Very nice video. Btw the aircraft landed at the touch down spot but due to a 1.3second delay in the video feedback it looks like as if the aircraft had landed at the threshold.
Bumpy landings are manufacture default and not a human error..
It's pretty simple guys, the spoilers are 'armed' to come up as soon as pressure is put on the main landing gear, so you can clearly see the delay between the touchdown shake of the camera and the rising of the spoilers, which is at least 3-5 seconds after the shake. THAT is when they actually touched down on the video.
IRS not actually a short landing, there's a few seconds delay from the tail camera to the IFE screen, the nose camera has no delay. No idea why, but I noticed it last time I flew on it. There is no way the crew would have continued the approach if they were that low. Unstable, go around. If not they would have an interview with the chief pilot with no tea and biscuits!
This is what happens when the pilots use and abuse of the autoland!!!! Please PIC where is the old and sure manual handfly and and the large and soft touchdownd???
@Arkham1888 Autolanding are necessary to maintain CATIII certification. The crew must preform a certain number of autolands to maintain currency, in addition, the aircraft itself must also preform several autolands a month to maintain currency. It's usually most pilots preference to land manually I would say, but sometimes its not up to us!
Also, nowhere in the Airbus (or Boeing) flight manual does it say to land soft. A firm landing in the touchdown zone is always safer then landing long!!!
Definitely a short landing. Typically the touchdown zone is more or less where the PAPI lights are (the set of 4 lights on one side -in this case both- of the runway). The displaced threshold is not supposed to be used for landing. The main landing gear barely made it to the beginning of the runway. So it was definitely a short landing.
I wonder what they say on the speakers. Curious if it was the captain explaining or just the steward welcoming the passengers to their destination.
just did this flight yesterday best flight ever....the plane was empty and they were going around asking people if they wanted more food and walking the aisles giving out drinks .......most efficient cabin crew to date and the sexiest flight attendant ive ever seen !!!!!!
Emirate has the worst service ever! If you fly coach and if you are an Indian flying from NYC to Dubai, you probably are in for some Narcissistic treatment.
DON'T FLY EMIRATES unless you are white. They treat Indians and Black people very badly.
I flew on their new A380 thrice now but the staff were the worst of any airlines I have ever been. I didn't have any issues with the ambiance or food.
I can clearly see the green runway end lines, and the trailing edge of the wings are just over it. That means he just dropped on the edge. I think he's a bit low. As far I know he should be approaching for the touch down zone marks or a little beyond that. Man, I don't know what to say... bus pilots or bush pilots. Anyway, a good landing is always something you can walk away from
The plane appears to land on the East-west runway, not the longer north-south runways. this may have something to do with the low approach and early touchdown.
I'm guessing this is a runway 16R landing, if you look on google maps at Kingsford Smith you will see there is a piece of concrete before the piano keys with one arrow on it, this is where the first turn on to the runway is, that's where I think you landed, very early! Nice video.
50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, PULL UP! Bang! Ek 403, you were NOT cleared to land on Qantas drive. Please use the runway next time. I will now switch you over to ground control.......LOL
it happened to me once but with a Boeing 773ER , it landed at the begging of the runway ( 12L @ OMDB ) with Full barking & a full revers thrust then the pilot took the first taxi exit ... Can't wonder why ... =)
someone was not sure if u landed that's what i heard them asking after landing, so i think u have to be more smart and post it as a perfect landing next time. . . Emirates u r the best, keep discovering
This was not a good landing - the aircraft touched down at a point where it should have been 30 feet or so in the air. Also there didn't appear to be any attempt to flare the aicraft to cushion the landing - something understandable if the runway is short but not here where you can see how much runway is still left when the plane comes to a stop!
I don't really see how you can possibly make an assessment of a landing on the strength of this, the view from the vtp camera gives very little indication of attitude at the best of times, not to mention in the dark. It's very difficult to judge whereabouts the main gear touches from this angle, especially with the A380's tall fuselage. As for the hard landing, that's a common A380 thing it seems!
Wow, I have to admit that was short, and I believe the gear touched the runway before the threshhold? Because at 2:20 you can see the threshhold infront of the aircraft and then you touch down. I could be wrong.
It lands on the piano keys, not the 500 or 1000 ft markers. no pitch up either. its bad landing. if this were a qantas flight, it would be headline crap these days
There might be a delay in that video feed, I wouldn't know as I have never been on the a380. The spoilers did extend well before the 1000ft markers through which suggests they landed it near the piano keys. Dodgy landing? For an a380, yeah.
Well, I fly the A380...and that was most definitely well short of where it should have been. But, I think it was on the runway. Barely though. Have to look next time I'm on that runway. There is no delay in the video feed, as the reason it's there is not to give passengers a good view, but rather to help the pilots whilst taxying.
With large aircraft like the 747/a380, you just DONT do that, its bad airmanship. You arent paid to be chuck, you're paid to be safe and follow procedure, landing short intentionally in these machines is just bad practice. period.
There is no delay in the video, I have flown on Emirates, it is a straight TV feed.
If you look at other videos of the A380 landing, you can see there is a 5 second gap between touchdown and FULL extension of the spoilers.
This aircraft touched down about 300 metres short of where it should have.
A380/B747's pilots aim 1500 feet in from the threshold which means the wheels should touch down around 1100 feet in. I currently fly the A330, which has the same spolier delay.
Sydney has a landing threshorl of 230 metres . On the video you can already see the green thresholt lights passing the rear end of the wing. Since the airplane is still doing 250kph it is well within the runway. Also the overruns at Sydney are light grey concrete and not black. Are you mistaken with that?
appearantly you never saw a runway before. The stripes you see are the next markers and NOT the piano keys. Also the keya are NOT a marker of the end of the runway. Nothing wrong here.
Yes, but the picture on the screen has a delay of 3-4 seconds. So, when you hear the bang of the landing, the plane is actually some meters farther than it appears on the screen.
Look at the spoilers. They normally come up about a half second after touch down. On your video you can see them coming up some seconds after the bang. That's the delay in the onboard video.
@chaddles21 Guys I think the camera was delayed, because if it's not, he indeed touched down in the thresh hold, which is not allowed. I hope it's delayed, because that was not a great landing.
@peterterlouw I'm with Chaddles, the order of the runway is green threshold lights, piano keys, number, and then touchdown markers. Perfect touchdown would have main gear making first contact just *after* the numbers. Since the wings are pretty much over the piano keys (immediately in front of the threshold lights), its abundantly clear that the touchdown was earlier than normal ie. the aircraft was probably lower than usual. Look closely, the lines are narrow and closely spaced = keys
@peterterlouw nothing wrong except it was landing @ 500-700 fpm :D after landing like that, I will be searching for my kidneys :D + landing without flare and almost at treshold... :D
This is EXACTLY why these camera systems and cockpit audio monitors should be disabled. No one needs self-professed aviation experts monday morning quarterbacking their landing. Give me a break!
Oh BS, someone says its a hard landing and you are getting bent out of shape saying these things should be disabled? Yes, ruin the fun for the rest of us...
this WAS a very dangerous landing.. maybe not to hard (harder is safer) but way to early.. why do u think it is a rule to touch down as near as possible at the 1000 feet marker? he settled down even BEFORE the piano keys.. even they dont mark the complete end of the runway THIS time
chaddles21, I don't understand the reason for your ridiculously amateurish accusations. I hope you know that the main gear is under the wings, so obviously a perfect landing.
I also don't think that this was really a hard landing. There a myny reasons for aircraft to make a "harder" landing.
rodelaax, I do not profess to be an aviation expert. I am simply posting something on youtube that I thought may be of interest to some people. I have landed at Sydney Airport many times and have never landed this short or hard, so I don't agree that this was a "perfect landing". I do agree that the plane landed and no one was hurt which is the most important thing. I am simply making an observation of my landing experience, which I thought was a bit hard and short.
I do agree with chaddles...as a professional pilot myself i can tell you now that a landing such as that one had a very rough impact and the pilot stopped the aircraft extremely hard and after watching the video a second time i do not believe that the hard landing or full brake was necessary as they had plenty of runway left for the landing.
@coloradobigdawg how do you know they were applying full brake? if your a pilot you should know that a hard landing can be safer than a soft landings depending on the circumstances, and by this video we know nothing of what was actually going on in the cockpit to the situation. Sorry, what do you fly mr Pro pilot?
@chaddles21 Theres no such thing as a perfect landing, only safe landings, and the softness of the landing sometimes has nothing to do with how good or bad the landing was.
@rodelaax, It sounds to me rodelaax that you either don't know anything about flying jets, or you work for Emirates PR......it does seem Emirates like using up all their runway - Melbourne RW16 A340-500 take-off accident.......then there was also Jo'Berg.......
@surfmaster2000 I would say that you are the one without any knowing about aviation.
1. What do have other incidents, including one with another aircraft type have to do with the A380?
2. The landing of this aircraft was pretty ok. The video by the camera in the tail always has a delay of some seconds. So, again for the less smarter readers, the vid shows a picture which happened about 6-7 seconds before.
3. This aircraft leaves the runway far away from the end.
@rodelaax you better talk in an appropriate way and stop talking shit with ppl , at the end of the day we must be thankful for him sharing this video with us so that we can all watch it and u are not forced to watch it.
@Featherlake Again, beside the fact that the piano keys are the right landing point, this aircraft touches down some metres after the point this vdeo shows because the inboard videos have a delay of some seconds!
It touches down, while it is still on air, on the video. Again, because of the delay.
@rodelaax is correct. The video has a lag. You can actually see the point of touch down when the spoilers deploy on the wings (automatic with weight on wheels) as opposed to when the camera shakes. It is a completely normal landing way past the runway threshold.
@nsabardin Yep, thank you, some armchair pilots here want to discredit a real Pilot (a professional!) on the basis of a video of a video. You guys are ridiculous. ROTFL
BTW, some here discredit him alone because this is an Arab airline. I smell also some racism here. And BTW, Emirates employees pilots from all over the world. Perhaps he's an European or American!
First off ther is no time delay in the video second off that was a good landing nothing wrong with it, no hurt no damge no nothing! Now leave this landing alone!!
I hope all of you know there's a 3-4 second delay on this video. The plane touched down exactly where it should've, just a bit harder than people like.
What do you mean? The plane still touches down right on or just before the threshold... if this were an examination, whoever was doing the landing would have failed.
Ackbars, I pointed out that your explanation of the landing was wrong, and that you are not qualified to judge whether a pilot should fail a checkride.
BUT, hard landings are safe landings

I do agree that the plane landed and no one was hurt which is the most important thing. I am simply making an observation of my landing experience, which I thought was a bit hard and short.

I do agree with chaddles...as a professional pilot myself i can tell you now that a landing such as that one had a very rough impact and the pilot stopped the aircraft extremely hard and after watching the video a second time i do not believe that the hard landing or full brake was necessary as they had plenty of runway left for the landing.

i agree that was not a smooth landind and not even short..

@coloradobigdawg how do you know they were applying full brake? if your a pilot you should know that a hard landing can be safer than a soft landings depending on the circumstances, and by this video we know nothing of what was actually going on in the cockpit to the situation. Sorry, what do you fly mr Pro pilot?

@chaddles21 Theres no such thing as a perfect landing, only safe landings, and the softness of the landing sometimes has nothing to do with how good or bad the landing was.

@rodelaax, It sounds to me rodelaax that you either don't know anything about flying jets, or you work for Emirates PR......it does seem Emirates like using up all their runway - Melbourne RW16 A340-500 take-off accident.......then there was also Jo'Berg.......

@surfmaster2000 I would say that you are the one without any knowing about aviation.
1. What do have other incidents, including one with another aircraft type have to do with the A380?
2. The landing of this aircraft was pretty ok. The video by the camera in the tail always has a delay of some seconds. So, again for the less smarter readers, the vid shows a picture which happened about 6-7 seconds before.
3. This aircraft leaves the runway far away from the end.

@rodelaax you better talk in an appropriate way and stop talking shit with ppl , at the end of the day we must be thankful for him sharing this video with us so that we can all watch it and u are not forced to watch it.

@rodelaax aircraft lands exactly on the piano keys which is short, the normal landing area should be 100-200 feet after the piano keys.
Featherlake 1 year ago
@Featherlake Again, beside the fact that the piano keys are the right landing point, this aircraft touches down some metres after the point this vdeo shows because the inboard videos have a delay of some seconds!
It touches down, while it is still on air, on the video. Again, because of the delay.
rodelaax 1 year ago
@rodelaax is correct. The video has a lag. You can actually see the point of touch down when the spoilers deploy on the wings (automatic with weight on wheels) as opposed to when the camera shakes. It is a completely normal landing way past the runway threshold.

@nsabardin Yep, thank you, some armchair pilots here want to discredit a real Pilot (a professional!) on the basis of a video of a video. You guys are ridiculous. ROTFL
BTW, some here discredit him alone because this is an Arab airline. I smell also some racism here. And BTW, Emirates employees pilots from all over the world. Perhaps he's an European or American!

Well, that could be hydroulics pumping fluid around, or engaging spoilers.

Tthat was a very rough landing! I almost jumped up from my seat watching the video. I can't imagine how are you feeling right inside the plane.

Wow, that thing's like landing a cruise ship!! Or a battleship..
andrewi95 2 years ago
The fixed distance markers are 1000 feet from the threshold. As I said, the pilot did touch down early, but it was in no way unsafe.
rotcmaverick 2 years ago
First off ther is no time delay in the video second off that was a good landing nothing wrong with it, no hurt no damge no nothing! Now leave this landing alone!!

djdream5 2 years ago
I hope all of you know there's a 3-4 second delay on this video. The plane touched down exactly where it should've, just a bit harder than people like.
rotcmaverick 2 years ago
What do you mean? The plane still touches down right on or just before the threshold... if this were an examination, whoever was doing the landing would have failed.
AckbarsFist 2 years ago
Um... no. The plane touched down about 600 feet from the threshold.
Like I said, the video screen that was being recorded had a delay on it.
And I doubt an 18 year old is in any way qualified to rate an A380 pilot's landing skills.
rotcmaverick 2 years ago
Wow thanks for that. Constructive of you.
AckbarsFist 2 years ago
Ackbars, I pointed out that your explanation of the landing was wrong, and that you are not qualified to judge whether a pilot should fail a checkride.
How that's not constructive is beyond me.
