@@ramblin-randy - No. Living in Brisbane. Haven't been to Nauru though! Proud of her! Has been a pilot for over a decade at least. Sad to hear about ET302 crashing yesterday with 157 on board.
Haha the airport is clearly visible on satellite images of the country! They even needed to extend the airport into the ocean because the island was too small to fit it! Little Nauru, respect from USA
This aircraft (VH-XNU) used to be Air New Zealand's B737-300 (ZK-NGJ). I flew this aircraft on NZ674 from Dunedin to Auckland in 2013 so I'm glad that the plane wasn't scrapped.
What a way to be welcomed into a country!! To fly into a country and to be greeted by the vast Pacific ocean all around you. Wow!! Beautiful video, Randy!!
Nauru looks absolutely stunning in this video. The centre of the island was supposedly destroyed by phosphate mining, but it looks lush and green in this video. I think the place has fantastic tourism potential !
@@pranishchhetri777 that is not senseless. The only other way to get there is boat and if your traveling long distance, I don't want to have to do a layover.
Elektrik HyEEEna Thank you for watching! I have another video that is about 20 minutes long, that shows everything on the island… I hope you will check it out!
Any possibilities that you can furnish me with some solid contacts for is to do solid waste management and vertical farming there, just to help the beautiful nation with the solid waste and high-price imported commodities there. Thanks
Thanks! I'm reading it now. I traveled around the world back in 2000. I've been to more than 50 countries, but not yet to Nauru, St Helena, or Pitcairn. These are a few that are on my bucket list. I thoroughly enjoyed your blog. Watching some of your videos now! Thanks for taking the time to share this.
No, thank you David! I have two Nauru pieces: one that is my story of visiting, and then another travel essentials page that outlines all the facts/info. I hope you can make it to Nauru!!!
8:38 Is the plane taxiing over a street? 😁 So basically, cars and scooters can enter the ramp & runway? Or this street remains closed for the whole time the plane is on the tarmac. Interesting airport design on this tiny island. Wish I could visit Nauru some day, but from Germany, it's damn hard and expensive to get there
I noticed a freighter off the island. Can they come right in and unload, or does all freight and supplies have to be delivered by lighters, as is the case with Norfolk Island?
why would they need amusement parks? They are literally surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and there is no greater entertainment or leisure activity that will keep them occupied. The view itself is to die for. They are not materialistic people, they make do with whatever they have. They are happy and content.
Love to visit there some day. Be nice to be away from everything for a week or so!...Being a Ham Radio (Amateur Radio) operator I would love to do a DxPedition on there!
It’s the flyover landing. Sometimes for take-off. Back in the days it would be done on special occasions like Nauru Angam and Independence Day with the captains special PA and also when foreign dignitaries and VIPs come to visit Nauru
No, you don't, I was there in the 80s and 90s and from I hear, with their primary source of income (phosphates) has been literally depleted. Nauru had one of the highest GDPs in the world, now it is one of the world's poorest. It is "fattest" nation on the planet and frankly you likely die of boredom, Nauru is far from the idyllic Pacific paradise that many envision.
I’ve always been fascinated with these tiny little Oceanian island nations, including Nauru and also Tuvalu I hope to visit one day! 😀
SHURIKEN RCN me too! Please check out my website www.ramblinrandy.com with reports on both of those countries and more!

Wow me too!
Me too 😀
Me too!
It is so weird to have an entire country in your view.
Its even more weird to have an entire cultures motherland in that view!
Be Be you’re stupid.
Be Be wtf dude
Gabriel Ungacta didn’t understand but ok
Be Be Welll... that too.. but technically it’s still a country
Thanks for posting this footage! My daughter is a pilot for Nauru Airlines 🤗🤗
Vera H No way! That’s so cool! Are you from Nauru and if not have you been able to visit?

@@verah619 omg that's so amazing!!!!!!!! Sad to hear about the crash but I wanna be there
I'm Canadian and I've always been so interested in these tiny little islands in Oceania. I will go to Nauru one day 💪
You should visit!
Me too
There are better islands and atols. Nauru nature is destroyed.
Haha the airport is clearly visible on satellite images of the country! They even needed to extend the airport into the ocean because the island was too small to fit it! Little Nauru, respect from USA
They extended it because the NZ government wanted to use Nauru as an airport in the middle of the pacific for emergency landings of their old 767s.

No way!!! That is AWESOME!!! Are you still flying? Who do you fly for now? I just think this is so cool!
Wow
Wow this view of my country is nice we can see lots of things
What a way to be welcomed into a country!! To fly into a country and to be greeted by the vast Pacific ocean all around you. Wow!! Beautiful video, Randy!!
Vono Tabua Thank you!!! I was so lucky!
Imagine you could see the whole country from the plane window
The fact that this is the smallest island country in the world , and that’s it’s still pretty big, just goes to show how gigantic this planet is!
Nauru looks absolutely stunning in this video. The centre of the island was supposedly destroyed by phosphate mining, but it looks lush and green in this video. I think the place has fantastic tourism potential !
Stunning? It looks flat, stripped, lonely and kind of sad to me.

Congratulations Nauru for your national holiday on 26th October from your friends of Germany
Nauru war mal eine Deutsche Kolonie
Nauru, the smallest Island Nation in the World. Thanks for this awesome Video.
Roman Parisian it’s Vatican the smallest
Dornix Rex Vatican is not an island
3rd smallest in the world
Nauru is so small and lonely on the Pacific Ocean.
Hudaman they used to be one of the richest countries in the world per capita, until their phosphate mining ran out.
syed firdaus where did they go with all that money??? I could parley see few houses
@@Sara77703 the government wasted most of it by investing in senseless projects like nauru airlines and so on...
@@pranishchhetri777 that is not senseless. The only other way to get there is boat and if your traveling long distance, I don't want to have to do a layover.
That is my home!
Yo how is life in Nauru? (Sorry for being late)
@@Tendra-is ok
Hi, I’m making a video about Nauru. Can I use parts of your video in my video, with credits to your channel/Instagram?
Sure!
Congratulations for your national holiday on 17th May Nauru from your friends in Germany
Yep, Nauru is a former German colony, did you know?
This is the only time when you can actually look at an entire country through the window of your aircraft :)
The amount of cities you've crossed by landing
When the plane starts landing your in Aiwo, then you roll to Yeren, then you roll to Meneng. Then after that you roll back to the terminal
they fly around before landing to show you a panorama of the country?
It's really fascinating to see Nauru! I wonder how it's like to travel to the small island.
Elektrik HyEEEna Thank you for watching! I have another video that is about 20 minutes long, that shows everything on the island… I hope you will check it out!
@@ramblin-randy Of course I will! I'm very curious about Nauru and its history and other stuff. You just earned another sub. +1
It was a nice experience to people who had never visited such far areas
I'm Brazilian, and one day I'll go to Nauru❤
Oi cara!!! Adoro o Brasil!!!
R Dub! Já veio aqui?
Claro! Sou americano, mas tenho casa no Recife!!! O Brasil mora no meu coração!
R Dub! Aaaa sim! Que ótimo, rs,
Onde estas no Brasil??? Meu instagram: @slowjams
A place crazily on my bucket list

How did you go to Nauru now I feel like going there.🇳🇷
Jairo ikr
Fly to Singapore or Australia and go to Nauru Airlines for flights to Nauru itself
@@tsuumia thanks
Am in Africa,i feel to visit nauru how do and where will i start from?
You definitely find places that were not mentioned in high school. Great video and that's crazy to see the entire island.
The whole island is just Nauru?
yes
Thanks for sharing. I hear this is one of the most difficult countries to visit. Less than 200 people a year visit, from my research. I gotta go!!!
David Barton I wrote an entire blog on how to get there if you're really interested. www.ramblinrandy.com
Thanks! I'm reading it now. I traveled around the world back in 2000. I've been to more than 50 countries, but not yet to Nauru, St Helena, or Pitcairn. These are a few that are on my bucket list.

Anyone here from Geography Now?
Bob Muller LOVE that show!!!
R Dub! Me too! I hope you had fun! It kinda makes me want to go!
Yes me
I vas in Nauru 1994.first time,.from Brisbaine,we stay at goverment own Menen Hotel,think,correct name,.
That's where I stayed!
Where did plane land on the road the island is so small population about 11,000 people .
Batman wtf
This airport has only two flights every week
8:38 Is the plane taxiing over a street? 😁 So basically, cars and scooters can enter the ramp & runway? Or this street remains closed for the whole time the plane is on the tarmac. Interesting airport design on this tiny island. Wish I could visit Nauru some day, but from Germany, it's damn hard and expensive to get there
Why plane travelled extra miles when I could save time in shortcut
Because the island is very very very small...
Mango Man stf
Mango Man wtf ok
Give you an example mate: if you intend to land on a Mango you have to fly via the Pinapple first in order to align with the Mango- runway.
Wind direction... the plane needs to go against the wind for take off and landing
I hope to visit every single country in the world one day.
Safe travels!!!
Thank you for the updated landing! :)
Is it weird to get emotional? I'm not Nauruan, I'm Guamanian! :)
@Sean Qu Ol yes. But I just said Guamainian because people know that term more than Chamorro.
I Love Nauru
we live in a beautiful planet
It used to be the second richist nation on earth
Lego Peps really? Wow
Per capita
That’s amaizing !! 😍😱
i never been here in NAURU i hope 1 time.
I noticed a freighter off the island. Can they come right in and unload, or does all freight and supplies have to be delivered by lighters, as is the case with Norfolk Island?
Oh man, that's a great question and I don't know.
yes, by big cranes
Nauru is a Finnish word and means in English Laughing. So landing in Laughing :D
ViihdeJukat Menen is another Finnish word?
Menen means "I'm going" Im a finnish
It's laughter not laughing
How many people were in the plane?
To To idk
Are there any cruises ship from Niue to Auckland New Zealand
Beautiful
at least from the air, that island certainly looks like it could be rehabilitated
Congratulations for your national holiday on 31st January Nauru from your friends in Germany
Everything is so mini...
Literally, a bird's eye view!
This Is a very good Place to go!
I had Heard that this Is the paradise!
I want ti ho here! I will go there, it is a place far from the noise.
Pues está difícil llegar hasta ahí pero dicen qué ahí no hay corona virus
beautiful
Hi, may I ask what seat number is this? would love to get a view of the engine when i fly with ON. thanks!
Oh I am so sorry, I don't remember, this was a couple years ago. You can tell it was the left side of the plane, near the wing. I wish I remembered :(

Why the whole island empty? They must start asking people to come from other nations to go over there and become Nauru nationals
Voce mora por ai?
Não, moro em California (as vezes Recife!)
the sea loking very nice
Must be boring with no amusement park and band might never come to this island when touring
why would they need amusement parks?
They are literally surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and there is no greater entertainment or leisure activity that will keep them occupied. The view itself is to die for. They are not materialistic people, they make do with whatever they have. They are happy and content.
@@Iam_fijian actually their materialism is what cost them their riches. Look up the story of how Nauru went from rags to riches, to rags again
One of the few international airports who is the only airport in the country and who is served by only one company
Pacific Air Express flies cargo from Brisbane
Nice, I want to visit there
Freemasons will usher the emergence of Dajjal of course sir I stay in India only. But I love to visit new places
Imagina se esse Pais fosse todo arborizado, seria um paraiso, milhares de turistas iriam visita-lo.

best landing view... me from Langkawi
Emang harus muter dulu ya klo mau mendarat? Padahal tadi udah diatas pulau nauru
