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
great Canadian plane that will be in service years to come.
That takes Incredible skill and judgement. Absolutely superb. 👍🤩👏
Eastenders theme tune and this video go really well together. So relaxing.
Fantastic approach and landing with such windy conditions. Great flying.
Smooth landing
🛬 thanks
Piece of cake landing & a short haul down to the turn off. Marvelous. Thanks for posting. Best wishes.
What an amazing video mate!
I just wanted to say good luck, and we're all counting on you.
skills to pay the bills
Them brakes r magical
Excellent intro. The tone of the voice made me stay despite nothing was happening.
OMG, an approach slope of 6deg? With my Mooney Ovation I already find steep the 4.5 deg of Chambéry in France.
Also, the idea of info overlays on the bottom left screen is nice. Maybe next time you could add the air speed? It’s probably an important factor with a short runway?
Finally, good that you resisted the temptation to accelerate or decelerate the playback speed. Kudos.
I love the CS series, now named Airbus, I love plane spotting at London City and watched the E195E2 actually just stopped by there a couple months ago for testing.
Excellente définitions!
Holy shoot! That was the best landing I've ever seen!
I can see why you appreciate his skill set. That was well done. It looks JUST LIKE landing at Laguardia in Queens, NY. Over water approach, narrow strip with water off the side. Pretty challenging.
Absolutely loved the 'cloud skimming' then well the whole video 👍😊
Wow that was very impressive!! From the cloud busting at the beginning with the highlighted shadow of the aircraft on the clouds and all the way in to finally land! Nice piloting! Great video and sounds as always, I enjoyed this one, many thanks for sharing and stay safe brother!
Absolutely stunning views of London city approach beginning with descent from clouds. 😊 👍
Always fly from Dublin, Ireland to LCY. Always sit in last row window on right hand side. Such an easy 20 minute ride on DLR to centre of London. Prefer approach from West as this brings you right over the CITY, almost touching The Shard. Like flying used to be 😊. No hassle flying 😊
OMG! Landing a plane on that short runway is really a masterpiece! Congratulations to the pilot! - I can imagine that the heart slips downwards when you are to start the approach. 😄
Thank you so much dear Dominic for giving us this thrill! 💖🙂
No, it is a landing which the pilot has done many times before, and it presents no particular difficulties.
@@hb1338 Really? - For an ignorant like me 😄 it looks pretty dangerous. Thank you! 💖🙂
Thank you my friend, I was sure you will enjoy this landing.
The wind was very challenging on that day, and the point I tried to make was exactly that, it looks too easy compared to how hard it actually was. The film doesn’t show how many inputs were necessary to be right on the glide slope, so this one was rather challenging, even if already performed many times before on a calm day.
Take care see you in the next video!
@@dnhug Sometimes no job is easy... 😨💖🙂
Runway is just ordinary - 1500 meters. Plenty of room to land and stop in a safe way. More problematic are operations on such limited space. Some challenge is steepy approach but not big - plane is modified (mainly software) to control plane speed during such steep approach.
Fascinating! Thank you for continuing the videos with your family responsibilities. Yes, the captain made it look easy. All of the great athletes and opera singers make their work look easy too - that is the mark of excellence in one’s profession.
gorgeous
Superb landing that man!
Absolute butter.
8.41.. like butter.. so smooth!!! 👍 Mr. Pilot
The narrow runway enhances the illusion of a higher approach speed. Great video.
Really good experience coming down threw the low cloud. Superb landing. Excellent.
Wow! Impressive!!
what an extremely fast stop ! amazing
My favourite airport in the Sim. My big gripe of the newer Microsoft Sim is it doesn't park the aircraft the right way round. Always has them facing the terminal. For the old MS Sim I designed my own take on this airport and didn't find it that hard to get AI aircraft coming in and parking the correct way round. One day............ But it is fun to land there. Nice landing.
Flawless touchdown..
Amazing video! As an LCY employee, it's great to have you back and the A220 has to be my favorite aircraft. More of LCY please :D
The BAe 146 is cool as well.
MSFS 2020 looks so amazing now!!!
Great, thanks for making it. Lots of wing wobble all the way in but you hit the deck at exactly the right moment, well done 👊
Thank you very much for watching and commenting! Make sure you have subscribed! Dominic
Thanks for posting, true skill of that crew!
Thanks for taking the time to do it sir, my the A220 stops quick, quite suprised at that. Didnt also know they the had the run off down the bottom either....learn something every day ta for doing it.
amazing landing! But i was even more impressed about the short taxi to the gate. In less than 30 sec.
The best video I have seen from the cocpit pilot.
What a good job with that
Very glad you enjoyed! Working on a new LCY Video soon.
Cheers for watching and commenting!
That thing stops on a dime. Great video! Love a good London City approach.
WOW
Really cool video, I love the raw sound
This is the best channel because you explain details and procedures of landing, nice scenery I used to watch planes landing in london City airport during my University days in those white building on the right opposite the runway.
Brilliant ,great whatch
Thank you! More coming, I recorded a few beauties the last few weeks! Have a great weekend, cheers
