Vacation in Crete last year. Wonderful memories on this island. New subscriber to your channel. Thanks for everything and keep going. An A320 french newbie flight simmer.👍👍
A very nice video, very professional flight crew, perhaps one day I will be allowed to have a holiday again in Crete, do not normally care for music but this one goes well with the video..
ive just got back from kato gouves and we used to watch the line up and gear lowering its so cool to see, from this view as you can see our hotel st Constantine and the Crete sea-life center
I am basically from India, living&working in Germany but I fall in Love with Greece❤🩵.... For the third time I am visiting this country, my most favourite, Vacation means for me Greece❤🩵
At 2:55 the plane flies over Kokkini Hani. I even see the supermarket where I used to shop when I lived in this "village". I really liked Crete, but even the prices in grocery stores, due to the peculiarities of logistics, hit the tourist budget a lot. Add to this the buses (large and air-conditioned) that run at any time, but not on schedule at stops. Lack of soups that my gastric stomach needs. And crazy heat. Before Crete, I spent the summer in Montenegro. And although a couple of times I was almost deceived by the locals, I want to come there a second time. The second time in Crete somehow do not want to.
I get why some folks *never* want the music, and I don't usually, but occasionally it makes for a more relaxing and chilled out viewing. And this time I definitely approve. Very pleasant. I wonder why the minimums are so high at airports like this. Lanzarote is the same. Anyone know?
Thanks for your feedback. The problem with the music is that the music I like may be completely different than the music some or most of the viewers like. We had lots of discussions about the music over the last years. So my decision was to produce new videos without any music and try to focus more on the cockpit audio. The minimums are high because this is a non-precision approach and they have higher minimums in comparison to ILS precision-approaches. Lanzarote has an ILS approach with a low minimum if you arrive over the water, if you arrive straight in over the island, the minimums are high because it is also a non-precision approach.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos - Thanks for the 'minimums' explanation. I guess I could always turn the sound down and have my own music, but your choice on this video is pretty inoffensive I would have thought. It's not like it's 'death metal' or something. 😱 Anyway, I love your videos and I'm happy I discovered your channel.
A short while ago, we recorded the same approach again with 4 cameras, showing the pilots and the outside views. Here is the link: th-cam.com/video/Nkud0VNvLqA/w-d-xo.html
For me, just the facts are counting! Landing was in the touchdown zone and the runway is very long. The overall distance was shorter than precalculated by us in the cockpit.
"Winds form southerly directions with more than 20 knots make the approach even more difficult: Due to the rising terrain south of the aerodrome, the wind may be very gusty and cause severe turbulence in this case." This is thank god quite rare - Prevailing winds on the island are N-W-N to only N.Southerly winds may occur in the winter months....
Despite having flown into and out of Heraklion and/ or Chania on an almost annual basis, I clearly remember my first visit to the island and my first approach to R27 back in August of 1990 - as we started the final parallel to the coast it was so beautiful outside, but according to our pilot (Flying a Britania 757 - 200) - misleadingly so.... his final cabin call was to let us know that "due to a southerly wind it will more than likely get very bumpy as soon as we get below the mountains, so please make sure (etc etc). As I spend most of the time in the Islands west I had no idea this weather feature was so rare in summer but, especially being only 12 years old it was one of the coolest approaches and touchdowns ever, the aircraft feeling like it was progressively dropping in increments towards the causeway through spoiler use as opposed to a set descent rate and / or use of a glide slope. Its crazy how these details stay with one for 30 years and I will miss the NK Heraklion Airport when it closes and moves south to Kasteli Airfield....
Back in the stone ages, late 1970s, this was a routine stop for us in USAF AirEvac in the C-9A Nightingale. I loved this stop and many others in the area. But one day, we had a scary toward the town. Starting Takeoff roll from the cliff end we had a headwind, but by liftoff it was tailwind! It was CLOSE!😗 And we all could hear it in our voices and the tower controller’s voice! Don’t worry folks, there was nothing to see. 😎
Thanks for watching and for sharing your very personal experience! The winds can be very challenging at Heraklion. It's great to hear that you finally got the bird into the air! Have a nice day!
Doch, es ist immer noch üblich. Allerdings sind im Video aus Datenschutzgründen die Callsigns entfernt worden. Der Rest ist unverändert. Ich bitte um Verständnis.
If I wanted to hear music I would have chosen a music video. Part of the excitement of watching this kind of videos is because people want to hear the roar of the engines and all the background sounds at the cockpit (which they don't in this video). Sorry but fingers down from me and aa grade of 3/10.
Thank you for your feedback! This video was published a while ago. Due to the feedback form viewers like you, music is completely withdrawn on the newer videos. Instead the focus is on communication in the cockpit, air traffic control or (if available) the ATIS recording. I suggest you watch this video: th-cam.com/video/Nkud0VNvLqA/w-d-xo.html This shows the same approach to Heraklion, recorded recently with several cameras, no music and the original audio from the flight. Please let me know if you like that better. Here is a playlist with the newest videos which show outside views, pilots at work and the original audio from the flights: th-cam.com/play/PLa2FUXnb0gRBWKIahxrhiYXs8nIQvcvYd.html Thanks again for sharing your thoughts!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos The new video is a miles better than the original one, well done. Now we can hear the engines and the cockpit conversation. Thank you!!!
I am the person who put the music over it. This was long time ago. My newer videos contain no music anymore and feature the original cockpit audio instead. Here is a video of an approach to Heraklion without music th-cam.com/video/Nkud0VNvLqA/w-d-xo.html
Danke fürs Feedback! Die neueren Videos haben aufgrund ähnlicher Rückmeldungen keine Musik mehr und der Ton-Fokus liegt mehr auf der Kommunikation im Cockpit und mit der Flugsicherung. Hier ist ein später aufgenommenes Video vom Anflug zur Landebahn 27 auf Heraklion ohne Musik, dafür mit Cockpit-Audio und Video. Produziert mit mehreren Kameras: th-cam.com/video/Nkud0VNvLqA/w-d-xo.html
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Sehr schön, denn die Video`s sind richtig gut und die Musik lenkt nur ab. Danke und weiterhin viel Erfolg. Ich bin dabei!!
Thanks for the valuable feedback! My newer videos contain no background music anymore and provide ATC- and cockpit-communication and ATIS (Automatic Terminal Information Service) audio instead.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Because of the feedback from the viewers, my newer videos have no music anymore. Instead the focus is on the cockpit communication. Please checkout these videos and tell me how you like them Thank you and have a nice day!
Thanks for the feedback. I like videos with music much more, But due to your request and the request of others, I will publish my next videos without music. Thank you again!
@@judsonwall8615 No, I love this channel but this music is inappropriate. Most people who look for this kind of channel are keen on aviation and want to hear the real sounds of the plane. Background music seems like you're not that interested in the content and need music to keep your attention. Music is great for some videos but not aeroplanes.

Thank you so much for watching and for being a new subscriber for my channel! Have a great day!
The view of this approach is just outstanding. If i were the pilot i would land there everytime :)
I agree, it is a really nice approach with great views! Have a good day!
In august we have been full 3 weeks on crete. Discovered the whole island. No clouds at all, clear blue sky the whole vacation. 😊
That sounds good! Thanks for sharing your feedback about the island!

Hi John! Thank you very much for the great feedback!! I hope that you will be able to travel to Crete again very soon!
Ich wuchs dort auf, gerade in der Nähe. Ein schönes Video! Vielen Dank aus Berlin 😁 ich wünsche euch immer sichere Flüge Fly Safe 🌼
Vielen Dank für das freundliche Feedback und alles Gute!!
I was just there last week, Crete is beautiful and loading off the plane, directly onto the tarmac was a great experience.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
ive just got back from kato gouves and we used to watch the line up and gear lowering its so cool to see, from this view as you can see our hotel st Constantine and the Crete sea-life center
Thanks for watching and the personal report from Crete! Have a great day!

Amazing video! Greetings from Rethymnon
Thanks!
love this and the music is wonderful - what is the music please?
I do not remember about the music. It came from the TH-cam music archives which is provided fron TH-cam for the video creators.
Excellent
Thank you!
Klasse, sehr schönes Video
Vielen Dank für das gute Feedback!

heel mooi
Thanks!!!
Best job in the world, seems to me.
You are really right! Best job with the best views, especially in good weather conditions.
For me wasthe landing very late but it was very smooth🧈🧈🧈
My opinion is different: The landing was not late. The landing was early enough in the touchdown zone.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos ok for me it looked like that soory
For me, just the facts are counting! Landing was in the touchdown zone and the runway is very long. The overall distance was shorter than precalculated by us in the cockpit.
But you did a great job landing there our landing was not so smooth we had to go around that was not cool!

Ist es nicht mehr üblich, bei Freigaben der Flugsicherung das Callsign zu nennen?
Doch, es ist immer noch üblich. Allerdings sind im Video aus Datenschutzgründen die Callsigns entfernt worden. Der Rest ist unverändert. Ich bitte um Verständnis.
Schöne Landung Digga♥
