This airport, I have read, has a special pilot rating because it uses a much steeper glideslope than a standard ILS. I think a normal one is 3% grade, and this has a 5%. That doesn't sound to much greater, but it is. They are landing faster and harder than normal.
God almighty, I've read some crap on bootube recently, but this takes the cake!
London City Airport, surrounded by heavy urban sprawl and a lot of tall buildings in the immediate vicinity of the 'strip, plus a lot of clutter in your eyeline on approach - not an ideal situation. It's therefore not rocket science to figure that you need a higher rate of descent on approach to allow you to pass the threshold at the right height and speed; +8 kts and you're off the end, -6 kts, you won't get there!
@theblacksheep1000 Yeah dude, you know this is in London, not in the USA. There is no such thing as an "interstate" nor even a "highway". What you see there on the aaproach is Connaught Bridge, it's the A1020 and it's a local road. There is nothing wrong with roads below the approach. Planes very rarely crash. Cars crash much more frequently on said roads.
@harold562 Hi..not all is a simulator! Look my landing with Antonov in Dinslaken (think this is in no programm) I like to fly in real life, I have no flightsimulator :)
@Miruxor lol, yeah i know it aint lol, it an awesome sight still, reminds me the why i wanted to go to the airport where i lived at nights and spectate from the roof. sadly us doesnt allow spectators around the airport, so i havent been able to see one at night around here
Regardless if it was visual or not, aim for the numbers does not give you license to come in like he did. It was still good landing, but too low for my tastes. engsync1 is dead on btw, PAPI's are secondary to ILS approach, and since we didnt see the bugs, we have no idea,
This is VFR. PAPIs and the ILS are a nice backup, yet when the runway is in sight and you are cleared for visual approach, you are free to exercise good pilotage. (what a thrilling airport this must be to get into and out of, reminds me of the former Meigs Field here in the US)
Yup i'm quite upset as you can tell by all my swearing in my last post and the steam coming from my ears. Good observation skills kiddo. Listen son, go find something better to do, hope that cheers you up little tyke.
lol you're the one who keeps resonding... people who get upset don't usually have "lol" in their reply. Anyway, if you are so sure the last 300 ft of the approach was way to low, why are you wasting your time on youtube, why don't you go out and instruct or make use of your airline transport pilot's license as you seem to know everything.
Apparently all you 2000 hour+ instructors out there in youtube land have nothing better to do than critique people on the internet. Good job. I'm sure this guy posted this to be critiqued to hell. Find something better to do.
@mmanna82 I know you said this a long time ago, but I just read it. Wanted to say " Well Said." You hit the nail on the head and your reply should be re posted on so many sights here on you tube. I have thousands of hours, have flown over 45yrs, yet, I have so many you tube experts tell me how to fly, etc. Wish I could buy you lunch. Have a great day and ' Peace Be With You.'
@CaptainArt777 Thank God there's at least one other person out there with common sense lol. It's amazing how many people get courage behind a screen but in person have no back bone at all. Anyway happy flying and clear skies to you!
you can't trust the PAPI lights at London City, as I found out on my 3rd Go-around there, I was on a pam-pam-pam call because of low fuel on by 4th attempt.
Uh, the PAPIs are red because if you follow them to the ground you'll land 1000 feet behind the threshold. Below 200 feet you usually just ignore them. I can't believe you that any certified pilot would be unable to land without a PAPI indication.
Sounds like you need to take a checkride to recertify. Shouldn't take 3 attempts to fly a steeper than normal approach..And I think you mean "pan-pan" chief.
ok i guess the VASI must be fucked up then.....this is why we have accidents kids....its a citation, you only need about 1800 ft to get down and stopped....no reason to drag it in like that.
It's a PAPI and there's nothing wrong with it. Yes there is a reason to take it down quicker, London city has a 5.5 degree approach, due to its location.
PAPIS are for visual approaches, the pilot may have been making an instrument approach. Hard to believe, but the ILS glide slope and PAPIS do not always bring you into the touch down zone at exactly the same spot, they are more than often not harmonized.
@AntC1981 Also if you carry on descending at the rate the PAPIs are telling you to, you will crash into the ground even with flare (due to London City's steep gradient approach). The pilot needs to come in at a lower angle when going over the runway threshold, this shows up as 4 red but is safer as long as the approach is made following PAPIs up until that point.
@AntC1981 Yes ofcourse I know you need to flare on any approach, sorry if you misunderstood me but why are you being such a prick about it. Its just USUALLY the PAPIs remain 2 red 2 white until you pass them. At LONDON CITY they will be 4 red for longer. Stop acting like you are god's gift to the world. Lol of course you flare, I mean that before you flare the pilot needs to lessen the approach angle at London City
@malmo66 Yeah and everyone knows the descent rate/angle of approach needs to be lessened. At ANY airport, not just London City. Even so, you're stating the obvious to me and I've no idea why.
@AntC1981 I am not stating the obvious. I am saying that the changing of approach gradient is different at London City to other airports. It is not just the traditional flare. If you don't understand then just leave it.
Did you know that there are differences in approach? Clearly not... *sigh*
Do you use that kind of language when you give checkrides? I hope I never have you as a TCE down at FSI (or wherever you teach). For a 35+ year aviator, you should know better.
You don't talk like a 35+ year aviator, as you advertise. You speak more like a kiddy yourself. Even your name "beergut" is indicative of a younger generation. I don't know any baby boomers who use those types of expressions.
Thats okay - youtube (and the internet in general) is a wonderful utopia of a place where you can be anything you want to be.
He is not even close to being dangerously low. Heck, he's 30 ft high over the threshhold, pretty standard on a visual, and still lands 700ft down, plenty safe. Seems like a well flown approach to me!!
yeah?....they were too low at the end. You can see them dive under the glidepath quite a bit...its only a citation, thats a good way to hit something other than the runway. lesson? dont deviate from the glidepath.
The PAPI - Precision approach path indicator- depend on eye to wheel height, and the E2W height of the citation is a low figure, this making the "glidepath indicators" - as u reffered to them- indicate low.
P.S: The touchdown zone is 1000ft from the start of the usable landing surface of the runway.
When flying into london, they don't have a regular 3degree approach like most other airports. For noise abatement procedures, it is a greater value. It is 6 or so degrees if I remember well.
I think you'll find that London City Airport requires a slightly higher approach angle (5 degrees I believe, as opposed the the standard 3 degrees). This is due the obstacles on the approach path. The auther of this video is better placed to comment. Cool vid though.
It may be "Runway width illusion." A narrower- than-usual runway can create the illusion that the aircraft is at a higher altitude than it actually is.
Jeez! without looking yet, below at other comments, my first thought is, Holy Crap! that's some Steep Glidepath on this one. I'm sure it's warranted due to Obstructions, etc..
but from the first few seconds of the video, i expect to see a PAPI, Screaming "Three RED"
in that case, the nose comes up, and Go around Thrust is added, gear up, announce to Tower, "goin' 'round folks" Lol
Steep approach is the norm at London City due to it's surroundings. The descent angle is 5.5 degrees vs. a normal approach angle of 3 deg. Only certain aircraft are allowed to use this airport and only after the manufacturers demonstrate steep approaches.

you have a problem mate, Flight Simulator X has way better graphics than Pro Pilot X and Flight Simulator X is real photo scenery and plus the land shape is kinda the same to the real world! Pro Pilot is so crap jesus.. your only writing this because you cant run Flight simulator x or 2004 because your computer sucks, or either you can't afford it!

That's London city airport, in the very heart of London. Heathrow is a few miles west on London. Nice video though!!
