Spectacular Innsbruck airport approach

TUIfly flight CGN-INN on 4 Feb 08 - After aborting the first approach to rwy26 and circling over the Inn valley for some time due to Föhn winds, the pilot switched from a second rwy26 approach to a 08 approach, flying extremely low over mountainous terrain and making a very narrow circle to align with the runway. EDIT: As I learned later, most of this is the standard procedure when approaching Innsbruck's runway 08. It's nevertheless very spectacular!

Tolles Video. Der Visual 08 Approach ist wahrscheinlich der schönste, den wir hier in Österreich haben, ein echter Traum, und wirklich spektakulär!

@ThePilot314 Steep turns are usually practiced at 45 degrees. But I agree, this is certainly not a steep turn. The roll rate seemed a little quick for your average joe passenger though lol.

@ThePilot314 He was most likely talking about the accelerated roll rate.

I'm assuming the air vent was hitting the mic or the cameraman had the windows rolled down :-)
