When I was younger my parents took me to north shore airfield in New Zealand it was the first time going to an airport of any type and I thought to myself: “imagine a 3 engines piston plane” I contradicted myself “by thinking naaaaa that’s impossible 3 engines where would they put the third one?!” But as We drove past the Barrier Air terminal I saw 3 of these Beautiful planes park outside the hanger their blue red and white livery. Sadly I never got to see them fly. A few months later I watched them being torn apart with its long noes up in the air as they were operating on the tail engine. One thing you didn’t say in the video is the Beautiful sound those Lycoming 540 engines produce it’s better than a Merlin! And the engines can be put into reverse /useful in the islands when you can actually reverse into the departures (someone told me they actually did that) Also The manufacturer has stated if someone places an order of five they will put these back into production So... LETS DO IT BOIS! Long live the poor mans dc-10!
Let's be real. This Britten-Norman flies in the carribean and it's a truly beautiful place and the tickets are quite expensive just cause of the scenery in the carribean. Also it's a tourism hotspot for Europeans and Americans so no wonder it's expensive. Carribean is a beautiful place and you should visit it in the summer!
nooo don't slander it :( I took this plane every year to visit my grandma in the Channel Islands. I loved it so much, especially the noise it made as it went over her house. it was very reliable. this plane is all yellow and has the red nose because they did it for the charity Red Nose Day one year and it stuck. The plane is called Joey and Aurigny had a fan club for it and everything

I'm in Puerto Rico and these planes were perfectly suited for the small hop between San Juan, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Flew on them often on Vieques Air Link until they upgraded. Ugly but they are absolute work horses. Super cheap to maintain too.
1:45 the reason why the nose is extremely long is very simple if you stop ranting about things and patiently look at them: the third engine is literally on the tail, making the tail heavy. so the wings have to be placed backwards in order to adjust the centre of lift (if that's what you call it, I have not studied aeronautics, I am just a high school student) to be centre mass. this makes the nose look very long.
You do realise there is a “Trislander Mk3-1” (not seen on this video). The “Trislander MK3-1” is a SHORT NOSED variant. Clearly the nose has nothing to do with the weight... Yes the position of the wings etc helps. And that’s why you see the wings so far back. In the video we see the Mk3-2 or MK3-3 that has the “long noes” this is mainly used for baggage storage at the front. (As he said) I don’t feel the need to correct people when you clearly don’t know much about this said topic. Sorry if I seemed aggressive just this is my favourite plane XD
Yeah.. It's not THAT bad. The windows look a bit weird but kinda fun like a 5 year old drew the windows but not really. The BN2 Islander is a bit better looking on the outside, AND. I flew on the aircraft from Anguilla to Sint Maarten. I liked the plane, honestly I mean, Swiss was being a bit too harsh about this plane
Yeah! Islanders from Guernsey loved JOEY! G-JOEY was part of Aurigny's sleep for around 40 years! he now rests in Guernsey. Britten Norman Trislander is most definitely not ugly.
I've landed at Saba IRL (as a passenger). It was en route stop, and they might have warned us. We were in a less interesting two-engine Islander, though.
Dude I totally flew on a BPA Trislander when I was a child to Dunk Island in Queensland, Australia. Was an awesome flight over water, the 3rd engine sure did make you feel more secure in case of engine failure.
I went on one when I was a kid. My Dad was doing business in Jersey and Guernsey. The pilot would stop 2 of the 3 engines and swap the running engine while in flight. It's an island hopper. Only meant to go a few miles.

It might look ugly to some, but to me it's an amazing piece of aviation engineering that still flies this day. Sadly, the Trislander no longer flies where I live but it was THE plane that made flying between Guernsey, Alderney, Jersey and Southampton quick and cheap. Flights like a shuttle bus service, nearly every hour or so. I'd rather fly one of these than the equivalent Dornier 228 we have now - they're monstrous in size and don't have the same charm as a Trislander.

You have to have lean mixture for lukla, it works very well there, there's also a piston engine version which could work in lukla, I was thinking this earlier and now I've seen the vid I thought I might comment this.😃
The aren't ugly. They have a quite unique design. When I was a kid I flew in one of those and I love them ever since. It's one plane I wish to buy some day

1 door for every two seats they also fold down to provide ease of access. Also when you think about it it’s a much more efficient design. No need to have an unused centre isle the would make the plane more fatter thus less efficient.
That plane has a legend long years it's knowns for UFO incident tour that makes u nightmares so that is the top 3 dangerous plane plus ugly and it's scary cause sometimes the plane tracks ufo on radar

Swiss: „Thats really good pricing!“
Anguilla Air Service: 250$ for a 15 Minute flight, covering a distance of barely 40km
I thought the same way

The reason why there is no yoke 3:31 is because the front right seat is used as a passenger seat on commercial flights, saves money for the airline :D

You need to lean the mixture at a high altitude thats why you couldn't accelerate and the engines continued to fail

There's also a baggage compartment since the aft is pretty dense and can't be too heavy

Beautiful landing at “Saba” 4:39 😂
I see these every so often here in St. Thomas..and my flight instructor used to fly them for Anguilla Air Services
Aircarfts
Nah, that trislander is a chad and that airline is a chad
1:21 you say "it’s a little bit of low performance aircraft" but 8:49 you can take off at luckla without any engine 🤣🤣🤣
“Mom can we have a boeing 727?”
“No we already have a boeing 727 at home”
The boeing 727 at home:
Disrespectfully underrated.
"Just a routine Saba airport landing" he said while landing at St. Barth.
Also "Aircarfts"
I've landed at Saba IRL (as a passenger). It was en route stop, and they might have warned us. We were in a less interesting two-engine Islander, though.
@@Dafnessific Still an interesting airport though. I've flown into St. Barths but never Saba.

1:40 seems like Swiss forgot the time he ended up flying w me on the MSFS Alpha 2, in C172's at TFFJ
"Do you have a MD11?"
"No we got a LG11"
Hey, how is your English so good? Did you have to learn in school as a kid?
didn't realize that all of the triprops that I've drawn existed in real life
Why don’t I see exhaust when I play msfs like I see on Swiss’s videos? Is there a setting I need to change? I’m on Xbox.
I flied this flight a bit and is a RYANAIR 2.0😂
i acually like this plane :D just because its so weird XD

Professor Alphonse Mephisto contributed to the design of this plane. Give the addon devs a gold star for the dangling cord.

That face on the nose looks depressed...
Video idea: Land on streets. For example you could land on the street in new york city
It’s a decent aircarft 😂
Looks like a banana. Best Plane for Spirit Airways 😂😂😂😂
In Puerto Rico we have them such lovely planes and also we have the islander
Swiss, when will you upload another video?
6:03 as someone who lives in Anguilla you have triggered me
This was a cool aircraft

6:45 250 dollars for 15 min flight
Ryanair:
it’s not ugly, sure it’s not the most beautiful, but it’s so rugged, outlasted many beautiful airlines and is still in service
Idea for a vid is
Don Mueang International Airport (VTBD) in Bangkok, 2 parallel runways and a golf course in between the runways.
I actually love how it looks XD
This was my forst add-on for MSFS and I have spend many hours in it and still love it today

Ahh yes, one of the planes that encountered a UFO sightings in English Channel.
Very beautiful airctaft for flgihts between islands !

Only thing that could make it worse is if the nose also had a propeller
Quadlander, that would be kind of cool.
One of my favorite planes ever made!
Now what if some lcc like Ryanair would order this?🤔🤔🤔
It would be interesting to see a Ryanair style landing w. turboprop
Lycoming 540 is a piston engine... He even said in the video the trislander is a piston plane
try landing it at a grass runway maybe even the airport from yesterday with the weird aeroplane
if it has BAD crashes, its a certified tri-jet
Nice plane bro
1:09 Does anyone notice that there is no walking path? How could we possibly walk to those seats at the back? It's essentially useless lol

There are two variants of the trislander, long nose and short nose, Joey is obviously a long nose variant. But was modified to be so
Yeah the Mk3-1 (short nosed) and MK3-2/MK-3-3 (long nosed)
