  • great landing

  • Ladies and Gentleman, you captain speeking: as you may have noticed, we hit London City Airport...

  • Pilot: Hold Ma Beer!!

    Co Pilot: Um Sir i dont thinks tha.......

    Pilot:YEEEHAAAAA!!!!

  • THE PILOT IS A COWBOY

  • holy fuck look ho close the tail gets to hiting the ground

  • I'm surprised those wings didn't just break off, or the gear collapse!

  • Enter your text here

  • Don't drink and fly!

  • If I were inside this plane, I'd screamed, really.

  • 50. 40. 30. 20. retard retard, i finally understand why that is:P

  • i was on a commuter plane that landed at Logan like that. I was in the first row of seats with a Stewardess in a jump seat right in front of me. When we first bounced that gal turned white as a sheet.

    I thanked the pilot and copilot for a great job later at a minibar later, but for their skill I could have been history.

  • Holy cow!

  • Just watching it makes my heart drop out of my ass!

  • superb

  • Just a bad case of vertical wind shear boys and girls. Because on landing he obviously passed into the region of the downdraft, where he just lost lift. Seriously if your are a pilot or have ever flown... I ain't kidding, wind-shear is a bitch!!!

  • Passengers, we are now bouncing to the gate and will be there soon!

    You're Pilot Mr. Kangaroo

  • thats what wingflex tests are done for during a/c development

  • @STRSpotter wtf are you talking about??? wingflex??

  • It'd be interesting to know if anyone was injured (hopefully not) and if the plane took any demaged. I know the shock absorbers can take a lot but that was really extreme. With such a descent in simulator I'd have aborted the landing and tried a different runway.

  • @Mutio86

    Yes I heard that the plane had to be repared.

  • Did the wind shear have something to do with this, it seems like the decent in the end was rather rapid.

  • @MichaelNewmann he was nose down at the end then pulled back hard.

  • wer hoats geflogan? - Die schwuaiza.

    Un wär genoau? - die vona swiess!

  • Ouch!

  • Great landing if it were on an aircraft carrier!

  • that was controlled crash!

  • they say that a good landing is always a landing that you can walk away from but I don't think they could "walk" away from this landing :)

  • Just the one landing fee!

  • damin

    

  • approaching minimums, 50, 40,30,20,10, minimums minimums, 30, 10, 40 10 positive rate of climb gear up, 50, 40, 30!! minimums!!!

  • in-flight movie: Tokyo drift

  • lol smbody jumped on board silly ass rabbit

  • please be careful opening the overhead compartments as some items may have shifted.

  • At least she landed on the runway?

  • Taking the piss!!!

  • wow they were lucky

  • jeeez... the damn thing just kept lurking here and there! i am sure the pilot screamed a bit before it stopped! thanks for posting...

  • great kangaroo landing....

  • landing or smooth crash

  • I bet everone had brown underwear after that!!!

  • I bet the passengers were shitting themselves !!

  • 100 bucks says at least 10 people crapped their pants!

  • AT 0.05.., i was like What the hell!!! Thats the worst landing i've ever seen!

  • AT 0.05.., i was like What the hell!!!

  • i thought the gear would blow off!

  • holdy shiit :L

  • I think he was shot down

  • Even if anyone would have passed the shit, it would have got back inside when the plane bumped up , damn shity hard landing it was.

  • Comment removed

  • R.I.P landing gear

  • thumbs up if you would make shit in your pants

  • Thumbs up to the strength of the landing gears

  • the worst bit is what you cant see , which is that this is London " City " airport , which is built on a long thin artificial island surrounded on all sides by what used to be old ship docks full of water , so if you go far off the landing strip there you end up in the drink .

    The district has a lot of tall new buildings as well , which makes for interesting wind direction changes .

    Not good .

  • Enter your text here

  • I'll killl the pilot if I was on that plane! LOL!

  • that plane buckled lucky it didn't snap in half like I thought it was going to do..

    imagine how that felt to the passengers..

    I bet more than 5 of them needed a change in clothes after that one..

  • A windsheer obviously. Glory to British Aerospace structure Designers !

    In fact, the BAE146 was produced as military a/c. Very strong workhorse :-)))

    Take care guys !

  • the glide path at London City is quite steep. Here we also have a lot of crosswind + probably a wind sheer on short final. On the BAE-146 the spoilers are deployed before landing and it has no reverse trust. The landing was very hard and i am sure that the plane had to checked for damage. Everybody on this flight will never this landing.

  • Aaand touch... touch... touch... touchdown!

  • Very lucky, looks like questions need to be asked

  • almost looks like the plane was caught up in windshear or just decending too dam fast...

  • @gbriff it's correct. agree with you.

  • 0:12 that plane has 3 sets of wheels for a reason you know

  • Haha... 30, 20, 10... ... 10, 20...

  • @L1J2D3 Haha i would say: 50, 40 *BOOOOM* 20, 10 *BOOM* :D

  • HOLY SHIT!?!?! AT 0:05 I SERIOUSLY THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA CRASH :S

  • "Crab landing" technique.

  • I don't know why there is a crash in the tag line. There was no crash. The pilot successfully landed the plane; it was just a tad bumpy.

  • i may be wrong but those rear spoilers shouldnt have been applied till touch down?

  • @ARCANINE6 . On the BAE 146-X00 the spoiler is applied before landing.

  • OMFG

  • That's the sort of landing that one of those Indian fake pilots would make, but on a mild day

  • Greats landings!!! All three of them.

  • WTF was that landing bet he got a bollocking

  • windshear !!!

  • looks fake

  • @keirenza33 You stick with that then...

  • what was this pilot thinking of ?? ,,,,(OH LET ME SEE IF I CAN MAKE THIS PLANE EXPLODE )

  • at 0:12 airplane drift

  • smooth landing..........very

  • drift challange archived

  • I just read an article from my friend, this airport has a 7 deg glideslope. Maybe that's why the pilot already used the spoiler at the back. Late in flaring and that will happen ^^

  • Nice flare

  • I like how thats swiss air with the hospital + on its tail, your gonna need one after that ladning :P

  • great smooth landing

  • anyone need a injury LAWYER..................

  • I don't want to be in this plane!

  • that would stink.

    scarry

  • is the runway ok ?

  • poor Earth!!! After that "landing" the aircraft must be inspectioned...

  • Woah. Not seen this before. This could beat the Hamburg crosswind horror (watch?v=ueJeC2pxxbM) for nearest miss.

  • i want those type of hydraulics on my car

  • nice landing! :D

  • Comment removed

  • Don't know if this has been mentioned already but if it has I apologise - just noticed that you said 17/01/2008 for this landing - this was actually the same day - within hours actually - of BA38 crashing at Heathrow. And a few hours after that, my flight from LCY to GLA. Just found it quite co-incidental that if this had been any worse there would've been two major incidents at London airports that day.

  • oh my god !

  • WTF????

  • i would like to see the passengers faces 

  • tail strike at 0:08!

  • @ugentk2010 nope

  • At least the pilot still managed to pull the nose up because if not, its front wheels will get cracked or destroyed.

  • We pilots have a saying-"A landing you can walk away from is a good landing.A landing that you can walk away from AND use the plane again is a great landing!"Haha,no but seriously..that guy should have initiated a go-around.The landing was a little dodgy..

  • Wow why the landing was too hard?

    Was for crosswind or something like that?

  • @shadyz2009 it was windshear

    its a windy day as you can see and they have to do a steep approach to EGLC anyway (london city) and i think the plane got some windshear which pushes the nose down, its not uncommon but it can be very dangerous on short final like this but the landing gear did the job this time :)

  • Someone needs to call BAE or Avro - Cruelty to 146s....

  • That was almost an accident!

  • Ouch!

  • Un animal

  • WINDSHEAR

  • WHAT-THE-F***?

  • well im sure everyone lost their virginity to their seats :/

  • nice quality

  • You're all retarded.

    This plane, along with a lot of other "heavies" can land with non-straight gear. In fact this is a standard way of landing in heavy crosswind. You loose velocity by gently touching your gear on the ground, basically letting you land at a slightly higher Vref

  • @fiyahballz LOL you called that gently?

  • @fiyahballz , are you having a laugh, 1st its a Bae146 far from a heavy, and that standard landing as you call it, is awful, if it was me in my airline I would be halled in for a one way conversation with the chief skipper and with no tea and biscuits.....your obviously not a pilot, and this was an extremely poor attempt at a landing, London City is a 5.5 deg glide slope but it still makes no odds. This landing was that bad the runway was shut for an none routine inspection after it.

  • Comment removed

  • I'm still amazed ass to how the wings or the suspension did'nt break after that inpact nice quality.

  • auouch

  • Welcome at London City !! =( , Video ist very cool !!

  • @flyairberlin738 ja ja. diese ist prima!

  • whoa! that first contact would of snapped off the landing gear and the wings too! that was one HARD landing. but why did he launch it to the runway no one knows.

  • wth was the pilot thinking... GO AROUND if you have to, don't launch it into the runway!!!! i am actually amazed that airplane even withstood the impact.

  • I would check up that landing gear before letting the damn plane fly again.

  • better do a aircraft check after that one...

  • @thewairrior not half

  • Surprised it survived

  • @Hencer16 No. Bae-146-300

  • @GrapefruitSalad97

    No, it's a Avro RJ-100

  • @permelbye Yeah, but they're the same thing

  • @GrapefruitSalad97

    Yes almost.. still difference in electronics, engines, autothrottle, autoland, but they feel the same to fly, that's true :)

  • At least we know the wings are on tight.

  • They were very lucky!!

  • loooooooooooool thats mega bumping :p

  • Swiss Int. Airlines Pilot have to absolve a special landing & take off training to get permission to land at LCY-Airport because this airport affords a steep landing and take off angle! After this near-crash landing the captain lost his permission to fly to LCY according to Swiss.

  • it's wind sheer. under the perfect stole.

    passenger felt scary, i guess.

  • the pilot is a rookie this landing is very bad and dangerous

    he scared the S out off the passengers......

  • great pilot!! Not easy to manage a plane with that wind...

  • I feel sooo bad for that pilot. It may have been wind sheers fault, but that is how jobs are lost.

  • DAMN, feel sorry for those passengers!

  • Ouch !!!!

    Does anyone have an aspirin, please ??? My back makes me hurt !!!

  • well the reason is there is crosswinds and even though im 13 i have flew a plane with a copilot no joke the plane was a Remos GX its a 2 seater small plane but crosswinds are when the wind isnt towards the runway its opposite so look at how he changes from left to right when he is close to the runway

  • @1270DO Hi, what you mean are the airbrakes on the tail which are often deployed on landing, thats normal. After the touchdown the spoilers on the wings deploy. The RJ100 has no reverse trust by the way.

  • Holy hell, is this real? They must have been drunk. And I thought my first landing was shitty...

  • i'll bet the crews were all used to it like "oh boy here we go"

  • The pilot lost his mind.

  • ouuu shitt

  • ouch!!! (=

  • I wonder how the passangers felt at that moment...

  • product of JAA European training no doubt. get some experience first.

  • Wow Son.......what the hack was that? think about the people inside of that thing..........

  • cause you get what you pay for. pay a shitty salary for a regional pilot and thats what you get.

    that was a completely dumb move. remind me not to fly swiss air.

  • why didnt he go around? or at least try to get a decent approach?

  • Why would he go around? You only go around if theres a plane on the runway, or the airport is busy and they need more time, you don't go around due to bad weather, it's not like you circle the airport and the weathers gonna change :P

  • @LianzThe1337 when a pilot is on final

    aproach has two options he could either

    try two things, he could either go around the

    runway or he could try land saftly in this case

    he did not land safely and the gear almost c

    collapsed therefor, if he would of alerted atc

    and went around the runway he would of very

    well had enough time to slow down and land

    safely.

  • You are sooo wrong there my friend. A pilot will abort a landing attempt at anytime if he or she feels it cannot be safely performed. A pilot's first priority is the safety of the aircraft and it's passengers. There have been landings where the pilot landed on the runway but for one reason or another did not think they could get stopped so they re-applied power and took off. Problems with thrust reverse or brakes for example would cause this reaction.

  • @Premair Yes, and in this case, he/she should definitely Go Around. :)

  • @LianzThe1337 haha you don't have a clue.. a TOGA ( go around ) is issued in ANY circumstance if their is a reason that landing isn't safe or is made impossible. The weather changes ALL THE TIME, and in this situation, you can see a lot of wind-shere ( i hope no microburst ), every approach is different. So, maybe he had a smooth appr. and went go for landing but encountered hvy wind-sh while landing, yet he was go for landing and too low. If he could he would have go around, I'm sure.

  • Does anyone know why this plane came down so hard?

  • I'm guessing it was "wind-shear" which is a sudden change in wind direction. Wind blowing towards airplane's nose suddenly changes direction and blows towards the tail.

    When this happens during an approach to land, aircraft airspeed drops dangerously close to stall-speed, or worse... a complete loss of lift.

    At 0:06, aircraft suddenly drops from a normal glide-path. He could have crashed. Looks like permanent airframe damage.

  • um because the pilots sucked?

  • i would kick the shit out off the pilot when the plane has come to a stop !! that crazy fuck playing with lives !!! but funny to c when you not in it xD

  • wat a landing...just joking tht was the worst landing ever..dude...

  • Can imagine the passangers inside.

  • Budweisser landing!!!

  • london city very hard place to land , plus the winds making it more difficult lol :P

  • incredible stunt... drops out of the sky and skids to a stop. too bad for passengers

  • That could make a guy 3 inches shorter!

  • real. why did the pilot leave the speed brakes which is the pilons out of then nose on while he was landing. that was his mistake

  • whoa......:O

  • that cant be real...

  • of course it is!

  • Ouchhh!

  • Comment removed

  • on sent le pilote qui veut absolument pas tenté de go around OMFG mais ce mec a aucun respect pour ces pneumatic ... et surtosu pour les passagers !!!!!!!

    abuséé il y a meme un tail strike a un moment et le top c les spoiler il ne savent meme plus sil doivent sortir rentré ou sortir a demi

    grat video

    favourite !!!!!

  • Wahoo ! very bumpy landing ! Hard ! Very nice video ! Favourite !

  • ohaaaaaaa

    ooommmmgggg

  • Omg. Was he trying to make a suicide?

  • franchement bravo a se pitole parcque il a fait du bon boulot

    poser cette apareile

  • probably an israel pilot

    thy are worthless

  • Its a Swiss Air BAE, with most likely swiss pilots.

    Stop hating, Israeli Pilots are among the best in the world. Dont be a fool.
