That is because jet engines blow hot air. Fog appears when the air temperature equals the dew point (temperature at which water vapor in air condenses). By increasing the air temperature, the values are no longer equal so the water vapor becomes a transparent gas again!
Notice..the airplane is being flown "in english" this is a competent crew. The most difficult thing about CAT III is finding the terminal once you are on the ground.
I can't believe what I just saw. I heard the recorded voice call 1,000 then it's 30, 20 10 and we can see a few lights on the runway. Then the taxi. Incredible!
I was on a DAL 757 from IAD in 1992 that did a CAT IIIB autoland in zero visibility at MXP. I had a wing window seat and couldn't see the end of the wing the fog was so thick. That's typical weather pattern for winter at the base of the Italian Alps.
Seems like the capatain and F/O have a really good relationship in the cockpit, would love to fly with a crew like this one day. Interesting how clear the air is behind the 747. Nice footage.
This is the closest real life impression of conditions at Tenerife in 1977 when the KLM 747 crashed into the Pan Am 747. The Korean Air 747 here even has a similar colour to the KLM 747.
Whoops! The landing was so deceptively easy...imagine the computing ,the split second reading of the ILS parameters, the technology behind it all......and the crew...so relaxed...might have been chatting on park bench for the tension they show. Hats off to the crew and all pilots in general...your job is not easy. And two hoots to all those armchair expert comments.
BRAVISSIMI!! When I saw that the landing was in the first third of the video I thought I was going to stop watching... the fun part had to be over. WRONG! After the autoland the hard work was finding the gate. It was SUPER COOL to watch the 747 clear some of the fog for a minute. GREAT VIDEO!!!
hahaha, at 0:40 I thought it's starting at the top of descend and then 30 seconds later, the plane is on the ground. must have been surprising for the passengers
What an approach! Would you be okay with me featuring this in my series Weekly Dose of Aviation? Of course you will be credited both in the video and in the description. Thanks!
Great vid.Here in SC there are only maybe 5 days out of the year we have fog that bad.Ive never landed in vis 1/2 that bad.I did land in KATL where 1/2 the field was vfr conditions and the other 1/2 was almost zero/zero.I watched 12 or so big boys land and just like in the vid the 300 ft agl fog that was hugging the ground started breaking up.The rising sun took care of it all within 30 minutes.
Pilots monitor progress very closely.. if anything abnormal, they takeover and abort the approach at any time.... but yes, they could if they wanted to close their eyes... but that would be retarded. lol
Landing in these conditions is very dangerous and should not be done unless there is an emergency. In order to land THIS CAT 2 AND CAT3, both the pilot, the plane and the airport must have this infrastructure.
That is probably more a cat3a because they had about 135m visibility at 50ft. The requirements for a cat3a is 125m a decision height of 50ft with 2 lights in sight laterally. Cat3b has no minimums, no requirement to see lights and visibility of 75m. Guilty of being a 757 pilot just qualified lvos 😊
@Dale Wong Check your facts. Roll out guidance has got nothing to do with auto land. It's simply the ability of the aircraft to track the LOC signal until full stop. You are even certified to use roll-out guidance in CAT II approach.
LOL! same! and yes it was a cargo flight... there is only one mobile stair unit to the aft left exit, prob for security (but can also be used by crew on board) and the rest of the ground service vehicles are cargo loaders (google ULD)
There is no decision height for Cat IIIb and horizonotal visibility should be above 50m and it is. In fact they see the runway above 50ft so it'd match Cat IIIa if only horizontal visibility was 200m (which it isn't, so that's why it's IIIb)
Close, but not quite. GPS receivers are just that--receivers. Other GPS receivers SHOULDN'T mess up aircraft NAV systems (though every GPS is built differently), but there's always the POSSIBILITY of cell phones (operating from 698-2690 MHz) to cause harmonic interference with ILS frequencies (LOC 108.1-111.95 MHz, GS 329.15-335.0 MHz). Is it probable? No. Is it possible? Yes. Why chance it with hundreds of lives on board?
your explanation doesn't explain why it has to be off during takeoff though...in the FAR/AIM it says that if you are using GPS navigation for IFR purposes, your cellphone must be powered down...i personally just turn the GPS services off when i fly....When doing a WAAS approach or some other gps nav, its a real risk of your cellphone interfering with the triangulation process
A wonderful counterpoint to the tragedy of Air France's Flight 447 Airbus 330 accident where complete reliance on technology without true "Aircraft Commanding" skills and judgment cost many people their lives.
It's not the FAA rules, the actual FAA rule is that the use of PED's (personal electronic devices) lies with the PIC (pilot in command) or the aircraft's title holder (aka the airline). AC 91.21-1B
@ounpug actually there is a thing in the aircraft...forgot wat it as called...that helps pilots taxi...cant remeber wat its called tho...some pilot i talked to at an airport once told me
shame you couldnt have followed the 747 in. lol, but nice of the 767`s bigger cousin to clear the taxi ways for you, nice vid and thanks................
Wow. The taxi was more stressful to watch than the landing
Justin Simpson and it actually was)) in such a low visibility it's pretty easy to collide into some other craft
@@nightmaretv7353
You almost would feel better if there was a "Follow Me" vehicle driving the same ground speed about 75 feet ahead!
Never has it been more fun to watch an aircraft taxi!
PIlots are funny too.
Holy cow. That is a WICKED ground fog. Really cool and kind of creepy how the 747 disappeared into it.
The mystery is solved. Jet engines get rid of fog

lol the 747 clearing the fog!
Too bad they couldn't just follow KE all the way to the gate!
“Cleared visual approach. Good luck!” 😊
I can't believe what I just saw. I heard the recorded voice call 1,000 then it's 30, 20 10 and we can see a few lights on the runway.
Then the taxi. Incredible!
Very bad that ground operation guys are not using light sticks
I thought my company was bad...
I was on a DAL 757 from IAD in 1992 that did a CAT IIIB autoland in zero visibility at MXP. I had a wing window seat and couldn't see the end of the wing the fog was so thick. That's typical weather pattern for winter at the base of the Italian Alps.
minchia che roba ao
ahahuasuhasuasuhasua
se capisce troppo da come parliamo male inglese che siamo italiani, pure i piloti lo parlano male auauau
I guess that's one way to clear fog...
Seems like the capatain and F/O have a really good relationship in the cockpit, would love to fly with a crew like this one day. Interesting how clear the air is behind the 747. Nice footage.
The pilot in the 747 must be stress af
A wild Boeing 747 appeared! The wild Boeing 747 used Defog!
This is the closest real life impression of conditions at Tenerife in 1977 when the KLM 747 crashed into the Pan Am 747. The Korean Air 747 here even has a similar colour to the KLM 747.
HAH the heavy was clearing the fog!
grande Air Italy!

There didn't appear to be much clearance at 5.20 with the taxing Korean 747. The Korean tail seemed awfully close.
+satos1 it did seem way too close for a 767 to go behind and under a 747 tail....maybe title of 767 is incorrect....
Noticed that too, they didn’t even slowed down.
BRAVISSIMI!! When I saw that the landing was in the first third of the video I thought I was going to stop watching... the fun part had to be over. WRONG! After the autoland the hard work was finding the gate. It was SUPER COOL to watch the 747 clear some of the fog for a minute. GREAT VIDEO!!!
I'm amazed you can find your way on the ground...
I like that the 747 in front of you blows away the fog :-D
hahaha, at 0:40 I thought it's starting at the top of descend and then 30 seconds later, the plane is on the ground. must have been surprising for the passengers
Senti il romano del comandante😂 scherzi a parte grandissimo! Spero anche io tra 4 anni di fare il brevetto in modo da seguire mio padre e zio!
Amazing! Taxi makes the landing look way too easy. Wow.
@3:45 I wonder...KLM B747? really like Tenerife crash site lololol
No way I would have guessed you were at 1,000 at the start of the video had it not been for the GPWS
Solo a Milano ci può essere sto tempo di merda ..
Giusto tutto il Nord Italia... Praticamente un terzo dello Stato.
What an approach! Would you be okay with me featuring this in my series Weekly Dose of Aviation? Of course you will be credited both in the video and in the description. Thanks!
Non c'è da stupirsi che proprio a Milano sia accaduto l'incidente di Linate, c'è più nebbia lì che a Silent Hill.
hahahahahahaha XD
Wow. That's one instance where you have to trust that your plane knows where the hell it's going.
Hello! I wonder if I could use this piece of video for a video I am creating about approaches, I would link to your channel of course, thanks
What a maze in the clouds... downearth!... there is no ILS for autotaxing to the ramp! jejejeje. Nice vid!
How come the Marshaller is not using any lighted wands in poor visibility? That is dangerous.
My exact thoughts!
The taxi part was the greatest thing I've ever seen. I can't even drive in that.
The Canary Island tragedy was a procedural and human error accident and had nothing to do with Auto-Pilot technology.
quite amazing especially after the 747 turned away
Is there a special operation in the cockpit for planes to autoland, or is it simply configuring autopilot properly?
And to think, this technology was first used nearly 50 years ago on the old Hawker-Siddeley Trident...
Wisky wisky hold the ice!
holy cow ... didnt even realize they are going to land....i thought they are over the cloud....really risky
does it not have the beeping like FSX or is that just an FSX Feature?
It has but pilots usually mute it. You just want to hear it in order to check if the radio receives the signal.
Wow, I was thinking you were a few thousand feet up! So, the ground layer hangs there on winter mornings?
i love the color of the korean air aircraft
If only Max Immelmann was alive to see this.
Lol...who knew you could use 747's as fogcleaners, they should just have 3 of those ride around the airfield all the time XD
no not here. In the other airport of Milan. This is LIMC. The airport of the accident is LIML Milan Linate
Magnifico video.
Oh nice cloud surfing at 6000ft, (enters clouds) "50, 40, 30...." Whaaaaat?! Awesome video!
I wonder if they had to file IFR to taxi to the gate... LOL
More like EFR ( Eye )
Adak Whidbey did you mean IFR?
BluMac -- Yep! Thanks, I'll correct typo...
I'd be frightened to drive my car in these conditions, let alone land and taxi a huge airliner.
damn that runway came out of nowhere!
747 should run the outer engines at idle reverse to clear in front of him :P
jesus a 747 can sure clear it out
I wonder what's the attidude at this height -computer- 50, 40, 30. Oh crap!
Go buy a clue about Category III B limits. They were well within.
This video never gets old
WE TRUST OUR VERY LIVES TO COMPUTERS. WOW 180 MILES PER HOUR WITH 20 FEET OF VIS.
Nicely done. Looks like the taxi was more difficult than the landing.
Right at the beginning you hear the "1000" call. But the view outside has really the potential to fool us. :)
No game! many real live's at stake & $$$$.....all hail Barns Wallace!!!
If this was London every airport would be closed..
waiting for the black pearl to appear on Whisky 7
06:25 had me confused if there was a lady crew member in the cockpit!!
apparently the 747 jet blast (clearing the fog) has everyone in amusing awe
i don't even know it was gonna land that fast. Thanks to the B747!!
That's an amazing approach! The minimums, apparently are "If the gate isn't in sight from 20 feet away, go missed!"
I guess being number two on approach behind a heavy has it's very rare benefits :D
This is why i want to become a pilot
DAMN!! I am a former pilot. I understand and trust the technology fully. But IFR landings still scare the shit out of me!
Very clever landing in that weather. It just shows you how much simulated training these pilots have to go through
Robbow93, airline Air Italy, a/c 757 or 767
Allover amaizing, real CAT III
Great vid.Here in SC there are only maybe 5 days out of the year we have fog that bad.Ive never landed in vis 1/2 that bad.I did land in KATL where 1/2 the field was vfr conditions and the other 1/2 was almost zero/zero.I watched 12 or so big boys land and just like in the vid the 300 ft agl fog that was hugging the ground started breaking up.The rising sun took care of it all within 30 minutes.
Eyyyyy bell amore! I can't-a see-a shit-a!
That's called d e n s e fog
Mike Hillias T H I C C fog
P H A T T fog
0:01 " one thousand "
My eyes can't believe it ^^
I didn't know Pepsi had an airline.
Lol, thats the Logo of Korean Air, not Pepsi! :)
Wow that's some really heavy fog!
Pilots monitor progress very closely.. if anything abnormal, they takeover and abort the approach at any time.... but yes, they could if they wanted to close their eyes... but that would be retarded. lol
Good job! Love the accurate way to navigate around the apron :)
Landing in these conditions is very dangerous and should not be done unless there is an emergency. In order to land THIS CAT 2 AND CAT3, both the pilot, the plane and the airport must have this infrastructure.
Dang! Now that's some badass low visibility

It' s a CATIII C
LOL! same!
and yes it was a cargo flight... there is only one mobile stair unit to the aft left exit, prob for security (but can also be used by crew on board) and the rest of the ground service vehicles are cargo loaders (google ULD)

They should have a couple 747's blowing warm on on touchdown zone for landing aircraft. Haha jk.

i may be wrong but i didn't hear any the Reverse thrust? im guessing they approached at lower speed anyway that RT is not needed? very cool video
Very scary landing, i cant see anything, its amazing to safe landing, just wow for me.....salut mr pilot and copilot

Does anyone know by any chance what’s the aircraft reg of the 74?

Don’t tell the non pilots. But ground navigation can more more stressful then flying 😂
shame you couldnt have followed the 747 in. lol, but nice of the 767`s bigger cousin to clear the taxi ways for you, nice vid and thanks................
Nice video
Let's call this a CAT IV approach and CAT V taxi
