In the cockpit with Condor to Madeira!

- In this video we join a Condor A321 crew in the cockpit to Madeira’s Cristiano Ronaldo Airport (FNC) and back to Frankfurt.
We get a behind-the-scenes, exclusive and up-close look at not only what goes into landing at Madeira in some tricky weather, including planning for diversion points, but also at what an entire duty day for a Condor crew looks like, joining them for the return to Frankfurt as well.
And this one is extra special because we have Pascal Schmidt of TH-cam channel AeroNewsGermany in the First Officer’s seat; and it just so happens to be his last A320-family flight before transitioning to the A330NEO. Check out his channel here: / @aeronewsgermany
This one is jam-packed full of flight deck activity and action including two takeoffs, two landings, briefings, enroute weather reports, and even lunch. Plus much much more. We hope you enjoy!

AeroNewsGermany + Flightradar24 = nice
Yes, indeed - a great Match!😃👍
You can't have Christmas and Easter together ... oh yes you can :D
Fr😊
I love these more technical videos, where it's not just "big thing go brrr" but instead there's a lot of discussion how to chose alternates, what they're doing during the flight, how they're briefing for potential dangers, the walkaround, etc.
It’s a German episode with Pascal Schmidt so what else did you expect hehehe 😉😀
This guy flew me to greece this summer. He‘s amazing.
Indeed.
He is so smart! 😊
Unser Lieblingsflorist 😀😀👍👍👍 mega cooles Video 😀
Ja, auf der Insel der Blumen!😃👍🌹
A running joke, still running ;-)
Was war der Auslöser? Da war jemand, der ihm ähnlich sieht, oder? Aber lustig und nett gemeint. Und er weiß, dass es so gemeint ist.
@@richard--s er wurde auf TH-cam beim streamen von einem Flug immer wieder gefragt ob er echter Pilot ist und irgendwann hat er zum Spass gesagt, dass er Florist sei.. 😂👍
@@claudea9037 OK danke, wenn das der Ursprung ist.
@@richard--s Pascal hat in irgendeinem Video vor Jahren auch einmal gesagt: "Wenn Ihr mich in einem Blumengeschäft in München gesehen habt - das war ich nicht."
Endlich gibt es den Floristen auf Englisch
Ja, und gut ist er
😅
vor allem echt ! 🙂@@stephan6998
Gabriel - this was a masterpiece, really. The detailed view together with right amount of technical talk and pictures which will remind me of flying is still a dream - keep the good mood!
Thank you very much!
Aeronewsgermany ❤❤❤
What a professional crew
Those strips are soo unique, I love it brillant video!
Wer kommt auch von Aeronewsgermany???
@@Andi_1337 Hier, verfolge aber FR24 schon länger.
What are strips?
@@Eurobazzcondors new livery, it’s stunning
I love that they tell the passengers what's going on. A few of my friends are scared of flying partially since situations like go arounds made them think they had a near end experience. At this point explaining doesn't really help but they're much more chill with talkative pilots tho. Thank you :)
Look!
West Texas here
The passenger updates, particularly around what might happen at the airport, are excellent and much appreciated by new flyers in to Madeira.
Yes really great.
Its nice to see Pascal support small TH-cam Channels like this
Condor is a really underrated airline.
Thank you very much for providing Pascal´s A 320/321-Farewell-Flight! Very impressive at any moment!😀💙💛❤
Love this - and the first officer is so handsome ❤
This should have way more views. As a flight student this gives me even more drive to get into a cockpit!
I have never flown with Condor but they seem to be a very slick professional airline. Another great video Gabriel.!!!
but they have the worst customer service !!!
Vielen Dank für das tolle Video. Condor-Pilot Pascal wünsche ich für die Zukunft auf der Langstrecke mit dem A330 Neo alles Gute💗 ich verfolge ihn schon lange auf seinem Kanal Aeronews Germany.
The Final approach was so beautiful!
The captains landing message was absolutely on point. Well done sir
Enjoyed that 👏👏
Like everyone else it felt like we were on the flight deck. In fact with all the extra info from your friend the FO it felt like we were along for his check ride. What I loved was the planning ahead for plan B, then another plan B. Thanks and stay in close contact with the wonderful people with Condor to let us ride along in your jump seat. Thanks , Jim
Flew with Condor a few weeks ago. Loved the regular updates from the pilot... Unlike some certain airlines now, where they don't even give you preflight briefing or welcome speech.
No welcome speech??? 😮

I knew it was him from the thumbnail 😊
More than 730 now.

Thanks Gabriel and Condor for the fab insight into why flights to Madeira can be so challenging!'
This video has answered many concerns I have had before considering a flight to Funchal.
Pascal explained very clearly that based on the weather conditions they were carrying enough fuel to divert to two other airports.
I presume that with the surname Furtado the pilot was Portuguese, adding weight to the fact that only pilots proficient in landing at Funchal are allowed to control planes for take-offs and landings.
An excellent video.
Many thanks.
This is one of the best aviation videos Ive seen! Those guys loves their job. Wonderful people
Thank you!
You excelled yourself Gabriel. The best one yet. More cockpit detail than ever. I would certainly fly with Condor but unlikely as I live near LBA. Looking forward to flying in an A321 when my local airline changes from 737s.
Love how the Captain communicated with the passengers during the flight. All the information given is something I would love to know during a flight as a passenger. Well done!!
Das is ja Pascal! 😃🙏
Ja.
Wow. What a video!
Thank's for the possibility to share this "thrill" with the crew.
That's the kind of quality I am also used to from Pascal's own content (on a totaly other layer, of course). Seems "worthy" :D :-)
absolute masterpiece dropped here. 🙌🏼 Loved it.
Very interesting video with an unusually good amount of procedural and technical detail. A great crew and some excellent camera work in the cockpit.
Oh my grief! That landing approach from the sea to the runway is absolutely awesome! Not much room for for error! I would fly with those pilots anywhere! Please keep up the great videos
Enjoyed this immensely - good work FR24 and the Condor pilots and crew 👍
I’m here to say that Pascal is so cute! 😍
Theirs only a few aviation channels on this platform which in my mind blow the others out of the water, but Gabriel and his channel are clearly at the top, for content and also the technical side of aviation. Thoroughly enjoyable this along with all his other stuff he creates, keep it up sir and thank for sharing this experience.😊
I've been to Madeira many times and have never landed on 18, always 05 which is 'interesting'.
The 05 departure is amazing with the hard right as soon as you are airborne.
First time I went the pilot explained the departure and for passengers not to be concerned as the right turn was perfectly normal.
just an incredible video, thank you for sharing this experience !
This crossover between my two favourite TH-cam channels is like a dream come true!! Thank you so much for this video, I hope you guys will reconnect once Pascal is on the A330. Can't wait to see more of this!
Pascal ;)
@@leandercastella9925 oops that was a brainfart, it's edited now, thank you :)
We were in Madeira at the end of November, beginning of December. And on this special day of the Condor flight we were on the plateau "Pául da Sera" and experienced the maximum worst rain and storm we have had in Madeira during holidays in 10 years. The wind was so heavy that the rain came horizontally. And we had to find the curves with the help of the navigation system because you had no visibility. Thank you for this informative and well-researched video! And Trident (Portugal) gums are the best for situatioans like this 🙏🏻✈️🏖️💦
20:05 what a sweet french voice :)
I’m OBSESSED with your cockpit videos guys, so so cool. What a great crew.
Thx for this wonderful trip!
Pascal ❤
Wow, just by watching the first 3 minutes i know exactly that this is going to be an absolute masterpiece to watch
Wonderful. Thank You for showing.
Absolutely awesome what Condor & Pascal is doing for their coporate image at that times! The fleet & buisiness strategy is sooo good, and the motivation of their crew`s, too. Go on with this and you will earn the golden times. :)
Excellent video by flight radar 24, excellent crew demonstrating very good CRM and professional and helpful Portuguese ATC controllers on the approach sector who spoke excellent English
Danke für diesen Einblick! Absolut beeindruckend. Danke!
Great Video , been to Madeira this March for vacation, epic views out of the cockpit ! Great Crew ! Thank you !!
This was a fantastic video. Thoroughly enjoyed it!
Great vid, great crew, great experience!
Sensational good video. Both TH-camrs in one video, right in the cockpit, in an actual real flight.
Great video, thank you for the great work
Schön auf die Bahn gebuttert vom Pascal
What a fabulous crew. Wonderful video. Love it! Thank you 🙏
Great video. Lots of very enjoyable info. They made the landing in Madeira look so easy.
Absolutely brilliant video!!
Nice video. I love the technical detail. Really shows how busy pilots can actually be.
It's crazy the amount of planning and work that goes on before every single flight by just two people. Like yes big company helping them out if they need any info but the main people responsible to get you there who you think are just flying and configuring aircraft before you get on, are really planning all of this and it's just them two. The amount of work and checking plus even looking for back ups that far away is mental. Even the amount of checking throughout flight to check diversions etc with weather would think that would all be calculated before or automated. It is crazy the amount of work just the two you think are flying do. The detailed inflight announcement reminds me so much of being a kid as thomas cook use to do the same. I hate now that you are lucky you even get one mid flight... Have no idea where you are and when you might land its crap. How they fly blind that low too... Love these kind of videos something you don't see every day especially something like this with weather effecting it.
amazing video!
Congratulation, first as your jump of first officer into A330 and for the great video.
Nice flight - thank you for taking us with you! //
Another great video... thank you, Gabriel!
Great video, thanks for creating and sharing. Really professional crew too.
Hi Gabe, I enjoyed the flight; cool being in the cockpit...RogerC 12/20/23
What a fantastic crew
Great respect to Condor for offering a Thai curry on a flight to Frankfurt. But personally I'd have chosen something else... I eat it every day! 😄
I am soo grateful for this!
This is most likely the longest video that i've ever watched in this channel. Very amazing video👍
Excellent film. Very informative. Very professional flight crew. Thanks!
50:51 "Have Fun" - That's what I want to hear from a Captain :D
Thank you very much for this lovely video. ✈️ Great coversations and landing. 👍
Another enjoyable and amazing video and such a nice crew. Thank you so much.
I love to see how they oparate in the cockpit and especialy pascal.
Those valleys bring a lot of wind. Amazing landing. 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
amazing video, great crew!!!
Your videos are top notch as always!
This is the best "cocpit cannel" at the moment for sure. Keep going same way to the future. Captain and FO are clearly real professionals in this video.
Excellent video, very informative
i wish more airlines would tell the cabin things like altitude and speed it’s super cool
Wonderful video, thank you 😊
Many years ago, as a simulator engineer in the 1980’s , I was tasked with producing a simulated visual model for the approach to the “old” Madeira airport - before the runway was extended and when there was just one VOR beacon. I got to fly on the flight deck of a 737-200 so I could take photos. The final approach was “interesting”, requiring a precision turn over the beacon at 140 knots to achieve the correct runway heading and a final check of “1500 ft over the banana packing shed”. We had to refuel on the way back to keep the weight low for take off on the 5200 ft runway!
Da hat sich unser Pascal aber gefreut. Super Video!
Best guy we've got in the german Aviation-Bubble ❤
Excellent video, subbed!
Condor, das war Werbung für euch auf dem höchsten Niveau!
Really enjoyed the video 🎉❤
Magnificient video mate of my local airport, once again thanks for bringing this video
Great video Gabrielll❤
What an amazing video!
Gelesen Video, bin sehr begeistert, weiter so !
Great video! :-)
Prob the best cockpit video out there atm.
Quick question for the pilots , why was the ETP so close to Madeira on the ND
Amazing landing
Best Aviation video I have ever seen!
Condor! Wir lieben fliegen!
Fantástico! Mehr of this bitte!!! 😊
Fabulous!
