How Do You Flare For Landing? Look Like This?

[az7022]

i want to download Flight Simulator X,

[MrZoraguy]

Hey dude whats'up ? I really like ur video can u tell me ur computer's specifications ? Cuz I saw that the game is running very good ! Thanx !

[St3ffen97]

thx at all. know im better than my first landing

thank you very much ;)

[FlyingDutchMan225]

Flaring on approach is just instant flare mode, but indeed, you shouldn't do it to much. And what most big aircraft do; above the runway flaring a little bit, and after touch-down they

pull-up and after a while they slowly drop the nose.

[K0nst4nt1n96]

THE BEST TECHNIC IS ILS APPROACH :D

[Aviation015]

Nice work on your landings. Keep working on getting those touchdowns as close to the thousand foot marker as possible. If you can do that then your a really good pilot.

[90Blakey]

@Aviation015 hes one of the greatest Flight sim pilots out there..this video was made a few years ago. hes been improving ever sense

[2978zappy]

you should make a video on how to land 747s

[icars98]

0:58

I once watched a youtube video on the Singapore to LA with SIA when the landing went like this.

[jwindcd]

what airport it is?

[18kingen]

Cessna How Do U Move The Tail Turn Things?

[ronnoc1k8]

@18kingen It moves when it turns on the ground.

[3902PILOT]

i fly the cessna 152 my flight instructor says you gotta fly the nose on the cessna and the flare is very shallow unlike the cheokee which i also fly

[3902PILOT]

what a beautiful landing!

[syklopxx]

you make it wrong



[sena2119]

Which key is for flaring?

[adbmnj10]

@sena2119

There is no "key" Flaring is the same as taking off, except the angle is MUCH less and your speed is at the appropriate area. It's basically the elevator trim

[mathur63]

Can you do an ILS landing video???

[TheLyricsmaniac90]

i have a problem, when it touches down it causes the plane to stand vertically

[tsnycj]

I use both instruments and it was easy for me to land with any aircrafts.

[joshuaweingardt]

you are much too high!



[Binabik1337]

@joshuaweingardt were you watching this on mute?

[joshuaweingardt]

@Binabik1337 yes :P

[thelebzeb]

jerk do something useful instead, like how to eat rings in sonic,

[RyDon85]

Amazing video my friend! As a real world pilot .. you couldn't have explained the flare aspect of flying any better!! Great work .. Cheers!!

[mariodebontridder]

nice video friend, my problem at landings is nearly always to fast!!! but the good thing at it is that if i can see it imediatly i can just do a touch and go!!! and i try it again!!! ;)

a question: do you know the PERFECT speed for a landing???

[fsghdfh6s5h4b54]

@mariodebontridder Well, the FMC calculates it for you depending on the flaps. On a 737-800 full pax loaded it could be between 130 - 139 kts.

[mariodebontridder]

@fsghdfh6s5h4b54 o, cool!!! i did not know that!!! thank you!!

[gallibep]

@mariodebontridder Its different for each aircraft. usually Vx is a good speed to come over the threshold with

[mariodebontridder]

@gallibep nice, thank you very much for the help!!!

[Nikodem692]

"practise is key" - that's all about

[dereklsept]

you never mentioned timing for throttle pull at all in this video...critical in keeping a flare from becoming a landing attitude demo due to ground effect (assuming you fly in real life at all)

[pilot140467]

Keep to the right speed on aproach and the flare will be so much easier..if you come in at a greater angle you're too slow . if the plane goes up when you flare, you're too fast.. to know when to flare, keep your eyes on the horizon (end of the runway) and you'll have a better perception of altitude.. I know, on the simulator is more difficult because it's not 3D. keeping to the right speed is the key though.. get to know your aircraft and you'll be fine ;-)

[planefreak747]

all u got 2 do is when ur about 30 feet in the air u pull back on the stick and there u go

[YagoRj357]

What about using spoilers if i'm coming too fast towards the runway?

[cappi10]

@YagoRj357 no, if you need to use your spoilers just before touchdown it can be dangerous, the plane could drop fast and crash in the ground. If you are going to fast for touch down dont use your spoilers just before landing instead go around and try again and try to maintain a constant speed.

[AndrewEchevarriaVEVO]

what do you use to control the planes

[aferguson182]

does trim on landing help the aircraft maintain approach speed and not flare on approach

[cappi10]

@aferguson182 for a smooth landing it is always better to flare, while descending to the runway you can however use your pitch to get you to the right speed.

[pilot140467]

@cappi10

Don't forget that conventional wings only fly well under a max angle of about 15 degrees.. you increase the angle of attack too much and they will stall as he said on the video..

[jwo99odvideo]

thank you this  helped!

[gamerbwoi]

I have to flare early.. i cant land unless i stall the U-2 just above the runway.

[iMentox]

Can someone tell me how to flare the airplane?? What do i press to lift the nose up?

[will122391]

@iMentox The same key used to raise the nose in air. There's no special button.

[TheJocat123]

My beech baron 58 slides off the runway on takeoff and i am not touching the controls. What do I do. :/

[RicardoNY1]

Any bad flare in FS is forgivable, because FS does not give you all the visuals or sensory feedback to name a few that you need in order to properly flare. It's close, but not 100%. Any real world pilot will tell you the same. What counts is that you are practicing correct procedure.

[timothyngim]

@RicardoNY1 Wat do u mean (by ur 1st sentence)

[RicardoNY1]

@timothyngim It means you do not have the accurate visual perceptions of distance to name a few visual drawbacks nor can you feel what the aircraft is doing, etc. It's the equivalent of eating a food you can't taste or smell.

[zkcaptkirk]

@RicardoNY1 Agreed. There are types of flying that can benefit from flight simulator (helped me by running through procedures for my instrument rating), but landing isn't one of them. Getting close to your touch-down point, bringing the nose to the horizon, feeling the plane slowly sink and gently bringing that nose up and washing off the speed, hoping you've brought it level just a few feet above the ground so the plane just kisses the ground... none of that (really) can be practiced on FSX

[diamondcrafter100]

What key you press to flare because i wana get stupid on landing because when i TRY landing i bounce like REALY high.

[BBVAGoals]

@diamondcrafter100 tehrs no key!just press d 2 button to keep d nose up n dats a flare!check out my video on my channel!

[MrPranoy]

@diamondcrafter100 come in in a slow speed. for a 737, kepp from 150 to 145. And make sure ur decend rate isnt to fast

[captcorp]

I´m not a professional pilot but I have quite experience in FSX, another recomendation to do a normal landing is put slowly the power into 35 to 40% then put the nose in 10 max 15 degrees, thats what I do and its seems good for me, just check the appropiate landing speed for your aircraft. by the way thanks for the video.

[levelat350]

I flare up on landing all the time.Besides I suck at landing!

[socksy1999]

00:09 was an epic landing and thanks for the tip about not flaring in mid air because i do that and that makes my landings realy sucky

[FSXCaribbeanflyer12]

these tips helped me and inproved my landing thanks

[MrTornadoman97]

What developer is that C152 from?

[hd5770Gamer]

@MrTornadoman97 its just the standard cessna 172

[MrTornadoman97]

@hd5770Gamer really? to me it looked like a 152...oh well :P

[FSXFan1090]

on 0:40 with the 747 with his ''to much'' flare thats how im always flying idk why but if im on 30K feet on a normale speed of 230/240 im always flaring...

[Domas963]

@FSXFan1090 Try to fly with more speed.

[pkpjn2000]

@FSXFan1090 I don't think it's flaring, but maybe it tail heavy, means maybe try to balance the weight to front...

[16striker16]

Adjust the graphic sliding box to higher settings and see what will happen.

[howardflight09]

Flare at about 4.5 degrees nose up

[ChristianPC100]

@Cessna154: How About Taildragger they can Flare on it

[16striker16]

@Domas963

its up to you if you want to do a hard break or low break (Auto)

I don't recommend full break tough, I have an Ils landing , I only have 1 video ^_^ , thats the effect of Full auto break I stop around 3 seconds after touching the ground.

But please if you watch it, Just ignore the graphic setting I have a slow computer during that time. Thanks

[Domas963]

@16striker16 I land with full auto break but still no smoke. ;(

[16striker16]

@Domas963

Graphic settings?

[Domas963]

@16striker16 what option is need to be on?

[BuckwheatTech]

Minneapolis, That's my airport :)

[Domas963]

16striker16 2 or 1

[kenty953]

HotKey for spoilers?

[MegaBasketballchamp]

when u are above the runway u are suppose to pull back on the nose to cushion the landing dont pull back before you reach the runway

[Kevinadnyzio]

What is the last airport?

[Domas963]

How do you make a lot of smoke when touchdown, because when im land there is no smoke..

[16striker16]

@Domas963

Auto break?



[Domas963]

@16striker16 2 or 1

[quintenkamsteeg]

wtf are you doing with the 747?

[ourtwodogs]

what airport is this?

[DanTheCaptain]

what about the Dash-8? the dash-8 on landing has a high lift rate. a least that's how i see it. please help.

[SeweynC]

how do u get different planes

[onlyFS9]

@SeweynC go to simviation(dot)com, you get a lot of add ons. Go to simviation(dot)com/acinstall.h­tm to learn how to put them on the game

[carolynamitchell]

i don't flare prop planes

[ThEcSN00b]

Thank you!

[TheXXReVoLuTiOnXx]

good I wanted to ask a question.

I have the fs2004 and want to set the controls for the management of aircraft as you have them. to a single keystroke if you understand me because I hope the answer thanks for reading.

[pi27366]

How Do You Open The Engines When You Land?

[ROTAX129]

@pi27366 Hold F2 when on the ground

[onlyFS9]

@pi27366 press and don't let go of F2 key

[rcacad]

NEVER NEGLECT THE TECHNOLOGY TO get a better grasp on what your doing.

dont forget the engineering in the cocpit, the view might be great but if you dont scan constantally and use what you got.......its like watching an old lady walk

[hutuhfhah]

awsome, this guy is so awsome at flying i usally have trouble :'( but im learning with my saitek pro flight yoke system and fsk gold edition, delux and accelaration :)

[mraltay10]

what is your airspeed in the first landing,??@0:05 ??

[Wyatt277]

I love it, but do you use ATC ? plz respond

[iamsam2407]

Try landing on centerline more.

[GoingToBeAPilot1]

Hi,

I just posted a video response, it would mean a lot if an expert like you could comment even just a small evaluation, to help me improve. I am only 13.

[MegaLusterDragon]

Thank you very much dude! I just got my Flight Simulator X today from the mail. I learned how to land with the way you taught me how to flare.

[jhaunte01]

did he for get the brakes on the first landing?

[bodochecker]

Don't use unreal Airlines, or your videos will be shit!

[Corkscrew777doughnut]

When he says the "when the pilot did this....e.g. flare, throttle up.... etc." isnt the pilot just him?? =) anyways love the vids cessna154..... keep it up

[trevorskates94]

What airport is at 2:30????

[vidaloca07]

very good video thank you

[unixkid52]

Bye FSX And Thanks Cessna I'm Leaving FSX MAYBE ill be back i already can flare :)

[marcsoldaat]

Man in the demo I fail because when I steer to the left, hes really going to the left, little bit too much. How do I stop this?

[Yulimaruli]

@marcsoldaat I had the same problem when I played the demo just ignore them like count to 10 or 15 seconds and than line up with the run way.

[marcsoldaat]

@Yulimaruli K ty

[JoEnSlIpKnOt5678]

hey your cool at this game i need to know how to line up with the runway im allso last and i have to make sudden turn this over streesed my aircraft ( boing 737 800 ) can you help

thanks!

[DarkwerefoxRed]

Nice video!!!

I'll post one nearly crash, vid response for you, enjoy.

I don't think I flared to much on approach and landing, but I put the thrust to idle to soon.

[torero34]

whats the proper flare angle genreally??

[kevini15]

what are your settings?

[4W4YYY]

When I land with the CRJ-700 I flare it slightly but it the nose goes down quicker. I don't have this problem with other aircrafts

[cessna182turbo]

Go DENVER INTERNATIONAL

[JtwPix100]

How do you slow down you aircraft when your on tail view i just started playing i do free flight

[volcom1722]

@JtwPix100 Hey maet, I can help you out if you personal message me since I don't want to spam his video :-)

But just quickly, F1 on your keyboard idles the throttle, but F2 will gradually decrease throttle.

[JtwPix100]

@volcom1722 Thank you... :)

[lifes7holy7skateprk7]

what i usually do that helps me a lot is come in sometimes a little bit faster than touchdown speed like in a 737 ill come in 150 then throw it to idle at the last couple feet above the runways and increase flare each time it starts dropping faster thts how i do it sometimes the best way is come in but make sure your not going to slow its better to go a little too fast than slow you can always idle it wen you nee dto if so or go around but if too slow well your screwed

[onebrokencyde]

what airport was at 2:30??

[rjevon617]

u just called us stupid.

[FreakNivez]

How to get the brakes on wing up?, and how to reverse thrust, and is it free?? ^^, Love ur videos!!!

[captainhanish]

@FreakNivez u can press right slash key for speed brakes and F2 FOR REVERSE THRUST

[FreakNivez]

@captainhanish Thanks alot!! :D

[captainhanish]

@FreakNivez anytime

[jdawg211able]

the 1 with the 747 it only happened to me once

[irfan123100]

i'm the 600th comment :D

[tohiet]

i cessna can you help me how to download th dc-10 or md-11.I have fsx butt edition

[ashfaquramin]

Hi, how do you judge the right height for landing. For example, what should your height be when you are say on a 2 mile final?

[denhou1974]

@ashfaquramin 100 feet per nautical mile = approximately 1 degree. So if you are on a 3 degree approach at 2 nautical miles then you will be at ~600 feet. Additionally, a 3 degree approach = 20:1 ratio (20' forward for every 1' down). In 'real world' aviation in a prop plane you'd be at around 500' on 1/2 mile final. Any lower and you wouldn't be able to glide to the runway if you needed to. Most pilots don't look at the altimeter though. Practice and you won't need it.

[sporealanw]

how can i activate the warning voice which tells you the hieght above the runwa?

[lugonic97]

@sporealanw thats a add on

[MrDeanonline]

@sporealanw that is not a warning, these are normal call outs and there not available in the default aircrafts of fsx. I recommend VasFMC, google it. Its a fully working FMC and includes callouts.

[sporealanw]

@MrDeanonline

Problem, FSX is not running as well on my computer, thats why i use fs2004. It fells almost the same. =}

CPU: Intel core 2 quad q8300 (4x 2.5 GHz)

nVidia Geforce GTX 260

4 GB ram

[MrDeanonline]

@sporealanw well, the call outs are not available in the default airplanes of FS9 aswell :D so download the VASFMC! ;D it has call outs and its working with FSX and FS9.

[FSXforever413]

nice  thanks for the tips

[soldier50160]

prees shift +z once for what you see seconf for fuel and stuff and

[TheSmashedStudios]

How do you have the red bar at the top showing airspeed, heading, etc?

[SuperComplainer]

@TheSmashedStudios shift-z

[myplus18yearsaccount]

How do you reverse thrust? i think its F2 under the button layouts it is labeled as decrease throttle.

[ThiefOfMovies]

@myplus18yearsaccount After touching down, only after, then the reverse thrust is available. so, after touching down long press F2 until you see the reverse thrust is fully engaged.

[AYWTF]

a turkish airlines 737 was in retard flare mode and the plane stalled and 10 pepole died

[killerpigeon347]

this video seriously needs to be shown to ryanair pilots

[TheRobaroba]

@killerpigeon347 there you go boy.i would prefer i do the flaring myself ( lol )ive flown with them twice and hehehe...i flare on my seat

[dangerman400]

what is the speed and flap degree during approach and touchdown?

[rjc0234]

lol. i once landed a light aircraft, but forgot to flare. scared the fecal matter out of the pilot :P

[KjandRhi]

what key button do you press to flare?

[Deltapilot96]

@KjandRhi You don't "press a key", you just pull back on the stick/mouse at about 20 feet above the runway

[KjandRhi]

@Deltapilot96 ok ill try:)

[KjandRhi]

@Deltapilot96 but when i do that i go up!

[Deltapilot96]

@KjandRhi What aircraft do you fly? If you go up when flaring you either have too much speed or you flare too much. If you flare too much you will go up a little then loose speed and stall. Use the prefered landing speed for your current aircraft (737/A321=135-140 kts, 747=150-160 kts) and flare just about 5 degrees

[KjandRhi]

@Deltapilot96 i dont really know how to change speed, i think thats why im not flareing

[Deltapilot96]

@KjandRhi If you don't know how to change your speed I suggest tryin Mission 1.

[ACIsrock]

i sometimes land alittle to soon, can you help me

[Deltapilot96]

@ACIsrock Help yourself, try it over and over again. I don't land perfectly either but I keep trying :) good luck!

[AShadowbox]

@ACIsrock Just because you can't see the end of the runway does not mean you are above the runway. If you look left and right you should be able to tell you're over the runway before touching down :)

[ACIsrock]

@AShadowbox thx for telling me

[AShadowbox]

@ACIsrock No problem :)

[TheMercuryman2]

has there ever been the mistake of flaring after the main wheels touch down?

[ShelbyGT500TT]

what airport was that at 2:36???

[delaney4708]

cessna thank you i bet your a pilot

[sharpers123]

@delaney4708 He's not.

[delaney4708]

@sharpers123 ok

[lewiinen]

best speed to land for 737-8 ?

[SIRUS84]

@lewiinen the best speed for a boeing 737-800 is about 160-165 nautical miles per hour.

[FSXFan1090]

question sometimes my plane goes flaring with autpoliot on you know om 30,000 hight 330 knots in a long flight he goes out hiself go flaring and then i go stall YEAH FINE 3 hours FLYING FOR NOTHING

[xxdreamsxx100]

@FSXFan1090 what is a averega landing speed for 747

[FSXFan1090]

@xxdreamsxx100 if i land a 747 i go land with 160knots :)

[baleanua]

thanks, this flaring tutorial helped me with making 

[UncleSamProduction]

a lot of your landings are either too low or too high. Or was that part of the video beside showing it

[boycoollike]

about 2 3 weeks ago i was on jetblue flight 78 MCO-JFK The pilot landing in jfk flared right when we hit the ground the freaking pilot bounced off the runway twice and stalled the plane the 3rd resulting in A Very freaking hard landing Worst part of all he taxied off the runway at 45 knots. And he braked pretty hard.

[haoobpunk]

what button do u click to flare the aircraft?

[MrRockchopper1989]

@haoobpunk there isent a button for flaring. you do it manuely(correct me if iam wrong)

[TheRobaroba]

@MrRockchopper1989. flaring is about the most appropriate and suitable altitude.attitude and speed in relation to ground proximity.forget buttons go-around and practice other wise you'll it'll sink hard right in you bum

[baleanua]

@haoobpunk there is no freaking button to flare the aircraft! Why would there be!?. Do you think there is a button that just lifts the front of the plane off!?!?!?!?!?!?

[SIRUS84]

@haoobpunk there is no button to make your plane flare it's all done manually with your joystick.

[Protagonist]

My flaring technique is part of making a soft landing. I don't flare to simply get the rear down first, I flare to reduce the impact the plane has on the runway.

Doing it this way is much easier, it simply requires you to watch you v/s indicator during finals and changing your pitch accordingly. Obviously your approach speed is important, just check you kneeboard for stall speeds with flaps before your approach. Just stay about 10-15% over the stall speed and cut engines when over the runway.
