wow... just a question to anyone in the chat: am I not supposed to turn on both autopilots for an R-NAV approach? I'm a simulator pilot and just had a question. And fun fact: did you know that the sticker which says A321 is installed to remind pilots while taxiing that the aircraft is much longer than their usual shorter shorter A319-A320..
Certificated Airman like Flight Dispatchers are required to observe flight deck operations for a minimum of 5 hours/year. Also, the privilege to jumpseat for leisure or commuting is afforded to dispatchers a s a professional courtesy. A privilege that can be revoked, so Dispatchers must be professional at all times as they are under the authority of the pilot in command.
Airline Aircraft / Flight Dispatchers have jumpseat privileges for work and leisure. Always though, with the approval of the pilot in command. Sometimes, they’ll ask you to take a seat in the back if there’s an empty seat.
Switching on the apu immediately after landing is a typically standard practice at most (if not all) cargo, corporate, and airline sectors... mainly for if we would like to perform a single engine taxi-among many other things... My personal preference is to start the bleed immediately after landing-which requires an apu start-and calibrate the cabin temperature to an appropriate setting that coincides with the OAT before arriving at the gate and cutting the engines.
@@fsxnico From the looks of it, they were almost at their max landing weight. They were probably running the APU to burn more fuel to reduce their weight.
At 5:09 I see disagreement between the altimeter and the radar altitude. Is that normal? elevation for KMCO is 100feet. The discrepancy is 100 feet, does it have to do with it? the altimeter reads 2360, and radar altitude 2460. So unless KMCO is bellow sea level, I don't understand. Probably something normal on the A32X?
The altitude value showed on the right hand side of the pfd is based on the local barometric pressure as you know and KMCO may not be below sea level but the area they are flying above at that exact time you mentioned should be below sea level otherwise it would be confusing. 🤔 Great catch BTW. :) But i don’t think it has to do with the aircraft type.
@@eneser184 Thanks so much for your reply. I actually live around that area and we arent bellow sea level, so thats interesting unless is taking into account the nearby lake’s depth. Thanks!
Radio altitude, is actual height below the sensor in the belly, barometric altitude is above height above MSL or sea level, or in other words not ground level.
'Ten' followed by 'Five' means a butter-smooth landing. Simply WOW.
Shaan E Millat i literally hear that a lot while in the cockpit
I’m not sure that’s accurate. I think what it means is a landing that isn’t a hard one. But hey, any landing you can walk away from is a good landing
not accurate xD you can still hear 5 even if its not a greaser.
The 'retard' call overrides the altitude call. So any altitude below 20 is only announced if the thrust levers have been 'retarded' to idle.
At least you're confident in your ignorance
Awesome! Had the privilege myself to be on jump of an A321 as well🙌🏻 Your video is a million times better though😅
Good ol Frontier airlines

and boy that APU started quick!
Not a sticker for taxi, 321 is longer, sticker is for pitch warning only , I retired 35 yrs American Airlines, thousands of hrs in airbus
@@davidcass4958 ooh... I stand corrected.... I have BEEN LIED TO...... :)
Dual autopilots will only engage on an ILS approach. RNAV is always single autopilot only.
ILS requires dual AP for redundancy. Not the same for RNAVs .
Got the APU up and running on final. Frontiers salute to Americas favorite three holer the727! 😂 😆
Beautiful video full landing until parking. I love Frontier Liverie's
Very LONG flare…..
How did you get access to sit in the jump seat for a landing like this? I’m interested in doing that
Gotta have CASS privileges which is only given to pilots, ATC, and dispatchers.
become a pilot my friend

Could u actually do that ask. The flight attendants to go to the jump seat
i believe hes actually a pilot whos in the jumpseat filimg the landing.
@@cptjarret8957 ohhhh ok

Is this Frontier?
Yes, Tail number ends in FR, also when they called tower I heard “Frontier Flight”.
It looks like a video game, I wish flight simulators looked this good 😀
Check out MSFS2020

Its an option to have it call out

Why is the APU turned on?

@@nikos9711 oHHHHHH thank you very much for the explanation, I usually turn on the APU when I release track
@@El_Capi_David you are very welcome. Happy landings ✈️
@@nikos9711 Thanks, but that still doesn't explain why the APU was on during flight as well. You can see "APU AVAIL" from the beginning of the video.

Radar Altimeter is not always accurate and sometimes detects highest object it is flying above.
Radio altitude, is actual height below the sensor in the belly, barometric altitude is above height above MSL or sea level, or in other words not ground level.
@@Trevor-pi5tp That still doesn't explain the discrepancy
What was the touch down spd
no dogs allowed in the cockpit? 😂
ah yes, the ptu
DorianTM now it all makes sense
Perfect landing
Never seen KISM from that altitude before...
If you're talking about the shot at 0:23, I'm pretty sure that's KORL, not KISM
Just landed at kism yesterday
Actually, if this is from the south side, it's KISM
KLEE. Leesburg. We were approaching from the northwest.
These ugly green A321 Stickers make me f*in agressive.
Vote Trump for lower Gas prices, lower food prices. Lower aviation fuel costs. And Peace in this world.
How is he gonna do that?
171200lbs is max landing weight for the A321 iirc-I’ll wager they came in just at MLW once the engines spooled and the flaps and gear were all out.
We did extend our downwind just to make sure we wouldn't be overweight.
@@Otreborthe1 more videos like this would be AWESOME to see!
