  • @Carlowgirl88 I agree with you, but for another reasons. Ryanair uses 737's, newly manufactured, but with an old design philosophy. Aer Lingus uses a320, a much more modern aircraft with fly by wire controls. I experience the same when flying SAS in their 737s and BA's a320s; the a320 lands smooth as butter, whereas the 737 is just more "technologically challenged". The 737s are also way louder in flight... but the a320s do the "courting meowing cat" noise when taxiing with their hydrolics.

  • good for ryanair standerds

  • Comment removed

  • look at all you muppets hating on a bad landing any landings a good one if u walk away and most of you and more then likely passengers thats right i 4got none of you even know how to fly a fucking plane so shut up and let the pilot fly and land whether its hard or not ur safe at ur destination

  • @BIGRILEY dont swear

  • @TheAnneMarsh hahah ? yes sir

  • @BIGRILEY and plus did this video say "Bad Landing" well no so why don't you go away and get a life as people have there opinion and personally i think it was hard.

  • Flew for the first time with Ryanair recently...both landings were smooth as you like...hardest one I've experienced was Easyjet 737-700 into Luton...there's a lot of operational situations that make a hard landing necessary/preferable and sometimes safer anyway...generally speaking anyway...this one is a particularly hard whack lol.

  • oh God! stop scaring the shit out of me! I am flying tomorrow from OPO to FMM for Oktoberfest. First time with Ryanair.

    If FR 4598 falls tomorrow thumbs up for my memory :(

    God I hate flying and have to fly once a week at least!!!

  • Ryanair Have a strict 'Positive Contact' policy, as do most budget airlines, to avoid the risk of go-arounds, costing the airline more money, nothing unusual-----maybe the pilot was hung over too? haha

  • 0:43 super constellation!

  • @derrinirl Iran air makes way better landings then Air lingus .. Just saying ..

  • @MrFarsan10 tuifly makes much better landings than iran air

  • thik i have the right theory as to why ryanair always land hard lmao...  they probably idle the throttle at about 1,000ft and stall it into the ground to save fuel costs.... lmfao

  • WOW!!!!

  • It's a 737. Don't worry!

  • RyanAir charges extra for smooth landings :P

  • is it me or does the wing seem very close to the ground?

  • @wifwat It's just you !

  • @IngazZagnin OK,sorry you are right,i can't judge based on one flight i had with Ryanair,but as i read these comments from other people and see that it's similar to my experience,i thought it's little weird that most of time they have a hard landings and people screaming,why is it usually by this company? i don't know but of course,sometimes you get hard and sometimes smooth landing by any airline and pilot.But i don't have anything against Ryanair.I would even love to fly with them again..

  • I flew with Ryanair for first time last summer, i thought ..ok, another new airline, it's gonna be interesting,and it did.When we landed,we landed so hard, one woman was screaming, and afterwords everybody applaud to the pilot (sorry for my bad grammar)....I've never seen that before,i usually always fly with Croatia airlines! And everything goes always so smooth, safe and professional.These Ryanair pilots aren't probably trained well,and didn't gain enough hours in a flight simulator

  • @KikyCRO Hello again. I would argue that you can't judge an entire airline based on one flight. You were 1 out of around 1500 flights everyday! As for the training, industry regulations mean that pilots receive about the same amount of training no matter what airline they fly for.

  • I guess nobody payed the for the good landing package

  • Wtf are you talking about, I'm always flying with ryanair and never had any problems, all landings are very smooth and soft, always on time (ALWAYS), this airlines NEVER had any accident. Cheap and gets you to your destination, that's all you need. I mean, why paying €500 with some super fancy 3 hour flight if you can spend €30 :)

  • @majnus: Get your intel right mate. Ryanair have had at least one incident.

  • Can't get the link to work, but search for Ryanair incident. One of the airplanes overshoot the runway. Nobody got hurt, but I know someone who was on that plane and has fair of flight ever since.

  • @opperdave exactly, one incident, nobody was hurt, nothing major. 

  • ryan air will have a serious accident one day

  • Due to the length of the runway, he had to get it down!

  • I have had one hard landing in 30 odd flights, it was my First ride in a 747, Due to a 25 hour delay we ended up on a 747, i was so exited, as i have always loved flying and always dreamed of being a pilot, you never usually get 747's at cardiff airport due to it being a small airport,. so that was awesome to start with, But the landing, in Crete, was so hard, we bounced 3 times, and all the Masks fell down, and the overhead door things all flew open, the pilot had no time to flare perfectly

  • RYANAIR SUCKS..

  • I honestly cannot stand the airline...

  • Bumpy landing XD

  • Well, now u have to pay for good landigs!

  • lol with ryan air is normal hard landing :D

  • lol one time i was flying back to dublin i think and when we landed i could have sworn a bomb went off the landing was so hard and loud.

  • fack me, how low are the flaps to the ground? or is this normal?

  • @hiphopuithethart Yeah that's fine it's on the max flap setting which is 40 degrees on the 738 ;)

  • I would love to go for a ride in that Connie seen at 43 seconds. That would be a dream come true.

  • The ground switch is located in the right gear only, so apparently the drivers try to get left gear down first then the right.....or just slam the thing hard into the ground! You can see why ryanair get through many tyres!!

  • Ryan air pilots don't get paid enough and hav no beautifull steward chicks so why should they make a soft landing for those greedy passengers...

  • Comment removed

  • aerlingus has the best

  • my favs austrian arrows Lufthansa KLM Quantas

    and LOT IS SHITIEST

  • Is it me or do the flaps look unusually close to the ground?

  • @jbcd1211 Yeah i thought that to but i think its just some strange view to the shadows

  • Aer Lingus was the cheapest to go to USA from France last year so we took it. I expected a quite bad company... not at all ! very clean and apparently new planes, with movie etc... (better than the plane I took with Air France), very nice flights and landings I agree.

  • all i heard was FOCHEN ELL

  • Any landing is a good landing if they can control the bleeding with direct pressure.

  • Was it windy that day? Was there crosswinds? Wind sheers? We don't know really, if there was it would explain the hard landing, the pilot would have to apply more speed for such landings therefore the possibility of a hard landing. 737-800's are one of THE most safest planes. The pilot might have hit a wind sheer just as the plane was landing. If that was the case, the pilot did a great job.

  • Any landing is a good landing as long as you can touch down on the runway and walk away, even if the plane is bursting with flames.

  • Not the pilots fault. All ryanairs planes are all faulty!!!!

  • @TKproductionsTK best comment on this vid :) all ryan air planes are bull****

  • the pilot just got his first ryanair wage packet. it was the shock of seeing how piss poor the salary is, he just let go of everything & said fuck 'em

  • Usually get a hard landing with Ryanair. But there was one landing recently that scared the shit out of me. I wasn't the only one as there were women screaming and children crying. The plane hit the ground so hard it was like the pilot was trying to dig a tunnel under the runway. Whenever I fly with Aer Lingus you hardly feel the plane touch the ground when it lands.

  • @derrinirl I agree with you. Fly with Ryanair... the plane is slammed into the ground when landing. Fly with Aer Lingus... perfect landing every time.

  • @carlowgirl88 Thats Airbus for you against a boeing!

  • @carlowgirl88 Maybe it's where you're landing. Certain regions have generally worse weather conditions. There are many factors to consider.

  • @carlowgirl88 i flew thomas cook ,first choice, condor, jet2.com. jet2 holidays and ifly airlines and the landings

    were smooth on all of them

  • @carlowgirl88 no fun with lingus I love ryanair :)

  • @derrinirl Thats how I feel about United Airlines, the landings are always so perfect! I will always fly United, I hear Southwest pilots slam the planes down hard too. I realize that sometimes it cant be helped but damn seem like RyanAir is always having horrible landings!

  • @derrinirl Agree with ya there, on a Ryanair flight from Dublin to Bristol, the pilot near buried the plane into the runway, Best landing i ever experianced was on an American Airlines flight from Dublin to Chicago, after a very turbulant decent i was expecting a bumpy landing, but the first officer who landed the Boeing 767-300ER kissed the ground so gentle there was no bump, 100% perfect landing.

  • @derrinirl it has nothing to do with the airline

  • @derrinirl Ryanair are a great budget airline and don't have bad landings.. that was a once off what happened to you

  • @derrinirl I flew twice with Ryanair (it means 4 flights) and I barely felt the touchdown in all of them!

    We can't just conclude that Ryanair has bad or good landings...

  • @shirazrazi97 For your information, I've been flying regulary for nearly 12 years and have had a hard landing on every Boeing aircraft. Never had a hard landing on an Airbus aircraft though. You can't argue with 12 years of flying experience.

  • @derrinirl i just found a ryanair smooth landing,type in ryanair 737 landing at stansted smooth as butter

  • @derrinirl ryanair dosent always do hard landings, there has been some smooth landings from ryanair

  • there was some one from Liverpool who said FUCKIN HELL

  • Just count yourself lucky that you weren't charged for the 'extra excitement'. Money grubbing airline.

  • that took a lot of runway!

  • Typical Ryanair landing. There was nothing rough about it, just a slight bump. Besides, you all walked away and the a/c wasn't damaged, so thats a good landing in my book

  • I was told once the bump was done on purpose to dislodge any remaining Ice that may have formed at altitude! lol A landing is a continuous glide path. If you increase thrust to slow you decent as you near the runway to 'smooth' out the landing you are spending more time in the 'tipping zone' where your wing tips are near enough to the ground for a sudden cross wind to turn your wing tip into a grass cutter or tarmac plough. The has to be a determind and steady momementum downwards.

  • thats why u dont fly with ryanair.........

  • to the idiot who posted this..you landed safe you dickhead,,

  • all ryanair pilots are noobs. they allways land hard. i fly with ryanair to london

    2of2 hard landings man. they aren´t good pilots

  • @eren23588 u r damn right

  • @eren23588 but yet your still alive to tell your tale. maybe you should ask to fly the plane the next time im sure it would be such a smooth landing :)

  • nice landing dont know where it s hard retard

  • @SkyWestCRJPilot wow cant wait loL!!!

  • @MrPedoShine To get a job at most airlines you need to have a 4 year degree. It can be in anything. You can go to what ever college you want to. It doesn't have to be an aviation college either. You really need a 4 year degree from a college(it doesn't have to be in aviation), your licenses, ratings, and experience. You can go to school for computer stuff too. It's a good idea to have a backup plan, because it' s a very competitive industry, and you may not get a job, but go for it!

  • @cjracer1000 THANKS ALOT FOR THE HELP DUDE!!!!!!!! I was just giving up hope lol!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

  • @MrPedoShine Never give up hope dude! OH, you're in Turkey! I don't know exactly how it works over there. It should be quite similar, but you should do some more research! I subbed to you by the way. Also, you should start flying ASAP.

  • @cjracer1000 yeah its similar I think! being a pilot would be the BEST job ever !

  • @MrPedoShine To me it's by far the best job!

  • @cjracer1000 hell yeah I agree :)

  • @SkyWestCRJPilot awesome!! omg I sooo wanna become a pilot its just that :S Im studing computer tech stuff. Hope I still can go to a pilot university

  • @SkyWestCRJPilot hmm really?? I thought you needed ALOT of education to become a pilot :P 

  • @SkyWestCRJPilot wow that must be really iritating. BTw must be really bad ass to fly planes :)))) you have the best job ever!!!

  • @SkyWestCRJPilot lmao some retarded woman said all that on one of your flights :P ?

  • @SkyWestCRJPilot hell yeah I agree. I hate it when ppl talk about shit they dont know a fucking shit about.... Like woman talking about planes...

  • i loved the bounce :D haha

  • only a little bounce

  • Little bit of a bounce. Just letting the cabin know that they've arrived. lol

  • nice:_)

  • big deal. nothing wrong with that landing.

  • he didnt even flare, just Plonked down :P

  • Smoother than most landings I've experienced on "Fly 'N Scare"

  • You made it to the ground without dying. The two guys up front did a cracking job and until your qualifications equal theirs, shut up!

  • wtf hes going really fast at final :O

  • I think Ryanair might have started charging passengers who want softer landings too.

  • it is not hard

  • that wasnt a "fucking hell" landing 2 be fair

  • u think the pilot ever heard about FLARE the damn aircraft before touchdown?

  • It is Ryanair....you have to pay extra for a soft landing.

  • The 738 is a notoriously difficult plane to land. They are a lot longer than the smaller 737s and the landing profile needs to be flown pretty flat. Also, they have a much firmer landing gear which is very unforgiving. They can also float unexpectedly over the runway (particularly when they have winglets), then come down hard. Many pilots find it a very frustrating plane to land.

  • well it happened to me . many times actually - i guess i only had 2 flights with 1 jump ... as for me landing is always the worst =_=

  • That plane was probably at the upper limits of final approach speed

  • As @fsxjb just said...here in my country we have this popular saying: "The good landing is that one you can walk away from and the great landing is that you can use the plane again".

  • hard landing? lol i dont think so

  • 0:44 ... super constellation??

  • it just bothers me when people evaluate a pilot based on their landing. Nevermind that they did everything else perfectly, but the landing was pretty hard so this must be a shit pilot....People need to wake up and realize that if you walk on and off that plane, then the flight crew did their job.

  • +1, thank you.

  • @ 144flyer01 true that ... you are absolutely right. and the landing was not even that hard! these fools don't realize wind direction plays a significant part in how hard or soft the plane lands... and the pilot has no control over the direction of the wind!

  • Agreed.

    Sometimes it's safer to just stick the landing. A good pilot will choose safety over what the passengers think of them.

    When it's windy get the wheels on the ground so you can control your plane.

  • @144flyer01:

    Actually, that's a rather silly view to have (i.e. don't castigate pilots when fuck up the landing).

    Consider for a moment that most of the flight is conducted under automatics, LNAV and/or VNAV is engaged sometimes with as little as 400" underneath the aircraft after it takes off (effectively, sometimes in as little as minute's time after the TO roll is commenced) and the AP's are usually only disengaged with, again, as little as 400" to go before landing.

  • @144flyer01:

    Following on from my previous comment...

    Before the landing takes place, the Autopilot (AP) has set in place the correct attitude, velocity and tracking for the aircraft such that it's centred on the middle of the runway, wind drift included. Basically, all the Pilot Flying has to do is maintain heading, speed and direction for a very short period of time AFTER he disengages the AP and Autothrust (AT). Keeping a steady hand and flaring is all that's really needed!

  • @144flyer01:

    Evidently this pilot didn't know when to flare and fucked things up. As far as I can tell, there wasn't any windshear or violent disruption which could've affected his concentration or performance?

    Incidentally, all RYR CVR's and FDR's are set to upload performance/flight data within minutes of every landing so this hard landing (if it was deemed such by the engineers who would've inspected the aircraft afterwards) would've been reported quite quickly.

    Unlucky, fella!

  • @FlyboyFryer Everybody's entitled to their opinion. I will be honest and admit that I possess little experience, certifications, and/or ratings compared to this airline captain. It is for this reason that I restrain from insulting this professional's landing. Keep in mind that most pilots dont criticize others' landings out of respect for the profession. I hope that you possess adequate ratings etc. before you start critiquing this captain.

  • @144flyer01:

    No worries; I just hoped I helped increase your understanding of flight procedures in a typical transport jet aircraft used by a commercial airliner. Also, you're correct in assuming that I'm experienced enough to be making these judgements - I have what they call a frozen Airline Transport Pilot Licence which includes a Commercial Licence, Multi Engine and Instrument Ratings.

  • @FlyboyFryer twat

  • @144flyer01

    I agree. No two landings are the same, everything comes into play on a landing, Wind, airport elevation, temperature, humidity, aircraft weight, fuel.

    Another thing to remember. Landings are mandatory, no matter how they are done :p

  • @144flyer01 well the rest of the things you should do mate is put auto pilot for alt and speed and direction. so preety much ye... its the take off and landing

  • Comment removed

  • oh shut up

  • lol init

  • Oh wow.

  • 2 Bounces!

  • any landing you can walk away from is a good one.

  • Comment removed

  • @pete5668 And a great one is when you can reuse the aircraft!

  • Ryanair's style !

  • they should fucking jail them pilots are not pilots

  • believe it or not, that was the aircraft that was landing itself - Cat II Autoland Procedure gives a considerably harder landing than under pilot-control... the pilot wa probably just demonstrating the Autoland capacities of the aircraft.

  • Comment removed

  • @ChrisMiller1994 too bad there is no CAT II Autoland. You've kind of just told everyone how full of shit you are. It was probably just a bad landing... Nice try though.

  • of course i was talking bullshit.... tosser, you're an even bigger one for disecting my statement... i just meant Autoland in general... none of yer shite

  • No - You were trying to convince people you knew what was going on and while doing so you were proven wrong and got all defensive... I'm sure me telling you your full of shit makes me.... Again... Nice try.. I'd rather not see you pollute peoples minds with your nonsense.

  • YES MR FSX PILOT

  • for you're intelligent input, i thank you, i don't posess fsx, i am a PPL holder in the UK, and yes, for you haters, you can hold a ppl before the age of 17 as long as you don't fly solo before at least six months before you're 17th birthday. autoland is a common airplane feature that is quite commonly known amongst non-flying types. so go fuck yourself over someone else. cunt.

  • Got to love a bouncer! Straight out of the PPL Students experience book haha.

    One more and i'd go-around! Once oscillation starts, its an issue!

  • I wouldn't get on a Ryanair flight if you paid me and I avoid most airlines/planes as best I can

  • Nice landing

  • Ryanair pilots MUST comply with JAA standards regarding fuel reserves.

  • because your a better pilot ya?

  • Did you know that Ryanair restricts their pilots to fuel with basically no reserves? Was told by a real pilot. Don't want to be an emergency situation with them.

    Seems like the pilots were running out of fuel on this landing xD

  • well i find that hard to beleive i think you mean something like extra fuel the captain can put on. you must have 10% contingency of your route fuel and 30 mins extra for holding so you do have quite a bit of fuel! also depending on where you go and if alternate airports are further away you have to put on extra fuel. Airlines have to to take all that into account including ryanair so i wouldnt worry about running out of fuel! ;) :P

  • It seems like he was going to fast!

  • He didnt do it very gradually, just planted right down. lol

  • reduce speed please...don't worry for ship stalling...

  • very fast touch-down

  • lol - "F***ing hell that was s***"

  • TOO FAST

  • Can you see the airspeed indicator or somethin?

  • Landingen kan ha vært så hard, fordi noen ikke respekterte at det ikke er tillatt å ha på elektroniskutstyr under takeoff/landing som f.eks videokamera :-)

  • Hope nobody had their tongue in between their teeth at the point of touchdown!

  • I flew on a Delta Airlines 737-800 from Cincinatti - San Francisco and the pilot hopped the plane just like in this video, it was cool.

  • would I be able to talk to a pilot? doesnt matter what type ratings he has, just want to ask a quick question. thanks in advance

  • Ahh, the pilot flared too much and send the aircraft back up. Spoilers forced the aircraft back down.

  • Im a pilot on the B777-200ER

    Not the 737-800, though sorry!

  • any landing you can walk away from is a good one

  • @fsxjb nicely said:D

  • Madagascar :L

  • @fsxjb When did our expectations on pilots get so low? :P

  • @fsxjb i have the same opinion

  • @fsxjb AMEN!

  • Just wondering how many people here are commercial airline pilots, 737-800 type rated? None I imagine. If any of you were you would find that Boeing recommend a p
