really useful i start my TR with easyjet in a few weeks and these videos are going to help me loads. thanks for taking the time and effort. will look to access to perks
@@airbuswhatsitdoingnow320 I will be based out of Liverpool and just paid for the subscription (really well broken down for each subject).If there are any questions would it be ok to ask ?
@@airbuswhatsitdoingnow320 which videos of yours would you recommend I watch for the type rating. I’ve read the a320 study guide so should be ok for GS part but for the sims is there any of the videos that would be helpful. I’ve learned the sops and watched your video on the decent management which was very useful.
@@joshhutchinson9356 I’ve put together a couple of videos on DEM including the final stages making use of VS. There is also a topic on rotation rates and landing the airbus. Here I discuss the three phases which you will no doubt have heard of. If you need anything at all just drop me a line
Useful video.. Normally I have used GS x 5 (700 feet) or more exact 5.3 to get that 3 degree glide profile. So calculated GS of 140 would equal to about 742 f/m.. This headcount would be far more easier to do on the fly than doing GS * 1/60 * 6080 * tan(degree of the profile) which would only differ by 1 decimal compared. Perhaps I am confusing myself a bit in relations to the first calculations. I learned to figure out the distance you need to decend from a to b is: "Height you need to loose x 3 (as aircraft uses about 3nm to decent 1000feet)? Then of course adding +-10knots depending on tail og headwind?.. Example: FL100 down to 3000 feet = 7000 feet.. Then 7 * 3 = 21nm and if we have a 10knot tailwind we add 1nm to it (same as your calc) = 22nm . I see you do not have an reached altidue but rather an reached speed.. Perhaps this is my confusion, I do appologies for this but I will be very happy if you can elaborate on my confusion :) Thank you for your video
On A320. Let’s say you are at 38000 feet. Set the threshold of the runway that you are about to land. Distance x 3 = your actual altitude. I do that until 50 NM to touchdown. Then at 15000 feet equals 50 NM. After that I have a golden rules 40 NM = 10000 feet. 20 NM 5000 feet. 15 NM = 4500 feet. Of course below 10000 feet you are not gonna fly 300 kts unless ATC advise you to do so 😂.
Fantastic. Thank you very much 😊

It looks good in theory, but we don’t descent in V/S…….The V/S method works perfectly on the final part of the approach but.
Just think of it as a reference datum and descent in the most appropriate mode for your condition
