Extend flap Action

[treelizard99]

This pilot went crazy ! He frikin landed that plane at almost full speed !! (slight exaggeration but u get the point)

[marjunald3z]

a380? :D

[Fallschirmjaeger963]

question: if spoilers would be set inverted, so not like this : WIND -> /_

but like this: WIND -> _\

would the plane brake faster?

[captain150]

@Fallschirmjaeger963 Not significantly. The point of the spoilers is to "spoil" the airflow over the wing which significantly reduces the lift being generated. This allows the weight of the plane to go onto the wheels, which allows much higher brake forces to be used. The brakes and reverse thrust of the engines do most of the slowing down, the spoilers are mainly just to reduce the lift from the wings.

[Fallschirmjaeger963]

@captain150 i thought that it'd slow down much faster, because like that /_ the air flows easier above the wings..._\ and like this less airflow and faster slowdown?

[phurdlernz1]

@Fallschirmjaeger963 In a sense you are right, the problem with what you are saying is this: the air spoilers are not only used for breaking the airflow over the wing on the groundroll while slowing down; they are also used in high speed flight .At high speed the aircraft will use differential spoilers to bank as the use of ailerons can have an unstable effect. the differential spoilers are more stable and help to bank the plane. if they were inverted this could not occur.

[phurdlernz1]

@phurdlernz1 Or at least it COULD occur, but you would be left with on severely broken aeroplane :P hope that makes sense

[TheQbskateteam]

no you guys are all wrong this is a 456 lemon freeride spaceship with something called candy flaps... its this spacy technology that none of you wouldm understand caus im bill cosby jr.

[CWESTLIFE123]

is that Hongkong?

[alithewelt]

flaps...

[Trevo711]

United 747-400

[kssianoperes1989]

speed brakes...

[retroman808]

a heavy jet its like a A380 or Antonov 255? and a beluga

[theiopl22]

every single fu**ing plane there is a baby crying just before landing!!!!!!!

[fenderstratocaster96]

@TDLouwman its a freaking aileron

[TheCrisandairtwins]

747,not a heavy jet

[fenderstratocaster96]

@TheCrisandairtwins not a heavy jet? then what? an antonov is a lightweight to you too i guess? so whats heavyweight? a flying oil ship?

[wizzair1313]

its called speed brakes

[chrisklein21]

747-400. can't miss those dripple slotted fowler flaps. also nice wing Vortices. great video

[xazns0ulx]

i bet this airport is KSFO(san franciso)

[ruyjo1]

that was one soft landing!

[PE3TS123]

nah dude its a 347zxy.3759 dude you guys are such noooooobs go back to school you loosers 

[globemaster68]

that is a landing at SFO over the bay, that was awesome!!!!

[1982FMJ]

what are those parts under the flaps which look like booms or long cones. Are they the motor housing unit for the flaps.

[DiNoZs1]

how do they extend flaps can anyone tell me?

[Helicopterpilot16]

@DiNoZs1 Through a very complicated system, Each flap section is a wing, Each section runs on a track like a roller coaster and that track is hidden by the flap pylon. Each section of flap is designed to move out at a certain setting and increase the AOA (Angle of Attack) at certain settings.

[DiNoZs1]

@Helicopterpilot16

Thank you

[tetramoo]

kruger flaps and wingtip fences

[Helicopterpilot16]

@tetramoo Kruger flaps are a form of leading edge flap devices, Not trailing edge flaps.

[aolyahoo]

still an a380... you stupid asses

[Helicopterpilot16]

@aolyahoo Your funny, no its not.

[RHCP9181]

Landing in KSFO.

[XF108FINALE]

Inboard and outboard spoilers and control tab....

[DenisKomment]

that's really interesting, thanks for the video!

[NoobyRC]

ever stop to think those wings are holding all the weight of the aircraft the all the weight of all the junk they cary and all the weight of all the people on board.

Its a wounder how those wings dont snap off!

[mowglibj91]

its a 747 i fly them

[tetramoo]

@mowglibj91 yes !I am the 1st officer flying rubber dog shit out of taiwan on my boeing 757-300.

[8k7k6k5k4k]

IT'S THE 747-400 YOU IDIOTS THAT DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT PLANES!!!

[aolyahoo]

a380 u idiots

[halo2windows]

@aolyahoo

Since when did United operate A380s you idiot?

[poke70ve]

@halo2windows exactly

b747s have winglets only on the top

[poke70ve]

@halo2windows i have a united airlines a380 in my fsx but not in the reality

[HansensUniverse]
