  • Here in the UK most airlines still let kids have a look at the flightdeck when the aircraft is stationary usually when disembarking, of course obviously not the same when the aircraft is in flight :/

  • I might already have commented ont his video, but this can be highly annoying when it happens. Correcting it means wasting runway space, and if you just let it go by correcting it at full/half throttle, you'll be adding a lot of stress to the nose wheel and rudder system. Basically, it just sucks in more than one way :/

  • cool

  • Did you just bleep out cursing? For god sake this retarded mongol sensoring.

  • To me a loud BLEEP is more offensive and annoying than the word "Shit". No censoring!

  • Lol "Ahh Sh*t"!!!

  • I got to go inside the cockpit of a C17 inflight and peek into the HUD and talk to the crew, while flying over the Alps! This was very cool! I was being redeployed back to Germany from Macedonia. This was in 1998.

  • i was one of the last kids able to view the flight from the cockpit, one of my earliest memories, i think this is what inspired me to be a pilot

  • Guys, what is that voice saying "on runway 07 R"?? Sounded like a GPS or something!

  • I hate when this happens too.

  • a34"o"-300 is an airbus :)

  • lol ahhh shit right on cue

  • He said "Ah shucks" not shit!

  • @iworkwithdave Yeah, that doesn't take away from the the fact the the majority of professional pilots DO talk like sailors when in the confines of that cockpit.

  • beim starten eben neu ausrichten ;) ned schlimm

  • i lol'd when the pilot was like "ahhh S**t!" haha :D perfection isn't a bad thing though :)

  • I love the autopilot panel. That's awesome.

  • When flying ........perfection saves your life.

  • @andgate2000 cockpit perfection and details to the airplane does work

  • No one likes working at night time, but when I used to work as a line service tech working at night wasn't so bad because I liked looking at all the lights on the run way.

  • I couldn't hear much talking. What was that beeping sound?

  • @sweiland75 the beeping sound was a swear word being censored xD

  • @TheYozStudios oh those Americans and their stupid censorship

  • @GoingToBeAPilot1 Im 14 too, I think it depends on how busy the crew are and yes I was inflight when they let me in.

  • @dnhug Not really, I once went inside the cockpit with the crew, I Just asked the stewardess politely and she told the pilot and he agreed.

  • @Dominoes911 How old are you? I'm 14 if I asked nicely and politely do you think they'd let me in? And were you inflight when they let you in?

  • couldnt hear shit...

  • i dont get this .

  • @swtrooper11 If the pilot does not line up on the center line in most cases the tower will not clear them for takeoff. It doesn't have to be perfect but they cannot deviate way off the center line. They can ask them to taxi to the next turnoff and try again. Why? Takeoff weight determines how much runway they need and in case of an aborted takeoff you don't want the liability coming back on the air traffic controller. Also traffic flow, other aircraft landing on same runway.

  • @gritzngravee oh thanks. One more quesiton. If an easy plane want to take off ( eg cessna 172 , which doesnt require full runway ) how can he ask for half runway use ? i mean how can he make the taxi shorters and how to ask to use only few meters from the runway?

  • @swtrooper11 Air traffic controllers have personal discretion, if it doesn't compromise safety and traffic flow they will more than likely fulfill a request. If you ask for less runway because your calculated speed only requires a certain length they will grant you permission.

  • @swtrooper11 You request for an intersecting takeoff. However, keep in mind that the three most useless things a pilot can have is fuel on the ground, altitude above you and runway behind you.

  • @gritzngravee Huh? Really? I've never heard of this and I've been flying professionally for a Loooooong time. Please explain....... is this an ICAO thing?

  • @robflys That's what my mothers friend told me, he's a retired 737 US Airways Cpt. Maybe I misinterpreted what he was saying. What kind of jets do you fly? Going to get my PPL.

  • That is me when playing FSX!

  • wer hat das lineup gemacht? du oder dein kollege?

  • what happens if the pilot forgot to turn off the passenger speakers?

  • but how do passengers get in the cockpit?

  • @markallayban ..well..they dont. crew only.

    cheers mate

  • @dnhug a few years ago they could :) I went in the cockpit of a BA 734

    after it had landed though. now? no chance!

  • @dnhug I was at 90's when I was a kid they allowed to go see thee cockpit :)

  • @dnhug they did before 2001

  • @dnhug which means you are a crew?

  • @benjaav07 yes indeed. Cheers,dominic

  • @dnhug So you were the first officer?

  • Comment removed

  • @dnhug Many years ago they used to take children into the cockpit for a few moments to check it out... not anymore tho :( I feel sorry for all the kids that miss out on that experience.

  • @grindsmygearsAU agreed. Thats why i always take the kids to the front when were at the gate, thats mostly the only chance to get a blink into the flightdeck.Especialy when flying to the US, no flightdeck visits allowed at all when inflight or running engines etc.

    Glad they let us Crew enter whenever we want to ,lol

    dont we all remember our first inflight cockpit visit..?`Ahh the goodtimes..

    cheers man,dom

  • @dnhug I do, I was about 4... I was mesmerized.

  • @dnhug Ah we do! It must have been before 2001, when I was like 6 or 7 years old when I got to visit a MD82's cockpit inflight. At that time I was so small that the cockpit almost felt big. A couple of years a go when I visited a cockpit of a 757 when on ground it struck to me how small the cockpit really was!

  • @grindsmygearsAU

    I was one of those 'kids' whose got in the cockpit. I was about 15-16 yr old back then. I lets the others go first and went last one, and talked with the captain and co-pilot about the radars and other instruments. Captain asked "How its possible that you know so much about the instruments?". Told him that I've been interested flying since I was 2-3yr old. :) He asked me to stay in on a jumpseat all the way to the landing and rolling to terminal. Accepted!!!

  • @Randomnick123 :( Way to make me jealous. :P but that would have been an awesome experience that you will never EVER forget :D

  • @grindsmygearsAU

    I hear ya.. It WAS amazing experience! The touchdown and shaky rolling thru strip is a one that you feel different than in passenger side. And how the horizon disappears in couple of seconds in the last flare. BTW, I've been in a charter flight that had emergency landing in both directions, we were going to have holiday, and coming back from it. Heart attacks in both cases. We made landings on Istanbul and Warsaw. Huh? :)

  • @Randomnick123 Heart attack in both cases.. Did they make it? My last one died underneath my hands,damn i felt shit for two weeks.

    Hope you could enjoy the holidays and (dont get me wrong) the extra landings :)

    Cheers Guys, thx for watching btw, dom

  • @dnhug

    The lady that ended up in Warsaw survived, but I dont know anything about gent who left the plane in the Istanbul. Hope he is ok.

    Ya, enjoyed the trip but ofcourse you'll hope that everything turns good for these ppl.

    Sorry to hear that incident you had. You did everything that you possible could. Dont feel bad about yourself. Everyone would do their best.

  • @grindsmygearsAU i was one of them in 2003 i was departing from Fort Lauderdale, Florida to Boston and i had the first seat in the whole airplane and the pilot came up to me and asked if i wanted to go into the cockpit and ofc i said yes :D

  • @grindsmygearsAU Hehe, when I was little, I remember when I went into the cockpit along with others for a peek :) Good times... :D

  • @grindsmygearsAU Not that many years ago. My 6yo son and I visited the cockpit for about 20 minutes on a flight between Melbourne (Australia) and Christchurch (New Zealand) late January 2001. 9/11 changed all that. :( The pilot even switched off the auto-pilot and changed altitude by a few hundred meters as a little demonstration.

  • @grindsmygearsAU they let me in the cockpit in every flight when i was a kid until 9/11

    it was GREAT

  • @grindsmygearsAU i got to get into the cockpit:

  • @grindsmygearsAU I was lucky enough to get into a 767 cockpit on a Canada3000 (long gone carrier now) flight on a trip from Toronto Int'l, Canada to Heathrow, London England since the flight attendant noticed my dad had crew tags on his carry on from a cargo company he worked for. as soon as i got up there we broke through the clouds as we flew over Greenland. once in a lifetime moment that I'll never forget

  • @grindsmygearsAU Yeah, I remember the last time i got to do that. I was eleven years old, and travelling from Amsterdam to Houston with a KLM 747. This was about 2 months before 9/11, so i consider myself pretty lucky. Come to think of it, the flight attendant that escorted me was pretty hot. Haha :)

  • @grindsmygearsAU me to!! on september 10th 2001, i was one of the last kids to ever go into the cockpit of an airliner, i was a happy child

  • @grindsmygearsAU I feel sorry for all the people on the flight that crashed (Flight 593), because kids were allowed in.

  • @johnsill1 No, its because pilot let kids control the aircraft.

  • @SexyToshi Well, yes maybe but for whatever reason door should stay closed in flight for non-crew.

  • @SexyToshi What is big deal if pilot let kid take aircraft for little, cant do any harm, it is not like flying space shuttle...

  • @XStarss Its a big deal because 75 people died. Families suffer too, you know.

  • @SexyToshi i dont see plane crashing here!?

  • @XStarss Of course there isn't. Because I was talking about aeroflot flight 593 @johnsill1 was talking about. No offence but did you read the comments?

  • @SexyToshi That flight had faulty autopilot, it was not child fault, it was designers fault, it would happen anyways.

  • @XStarss It didn't have faulty auto pilot, and how could you say it wasn't child's fault when child was sitting right there on pilot's seat? It was also pilot's fault for not monitoring the instruments. Yeah stupid Russians. So don't know where you're getting that information from. I think I know now that you're either TROLLING or a complete IDIOT. It's safe bet that both are true.

  • @SexyToshi yes it had, and you are idiot, i actually got info from national geographic documentary. Moving wheel should not affect autopilot (so it said in instructions, stupid French), but yet autopilot was disabled only on ailerons, and aircraft started rolling into one side (losing height) and autopilot (stupid autopilot) was trying to compensate for it by pitching nose up, hence the crash. Airbus redesigned autopilot after that, and it was not in any way child fault, it was design fault.

  • @grindsmygearsAU I still remember those days.

  • @markallayban you only have to get an observer card!!

  • He's going to loose 15eur from his paycheck, because he had to use more fuel than he planned!

  • @rkan2 lol

  • It also provides the call outs you can hear.

  • It's the OANS. Onboard Airport Navigation System. It provides the pilots with a digital map of the airfield and aircraft position. It's a tool to aid situational awareness.

  • what system calls the "on runway 07R" ?is it based on GPS?

  • @soccerguy2433 curious too

  • this is nothing compared to what is said on the bridge of cruise ships when theres many of them in one town :D

  • @NLSLproductions Probably yeah, I guess the ship's captains must be cursing all the time when entering Rotterdam or Antwerp Port

  • nbd? I do this quite frequently as many pilots will admit. Thousands and Thousands of flights each day, and very few have a guy recording them in the cockpit -_-

  • just use reverse thrust to back that bitch up, lol.

  • Comment removed

  • Well...if he's not happy, then I'm not happy...

  • this happens to the best of us...no prob...

  • I dont get what i looking at.

  • Comment removed

  • @dnhug Okay I do understand :) No probs. You too! Take care!

  • The lineup looks fine, he was unhappy about not giving it enough throttle through the turn and letting it stop halfway through.

  • Did the pilot swear?

  • 0:16 ohh *****

  • @HKS134 do you look like bin ladden?

  • Why he care to be perfect? As long as it take off safely right?

  • @ChronoShinta Yeah, on the other hand, it's an important attribute of a pilot to strive for perfection while knowing that you're never going to get there.

  • that happens to me sometimes haha...

  • I hate airbuses but, what was that audible position thing that told them the runway theyre on? Gangster!

  • @beatchildproductions Why do you hate airbuses?

  • @beatchildproductions It was the RAAS (Runway Awareness Advisory System)

  • Vom 343 auf den 346 umgestiegen nehme ich an haha.

  • how can you ever be unhappy in the cockpit seat of an a340?

  • that guy is a perfectionist :D

  • @Flugfritze96 No, he is only German!

  • Just correct it on your way down the runway trust me its fine it does not have to be dead center perfect.

  • THis issue wasnt that he wasnt lined up correctly, its that the plane stopped in the middle of a turn, meaning much more thrust to get it moving again due to the front wheel being turned.

  • Landing on the centerline isn't a problem. The reason for the 3 foot offset is a safety measure for a plane that may be landing. If a plane is on finals and you are sitting on runway, your lights will blend in with the runway lights. Of course, ATC should never allow two planes on the runway but mistakes happen.

  • What is the system with the female voice indicating the runway?

  • @Misteroriginalvideos yes but the cockpit is so far up and the nose wheel is so far back you dont really know if its on the yellow line imo

  • Pilot training tells me that you are not to line up directly over the line. Instead, you should be about 3 feet from the centerline.

  • @Einzee why? due to the runway lightings? then what if we land a pland then the nose hits the centerline exactly?

  • @fenderstratocaster96 if the plane lands on the centreline exactly the following happens: you get a slight "Kerthump kerthump" repeating noise as the nose gear runs over the runway lighting housing casings. and: nothing else. It's not unsafe in any way. just a little less smooth.

  • Dude, if that's all you have to complain about you'd better quit flying.

  • @HKS134 Jews from Israel will soon bomb you into the sand and you cannot stop them. While it is happening your President Camel Dick will run and hide.

  • @madisonelectronic Wtf dude you got serous problems :) did I swear israel here no? btw fuck israel

  • @Misteroriginalvideos at holding point mark i use just a little bit of force to follow that line that comes from the taxiway onto the center of the runway. but as the line gets more and more curved i start rotating the joystick more and more... this happened alot to me too when i only started with FSX :P

  • hahahahahaha!

  • Awesome! LOL

  • don't trust a pilot who says "shit happens".. id like to think when the plane is in danger of crashing a pilot would still feel like he has 100% control over the situation instead of leaning back in his chair and saying "shit happens".

  • thats swiss perfection for ya

  • perfectionism is in pilots blood =D starts even wayyyyyyyy back as a teenager during flight training in single props when you want your 1st approach and land to be solid or even more frightening your 1st ever taxi =P making sure your nose wheel never escapes that centerline ;-) thanks for this great clip dom!

  • @HKS134 : if i want to go to the flightdeck, i will.

    all access for the crew mate, cheers,dom

  • @dnhug Are you cabin crew or one of the pilots?

  • look like a good lineup 2 moi

  • Why wasn't he happy?

  • @ioannis21shum Pilots tend to be perfectionists. I'm still working on my line-ups, he may be new to the plane type he's flying and may have yet to acclimate.

  • LOL

  • first,on behalf of a Hong Kong People,Thanks for flying in Hong Kong

    second,,,Night Hong Kong is really hard to lind up correctly,i usually s*** on my skill in FSX=.=

    Hope you can fly again to Hong Kong

    (???????9,wind 060 dregrees with 6 knots,clr for T/O,runway 07R)

  • haha lol, were you laughing when he said this : D ?

  • at around 00:35 what was that "on runway o7r?" callout

  • @fsxAIRLINEguy its the runway awareness and advisory system!

  • I've been reading everyone's comments. It's not that he didn't line up on the centerline...the issue was that there wasn't enough momentum to complete the turn. Afterward, you can hear power added in order to continue the turn. So, the turn was PERFECT, just not enough momentum to complete it :-)

  • LOL I love it!!!

  • lmao...

  • @Misteroriginalvideos Oh I thought you were talking about a landing turn like at Kai Tak. My bad.

  • @Misteroriginalvideos Many of the planes in FSX don't have strong enough rudder response. I increase the "rudder scalar" number in the aircraft.cfg file to give more rudder response. The worst is the FreeSky/Opensky planes, their rudders barely move.

  • nice to see that tha happens real life pilots too! lol

  • LMAO!! How natural isnt it :) Love the Beep sound , hahaha

  • @Misteroriginalvideos its tricky indeed, but when you see Professionals do it, its like everything in Life : make it look easy :)

    Well, as soon as your nosewheel has passed the centerline (on the 343), you can full tilt and it should be on centerline. Usualy,lol

    cheers, thx again for watching, dom

  • subscribed :D keep up the good vids

  • @SpartanStig117 thanks bro, i will try ;)

  • which airline?

  • @A319A320A330AB SWISS international.

    cheers

  • what's the issue? Just correct it right?

  • @AltAirPilot517 yeah more or less, he corrected the rest during takeoff :)

    cheers man

  • did he get stuck half way through the turn?

  • @efastMixer not enough initial thrust, and the lineup wasnt realy on the centerline.

    As he said, sh** happens :)

    cheers

  • ahhh Scheiße :D die zensierung versteht man :D XDD wäre geil die callouts in der Cessna zu haben ;D

  • haha

  • Oh man, I definitely remember these types of mistakes back in my F/O years. Without the new cameras that are now provided for pilots, it was unimaginably hard to track and stay in the centerlines (you'd be surprised). Back in the day, you'd have to pick a spot in the cockpit glass to mark the spot which would represent centerline. But thanks to some recent addition of cameras, it's possible to see the nose wheel and track the centerline with no difficulties.

  • lmao!

  • @Cook1993 :) thanks man

  • I love how he grunts in disbelieve and irritation, right before the sh*t flies out of his mouth... He probably has thousands of hours on type, yet slips up. Humans ey? Thanks for sharing.

  • @Zacherius8 Hes a great guy indeed. He flew the 747 for Swissair for years, and its always great to fly with him again.

    Well, as we say in Aviation : "Shift happens" :)

    greets mate, thx for watching!

  • What is he saying???

  • @PCgam3r14 universal language mate : "Sh.....t " :)

    cheers, dom

  • @dnhug

    Also so wie ichs kenn hat er auf gut Deutsch gesagt Scheiße?! Oder :D

  • @Micha4277 in der Tat :)

    Mfg, dom

  • lmao dont worry captain! s*it happens xD anyway great vid!

  • @Luc1590 ShiFt happens :)

  • @dnhug Hey man, I've seen almost all of your noseview videos and I must say they are amazing in quality and skill! I have a quesiton though. When your taxiing, what aircraft lights are on at the time, during day and night, what speed do you normally taxi at, and are the flaps down at all during taxi. Lastly, when you're holding short of the runway what lights go on before and after your lined up with the centerline and what is the flap position during takeoff? Thank You!

    -FSXman1000

  • Well dom... you're amazing!

    i always dreamt of being a pilot...but i had to much to learn!

    and the study is quite expensive!

    keep up the good work!

  • @afcaj0od Thank you very much indeed!

    Its a long way, but anyone can do it :)

    Greetings my friend, dom

  • That was the cockpit of Swiss A340-300?

  • @eroen45 yes indeed.

    greetings, dom

  • @dnhug And you want to be a pilot of an A340-300 Swiss intl ?
