[MFSPilot]

HAHHAHAHA That one dislike is a retard

[737FSPilot]

Is this Insel Air?

[fernousdu972]

Awesome footage! Very nice view. What a low pass!

[flyingCitation]

Maddog ! Like a boss ! ;)

[3ryanandwendy]

Love the way it makes you feel like your right there in the cock pit with the sheir and turbulance........ This is the first vid I can actually say isnt completly full of you tube bull shizznit!!!

[Md80123]

@BustBunker since there were crosswinds turning the yoke stops the winds from changing there approach and landing and makes the plane strait at touchdown

[Md80123]

Where is it coming from

[lundaruben]

Great video! i love it!

BON BON Serge figo druk ey den office

[Duitslond]

What camera is this?

[alex4054]

One word for this EXCELLENT. Hopi bon brother danki pa bo infight videos for di e flight deck

[Slaterator]

Very nice video ! This maddog has -for me- a cool history. It was originally delivered new to Aero Lloyd (former german airline) in 1987. I had a trip to Mallorca (Spain) exactly on this plane in 1997. So I´am very glad to see that this bird is still flying. And I´am even more excited to know that this aircraft is now landing on my favourite airport St. Maarten. Good work ! Thank´s for sharing !!

wow

[Avolp777]

You always have terrific Videos. Thank you.

[nefta235]

gran video...y ese MD me encanta...un saludo

[ocud1]

your back?! :) more uploads pleaseee!! ive missed you ;)

[TheTemest]

How about a can of Rustoleum for those battered yolks?

[JerdooFlightX]

Great to see something again on this channel! Thanks for uploading!!!

[piotsim]

Relay amazing, and just like always good vid from you !! :) Good landing, i think- about landing not easy, i mean this weight, just like 'heavy' :D ... and this beautiful cockpit sound.. i'm love this old classic aircraft.

regards from PL ;-)

[blackwolfsquadron]

DC-9 boy am i glad im not flying one of those anymore!

[Bonypart]

Superb video. Can't get enough of your flights! Keep 'em coming!

[steve2972]

Wow,really hammering the sticks on landing,is that normal?

[haitiano1982]

The heavy steering is needed because of the heavy wweight and very aft cg. Small control input has almost no effect on the corrections needed so big input is needed. This video shows exactly why the MD80 is the only MADDOG around.

[737FSPilot]

@haitiano1982 I believe that is because the control wheel is linked to cables, rather than a Fly-by-Wire electronic system found on newer jets. Am I right?

[haitiano1982]

@737FSPilot well i doubt it, i havent flown any FBW a/c yet, so i can't give you an exact answer to that, but what i know is aerodynamics and with a heavy aircraft, the same ailerons need some extra deflection to get the job done. so i dont really think it's about the FBW or cable. remember cables are cables, they dont really stretch or lag. and the other thing is this long tube with an aft cg requires manhandling. just hte way this a/c works

[737FSPilot]

@haitiano1982 Ok, perhaps you are right. Thanks for the reply!

[xXHyPerTCXx]

I don't know much about airplanes so I have a question, why does the pilot turn the steering wheel around so much just before the landing?

[teampenske17]

More like these please! Simply an amazing video. Thanks for sharing.

[rekarts]

awesome video!

[seno862]

Wow he was jerking that yoke like crazy!

Great video!!

[worldspottingexhibit]

First officer was turning that yoke before touchdown like crazy!

[stevegauth30]

nice, what are the lights on landing?available rev. thrust?

[rgiaco777]

@stevegauth30 Yep. The amber lights indicate that the reversers are unlocked, and the blue lights indicate that reverse is available.

[neilzep]

love your videos...keep them coming bro!

[BusterBunker]

Does the MD-80 not respond to input that low to the ground? It looks like the FO was banking to the left and right like crazy, but nothing was happening. Almost like the control surfaces were not responding. Or, maybe is the characteristics of the MD-80 that low the ground?

[rgiaco777]

@BusterBunker The MD-80, with its aerodynamically-driven ailerons and elevators, usually seems to be a bit more sluggish than jets with conventional hydraulic flight controls. This is due to the fact that when the pilot moves the control column, he or she is actually moving a control tab on each aileron, which in turn moves the ailerons through aerodynamic forces. This takes a bit of time.

[BusterBunker]

Thanks very much. I did not know that.

[DeadlyInertia]

Amazing!

[lacarretadelamuerte]

nice
