So you came to Gran Canaria the day we had a problem with one ATR72. She suffered a tyre burst on landing and the 03L was close around three hours. You can hear some comunications about this incident with vehicles entering the runway for inspections.
Very interesting as usual Stefan, thank you. I flew into Gran Canaria (Binter Canarias ATR from Madeira) last year and it was the same yellow dust in the air blowing in from Africa except it stretched all the way down to the ground. The taxi driver was very annoyed because he was going to have to wash it off his car again!
Thanks for watching and for sharing your experience! I agree, the dust is not really nice. Restricting the view and making the cars dirty. Have a nice day!
Excellent video! Binter ATR72 tire burst hence runway 03L closed. Worked on the ground in LPA in the late 80’s and 90’s…. Good to see my former home aerodrome!
Thanks for watching and your good feedback! Also thanks for the information about the Binter airplane on runway 03L. We did not know what happened. We just got the information about the closed runway and saw the plane with some vehicles on runway 03L.
Fascinating to see the sand/dust above the boundary layer. Having spent my career (now retired) working on Europe's weather satellites, it's good to see from the cockpit what we can clearly see from the satellite's orbit.
I'm not commenting much on TH-cam. But let me say "Thank you" for these videos. I am fascinated by aviation primarily for the cockpit procedures that guarantee a successful landing. ("You can alsways go around!") And in this video I found a tiny bit of good airmanship from the captain, when he casually asked the pilot monitoring wether he had contacted approach already. (He hadn't.) It was the tone that implcated that the captain had missed it. (He didn't.) This is the way leadership looks like. Thank you!
Vielen Dank fürs super Feedback! Bitte allen luftfahrtinteressierten vom Kanal berichten! Please tell everybody who likes aviation about the channel! Thanks in advance! Vielen Dank vorab dafür! Einen schönen Tag noch! Have a great day!
Hello Cpt. Another great approach video from Gran Canaria.👍 Worked at Playa del Ingles for a few years. Gran Canaria was my home for a few years. A super nice visual approach with swing.🤩 Flown great. What makes me particularly happy is that the cabin crew is shown at the end. Great photo, thanks 😄 With this in mind, I wish you and your crew a nice week. Greetings from Styria 🤗 Werner

We have had several holidays on Gran Canaria so I got excited when I saw this video in the list on TH-cam. It was once again a real experience to see the approach from the cockpit. Smooth landing again and the external video of your aircraft was a bonus. Thank You Captain 👍✈️
A Binter Canarias Avions de Transport Regional ATR-72-212A, registration EC-MVI performing flight NT-501 from Lanzarote,CI to Las Palmas,CI (Spain) with 69 passengers and 4 crew, landed on Las Palmas' runway 03L when the crew noticed a slight deviation to the left of the runway center line and re-aligned the aircraft with the runway center line, however, noticed the deceleration was more rapid than expected. The aircraft stopped on the runway center line. An inspection of the aircraft on the runway revealed abrasion damage to tyres and wheel rims of the main gear.
Thanks for the detailed report about what happened on runway 03L before our landing on runway 03R. This explains why runway 03L was closed on a short notice. Have a nice day!
Thanks for your good feedback! They closed runway 03L because it was blocked by an airplane. You can see that zoomed in at the end of the video during our debriefing.
First of all: Thank you very much for financially supporting the channel through your PLATINUM membership!!! I appreciate your good feedback! Have a nice day!
Fantastic! Great & interesting to see how you handled the switch of the runway, as well as the short briefing for the new approach again. I was just wondering why you turned the bird on the visual approach on. What advantages does the bird give you, while flying visually? Thank you for uploading & I'm happy to support your channel now! Can't wait for the next one 😍😀
Thanks for being a member and for your financial support of the channel! We usually use the bird when flying raw data with the flight directors and the autopilot off. The bird gives us a good information about the lateral track and vertical path of the airplane. The blue line above the bird is our preset runway track and the middle of the bird shows the actual track. Please watch the video again and have a close look to the bird. You also can see that our descent path is about 3 degrees. Have a wonderful day!
Thx for this very interesting and busy approach due to late runway change ... I like your copilot who foregot to call tower in final due to worload probably ;)
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I do not think that he forgot to call the tower. There was other, more important stuff to do. We work in the order Aviate, Navigate, Communicate. So communication with ATC comes last.
Excellent video's thank you Sir, I 'fly' the A320 NEO in Microsoft Flight Simulator, and your video's have taught me a lot, especially around the the MCDU. Thank you again.
Yet another phenomenal video! Looked like a beautiful day, very nice approach. What a positive work environment, such a happy team - laughing and smiling but constantly professional. I was wondering, what system was causing the beeping noise during your PA? I’ve watched all your videos and it’s not a sound I recognise. I’d also be interested to know if you work regularly with this Co-pilot, as you seemed to have a great rapport. Thought the PM handled ATC well, did I understand him correctly - they contacted you too soon after touch down while you were still in the “high speed phase”? Finally, it’s probably best I stick to occasional simulator and don’t take flying lessons… even with beautiful clear skies I couldn’t identify the runway until you went flaps full! 😳😂 Thanks for another great video, I always look forward to seeing them.
Thanks for watching and for your very good and detailed feedback! I also heard that beep during the PA. It may have several sources, like the emergency radio frequency 121.5 which we constantly monitor. The crew complement usually changes every working day. Sometimes, 2 pilots fly together a few days a month. We can request to fly with a certain pilot for the whole duty plan. But I usually do not do that. There is no rule when ATC can talk to us during the high speed phase on the runway. But here it was a little early because we were still very fast and both had to concentrate on the deceleration of the airplane. The call had no urgency. In the videos, the runway is way more difficult to see than in real life. This is due to the wide angle lens of the cockpit camera. Also, the resolution of the human eye is much better than a 4k camera. If you like flying, I suggest that you go to your local flight school or a flying club to take an introduction flight. You will find out very fast, if the real flying is something for you. Have a great day!
Another wonderflu video. Shame we didn't get to fully see the sidestep approach but who can blame you for going visual? It looked absolutely beautiful. Thank you!
Thanks for the great feedback! I always prefer a visual approach when available. Usually it takes less flight time, saves fuel and produces less emissions. Also it is much more fun to fly a visual approach.
Ich schaue mir Ihre Videos immer gerne an. Habe nur eine PPL als Hobbypilot und ein Kollege von Ihnen von EW war einer meiner Fluglehrer. Mir gefällt wie Sie mit Ihren FOs kommunizieren. Falls es mal Videos von Dortmund gibt würde mich das freuen. Danke für die schönen Videos und Grüße aus EDLH.
Vielen lieben Dank fürs Anschauen und das gute Feedback! Wenn ich mal nach Dortmund geplant werde, versuche ich auf jeden Fall, ein Video zu produzieren. Liebe Grüße nach Hamm!
A pleasure to watch. As always! Keep up the great work :) And just out of interest: how many Cat. C airports are you allowed to fly to? Anything besides Samos and Madeira?
Thanks for watching and for your support as a member of the channel! There is no limit of CAT C airports per crewmember. But for scheduling purposes it is better not to have too many per pilot. Also it is needed to fly to the CAT C airports on a regular basis to stay current and proficient. As an example: I fly to 3 CAT C airports. Have a great day!
Nice landing and visual approach, well done! :) Really enjoyed the video. Question: Why do you have to wait for 3 minutes before doing single engine taxi?
You have to wait 3 mins for the engines to cool-down after flight before you shut them down. If the pilot uses full reverse thrust on landing, then it’s 3 minutes after they go to idle. If the pilot uses just idle reverse, then it’s 3 minutes after touchdown. Generally speaking, gentle taxiing does not rev the engines up enough to the point that you have to cool them down. But if, for whatever reason, you rev the engines up too much during taxi, then another 3 minutes should be added before shutdown. The cool-down time can differ based on the engines installed on the aircraft.
Great video as ever, love the level of detail you go into and how much you show us. Quick question if I may... What is the bird that you put on for visual approaches? I've not been able to find a sensible answer on google :(
Thanks for watching and your good feedback! There is no ILS or LOC approach for runway 03R. That is also the reason for the special sidestep approach chart. I do not know what happened to the ATR.
As a 320 simmer, I learn a lot from your videos and it reflects very well on your company. It seems you prefer a visual approach, is that the preferred company procedure or what's the reason.
Visual approaches are usually shorter than instrument approaches. They save fuel, time and reduce emissions. In my opinion they also make more fun to fly.
Thanks for your good feedback! We always switch off the flight directors when we do not want to follow them. Here, the flight directors would have guided us to runway 03L. With the clearance for the visual approach for runway 03R we had to switch them off. The bird is just an additional piece of information which shows the current track in relationship to a preselected lateral track and it shows the current vertical path.
amazing approach i have landed here in flight simulator is a great approach but in the beginning it said 03L on your ND so ATC must have made it 03R instead
Thanks for watching! It always showed 03L on the ND. First it was the ILS and after ATC told us that we have to expect the localizer approach 03L sidestep 03R, it showed LOC on the ND. There is no instrument approach for 03R, so it continued to show 03L until touchdown on 03R.
Hi, thanks for the perfect video. I just have one question. You used the Tiller on roll out with a GS of about 57 knots. Is it allowed to use the tiller at this high speeds? I thought maximum will be 30 knots. Regards Robin
I moved the hand from the sidestick to the tiller after the touchdown. During the high speed phase of the rollout, I used the rudder pedals as main control to keep the plane on the centerline. Wihen becoming slower, I transitioned to the tiller as main control for the nose gear.
Hach, LPA. Jeden Februar muss ich dahin. Ich zum spotten, Frauchen in die Sonne. Immer wieder schön dort und interessanter Traffic, wenn man etwas Glück hat.
It seems that there are two sets of permanently rigged arrester wires on 3R, one of which is just after the TD point. I'm surprised that you can just drive over them - is there really no danger of tire damage?
Great observation. The first arresting wire was below the runway surface. The second one is above the surface. We wanted to avoid the second one or taxi over it with very slow speed. We performed the landing and the takeoff in accordance to that.
If you watch our debriefing at the end of the video, you will see a zoomed picture taken from our landing view. It shows the aircraft on the parallel runway with the emergency vehicles from the airport.
When you are in the flare for the landing and during the takeoff until the airplane is completely airbone. In all other cases, we switch off the flight director if we do not want to follow the commands.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos and I watched many of your videos, and sometimes you touch on the marcs and sometimes no. So the marcs are not important ?
Guten Morgen. Für den Co-Piloten war das ja ein relativ stressiger Final, der aber souverän gemeistert wurde. Lag es am visual approach, dass es keinen Ausruf "Land" gab?
„land“ bezieht sich auf das FMA. Da mit Flight Director off geflogen wurde, gab es auch kein FMA (außer Speed für den ATHR) und somit auch keine Notwendigkeit für einen Callout.
The bird shows in addition to the normal indications track and flightpathangle. Standard mode is just heading and vertical speed. The bird is a good help especially for raw data and visual approaches because it shows the track and the flightpathangle.
I thought you were landing 3 left given your setup and what I could see, it clearly reads 3lz but you arrived on the right! Maybe I missed something and I cannot recall any last minute changes, maybe I go back and watch again. It seems you followed the glide for the left and landed right. How strange you landed on the right runway when programmed for left. Just saying nothing else. Maybe go back and see what I missed.
We did the setup for an ILS approach for runway 03L. This was in accordance to the ATIS at that time. If you listen to the ATC transmissions, you will hear during our descent that later we had to expect an Localizer approach 03L, sidestep 03R. There is a special approach chart for this approach available. The pilot monitoring entered the approach in the MCDU. You can see the change of the approach type at the top of the navigation display. Before starting the final descent of the Localizer approach, we got a reclearance for a visual approach 03R. At this moment, we lined up for runway 03R and switched the flightdirectors off. There is no direct instrument approach publshed for runway 03R. And runway 03L was blocked by an airplane. This is the reason for the procedure.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thank you so much for being a true mentor. I've gone back a few times and yes you are quite right. Duh! Somehow things happen so quickly and smoothly that one can drift and lose focus! So love watching you videos. ⭐

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos yeah, that makes sense. Thank you for your quick answer!
Nice landing and visual approach, well done! :) Really enjoyed the video. Question: Why do you have to wait for 3 minutes before doing single engine taxi?
You have to wait 3 mins for the engines to cool-down after flight before you shut them down. If the pilot uses full reverse thrust on landing, then it’s 3 minutes after they go to idle. If the pilot uses just idle reverse, then it’s 3 minutes after touchdown.
Generally speaking, gentle taxiing does not rev the engines up enough to the point that you have to cool them down. But if, for whatever reason, you rev the engines up too much during taxi, then another 3 minutes should be added before shutdown.
The cool-down time can differ based on the engines installed on the aircraft.
Thanks for watching and your good feedback! Your question had been already answered. There is nothing to add.
Hi great video ! When you must stop watching the PAPI to touch on the marcs ?

Depends on airline SOP I believe. Each airline has different operating procedures based on maintenance etc.
I moved the hand from the sidestick to the tiller after the touchdown. During the high speed phase of the rollout, I used the rudder pedals as main control to keep the plane on the centerline. Wihen becoming slower, I transitioned to the tiller as main control for the nose gear.
Hach, LPA.
Jeden Februar muss ich dahin. Ich zum spotten, Frauchen in die Sonne. Immer wieder schön dort und interessanter Traffic, wenn man etwas Glück hat.
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das persönliche Feedback! Viel Spaß beim nächsten Besuch auf der Insel!
It seems that there are two sets of permanently rigged arrester wires on 3R, one of which is just after the TD point. I'm surprised that you can just drive over them - is there really no danger of tire damage?
Great observation. The first arresting wire was below the runway surface. The second one is above the surface. We wanted to avoid the second one or taxi over it with very slow speed. We performed the landing and the takeoff in accordance to that.
Didnt spot the emergency aircraft on the runway, but did spot that white/orange striped plane on tne apron - strange paint scheme!
Condor’s livery
If you watch our debriefing at the end of the video, you will see a zoomed picture taken from our landing view. It shows the aircraft on the parallel runway with the emergency vehicles from the airport.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Aye, that's what made me realise I didn't spot it 🙂
When we must stop following the Flight Director ? (Very sorry to ask you many many questions)
When you are in the flare for the landing and during the takeoff until the airplane is completely airbone. In all other cases, we switch off the flight director if we do not want to follow the commands.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos and I watched many of your videos, and sometimes you touch on the marcs and sometimes no. So the marcs are not important ?
Guten Morgen. Für den Co-Piloten war das ja ein relativ stressiger Final, der aber souverän gemeistert wurde. Lag es am visual approach, dass es keinen Ausruf "Land" gab?
„land“ bezieht sich auf das FMA. Da mit Flight Director off geflogen wurde, gab es auch kein FMA (außer Speed für den ATHR) und somit auch keine Notwendigkeit für einen Callout.
Genau, LAND ist ein sogenannter FMA callout. Wenn im FMA beim visual approach oder einem raw data approach nichts steht, gibt es auch keine Callouts.
What makes you choose between "bird" and whatever the regular mode is called?
The bird shows in addition to the normal indications track and flightpathangle. Standard mode is just heading and vertical speed. The bird is a good help especially for raw data and visual approaches because it shows the track and the flightpathangle.
Guten Tag, Kapitän. Ich möchte Pilot werden und Ihre Videos machen mich sehr aufgeregt. 😊
Das freut mich sehr! Dann wünsche ich Dir, dass das klappt mit Deiner Pilotenausbildung! Vielleicht sehen wir uns dann irgendwann im Cockpit.
Hi sir Stefan. Just curious though. Have you flown together with Andreas Lubitz before?
No
I thought you were landing 3 left given your setup and what I could see, it clearly reads 3lz but you arrived on the right! Maybe I missed something and I cannot recall any last minute changes, maybe I go back and watch again. It seems you followed the glide for the left and landed right. How strange you landed on the right runway when programmed for left. Just saying nothing else. Maybe go back and see what I missed.
We did the setup for an ILS approach for runway 03L. This was in accordance to the ATIS at that time. If you listen to the ATC transmissions, you will hear during our descent that later we had to expect an Localizer approach 03L, sidestep 03R. There is a special approach chart for this approach available. The pilot monitoring entered the approach in the MCDU. You can see the change of the approach type at the top of the navigation display. Before starting the final descent of the Localizer approach, we got a reclearance for a visual approach 03R. At this moment, we lined up for runway 03R and switched the flightdirectors off. There is no direct instrument approach publshed for runway 03R. And runway 03L was blocked by an airplane. This is the reason for the procedure.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thank you so much for being a true mentor. I've gone back a few times and yes you are quite right. Duh! Somehow things happen so quickly and smoothly that one can drift and lose focus! So love watching you videos. ⭐
Luckily Gran Canaria have 2 runways 😂
I agree! This is a big help. If one runway is blocked, you can just use the other one. Like we did here.
