Did the same flight three weeks later, but flew along length of Jersey from west to east

[tony74jsy]

[pWn3dbyKorshka]

@D747100 No problem. Yes I think I was lucky; they cancelled them soon after I took that flight...and a lovely flight to a lovely place it was :-)

@D747100 This was some time ago, in 2008. It was definitely Thompsonfly back then, they used to fly Coventry - Jersey until Coventry airport stopped running commercial flights. Hope this helps.

Seemed like a decent landing really. According to official figures the runway length is 5,597 feet, which is a little on the short side. The aircraft landed just in front of the touch down marker, yet still ate up nearly all the runway.

@charlieiscool1000 depends where your landing, We have 2 airports in jersey one for big planes and one for little planes.

but it's fairly easy landing over here :)

Beautiful scenery and great final

[charlieiscool1000]

seeing as the runway isnt that long wudnt u have to land very close in to make sure u wud stop in time must have used alot of reserve thrust and breaks

[jazzythegreatest]

Wow bumpy landing man

[mrbutt89]

It's more fun landing on runway 27 - and knowing you're hurtling towards the cliff edge!

[AKASHEA]

its 6000ft, what you on about ??

[roxursox059]

id say flybe!!!?!?!

[HazzaP123]

The flights are always smooth

[Cybergrycer]

At the time of posting, two airlines fly the route. Flybe goes direct using Dash 8-400 turboprop aircraft, and Air Southwest flies via Plymouth using the slightly smaller Dash 8-300.

[sprked]

As a 20 something I spent some great times with my M&D on holiday in Jersey. Landing was always an "experience" and those lap-belts on the British Caledonian Tristars got a jolly good work-out. Thanks for posting. Hearing the words "welcome to Jersey" has brought a (happy) tear to my eye. Sentimental old twit that I am. LOL

[Q300Q400]

If you think that was bad, you should fly to Jersey in the winter, when there is a strong crosswind, now THAT is fun!

[mattyg53]

A Tad Rough, but the pilot wants to get it down, i expect he used full reverse thrust and full brakes too

[FULLRICH1]

What a fine landing. Jersey runawy is quite short for landing a 737. Get it down asap is the golden rule

And also we bounced twice. I did record it but the camera fell out my hand and turned the camera off so it was deleted. =(

When we landed there we got off with sore asses. =P
