[JATO457]

what seat were you in

[nt4420]

@JATO457 Seat 35G

[jg112393]

I was on a northwest DC-9 once and the pilot slammed the speedbrakes out and i nearly hit my head on the seat in front of me...it was fun

[datsniggawater]

i must be right because listen to 2:55 watch the plane drop

[datsniggawater]

when there are wind brakes dose it make u feel like your free falling getting negative Gs like a rollercoaster

[slaneyboi]

@datsniggawater No of course it doesn't negative g is where the blood rushes to your head, so you're going away from the centre of the earth, not towards it.

hi dude,the flaps are there for the plane to slow down,slw down on the runway,and to loose lift,thats all dude but you look like cj in gta sanandreas

[N672UW]

No. The flaps create more lift by increasing the chord line of the wing. They do however, also create more drag. They are used in a small amount on take off for more lift, and then used in landing to create drag and allow the plane to fly at lower speeds because of the increased lift.

[nt4420]

The plane had to slow down & get down into ATL, Hence the title of the video.

[finfinqx56]

awesome video! When we were landing into JFK in the 767 they were slowing down now and again, but wow I've never been that long with the spoilers. Our pilot planted it also, although I perfer the kiss landings but the firms ones are fun....I posted a video response. Thanks for the vid!

[kingconnex]

I thought speed brakes were never ever supposed to be used while in the air? They are pretty much there just to make the wings loose lift, and it opes up a big rectangular hole in the wing.

[SevenFiveSevenCrazy]

nope, they also greatly reduce the airspeed...they are designed to do that.

[typ002]

Thats not true. I think in this situation, the pilot figured he had too much fuel, so he deployed his air brake in order to make the engine work harder, and burn more fuel so he would have a lighter plane when he touched down.

[bgdf]

Well no, if that was the case he would just dump fuel :)

[rhs2000vtec]

So this route is flown multiple times every day and they overload it with fuel every time thus wasting money? I respectively doubt that's the case. That's like a kid putting their hand on the hot stove even though it's burned him every time before.

[slaneyboi]

@typ002 That's not true, he would just dump fuel if he had too much, and why would he have too much in the first place. They do kinda plan these flights.

Kobeydurham is a fake delta pilot

[Kobeydurham]

i was on this flight!!!!!1

[uploader1010]

as a passenger? because you are not a real pilot you fake piece ofcrap

[deidaraunpro]

I LOVE DELTA AIRLINES! they are the best!

[PuffMac]

The sound of the flaps extending on the 767 is great :)

[lablastaz]

i know, it gves me chills when i hear it =)

[crawfordsjamie]

this is all to explain to mikegr190

[crawfordsjamie]

BIGGER planes have more seats-- obviously

so thats why they fly the 767 mco to atl because lots of people fly that route. CRJ = less seats and less $ to operate and rochester to atlanta = less people flying these routes. All airlines try to fit the right aircraft for the right routes. After all, most CRJ have ranges up to 1700 miles!

[mikegr190]

great airliner, great landing, great video. i always wonder why delta flys delta connection long routes like from rochester, ny to atlanta with little crj's and then u fly in a big 767 on a short flight, crj's and 737's should be flying that route

[crawfordsjamie]

the answer is demand... Short haul flights such as this require very little range, but there are tons of people flying these routes. They use crj-700 and 100 in Rochester because 1) the airport is a small one and 2) there are less people flying these routes. Also, Delta probably doesn't fly there just like they don't in Portland, Maine... they have their delta connection fly there instead. I have worked for Delta for 27 years and this is usually why we have diverse flight routes and aircraft.

[PianoDood567]

Is that a 767ER

[Motocrosser14]

no almost definitely not, those are all used on international and other long flights across water

[laverdegiant14]

air bracking is awsome it sounds so cool

[nt4420]

I felt that this was a "firm enough" landing.

Sometimes its necessary for the pilots to plant the plane on the ground.

[PerfectLanding123]

i fly on 767-300 all the time from dulles to brussles and man 8:30 hour flight casue i have family there im from brussles and i love the 767-300 we fly it everytime (sometimes 777) its landings sound hard but there not its the way the wheels are i asked a captian before

[flyerholland]

i think ur right with that.. its because of the position the 767 has it wheels as it lands ( they are the opposit way as for the other models like 777 and 747 and 757) also i think it has to do.. the spoilers deploy really fast on the 767 .. at the 777 its devided and so first the outher and inner come then the middle.

[crawfordsjamie]

If you guys want to fly 777-200er fly to Asia and ATL to LAX (vice-versa too) But if u want to fly on the 777-200lr, there is currently one aircraft operating the jfk-bom route. (mumbai, India)

[PSPmaster321]

That was a fine landing

[fritoz2007]

that wasnt even a hard landing!

[EsotericDesi]

Great video...

[redjesster]

ouch! that landing was really hard!

[madskilz620]

it seemed like something broke on the plane

[Urbanninja3]

I love flying just an amzing feeling and also the fact that its a huge hunk of metal thats in the sky and it stays up is just amazing nice vid :)

[CDLREVOLUTION]

KIND OF A HARD LANDING.

[StratMatt777]

Arming the spoilers for landing does not cause the spoilers to extend, it only arms a circuit. The spoilers can be commanded to extend as far as the flight detent when desired for air braking, of course, and extend all the way up to the ground position for lift dump upon touchdown when the landing gear squat switch is activated at the point of touchdown.

Nice video!

[shanebear67]

Im flying the B767-300 to san dieago CA on septermber 1st shooting a video taking off and landing seated on 40G

[nt4420]

N i c e! Can't wait to see it!

[baronblod2003]

Ehr..You arent allowed to have any electrical appliances up while you're going up or down..

[JlMmorrison]

he's just arming the spoilers thats it.

[mikegr190]

how long was the flight?

[mikegr190]

wow they hav a 767 fly in tht short of a distance? i would expect a A320 or 737

[Irishfan21]

they use the 767 because of heavy demands of flights to florida, i once flew from south bend-atlanta-ft. lauderdaul (sp), and even though both flights are the same distance, the flight to florida was a 767 because of people wanting to visit florida, it was also christmas time, yet the flight from south bend 2 atlanta was on a tiny plane

[4711info]

Tppavra: we know it's the air break mechanism.... it's a great video, thx.

[smash29]

Spoilers.

[Tpavra]

The air brakes are what come up at the top, all this is, is a normal landing with the flaps moving into position for landing. Nevertheless, this is an excellent video :)
