I really hope it was a surprise and he wasn't expecting it 🥹

@@Ratpack81 His retirement, lol!? Just kidding!

Emotional just watching it 😭

I saw a video of another A350 Pilot retirement. He knew what was going to happen because he has to inform the passengers that the plane is not on fire xD@@Ratpack81

Heres something you may find interesting. :) The name of my country has nothing to do with the interesting and delicious bird ''turkey'', well let me explain. :) Name of my country has always been Turkiye, that is Turk-iye, where the -iye suffix means ''land of/belonging to''... ...just like the Latin suffix -ia in such countries as Latv-ia, Roman-ia, Eston-ia, Austr-ia, Austral-ia etc etc. Another example; decades ago Czechoslovakia Republic changed it's name to Czech Republic and a few years ago changed that to Czechia (that is Czech-ia). Anyways, most likely the Latin -ia suffix was derived from the Turkish version -iye, as Turkish is much much older. Because in old times people of different languages could only pronounce it as their languages allowed them, we got various differences in spelling like Turchia (in Italian), Turquie (in French) and Turkey (in English) all trying to resemble the pronounciation of ''Turk-ia'' thus Turkiye. Mind you this was way BEFORE the animal we currently know as 'turkey'' was found by the europeans when they explored the north americas.... ...they came across the bird and thought it was a specie of the fowl/chicken they had been buying from the country of Turkiye at the time, so they named the bird ''Turkey Fowl'' meaning ''Turkish Chicken''..... ....just like how a dog breed is known as German Shepherd (because it's from Germany), Rhodesian Ridgeback (because it's from Rhodesia), American Bulldog, British Terrier, Greek Harehound etc etc. In time you don't get to call the Greek Harehound as simply as ''Greek''; or you don't call the British Terrier as ''British''; or the German Shepherd as ''German'', but in time the Turkish Fowl started to be called just ''turkey'', and has been going on for hundreds of years. Now in 2023, this is causing confusion, especially when we have people across the world unable to point to their OWN country on the atlas, this ''confusion over the naming'' needed to be corrected. So my country decided to rectify this confusion that has been going on for so long and corrected the name in other languages to Türkiye, which it always was, we basically didn't change the name of our country, we changed the mistake made in the English language. : ) So, there's some tid bit information for you to have a great day, if you read upto this point you have a great night too, ohh just have a wonderfull life. : ) Best wishes. ;)

I fist read this as "cat" and was all 😡😡😡

@@Bullieghi gave that to your sister too.

First

​@@mehere8299😅😅😅

​@@micco6020 First what?

Yeah i know right it almost looked like some sort of move they would do at an air show. wouldnt of been nice as a passenger on that one

"Wow" is right.

They really messed up that bulked landing procedure.

The Japanese pilot did that because people didn't applaud when he landed.😅

@@atom608 I don't like flying and take off is definitely my least favorite part. Touching the tarmac and feeling that relief for a moment only for then to feel the engines kick back into action...pure torture.

you can tell the same about every single bus driver

I had that happen to me once at Narita while on board a JAL 787… it feels incredible and I was able to get it all on camera 😀

Steep climb because they buggered up the go-around.

@@EdOeuna Nor really, that wasn’t a go around that was a bulked landing! Manual application of full thrust, hold the aircraft attitude, accelerate to vref then slowly rotate to 15 degrees nose up. Wait a second or two and press TOGA, go around procedure from that point. Looks like it was flown perfectly to me.

@@greglawrance6086 - reread what you wrote and see why you’re wrong. It is a baulked landing with a go around, but they buggered up the go-around portion by flying level for a few seconds before the ridiculous pull up manoeuvre.

@EdOeuna Standard baulked landing procedure for the 777 is to maintain aircraft attitude, accepting runway touchdown if necessary, aggressively apply maximum thrust, slowly rotate at vref to achieve a 15 degree pitch angle. Pause and then press TOGA. After that convert to a standard go around. TOGA on the 777 is inhibited after touchdown hence manual thrust. The accelerate level to vref is to prevent a tail strike. 15 degrees is used to prevent speed runaway with full thrust applied. As I said, looked pretty good to me.

😂😂

Lol

Feel bad for the next aircraft 😢

lol

lol

Monsieur, are you sure you didn't mean an invitation?

Windy AF.

What

Except they buggered the procedure and that sudden pitch up was a panicked response to accelerating towards a flap limit speed.

@@EdOeuna that is not the reason i believe. i think it was because of them trying to get out of a tailstrike position, since 777's are really long. (I might be wrong)

@@nathonn9334 - the rotation following a balled landing is exactly the same as for a take off. Rotate towards 15°. Nothing to do with preventing tail strikes. Just terrible pilot ability.

For the passengers AND the pilots! 😬😰😳🛬

Nah.

It’s a constant wind. It’s pretty easy to deal with in large aircraft like this. Worst case is you land in the crab and let the wheels bare the brunt. It appears they also forget to put ailerons into wind which is why the plane kept bouncing and the left wing kept lifting.

@@EdOeuna as usual, I agree with your assessment.

@@rtbrtb_dutchy4183 - two professional pilots agree. No surprise there!

Fedex 80

and no FAT FAT paychecks

@@verifiedtoxicangel2411 But the hours are great!

I am not a pilot, so what was going on with the helicopter clip? Thanks.

@@bikenyan autorotation is what you do if you have an engine failure (most common reason) in a helicopter. The basics is that you descend quickly so that the airflow starts going up through the blades causing them to windmill and keep spinning. You then use the energy in the blades to stop your descent and land, without needing any engine power. Of course this being a Robinson the amount of energy stored in the rotor is not much. Hence the horn telling the pilot the rotor rpm had dropped below safe limit. It sounds scary and crazy, but you only need a small patch of land to put it down safely, whereas in an aeroplane you have to hit the ground at speed and hope for the best. Or if you’re in the US, land on a freeway and make everyone get out of your way 😂

@@MeppyMan That has to be a scary moment in a helicopter pilot's training. At least the first time.

@@soaringvulture absolutely. I was never fully comfortable with autos during my initial flight training. Even though I could do them and knew what I was doing. I had to practice a fair bit to get rid of the fear factor. I was quite young at the time though.

That's interesting.

Why would it not fly back to Munich? A firm landing is just a firm landing - not incident.

Better a bit firm than hopping like the AF….

If that were the case he wouldn't have botched the landing.

@@theHDRflightdeck Just drove it in, but that would have been MUCH better.

what?@@chrisschack9716

You're so funny and original...not. 🥱

Lmao have your ever thought of making a career in comedy?

Dude, I'm an A&P at a flight school that has 18 R44's.......we do hundreds of autos a month. It's a standard EP. What are you supposed to do? Not train?

@@aikimechanic just giving you a hard time my man 😉. I say that because Robinsons have attained a bit of a reputation as a widow maker

@@jim2laneRobinsons are cheap, hence their popularity. But I have to agree, it’s not a model I’d get back in to fly again. And it’s good they’re practicing, as it’s especially important to get it right in a Robbi.

@@aikimechanic i'm fine with the autorotation. it's the "robinson" part that's a bit worrying...

were you just born yesterday?!?!

Thanks for the giggle.

It was also smoother than 90%+ of other Robinson's "landings" that are also called crashes...

Superb? Not from my comfy chair.

That was anything but superb. He definitely got a call.

They should have gone around, they started porpiosing.

That was a close call that flight was lucky it didn't end up like FedEx flight 80

Not enough into wind aileron. Auto thrust automatically reduces thrust on touchdown. Correct technique is to use rudder to straighten the aircraft to the runway, introduce and HOLD into wind aileron and flare a little more due to the lateral rotation.

It was more of PIO event. Watch how much elevator deflection there is just about 10 feet from touchdown. Plus he didn't maintain upwind aileron post touchdown.

@@chrisschack9716 They should stick to selling onions

You are crazy. Pilots are never close to crying. I stopped crying 3 months after I was born and never cried again.

You better see a doctor then

@@brocanova oh no, you fixed me. Such a harsh response and it made me cry.

@@rtbrtb_dutchy4183lol. I think that’s just because you’re Dutch. 😂 I cry that I don’t get to fly anymore! 🚁

@@MeppyMan well, how do we get you to fly again? Let’s work on that. Are you on the east coast?

And what to do when you hear that horn go off mid flight lol.

Training flight whether planned that way or not.

Yes that was an F22 or some other overpriced piece of American junk I seem to remember

@@billb7876 lol calling the best fighter in the world a "piece of American junk". It brang a smile to my face =)

I remember the time a girl fell out of that Korean airliner, was covered in fire foam, and then rub over and killed by a fire truck.

The pilot messed up the go-around and probably had the PM screaming “speed” at him before the pull up.

The tiles of the videos on this channel are usually inaccurate and meaningless. I could speculate about how the pilot might have mishandled the airplane, but the specifics don't really matter. Tough winds and less than adroit handling lead to a less than pretty arrival. It's not like long-haul pilots get a lot of practice handling the airplane these days.

It's an opportunity for aviation specialists - and the occasional know-it-all - to display their immense knowledge in the comments section.
