  • This happened to me about 5 years ago coming back from Spain. We were landing in Dublin. I could see the runway and was just waiting for the plane to touch down but then the plane took off like a rocket. Everyone screaming as well. Scary experience. People farted or could have shit themselves, my father turns to me and says 'Jesus if the fucking plane dosen't kill us the smell of shit will finish us off'. To this day I find that hilarious!

  • the wings lot really flapy on that plane

    

  • @CherrywoodLLS yeah, they do. Kind of like... Every other aircraft in the World! If they didn't flex they'd snap clean of...

  • British army on the runway

  • Dod dod dod dough na....

    Another late arrival by Ryanair!

    S h I t e airline !!!

  • @slickxrick1am how is ryanair a shite airline?

  • very usual for ryanair

  • He won't be too pleased with his pilots wasting so much fuel doing a go around like that.. I'm sure he hates the planes having to taxi enough as it is! He'd love to park them right ont he runway!

  • To be honest, I was expecting to see a Ryanair plane doing a few donuts.

  • Late call out ''Gear Up'' :) ''GO AROUND'' FLAPS 15 at the same time,''POSITIVE RATE'' GEAR UP'' :)))

  • why did she have to do that?

  • FAKE!!

  • I dont like Ryanair!

  • @Dylanforlife Was in training to be. Costs ended it for me.

  • @johnmacward I am private pilot. 550 hours. An overshoot or go around really isn't that big a deal. It's a safety thing. A good go around sure beats a bad landing. ;-)

  • was it too fast or it just missed approach ?

  • @rishiroypilot It looked way too high for where they we're on the runway, should have been way lower at that stage. Also the angle of attack was also a bit flay suggesting he probably was too fast as well. Bad.

  • @johnmacward Are you a pilot?

  • @johnmacward yeah i haved to agree i released he was way to fast a few seconds in!! also a little to high

  • of course he did not loose his job go arounds are perfectly normal ffs

  • Great video! I've heard Ireland's very beautiful. :)

  • @FuryFeatherFun i live here.. and its boring as fuck. lol

  • they always give 45 mins of flying time of fuel for these things, great vids by the way keep up the good work :)

  • Haha, a go around, that's a lot of fuel! I guess the captain has to pay for it. No go arounds permitted on O'leary's airline!!

  • suprised there was enough fuel for a go around !!! ryanair fly with minimum fuel possible !

  • That's how you can pull out taxes.

  • @kevp So what. I've seen the gobshites with nothing better to do posting brain-dead juvenile comments on YouTube channels and videos. I have a job, thanks.

  • Haha, i've heard that RyanAir is taking money for people to go to the restroom now xD

  • Ryan AIr pilots suck.

  • i think the pilot could have made the landing.....

  • Why did he go around.. it looked fine

  • I hat ths shit!!

  • hehe :D Why pay lots of money to get into blackpool pleasure beach or something when you can pay £20 to go from prestwick to Dublin with Ryanair :P funfunfun

  • Ryanair are claimed to be SO much worse than they actually are.

    80% of the people that have said that Ryanair flights are the worst out of UK airlines, sadly haven't set foot on a Ryanair 738w.

    Mr O'Leary isn't bad either, he's very clever.

    Paying for toilets?

    Removing toilets to fit more seats?

    None of those are happening, he's just saying they will to get free advertising from people.

    The 737 has a strict evacuation procedure. Adding more seats would have to bypass it.

  • @GMuzicc good comment. I have flown with ryanair a few times with no problems at all. They are v. cheap and have modern aircraft. The may be a bit tacky but at least you dont get your flight cancelled or have your luggage lost like with BA!

  • $10,000 go around.

  • cool

  • this has happened to me many of times it's a bitch

  • They have bad pilots

  • In youtbe are many videos with ryanair go arounds xD. Does they often go aroun d? :D

  • @NaschinTV

    :D

  • ryanair and aer lingus rule!

  • ryan-air the worst airline ever

  • Nice Iron Man vídeo! :)

  • Do you have to pay for a Ryanair Go-Around?? xD

    yust kidding, i'd had it once in Eindhoven

  • @wesseldewerk No, but I'd say the pilot has to pay for the extra fuel out of his wages!

  • It's Ryanair, hwo know's :P

  • @mythicalireland i think is better to pay the fuel than everybody dies:D

  • @mythicalireland I doubt it because that it just encouraging pilots to make dangerous, unsafe landings! But what can I say? It's ryanair :L

  • @mythicalireland Ryanair has a no blame policy on go around, you can make as many as you can, you don't have to explain why you did it (but it's better if you do), and it costs the airline 400kg of fuel, so it's not that much for safety. They have to land with minimum 2 tons of fuel (+-1h) if the fuel required to go to alternate airport + 30 mins of holding is lower than that. Usually you have way more.

    One of the safest airline in the world now.

  • @wesseldewerk Do they have enough fuel to do a go-around?

  • @wesseldewerk hahahahahaha :)

  • @wesseldewerk ahhahaha just flew with em, dere was an australian bloke on board, made jokes about him having to pay for everything.

  • did you knew that ryanair has always the lowest fuel that you can get?

    thats very dangerous if you make a go-around

  • No actually sunshine its actually a legal requirement to have 1h30min worth of extra fuel onboard.

    And prior to this approach,prior to even them leaving whatever airport before this,they would have anticipated adverse weather and fuelled appropriatly to allow for possible 2 Go-Arounds and Diversion if neccesary!!So get your facts right before you comment.

  • may be true in Irland, however in France for eg the legal requirment is to have 20 min left of fuel when landing

  • its 40min in the UK

  • Ryanair planes are registered in Ireland(EI-***) and therefore are under IAA regulations,and im not sure about French law,but thats a ridiculous figure,thats not even enough to divert!!

  • @roelflok The so called "reserves" are the same with any operator, so your argument doesn't really have any facts to back it up. The usual amount you should have fuel onboard at the minimum at landing is the fuel you need to fly to your alternative arrival airport/airports, plus fuel for 30-45minutes for holding in holding pattern in case of unlandable weather conditions etc. In case you go below this so called "final reserve" you will then declare emergency and get priority one for landing.

  • Nice catch

  • I've flown to Dublin from Leeds & back on Ryanair on many occasions & it's always been a good flight, Ryanair get a lot of criticsm but they've always got me to my destination safe & on time & i don't want frills on a 50 minute flight just a safe journey ,Well done Michael o'Leary!! Ryanair are setting up more flights from my local airport Leeds/Bradford & i welcome them.

  • took him a long time to get the gear up

  • Oh! Had it enough fuel to make a missed approach?.... "Ruinair" sucks....

    Anyway, good video guy! :)

  • wow their turn arounds are shorter

  • Im not surprised....im leaving in Dublin for nearly 2 years and have been traveling a lot....most of the times with Ryanair....weather conditions in Ireland are terrible, winds and rain makes the landing tough sometimes....but in my opinion Ryanair have the most talented and well trained pilots in the world

  • yes defo. ryanair gets a bad rep for all their publicity stunts, and a lot of people get the impression that they are unsafe and cheap. but behind it all there is a great team of trained pilots who have a damn near perfect safety record. people should cut ryanair some slack - specially us irish. if anything, we should be proud.

  • great video!!! go on ryanair!!(and aer lingus!!)

  • remember our ryanair flight from alicante-leeds..bfd 19th jan this year just about to land probably 500 ft up my wife said never seen the front of the aircraft looking downwards as steep as this ...i just laughed but just b4 touchdown the engines roared and we were off again..20.mins later we were on the ground with a jolt ...inside the terminal the passport control guy said ..ye bit scary a near miss runway,ffs ye right.

  • leeds is a bad airport to fly into because of strong crosswinds 50% of the time

  • He might lost his job with doing that...

  • Off course after that Ryanair lost a lot of money :DDD

  • The lost of an brand new 737-800 + publicity damage would be ancountable , I am perfectly sure if Ryanair loses one plane because of a mistake like landing and not perform a go around they would go buzz in less than a year , the public finally would make their mind up poor pilots , lots of timepressure ,e.t.c. saving money on frills is fair enough but not safety .

  • why would he lose his job go-arounds are normal

  • how?

  • he might've lost his job if he'd landed! Pilot did right

  • every aircraft has difficulties in landing with these conditions..

  • Very nice video !!

  • Couldnt have gone much better, what with him powering up right as he passed you

  • Love the sound of those engines :)

    As signalorangers2k correctly suggests, a firm landing is better than a bounce.

  • If you like those engine sounds, watch my video called The Heavies on the Roll . . . :D

  • I've flown Ryanair literally hundreds of times. Their pilots "plant" the planes on the runway. It's not dangerous at all. I believe they are instructed to make a "positive" contact.

  • Yes thats true g good landing is where the plane makes firm contact with the ground

  • I've been on a ryanair flight where we hit the runway, then took off - I bet no one has expierienced that! I hate flying with ryanair for some reason. The landings are always rough compared to other airlines I have been on.

  • There is a video on YouTube somewhere showing just such a go-around. I think it was an Airbus A320. It seemed to land, but rocked from side to side in the wind, and then took off again. Scary experience I suppose. Not sure whether the "Ryanair rough landing" thing is a myth? How many non-Ryanair flights have you been on that you can compare? Just a question I suppose.

    Or maybe the 737-800 is harder to land than the other variants !!

  • That other video is "Very late go-around - Sofia Airport" - watch it!!

  • @mythicalireland actually that is the case i´ve been flying nearly every 737 variant in the past 20 years and the 800 in my opinion is a real bitch on landing..

  • flown with ryanair. 6 times. and each landing were worse then the other.

  • Great Video Anthony now I know what it was like from the outside. Happened me this year (09/03/09) coming back from Leeds/Bradford on a night flight into Dublin. Got the shock of my life.

    Cheers Gareth.

  • The problem for the passengers is that they're normally the last ones to be told what's going on, and many people draw their own conclusions as to what's happening . . . engine fire, dead pilot, computer problem, crash imminent, let's start praying . . . go-arounds happen often enough.

  • Was on exact same flight from Leeds - Bradford last night 13/9/09......landing in heavy fog and about 150ft from runway and the go around was executed.....pretty cool though!!....the pilot had the window of the cockpit open when we landed....he looked pretty shook......

  • lol i'd imagine he did wouldnt u :P

  • I hope MOL doesn't see this or he might bust the pilots balls for using up expensive fuel on a go-around.

  • Peoples comments on Ryanair are just hard to read sometimes,

    For the 'worst'(according to some here) airline' out there they sure have impressive numbers (both passenger and finance wise),

    I mean RYR apparently 'slam' their a/c down and the pilots are poorly trained yet they have never had a fatal accident,

    given their size thats quite an achievement, many more highly rated airlines cant boast such a good safety record

  • I flew with ryanair, in this flight!!!

    It was very scary!

  • That comes as a pre-loaded video on my K800i Sony Ericsson phone! LOL

  • i never flew wit ryanair but the livery is kool..

    damn itz all about dem 737'z anyway

  • Ryanair has the most modern fleet of any European airline in fairness to them. Their oldest 737s are a few years old !!

  • good judgement to take off again. :)

  • depend who flying mate i had one of best landing i ever had and i got on alot of planes cost me 5 pound from manchester to germany

  • allow ryanair, their ok, not some dick ass airline. their good and cheap.

  • RYANAiR GOT iSSUES!

  • No more than any other airline.

  • Ryanair have actually got a bit of a reputation throughout the airline industry for their 'interesting landings'. I remember a couple of years ago they had to discipline a pilot for landing too low at Dublin after householders complained.

  • It's inevitable that some people will say this is typical Ryanair, bad pilots, etc etc but in my experience Ryanair's pilots are as good as any.

  • then you probably had the best captain there is at ryanair John van Abkoude, a dutch captain.

  • yeah your fucking father

  • We had a dutch pilot for Edinburgh-Bournemouth.

  • Youtube annoys me. I work for RYR and explained this go around, yet people who don't know anything still debate it. Regarding the gear retraction, it may be a bit late, but I think that can be excused, I've never done a real go around, and while we brief it on every approach, once that TOGA is button, it takes a relaxed guy to get everything done right in a calm timely manner. Gear up is actually the first thing to be done, after pitching up, although engines at GA power take care of that. Caio

  • Sounds like a stupid question but can you remember the date you made the recording ????

  • I could be wrong but I probably uploaded this the day it happened.

  • No it was actually in October 2007 that it happened to us

  • Exactly the same thing happened to me at Dublin with Ryanair, it scared me to bits as we were as close to the runway as this plane is...

  • Well a go-around or missed approach is normally executed when, for some reason, landing would be deemed unsafe. This might be because a gust of wind has moved the plane off the centreline, or perhaps there is another aircraft or obstruction on the runway. It's surprisingly commonplace.

  • Go arounds are perfectly safe just unexpected by passengers of course. Trust me though, you were probably better off flying then having landed. As already said, a go around is preformed only when continuing the landing could be deemed as unsafe. RYR is not the only airline to do them you know. Makes me laugh, people thinking RYR are dangerous for doing a go around. RYR can't win. Imagine what people would say if we had a policy where we were never to do them and to land at any cost.....lmao

  • Completely agree. Think there's a lot of nonsense, especially in YouTube comments, about this type of thing. And then you read media reports about how planes had to take drastic action to avoid a collision on the runway etc. I've done a couple of go-arounds in the simulator, a few times because I was too high on short finals, and once because another plane was still on the runway.

  • I still fly with Ryanair, its just that when it happened it was a bit of a shock however I know several people who this has happened to on many other airlines.

  • The landing gear retraction is a little bit late, isn't it?

  • As long as it, is in operating limitations then they can retract them when they want! But I guess it is slightly late but very normal!

  • Pal, when they go-around at like 100 feet, I think they have abit more to do than just raise the landing gear.

  • Dont tell that to me tell it to Riccardino82 I know theve got much more important things to do !

  • No sorry, it was directed at riccardino82.

  • As I've said below, other then hitting TOGA and pitching up, the gear retraction is the next on the list. Gear retraction is very important dude. What happens if the go around is dude to engine failure? You really want the gear hanging out on a single engine go around? Rather you than me pal....If anyone wants the actual answers to any RYR vid's just let me know. If I don't know, I'll ask one of my Capt's. At least then you'll get an actual answer, rather then some youtube bull$shit....caio

  • Flap retraction???

    TOGA, pitch, flaps 15... only when positive rate of climb is achieved, GEAR UP!!!

    And Gear is not retracted during go-around procedures in windshear situations ...

    tks

  • Not really correct. Course we can retract outside the limits, but gear retraction is nearly the first thing we do on a go around. Imagine you're in IMC in Salzburg with 10000' mountains surrounding you, you wana climb outa there with gear down knowing that, "oh well as long as it's retracted before we acc to +250 knots (max speed for gear retraction) then we'll be ok!" The mountains may think something else...caio

  • Thats Ryanair for you, yeah well like that ollie guy and drivez they do need to do stuff but it seems well late.

  • which countries airlines is it?? i never heard of this airlines b4.

  • Ryanair is Irish but operates all around Europe.

  • ok thanks.

  • (*)

  • great, interesting video, 5*

  • Some of the comments on here are pure crap. Just because BA has a more of an image in aviation doesent mean the planes are flown better. Just because ryanair are a low cost carrier doesent mean the pilots will just drop the plane on the runway FFS! Every pilot will have a bad landing at some point.

  • Wbryce I can see you may work for Ryanair. However if you do, you would also know that once we get a "cleared to land" by the tower, the Capt turns on the retractable landing lights. In this film they are not on, so my guess would the tower told them to go around, rather then them being unstable. A small gust of wind like this is not sufficient for a go around, be it above or below 500' agl.

  • Spot on I think. Might have been an 'expect a late landing clearance' from the tower: a clearance which for some reason (e.g. previous aircraft not vacating quickly) never materialised hence the GA. No retractable landing lights on = no clearance received = go around.

  • WTF is 'retractable landing lights'? Stupid.

  • Retractable landing lights are the landing lights in a 737s belly. They fold away when switched off. They cannot be used above 250 knots, so they are not usually switched on until the aircraft has clearence to land.

  • The approach became unstable in the vertical profile, you can see the aircraft nose low trying to recapture. If this was on the shorter runway then a very sound decision indeed. Ryanairs SOP is a mandatory go-around below 500ft in those conditions (VMC) should the approach become destabilised.

  • you've never heard of Ryanair? One of boeings biggest customers, and an airline that is about to place a 500+ order....

  • that was for

    AdamJLemon .

  • That was for planeboy737 btw....

  • Roger that.

  • You know people who keep going on about Ryanair doing "bad landings" all the time sound really stupid. Unless your a pilot or someone who actually knows the science behind HOW an aircraft flies then please shut up. Planeboy737 for example. :)

  • Indeed. I'd like to see statistics about this issue. Two Ryanair pilots recently saved 180 lives by landing a 737-800 with no engine power after it flew into a flock of Starlings at Rome. So in my opinion they're great pilots.

  • Starlings? Those tiny little birds almost downed a 60 ton aircraft? This is why I avoid flying whenever possible.

  • You mean the Red Sparrows ?LOL

  • Well to let you know i am a pilot for British Airways and i Fly the Airbus Fleet to European Destinations From LHR. I have compared my landings to FR's Landings and My landings are much better even though i have only been working for ba since 2006! And Before That i worked for Flybe so i do know my stuff. Prove that you know too!

  • wow! Give yourself a pat on the back...you work for BA.

  • It depends who the target consumer is. BA are ok of you're a wealthy businessman flying long distance but for going on a holiday I'd rather go with FCA. The cabin crew seem friendlier than BA.

  • Hang on a sec this isnt shannon!!

  • if people dont like ryanair then fly with a different company like british airways. at least with ryanair you get what you pay for. a cheap flight that will get you to your destination

  • Yeah, i've been in plenty, rather annoying though, but as a pilot, I understand the need.

  • Exactly. Boeing have procedures that have to be followed aswel as Ryanair. Why risk something stupid when you can take 10 minutes and go around ? O'Leary won't mind paying..

  • Go-arounds are surprisingly common.

  • at least the pilot isnt risking the lives of the passengers he did the sensible thing and did a go around

  • Yes they would

  • Okayyyy...

  • That doesn't have to do with Ryanair. Many other airlines, such as Delta Airlines and KLM and Qantas and many other airlines use the 737-800. They probably would have done the same.

  • Go around costs money. Only if it´s strickly necessary.

  • every time i travel to dublin airport on ryanair (from Nottingham East Midlands) there is always terrible turbulence. Last time I went a girl threw up in the middle of the aisle and the plane dropped out of the sky for a second on approach.

    When I landed at Berlin Schonefeld, again on Ryanair, the plane almost skidded off the runway due to A, too much speed and a wet runway. Ryanair seem to fall off runways quite a bit. Maybe they don't use as much engine breaking on landing to save money?

  • Stop using Ryanair then if they cause you so much stress....

  • I don't know if that's true. Where are the statistics to back it up? ;)

  • some ryanair pilots are ex ba

  • This plane didn't even land, it done a GO AROUND, so where did you come to the conclusion that it done a bad landing?

  • Fuck off you little mug, go and comment on a video you know something about.
