  • I NO THE PILOT HE WAS AT MY SCHOOL

  • who do you like better

  • @TheCaptainjay

    no doubt... AMERICAN made... built to last... designed to be profittable.

  • There's no such thing as an "American made" plane. There are many countries that come into play to construct all the parts, it's just assembles in one place...doesn't make it American made.

  • From what I have learned these guys are doing it wrong. They should be using cross-control technique. Aileron into the wind and opposite rudder to keep the airplane straight.

    Touching down sideways puts a lot of stress on the gear and it is dangerous.

  • @ut561129 you are talking about a different scenario... what you learned it is OK... when you are at the flight school trying to get your license!!

    -This videos show some procedures of an aircraft test flight.... pilots are doing RIGHT!! In an aircraft test flight you have to stress the aircraft in certain ways...

    Do not get confused!!

  • @ut561129 This is a recognised technique called side slipping and is used by pilots world wide, doing what you have suggested is not enough to compensate for the cross winds in all circumstances.

  • @ut561129 In larger complex aircraft, the landing gear is designed to take the side load and stress. If they landed cross controlled, they'd leave the engine behind on the runway, wing strike! The wings are quite long. I fly light aerplanes and in those you can slideslip all the way down into the flare and touch down.

  • Landing in a high crosswing is truly an art. If you never tried to land in a crosswind, then you have no clue of what im talking about and Ace combat doesn't count.

  • 747SP!!! That RTO at 2:27 is pretty cool too- I've never seen footage like that before... look at the pilot react with the rudder deflection!

  • Wow, the engineering and variables AND piloting are absolutely stunning!

  • Cool video. Song sucka asa WTF?

  • cool song

  • It takes a special kind of breed to fly a plane. Not anybody can. I can't. :(

  • @cipmars

    I am sorry U think like that but... if U have the right instructor with a right attitude... you will make it.

  • @sivarita I guess so, but it takes a large amount of courage. I'm not afraid of killing myself, I'd be very afraid of killing others.

  • JET ENGINE SOUNDS NOT MUSIC!!!

  • I found the soong :))) Yeeey!!!! Goood i love these aircrafts :) :) :)

  • 2:07 Landing is NUTS

  • wow did you see the pressure effects on the vertical stabilizer at 1: 07 ? crazy good piloting

  • this was windcross landing test

  • Shine by Havana (Nic's Cubano Soul Remix)

  • @ujds U R right!! That is the song... Havana by Shine... many people asked me about it. I appreciate it!

  • the last one after last came from holland =)

  • gotta love kai tak!

  • gotta love kai tak!

  • @Gallygoy

    About the soundtrack: When I first uploaded ths video it had a different song, it was from Enigma but it did not really matched with this images so I switched it... but I do NOT remember what is the one that it is playing.

    SORRY !!

  • @sivarita  alright ,thanks for answer...preciate it man ;)

  • Its not the song everyone tell us it is !!!Listen carefully please ...and give us the name of the song .,..iff you actally hear what song it is!!

    Thank you

  • Noone seems to know ..first person who thinks he knows it ...well i looked it up ..and nooo!!! it wasent !!!! ..this song that is in thiss video isent the same as the song they say it was ...listen carefully before you say name of a song!!!

    If anyone really know the song name --please do tell us!!!

  • The first couple are test landing flights of 777s.

  • love 777-300ER!!

  • Great music. Who plays this ?

  • 666,666th viewer. I'll drink to that...

  • 1:32 is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Awsome crab landings

  • What airport is this?

  • I do this in my 787 all the time!

  • with out batteries ?

  • Aren't the 777 parts of this vid from the Boeing 777 cross-wind testing? Well them and one lone 747 (0.27) prior to the Korean Air's alarming approach to Kai Tak?

  • Sideslipping! Isn't this were you cross the controls? Right rudder/Left aileron etc. I thought that was a technique for losing height quickly if you're too high on approach. Or do you have to use large deflections to do that, lose height that is?

  • Looks good however technically that was not a correct crosswind landing.

    The pilot should have touched the left hand wheel down first with the left wing pointing towards the ground.

    As they say any landing you can walk away from is a good landing :)

  • It's really hard for those big guys to do a corrected landing like that. Usually in any strong crosswind they will touch down sideways and while skidding correct the angle, that way the tire will help hold them on the runway instead of drifting off to the side. Plus that would be an awful amount of force coming down on one wheel.

  • Not really. I do it in the 767/757 all the time. It can take the landing, and is certified for it.

  • I have a question for you. You're in a twin engined jet with one engine out, you're coming into land but you have a strong crosswind. Which side would you prefer to have that crosswind, the good engine side or dead engine side? Also, with today's big jets like 767 is it still true you do not turn into a dead engine?

    Thanks.

  • It is not supposed to be a "technically" correct landing. These are tests designed to stress the aircraft.

  • Doesnt matter the technique used to accomplish it.

    Boeing says you dont have to do a sideslip to land this aircraft, the trucks, landing gear, and tyres are designed to be used like this. And it has a max demonstrated crosswind component of 38kts. If you do a sideslip in that wind, you will scrap an engine nacelle.

    Its not a C172!

  • Its not a C172, Boeing says that you do not have to land this aircraft with a sideslip in a crosswind.

    The B777 has a max demonstrated crosswind component of 38kts, and the bank angle that would produce from doing a pure sideslip would scrap an engine nacelle. The tyres, trucks and landing gear are designed to be used like this.

  • And any landing where the plane can fly again is a great one! :)

  • incredible, test pilots are the best

  • Check out rudder deflection on 777 tests. Try that in an Airbus. Boeing has lost enough B-52 vert. stabilizers to have gotten right.

  • great vid!

  • this gives me a hard on.. love it!

  • damn good landing at 1:40

  • 2:27 Possible bird strike

  • gotta be a stupid bird! hehe

  • 2:27 possible Birdstrike

  • 2:27 WTF?!?!

  • Bird strike maybe?

  • Engine compressor failure and subsequent RTO.

  • @gary747pilot Compressor stall?

  • @gary747pilot Engine Flameout?

  • why do you think is landing sideways fuking cross wind durrrr

  • So why is it landing sideways?

    Lol just kidding. Don't some Boeings have steerable main gear for high crosswind landings?

    And wow, that 747 at 2:10 should have gone around, ya think?

  • at kai tak going around would've taken the crew way too long - hes just a confident captain lol

  • They are landing sideways because they're doing crosswind certification tests. No, Boeing airliners don't have steerable main gears for landing and yes, in my professional opinion the 747 at 2:10 should have gone around.

  • u make me feel like i in hawii wit dat music u got man cmon

  • white cloud-- music i tagged with shazam

  • why do these planes lands sideways?...

  • they are flying like that (called crabbing) to compensate for the wind which would blow them off course otherwise. Someone can go more into detail, but thats the basic idea.

  • Well its not called crabbing, but that is exactly why they land sideways in high winds. its called cross wind landing.

  • Its becasue they have wind that is blowing sideways, called 'crosswind' and in order for them to land on the runway, they need to turn the plane into the wind.

  • See most times runway has parallel upwind/downwind. Sometimes wind blows across runway making aircraft loose course. To overcome this pilots adjusting rudder and aileron to maintain course (Side-Slip) Its the same method you would do to overcome crosswind when u drive and holding the steering tilted against the wind to maintain control. The main landing gears are only part of the airplane align with runway. After air-brakes deployed rest of aircraft follows. Hope that answers your question. bye

  • Same as when you drive and wind bushes u out of the road and u hold steering tilted against the wind. Runway has upwind/downwind most times. Sometimes wind blows across the runway so pilots overcome this by adjusting rudder and aileron bushing aircraft against the wind and only main landing gear align with runway. After air-brakes deployed and airspeed slows pilots easily adjust rudder and aileron to bring rest of the aircraft back align with runway. In aviation this is called "Side-Slipping"

  • Its caused by the wind and they do what is called a crosswind landing.

  • Thats some serious crabbing!

  • pls can anybody tell me the name of the sound track

  • I am sorry :(

    I do not remember the name of this sound track

  • mate i looked and looked, i cant find it. sorry bud

  • That is some serious skill

  • The landing at 1:35 was absolutely side-on...Wow, some skill...

  • yeah i think thats in thailand, the worst place for jets to land cuz its so mountainous and lotsa wind

  • The second to the last landing is the most amazing thing Ive ever seen.

    I sincerely hope on my next flight the pilot is half as talented.

  • the man is the perfect being in the world let us appreciate that!!!!

  • (¡hostias!)

  • Boeing 777 - nice !

  • lol......wing first landing

  • What airport is that ?

  • Area 51

  • haha yea

  • Its some airport in Brazil where it is always windy. I believe this video is from Boeing tape.

  • Dear all,

    Good video, but I'm looking for this song ?

    Does anyone know this music ?

    Thanks

  • Comment removed

  • The Song is from:

    Havana

    called:

    Shine

    greetings newyam

  • 1 : 33 was really a sick ass wind

  • they land like that. lol

  • I know! What a landing - crab like...

  • Comment removed

  • muito loko!!

  • korean air one is da best one

  • Those are Boeing test flights.

  • AMAZING!

    Watch my videos from Israel. THANKS!

  • thats crazy...

  • its a test flight

  • Kai tak airport is surrounded by mountains and this causes a lot of crosswind. I myself have experienced landing in Kai Tak.

  • Beautiful, nice video, awesome pilots!

  • That menouver (spelling mistake) is trained to all pioilts (another spelling mistake), in case their wind breaks or something fail. I forget.

  • Yeah, those men in the cockpit are worth of their rewards.

  • wow those are some badass pilots!

  • I know, thats really anoying and you cant look around the cockpit easily unless you have a pov hat on your controller

  • flying in real life is much easier than fsx os u can feel the pane and what its doing through the controls and yourself, which u cant do in fsx

  • man my fav lane from my fav company built boeing tough and i play fsx and its my first flight sim game and u guys my know me on there as kevin747_400 i motsly fly the boeing 777,767,747 and when i land in crosswinds i seem to always land on the edge of the runway and i use the posky aircraft i need some help

  • does anybody know what the old song for this video was? it was so much better.

  • It was Enigma - Return to Innocence

  • thanks

  • I guess gay youtube changed the music for copyright?

    Yes we are all fucking bandits and shall steal the old song.

  • Be easy with your controls my friend and you shoul think that when you are going to land you are flying at low aispeeds so the flght controls lose effectiveness and you have to be EASY with the controls... do not move them in excess, just a little and notice what happens... then if requires more rudder or ailerons or elevator you should apply as necessary... feel the airplane and you will flay smoothly... do not fight with it... take it easy!!!

  • 1:25 is the best , the pilot had to use very hard rudder inputs , u can notice the rudder extending to its maximum

  • one hell of a pilot

  • That landing gear is hatin' life. This is like Drifting airplane style. This would make a good Bridgestone or Goodyear commercial. You steal my idea... I have a You Tube record of saying it. LOL

  • what does that balloon on top of the tail do?

  • i wanna know that too

  • i think nobody's going to tell us!!

  • What a fantastic example of flying.

  • this indian guy in the song made tears im my eyes cuz i was laughingso hard..lmfao!! but cool song.

  • The music please !

  • Enigma, Return to Innocence

  • i would be scared shitless if i was a passenger

  • if people actually made an effort to change over, oil would be obsolete. hydrogen is much more efficient. making hydrogen only requires electricity, then when burned, turns back into water, then more electricity, then back to water, over and over. lookup HHO on youtube. you will find thousands of home made fuel cells that put the large companies to shame.

  • And to get that electricity you need oil again... or you have to cover the whole surface of the earth with windmills and solar panels, taking land away from farming purposes, or you have to create fuel with cane sugar or other plantations.. or you have to switch to nuclear. Most people don't like to hear this, but nuclear power has a smaller environmental footprint than many "greener" alternatives. You take radioactive fuel from the ground, put back radioactive waste.

  • evidently you're conversation jumping. cause you just missed it completely what was said. no oil. read more.

  • and to clarify. 4 turbines on a 747, you can hookup some more power generators and put out 100,000 watts or so continuously, which is more then enough to power commercial grade hydrogen fuels cells, which in turn powers the turbines. get the idea? no oil. just oil always been so cheap no one cared. times are changing. boeing just flew a piston job on a hydrogen fuel cell a few weeks ago, look it up.

  • Sorry, can't create energy from nowhere. Splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen takes MORE energy than recombining them provides (takes exactly the same energy, but a lot is wasted in inefficiencies). No escaping the 2nd principle of thermodynamics. We can use nuclear, solar or geothermic. Oil is solar energy, stored through ages by organic processes and fossilized. Wind is solar energy heating and moving air masses. The CO2 that we are putting in the air was already there in the past.

  • if you want to get into a philosophical debate, go to church or something, i dont care. cause everything you are trying to discredit is already been proven. kind of like this. this is gm's own pertual motor/generator. no external power sources whatsover. Video: U-Lnhs7caCo GMC HOLDING CORP, REMAT , RARE EARTH ELECTRO MAGNETIC ENGINE cheers and go away. thanks

  • Research your sources. If "perpetual motion" machines were realistically viable I'd expect at least the military to make use of them.

  • you should do your. first, 200 - 15mw units on order from a hungarian company that some former soviet rocket scientists started. the U.N. is trying to block the sale, cause a large chunk of their funding is by oil money. here's another video for ya, works fine, no external power: PFGiWiXMHn0 seems like the law of physics works fine, since the law of physics is incomplete and there is still no unified there, because current level of knowledge has only scratched the surface. cheers, no go away

  • ps: narrow mindness of physics is just a lack of understanding, that there are no boundaries in science. some of rockwell's own engineers said that the sound barrier was not able to be broken, it was a wall, it was impossible because physics didn't allow for it. guess what, as usual, they were wrong. cheerio. and please attend some physics classes. btw, i have a ba in aeronautical engineering and built my own plane. cheerio

  • Science PRESUMES doubt, I for one am doubtful. I doubt Rockwell engineers would have said that the sound barrier was unsormountable, since it had been broken several times before by projectiles, for example, and in some cases by diving aircrafts. Perendev devices don't work, you can't extract energy from a static field. IT would be like trying to power a motor with gravity: it will work only as long as something is falling down, and converting potential energy to another form.

  • u should hear yourself. btw, that perendev video that you said dont work cause you cannot produce energy with it, well attach a generator unit to the shaft. der.... heck, i have a generator that produces 3200w/120amp on a 25cc weed eater motor. not hard.... by now, your a trip

  • The Perendev hoax is years old, the only site substaining the claims on the device is perendev's, the page only reports about "potential" and "studies" and keeps on denying peer review. This isn't how science is done. Extraordinary claims must be matched by extraordinary proof, and so far this is failing. By the same logic I can claim the universe was created last Thursday and all your memories of it were created with it. It is so because I say so. Google "scientific method".

  • holy crap dude. what part by now is so hard to understand. your flipping insane. and btw, i bet you think global warming doesnt exist either. ps: the only absolute in physics is that there is no absolute, and no unified theory. bye now, go learn some things and don't bother to keep harassing me jack twit....

  • No, I know that global warming exists. Whether it's actually causing as much trouble as it's being said is still debated. I am not harassing you, you are free to ignore me. I am trying to discuss sensibly, because I see it as a challenge, albeit not a really rewarding one. Btw, 3.2kw=4.3hp, I doubt any common 25cc engine reaches 2hp. And at 120A voltage comes out at 36.66 volts. After the inverter the amperage will be much lower and every single conversion wastes some power to heat.

  • go away

  • Very mature...

  • no. you are just annoying as heck. probably have a dozen arguments going on over the exact same crap that your right and the rest of the world is wrong. now bye

  • tell that to iceland. there entire auto base doesn't use oil. you need electricity to build the machinery. dont know much about tool & die eh? ever seen a 200 ton press workin, cause it doesn't run on gas. der

  • nice vidéos

  • Can I have the name of this song please ? THX

  • return to innocence by enigma

  • the future of aviation fuel is in hydrogen. boeing just flew its first manned plane a few weeks ago using hydrogen fuel cells. no gas, and no problems. lookup HHO. not hard to understand it.

  • be hopeful, theres still undiscovered oil, and they have made lots of energy efficient smaller planes, i think they will still be around for awhile

  • More and more fuel efficient planes are being developed.

  • in the cross winds if it landing straight the wind would blow it sideways, so if you face the wind doesn't have much of an effect

  • Un viento cruzado del cojon ah!!!

  • second to last one is not a crosswind. That video is so old and not true. it is a landing at Kai tak and the pilot just took the turn to wide. the last one is just well, not relating.

  • its not that he took the turn to wide its how they had to come in at that airport

  • No, It is not a crosswind. I know for a fact. It is a landing at KAI TAK VHHX Hong kong It is not a crosswind

  • i didnt say it was a crosswind buddy

  • Yes, but at Kai Tak they have to turn to runway 13 at the last minute. It is not a straight approach. Look videos up on it. THey don't come in straight.

  • i know its not a straight in..it jsut seemed that you were trying to bad mouth the pilot

  • The song is Enigma´s "return to innocence"

  • what's the name of the song??

  • I thought some of the larger Boeing airplanes were able to rotate the rear landing gear for extreme landing angles like this. Didn't notice any rotation of the wheels in the above landings though.

  • The wheels can't rotate. They are only positioned in a downwards position so it can counter the crosswind landing. You usually try to center yourself anyway by touching down.

  • In the first clip, what is the little thing hanging off the end of the tail?

  • It is a cone used to gather data on air pressure. In the vid it is retracted, but when they use it, they extend it to get data from "clean" air...

  • Amazing landings, thanks a lot, favorited!

    5 stars!

  • wow thats amazing

  • omg! THESE GUYS ARE LANDING ON 45 DEGREE ANGLES!!!! WOW!

  • I want to know what the music too!

  • I uunderstand the first was a test flight, but what is hanging off the tail?

  • umm, I want to know what they used to clean the seats after those landings.
