  • This Pilot need a Raise and a Trophy

  • why "mind-blowing".. it's a very standard x-wind landing and not that impressive of one actually - i'm more than qualified by the way - in that type as well - 

  • SNAP

  • thats the reason why i wanna be a pilot when i get older....

  • How does the pilot get the plane to fly sideways? Is it all rudder?

  • Not really mindblowing. Just a crosswind. I fly much better in a simulator, with virtual passengers.

  • @MichiganPolice yeah..thats exactly the same..q-.-p

  • I would say it was a rather hard landing, little crab, little flare, right of the centerline but I am having a REAL HARD TIME trying to understand how this landing could be mind blowing...

  • @flchange you are correct on all counts - except that he winds up over crabbing and landing on the left of the centerline.. not a very impressive routine crosswind landing from the standpoint of someone who does this on a daily basis for a living..

  • @altazboy I didn´t actually remember I had posted that comment LOL, but I still agree with it. I am sure the guy has had and will have better landings. It's pretty common for pilots that fly these type of machines to be overrealiant on RA advisories (50, 40, 30) and disregard the basics on how to land a plane. Fly an in trim approach, light, relaxed control wheel applications, Look outside, focus your eyes to the middle of the far end of the rwy, and be aware of pitch down moments during flare.

  • wow

  • That must be one of those new planes with variable dihedral wing shape.

  • This is called "crosswind landing"

  • Normal landing. Unless you live in a small town where you ONLY experienced seeing only Cesna models landing.

  • Thumbs up from me, I know pilots will be saying big deal it's just a crosswind landing but to us normal people flying in the back of the things it's very impressive and shows why pilots sitting in the front of planes are still held in high regard from the general public, super stuff!

  • "now arriving sideways at runway 27..."

  • that's an easy situation.. he adjusts it with the rudder

  • @SirMarcGermani easy to talk about, another thing to actually perform it well

  • @cmuska51 give me the plane and the amount of trainer & flight hours that pilot had and i'll do it

  • @SirMarcGermani heh exactly

  • damn

  • Ladies and Gentlemen if you look to the right you will see the runway...

  • @crazyrussian4 : LOL

    

  • Please edit this title to: normal landing.

  • this is why i'm a pilot

  • @gaggotgaggot Verbal attacks for no apparent reason is a result of your emotional insecurity and or a pubescent child incapable of controlling your hormone changes, due to processed foods. You have proven to the world that it is you that is the SAD SAD little F%ucker. Time to grow up or please exit this reality. You have the ability to be a good person, try it for a change.

  • @gaggotgaggot chill you inconsiderate dick head

  • To follow a heading in a cross wind, it is not uncommon to yaw the aircraft in such a manner. Nice landing.

  • R.E.S.P.E.C.T

  • he was not able to see the runway and same happened to me when landing 727 in fsx. It is a tough situation and we have to rely on our fate.

  • Text book crosswind landing. Nothing mind blowing about it. The other method is to get one wheel down first. Everybody thinks those are bad landings. There not, it's proper technique.If they didn't do it either one of these ways they would drift off of the runway.

  • SIA!

  • wow, a plane landing. You know that 2 brothers invented that 105 years ago?

  • he must have stepped on the rudder pedal real hard....

  • that's some nasty weather in Zurich...Is it always like tht or wht ? I mean don't u guys have sunny days ?

  • that's some sweet cross wind action!  nice round out at the end too

  • Singapore Airlines?

  • That was a hard landing!

  • Re: the description

    I don't think the aircraft "re-aligns itself", I think a pilot is doing that.

  • @00bean00 exactly you can easily see the rudder kicking to the right.

  • It fell just like a brick :))

  • I think the pilot was sleepy :D D

  • STUPID VIDEO

  • @nesher1000 Why is this video stupid??

  • "and out of the right side of the passenger cabin, you can see the end of the runway, which you shouldn't be seeing unless you're in the cockpit."

    Great job on landing that beast. Good video. Thumbs up.

  • I had that once landing on Rotterdam in a FOkker 50. NOT FUN. I could look down the runway, looking out my seat window. It all seemed to get better when closer to the ground. More lift and slower wind there, right?

  • 0:28 - 0:35 Is it me or is the plane flapping its wings?

  • @chizwizzler

    Wing flex.

  • awesome, great video, good job

  • normal crosswind landing with de-crab, nothing "mind-blowing" at all. Happens hundreds of times every day all over the world

  • umm crosswind landing?

  • SKILLED pilot there!!!!!

  • looks like a manual landing.

  • was that descent rate a bit too fast? it looked like he was comin in a bit high. Am i wrong? just asking.

  • dude you must be mut now that was like 400DB

  • good pilot, good landing, good airline!

  • wow!

  • You try doing that in a 747 with hundreds of passengers and still go DUHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @littlephilo1 look at me im a fucking expert pilot who knows everything about the situation because ive done this many times before!

    WHEN WE WANT YOUR OPINION WE WILL FUCKING ASK FOR IT!

  • Oh so it isnt just me that lands like that in microsoft flight simulator

  • xD hehe

  • haha yeah i do it too

  • did you see the wings flexing, particularly the left wing? thats insane.

  • you know someone spilled there drink

  • me, i Spilled my Drink.

  • what is so mind blowing about 10knots crosswinds?

  • That was for woarboar by the way. YT sometimes doesn't file comment replies properly?

  • This is nothin, a walk in the park. Search for stuff like crosswind, and Hong Kong Kai Tak

  • lol if you listen closely, it sounds like the guy jizzed in his pants a little after the plane touched down lmao...just NASTY..

  • shit me! :|

  • When I was a kid, my dad would take us to our local airport to watch the planes come in. I recall thinking, "those pilots must be MAGICIANS to be able to bring those big planes in on those tiny wheels!"

    Watching this video, I realize that they are!

  • i think it's not that bad landing

  • Whel, it could have been worse. The touchdown was pretty rough though, look at the wingtips and how they move in relation to to ground. Pilot probably reported a rough landing in his logbook

  • Nonsense. That landing was more than acceptable. The only thing that would go in the log would be another leg.

  • Maybe, of course it depends on the pilots and of course we saw the landing from another point of view so maybe it felt just fine in the aircraft. We may never know. I'm just a student pilot for now but we've learned to report hard landings when we feel one.

  • Wait a few years, Brussels will have you filling out a report if you fart in the cockpit.

    FYI, a hard landing worth reporting (at least by airframe standards) will leave you feeling like a gorilla sat on you. If you had the tip of your tongue sort of clenched between your teeth (as students often do; it's something to do with arse cheek clenching) you'll be missing that as well.

  • Very nice video, thanks for posting.

  • omg dein atmen ist so sexy :D

  • its a cross wind landing, u have to point the nose of the aircraft into the wind for it to maintain a str8 line over the ground, then right before touch down u use the rudders to straighten up the aircraft and aileron to keep it over the center line. its pretty cool

  • 0:43 seconds...

  • its not mind blowing you idiot

  • The angle of attack tells me wind was heading 090 if he was landing on runway 24 (240deg) probably at 40-60knots maybe even 80 knots, did you notice the side slip and rudder motion? did you notice the pilots sinkrate on last final? Gee that could have turned to shit real easy

  • Yes but if this plain is travailing at 230 mph north with a wind speed of X over .375inches, multiplied by 60knots during a 60 degree turn, when will the two plains hit?

  • 80 knot wind? Unless he was landing in a hurricane, highly unlikely. Since Switzerland doesn't have a hurricane season...even more unlikely.

  • what if the pilots were from that continental flight? yikes!

  • im always amuzed by the wingflex :)

  • Did u guys noticed how the wings moves, almost like a bird??? Oh boy... I know this is meant to be, but it's very shocking...

  • very nice n smooth

  • thank god for expirienced pilots

  • @charlesphili1 All pilots are experienced pilots, Especially pilots flying 747's

  • Perfect landing. Respectful to the pilot! So a weather and a Boeing 747 landed safely so. Video quality is also very good. 5*

  • Whoa

  • I'm not getting the 'mind blowing' part - it's a very normal, run of the mill crosswind landing.

  • yes for people like u who dont knw hw to appreciate things its not mind blowing

  • People like you need to get out more, there is NOTHING 'mind blowing' about this landing - it is STANDARD procedure for professional pilots. That is a COMPLIMENT to the pilots btw. Good grief there are FAR more challenging approaches/landings to be seen even here on YT.

  • cool man i didnt tell u anything in a bad manner

    but do u think this is easy to do????? i knw its a lot normal to them, i just said what i wanted to say

  • No offense taken and none intended, cool? I was just saying that the title 'mind blowing' is a stretch in this case. a better title would be 'Nice crosswind landing' or something. And of course it's not easy - but you have to be a trained pro to do it and make it LOOK easy like this pilot does :)

    peace

  • Incredible landing ! be proud of you Pilot !

  • Sorry my Pilipino Prend, but SIA pilots are unrivalled worldwide. Now por puck's sake get back to the airport or you'll miss your Pilipine Airlines plight!!!

  • Great Landing. Amazing!!!!

  • MIND BLOWINGGGGGGGG

  • its hard to land smth that big with a crosswind like that..

  • runway 14

  • WOW, look at the wing flex!

    insane video!

  • The pilot was Japanesse he propably was trying to drift...

  • lol

  • haha ^^

  • HAHA! dude u killed it. bravo.

  • @wolf21990 great...:-) best komment. still laughing. maybe one of the d1-team.

  • @wolf21990 LOOOOOOLLL

  • @wolf21990  xD he watched too many times tokio drift

  • @wolf21990 LMAO!!! Hahahaha

  • Standard OP I think, what's that called, crabbing or something.

  • nice crosswind landing but nothing mind-blowing here

  • LOL WAT A PILOT

  • car like driving style on a runway)

  • lol makes that runway look big

  • Good landing, but there was nothing to blow the mind

  • It could be that the plane was coming in too fast, and the pilot simply "slipped" the plane to slow it down. it would then obviously be necessary to normalize the controls just before landing or ....

    nj

  • whats so amazing bout it?

  • Must have been one hell of a crosswind.

    I can imagine as a passenger looking out the the window and thinking wtf.

  • Damn good pilot!

  • Lier, It wasn't you who filmed this video!

  • He hasn't said that he did ;)

  • "Well, this is one of the best videos I have ever shot." ?

  • Just to let all of u guys know... That was a very hard landing. I mean if u see how hard the wheels hit the ground on the last second of short final, then you would notice how hard it was.

  • this is what i was about to say!!

  • nice

  • sweeeettt

  • incredible

  • lol, almost look like a bird moving its wings

    impressive

  • AMAZING landing! i think when you sit in the aircraht you will be very scared!

  • wOah

  • indeed. very good

  • Absolutely amazing video. Crosswind landings are intense!

  • crabing til flare??? shud be in wing low once u r on finalz...

  • umm pubu, wtf?

  • theres 2 methods crab or forward slip, forward slip is more recommended as the plane will be straight..the crab u hold it then at last minute kick the rudder over to align your self

  • nice vid, ive seen this in many videos before but this is the full version of the landing, again nice vid!

  • Dont worry, wings can bend much much much more.

  • yea have you ever seen the 777 wings flex?

  • breathless and awesome! Thanks for sharing!

  • OMG!! SIA!!!

  • Awesome video, thanks for sharing it!

  • awesome landing. i fly cessna 172's out of RDU in north carloina, and i see these quite often, and still to this day its simply amazing each time. thanks for sharing

  • aircraft pilots are on to it . nice landing

  • NO you weren't you lying sack of shit. The pilot never made an anouncement as the engines failed 20secs before touchdown. Douche

  • dude don't lie, k? it's one thing to give a little fib, but actually lie about being in a plane crash?  that's really low.

  • that was a crosswind landing, nothing wrong with it.

  • Awsome cross wind landing! Goes to show how skilled pilots are! Thanks for sharing the video!

  • I have never seen such an impressive wing flex on a video! Thanks foir sharing! (Just for information, the SQ747 lands on runway 14 and not on the 27 (that's a bit short for the beast)..)

  • I wood hate being on there but very good pilot

  • Anyone who knows anything about Flying would know that this is a very common Approach for Airplanes in Windy Conditions... Great Video though, Thanks for posting

  • I agree cos my uncle is a 747 pilot

  • I would not have liked to be on that flight

  • look at the wings flapping lol

  • i'm so happy for pilots to be paid a lot of money, to keep the best people!!!

  • Unbelievable!!!

  • nice

  • Don't care what you think, I thought it was a marvallous laanding. Great close up too of the triple slotted flaps, thanks.

  • great pilot

  • ouh die aktion han ich total vergässe...joah das passiert

    chönnt ihr in zuekunft nöd Dütschi Usdruck verwende?!

  • wow big deal

  • You don't know much about the effects of telephoto lenses, do you...

  • Well, I'm not American, and I too say there was nothing "mind-blowing" about it. Bog standard stuff. Only "mind-blowing" toi the ignorant.

  • As I was watching it, I hadn't read any of these comments, and I was thinking, "Yeah, so? It's a crosswind landing, something that all pilots are trained to do from literally almost Day 1 in the basic 2-seat single engine trainer in which they got their basic PPL."

  • dats normal stuff fr pilots,.......
