- Eurowings Airbus A319 visual approach and landing on runway 09 at Samos International Airport, SMI / LGSM, on Samos Island in Greece. Very deep Insights: Cockpit, pilots, instruments and sidestick views. With cockpit audio and ATIS (automatic terminal information service) and some explanations from the crew. Filmed with 5 cameras in 4k quality. Captain is pilot flying and first officer pilot monitoring. ATC (air traffic control) callsign is Eurowings 31DA (Eurowings Tree One Delta Alpha). Registration D-AGWB
During the manual flying part of the approach, this video highlights the sidestick of the captain. PFD (primary flight display) and ND (navigation display) are also visible during the approach.
Samos is a very special airport: The runway is not very long and due to the mountains, a straight in approach to runway 09 is not possible. The last part of the approach to Samos has to be flown as a visual maneuver for the lineup of the airplane on the final runway track. The village of Ireo and the Glasshouse are some of the landmarks for the visual pattern.

Really enjoyed this clip. I very much like the atmosphere in the cockpit. Calm, focused and professional.
Thanks for your nice feedback! The atmosphere you describe is always the basis for a safe flight operation.
Indeed maybe the most difficult approach in Europe beside Madeira mostly for the strong winds. Top landing and top video ! Danke 😀
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I agree, it is a difficult approach. It looks easier than it is. You need to know your airplane and the approach area very well. I also fly to Madeira. The airports both have their challenges, especially in windy weather conditions. In Samos, the runway is shorter and the straight part of the final approach is ultra short. Have a great day!
London city airport is always fun...
You are such an amazing captain, I bet all your co-pilots love flying with you. Extremely professional, calm, relaxed and you seem to have such a nice conversation with the co-pilot as well after. Love the fact that its all so flawless. Amazing video!
Thank you so much for watching and your very kind feedback! Have a great day!
A Greek Kai Tak!.... Excellent Approach and Landing Captain!

amazing video again thanks for sharing it
Thanks for watching! Have a nice day!
Amazing footage! Merry Christmas, cap!
Thank you so much! Merry Christmas also to you!
Thrilling Approach. But very nicely executed. It always feels good to watch your videos. I don't even skip any second of it.
Thanks for watching and your great feedback! Nice to hear that you like it! All the best to you!
Wow, that was a very tight approach. The scenery was amazing and we could see the PFD and ND displays very clearly. Excellent video thank you.
Thanks for watching and your great feedback! Correct, it is a tight approach and you have to fly very precisely.
Excellent video, thanks for creating and sharing. Great to see & hear the communication and collaboration between you and your FO.
Thanks for the great feedback! Have a wonderful day!
Breathtaking approach, awesome! 😵💫🛬
Thanks for watching and the great feedback! Have a nice day!
Very nice video. My first Samos landing in simulator ended with 2 go arounds. But now it's going good. Vielen herzlichen Dank, dass sie sich Mühe geben so gute Videos zu machen.
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das gute Feedback! Viel Spaß mit dem Simulator!
Love the videos! You've inspired me to start my journey to become an airline pilot.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Great to hear that my videos inspired you to become an airline pilot. I wish you all the best for your pilot training. I hope to see you soon on the flight deck as a new pilot!
MERCI !!! Continuez ! Good vidéo !
Thanks for the great comment! Have a nice day!
A very good video, Captain - thanks. Your most recent camera angles for the instruments are definitely the nest., and the Navigation Dispaly is always interesting in these Greek Island fllights. Visibility was excellent once you got below the light cloud. I liked the way that the two of you worked together as a team in the final stages of the approach - very professional!
Thank you so much for watching, the detailed feedback and the friendly words! Have a great day!
Thank you for all your videos they’re helping me a lot preparing to the assessment. Merry Christmas 🎄
Thanks for watching and good luck with your assessment! Merry Christmas!
Is that an English First officer I hear? Or just very well spoken English! Great video as always
to my ear he sounds like someone from London/just outside of London who has lived in Germany for a few years and has absorbed the German cadence a little.
Very cool approach!
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Have a nice day!
Very beautiful approach and an awesome landing have a nice Christmas and hope to see you next Saturday
Thanks for watching! Also Merry Christmas to you! See you soon!
Nice vid! Great approach. I could see the PFD and terrain clearly. All that red.
Geniales Video, danke für dieses Weihnachtsgeschenk !! Frohe Weihnachten und always happy landings
Schön zu hören, dass Dir das Video sehr gut gefällt. Auch Dir schöne Weihnachtstage und alles Gute für das nächste Jahr!
Well done, Captain! I always appreciate your flying skills! Keep it up with a next video please! :)
Thanks a lot for watching and your great feedback! More videos are coming! Have a wonderful day!
Goog video , fantastic
Thanks a lot!
One of the most difficult approaches look like a piece of cake.Excellent.Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Thanks for watching and your nice words! All the best and Merry Christmas to you!
Wonderful. Merry Christmas 🎅
Thank you. Merry Christmas and all the best to you!
I follow you some flights en and the are amazing so thanks for the videos and happy holidays to all
Thank you! Happy Holidays also to you!
Easily one of the best, if not the best, aviation related youtube channels at the moment. Great work, love watching all your videos!
Thank you so much for the kind words! All the best to you. Have a nice day!
Wonderful flying, and really nice crm too :) always nice to get a perspective from you.
Thanks for watching and and the great feedback! Have a good day!
Really enjoyed your video. and how the pilots work together and plan their approach,, many thanks guy, and may i wish you all a Merry Christmas too,,
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Merry Christmas also to you!
ah captain, i really love your videos the briefing and telling us the special things about the airport etc thats so good, I especially like the approach videos into duesseldorf in my opinion you should also in case we have snow one day film the approach, but only if you have the time as snow operations are bit busy
Thanks for watching and your feedback. I would love to do a snow approach video. It may take a while as the snow most of the time disappears immediately at the airports I fly to. Have a nice day!
Great video, merry Christmas
Thanks! The same to you!
Thank You to Eurowings for allow these great videos!! Very nice captain, Hope to meet you at Heathrow one day.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I am looking forwarding meeting you in Heathrow! Have a nice day!
Wie üblich ausgezeichnetes Video, der Anflag war wirklich spannend, insbesondere der final turn. Ich wünsche frohe Weinachten!
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und die guten Wünsche! Frohe Weihnachten und einen guten Übergang ins neue Jahr!
This must be my top 5 channel. Hello from Mozambique🇲🇿
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Great to hear that you like my channel! Many greetings from Florida to Mozambique!
Every first officer featured on this channel is so handsome! Thank you for upload as always, captain!
Ok, he might be handsome.
But this is not a criteria to become a FO.
His English is brilliant.
It is not this difficult to improve English, especially for aviators.
You don’t have to be a native speaker.
It is a matter of will and effort to improve.. English.

@@johannesfabender9 ......ok
Thanks for watching and your feedback! The first officers I fly with are really good at their job. They are all well trained, made it through comprehensive pilot assessments and are well qualified and great team players. It is always a pleasure to fly with them.
Was already on Samos for holiday and aircraft approached like in this video. Interesting. Very beautiful island and now ive already visited Samos on my own in MS Flight Simulator 2020 🙂😉 Thank you for the professional content 😉
Thanks for watching and for sharing your personal experience! I wish you lots of nice approaches and departures with your flight simulator!
Sums up! 👍
Thanks!
Very nicely done 👍✈️ Merry Christmas
Thank you! Merry Christmas also to you!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thank you
Most impressive - "proper" flying !
It must be very helpful having that large glasshouse just there on the extended runway centreline! 😄
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Yes, the glasshouse is a great landmark for the lineup during the visual approach. Have a nice day!
Very inspirational, I will fire up my flightsim in a minute. 👍
Thanks for watching! I wish you lots of fun with your simulator!
Cooler Kanal :)
Vielen Dank fürs gute Feedback! Einen schönen Tag noch!
That approach looks very hairy but a great crew made it look like driving to the shops
Thanks for watching and the nice words! Have a good day!
Wasted no time to engage full reverse thrust there! Nice landing capt, enjoyed this visual approach! Merry Christmas from Singapore!
The runway is short (below 2000 meters). So it is a good idea to use max reverse as soon as the main gears have touched down. Merry Christmas to Singapur! Have a great day!
Excellent as always. Was that an English accent I heard on the flight deck?! I have really enjoyed your content this year as I am sure many Flight Simmers have, too. Looking forward to 2023. Frohe Weihnachten!! Keith
Keith, thank you so much for watching and your continuous support! Nice to hear that you like the content. You are correct about the accent. I wish you Merry Christmas and all the best for the next year!
the professionalism is astounding as always great video :) Which approach would you say is your favourite of all you do?
Thanks for watching and your feedback! In general, I like to fly visual approaches to nice destinations. Especially islands with airports near the coastline. Samos is one of my very favourite airports. Palma de Mallorca, Corfu, Madeira, Nice, Venice are also on the list.
Καλώς ορίσατε στον τόπο μας καλοί μου διαδικτυακοί μου φίλοι , σας εύχομαι καλά Χριστούγεννα σε εσάς και τις οικογένειές σας , σας περιμένουμε ξανά με το καλό , με εκτίμηση !
Thanks for watching and your friendly words. All the best and Merry Christmas to you!
It's fascinating to see these planes approaching when sitting on the terrace of the holiday house I've been staying in September the last 2 years. The next village the captain was talking about in the beginning is Myli. Most planes (except some of the small(er) Olympic Air and Sky Express planes) make a nearly 90° turn there to get in line with the runway when passing over "the glasshouse". The cross winds are mainly there because the "Meltemi" wind (northerly wind) comes through a "gap" in the hills and goes right across the final approach.
Fantastic job captain.
But why go a lot of planes coming from the North as far as the island of Agathonissi to make a 180° turn to go to Samos?
Thanks for watching and for sharing your very personal experience! The standard instrument approach starts over Samos airfield, continues to the south for about 10 nautical miles and then turns north back to a point abeam the runway. This is to loose altitude while staying clear of obstacles. This approach procedure is always followed by a visual pattern to runway 09 or 27. There is even a special chart available for the visual part of the approach. Have a nice day!
May I ask why you used the speed brakes at 5:48 during the flight into the cloud? Thanks for the very informative and exciting video! Also incredibly good flight skills
Thanks fir watching! Good question! I wanted to get underneath the clouds as quick as possible to see the airport. This gave us the opportunity to ask for a visual approach, which is shorter as the full instrument approach plus the circling procedure. Have a nice day!
Did you have some custom waypoints defined on the secondary flight plan you switched to when going for the visual approach, or what had you prepared for that one, since you changed? And when flying without AP/FD, how / for what is the flight plan utilized?
Tried the approach last evening in MSFS. Good challenge, and amazing to have videos like these as reference from real life. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! The primary flightplan contained the full approach procedure. The secondary plan contained just some self created waypoints which reflected the suggested path from the visual approach chart. Even if not flying with autopilot or flight director, these points are displayed on the navigation display. Have a nice day!
Captain beautiful execution and landing. A couple of questions - I don't see an RNAV approach on the charts, just VOR and NDB. was it decommissioned as far as you are aware? and did you create your own waypoints for the visual portion?- i am sure those brake fans earn their living at this airport :) - many thanks for another wonderful flight video.and Merry Christmas - Kam
Thanks for watching and your friendly feedback! You are correct. There is no RNAV approach published. The company produced an own RNAV overlay approach which contains the waypoints of the published VOR approach and the visual approach part in one approach. For our approach, we were cleared for the visual approach very early. So we used the secondary flight plan. We put the waypoints and radials from the visual approach chart in that secondary flight plan and used them for additional awareness. I agree, it is always good to fly with a brake fan equipped plane to Samos. Merry Christmas also to you!
Very nice visual approach and team work. I really like your video, very professional, and truely for aviation lovers!
Why did you use selected speed on final appch ?
rgds
Thanks for watching and the great and detailed feedback! With managed speed, the approach speed target changes constantly with the changing wind. To avoid this and to stay below the speed limit in the turn, I used selected speed with an increment which we included in the landing distance calculation. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I see ! Thanks for your answer
Have a good day ☺️
Fantastic clip, very interesting to watch this as i have been to Samos many times :) I just have a quick question. Why is it some planes that arrive and depart the opposite way than you did? Just happens from time to time, not often. I was thinking i had something to do about mountains around and border to Turkey. Please let me know if you have a good answere :)
Thanks for your good feedback! We always want to takeoff and land with a headwind or a very light tailwind. When the wind changes, airplanes may land in one direction and later on takeoff in the opposite direction.
I already requested Stuttgart, but Rhodes would be also awesome to see!
It takes a while, but I assume that I will fly to both airports sometime in the future and be able to record a video. Please stay tuned! Have a great day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Awesome, cant wait to see this!
Thanks and have a great day too!
Vielen Dank für die immer tollen Videos! Eine Frage hätte ich. Nach der Landung kam diee Info über das CTOD. Was hat es damit auf sich?
Ihnen schöne Weihnachten!
Danke fürs Anschauen und die Weihnachtswünsche! Auch Ihnen alles Gute und ein Frohes Fest! CTOT ist die calculated takeoff time, die bei Bedarf von der Flugsicherung vergeben wird. Wir nennen das auch Slot. Das Zeitfenster zum Abheben startet 5 Minuten vor der CTOT und ist 15 Minuten lang. In der Zeit muss man in der Luft sein. Falls man dazu nicht in der Lage sein sollte, muss man die Abflugzeit im Flugplan verschieben.
Procedure when gear down done by PM is that "arm speedbrakes", nose light to taxi (or TO) and rwy turn off lights to ON? A little hard to catch the exact details on the otherwise great videos.
That is correct. You know the right procedures. Have a nice day!
Is the PM noting A3, stand 7 on the scratchpad on the MCDU as a reminder?
That is correct. We usually do not write taxi instructions down on paper. We type them on the MCDU scratchpad as a reminder.
Nice video, thank you for the upload.
Why did you had to wait a minute before engine shutdown?
Thanks for watching! We had to wait a minute because of a required 3 minutes cooldown period after high thrust application. Usually, the taxi time is enough for the cooldown. Here the taxi time was very short and not long enough for that cooldown period.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos thank you for the explanation. It was glad to see that ground crew really waited the strobe setting to off before rushes to the a/c.
Beautiful im on holiday right now in denmark i got to sit in my cousins AMG GT C63 2020 900hp while he drives it was crazy fast! Matte black black rims im heading to germany 10:30 to visit my cousins there from denmark then after new years ill be heading home
I suggest that you put a pair of wings on that 900 hp car and continue as an airplane. With 900 hp, you have more than 3 times the hp as most of the small 4 seat general aviation airplanes.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos yeah
Great video but I was wondering why you waited 50 seconds to shut down engines after parking brake? Thanks :)
Thanks for watching and your feedback! The engines have a required cooldown time. Due to the very short taxi time, we had to wait until the cooldown time is over. Usually the taxi time is longer than the cooldown time. Then there would be no additional waiting time at the parking position. Have a nice day!
Is there any trick in having both VOR1 and VOR2 tuned to the same station (here SAM), other than redundancy?
We can enter the same or different VORs on the RAD NAV page for VOR1 and 2. When we plan on a VOR approach, we usually use both VOR receivers setup for the same VOR and the same course. This enables both pilots to see the course deviation on their CDI. VOR1 is shown on Capt side and VOR 2 on FO side.
Wieder ein tolles Video und ein spannender herausfordernder Approach! Vielen Dank fürs Teilen!
Aus Neugier - was war denn für ein Routing im secondary FPlan?
Und noch eine Frage: wenn man den IFR approach zu Ende geflogen wäre, wann wäret ihr ins pattern bzw cycling geflogen? Kurz vor Samos VOR?
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das gute Feedback! Im secondary Flightplan war ein abgekürzter Anflug, der die Wegepunkte, die sich aus der Visual Approach Chart ergeben, enthielt. Der IFR-Anflug wäre genauso geendet. Auch hier wären wir im Anschluss and das VOR-Anflugverfahren über das Dorf Ireo geflogen. Einen schönen Tag noch!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos vielen Dank für die Antwort! Ich finde leider das Visual Approach Chart nicht - nur die VOR (13-1) und NDB (16-1) Approach..
Curious to know why you pulled selected speed instead of staying in managed for the final approach?
I used selected speed on short final because with managed speed the ground speed mini system would change the approach speed target continously due to the changing winds. This is not helpful during the approach here with the very short straight part. Instead, we added a little bit to the approach speed and included that in the landing distance calculation.
Many questions... I have a lot to learn :). Pulling the speed (136) on the approach, why is that, compared to just leaving it in managed mode?
Good question. With using the selected speed, I disabled the groundspeed mini function of the Airbus. In Samos, the wind usually is constantly changing during the approach. This constantly changes the target approach speed when we fly managed speed. Instead we precalculated the landing distance with a small speed increment. This speed was selected for the final approach. Have a nice day!
Finally sharp PFD and ND but i am sure that it is relevant with the sunshine. For my opinion, it would be so useful who wants to learn something from you, maybe u should consider to set your 1 cam for the ECAM screen. Thank you very much for the nice video 🇹🇷
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I - for sure - keep your suggestions in mind. Have a nice day!
Merry Christmas, guys! Excellent video as always. Does Samos have an instrument approach at all, and what are the lowest minimums available?
Uwe, thanks for the great feedback! Yes, Samos has an instrument approach. Minimum descent altitute is 1880 feet for a Cat C airplane, like the Airbus 319 or 320. The approach brings you down on a northerly heading over the water towards the runway. From there you have to contnue via a visual pattern for the landing on runway 27 or 09, which is the preferred runway. The airport has published a special chart for the visual part of the instrument approach. We used this chart also during our approach. Merry Christmas to you!
Ein sehr schwieriger Anflug gut gemeistert. Toll ! Das sieht alles sehr durchdacht aus. Ich (Flugsimulator-Fan) habe da mal Fragen zu den Speedbrakes. Benutzt man diese eher, um nur kurz Geschwindigkeit abzubauen, da es mit den Triebwerken länger dauern würde (bis diese auch wieder hochfahren)? Vor dem Setzen der Flaps ist auch die Speedbrake eingesetzt worden. Ist dann der Anflug nicht schon von vornherein etwas zu schnell gewesen? Müsste man vorher die Geschwindigkeit mehr herabsetzen? So hätte man beim Setzen der Flaps mehr Margin und kommt nicht so schnell in die Flap Overspeed. und ich habe mal gehört, wenn man die Speedbrake einsetzt, dann sollte man die Hand auch direkt am Lever lassen, damit man diese nicht vergisst ( und die Triebwerke dagegen arbeiten müssten). Vielen Dank schon mal für die Antworten. Weiterhin viel Spaß. Ich freue mich sehr über diese tollen Landevideos (zum Nachfliegen in meinem Simulator).
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen! Speedbrakes werden immer dann benutzt, wenn es nicht reicht, die Triebwerke im Leerlauf laufen zu lassen, um Hôhe und/oder Geschwindigkeit abzubauen. Im Video wurde der Anflug kürzer als ursprünglich freigegeben. Damit hatten wir bereits gerechnet und konnten das teilweise berücksichtigen. Allerdings nicht komplett, da der standard Anflug aufgrund der Berge relativ hoch stattfindet. Deshalb habe ich die Speedbrakes genutzt. Wenn man sie nur kurz braucht, bleibt meist die Hand dran. Wenn es etwas länger ist, nicht unbedingt. Der Flieger meldet sich mit einer Warnung, wenn die Speedbrakes noch draußen sind, und dagegen Gas gegeben wird. In die Overspeed sollte man grundsätzlich nicht fliegen. Das erfordert ggf. eine Inspektion. Solange man keine Limits des Flugzeuges oder der Flugsicherung überschreitet, ist man auch nicht zu schnell. Wieweit unter der jeweils maximalen Geschwindigkeit die nächste Klappenstufe ausgefahren wird, ist von vielen Faktoren abhängig, die in jedem Anflug anders sind.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos super. Vielen Dank für die schnelle Rückmeldung..ich wünsche euch always Happy Landings und einen guten Start ins neue Jahr
Busy time in cockpit during approach to SMI :)
Yes, a little bit more busy than during the standard 10 nautical miles straight in instrument approach at “normal” airports.
manual throttle??
No, autothrust.
08:14 "We are over the water" - would be bad if you were under the water ;D
That’s right. We used that term to state that there are no obstacles below us.
Why do you wait 50 seconds before engine shutdown ?
Good question. The engines have a required cooldown time of 3 minutes after high thrust application. Due to the short taxi distance, we had to wait at the parking position before shutting down the engines. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos how do you define high trust? Above 50% N1?
The crazy thing is, these videos are sooo good. I’m only a simulator guy so the real flying is something I don’t have other than as passenger and i am learning so much from these Video:. It really makes me happy. Great work! Happy holidays :)
Also: How was the secondary flight plan used here? Cleared up just to have a clean approach picture? Thank you! :)
Thanks for watching and the friendly feedback! The secondary flight plan was setup for the visual approach. There is a visual approach chart published. It contains radials and landmarks for a visual approach. So we put some of the points in the secondary flight plan for our awareness.
Ahhh. Thank you! :)
Merry Christmas guys.
Thank you! The same to you!
