HD - Rough Landing in Denver with the Lufthansa A340-600

[dominicbuxton1]

not very well filmed

[Dance2Trance22]

Where was this filmed at..I'm trying to get some good plane spotting spots lol

[gamestunts]

Waow he really planted it right on there.

Nice job keeping a reasonably steady hand when you were zoomed in there. :)

[rockymountainrandom]

What a quiet plane! Does British Airways operate the 747 in and out of Denver?

[fspilot1000]

@rockymountainrandom nope only the B777-300ER

[rockymountainrandom]

@fspilot1000 Ahh...that makes sense. Also a great airplane :) And Air France doesn't fly through Denver either so I guess the A340 is the only four engine plane there. Maybe DIA will someday see the 747-8 from Lufthansa - I really wanna see that masterpiece in action :)

[Dance2Trance22]

How is the spotting there in Denver? Is the security very tight there?

[recacon3]

That was a true aggression to Mother Earth!

[tigersfanatic98]

great video. very cool. can you please check out my channel?

and wow, that is one of the hardest landings ive ever seen

[dridley11]

My son love the tail cam in the 600. I love that you can get a day's exercise just from walking from business to the tail and back.

[ebakkal]

is it just me or was the pilot a bit overspeed....?

[kgboy72]

Spoilers don't come out until all 12 wheels have weight on them... :D

[thelopespilot]

amazingly rough, shit!

[TurboExpo1]

A346 looked hard to land, Is the very long distance from the landing gear make the pilot difficult to estimate the landing flare?

A346 is longest aircraft?

[johnuio]

@TurboExpo1 -- almost the longest.... the new 747-8 is almost one meter longer... and the An-225 is maybe 9 meters longer.. but the 600 is longer than the 747-400.

[DerStadtbus]

It's a rough but perfect landing!

The smoothiest landing isn't always the best one, the safietiest is.

You can hear it was a stormy day, so you touch down a bit harder - thats pretty normal..

[SenenGarciaLlanes]

OUCH!

[trevorskates94]

Where were you standing? I was think about going spotting.

[trevorskates94]

I saw today's A340 come in couple hours ago! BIG plane.

[Neno8403]

Try using a tripod next time. Couldn't even enjoy what could have been a 'great video' because of all the camera movement.

[1budgies]

was it possible to hold the camera still?

[journeyofman2000]

poor passengers lol

[Jrcarmello]

Omg! the A346 is toooooo loooooong

[FloridianAirsofters]

Airbus pilots seem to flare a lot more than boeing, a lot of A330 and A340 vids I see, the flare is almost 7.5 degrees, anyways, amazing vid

[michael4england]

i love the plane i love lufthansa best airlines ever im proud to be german

[mztthew]

u kno sad to say, ive never seen a vid or pic that show any lufthansa pilot putting those birds down gently, and they have such a nice fleet

[thermo1984]

Wow worth the watch thanks for the upload. DIA can be a rough ride when the wind picks up like that. Seems like that baby was running low on fumes and he needed it on the ground asap, still thats a rough one.

[staggaz32]

i thought only 747's had 4 engines?

[rcacad]

He flared a bit agressivly and pulled the tail down right into the ground.

[TheYozStudios]

what did u expect? its an airbus, there crap

[RCKTBOY7]

He PLANTED it!

[seaboo143]

OUCH!

[mauersegler79]

looks like a wind shear or downdraft shortly before touchdown....could be possible by the looks of the clouds you see in the sky....

[KWeatherson]

his vertical rate of decent was just too high.. not a matter of too fast of slow..

[747LufthansaPilot]

ne harte landung die der kolege dort gemacht hat^^

wow 3 mal das ich nen a340 in denver sah ( meistens schciken die 747-400 dorthin )

[nigelandbozena]

Can you do it again, I missed it.

[crapper1]

wonder if it wrinkled the skin on the plane being the -600 i wouldnt dubt it did something to the plane

[Alddahh]

wow you can hear the touchdown^^

[ARVIAON]

He went in too fast :P

[Pvjinflight]

No he didnt.

[Cessna1541]

very quiet aircraft

[MrE720]

Which runway was this? I tried to film at 16R/34L a while back in denver and didn't get much action!

[JIMAXair]

daaymm haha that was pretty hard i bet the pilot was like oh fuk!

[AreoCrayZ]

if u filmed this vid then u kick ass! nice dude!

[LufthansaFlightSim]

Yes! Filmed it myself! :-)

[garyleak]

@LufthansaFlightSim

nice job

[nwaairlinkazo]

anyone have a new set of tires handy....wow! after that landing id be filling my pants than burning rubber!

[Pro1331]

It's safer to land a bit harder than usual in windy conditions. It gives the turbulence less time to fuck you up.

[jordana8899]

@Pro1331 what are you a fake pilot or something? you don't know anything.

[Pro1331]

@jordana8899

Megalolz. Did I ever claim I was a pilot, you idiot ? If you don't know how to explain anything, then don't post, dip shit. It would be a reasonable start to your sorry life. Have a nice day.

[luckyowl249]

@Pro1331 I completely agree; due to the windy Denver conds. it was abs. correct to grip the runway harder!

[GlobeMasterLover]

@Pro1331 The reason why such a big a/c landed flying so fast is that DIA is at an higher elevation that any average airport, hence the need for a/c to use a longer runway and land at higher speed... I think DIA is at around 1500 if not 1800m asl...

[soccerflyer08]

Great LOVE IT!!

[Airforceproud95]

Beautiful aircraft, rough landing! Im flying out to Colorado springs beginning of june, with delta. Im so excited to be out there. one of my favorite places to go. Ive seen the lufthansa a340 taking off, its incredible. 5/5

[LufthansaFlightSim]

That is very cool!

Yes, the A340 is a very impressive aircraft!

[clarinetman1664]

ouch ! hard landing (but also windy)

Bye

[fernousdu972]

beautiful !

[thefsxflyer]

Got to love that A340. What time of day does that come in? 5?

[LufthansaFlightSim]

Yes it is a beautiful aircraft!

It is scheduled at about 4PM Rocky Mountain Time, but usually doesn't show up until a quarter after 4.

[thefsxflyer]

Cool. I need to find a time and go out to Denver and see it. 1 time I saw a Lufthy 747 fly over my house around 3:30

[LufthansaFlightSim]

Awesome! That must have been when LH operated the 747 to Frankfurt instead of the 340-600.

[thefsxflyer]

Ya, I think it was 3 years? maybe, maybe longer.

[LufthansaFlightSim]

Yup that would have been when! Glad you like the video.
