Virgin Australia 737-800 Landing at Newcastle's Williamtown Airport. Flight DJ1593 Seat 21A. May 13, 2012. Begins with high flyover of Sydney and cruise past Central Coast.
Yeah I don't mind some action on the landings either. :-) The cam is just the cam on my phone, a Samsung Galaxy S2, which is a decent 1080P cam similar to the one the iPhone 4S. The sound quality probably isn't great but the vid on the A320 I did the day before had no sound issues at all. I think there just might be a bit of a 'hot spot' bad sound zone if you hold it too close to windows or the interior on phone cams which would have lesser sound quality.
Yeah! It did seem fast, if you listen he powers up just after the road too, we came in pretty red hot, thus the long reverse thrust. My missus sitting next to me flies a lot and she said the same thing, that we picked up a lot of speed just before touchdown. The sound is odd, must be holding cam too close to interior trimming, I only get it on Virgin 737s for some reason? lol, Thanks for the comments.
The volume does seem loud! Same mike and sound settings as normal on camera and editing, I'm finding I often get distortion and noise when seated in that proximity of the 737's, hmm I dunno. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comments Mikey.
Personally, I enjoy those hair-raising landings! Whilst on holiday in Australia, we flew from Melbourne to Sydney, flying through a thunderstorm and then on finals in some pretty breezy conditions- that was an experience I'll not forget in a hurry! As for the camera, that may be the case. Which camera do you use? :)
That could well be the case actually. I used the camera on my HTC Wildfire S, which isn't the greatest at the best of times, but there was some sound distortion when I got close to the window and interior around it. Is the S2 worth getting?
Looked a bit fast on the final approach immediately before touchdown? Anyway, great video! I assume the camera is creating the sci-fi effect from the engines? :)

lovely weather for flying by the look of things. The volume seems very loud? Anyway nice landing.

The flight was from Melbourne, yeah.
I would recommend the S2 for sure.
