The UPS Landing A300 is a special condition, due to the fact the UPS Ramp is actually behind them if they land and pass Taxiway Kilo Kilo. If that happens, there is no viable turn off that would allow them to vacate the runway quickly. they would have to exit at Papa 1 high speed or Papa 2 High Speed, taxi down Papa all the way back to X-Ray, Cross 10/28C back onto Kilo Kilo just to get back to their ramp, so a Special Condition is allowed for UPS Flights to make a max power effort to stop and make the turn at Kilo Kilo if they can do it without having to actually completely turn around. That is also a lot of fuel burned off to taxi down, turn off, taxi back to, cross the runway again and make into the ramp. So they are taught to make the best effort of a short landing run on the 28C side landings to make their turn off.

@@camerone397 yeah, if you look at the map of O'Hare on OSM or even google maps, the UPS Ramp access taxiway is right there just a few thousand from the 28C Threshold and you can see, if you miss that Kilo Kilo turn off, you are having to run down the runway, turn off at Papa 1 or 2 High Speed, turn back down Papa, to X-Ray, wait to cross 28/10C back onto Kilo Kilo, then onto Sierra, Romeo Romeo, and into the South East Cargo Ramp. Its exactly 3560 Feet from the threshold to the center point of the X-Ray/Kilo Kilo - Runway 28/10C intersection . so yeah, its a SHORT landing attempt for sure for a A300 loaded down with cargo.

@@KuostAprobably the airport comitee, it’s generally not a good idea to do max power stops like that with brake wear, most airports are standard but obviously there’s standout cases. So they get approved for special cases as they appear.

In 1972 we flew back to Ohio to see my Grandparents. But when we flew back home to Phoenix we arrived in the middle of a dust storm. The plane eased down until maybe 15 to 20 feet off the runway, then a wind gust blew it up on one side. I looked out the window and all I could see was tarmac and dust. The other side of the plane saw nothing but dust. The pilot throttled up and got the hell out of there, flying on to Tucson until the storm had gone. Thst was scary from my perspective. It must have been worse for the pilot to pull off a climb like he did!

@amaarse 2 ай бұрын

I am a bit puzzled by the wild joystick input during the airbus lading. Can the control surfaces follow these rapid inputs? Isn't it better to smooth out your thoughts a bit before transfering them to the aircraft?

@jah5r Ай бұрын

Depending on the “Law” he was in, it’s completely useless. In normal law, you command a roll rate with left/right deflection with a maximum of 15° per sec. For the most part he was canceling out his inputs before they had time to take effect. Direct law is more traditional but that only happens when multiple control systems are lost. This was still a ton of movement even in direct law for how little the plane was moving. He was churning butter for sure.
