How to fly an A350 over the North Pole

@lauvstad Жыл бұрын

Looks like the star you were seeing was Sirius, which is the brightest star in the sky. The reason it was blinking or pulsing in different colors is due to light of different wavelengths (or colors) being refracted in different ways through the turbulent layers of the atmosphere lower down. You can tell it is Sirius because you can see the constellation Orion up to the right from it, and the characteristic 3 stars in Orion’s Belt points roughly at Sirius.

I flew this same route with KLM from NRT (Tokyo) to AMS (Schiphol) on the 4th of November. It was the first flight of KLM on this route in 20 years. The northern lights, the Ice it was all visible. The flight time Was 14 hours and I experienced 2 sunrises in one flight! Lucky to be on that flight again in January.

Very nice video. My dad was a DC-10 and MD-11 captain at Finnair. He flew that polar route during the cold war (he is old now, 80 years old). My mom was a stewardess at Finnair so I literally owe that company my life 😂 I'm obviously biased but I always thought Finnish pilots are the best, on the roads or in the airs. Respect to all pilots though, it's mad and awesome job.

I can still remember the early 1980's when several European airlines were flying to Japan across the North Pole and via Anchorage. Lufthansa's 747-200 were even equipped with special polar protection suits for the crew to put on in case of an emergency landing or ditching in that icey region. Today, that sounds pretty weird, but back in those days it was a more adventurous flight than it is today. But the unique views out of the aircraft's windows were the same spectacular ones like in this video. At this point the adventure still remains the same like 40 years ago.

I remember when I was a kid in the eighties, Finnair used the same polar route with DC-10-30ER, N345HC, to avoid costly Russian airspace tariffs and mandatory stop at Soviet Union which were required at that time. It was also the very first first true non-stop flight service between Europe and Japan and foundation of Finnair's success in Europe-Asia traffic for small country and airline. N345HC was supposed to enter at service as OH-LHC but ended for US company Wells Fargo and was long term leased. Lease also required that Finnair pilots had to have FAA licences instead of europeans. ER-option from McDonnell Douglas was extremely important for Finnair, but it also prevented Finnair to come one of few customers for Boeing 747SP which was also in the table as one of options at that time.

BOAC had a flight in 1966 that was brought down by turbulence, a tragedy. that plane and planes in general at that time did not look much different from the ones these days

@@dreamthedream8929 They actually do look similiar, but in reality they are different. For example, modern airliners like the 787 and A350 use a more optmized wing flex, which means that they can handle bigger turbulences with pretty much no structural damage

This right here is one of the reasons why I am an aviation enthusiast. What an incredible machine the A350 is, to be able to take us over some of the most remote, but also some of the most beautiful areas of the planet. Not only that, we get to see natural celestial phenomena such as the Aurora Borealis, as well as celestial bodies in the sky. This is a very well produced video. Well done.

I took the Finnair A350 NRT-HEL recently, it's nice both in economy and business. The attendants are also liberal with food and drink, which makes the economy flight seem more luxurious than the price suggests. It's the best plane to fly on, not tiring at all.

Hi Gabriel, Your words “super cool” covers it all. It is amazing that the airline was so gracious to allow Flightradar 24 into the cockpit of an A350! They must have checked you, personally, with a fine tooth comb! Believe me I am an avid viewer of your flights, but this one was a notch above. Many thanks to all involved who made this happen.

@fireflyrobert Жыл бұрын

It's amazing how this type of navigation is now routine and all done on two engines. Prior to inertial navigation the navigator would be beavering away at his table plotting a position every 20 minutes or so. I joined BOAC in 1970 and in those days there was a periscopic sextant which was deployed in the same manner as a periscope on a submarine. I never did any transpolar flying but it must be an interesting experience both then and now.
