Windshear on short landing!

This Boeing 737-500 is on final approach to ENRO, Roros in Norway. Strong gusts but CAVOK. It is a tricky approach with only around 5000 ft long runway, which you should try yourself in flightsim! Here is some info on the small airport, http://www.onesky.com/airports/Norway/Roeros.html

tama78, I`m afraid not, since the -400 has two overwing exits, and the -500 as you can see in the video, has only one!

[tamagotchi78]

nope its a 300 version

[onesiteonly]

@tamagotchi78 Braathens never had the -300, only 500`s/400 and 200`s

[onesiteonly]

@tamagotchi78 The 500 is actually around 10 inches shorter than the 300. The 500 is the shortest in the 737 family as well.

That being said, Braathens never had the 300, only the 500 and the longer version 400.

i think the format of this video makes that 737 look short and fat.......i'd think a 200 is that short, not a 500

[onesiteonly]

The dash 200 has completely diiferent enginges, Pratt % Whitney - very slim engine. This is CFM-56, a more powerful and larger engine.

I think you are confusing 'windshear' with 'crosswind'. If there was windshear, the pilots would have executed 'TOGA' (full power take off/go-around) to escape the sudden and potentially fatal change in relative airspeed over the wing.

[nvstewart]

yeah, no windshear here

[blaster915]

that has got to be the CUTEST little 737 EVER! ^^

(Im a plane person what can i say?)

@cinkmoot ironically, if you put a fat chick in this video, she'd probably look skinny :p no offense to fat chicks though

[robinbrannon1]

reverse thrust, spoilers and brakes asap!!!!

[RJpilot700]

I like how theirs a crazy crosswind and a cessna is holding short ready to go hahah

[inbound1000]

@onesiteonly short..that landing looked long to me...

[streetstream]

@onesiteonly actually, i think the 737-100 is shorter.

[JonB83]

@greatbigdane unless it was increased performance windshear or the change was not very much.

[montbard]

That took the crap out of me!

[northernstudio]

damn, 0:30=0:50 looked like a model airplane...

Oh i just love norwegian airports, but i've only been at Gardermoen and Værnes!
