LOL yeah thinking that also... isn't that the point?? 🤣 But to be honest the first one on the list seemed to be below the usual glide slope... If they hadn't leveled off for a moment that could have been disastrous... Oooor the pilot thought... Damn... huge crowd! lets make them duck!!! LOL 🤣
@@kevinfairclough4619 Wellington is called the windy city because it's known for being windy nearly all the time. It probably was Wellington but it could've somewhere else LOL.
I’ve never been to that part of the world but have seen some insane videos of the airport. So when NZ and turbulence came up, I knew it was Wellington….
Yep Wellington Airport in New Zealand is one of the hardest Airports to land at. I’m no pilot but have flown to Wellington numerous times mostly on good days but when the weather is especially horrible you know you’re in for a bumpy ride and landing
Lived in Wellington all my life (fifty mumble years) and used to fly in and out every couple of weeks. Got used to the turbulence on approach. That one seemed quite bad.
Wellington Airport is famous for the strong cross winds - just like Madeira Airport (Portugal), Ushuaia (Argentina) among other - almost impossible to make stabilized approaches. Pilots must have good skils to land in those places.
I'm flying to Kos in 2 weeks even watching these videos with go arounds hard landing and turbulence it's still getting me excited to fly again... bring it on .
That Iberia video cost us Iberia to prohibit visual landings for over 8 years in Costa Rica due to bad press. Saying that it was extremely dangerous to pass that low when the land8ng was spot on
I've flown into Wellington seven times in my life. Two of those approaches ended up as go arounds, one flight got diverted to Christchurch and another got diverted to Ohakea. I've only ever had three non eventful landings there.
@@listerofsmeg884 that's a popular myth. In fact it was a North Island sheep farmer who wanted a durable waterproof boot to work in. So he went into Dukes shoemakers on Wellington's High Street, and gave them drawings of what he was looking for. They were originally known as Dukes of Wellington boots, then the idea was culturally appropriated by an English convict and mendaciously attributed to The Duke of Wellington. Think about it - where would he find the time to invent footwear in between fighting Napoleon and being Prime Minister?
I did not expect the history lesson about footwear, but I really do appreciate it. Thank you. “Wellies” are very useful. Dunlop, (the uk tyre manufacturer) made many “wellies”
I think I was watching that Emirates flight in the cross wind live that day on one of those live airport plane spotting channels. The pilot did a great job. They seem to be really well trained at Emirates. I suppose because they have a big fleet and lots of money to hire the best.
It's the long lens (read: high zoom) of the camera. Keep in mind that the main runway at Birmingham is 12,000ft long (3.66km/over 2miles) and based on the markings you're seeing the entire thing in one shot. You'd have to be going supersonic for that hump in the middle to actually feel like a motox track.
The approach to BHX is far more of an issue than the bumpy runway… it’s famous for crosswind landing and lots of go-arounds. The biggest problem about BHX is that you get off the plane in Birmingham 🤭 (It’s just a joke, I’m from there)
I live in the UK, where the air is as thick as soup. I'd be happy to send some to help the planes taking off and landing in Costa Rica in exchange for some coffee...😁
You're lucky you almost landed on Grass. I flew into Frankfurt on Yemenia and almost landed on a forest. I could see the runway to my left out of the window. - True.
RyanAir: "Dear company, we should hire that Lufthansa pilot. Amazing skill." That Iberia almost swoop the grassfield, what if the car getting smashed by the landing gear.
What a good husband says: “I can see the airport from here, no worries.” What he thinks: “All I see is the ocean and rocky cliffs. Holy sh*t, we’re gonna crash!!”
Great video.I think the a340 is too underpowered,the 777 will always be top dog.i know that landing wasnt a340 fault,but if they wanted to go around,it would take a long time for it to get back up again.
In grass or on grass. Its quite the achievement if the pilot manages to land a vehicle with that great of mass in grass. Quite possibly a new branch of physics might emerge from said feat.
Video title: "plane lands too low". LOL, actually, every plane in history have landed at same altitude, which is zero QFE (ground level). Planes even have to crash at ground level. Not a foot higher, not a foot lower... (we can make a case for carrier landing, actually some feet above surface, to be pointy)
@@VictheSecret totally agree. This question is a should have vs could have? That’s the question. But a shear at that altitude (as I’m sure you know) gives no option without wheels touching ground either way. Totally agree, get it on the ground, the aircraft is capable of that. Bumpety bumperty, but safe (just). Under minimums, without prior wind shear warning, pilot flying decides.
@@kevinfairclough4619 Pilot flying follows company SOPs regarding stable approach criteria. Deviating from those is dangerous and must be justified, especially if you prang it. There was no justification that I could see in that video.
I like seeing the smooth landings during strong crosswinds.
Emirates really showing some keen professionalism there.
the last vid shows a correct go-around after the long landing attempt.
Love the approach into Wellington, almost like a rollercoaster…
LMAO, I knew it was going to be Wellington.

Windy Wellington. Been there, done that. 1956 for me, they called it Rongatai back then. DeHavilland Heron.
He went round didn’t he?
They don't call our Rugby Team here in Wellington the " Hurricanes " for nothing .....Boeing 747's are beautiful planes Great videos
And here is me thinking low is a prerequisite of landing.

If that was last week and Wellington, there’s a few videos of difficult landings and go arounds on UA-cam. A QF flight is quite ‘exciting’.
I’ve never been to that part of the world but have seen some insane videos of the airport. So when NZ and turbulence came up, I knew it was Wellington….
1:46 - The perspective makes it look like the slowest take off I have ever seen. Or strong headwind?
I think both perspective and strong winds make it looks slow.
Perspective plus wind PLUS the cultural factor: Hurry is considered to be undignified in the East.

How does a plane “land too low”. It buries itself during the landing? It starts digging?

Landing, rough, late or otherwise, is good for me! Any landing you walk away from is a good landing.
Having to skip a runway approach must probably invoke the saddest feeling ever.
Wellington is extreme! Expect a fairground ride in!
Exactly! It's always so wet and windy, and that's where the name Wellington Boots comes from.
Er , no it isn't.
Wellington boots are named after the Duke of Wellington. Though I'm not sure why @@fluchterschoen

@ 2:17 don't runways need to be perfectly flat without dips and rises like a motox track? Or is it an illulsion?
I’m interested in hearing the answer to this.
No they don’t.
I used to think that too but plenty of runways have an incline. It looks more than it is because of the lens

Crosswind HARD For Airplanes
Could someone explain why pilots don't float over the runway and just deploy all spoliers and reverse thrust to stick the landing?
Because the aeroplane isn’t designed to do that, and doing so will damage it.
Just another day in aviation. Non-pilots make a big deal about nothing.
