Boeing 737-900 Landing in San Diego

[Iluvfsx]

U were really high

[MultiNGmusic]

nice landing!, was it ILS?

[mylife1221]

For anyone who says that he landed high, he didn't. He didn't because the actual approach is a non-precision approach, which means you can't judge the angle of your descent. Also, there is a car park which is about 200 ft from the runway, and the aircraft fly about 20 ft over it. The terrain is the same - along with the surrounding community. This means that approximately 1810 ft of the runway is unavailable to land on. I learnt this off "Most Extreme Airports" (NO. 10) on the History Channel.

You Did Not Land Late It Was Perfect

[hawkeyeted]

He wasn't high, he wasn't fast.

San Diego has a 3.5* approach angle (as opposed to a "standard" approach angle of 3.0*) due to the Laural Travel building at the appraoch end of 27.

u didnt land late is just u were going too fast you landed great:)

[BoeingPrototype]

What a bunch of trolls. I'm doing my last year in my course of aviation. "He flared too much'' or'' you came in a bit high". Well I got news for you being a pilot means youre not only piloting the plane but its up to you whether or not everyone on board is gonna live. You have to make your own decisions and by doing so, this guy determined that the runway is long enough so he could have a delayed touch down. He also came in high and made up for it by setting full flaps+trim+speed. its a sim!!

[WeTheGingers]

you flared to much



[hello45789]

i think your a bit too high for approach?

[MrGeneralKenobi]

200 knots approach speed? That must have been a HEAVY plane

[jj7184]

plz tell me the link of touch down smoke effect :)

[SIMMER514]

@jj7184 The effect is builtin the game

[jj7184]

@SIMMER514 no i have fsx but no this touch down smoke

[SIMMER514]

@jj7184 OOPS! SORRY MY BAD! I didn't notice the difference :P

[sso97]

you culd make turns to descend

[mylife1221]

I love the planes that you've got, Steve. Keep on going! :D

[98hepa]

who cares if you landed late that was an incredible landing good job cessna

[kaff345]

That was a nice landning but how did you get that smoke?

[dannyzrust]

very good landing!

[TheChokeslam123]

amazing landing, btw, how do u video record wot is happening on ur actual screen, ???

[CPVinish]

You didn't land too late, the first part of the runway isn't allowed for landing, you landed right after the arrow on the runway indicating for the start of a landing. Good job man! I use Flight SImulator X all the time (have used all the way back to Microsoft Flight Sim 2002), it was a good landing!

[6XSuperBwl]

@CPVinish I think cessna thought he landed late because he missed the touchdown marks on the sides of the runway, not the chevrons at the beginning. But good landing nonetheless.

[trymsb]

White over White - too much height

[poppypudhaphong]

You're a PROFESSSIONAL!

[samb1100]

Great landing, but how do you activate the red text with the altitude, speed... in the top of the screen please ?

[11panos04]

Τoo high,mush of the runway wasted.

[kopilot227]

Good landing,but too late!

[aolambros]

Lol. Here he goes again landing at 200 knots. Fuckin' noob.

[Fr33St00fProductions]

@aolambros A very obnoxious comment. At least he admits it, your two videos showing landings basically say "REALLY SMOOTH LANDING!!". So in other words you're bigoted.

[2004FS]

to much speed

[Dorian181]

ya damn rigght ya landing late as a result of coming in too fast....but a good landing

[Hewson60]

The website is offline.

[alongo34]

appraoch was a little high but still good

[TOAST4005]

It is better than i could do lol

[thedovermoviecompany]

How do you download that aircraft cuz everytime I try that website it comes out wrong.

[LCYA318]

nice touch down and flare but i have to say the approach was poor! if you tune the ILS then it will give you a smooth approach path to take and will put you down on the touch down zone which will stop a late landing. Hope it helps :]

[auckland14nz]

there is actually no ILS for this runway at San Diego, just a Localizer. thus a pilot must relay more on the recomended altitudes in the approach plate and make a planned approach descent based on those and the approach at San Diego RWY 27 is a bit steeper than normal on short final due to the higher buildings on the approach path ;)

[escaperoute2]

wow look at that frame rate! ;)

[ethman64]

for that approach, it was not a late landing. i watch planes fly the loc/dme approach to that runway all the time, and its not often that plane will land either before, or on the marked td zone. so overall good job. :)

[nadimnahas1995]

Great landing but a nose dive approch!

[maxthelover]

yeah right approch was to high.

so im little confused, why you get that perfekt tuch down :DD ill give you 5 stars

[P8NTBALL60]

better landing than i cud do...but the approach wuz a lil too high.

[Wooo0oooW]

yes, a little late, but still a better landing than me!!

[Ahmedhsan]

hey do u know how to download plane 4 fsx..if u know plz plz tell me.... :-)

[cjracer1000]

u didnt land late its just that the papi lights set ur approach 2 high for ur speed u were going 2 fast for the papis so u falred and came 2 late

i dont use the papi cause im allways a bit 2 fast

great landing tho not ur fault the lights set ur app 2 high

[Cessna154]

Thanks for the comments!  : )

[AA777200ER]

I didn't think you landed late. Great video and landing.

[Cessna154]

Thank you!  : )

[aircanadapilotz]

where did u get smake effect pm me the link plz? nice vid 5/5

[airlinepilotdude]

where u get 737-900 ?

[Cessna154]

It is available for download on my site. Link to my site is in the video description box. Just visit the site and click on the download section then FS2004... : )

[airlinepilotdude]

oh i meant for FSX

[Cessna154]

I haven't found one for FSX yet... But many FS2004 aircraft can be used in FSX with no trouble... : )

[airlinepilotdude]

oh ok

[cjracer1000]

i found one it is on projectopensky com

[Mortysvideos]

My favourate airport, Cessna154 :)

[Cessna154]

It is a pretty interesting airport. The approach is very fun to fly...  : )

[MoonmanJR]

are u a real pilot?

or a really good simulatorX player

[Cessna154]

Nope, not a real pilot...

[Feircejaguar]

you know, im starting to miss your FSX vids...

[Cessna154]

I'm working on bringing them back ASAP...

[Feircejaguar]

thanx...

[afer95]

nice landing

i hate whenn you land like that that watch my videos(of landings dont look another) and you will know why.

and what is your average speed landing??mine is about 130-220 knots in a jet aircraft

[procpuarie]

220 for a landing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[afer95]

wow i remeber when i landed at 290kts with an crj-700 in fsx in a runway of 6500ft and i finished in a very horrible crash

[Cessna154]

Average speed while landing while vary due to aircraft, weight, and weather conditions. In this video I aimed for 145-150 knots because I was a little heavy for landing... : )

[afer95]

my record was at 90 knots whits an md83 in fsx landing in aruba and i dont take much runway

[Cessna154]

In real life that would not be possible...

[yoto5951]

hmmm. i went to this airport in fs2004 and the screny is diffrent in yours , and i have allthing ultra high. YOU GOT BEST FPS is this 30 fps?

[Cessna154]

You or I might have a different scenery add-on for this airport... This FPS in all my FS2004 videos is 30 FPS from now on since 30FPS is the limit that YouTube will broadcast... : )

[Mig4512]

how did you get so much so much scenery in fs2004??.. :/

[Cessna154]

Just turn up all the sliders to MAX... : )

[Kupferstecher2007]

nice landing :)

[Cessna154]

Thanks!!!  I'm glad you enjoyed it!!! : )

[snorkdude]

Nice! The PAPI showed you too high, so it must have been a visual approach. However, it was a beautiful landing!

[Cessna154]

Yep, it was visual... The approach kind of fools the pilot because the building are so close to the airport and the airport is located in a valley compared to buildings around it... Anyway, thanks for watching and commenting!!! : )

[MadSkillz2343]

o dude nice

[Cessna154]

Thanks!!!  : )

[aleupalex]

Nice landing i'll download this plane later, Great job man!

[Cessna154]

Thanks, I hope you enjoy the download!!! : )

[flightsim93]

Nice Landing....Very Good Video.

[Cessna154]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed this video!!! : )

[Cessna154]

Thanks!!!

[AIRDOLPHIN93]

One of your funnier videos actually - I laughed a little bit when the text at 1:17 came up with "Yes. I know I landed late." Was this visually or ILS because on all the FSs the ILS can only take you so far - and it looked like a visual approach - nice video. Better luck next time I guess!! :D

[Cessna154]

It was Visual all way... I knew I had to put a little comment on the video about the late touchdown otherwise some little kid will try to act all smart and point out I landed late... Thanks for watching and commenting!!! : )

[mandeepcomputerwhiz]

Type &fmt=6 or &fmt=6 (&fmt=6 works best) at the end of thsi video URL (web address) to view this in HD quality! :-)

[Feircejaguar]

WOW, how did u know that?!

[Cessna154]

I believe there was a YouTube blog entry that said something about it...

[mandeepcomputerwhiz]

Thanks!

[thefsxflyer]

Oh, shit nice dude. Looks amazing! I don't know if it works on others but I am going to try it

[Cessna154]

I still can't get it to work on this video, but there are a few others that are playing in HD including my UFO video... : )

[thefsxflyer]

I can. It looks like it is uncompressed.

[mandeepcomputerwhiz]

:-)

[mandeepcomputerwhiz]

Thanks!

[aleupalex]

Hey man thanks! I'm going to download videos in this quality now!

[Cessna154]

Excellent!!! I only ask that if anyone downloads my videos off of YouTube to not re-upload it under their channel... Thanks for watching and commenting!!! : )

[mandeepcomputerwhiz]

Thanks for replying!

[Cessna154]

I can't seem to get it to view in HD... a few of my other videos are being played in HD now as well... Thanks for telling others about this awesome aspect of YouTube!!!

[mandeepcomputerwhiz]

If &fmt=6 doesn't work, try &fmt=6 :-)

[Cessna154]

Ok, thanks... : )

[mandeepcomputerwhiz]

Hey listen up please! Type &fmt=6 at the end of this URL (web address) of this video, and then this will be in HD! I am oustounded!

[Cessna154]

YES! I got it to work finally... You have to manually type it in and not copy/paste those characters... Thanks for telling everyone!!!  : )

[Movieman1113]

hey awsome video, also how many FPS do  u get?

[Cessna154]

While recording in FS2004 I get 30... And while not recording in FS2004 I lock at 53...  : )

[ahmedkhalil747]

Nice, we know you landed late,, but isn't a problem, the video is still nice

[Cessna154]

Thanks for watching and commenting!!! I'm glad you liked the video!!! : )

[goingdowntheils]

That was a good landing and you didn't really land late at all. Rather do that than damage the landing gear!

[Cessna154]

Thanks!!!  Yeah, I wanted to keep that smooth approach going so I had to land a little late... Thanks for watching and commenting!!! : )

[Takaja316]

Give me prizes cessna cuz i'm first comment

[Cessna154]

No, that would be pretty lame... If you win the giveaways then you can win... : )

[airbus91]

yup

[CheenoToCool]

wat do u use to land

[Cessna154]

I landed using the visual approach method...
