Was this a landing on 26? I don't believe they even have an approach plate for it, you just have to use the rwy 08 approach plate and then circle... right?
Very funny. I loved hearing those wheels come down.....so familiar. I have flown so many times to Alaska and back.....nice ti see it again from on high. :) Good job!
@Abascabanochies shoulda landed in sitka before they made the runway longer and wider, they used to have to land with the brakes locked, and all you see on either side was water since runway was made on a pile of rocks forming a man-made peninsula.
From what I've seen in pictures and videos, Alaska is a beatiful place. I really want to go there (even though I don't even live on American continent). Perhaps, next summer.
Isnt it freaky! Looks like the person filiming is in a reverse crash position with their knees on the floor and head cocked sideways. Blew my fuckin mind!
Yes, Juneau is a small city of approximately 31,000. It is actually the Capital City of Alaska. The airport, although not very large, it is in my opinion, appropriately sized for all its use.
I live here in Juneau and fly often. The lengthening of the runway is a safety issue and the new terminal is not a size issue it is to improve the security, safety and efficiency. We depend on our airport so much. It is so vital to the community because of our access situation, or lack there of. The population at the last sentence was 33K. That doesn't include the seasonal workers or any tourists that pass through. A new census is being conducted as we speak. That number will rise.
@leon6266 the terminal is small. the airport itself its actually very big for the size of the town with all the small airlines, and heli-ports that also have to supply all the small villages around SE AK, . AKair/cargo, temsco, northstar, skagair, ward air, wings, LAB, the one next to skagair, name? and the yellow choppers, UPS, fedex, and national guard lol. used to deliver to all them but been gone 3 years cant remember them all. stay away from LAB (Lands Along Belly / Lost in Alakskan Bush)
I wish I could say this a normal landing in Juneau. You got a gorgeous day and that may have been the last sunny day here. lol Just kidding, I think we had one last month. :) (not kidding)
ummm i dont think they were. I believe FAA guidelines state that you have to be above a certain altitude. ... something like that. besides, it's prolly just some condensation from the wings- perfectly normal.
First of all...hello from Brazil. I'm planing a trip to Juneau next October. Do you believe I can still see bears in October? What is the spot close to Juneau to see them?
Hello, marcoferraz. I am a current resident of Juneau Alaska and I came across your question:) Yes, most definitely you can plan to see bears in October, but really only if you go hiking on one of the trails in the Valley or possibly on Douglas island. Your best bet on catching a glimpse of a bear would be going to the Mendenhall Glacier, where bears tend to rome. If you have any other questions concerning Juneau, feel free to ask:)
Thanks for the video man. I can't wait to fly out there next year. What did you do there? I want to get my float plane rating and some damn good high altitude and mountain instruction.
I am sorry to hear that. Many people here in Cordova also had family/friends on board that flight. A tragic event. Every time I land in Juneau with bad weather, I can't help but think of that flight. I recognize your fathers name as the Second Officer of the crew that day.
Thank you,my mom and him divorced when I was two and he remarried and had three other children Greg,jeff,and kerry who I never met I have been looking for them for twenty years. Kip
Yes, sometimes landing in Juneau can be a real "white knuckle" experience! The scary part is when you have a real clear day landing, and see how close the hills and trees can get when coming in from the north!..But it is all worth it after spending time in Juneau!
Yes, technically you are correct. They, (the flight attendants),go on to explain about anything that can send or recieve a signal. I shot this with a Kodak DX4330 still cam. But I guess it is still an electronic device!
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL APPROACH. I COULD SMELL THE PINE TREES

@xsilverstudx The pilots weren't dumping fuel. What you seen is called upwash of the leaning edge and downwash of the trailing edge of the wing.
