A380 Cockpit Tour

[Defconfx]

Ill third the thumbs up on the statement "the auto pilot is a stupid computer" :) really good run down on the functionality of everything. Im interested in becoming a pilot myself at some point so I am especially fascinated by the technical features of modern aircraft. I must say I like the fold away keyboard and the fact that charts and airport layouts are all available digitally at ones fingertips. Its a well thought out flight deck indeed :)

thanks for a great video. Liked "autopilot is a stupid computer".

What is the V1 of an A380?

[LufthansaA343]

@joshpugfan Well, the V1 speed always depends on the length of the Runway. At an average runway the V1 will be about 150 -155 kts. Vr will usually be around 165.

Is NRT a tough airport for landing? I heard that there's something like wind shear sometimes. But I guess it's not too much trouble for A 380 but somemore dangerous for smaller jet? Is that true?

[LufthansaA343]

@skyxie1217 NRT is not more or less difficult than other airports Like KLAX or San francisco. Though it does have some difficult crosswind some times. Smaller planes are more effected than bigger ones like the A380 but the A380 is also effected by a crosswind. A lot of rudder is needed during a landing with shear winds.

[skyxie1217]

awesome! like aviation so much though having not chance to fly such a huge commercial jet
