When you watch this and see all that could go wrong you realize it is completely amazing there aren’t more aviation accidents than there are.
A Wizzair flight was rerouted to an airport some 250 km away from the original destination. Apparently they did not have enough fuel to wait for thirty minutes.
Oh; airplanes have been designed for over a hundred years or more now based on reviewing lessons learned and continuous improvement. The FAA enforces this.
@@tangoxraysierra Airplanes are NOT designed to fly into Thunderstorms. Thats why professional pilots, fly around them. And don’t attempt to land with one on the airport.
If I had to say one thing about this as a student pilot it would be that your skill at handling the aircraft in this situation is amazing. Your decision making on the other hand is not.
@Buckwheat Hikes he had visual. He was in the right to try. Seems you need some real cockpit time.
@Buckwheat Hikeslmao dude get some help
Are you a professional pilot ? army ? civilian ?
The only thing that would have me worried is having to make a go-around
@@realdeathpony dude I’m an ex-naval aviator and fly 747’s now. That was pure stupidity. Think you might want to learn a thing or two about flying before you open your mouth.
I had the same experience landing at Heathrow in a 757 in the early 90's. As soon as we had all three on the ground, it blanked out to zero visibility with massive flashes of lightening. We couldn't see the exit and had to proceed very slowly to the very end of the runway before exiting. The tower was not happy, but still put all traffic on hold for 20mins!
When you see this in front of you a few things should come into your mind immediately. The first one is possible wind shear, going from headwind into a vertical shear (pushing you down) and then a tailwind. Second is that you will probably have a flooded runway, so possible skidding and little breaking action. Thirdly, there is no option for a go around unless you want to fly straight into a thunder storm which is never a good idea. In other words, this is the time that you simply take the correct option and that is to wait until this thunderstorm passes by. Thunderstorms are fast moving storms, so in about 5 tot 10 min it will have passed and you can make you approach. No need to play hero and hope all will go well. I still remember the Delta flight 191 at Dallas in 1985, which also tried to land in a thunderstorm, killed 137 people.
Delaying the landing was the call I would have made, and did make in watching the video. Yes, you can make it down but the risk of flying into wind shear simply isn’t worth a 10-minute delay.

Really enjoyed your analysis. Thank for your comments
Spot on! Some people think the job is easy. Days like this you earn you wage.
This is sooo familiar. Several years ago in a private plane, I faced that same looking bank of angry clouds inbound to Minneapolis. Asked ATC how it looked and I’ll never forget the reply, “looks good here, I’m in a concrete brick building on the ground the question is, how does it look to you seven miles out at 5000 feet.” Pause....I chickened out and asked for radar vectors to the alternate. All’s well that ends well.
Don't mess with thunderstorms. They usually blow over quickly. Land at an alternate and wait. Or, stay clear until it's safe. Live to tell about it.
not many alternates in cuba hehe
Lightning and thunder no probs. Now Microbursts and down drafts. Yes I agree alternative airport however. Some company policies are land or turn back there's no go around so maybe that's why the pilot landed. Silly policy in my opinion.
No alternate there though

I recommend Bosch wipers.

No kidding, I was gonna recommend some wiper blades myself 😂
Rainex.;))
anyone else notice just how effective those wipers are at the end? ;)
+Josh Sedgwick pretty sure they forgot to attached the rubber blades
+Josh Sedgwick I had to drive my car in similar conditions on highway. It's scary as shit if your wipers don't do anything anymore because of the heavy rain and you can't see any further than 10 meters ahead… really horrible driving conditions :D.
+geetarwanabe LOL
+Josh Sedgwick They don't even touch the windshield :D
+Josh Sedgwick They sould use the nanowipers :)
The did their homework alright. Applied RAIN-X to the windscreens before flight. Visibility excellent
If you take that plane to Auto Zone, they’ll install your wipers for free.
😂👍
Why don't they install cockpit cameras on all planes. Aside from the black boxes this would be of great benefit in the event of a crash.
@@mattsprojects2047 how are they heavy and expensive ? They just need to store 10 minutes of footage prior to crash
Totally man, you don't even need rocket science, just stick a dashcam on it.
@Guillermo Cortés on a lighter note, We just need cameras to have a recording, let the black box do all the rest of stuff as it does...
Black boxes are in the back of planes and they are encased in aluminium, then an inch-thick layer of insulation that can withstand high temperatures, and finally, an outer casing of titanium or stainless steel. But if you were to install a camera it would be in the front and it would have no protection so if there was a crash it would be damaged or destroyed.
The technology exists as well as the means to protect the data in a crash. The insurmountable issue is the Airlines Pilots Association, one of the most powerful unions in the world, is dead set against them. They have fought, successfully, every attempt to make them required on all commercial aircraft.
Anyone else catch the lightning strike at 2:57?
yes

I encountered similar conditions on my last flight, 35 years ago. I landed in Amarillo TX. The ground crew took the airplane to the nearest hangar, without fueling it, and without asking. We were stuck until the next day. My last flight was also the most exciting. This was all VFR. The airfield went IMC right after we landed.
You know what’s awesome about typical convective weather? Unless it’s associated with a front... it will probably pass in 15 minutes. I’ve flown Cessnas in conditions like this... simply waiting for the storm to pass the airport before landing in VFR conditions and calm winds.
On Friday, 02August1985 a Lockheed L-1011 Tristar crashed at Dallas/Ft. Worth International Airport killing 134 passengers and crew. One person on the ground was also killed. The National Transportation Safety Board's post accident findings are as follows:
"PROBABLE CAUSE: "The flight crew's decision to initiate and continue the approach into a cumulonimbus cloud which they observed to contain visible lightning; the lack of specific guidelines, procedures and training for avoiding and escaping from low-level windshear; and the lack of definitive, real-time windshear hazard information. This resulted in the aircraft's encounter at low altitude with a microburst-induced, severe windshear from a rapidly developing thunderstorm located on the final approach course."
Of course, you are entitled to your own opinion as to the wisdom of this particular flight crews actions shown in this video.
Yeah, I thought the same thing, unless he was fuel critical, I wouldn't have continued the approach into a thunderstorm with lightning, wind, heavy rain and extremely low visibility. You're just asking for it.
Good thing that all modern aircraft and airports are equipped with predictive windshear systems and weather radars...thanks largely due to the aforementioned crash.
If that were the case, this is a definite example of poor flight planning. Part 121 / 91fly to your destination and have enough to divert under normal power settings and land with 45 mins reserve under IFR. Its all about being legal.
To top that, the guy is busy recording! :l
USNVA11 That's negative... Microburst on final
Good job on the landing. I have had a few landings like that with a wall of water half way down the runway. Exciting but I would of rather not have had the experience.
+steveo1kinevo . Why not take the safer option. Abort the approach rather than flying yourself into a corner which is very difficult to get out of? From the radar screen it looks like they have plenty of options to turn away, join a holding and come back in when the thunder storm has passed.
+jeff jj "based on experience" is one of the common mistakes we learn to avoid during every human factors course during ATPL training. Based on experience, he should have taken into account the possibility of having to go around. Cleaning up an airplane, in the middle of a downdraft is not safe.
***** 2 words. Missed Approach
Dog runs into the runway... unwanted runway incursion... lights go out... ATC instructs a go around... what do you do? You press TOGA and fly right into the downdraft of that mature stage CB with a 40 knot head to tail windshear.
Not a good idea. I just spoke to a 757 captain about this video and he told me landing there was a stupid decision. It's these decisions that we train to NOT make. Don't take risks. This captain likely reviewed what he did later on a beer at the bar, realizing how stupid it was.
*****
I don't need to know why he chose to land. That's why there are destination alternates and that's why he has a final reserve and contingency fuel. Please don't become a pilot.
*****
You're probably a GA pilot and mechanic. Doubt you're MCC trained. If you were, you'd understand. As an airline pilot, you'd be trained to think further than 2nm ahead of your nose. I'm not lecturing. The fact that this approach was irresponsible, does not affect you and your SEP.
Red on radar, Thunderstorm warning, Lighting, Storm Clouds, Winds ..... hummm!
And bad wipers
Thats cubans pilots bro......
Can't see myself flying into that...
@@EdExTechur I can't either, but im also not a pilot!
This must be a “ Cubanna Air “ flight ?
Fantastic video
Nice video!
Can we appreciate how accurately Top Gun on NES replicated these sounds with the limits of 8 bit programming?
Incredible...wow, that was risky.
Wow. It seemed like they were almost racing with the storm to see who could get to the runway first, but I guess it only looked that way. To a layperson and infrequent airline passenger, it looks like an impressive landing in less than ideal conditions.
It was a landing in less than ideal conditions. Unless he had an emergency or was way low on fuel he should have waited for the storm to pass. Google the Delta Crash at Dallas back in the 80s. They had very similar conditions and no one lived.
Great video. Very heavy rain and a wet runway can be a problem. Crew did a professional piece of work.
That's how you end up with your very own episode of air crash investigation. ......
They were taking an unnecessary risk. Thunderstorm (windshear, downdraft, microbursts, lighting), heavy rain (flooded runway, poor braking), no possibility of a go-around, and lost sight of the airport after reporting it in sight. It's not worth saving a few minutes instead of waiting for an isolated thunderstorm to move away.
if you go around you will have 0 chance to land, you will have no visibility. And will have to land at different airport, and nobody wants that to happen
Not to mention filming while flying.
0:50 "I have runway insight!"
1:20 "I don't have it now"
Yet no "missed approach" recognition. Would have failed their checkride immediately
I hate planes

Fuck off then
I would recommend loading a lot of holding fuel and not pushing your luck. Thunder storms KILL. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_Air_Lines_Flight_191
Seguramente no habían vientos significativos que es lo peligroso en esos casos, la lluvia solo resta un poco de visibilidad. Si estuviéramos ante vientos de gran intensidad o peligrosos para el aterrizaje la torre le hubiese sugerido aterrizar en Varadero o el propio piloto lo hubiera pedido. Para mí, un aterrizage sin grandes complicaciones.
Have the runway in sight? Some of it...
Me encanta ver el verdor y la lluvia combinada con un viaje ,en este caso, el vuelo de una aeronave debe ser muy relajante saber que estás en buenas manos a pesar de las condiciones del clima. Saludos desde Monterrey México
Good luck, reinforces BAD DECISIONS!!
Agreed....
Rainx works great. I always have it applied on my windshield.
On a flight into Berlin at about the same distance and altitude from threshold as the lightning flashes here, my aircraft was flipped inverted by a microburst. On that occasion the TS was still 10 miles from the runway!
Hearing your 47 passengers screaming is something that is etched into my soul even more than the horror of being inverted at 1500’ Please divert if you find yourself in this situation. Don’t continue approaches into or even near TS
Damn!
Excellent 💯👍👏
Good Landing.

1:17 lightning flash took out the landing lights, emergency restore at 1:43. Anyone agree?

Si.
Probably
No, just the approach angle and the heavy rain blocking the view
All of the lights suddenly went out and they suddenly came back on some time later. Lightning causing that seems highly likely. The glide slope trough that was basically unchanged.
Wow, imagine if he had to go around!
Exactly
That would have sucked.

“Many other aircraft landed with the same weather conditions before and after this landing.”
I don't care what other planes were doing. If other planes were flying into terrain, would you follow them?
Divert, or wait.
Hey! Let's see if we can find a microburst! Yes, most of the time you'll get away with landing in a thunder storm, but sometimes you won't, and then you'll be called an incompetent idiot.

@@mariomueller8365 still trying to deflect from that one botched landing, right?
Exactly. So many people seem to be ignoring that fact in this video. For anyone who knows aviation and weather, this was an idiotic landing unless they had no other choice but to force it (ex: no viable alternate, minimal fuel, emergency, etc... likely not the case here).
Jesus
So many youtube Pilots and captains , and most of them the most heavy plane flown its was a twin cessna during a sunny day.
Then we read so many "stupid" coments as they never did something worst on they life.
🙈
Kudos to the pilots for landing in that weather but couldn’t they have waited for the weather clear up a bit?
It's a plane not a bus
Yes, they could stop for a while in the air and wait for the sunny weather
luis V. - actually, they are required to carry enough fuel to hold away from the airport and then go to an alternate if the weather is still bad. Lightning on the field as they land and all around during approach. Extremely sketchy decision making.
@@Searey07 yeih, "go around".
@@WARLOCGaming I thought it was a train we were all watching:) The question meant if they couldn't go to a holding pattern and land after slightly better weather?
Excelente aproximación Cap y no le cuento el Aterrizaje muy bueno Bravo
--- ¡ Good job pilots ! ---
👍
One of the first things I teach my student pilots is to never fly into a thunderstorm, not to mention being within 20 NM of one. I'll use this video as a teaching tool....... never try landing into an airport with lightning strikes and rain. Microburst anyone?
That went 0-100 real quick. Don't mind all the comment. Easy to judge when you are NOT the Pilot in command (PIC). Great landing! Glad you are all safe!
Easy to judge, yeah. Do NOT land with a Thunderstorm right on the airport. Basic knowledge. But, happy for the passengers, that they got lucky
Change the wipers, please, that is terrible!
Ask Fidel....
That's not a Cuban aircraft
The wipers are the least of his worries landing in those conditions.
make better ;)

Great Captain👍 from Pakistan
Those 4 red lights on the PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator) mean you are too low. 2 red & 2 white, on glide slope, 4 white too high. 4 red lights the P stands for Pucker.
I don't think I would choose to land in a thunderstorm like that. Too many hazards. Strong down drafts, microburst, possible lightning strike, and hail. Not a good choice overall.
I think you are professional pilot ,sir ??
I learned the hard way, that sometimes you do not have a choice. I was on a VFR flight, had rain all around me, and lightning was common. Fortunately, there was little turbulence. But, the weather really became nasty after we touched down.
The landing I made in Amarillo was on the same weekend that a L1011 crashed due to wind shear.
No one is asking for your choice.
I am a professional pilot & a Check Airman. To continue the approach with the conditions at the field was foolish reckless, and dangerous in the extreme.
Not at all, atleast for a Fokker. This is in no way a dangerous weather. We have landed in much severe weather.
@@MarineMaverick in that case you are a wreckless and poorly trained pilot. Perhaps you should reading up on air crash investigation reports and follow a few refresher courses. Flying a plane is not a matter of 'look in what kind of weather I dare to land'.
Dr S pray tell why not for a Fokker; does it have magic properties or is exempted for the laws of Physics?
A plane is a plane is a plane.
That was a great landing. Good work !
BELLOS BELLOS DIOS LOS BENDIGA A ESOS PILOTOS CON DOS PELOTAS UN ATERRIZAJE DE PELÍCULA..
This is just normal landing with some rain. The approach seemed always stabilized. I don't see why some people are criticizing the pilot for his choice. I was a PAX in a BA 747 landing at Heathrow with much more winds, rain, turbulence and less visibility than this one. Stuff were moving on the overhead lockers and still it was a smooth landing.
Did i see 4 RED?
What exactly do the 4 red lights mean?
Zach Wonone all white you ALRIGHT all red you DEAD!! REMEMBER
They look pretty much alive to me.
Ajinkya Pathania yes that is correct. The indicator lights are determining white to high red to low. 2 white 2 red is perfect pitch on the glide slope.
Ajinkya Pathania You good question me as well. If you find out let me know please
Id have liked a go around for 10 min, proly by then the small storm would have moved away. You don't know about ground turbulence or down draft until its too late.
You never know, when thunderstorms are in the area. Had my landing in Amarillo been unsuccessful, I would have been in serious trouble!
When that lightning bolt struck, my aircraft would have 180'd without me even having to think about it.
Nothing to do with the lightning - the vertical currents in storm clouds can very easily overwhelm the power of the aircraft. So stay away.
When some people have a chans to hurt others, they go for it. That why it is so easy to find people to work as guards at concentration camps...
when pilots would always divert for that kind of showers, 50% of the flights in Vietnam would be cancelled in the storm season.
Yup!
when i saw that wall of storm with the end of a runway poking out I would said nope nope nope... not happening.
Wonderful work...made it look easy.
WOW ! CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER WHAT A HALF STOP LANDING WOULD LOOK LIKE.
This is the time, when the pilots after landing look at their shaking hand and think: why did I do this approach instead of waiting 15 minutes!!! - I would do this approach only as last option if running out of fuel. It is nice to watch once everything goes right, but if what so ever goes wrong, and as Dave mentioned, a lot can go wrong, there is no way to explain yourself.
Maybe because it may get much worse? Not so much turbulence and/or rain up to the runway threshold, it's not so bad IMHO
guess his feelings when hes out of fuel and has got only one chance.
and the weather still hasn't changed.
at some point you have to make decisions and you have to trust your abilities/training.
If they were landing into the wind, that storm was right on the edge over the airport.
Had he gone around or waited the conditions may have deteriorated further.
@@joshbridges8410 I have to agree with you, you can schedule perfect but it doesn't always show up on time!
@Jack Dacros if they are proud let them be. my life is more important to me as a ontime landing.
Imagine having to perform a go around
Unless in a fuel emergency (then a planning mistake was done before) I would not recommend to land into such a heavy thunderstorm as there is always a great risk of heavy downbursts exceeding the vertical climb capability of a jetliner by 5 to 10 fold !!! So that it would merely smash the plane into the ground like a fly or a peace of trash if you like. That is also why there are old pilots and bold pilots but no old bold pilots...
Charles my dad was a bold pilot. Now he's dead. One mistake too many.
Sorry to hear that.
isnt the airport responsibility to close all traffic, due to such wind danger as you describe? judging for the video, the pilots seem to have all the final descent well under control, besides the low visibility and rain
Wow... Push to test on whether there was any windshear... Then the missed approach corridor is a thunderstorm.
More lucky than skilled
Fokker is the best plane!!!👍🏻
Pilot forgot to switch ON windahield wiper during approached.
No need for windshield wiper on approach, they are for ground use only. The fast airspeeds already gets rid of water droplets
Wonder why the wipers were not switched on at short finals
The windshield wipers on most airliners aren't that great. I rarely use them until after landing. Unless the rainfall is very heavy. In flight the speed of the aircraft will cause the airflow to remove most of the rain water and visibility isn't a problem.
Congratulations for the pilote
You are best pilot
Thank god you didn't go missed!
I appreciate the flying skills but in the end it was an unnecessary risk ! I can onley assume that the pilots were feeling pressure from the airline to land in theses ridiculous conditions on time for finacial reasons . If this is the case I would certainly hesitate to fly with them.
Kinda wishing they had a go around so I could see what was in that cloud up ahead.
You would have found it full of rain.
There is a good chance we would have found out by reading the accident report afterwards.
Rain mate being a cloud and all. You expecting to find Monkey?
@@urbanmidnight1 Conditions of the cloud. Is it hail? Updrafts of 2k ft/min?
One day I hope you'll be able to read a comment and understand more than just the obvious...
Now there’s a pilot who’s never crashed. Yet.
Genial aterrizaje
At age 17, with 3 pax, I landed ZS-FOY (PA-28R) at FAGC at NIGHT in a storm like this, 45 degree cross-wind gusting 50 knots, after stormy flight from FAPH.
you're such a macho man lol
Ian D. Samson . Pa28 in a 50kt gust. Good luck with that sir. Approach is 65/75.. gust component would be 25+ even if you came in full power and no flaps, you would not have enough to counteract the gusts... But, if you say you did it... alrighty then👍 you're one hell of a pilot for sure
Ian D. Samson it's impossible to land that kind of plane or any plane in those conditions, you would be blown off. Moreover no one would clear you to land cuz IFR conditions .
Congratulations, you are an idiot.
Ian D. Samson i was 17 months old when i landed an f16 in pacific ocean, not even a scratch
Meanwhile back in the cabin:
"Look, such nice weather! I told it'd be a wonderful vacation!"
"But they said heavy rain."
"Pah, come on! When have they ever been right?"
(ten secons from touchdown)
"OK, A little bit of rain perh... dammit WTF?!"
At 1:18 all I could think of was Drlta 191 and the infamous..."There's lightning coming outta that one."
When I dispatch my flights I would hope the captains use the alt or the hold fuel I gave them on the release....
I was leaving DFW that day on the south end of the airport in full sun and no wind, 191 went down on the north end just as I exited the airport. I could not believe it when the radio said that there was a crash. crazy weather
@@jamesbruce I was at home, when I received a phone call. A family member of a good friend said that, they had been involved in a major auto accident. Later was sitting in the ICU Waiting Room at the Hospital, watching the televised coverage of the aftermath of Delta 191. Serendipitous?
That was smart..just fly right into a level 5 storm
I kept waiting for the tower to say, “Nice landing Fokker.”
Tower couldn't see the landing
guess that crew never heard of a microburst.foolish decision
John Colucci it’s not a microburst, it’s called rain. If it was a microburst they would not have been alive to upload this video
He had no choice than to commit to a full stop landing, no way could he of gone through that red weather showing on his radar. He basically ran himself out of options other than to land and in essence boxed himself in with nowhere to go....
Felicitaciones al capitán excelente aproach
Успели!!!! Щётки надо поменять;)
They make us watch safety videos every year in recurrent like this titled “What not to do”.
"Uh, tower, that's gonna be a hard no."
Hey! Great name.
Everyone please look exactly at position 0:11 in this video. Early on, it shows the ND screen (navigation display) displaying 70% of the runway in heavy rain (red color)!!! The pilots had plenty of time to avoid this thunderstorm and wait it out, WITHOUT having to fly near it or through it. The pilots missed this opportunity and instead opted to continue their very dangerous approach into red-painted t-storm activity, which was clearly shown on their navigation screens. Both of these pilot should have been fired for this. They put the lives of everyone on board at extreme risk. They were given the tools to help them fly safely around t-storm activity and they chose to ignore those tools and fly directly into the heart of a t-storm!!
They should have done it but they were running out of fuel. You think that they fill up the tanks to full, But they only fill up the tank so you can just about to reach the Airport. (And its Cheaper!) They weren't putting everyone in danger. If they kept on waiting until the storm goes away, THAT will make the Passengers and the Pilots in danger. Plus Pilots are very professional and can hadle this type of stuff. Just trust the pilots. They go back to training every year to check if they can still fly the aircraft in different type of weather and scenarios.
The WX reports should have called for this stuff and they should have had alternate fuel. If not and yes that happens then they should have considered another airport or waited even 15 minutes to try the approach. If things were the way you say then this country is flying in an amateur and Mickey Mouse fashion which is the way many if not all South American countries are willing to accept.
Playing Devils Advocate here. If you notice on the ND the WX looks bad for sure, but it’s moving away from the airport. Notice the winds on the ND. Only issue I see them having is if a go around was necessary. Then they would have been in the thick of it. Airlines in the US make these landings daily, with 300 pax on board, and never the worse off. By the time they landed all the heavy rain, hail, and crazy downburst would have passed as they were approaching the cell from behind. With that being said, I would have done a couple of turns in the hold to give this WX a few miles distance.
Huh? The fuel put on the plane is for the plane's destination (cargo etc factored in) plus 45 minute reserve.
Sometimes, you just can't avoid the mother nature. There was an Indonesian flight, which pilots noticed red colour on ND screen. Then they contacted the air controller requested to change course, their request was accepted. So they changed course, little they know is that, they are heading to an even bigger zone of red colour on screen. As a result, they flew straight into a thunderstorm, the thunderstorm shut down the entire the aircraft and the aircraft fell out of the sky
USAF in the Azores which means we rode with the crew back in who proclaimed "Id rather crash then fly around". 90 mph winds using the yaw circle coming in sideways. Didn't know a heavy could do that.Ever notice how small a large plane looks in bad weather.
How can you crash and then fly?
