To be fair, there's a bit of an optical illusion (parallax view) effect on that first 777. The camera was further away and there was a small bluff in front of the camera. The 777 was higher above the threshold than the slight rise directly in front of the camera.
While you’re correct, the plane is still coming in way too low than usual. You’re supposed to be at 50 ft above the runway threshold when landing…. I’ll give that 20 ft above max.
I was in a hotel in Santa Teresa Rio de Janeiro , sitting at the veranda , overlooking the Pão de Açucar mountain and the runaway of Santos Dumont . Nice to see the opposite way 👍
Can someone in the know suggest what went wrong with the Lancair LX7? I can see from the caption that it lost a bit of runway due to the bounce - but apart from that it seemed to come in faster than expected for a light aircraft, and then didn't seem to slow down very much at all. Based on the engine note - the rpm didn't seem to change much - am I correct in thinking the pilot didn't cut the engine? I'm interested to hear an expert take please! Also, that seemed like a go-around would have easily saved the day (and a million dollar airplane), correct?
It looked like a downwind landing (I haven't checked if a windsock was visible) as the aircraft lost NO speed at all - and you're right, a go-around would have been the best choice.
I've seen that clip before. If I remember right, he came in to fast and should have just gone around. I think that was not his first attempt and he got frustrated and didn't want to go around again so he said f' it. Problem with standing on the brakes like that, when he locked up the wheels he lost most of his braking ability.
@@johnmorris7815 Ah. So it was correct that the engine revs didn't seem to drop, but the propeller pitch stayed in thrust instead of going into neutral or reverse? I guess maybe in that situation, once the pilot had selected the beta range, even though it wasn't happening it might have caused a decision-making conflict around whether to continue with the landing or to go around. If the prop-pitch actuators were malfunctioning there would be concern that neutral or reverse thrust could kick in at any moment (and after pulling the nose up, sudden loss of thrust could be catastrophic).
The autopilot wing movement, stabilising the plane...it was like watching an armoured cyborg albatross wing... Perfection. Mankind has mimicked and recreated the best of supernature.
1:51 i like this sentence structure, where you start with the "importent" part wich is what to look for in the clip, and then after that you give the aircraft data and follow up info. It's especially nice for us non-native english speakers that read a lot slower and some times have trouble reading all the text before it goes away.
How do you come up with 50 knots crosswind in the Swiss Clip? At the beginning you can see a wind of not more than 45 knots on the NAV display which equals a crosswind component of around 43 - 44 knots. And later on as they get closer to the runway the wind calms down to just round about 10 knots. And if you take into consideration, that the wind is coming from the front right, you get a crosswind component of round about 8 - 9 knots when overflying the runway treshhold. Not any second was there a crosswind of 50 knots during the whole clip
It is irrelevant what camera angle each was taken from. The first aeroplane was WAY below 50ft crossing the landing threshold. That makes it dangerously unstable, which should have lead to a go around.

At 0:46 into the video the plane on the runway appears to be in front of the tree which appears to be well off the freeway?? Edited video? What else might be altered?
The Aeroflot 777 wasn’t even that low, it is the perspective. The first clip is filmed from higher compared to the second clip which is almost at sea level and also different angle.
0:52 11 November 2023 ? "aircraft experienced pressurization problems shortly after reaching FL250. A rapid descent was conducted, and the airplane continued towards its destination. ... It overran the runway, and struck an occupied moving car on the road.
That didn’t look like a crosswind landing at all. At 50 knots of crosswind, the runway wouldn’t be at 12 o’clock. It would be visible out the side window.
Everyone in the comments: Mainly expert pilots Me: 1:55 reads "the autopilot" and thinks about "oh my god, the automatic pilot is deflating" lol. What a great movie.
The 787's autopilot fighting turbulence to keep the plane stable is doing more than just keeping the wings level. In the 787 the ailerons also act as "direct lift" devices to counter increases and decreases of lift due to up and downdrafts, thus smoothing the ride, acting like the suspension of a car.
It’s the flaperons and elevator which move to reduce the effects of turbulence. It’s called gust load suppression. Supposedly helps to reduce airsickness by a factor of 8! The ailerons are locked out at high speed, so the flaperons and spoilers provide roll control in the cruise.
@@RomeoJulietCharlie ... Thank you for correcting me. This "piece of control surface", that is, the "aileron" between the inboard flap and the outboard flap, was called "high speed aileron" in older models like the 727 and 747 (among others). And I am older so... 🙂. In those planes the outboard aileron (called "low speed aileron") was also locked at high speed and the "high-speed aileron" would do the rolling together with the spoilers. At low speed, high-speed aileron, low-speed aileron and spoilers would work together for roll control. The difference was that this high-speed aileron would not deflect together with the flaps when extending them. In the 787 (and 777) it does, hence "flaperon", as you said. But we were both talking about the same control surface.
@@adb012 thanks for the info! I never did get to fly the 747. We were retiring it, unfortunately, so I went down the 777 then 787 route after about a decade on little Airbuses.

"Plane descends too low" to land. That would be underground. A 50 knot crosswind with the nose pointing straight down the runway. Amazing. No yaw. That flaperon was working really hard. So much work. And here's a plane taking off, filmed by the -hijacker- flight engineer.
There was NO 50 knot crosswind. If you check the instruments, the wind was from about 40 degrees to the right of the nose, 194 degrees at 11 knots, which means, there was virtually no crosswind, in other words, it was a piece of cake. At 50 knots direct crosswind, you see the runway off your side window and not directly in front of you.
Well, the crosswind on approach was ~45kt but during the landing itselft it was 10kt at most, so the title is kinda misleading and that's why there is almost no yaw. Crosswind limit on the B777 is 38kt so you'll never see an actual landing with 50kt crossind ;)
@@tomlee7956 I know it's a reference but I can guarantee you that no pilot would land in a 50kt crosswind. And in most cases airlines SOPs are inline with the recommendatios from the manufacturer

777 X-wind limit is 38kts - The wind direction/speed indicator on the navigation display shows 11kts of crosswind for that approach & not 50kts. Clickbait.
I did my UK PPL and I recall when training I did a landing in a small Piper tomahawk in Cardiff Main airport Wales UK and the cross wind weas so strong i actually lined up the runway through the passenger window until the last 200 ft, scary
The Lancair @ 0:50 the only option at this point is a "Go Around", the pilot should know from the calculations and landing performance charts that after a certain point there would not be enough runway to stop safely, the pilot just pushed a very bad position into an almost fatal one, bad choice.

1-The different position of the camera makes not a good comparison; 2-50 knots crosswind?; 3-those camber flaps always work a lot, even in normal conditions (the external ailerons only work at low speeds, nowadays), they are less powerful than external ailerons because of less momentum
Flaperon( I think). They are typically between the flaps, which are used during takeoff and landings, and the ailerons which are for banking during turns.
@@filster1934 it’s not a flapper-on. A flapper-on is an aileron that also moves down like a flap. The aileron on both wings move down in unison, creating more lift, just like a flap does. However, it still works as an aileron as well. Also, this is not located between the flaps and the aileron. They are located between the inboard flaps and outboard flaps.
2:00 little baby control surface. what is that even. too far out for a flap too far in to be an aileron. too small to be either. an Autoleron? very cool to watch.
Boeing has had this on the larger aircraft, starting with the B747. As well as the 777 and 787. I believe the 767 as well. Each wing has two ailerons. The normal one at the tip and the inboard one shown here. At higher speeds, usually 220 knots or higher, the outboard aileron locks in place and only the inboard aileron is used. Apparently, this helps against wing bending during flight and smoothens the ride. The quick movements in this video is due to fly by wire. The yoke is likely held still by the pilots. The computers are moving the aileron to maintain level flight.
@@harvey364 this is not a flaperon. This is an aileron. A flaperon is a combination of flap and aileron. Meaning it will droop down with the flaps as well.
@@rtbrtb_dutchy4183 Interesting -- thanks. Although not a 787 pilot, I've tried to research this and many people do call it a flaperon. It would make sense if it functions like a flap in any way, but maybe not on this plane? Let me know if you have an official source for the term used on the 787.
@@harvey364 well, I was wrong in regards to the 787 and the 777 as well it seems. I used to fly the 747 and that particular flight control on the 747 only acts as an aileron. The same is for the 767, which also only acts as an aileron. However, it seems the 777 and 787, that the fly by wire system does indeed have control over them so they can act as a flap and aileron combination. Which makes them indeed a flaperon.
Pause at 0:21 and measure the distance between engine and fence (not even ground). The engine diameter is around 3.3 meters. I clearly see that 2 engines can stack up and fit on top of the fence. This gives us around 6.6m, which is 20 feet.
The SWISS 777-300ER clip would have been more interesting if the camera had stabilized on the cockpit, instead of the landscape outside the cockpit screen. :-)
When we had rough air at cruise two things happened quickly....auto pilot turned off and speed was reduced. You let the aircraft go and gently corrected the pitch and roll.
I personally have never seen an plane crash on this channel for all the videos I have watched. @0:39 seems like a plane crash. WOW Hopefully no one got hurt badly. WOW

@@lbowskhe did not. The power lever broke. That’s also why he was too fast.
@@iMin00 Then why not put the prop in beta range as soon as he hit the ground?
It was only 10knots of cross by touchdown, wind is always stronger higher up.
Indeed. I paused the video and zoomed in. 10kts across at 50ft, zero wind at touchdown. Not exactly challenging!

@@lbowsk yeah, the yaw factor didn't look that severe. And I don't know of any plane that is certified for 50 knot crosswind.
great capturing.
We own you 4 seconds of aviation
50 kt crosswind? The nav display shows single digit wind velocity in the flare. 😂
1-The different position of the camera makes not a good comparison; 2-50 knots crosswind?; 3-those camber flaps always work a lot, even in normal conditions (the external ailerons only work at low speeds, nowadays), they are less powerful than external ailerons because of less
momentum
"Captain, you need to approach a but higher!"
"Oh, Phuket..."
What is the name of that "loose" part between the flaps shown moving at 1:58? (Apparently it is not really loose based on preceding caption...)
Inboard aileron.
Flaperon( I think). They are typically between the flaps, which are used during takeoff and landings, and the ailerons which are for banking during turns.
@@filster1934 it’s not a flapper-on. A flapper-on is an aileron that also moves down like a flap. The aileron on both wings move down in unison, creating more lift, just like a flap does. However, it still works as an aileron as well.
Also, this is not located between the flaps and the aileron. They are located between the inboard flaps and outboard flaps.
Nice video!
Nice video
0:37 To be fair to the pilot, it's hard to land when the heat index is 101105.
**in the ER*
Doc: What happened to you?
Patient: I got bopped upside the head with a 777 tire.
Doc: WTF
2:00 little baby control surface. what is that even. too far out for a flap too far in to be an aileron. too small to be either. an Autoleron? very cool to watch.
Boeing has had this on the larger aircraft, starting with the B747. As well as the 777 and 787. I believe the 767 as well. Each wing has two ailerons. The normal one at the tip and the inboard one shown here. At higher speeds, usually 220 knots or higher, the outboard aileron locks in place and only the inboard aileron is used. Apparently, this helps against wing bending during flight and smoothens the ride.
The quick movements in this video is due to fly by wire. The yoke is likely held still by the pilots. The computers are moving the aileron to maintain level flight.
It's called a flaperon. Read about it on Wikipedia for some cool info.
@@harvey364 this is not a flaperon. This is an aileron. A flaperon is a combination of flap and aileron. Meaning it will droop down with the flaps as well.
@@rtbrtb_dutchy4183 Interesting -- thanks. Although not a 787 pilot, I've tried to research this and many people do call it a flaperon. It would make sense if it functions like a flap in any way, but maybe not on this plane? Let me know if you have an official source for the term used on the 787.
@@harvey364 well, I was wrong in regards to the 787 and the 777 as well it seems.
I used to fly the 747 and that particular flight control on the 747 only acts as an aileron. The same is for the 767, which also only acts as an aileron.
However, it seems the 777 and 787, that the fly by wire system does indeed have control over them so they can act as a flap and aileron combination. Which makes them indeed a flaperon.
Pause at 0:21 and measure the distance between engine and fence (not even ground). The engine diameter is around 3.3 meters. I clearly see that 2 engines can stack up and fit on top of the fence. This gives us around 6.6m, which is 20 feet.
I think the Aeroflot 777 was fine; different camera angles distort the appearance.
Wow amazing
Это Аэрофлот, детка, они на Кату спешат.
Чё за Ката?
Pilots are awesome…. Most of them! ❤
At 0:55, I still can't believe there's a road at the end of the runway
Very cool! 😁👍
I appreciate that this is located in “Fuck it”, Thailand. Makes sense.
Strictly speaking that's not the autopilot manipulating control surfaces itself, but the flight computer simply maintaining stability.
The SWISS 777-300ER clip would have been more interesting if the camera had stabilized on the cockpit, instead of the landscape outside the cockpit screen. :-)
Hmmmmm, don’t think that was 50 kts of crosswind. During flare the wind was quartering down to less than 10.
When we had rough air at cruise two things happened quickly....auto pilot turned off and speed was reduced. You let the aircraft go and gently corrected the pitch and roll.
00:40 He Came in way to fast!!!!
Stood on that beach many times and lots of planes come in really low though I think that one takes the biscuit
The first pilot was like “my approach is off, Phuket”
The humble flaperon works extremely hard whilst passengers sleep comfortably on their seats.
That wasn’t 50 kts crosswind!
2:05 Ooooooooooooooooooo... AP working is ass off!!!
How come he decided to not land on the people?
Lancair was a throttle handle coming off. Not late braking
Why did the Boeing 777 300ER blush?
Because it saw the runway threshold and approached below it to fast!
I personally have never seen an plane crash on this channel for all the videos I have watched. @0:39 seems like a plane crash. WOW Hopefully no one got hurt badly. WOW
