ANC_742F Rwy6R ILS Landing Snow anchorage

[Mommysaurus2112]

Same runway I arrived on via Alaska 727 in July, '83: off on a tarmac to the right was a 4-engined fish-hauler which shed a prop in-flight (which gashed the fuselage) and made a nosegear-up emergency landing a month or two before, which I watched land on TV. Spent the next few days flying around Alaska and helping patch up a 206 to fly back to Seattle. What a summer!

"EXCELENTE " .

[Sandeeno007]

25 kts landing ? :-)

[motokid032]

Isn't it 7L and 7R..Do you guys tune the BRUCK NDB in real life?

[hyrrokinfamily]

Zoom out !!!

[dmimcg]

Way too high on approach. Learn to fly you dipshits. Do you even know how to read a VASI? doubt it.

[Nintenkid91]

@dmimcg First of all you don't know what you are talking about, second of all that is not a VASI it is a PAPI and there is a huge difference, and third of all you don't land 2 red 2 white in a 747 unless there is a second PAPI further back because you see the colors relative to your position looking out from the cockpit. Since a 747 cockpit sits higher than a 737 for example, the PAPI would make you fly a lower glide path to maintain 2 white and 2 red which would cause the 747 to be lower...

Awesome Video! Envious, just a little! Thanks for sharing! Love Alaska!

[jdwu]

@ibanez0711 Thanks for love it !

[mdo686]

Man those GoodYear blimp pilots are awesome!!!!

[jdwu]

@mdo686 It was.

[hyrrokinfamily]

Nice vid ... We can hear the automatic pilot being cut off near the landing is that right ?

[Nintenkid91]

@hyrrokinfamily Yes.

[wfo76]

should have left the camera in normal zoom,

zoomed in way too much

[futureav8r]

quite a steep descent also a bit high :L

reminds me of london city which had a glideslope of 7.5 degrees it now has one of 5.0 degrees

merry xmas everyone! :D

[carterthomas999]

He landed it still knobhead

[anttrap321]

it LOOKS like its flying very slow while landing, but its actually flying pretty fast

[benjaminrazzaq1]

i wanns be a pilot in real life rite im on flight sim

[Am99a]

good wish you all the best ,well same here playing flight simulator x

[toootooot]

to : JDWU

i really wish to be like you in future.. flying the commercials..

[jdwu]

Go! you will.

[AUBLUEOAR]

what type of equipment is this

[jdwu]

Boeing 747-209B

[sealalula]

There wont be so much snow in Alaska , cause of global warming , thats what hes trying to say

[fredbox]

its 10900 feet, hardly short. Perspective's just a bit thrown off. Most jets just need a little dab of thrust reverser to slow to make the turnoff without using brakes.

[puttyno1]

that is a really short runway!!

[victorjara767]

global warmins is bullshit

[darthirakli]

I miss snowy winters so much! Really want to go to the place like that!

[Lufthansa115]

where do you live, that there is no snow ???in future won't be snow in germany too, but at present it is oftens...

[darthirakli]

There used to be a lot of snow in the place where I live when I was a small child. But nowadays snow is much more rare (most likely due to climate change).

Also, snow in the northern regions of the planet is different: it covers everything and stays during the whole winter, which creates a completely different feeling.

[Airportchris2]

What do you mean in the future there won't be any?

[Lufthansa115]

no snow...at present it's cold, but in future it will be cold...because the clima catastrophic...sorry, my english is not so good...

[Airportchris2]

What do you mean climate catastrophy?

[Lufthansa115]

it will be hot in future....not cold like present....then there's no snow...it looks like the sommer

[Airportchris2]

so you mean the summer season is coming?

Or are talking about "global warming" b/c I think thats just a bunch of crap.

[Lufthansa115]

i think about the second one...and that's not a bunch of crap, that's real...

[Airportchris2]

My opinion on global warming and saving the environment is the same as George Carlins was.

[BugattiVeyron123]

He means Global Warming

[Airportchris2]

I know.

[garlex134]

I think hes trying to say, there wouldn't be anymore snow in alaska in the future because of global warming? I dont know.

[drksi99]

global warming dude

[Kaminsky15]

TomBirkland, I miss Anchorage too! I used to set up the lawn chairs at the hikers trail next to the cliff at the end of those two runways and watch the heavies land during the warm summer months. This is a wonderful video, thank you for posting! I only wish I could have been in the right seat myself to witness first hand.

[jdwu]

Welcome and Enjoy! I missing it too.

[ershad85]

auto pilot disengage sound was funny..

[aguler1]

It looks so slow that even a car can be faster than you. What makes it look so slow? It is not flying, but walking in the sky :)

[FSfreek]

It`S cause of the zoom in!

[tatercito]

its an optical effect.. you´ll see always bigger things moving like a little boy U.u !

and is not the zoom

[hyrrokinfamily]

@aguler1 The only reason for this slowness is the zoom, the camera was zooming so much : it spoils landing ...

[bextorjazz]

@aguler1 You see, it has to do with the altitude... there is nothing close to the aircraft in the air that represents a "reference point" for your eyes also there is no movement produced by friction... just have a look, the airplane is at least 8 miles away from the runway... it only takes a few minutes to reach the runway, now think: does a car can run the same distance in that time?...

[Mommysaurus2112]

@bextorjazz Correct. At an average 150-mph final approach speed, 8 miles is gobbled up in 3 minutes, 12 seconds.

[bextorjazz]

@aguler1 another example, the runway is almost 2 miles long... you can see the airplane only takes a few seconds to cross it... do you think a car would cross it in the same time?

[duk309]

Northwest Cargo yeah!

[TennisChamp59]

Why did it look like you guys were going so slowly?

[kshin882002]

zoomed in

[TennisChamp59]

Oh yeah. I never thought of that. Thank you.

[mor2009]

NICEEE

[tombirkland]

Beautiful blue light off the snow. Makes me miss ANC a lot.

[BarbaraandHarold]

Thanks but I prefer West Palm Beach. They get just the right amount of snow each year.

[belongsinskynotclass]

wow perfect!!!

[jdwu]

Thanks for like the Video!

Enjoy.

[stuartpoodlestuartgr]

Perfect landing, nice job. Im from anchorage.

[jdwu]

[naopilot]

[jdwu]

Thanks!

[edyken77]

Cool! great shot of the snow and lights in anchorage.

[jdwu]

Thanks!edyken77
