Let me take you along to Funchal Madeira Airport (LPMA), one of the most challenging airports in Europe! A cockpit view approach and landing in a Boeing 737-800 on runway 05 in Funchal Airport. The video shows what it's like to fly a visual RNP approach and Visual landing in a Boeing 737 800. Interesting facts, approach charts and actual call-outs and Boeing procedures were added to provide a sense of everything that is going on inside the cockpit during landing. Would you also like to see other landing videos on islands like Samos, Mykonos, Zakynthos or Kos? Let me know what you think guys!

Driving away from the airport, one can see how amazing this runway is. From the highway, it resembles an elevated city highway perched on a forest of concrete pillars at least 50 metres high. On take-off, there is no soaring climb into the air, just a continuing gentle climb as the wheels leave the ground and the rocky coastline replaces it under the wings.

I've held many jobs over the years including Trim and Drill Mechanic, Tooling, Quality Investigator, Shop Manager and for the last 28 years, Research and Development. I've worked on DBT's (Design Build Teams), now called IPT's (Integrated Product Teams) for nearly every new aircraft and derivative since 1993. I've been involved with work on the 737 Classic, 737 NG and now the 737 MAX for my entire career out here, well, along with 777, 787, 767 and now Airbus A220 and new Defense projects since we now do work for other customers after Boeing sold us. Anyway, I love the 737's and really enjoy watching videos like this. I will say, your videos are truly amazing with the quality video equipment and all the details that pop up and the flight maps, etc. Thanks for all your hard work on the videos and thanks for sharing.

Another terrific video Michelle, thanks. I've flown to Funchal twice in recent years, landing on that same runway. Neither were as pleasant as your arival. The first time was best described as alarming with gusting and windshear so the aircraft was slewing from side to side quite violently on the run in. We were expecting a 'go around', but eventually the pilot just dropped it quite heavily as soon as he was over the runway. Wish you'd been driving 🤣. The take off is also interesting with dropping the starboard wing and banking right as soon as airborne. In fairness the pilot had warned us that this would happen, necessary due to the terrain ahead. Love all your videos which are so well produced, edited and so much information on screen....thanks again.

Robb, the Americans are saying that pilot training courses are valuable these days due to the imminent needs to hire competent new pilots. The problem about using this airport as a recruiting tool is that she is absolutely right in saying it is far more difficult than normal approaches. Unfortunately it is the only "major" airport serving a politically sensitive and vital outpost of the Portugalese nation.

Last year I flew from Gatwick to Funchal. 30 knot crosswinds at Funchal developed en route and we were diverted to Port Santo, where we sat for two hours. The gusts didn't abate and we flew all the way back to Gatwick, arriving around midnight and a two-hour wait for a fairly pointless hotel room, only to get up again at 5am for a 7am rematch.

Been to Madeira loved it and want to go back! While I was there my hotel was just a 10 minute walk to the airport. Needless to say I walked a few time to the airport and sat up on the the hill over looking the airport and watched landings and takeoffs. Totally enjoyed my time there. Thank You for the cockpit landed. As always totally enjoy your channel and your videos. Mahalo 🌸

One of the best approach/landing videos I've seen. I have liked, commented, and subscribed as I hear that's the best way to support :) The video was great and look forward to watching more!

Very informative videos well done so the average person can see and understand what pilots go through to get us all safely to our destinations. Thank you for all that you do.

lmfao no pilot actually watches this. There is something called flight school for professionals, but your brain just goes to youtube and thinks you are some kind of expert.

Gdy załoga podchodziła do lądowania, bałem się tak, jakbym sam siedział za sterami samolotu. Znakomity film, dziękuję bardzo 😊

Nice to have this view. In real life I've seen this from a passenger seat once. Also it's a very good island to walk if you're getting to old for much climbing. Walking along the "levada's" (water canals for irrigation) is also very nice and not really challenging...this on contrary to an isle as La Palma. No , it's not suitable for rollator or wheel chair, those paths....)

I remember visiting Ponta Delgada in the 1980’s. The passengers would all hold their Rosaries during landing. The breaking was so severe everything on the floor would be catapulted down the aircraft. The terminal building was like a wooden shed. I recall that the runway had a cliff at the end of it - hence the breaking. It was a strange place. The toilets in the bars were overflowing and soaking into the carpets in the bar. They had a festival going on. The girls were crawling around the square on their knees and the illuminations looked lethal. Thank goodness we had our RN trials ship on which we slept.

Had some very sketchy landings there as a passenger in the late 80's before the runway was extended, you could tell which passengers were visiting for the first time as they'd be clapping as soon as the wheels hit the tarmac. I remember one particular landing when touchdown seemed way too late and I watched familiar markers going past the window much faster than usual, the people clapping must have sensed the unease of us seasoned visitors to the island, applause turned to silence very quickly. You both made this landing look very easy, very nice skill.

You know, that runway used to be much shorter. It was prolonged in the 90's I think. Before that, planes had to apply strong brakes and reversers in order to stop in time. I remember people would start applauding inside the plane, when it came to a halt. Nowadays is a much easier landing.....

It was extended in the 80's after the tragedy of 1977.

One important moment that stood out to me was the Post-Landing checklist bc of how detailed and precise it was. It also makes for a great study guide.
