This is an excellent video, really captures the essence of training.....looks like the captain took one second too many in setting those flaps for the go-around, this was why the capt leaned over correct?
It depends on the aircraft you fly.It's easy to understand that is not the same to fly a B737 than a cessna. Also see that is not the same the simulator than the real airplane, almost the same but not identical. It's just a law requirment ! I hope this reply could help you understand why we have to be checked on the real airplane.
why TAG practise? aren't heavies suppose to land once they touch down? anything unusual suppose to go around no? i thought TAG is meant for the fighter jets only, especially on the carrier deck.
Hi all.This is called base training.To obtain your licence you have to fly the aircraft at least 6 touch and go in the real aircraft.I am the one in the right seat. The left seat is occupied by the captain. In the center seat is the safety pilot,and in the rear left seat was one of my friends doing the base training in the other seat. The camera man was another pilot,he was not seated.He is at the door of the cockpit. He was not seated thats why the cameraman looks like drunk;)
Yes, tilting the video camera like that misleads the viewer, and is not a good idea when taking a video out of a cockpit. Any tilt is read by the viewer as a plane tilt, and scares the b*jeezus out of 'em. Also annoys them.
not high ! Just left of the centerline, check the papi on the right side of the runway ! two reds, two whites !

Sorry, I was wrong to make that comment. (But why does the camera tilt like that?)
Also, it didn't occur to me that Toritogarito might be the cameraman - I really didn't mean to cause offence!
It is a great video, and I'm grateful to Toritogarito for posting it. 5-star!
