Monarch Airlines Airbus A300-600 Insane Flare

[pushitgently001p]

Aerodynamic braking,it's a good way of extending brake life,

[JoEnSlIpKnOt5678]

My father flies for monarch so "go Monarch"

[CodeGreen47]

haha, i like CRJ70 at 014

[greetenmax]

low speed high alfa! good pilot!

[jjaus]

It is a shame they're, note spelling, they're, it's not hard, it's a contraction (squashed together) of two English words....they.....are..... they're. There is over THERE. Their is belongs to them. They're is they are. FFS, it's not that difficult, especially for English speakers.

[CosmicHero8]

@jjaus Nobody cares, it doesn't matter

[JoaoBatist4]

ali tinha um Embraer 145

[DefenderofLindon]

Looks to me like he let his speed decay a bit too much in his final seconds before landing.... hence pulling the nose up so much during the "flare"

[jackd166]

A lot of A300s land like this. Anyone know why?

[Joefsxpilot]

Did I say anywhere in that sentence I was Expert No and thats only the Truth Ive seen it many times so dont start an argument with me

[Joefsxpilot]

Going to slow and needed more flaps that s why it flared like that that was bad landing

[snedie69er]

@Joefsxpilot

Yes because been an armchair pilot makes you an expert

[Pip2andahalf]

@snedie69er He didn't claim to be an expert... But what he said makes sense... They shorted the landing for one reason or another, so it had to be flared to increase stopping force...

[easyairbus]

@Joefsxpilot

You do realise the flaps ARE set to FULL??

[TheTriforcebearer]

could someone please explain what a flare is?

[arun141092]

@TheTriforcebearer it's a small landing maneuver that makes landings smoother, puts less stress on the front wheels and slow down the plane before fully touching down. when an aircraft is approaching the runway, it will be slightly pointing nose down. flaring means the pilots pull back on the controls, so that the nose points up right before touching the ground. in this case, the pilot kept pulling back for too long, causing the plane to wheelie for too long before all the wheels touch down.

[TheTriforcebearer]

@arun141092 alright that makes sense, thanks ^^

[John1483]

It is an old aircraft that is why is been retired like 727 737-100 and 200 series the L-1011 The DC-9 DC-10 DC-8 they getting old and those airframe only can hold for someny cicles

[9T6Q]

holy fuck rofl

[fs10inator]

2007 is not a good year, A300s and A310s are out of production

:(

[xxxlayxlowxxx]

I noticed that a lot of times when I see pilots land the A300 they usually have an extreme flare, to the point of you think they're gonna touch & go... Why is that?

[altazboy]

insane??? why??? looks like a light-weight normal landing to me..

[AirbusA330Pilot]

@altazboy he pulls up the nose way too much so that he almost got a tail strike, and after touch down the nose came down very late

[altazboy]

@AirbusA330Pilot i was an instructor/check airman in that type for 7 years and it just looks like a lightweight landing to me... he did use aerodynamic braking which isn't recommended but certainly not by any means "insane"..

[AirbusA330Pilot]

@altazboy 0:28 you dont call this an insane flare?!

[altazboy]

@AirbusA330Pilot maybe to someone who hasn't seen very much in this business. anyway, i'm pretty bored with the topic,, give it up will you please... I've got aircraft to fly not talk about, I don't know if you actually fly airplanes but you won't be calling this "insane" if you ever get some real experience. Good luck.. over and out..

[AirbusA330Pilot]

@altazboy he i never wanted to start such a fight, I just mentioned my opinion.. but I can not unterstand how you call that a normal flare when the aircraft's tail is just centimeters away from touching the runway :S and one other thing to put straight: Ive got big experience about airplanes...

[flygweilo]

@AirbusA330Pilot I'd have to agree with altazboy here ... the aircraft is landing on 23R at Manchester, and there's a hump at about 1,500' down the runway. Viewed from this angle, it looks as though the tail is close to the ground, but it's something of an optical illusion.

i used to fly the &47-400 in to Manchester for a number of years, and it's something f an art-form to avoid the 'hump'.

[LemonMeringuePie444]

i always fly with monarch i think they are one of the best companys to fly with xD

[bonbondesel]

Wow !!! I like the way airbus pilots can maintain nose wheel up to prevent hard touch when nose is very high !!! But wasn't close to a tail strike ?

[KiDFRANKKK]

nah that wasnt bad. Besides theres a piece of metal on the back of these planes that you can just barely see in this vid, that scrapes instead of the tail.

[altazboy]

@KiDFRANKKK true, but that piece of metal is the doorbell to the chief pilot's office... ahemmm... hahaha

[BasingstokePSB]

Doofyah!

[Carlsbergx10]

speaking of THE 757'S, due to a technical hitch with an airbus a-321 i flew on flight ZB595-Boeing 757-2T7-G-MONJ on Aug 19th on a delayed night flight from Faro to Manchester, a lovely flight indeed. i live the 757's and of course the sound of the engines when they kick in on take-off.

[bassplaya1549]

Looks like he was using aerodynamic breaking...slowed down pretty quick actually. haha

[pelagic6]

That's a nice Global Express in the beginning.

[d0rkiishchris]

thats a good way to pay no attention to your Vref

[hickspixx]

Looks like a perfectly normal landing. Over a slight brow of the hill. Where was this filmed by the way?

[scorpian865]

cool vid, i recently flew on G-MAJS from london gatwick to heraklion

[ForUSimulatorVideos]

Maybe There was a girl in the air and he Wanted to see it :D

[DaddyElephant]

I love A300's and A310's and its a shame there disappearing :(

[tom211t]

@DaddyElephant True say, i got a thing about those birds too...

[j4cko56]

@DaddyElephant they only stopped making them a year or so ago!

[Ilovegogosable]

@DaddyElephant yup be happy fedex and ups are gonna keep the a300's in there fleet until 2020 and monarch are gonna phase out a300's and replace it with 777 and there gonna keep there a310's

[WreckonizeYM]

Greased ;)

[TheSwedishBuB]

#LOL this is crazy

[Helicopterpilot16]

Make it look like a 767 fo sho!

[funkysam123]

@Helicopterpilot16 definately an A300-600 Monarch AL

[Aviationnation10]

i hate the a300s there crap and so noisy all the new airbuses are 100000 times better

[dntist]

@Aviationnation10 this bird was one of the best of its era

[Flamingos40]

@Aviationnation10 Without the A300, how the hell would they develop the A380, or is that Boeing's job?

[Aviationnation10]

@Flamingos40 it has verry little in comon with the a380

[Flamingos40]

@Aviationnation10 If there was no A300, then there wouldnt be any money or research for the A380.

[Aviationnation10]

@Flamingos40 o ya and a320..

[Flamingos40]

@Aviationnation10 That came after the A300.....A300 in the 1980's and A320 in the Mid to late 1990's.

[360tutorialsTV]

#LOL almost tail strike

[b747flightboi]

almost a tail strike there!!! LOL

[piperlaw]

that thing u sed was an insane flare was the headlights !!

[knaphilllee]

Monarch are already scrapping 757's in place A321's !!

[stevehindy39]

@knaphilllee sorry but Mon arent scrapping their 757's in favour of 321's ...the 757's that departed were of high hours ....the 321's do not have the range of the 757's and will never be an ideal replacement for them. Out of the four that left the Mon fleet only two were retired from flying service ...the other two went to Fedex.

[dan5060]

i love this aircarft. i went on the G-MAJS on the 5th and the 12th of september from gatwick and from rhodes. beutiful aircraft from monarch and airbus. i had the right amount of money i would buy G-MAJS. i luv her lol

[MonarchA300]

if i had enough money i would buy G-MONS. i went on it to palma.

[anita480]

Monarch should get more leg room and tvs in chairs I can imagine what it would be like with tvs in chairs monarch interface start page once they trash 757s i bet it would be all 767s and 777s but I doubt theyed be working for another 50 years then they would callapse

[DjHardaFasta]

i doo like the look of the a300s though specially in that paint! :)

[bjwigglworth]

g monr 540th 1990

g mons 556th 1990

g majs 604th 1991

g ojmr 605th 1991

just come back from rhoads to gatwick on g monr went out on g mons

both smooth flights, cabin in good nick for 19years old! both need a paint job

want to go on one of there 1980s 757s before they go

[domjw0012]

Whoa! Mega flare! :D

[WatchOutDuck]

watch?v=CCmcVFt8Y7c&feature=ch­annel_pag

[tangokl]

How many a300's do monarch have?

[blueb0g]

I think 4.
