Head to Head at FL 380

[codzomz]

guys, hes in the cockpit, hes a pilot, he obviously knows the sequencing and separation but he put that title to grab more views RELAX

[TinnInches]

A pretty easy video to masturbate to, thanks for the upload.

[spiff1003]

Didn't know there were "airways" over the pacific and atlantic too. This would've been too much of an accident to be on an exactly opposite course if they were not using airways.

[Tampa0123456789]

@spiff1003 I was thinking the same thing. I was like what are the odds?LOL but Yeah i thought over the ocean it was a free for all.

[JoaoBatist4]

777-200LR

[jeanorwin]

Very very very very very nice shot! Honestly, great shot!

[typr1ab]

Is this coming from or going to Hawaii? Love Hawaiian Air.

[gigaboat]

that prick was on the wrong side of the road . flash ya high beams next time !

[HotSIzZle12]

the sky's so big, how come this happens so often?

[serric007]

Great office view!... .802 mach!!!, the earth looks so steady..!! and the 767 heading towards you make a difference in the long trip. Great video.

[eaglez4evr]

Passenger: "OH MY GOD OH MY FUCKIGN GOD WERE GUNNA DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!!!!! MOM before we die I want to tell you something.....I was the one who put the condom in the pasta!!!!! *plane goes by* Oh THANK GOD WERE ALIVE WERE ALIVE MOM DID YOU HEAR THAT were- *turns and looks at mom* *mom gives the evil stare* uh-oh

[pingpongpung]

@eaglez4evr Only the passengers can't see the plane coming.

[aceflyer89]

Odd 1000 + 500 and Even 1000 + 500 ... THANK GOD for that!

[mineraals]

man thats fast!

[1982FMJ]

quite a strong quatering headwind on this portion of the video displayed a low groundspeed. 427 knots is not that fast a groundspeed. THey sometimes reach upto 650 or 700 knots groundspeed. Groundspeed determines you're actualy flight times

[TheDrunkenAviator]

Seeing this, I wish planes had horns...

[RAFpilot999]

it used to be 2000 feet seperation but they changed it to 1000 feet in RVSM! Right?

[OmsoiTekken]

See how quickly the fuel from the other plane disingerates.

[Adzzgray777]

Are you on a B767-300?

Hawaian airlines?

[DG121480]

FL 380, Heading 224*, Airspeed .802 mach (254 kts). N593HA, you're lookin' good.

[aexmndz]

Man, thats hawt!! lol

[supermanmach1]

OMG WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!! LET'S ALL FREEK OUT AHHHhhhhhh!!!!

[jesuistahmid]

seems like a 777 going the opposite direction

[cts2906]

Cool!

[tezskanza]

RVSM. Nice.

[caralhoporra36]

uma coincidencia enorme!

[zi6film]

thanks naubotonauboto at least someone understands the meaning of what i said !!

[SouthAfricanAirways1]

It's not head to head. Thats perpendicular...

[kaaskopje1988]

It's taken from the flightdeck looking straight ahead.....

[13rdp]

Funny to set the DA 200ft while in cruise

How do you know what approach you will perform & what will be the minimas?

[H3CProductions]

Dome times its set by the company. So they will set DA of 200ft some time during the crz.

[13rdp]

What do you mean? What is the purpose of this?

I don't see no advantages and I think it can be a source of mistake if you always have this 200 under the eyes, it won't surprise you if you have it instead of a 400 non- precision approach minimas.

I ll always put it during my approach briefing not before, but if there is an advantage to put in durinbf cruise, I'll like to know.

[jsoqeta]

254knots, dayum dats some speed...!!

[biggestMetallicAfan]

Dude it's faster than that.

The usual cruise knots is around 300 to 310kts.

So when you do the math, 300kts is about 345mph.

310kts would be about 356mph.

[zi6film]

cool thats nearly 2000 km per hour pass

[bitterbuick]

2000km per hour? That is over twice the maximum speed of a B767... check your math, brother.

[tengoindiamike]

He probably meant the closure rate between the two aircraft was around 2000km/hr.

[naubotonauboto]

Yes.... he talked about relative velocity, let say each plane cruise at 900 km/h, so the relative velocity should be 900+900= 1800 km/h. It they fly at the same direction, relative velocity will be 0 km/h

[wfo76]

You can clearly see the reg number on the panel

N593HA

B767-300ER

Hawaiian Airlines

[lefonceur26]

Whao it's just 1,000 feet below.

[justinaurelius]

Isn't that perpendicular?

[ICCASH]

Hawaiin Airlines 767

[JackClare1995]

there's 1000 feet of difference there, it's not head to head

[KPNLFC]

Did they feel the turbulence after this passing ?

[323tiim]

@JackClare1995 actually it is

[JackClare1995]

@323tiim Well no because technically "head to head" refers to like, if two aircraft were starting off in a race and they were lined up next to each other on a runway, they would be going head to head

[323tiim]

@JackClare1995 you can say both things..

[Tetsuonpl83]

its call oposite traffic

[MsLidia9]

dzięki..

[DominoFaz]

This happened alot on one flight I was on, I could see one aircraft was a 737-800 in THY colours from my window. Thats how close it was.

And a easyjet A319 flew right below us.

Slightly terryfying!

[supertuber97]

At above FL245 cruise levels are the following: Magnetic track 000 - 179 FL250, 270, 290, 330, 370 & magnetic track 180 - 359 FL260, 280, 310, 390

[jonathankochhougaard]

Incorrect, it is not like that in RVSM airspace :-)

[johnsmithfsx]

Awesome! I can tell that's a classic Boeing 737 by the cockpit, but am not so sure as to the exact model. Anyone know?

[d0rkiishchris]

737 cockpits are grey not brown.  And seeing that theres no altitude tape, thats either an older 767 or 757. I'm guessing older 767.

[italy430]

no offense... but u seriously need to get your eyes checked. that is brown.

[rigaudien]

You can even HEAR the plane passing by...

[gescoboza]

wwoow, you dont see videos like these everyday

[jonathankochhougaard]

Hawaiian Airlines Boeing 767-33AER, right?

[mjakes20]

seems so cool!

[awej]

What an amazing view, this is what pilots see every single day, wow

[Pitastesgood]

Should they be so close? Wouldn't that cause a TCAS alert?

[Asstard006]

Planes are allowed to be only up to 1000 feet of each other. In this vid, it may not look like it but they were more thn 1000 feet away

[602780573]

No, only when vertical separation is 600ft or less, this one flew one level below which is 1000ft (300 metres)

[bacnka]

It looks so small and insignificant, kinda fragile in a weird way. Scary.

[Pilotatc999]

That was around 500 - 1000 ft apart. 500 feet is the minimum closing altitude between two aircraft. If it was head-to-head. TCAS would've bumped in disabled the autopilot and the pilot should've pulled up or down dependant on the instructions.

[switchkid54321]

so wierd concorde flew at 2.00 mach nd normals planes go like 0.95 or sumin!:L

[Flyingfast79]

He was going only mach .800, when I flew with Delta 767 from JFK to ATH , we were hauling ass over the Atlantic at Mach .850, instead taking 8 hours, it took us only 7 hours. We flew over England and in 1.5 hours later we were passing Italy.

[stewardlie]

what about concorde? mach 3?

[virginianboy1012]

Mach 2.00

[Umidoria]

cool

[Eerivelto85]

muito interessante

[fatmoleman]

Sweet closing speed.

[shipsim2k8]

close

[osorious]

nice!

[stockhus]

what kinda aircraft is this? (where its recorded from)

[EI747SYDNEY]

It's a Hawaian Airlines B767

You can spot the Reg above the air speed indicator at 0:57

[stockhus]

Oh, ok =) I didn't spot the reg number inside the cockpit

[KicsiVizi]

It is a Bombardier Learjet DJ series. I know its tipe from the microsoft flight simulator 2004. It's my favorite. The n593ha it's just a identification code, Like cars have. Sorry for english

[amilldevil107]

no its not the one being recorded from is B767 Google the Reg no. on google youll get an hawaiain airlines B767

[miamiaa83]

terifying film... isn't the distance between them too small???

[crEativE85zEn]

nice video...

[b101aa2]

fl370 westbound and fl380 eastbound? looks like it.

[rdtaint]

its the other way around.

[pingpongpung]

@b101aa2 Heading 225 looks like eastbound??

[dedeyun]

@b101aa2 East - Odd FL & West - Even FL

[b101aa2]

@dedeyun ya i know. but you just seriously went back two years of comments to point out a joke? seriously? that is pretty bad on the troll-o-meter.

[OK2BCK]

tcas warning?

[fpx2gwak]

if there is enough space between two aircraft, TCAS does not warn you .

[OK2BCK]

oh you mean vertically? it would make sense then

[fpx2gwak]

vertically and horizontally

[rdtaint]

The TCAS gets data from the FMC's that know when we are in RVSM airspace. So we dont get the TA's.

[1053857]

Isnt RVSM airspace everywhere? If not, what are the rules on seperation?

[esh1]

@rdtaint thank you. cool video :)

[jef1500]

Nice mate:)

[880278010]

thats quite normal, I usually play chicken in the sky from time to time. my co-pilot thinks it's cool.

[BIHVR6GTI]

well if you really are a pilot i would hate to fly with you man.

[1053857]

Why?

[BIHVR6GTI]

WHY WHY because he says he plasy chicken in the AIR

[lostworldband]

chinken in the sky ? but you always change from crew so u dont always have the same co-pilot

[ernes75]

Nice Video. Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this a B767 of Hawaiian Air? By the way, on which area was this picture taken?
