- Hello everyone, glad to welcome you back to this video of the Swiss a220 noseview landing at London City Airport.
We took off early in the morning to arrive around 8 o’clock at our destination. Crosswinds of up to 20 knots made this landing a very challenging one.
Also, this approach requires special training and procedures. For example, it is a six degree approach for both runways, 27 and 09. On the a220, the speedbrakes stay extended at about 30% during the entire approach. Il try to capture that next time I go to city as a wingview video for you guys.
If you guys feel like it, try a similar setup in Microsoft flight simulator on the same runway, you will appreciate this captains job even more when you know how hard it actually is to make it look so effortless and easy.
So I will let you enjoy the landing now, give this video a like and hit the subscribe button if you haven’t already fellas.
There’s more coming in the next few weeks, thank you especially to my patreon supporters, and of course to you, my subscribers.
Let me know in the comments below what you thought of this landing, the a220 and this special steep approach into London!

London City Airport Landing
Welcome you all for another video of our Airbus a220 arriving at London City Airport!
first off, Glad you seem to be interested in videos like this, so make sure you have subscribed to this channel!
And second, I’m very glad to present you another one of these videos from the cockpit, especially London City. I’m a Swiss and English double citizen, and for me this flight always has been something like connecting the two homes. London, the metropolis and my home town, Zurich.
If you yourself want to witness this landing for yourself, book a flight on Swiss.com to London City, you won’t be disappointed, I guarantee you that. Each and every landing is intense, and very challenging given the steep approach path of 5.5 degrees.
We’ve looked at this approach already a half a dozen times, so il get to the landing right away.
Today it is a crosswind landing on runway 27, the captain really greased it and put it down nicely in the touchdown zone, as always making it look so easy, when it really isn’t.
So, enjoy the main event today and il quickly report back after landing!
And we have arrived at London City Airport, a quick 45 minute turnaround and then back home to Zurich.
The definitive decision isn’t taken yet by Swiss international, if this route will be continued by Swiss and its own equipment, or if Helvetic and other codeshare partners will take over.
As soon as a decision is made, I will make a video about it on this channel.
Thank you all for watching, the continuous support and all your messages, subscriptions, likes and comments you guys.
Hoping to reach 100K this year, let’s see if this milestone is reachable for me.
See you in the next video, cheerio
I'll never forget visiting London in 1987 together with my little daughter. It's such an impressiv city with so much history. History I'm so fond of...
Thank you, dear Dominic, for bringing up again a landing on that incredible airport. 💖🙂
Beautiful approach and landing. I'm always amazed how smoothly the pilots transition from descent into the flare, it's hardly noticeable.
Vielen Dank für die fantastische Aufnahme! Ich hoffe, dass die SWISS den A220 weiterhin auf dieser Route einsetzt...
I love plane spotting at London city airport
Very nice approach and landing
Amazing footage Dominic ! Its always a joy to watch your landing videos at London City airport 🙂
Thank you so much mate for your kind words! Glad you enjoyed yet another LCY one :)
More coming! Have a great evening, cheers, dom
I've only flown into LCY once on a BA ERJ190. Seeing the cockpit view on that RWY27 landing was awesome. Thanks!
I think this is the best video that highlights the approach angle, especially sped up, nice one! I've posted some front seat takes offs and landings from here, but still waiting to get a city view approach so hopefully will be lucky one day.
Fantastic video, sounds and sights!! I really enjoy these cockpit videos my friend, many thanks for sharing, stay safe brother!!
Have been following you for a few years now, glad to see you're still going :)
Thank you very much! Hope you will enjoy what’s coming in the future :)
Best regards, Dominic
Neat, tidy, professional.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the ride!
@@dnhug 👍
I live in Woolwich across the river which is two stops away on the DLR. So yes i have flown both Swiss and Lufthansa Zurich/Frankfurt to connecting flights to either Hong Kong or Singapore. I do love flying from or arriving at city airport as it so convenient, though with the Elizabeth line i dont mind flying direct from Heathrow these days.
Crystal clear footage in optimum weather. One of the best LCY landings I've seen BUT for the presence of that layer of pesky cotton wool balls.
@@t.p.mckenna cloud seeding
@@letsnotgettosilly no, that was Paris!
Yet again splendid footage as always Dominic! As always all the best, got to film you landing at LCY so if you have any scheduled for late August make sure to tell me in advance 😉 😎
I've tried LCY in MSFS 2020 and it is a real challenge! I have never managed to land it! Kudos to all of you real pilots, some people should try the closest thing to a real flight, with a (fairly close to) 'study level' aircraft like the Fly By Wire A320 NEO and see how difficult commercial flying actually is.....more so when you don't have a F.O in the cockpit next to you, and you don't have any CRM....it's all down to you as the PF to manage your own CRM!
Fantastic production Dominic! Impressive X-wind approach into LCY. Interesting apron procedure with the near 180 turn to park at the stand 😎✈️
Great landing.
Thank you!
😅thanks for the amazing landing. greetz:🍐Peer.😅👍👍👍👍
Bedankt Peerke!! Have a great week my friend
@@dnhug 😅Ha Dominic,U 2. laterzzzz.✈😅
Absolutely amazing Dom!! 😍✈️👍🏼🇬🇧 My next flight to London but LGW with Swiss will be on 16th August. Looking forward to the flight with an Embraer E195 of Helvetic and also to see my godfather in the UK! Cheers Matt
Very nice video and quality. It is the first time that I hear that it is unsure if SWISS will continue flights to London City - could you tell us more about that topic?
just missed the TDZ! I had no idea the airbus 220 tells pilot to standby and flare...
I thought the steep approach was to clear the city skyrise buildings. Since this landing was from opposite side, did it use the 5.5° approach? Never tired of these nice A220 videoshand-pink-waving.
Awesome capture! Would you mind if I featured this view in one of my upcoming episodes?
I'll be sure to credit your original video with a link.
Thanks a lot!
Hi there! Sure, looking forward to it!
@@dnhug Thanks
I could visually see that was a steeper than normal approach. I thought you could have just slipped it in, like you were piloting a Piper J-3 cub into a grass strip! That was a great approach, and the landing was just buttery smooth.
Yeah, when I saw the radio altimeter call out 1,000 that close I raised an eyebrow. I forgot about the steep approach required for LCY.
Just out of interest, can you see other than visually?
@@yowhy4305 With instruments it can be quite clear. A typical glidescope angle is 3 degrees. This works out to be roughly 700-800 feet per minute in an airliner. If you're keeping track of the glidescope indicator at more than 800 feet per minute at the typical approach speed of 140 knots, then it's steep. Headwinds and such will make it different, but that's a rule of thumb.
Another way is if you're 1,000 feet from the ground (assuming the terrain is flat), that's usually going to be around 3.5 miles from the airport tops. If your instruments tell you you're 1,000 feet from the airport at, say, 2.5 or 3 miles, then that's another indication you're going in steeper than usual. Again, that only works if your surroundings are flat. If you're landing in mountains or the airports on a plateau or valley, that wouldn't apply.
The turn on to the taxiway from landing seems almost immediate! Do the passengers feel any abnormal deceleration?
Captain wanted that exit, he knew the assigned stand we got assigned, and in the briefing that was done to discuss the landing, he decided for the optimal exit.
Pax felt the stronger braking, but nothing to get worried about. Thank you for watching and your comment! Best, Dominic
What’s abnormal deceleration?
He referred to a much stronger braking action on this landing then on others with regular approach paths and runway lengths. Cheers and thank you for watching,Dominic
Unique perspective! May I feature this steep approach and landing in one of my next episodes? Of course with a link back to your original video. Keep up the great work!
Hey mate! Sure, just like last time.
Best greetings, Dominic
Crazy thing is the morons calling my LCY footage MSFS2020 footage on your compilation video.
Cheers for the credits, dom
@@dnhug It just looks too good I guess 😉 Thanks for letting me feature it!
Curious if this aircraft is a -100 or -300? Also, I’ve always wondered how frequently London City Airport has landings that have to go around because the touch down was late?
It's a 100, the 300 doesn't have approval for London City...
@@barryessex2779 Thanks!
It’s the -100 as Barry correctly pointed out. But : interestingly, if you check the ground markings at 6:06..? Maybe certification is on the way. To answer your question, go arounds are still rare, even at LCY. In my 23 years I had around 5 of them at City. Thank you for watching!
@@dnhug Love the A220… especially enjoyed your cockpit video of the short takeoff with the empty plane. That was amazing. Thank you for replying! 👍👍👍
What was the registration?
I don’t know anymore.
Couldn’t tell, honestly.
Best regards, Dominic
Was that an ILS landing or manual? 👍
This was a manual landing.
Thank you for watching, best regards, Dominic
😅the uk nice country,but they driving on the left site,not good,🤣
Nah. Not so great , better scenic view when you land on rwy 9 ! 😜
Ok, then you will be happy to hear that I have filmed that approach and landing as well.
Hope to see your comment soon on that video!
Best regards, Dominic
