That last video just when we started seeing the ice forming the video ended so abruptly, totally left us hanging in suspense! Great conclusion to the flight. Amazing aircraft. You'll have to tell the factory that the TKS light is too bright for night approaches and to soften it up a bit.

Hello! Amazing video, accept my best regards and respect from aviator to aviator. I spent 11 years flying search and rescue in the Azores, had to fly down to minimums at night many times, but rarely did I encounter ice. It was one of the things that we were very scared of and avoided as much as we could (I flew SAR helicopters). Fly safe, love your videos.

Really cool landing! I visited Reykjavik about 3 weeks ago and had apartment exactly on extended rwy 19. I have been watching airplanes landing right over my head probably at 500 feet or less. None of them was DA62 though :-) Landing there is definitely on top of my list of landing locations!

6:10 some people not liking synthetic vision. I think it's a great tool, but some people claim it makes flying more unsafe. I have to admit, they're not entirely wrong. You have to know the limitations of the tool, otherwise using it reduces safety. It's similar to using the chart plotter on a modern boat. It allows you to avoid known shallows, but you definitely don't want to rely on it alone, since frequently, the maps are not as accurate as you'd like them to be. Other example: Tesla Autopilot. It will keep you in your lane and keep the distance to the car ahead, but there are some limitations where it fails. It works really great, until ... it doesn't. Don't get me wrong, I really like it, it does more good than harm, but some people abuse it and it introduces new failure modes into driving. Just recently, the police here caught a Tesla driver, fast asleep behind the wheel, cruising along the autobahn at 110 km/h. Honestly, I prefer this kind of news, it beats articles reporting a crash because the driver fell asleep...

Wow hats off, super pilot top approach, keep it up! But why are you doing this in the winter and not through the summer? I also love the Syntetic Vision, I can't and don't want to imagine doing such IFR approaches without it, because it gives you a good feeling and more security! 👌👍 🍀

Fantastic video again, cheers! May I ask why you switched off the TKS on the approach after you were cleared to land? Or to ask differently, why could you be certain that no more ice was going to build up from then on? I guess you could replenish the TKS liquid in Reykjavik, is this a common airport service? Just curious, sorry for the many questions 😊
@igclapp
@igclapp Жыл бұрын
Probably because he wanted to conserve TKS fluid in case he had to hold, or do a missed approach in icing conditions.
@MickeLang
@MickeLang Жыл бұрын
Good question👍🏼 Because I saw on the wing that it was just water hotting the wing and no more ice building up, that‘s why I turned it off👍🏼☺️

Hi Micke, I have been watching your videos and I really like them. I have a question regarding this landing at BIKF. The callout for MINIMUMS happened at 220ft, which is the height given for CAT II ILS approach. The DA62 flight manual says CAT I approaches only, so if I read the chart correctly that would have been 330 ft (the runway was visible at that height as well, so no difference in the outcome). So my question is, am I missing something or should that decision altitude be 330? (I am looking at BIKF ILS chart effective march 2023, so that might have changed as well?) Thanks!
@MickeLang
@MickeLang 10 ай бұрын
Hi Lenard, easy answer, I am landing in BIRK not at BIKF ;) Cat A minimums are at 229 so I had 230 in there ;) Thanks for watching!

How can you see the runway in the dark just before touchdown? I can't see anything there. Are the landing lights enough for that? Continue to have a good flight.

So TKS has a limited supply? I heard you say it is a fluid? I thought anti-icing was just heat elements built into the surfaces that ice over with boots that flex using air on the leading edges!
@bjorn2625

It’s a fluid on the DA-62, so supply is limited.
