    Have you ever wondered about why the Airbus A320 gives out the Howling noise when it flies over you on approach? Or what that barking sound is as you have just pushed back? Maybe you have been flight-spotting and wondered about why the Boeing 737 and the Airbus A320 sound so different during takeoff?
    In todays videos I will be explaining a few of these phenomenons and I think you will be surprised!

    I've been a technical training developer, trainer and evaluator for over 35 years. Few people understand how difficult it is to simply explain complex subjects to a non-technical audience. You do a magnificent job sir. 5/5. You understand your material and target audience, and consistently maintain your discussions at that level. For those that are not professional trainers; it is VERY difficult to train technical subjects without level jumps and slipping into using technical jargon without explanations. I commend you sir for a great channel with interesting and educational content.

      Oh my friend you’re not crazy. I work in ground handling at my local airport and I always know what kind of aircraft is taking off without looking. I only realised I’d subconsciously learnt this when I spooked my entire team when the 787-800 landed but I had no way to see it from my position and remarked. “Oh the Dreamliner is down.” (The common name of the 787.)

    I finally know what the Bus whine on approach is - thank you. I work at an airfield over which eastbound aircraft fly on approach to Boston. They typically are at 9500 or so according to FR24 so a bit higher then you mention. I finally identified the Airbus as the noise maker after repeated tracking of individual flights. Had now idea what that noise was.

It isn’t long before I’m soothed back into a good mood.

    Here's one I heard recently. From the emergency exit door, right at rotation and touch down, a loud whistling sound that rose in pitch, ending with a pop. I thought maybe it had to do with cabin air pressure and a leak in the exit door seal. I told the attendant when I disembarked.

      Exactly my thoughts on it, reminds me a bit of the sound of huge capacitors charging up on something like a big pulse laser or a railgun or coilgun! The high pitched sound of that power building gives me goosebumps every time! About a month ago on my commute home from work I had the good luck to pass Cleveland's airport right as a jet (even though the highway is right next to the airport and they fly right over as they land, there are ofc way less flights these days) flew directly over me to land! My windows were down and it made that incredibly powerful noise, so now I know it was an Airbus!

    On the last point about the high pitched sound that the A320’s vents make, I think it’s similar to the whistle P-51 Mustangs make when they’re doing acrobatics. Apparently, the whistling comes from air moving over the gun ports during certain angles of attack.

I first tought it was the V2500 engine, then they operated the CFM's an got that noise too, i thought it was the Wingfences, then they brought the Sharklets but still making that lovely nice sound, but my anwser finally came with this video.

    When I hear that howling noise I take a look in Flightradar24 and it's always a British airways Airbus 319/32x. Approaching GOT from London. But I thought it was the engines, so thanks for explaining it is the holes.

    Came here to learn about the PTU barking sound, but also was pleasantly surprised to see the sound I hear so often (14:07) explained. I live under one of the final approach paths for MAN about 15nm away, so I hear it pretty much daily, depending on the wind directions.

    I always thought the barking sound was the pilot testing the rudder. Oh well, you learn something new every day! I also live in the approach path of Manchester, and I like the howling sound, didn't realise it was only the a320 until today. 🙂

    Hello Mentour, great video as usual. One thing that wasn't covered which could worry some nervous flyers is why the engine noise, particularly in front of the engines, changes from a whine or roar into more of a 'Buzzsaw' at high power (such as takeoff and climb). My understanding is that it happens when the fan blades spin supersonic. Is that correct?

    There is a particular sound that i always hear on every a330 when i am sitting close to the wings (it sound like a metallic clunking noise followed few seconds later by a low pitched hiss) but i never found out what it is but my theory is that it might be something to do with the landing gear. it does that every two minutes or so when the plane is taxing . i would be curious to know what that sound is.

    Dear Mentor Pilot , is there any extra reserve of power on takeoff that can be extracted from the engines in an emergency, or are you at 100% and that’s it , you used to here of extra boost that could be drawn on old piston engines for say for 5 minutes. Great channel keep up the good work.👍

    • @MentourPilot
      @MentourPilot  4 роки тому +20

      A little bit is still there if we fire-wall the thrust. Up to around 103%

    • @MartinNeep
      @MartinNeep 4 роки тому +4

      David Watt There’s a customer option on the 737-800 whereby an additional 1000lbs of thrust can be used for takeoff. If available, it can be selected in the FMC and is labelled ‘27k bump (TO-B)’.

    This was awesome to watch/listen to. The 737 and A320 are the only commercial jets that come into Queenstown (despite it being an intl airport...yay mountains and mad terrain), and I live not far from the end of the runway, and this clarifies how I can tell who/what's taking off or landing far more clearly than my educated guessing!

    I used to fly for work alot in the 90's and 2000's. Most of the flights were MD80's. I always wondered what the sound was during landing from below that sounded like a pump or something. It was like a mediumlow pitch siren sound.

  • @JoshuaMichail0
    @JoshuaMichail0 Рік тому +1

    I had thought the "barking" sound under the wings was screw gears moving as the landing gear were being deployed. So, even though I was wrong about it, I was still thinking it's a typical sound from normal operations. Lol

    I am a bit of a nervous flyer, so your videos are really great for me to understand what is going on! I used to be really afraid of flying when I was a kid (afraid of heights combined with travel sickness), but once I got on a 'testflight' for firsttime flyers it has been a lot better. (Little cityhopper going from Amsterdam to Zurich and back). Yeah sure, I still get nauseous when hit with bad turbulence and if I am not able to see an horizon when the plane takes a turn... but at least I can sit back and be comfortable most of the time.
