Orville Wright’s last flight was in a Lockheed Constellation. Not a 67…but to him, it must have felt like a Saturn V….. PS: we lived in CA for 20 years…and I really miss Sand Dabs😜
Hands down one of the best night approach videos due to the visibility and complexity of the low long descent right turn almost akin to Kai Tak approach . Thanks send more !
This was the last approach I flew into JFK in the 747 before I retired recently. So much fun and there’s nothing I wouldn’t give to still be doing it. Well done!
Good point! Years ago cities had a predominantly yellowish/orange glow from sodium lamps but as those are being replaced with LEDs they now glow with a whiter brightness.
@@davidc9424 I remember flying into China as a kid in the 80s. Every street had the exact same yellow lights even out in the country. Had a really cool atmosphere, seems really mysterious.
@@LegendLength OMG you flied to China in the 80s? I was learning its language and working for a while in China for about two years. In the 80s I am pretty sure very few people in China could speak English. My first experience to Beijing was in 1998. I am a Japanese, first time to China was from HK in 1997. Dragonair under Cathay Pacific. My first landing only by myself was at LGA at night. I was 18 and was not sure could understand English well or not. My host family was waiting for me. Never seen this kind of night also.
@@davidc9424 Those LEDs streetlighting for commercial areas use Kelvin 4500 which is intense. More residential communities are now going to softer LEDs with more of the old incandescent type soft light Kelvin 2700 providing that warm, cozy yellowish glow. I do miss sodium vapor color as they are quickly disappearing.
@christophergays3996, and I hate that lighting! The old low pressure sodium vapor lights were perfect for night time illumination. Cheaper to buy and operate LED lights make no difference to the consumer in the monthly light bill.
I so enjoyed seeing this nighttime landing video. The city was all aglow as well as the cockpit and the aerial views were stunning. Thank you very much for sharing this. A great video.
i always thank the pilots for a safe landing. i hope they appreciate their own efforts in navigating safely. i.ve flown in national airport (now called reagan international) during the daytime but this night landing in NY was gorgeous. thank you to all the pilots who get us safely to our destinations
I was born and raised on Long Island. I loved it when the 747's flew over my home coming into JFK. It always made a slightly different "sound" so I knew it was on of those jets. Loved watching this video. These pilots are incredible. I look at all the instruments there and to me, it's amazing how they can land those planes--especially at night!
That RNAV is an unusual instrument approach. Visual segments at the end (multiple waypoints with altitude restrictions) for noise abatement, missed approach instructions that I don't 100% understand. Look it it up, fun! And thanks for posting, DC Travels.
Yeah I agree... very dodgy in some respects, the pilot ignored the waypoint markers and was off centre compared to ILS instruction. Very suprising/eye brow raising... i wonder if the pilot was cautioned?
You clearly don't know what you're talking about. ILS approaches are not curved. This was an RNAV/ Canarsie VISUAL approach into 13L. It can be flown as an RNAV approach or the same with visual guidance. Regardless, this approach is largely visual if the weather is completely clear. This approach is also known as the parkway visual. Where they follow the highway until the lead in lights to the runway. There was also a significant crosswind from the left.
Another great view is driving westbound on the Belt Pkwy and seeing an A380 make this approach. I'm guessing the aircraft is making the last right turn is only around 200 ft. over the road. Often travel the Belt and have been lucky enough to see the A380 do this a couple of times. Thanks for upload, beautiful video.
This is a fantastic video. To see it from behind the pilots is very striking. What a great way to make a living. We passengers thank all the crew in the air and on the ground.
Great video. I had the great experience of observing a night landing from the right seat of a Twin Comanche into Fort Lauderdale. To watch our pilot pick his way through all that traffic to a safe landing was amazing!
A very spectacular landing and very skillfully executed. Thanks for the nice video. Boeing 767-300 is the plane on which I had my first flight in my life! Greetings from Ukraine!
Pretty cool, I remember when this airport was called Idlewild, when on August 19, 1961 I landed there in a VARIG Super Constellation G when I was 12, I am now 75 and wish they never changed the place to JFK!
Very cool - thanks for the upload. Brings back memories when I flew a CRJ in the area. Both day and night time visual approaches were good fun, especially into LGA from the west. "Ref the BQE highway, then left at the water tower" --
Although the weather is clear, it is always challenging to “ follow the rabbit” lights, do to a steady crosswind. Requires a good pilot hand flying proficiency. Cheers to this crew !
It was more scenic before 9/11 when we would fly over NYC Central and Times Square going into the western runways of LGA and JFK. Big city lights at night are stunning. Always looked at them as paintings on black velvet. But NYC is pretty nice. DFW and FTW is another amazing sight at night. But nothing in this world can compare to Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Very easy approach. Just follow the lead in lights, the sequential lights, or just fly into the lights of the cars on the Belt Parkway. Thats the busy road next to those lights. As a retired corporate pilot, I’ve flown this approach many times over the years, The fact I lived in NYC made this video all the more special. Thanks. If memory serves me correctly, this is the Canarsie approach, unless they renamed it ?? This approach is as much fun as shooting an approach into Kai Tak, no longer there. I’ve flown into there five times in my life, and lived to talk about it.
It has not been renamed, and it was never called the "Canarsie" approach, even though it uses the Canarsie VORTAC as a waypoint. It is called the "Parkway Visual" though indeed pilots do tend to refer to it informally as "Canarsie".
This was my favorite approach to JFK flying the B767-300ER in the 80's and 90's, arriving at night every time. Began with the Camrn Arrival from the Southeast and then vectors to join the Canarsie VOR Approach to runways 13L/R. After the Canarsie VOR you just follow the Lead-in lights to the runway. This famous approach was created during the late 1960's, I believe.
@cantstandtheestablishment4004 Stabilized approach criteria were met with descent path and aircraft configuration, but it doesn't prevent required turns for runway alignment. Another great example of a unique approach where you see something similar to this is at DCA - Reagan National on the River Visual 19. Aircraft have to follow the Potomac River to avoid prohibited airspace and make the last turn to align with the runway well below 500'. Lots of great videos here on UA-cam from spotters at Gravelly Point Park showing this, and a few showing the view from the cockpit.
@jorgeB767-3ER I was in a FedEx 727 back in the early 90's on my first visit to JFK and we flew this approach. I wasn't a pilot yet (pre 9/11 when employees could jumpseat) but remember seeing those lead-in lights for the first time and thinking how unique the approach was. Glad I had that perspective and have been able to fly it myself many years later.
Wow I couldn't even work out where the airport was, those flashing lights are very neat but still had me searching until the last turn directly to the runway
I can see those flushing lights often when driving at night on South Conduit. They are between S. Conduit and Belt Pkwy. But from above they look amazingly beautiful .
I first learned of the pre-runway timed flashing lights "beckoning in" to the runway in my first jet flight 707 manual they put in the seat pocket, way back as a kid in 1962, a flight from LAX to O'Hare Chicago. But it was drawn as a straight on approach. It looks like here they have these approach lights turned on way earlier and curving around 90 degrees, so these advance lights guide the plane to the runway from whatever angle a plane may approach from, not just a straight on approach.
Scariest landing this regular passenger ever experienced was PDX on a very windy evening. Jumper flight from Seattle in one of those turbo prop commuter planes Alaska uses. Choppy flight is one thing but we dropped, I don’t know how many feet in a second and came screaming hot fast for a landing. Scared the shit out of everyone but the flight attendant. He had quite the sense of humor and as we pulled in he announced “In case you didn’t notice….welcome to Portland” It was rather amusing at the time and cut the tension. Pilots deserve every cent you earn in my book💯

That was pretty sweet! What an amazing thing it would be for the Wright Brothers to get that same viewpoint and see how far aviation has come.

What about Joules Vern?
Was a Constellation a 4 prop. plane?

Glad you enjoyed it!
Auto pilot! Amazing IFR. It's a 300 million dollar plane! Show us your skills in manual turbo props!
Or an SEP without ifr.
That's the kind of reality TV that I like. 😀
This was the last approach I flew into JFK in the 747 before I retired recently. So much fun and there’s nothing I wouldn’t give to still be doing it. Well done!
All the white city led lighting is so sparkly! Man times have changed

Thanks 👍
Been there done that
Prefered approach of the JFK controlllers
Pilots are amazing people
I love pilots who can land a plane nicely!!! Thank you. ❤❤
We need more video like this, love it !
I don't jumpseat too often but look forward to capturing more cockpit footage like this in the future
Id never get tired of that view

Very soft and comfortable landing for the passengers. Looked like very good weather. Nicely done.

How can ya not love the "Ka Nas See" Approach? It never gets old.

Something mesmerising watching the cockpit all lit up at night.
That was awesome ! Thanks for filming that.

Sounds like a memorable experience flying in a classic propliner like the Constellation.
I had the same experience, flying home from Kansas City, August '61. What are the odds!
nice video, interesting landing pattern
Nice view of Jamsica Bay
Absolutely amazing video! It gave me the chills!
Well that was pretty cool.
I can't imagine getting to see and do that for a living. Amazing.
My son & Grandson fly to New York tomorrow They will luv it....And the flight....
its something how a big machine just fly's through the air like that, technology is amazing,
That is SO KEWL!!!!!!! Thanks for the video….
Very nice job. Done it many times myself.
I really liked this video. Love cock pit views of landings
Beautiful job!
Very nice! Great job guys!
Keep up the great work you do
Thanks, will do!
Awesome footage..always amazes me seeing heavies do this approach. Really get a good sense aeeinf it from the cockpit
I agree!
Definitely a complicated approach!
I used to fly this aircraft! I love his large cockpit, thoughtfull ergonomic. It's widebody heavy aircraft but is controlled easy and free
Very cool - thanks for the upload.
Brings back memories when I flew a CRJ in the area.
Both day and night time visual approaches were good fun, especially into LGA from the west.

Big city lights at night are stunning. Always looked at them as paintings on black velvet. But NYC is pretty nice. DFW and FTW is another
amazing sight at night. But nothing in this world can compare to Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Beautiful city scape at night . I think this was the Canarsie approach .
Great stuff . Thank you . Pull up big apple , pull up big apple !
Wonderful aircraft, wonderful approach❤😍🔥
Love it! Landing RW 13L, over Carnarsie, over the Belt! Then passing over the OLD RAMADA INN where I drank and stayed during the 70's-90's
So cool made that look easy!!
Minus the bad landing
It is easy

Fantastic landing what a big bird to fly👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻glad u guys safe🎊
Bravo. These guys are flying space ships. -)
That was excellent landing very smooth
This at first glance looks like a game its amazing footage
And if you throw in a little fog at 500 feet, when turning, hair will grow where there is none. Enjoyed the short ride!
interesting approach to watch. please post more
Wow I couldn't even work out where the airport was, those flashing lights are very neat but still had me searching until the last turn directly to the runway
That was really cool. We don't appreciate air travel enough.
Beautiful views out the window. As with anything, when you see it often enough it loses its magic and becomes boring.
JEEZ,
YOU PILOTS
ROCK! 👍
Wow! Amazing flying skills!
Certainly an interesting approach.
what a beautiful job thank you all

Uh, that’s the Canarsie approach. One of the hardest things you can do. Good job done there! And thanks for the video!😊
I'll never forget first time night flying with instructor and how quickly the runway disappears into the city lights....
Magnificent stuff. Looking to become an airline pilot sometime down the line. Stuff like this is why I love flight ❤
Go for it! Always follow your dream
1:20 gotta fall in love with the sound of landing gear doors opening.
Much better than no sound and that is when I worry
Smooth operators these pilots!!
Great landing
Loved Canarsie back in the early 1990’s. A great neighborhood
Great landing!
Nice job guys!!
Glad you enjoyed it
That was so cool. Thanx
Very very Clear videos it got be in 4k beautiful
Love flying the nighttime Canarsie approach to 13L 💙✈
Belas imagens de um pouso noturno. Parabens.
