    I remember being on a US Airways A321 once and man! The only time I knew when the plane had touched down was when I hear the reverse-thrusts. That was definitely not an auto-land. US Air pilots really do know how to land planes!

    textbook perfect landing! They greased that one right onto the runway!!! Mix of perfect power and pitch settings to get that one right! Awesome! Keep them coming! Mark in Iowa.

    Very nice! And the A319 is particularly difficult to land smoothly because it has a tendency to 'float' if you over flare - this pilot obviously knew his aircraft very well :)

  • @LegendxHD

    The autoland on the A320 series produces a real cruncher generally. Given the good weather conditions in terms of visibility, as well as the soft landing, this was definitely hand flown.

    Charlotte Douglas is US Airways' largest hub, so it seems like that. There are other airlines, but not that many In April, Southwest Airlines will FINALLY start service to CLT.

  • @LegendxHD
    @LegendxHD 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think you have autoland and approach mode mixed up. Autoland is in regards to the actual landing. Approach mode is the autopilot intercepting and tracking the ILS inbound. And yes, autoland does touch down the aircraft, however, it wasn't used in this situation.

    I've experienced some very soft landings on the Airbus aircraft. I've heard from a few pilots that Airbus aircraft are easier to fly than Boeing aircraft, hence the soft landings.

  • @mario737ify

    I'm flying on a US Airways Airbus 319 in 2 weeks. It'll be my first A319 flight! Would you recommend the Sony HDR-XR150 as a camcorder? I want to film the landings and takeoffs.

    • @flapsnslats
      @flapsnslats  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's actually quite an old camcorder; I'm pretty sure it's discontinued. Head over to Best Buy and see if any customers have returned camcorders. Best buy usually sells some really nice camcorders for cheap prices if they've been returned.

    • @HDIGamingHDI
      @HDIGamingHDI 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Do you mean autoland? Practically every airliner landing is an ILS approach but the pilots disengage autopilot at about 1000-2000 feet depending on the weather and fly it in manually.

    • @JellyDood96
      @JellyDood96 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is clearly not an autoland, nor disengaging autopilot 1000-2000 ft, you can see the pilot compensating for wind a while back, not so low

    • @codzomz
      @codzomz 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +JackAviation “JandTaviation” TommyAviation okay... Airline pilot here... If it's visual... I can disconnect whenever the hell I want... If it's an ILS, SOP guidelines mandate it be flown by the autopilot until runway confirmed insight and landing is assured... This was visual, he could have disconnected at 5000' for all he cares, just so long as the runways in sight...

      Jacob Rhyne's Channel Even with the pilot's longer flare, he had plenty of runway. I don't think the braking was especially hard, but every flight is a little different.
