Eva air Amsterdam heavy hard Landing Boeing 747-400 Combi (74E)

[Pvjinflight]

@TheJonesyboii Yes ofc as Boeing had almost monopoly for tens of years with only few competitors.

[Pvjinflight]

@TheJonesyboii Yes, but during last years Airbus has got most orders which means that TODAY airbus is leading.

[Pvjinflight]

@TheJonesyboii They arent as Airbus is selling better every year.

[Pvjinflight]

@TheJonesyboii No they are not. Airbus sells better and is ahead.

[Pvjinflight]

@TheJonesyboii Airlines do not care about look, and every Boeing is technologically behind Airbus as pilot can crash any Boeing plane by simple error.

[poodinn]

oh I heard Thai. :)

[Pvjinflight]

@TheJonesyboii Just few days ago Boeing 737 dived thousands of feet after pilot accidentally adjusted rudder which made plane to roll. In Airbus this kind of scenario is not possible as they are more technologically advanced, computer prevents pilot from stalling and overbanking the plane.

[Pvjinflight]

@TheJonesyboii Idiot, airlines do not give a shit about what plane looks, but how economical it is. 747-8i is not more economical and cant carry as much passengers than A380, and also pretty much every plane can use bio fuel. Airlines are buying Airbus more than Boeing, this year Airbus has sold more planes than Boeing and did so in last year too, so the fact is that Airbus is being more successful. Also technologically Boeings are far away from Airbus, simple pilot error can crash Boeing.

That wasn't a hard landing...

[MattyThNl]

Normally I'll fly 2 times each year to visit my family and from my experience EVA Air is good and most of the time were always smooth landing. Never had a heavy landing much. Also service and the cabincrews are nice.

[dutchbhproduction]

kidding me right ? if that was a hard landing, then my at 1st flight's landing, the aircraft was going through the ground.......

[Q747400]

that didn't look hard

[jonahair747meteors6]

That seemed pretty normal landing, but good video thumbs up!

[grychnack]

A soft landing doesn't mean a good landing ! In rainy conditions it's better to make a "positive touchdown" (Not hard) in stead of a kiss landing !

[patrikplanefan97]

@TheJonesyboii HAHA! Yeah right, what I told you were FACTS, yours were opinions. :) Umm and what do you mean by "everything else"? The Airbus 380 is more efficient, greener to the environment plus it has a much better payload! so um no, the A380 has "everything else".

[gbriff]

was nice landing not hard at all..... nice vid thanks

[Sooksawaspakdee961]

You people should try the A-380 if you think this was hard. Three times i have been flying with Singapore Airlines on their A-380 between Singapore and Sydney and every landing i had is worse than this even with minor turbulence. That huge piece of crap seems impossible to land without bouncing along the runway in cloud of tire smoke. A-380 is just big, nothing else is good about it.

[patrikplanefan97]

@Sooksawaspakdee961 MAYBE YOUVE HAD BAD EXPERIANCES, BUT LET EM TELL YOU SOMETHING, THE A380 BY FAR LANDS SOFTER THAT THE 747, BOTH ARE GREAT! BUT LOOK IT UP AND YOU WILL FIND GREAT A380 LANDINGS.

[DreamworldTV]

People comment saying that landing wasn't hard??? I often fly on 747's and that plane hit the runway like a sack of potatoes lol

[twnlumh]

Experience Counts



[jk695]

Nice video, but certainly not a hard landing by any margin!

[Mrevaair1]

nee het was een kusje

[barthoedemaker]

hard landing? lol

[MatureViewer]

Gotta the love the sophistication of the wings.

[MrForestpotato]

so much condensation

[dibble2005]

That was normal

[gbriff]

wasent hard at all you guys r pussys

[yvesofzo]

You call that a hard landing?

[zebraxman]

landing with 15 degree flaps....first time

[747johnz]

Great Video dude... Landing was normal though...

[stefanholtland]

lots of condensation!!!... but, why is this a hard landing?. it seems pretty smooth to me. anyway. great video!

[mikehsu99]

That's in fact a very nice landing on a day like that. I used to fly an F5E and I can tell you what a hard landing is.

[Syriaacex]

normal landing ^^

[chacha9005]

You should remember that pilots are trying to land the plane. This wasn't the best conditions for that. With that visibility you can barely see in front of your face. Also the 747 is quite a large aircraft. Even though its not a regulation to let the Autopilot ILS function touchdown the plane. That could have been the case here, but I doubt it.

[SaelPalani]

This reminds me of a landing in BOS coming over the harbour when you can't see shit until you're on the ground.

[jetairways773]

@SaelPalani Yeah. Same here. When I went to Dallas, there was fog, so I didn't know where the airport (DFW) was. Then we made a very hard landing, which took me by surprise.

[wizzair1313]

THATS NOT A HARD LANDING

[fernousdu972]

this is not really hard... nice video anyway

[winsun96]

even if this is hard, at least the plane didn't bounce, great work captain

[joepiedekijker]

Hard Landing????....what a load of crap. SHIT movie! Perfect landing.

[MandalorianKnight]

hehe asians flying

[marinafart]

@MandalorianKnight c'était un commentaire très stupide

[fastestbird]

@MandalorianKnight check the Skytrax ranking

[MrHamadeen]

i Really Thank The Captain A Lot for this Landing EXperience in this foggy and bad weather great captain keep it up

[AirlineAviation]

@MrHamadeen It's a normal landing for fog landings.



[Tsuyoshi700]

one of the best video eva! (ever)

[flightsimmer1234]

its always foggy in amsterdam...it well not always but most of the time

[10Kingboy10]

typical dutch weather

[CaNxYoUxStoP]

ils approach all the way to touchdown!!

[AbudAisham]

fake video. pilot are not allow to do hard landing when it are fog in the upper sky

[pingpongpung]

@AbudAisham It's real, and learn to spell idiot.

[stewardlie]

I'm traveling from LAX to CGK with Eva air in no time. I still can't believe that Eva's 747400 combi has only one big screen shared for everybody. That is so old school. But the 747 from LAX to TPE has personal screens right? Anyone? Help? I'm freking out.. Thanks!

[peter226688]

@stewardlie iv flown eva 747 and it does not hace personal TV's, but u dont have to worry cause they only use the 777-300ER's for LAX to TPE =) sorry kinda late but hope it helped.

[eugene1999119]

@stewardlie DONT WORRY, FIRST OFF ALL, THE ALL NEW 777-300ER HAS SCREENS FOR EVERYONE(LAX TO CGX ONLY USES THE NEW 777-300ER) SO DONT WORRY. SECOND OF ALL, EVERY 777-300ER THAT EVAAIR GETS FROM TIME TO TIME, IT TURNS ONE OF THE COMBI INTO CARGO. SO YOULL BE FINE

[ejuoi]

that was not a hard landing that was a LOUD landing. and I'm pretty sure that was an Autoland because the airplane didn't move at all in the transition from fog to visibility like it would if the pilots were hand flying.

[Njoyflying]

@ejuoi: i agree with you!!

[megadriver6]

I had a rough landing in Madeira

there was heavy turbulance and i guess thats why it was a hard landing but it was fun :P

[zurinok]

What a bumby landing!

[musico81986]

CAT III autoland!

[CrazyDoug17]

That would be an ILS landing with all that much fog! :D

[timmyblackboy62]

ughh

thats your typical amsterdam weather!

[coltsuperocean10]

@Borck103 Knobhead!!

[Borck103]

@coltsuperocean10 Oh crap....sorry for that dude. I would seriously go back in time and slap myself for posting that haha. I really do apologise for what I said a year ago :) I will delete it also

[g3or3sistor]

oh geez tht was weird...like at first while its coming down and down theres like just a bunch of white clouds and then suddenly the ground appears!

[rachaelmatt]

great flap movement, and an awesome 747 there are the best jumbo jet ever, there legendary and always will be

[albeezy001]

I accidentally did something like that fliying an EVA AIR B777-300ER on FSX yesterday on a TPE - SFO route.

[albeezy001]

I also notice that EVA AIR pilots leave their spoilers up and their flaps down while doing the post-landing roll taxi.

I do that all the time on Flight Simulator.

[albeezy001]

Amsterdam sucks it's always gloomily rainy and foggy and I'd probably compliment the pilots for landing it hella hard cuz I'm sick of the B747-400M that piece of shit I flew it many times with no legspace in economy class their B777-300ER owns. They can sell those jets or convert them to full freight operation.

[albeezy001]

Oh yeah I had flight Br18 from Taipei to San Francisco and that pilot made a hard landing with the 777 B-16709, but when I had Br7 to Taipei from SFO on a 747 Combi the pilot made a landing soft enough that I couldn't even feel it - everyone applauded it.

[albeezy001]

That landing actually was pretty funny

[albeezy001]

By the way whoever flew this vehicle must be a super nutcase to have an ability to see in thickass fog.

[IsaacBrailsford]

instrument flight rules (IFR) landing

[eugene1999119]

@albeezy001 ITS B6701

[AABkuwait87]

GPWS ??? it should be installed in this plane !!!

Ground proximity warning system

[Airplanespot]

hmm thats a rare, a hard landing of EVA air, i got my whole life fligths with EVA, always touchdowns, without feel the ground

[flightsimman69]

Awesome dude!

Did you drop your glass of Whiskey at the start ?
