A330 Cockpit View : YPPH JULIM 4 ARRIVAL ILS Z RW 03 NIGHT APPROACH AND LANDING

[scootmcgoot1]

I think it would be kind of cool to rig a second camera on a magic arm shooting the PFD/ND instruments during your approach videos, and edit them in to the forward view.

I'm also wondering how much the FMS helps during VOR approaches, doesn't YMML have a VOR approach?

@scootmcgoot1

It helps to use the FMS for non precision approaches. Reduces alot of workload. Yes, YMML does have a RW34 VOR approach but most people prefer to use the RNAV approach nowadays.

Wow. 186t landing weight (187t is max available for A333). You must have been carrying a lot of cargo for a relatively short sector? Excellent vids, keep 'em coming!

Merci beaucoup.

Great video man, Keeps the inspiration going!!

can't wait to complete my Bachelor and CPL for aviation !

gets closer everyday!

I like the music--it goes well with this approach video! Annotations were nice as well!

Keep it up!

Wow! Nice! Perfect music for the perfect video! What's the music's title?

During landing roll when do you usually disarm autobrake system (Speed) ?

It probably depends on RWY conditions (dry, wet, slush etc.) right ?

Techniques for release autobrakes system can affect passenger comfort and landing distance...As I remember from 777 FCTM disarming brakes before coming out from reverse thrust provides a smooth transition to manual braking.

How does it work in A330 ?

[airtimbuktu]

@patryk7771

Between 60 kts to 40 kts, regardless of runway conditions. Doing this at low speed provides the best transition and control.

Incredible video! The music is beautiful!

Fav-ed it!!=D

Just a question, is the Airbus control very sensitive on pitch?

[airtimbuktu]

@dedeyun

Yes, it's very responsive on all axis. See the sidestick cam videos.

[dedeyun]

@airtimbuktu Ehh, Then I'm still quite unsure about the FBW logic when it comes to landing. I heard that once it reaches a certain height, it automatically change to direct law? Mind explaining further into that? Thx

[airtimbuktu]

@dedeyun

Yes, at 50 ft, the pitch axis changes to direct law while the roll axis remains in normal law. This results in a need to pull back on the stick to flare. Very natural and instinctive. The logic and all those fancy FBW stuff is quite transparent to pilots.

@airtimbuktu Thx for the info ^^
