As far as i know, USA and Canada authorities don't recommend this action, for safety reasons. But for sure in small and remote airports, this is very common, also because of the lack of pushback tractors.
Pedro, I am not sure what you mean with reverse thrust ? I do not see impingement panels to reverse the thrust like for jet engines. I think they just reverse the rotation direction ? Interesting compilation !
The ATR-72 is a turboprop powered aircraft. These type of aircrafts can push themselves backwards by reversing the airflow from the propeller blades. Modern turboprop aircrafts comes with variable-pitch propellers. These prop blades can change their pitch angle according to the required conditions. When the power lever is pulled back to Reverse zone, it will cause the propeller to move into the Reverse Pitch. It will cause the air to flow forward, thus pushing the airplane backwards.
@@MadeiraAirport Yes, good explanation ! I think I got it now. I remember that the fans in big aircoolers also have pitch angle adjustment for blades. 👍🙏
For sure, lot quicker. There's nobody guiding because this pilots are very used in Madeira, and where they park there's plenty of space also, and Madeira is not so busy :)

👀 Nice.
Cant wait for my flight to Madeira tomorrow! 😄😄😄
I will let you know by the end of the day if I can go to the airport :)
Very helpful feature on those aircraft ! Nice upload mate
Thanks so much my friend!
Wonder if those ATRs come equipped with backup cameras. Outstanding production. Love that blue Atlantic Ocean in the background.
The atlantic at the back is always amazing!
They are very used to this in Madeira, no help is needed, because they have spare space.
Wow no pusher love both of them 😮😮
Thanks for the visit!
Powerback looks so good! I love that!
It's so good to watch, and how quick the plane start and line up!
interessting , never have seen something similar
Not so common out there, perhaps in Madeira this is allowed, but not in the most of the airports!
Wow never seen this before here in Canada, LIKED!

Looks very nicE!
Thanks so much for watching :)
another good video from you pedro 🤗🤩👍🛫
Thanks so much for watching and commenting my friend!
Excelente... saludos desde Venezuela
Muchas gracias amigo :)
Nice work
Thanks for the visit mate, glad you liked!
So so so coool man!! Awesomeness 😎 ATR 🔥🔥
I know you will like this one :)
It is odd watching planes do that by themselves, great video aswell!
Thanks a lot mate, it's very common here, but i know that in many airports this is not allowed.
@@MadeiraAirport Oh that's different for it to be common, for the likes of Christchurch the just do a U turn
Whaaat! Pretty cool! Like the name:'Guarapo"...
Guarapo is very common in the Canary Islands, but in Madeira we also drink some, specially with some Rum added :)
Lindo!
Muito obrigado amigo Rui!
Perfect ❤️❤️
Thanks so much for watching!
Madeira Airport Spotting no problem
Wow so cool! :)
Thank you! Cheers mate :)
Sketchy! I am sure the insurance companies would hate to see that lol
Its a safe procedure, if made well :)
Awesome video mate... wow crazy how do they know where there going though... keep up the great work 👍🏻😃
They don't have any ground staff helping and no mirrors 😂
@@MadeiraAirport i know crazy
Tempo fechado,sem teto é complicado,ali aonde ele faz a volta pra decolar não enxerga nada por causa da neblina!
Estava um pouco de neblina e poeiras no ar, mas tinha visibilidade suficiente :)

If that was the case, you would see the propellers stop and then start rotating in the opposite direction, which does not happen in the video above

@@pedroramos3402 Yes, you are right. The propellers can not stop at once and turn in opposite direction, they will break !

Interessante!
Os ATR da Azul e da Passaredo também o devem fazer em alguns aeroportos, é muito útil para poupar tempo e recursos.
@@MadeiraAirport,sim com certeza em aeroportos de pouco movimento tavez! más é curioso ver tal manobra!
@@MadeiraAirport ,falando em azul, ela foi eleita a melhor companhia aérea do mundo em 2020 pelo site da Tripadvisor!
@@luizpereira3083 Pois foi , um grande resultado para a Azul, que assim ficou a ser ainda mais conhecida pelo mundo todo!
Legal.
Muito obrigado por assistir!
Ich dachte Eigenständig Rückwärtsrollen wäre seit Jahrzehnten verboten in der Verkehrsfliegerei!?
Es ist in Düsentriebwerken nicht erlaubt, aber in Turbohelices ist es hier auf Madeira normal
Tu já gravaste 1 mas agora são 2😂💪👍
Quase todos os dias estes fazem a mesma manobra, fiz esta compilação porque tinha muitos pedidos de seguidores :)
Nicr
Thanks for watching :)
Stupefying to see it reversing with no ones behind guiding pilots.. the bonus you gain time in departure process...
For sure, lot quicker. There's nobody guiding because this pilots are very used in Madeira, and where they park there's plenty of space also, and Madeira is not so busy :)
that's what planes ought to do at the airports that aren't as heavily congested as places like ATL, Denver, SFO, LAX or any other major airport.
Thanks for your comment :)
