As a retired person, I am not always sure of what day of the week it is. But I know when it is Saturday when your lovely video appears on my TH-cam. I love this part of the world and the views were wonderful. Thank you very much. 😊
Beautiful approach and a smooth landing! I always like seeing islands in full from the sky like Mallorca and Ibiza. Its like Google Earth in real life hah.
Thank you so much Captain for your Ibiza approach! I asked you about it some months ago and I am so happy to see it on your channel - brings back some lovely memories. Thank you again!!
Hello Cpt. A beautifully flown visual of the 06. 🤩 Great experience, unfortunately there was extreme blinding from the sun and wind from the side. I'm amazed at how beautifully the visual flew in these conditions! 👍 What I really liked were the constant overlays of the FMC. Thanks! The view from the front of the cockpit across the entire Decent was impressive. Thank you for showing the bays of Formentor and Alcudia. Super great video! I'm looking forward to the next one! With this in mind, I wish you and your crew a nice week. Greetings from Styria 🤗 Werner
Hello Werner, thanks for watching and your detailed feedback! I agree, it was a very beautiful day with perfect weather. Have a nice day! Best greetings to Styria!
Thanks for these videos! I started watching as I have severe flight anxiety and I wanted to get a better understanding of what goes on in the cockpit whilst flying. 2 days ago I got back from Morocco, if not for your videos I would have really struggled. But had a lovely holiday and both flights were smooth! Now I am facing my fear head on, and have another flight to Ibiza in September 😊
Lovely visuals as usual sir..Absolutely enjoy watching these regularly, helps to understand SOP's and add to the knowledge base for the future !! Thanks a ton, cheers🙌🏻😁
Einfach nur großes Kino Euch zuzuschauen, vor einem Jahr hatte ich noch enorme Flugangst, jetzt bin ich Flugsüchtig und Euer Video hat dazu beigetragen, danke für das tolle Video!
Vielen Dank für Dein gutes Feedback! Es freut mich sehr, dass Du Deine Flugangst mit der Hilfe des Videos reduzieren konntest! Einen schönen Tag noch und viele angenehme Flüge!
11:48 Thanks for taking the time to show us the flight director screens.. I can tell you did that in post, which I know is very time consuming! It's great seeing those pages and now I see how you know what your call sign is!
Sehr gutes Video macht echt Spaß die anzusehen ich lerne jedesmal etwas Neues und es gefällt mir generell einfach sehr euch beim fliegen zuzusehen. Weiter so 👍
This is the best real flight you tube channel the captain such a great guy. His Co pilots/first officers all seem to gel really well.. I very much enjoy this content thank you.
Thank you so much for the kind words about the channel and my person!!! Please tell all your friends in aviation about the channel! Thanks in advance for your help! Have a nice day!
Another super interesting video. I see you prefer visual approach and manual landing, I think you enjoy them a lot! Super professional crew as usual, I enjoyed the full lenght video. Greetings from VRN
Thank you very much for watching and your great feedback! Yes, you are right, I like visual approaches very much. They save fuel and flight time and they are fun to fly!
Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen und das gute Feedback! Bitte allen luftfahrtinteressierten Menschen, die Du kennst, vom Kanal erzählen! Vielen Dank vorab dafür und noch einen schönen Tag!
Great video. Interesting that on the approach the radar altimeter was showing higher than the barometric! Would have expected them to be the same over the water!
Good morning Captain I hope that you are well. I was wondering if these videos are your idea, I know that you must have received the blessings of Euro wings to make and publish them and I hope they appreciate your efforts as you are a great representative for the airline. Happy landings Sir.
Hello! I have a question: Why did you switch the FDs to off at 23:55 ? (I'm doing my atpl(a) right now and you're channel is a blessing for a person like me 😉😊) Thank you!
Thanks for watching, the good feedback and your question! We switched the flight directors off as we started the visual approach. The flight directors have to be off if we do not follow the guidance. Here we continued visually, looked outside and monitored the raw data instrument indications instead.
Thanks for watching, the good feedback and for your suggestion! I already thought about doing this and some more insights. As always: It may take a while. Please stay tuned!
Hello Captain 👨✈️! Thank you very much for this great video. The quality really improves with every video! I really appreciate your effort! I'm always happy when the captain talks to the passengers. Not all pilots do that (unfortunately). My favourite island is Mallorca, but Ibiza is also great! I really enjoyed the flight over the island of Mallorca and the airport of Palma de Mallorca! It's always amazing how small such a big airport can look from above. The approach to Ibiza airport was also beautiful to watch. The sun reflecting over the sea during the short-final must have been very disturbing. Luckily you had sunglasses on 🕶️. The co-pilot wasn't wearing any. I hope the bird shown is ok. That was a very close call. I always find it a bit strange when pilots and controllers radio to each other in their native language and not in English. I have another small question: How many ft/min do you climb/sink at most of the time? Do you ever climb or descend at ± 3500 ft/min during normal flight operations? I am curious and hope for an answer! I also hope to see a video from Palma de Mallorca soon! best regards
Thank you so much for watching and for your extensive feedback! We did not hit the bird. I assume that it is still ok and enjoying Ibiza. Climbrates of more than 3500 feet are possible. We may see that during the takeoff with a not very heavy airplane. Descents with more than 3500 feet happen on a regular basis, usually if we are at higher altitudes and above the ideal descent profile. We do not want to descent with more than 6000 feet per minute as long as we are above 10.000 feet. Below 10.000 feet we use much lower rates as we get closer to the ground. There are a few Palma de Mallorca videos already available on my channel. Here are 2 links: th-cam.com/video/FdQKx2ExdLs/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/CnYQCzdpNI0/w-d-xo.html
hello captain!! hello from Siberia. landing was excellent. I give a big like. I am fond of aviation, I study Airbus A 320 and of course I watch your videos about aviation.🙂
Hello captain, thank you for your amazing videos! Can I ask a question about flying using the Airbus joystick control. I imagine you trained on aircraft with a yoke control so does it take a while to get used to flying using the joystick and do you prefer either controller type? Have a wonderful day Captain
Thank you so much for your great feedback! Sure, I flew airplanes with conventional yokes before doing the Airbus typerating. The transition to the sidestick was very easy, took no more than 20 minutes and was done on the first training day In the Toulouse training center. I like the sidestick very much because it enables you to have the table infront of you.
Another great video.. Question if I may.. at the end where you show the bird photo, behind the first officer there appears to be steam or vapour emitting behind his elbow, never seen that before.. would that be air conditioning kicking in from ground supply or something else? Great content as always, enjoy your videos greatly.
Thanks for the good feedback! We also see this kind of steam at the cabin outlets. It is like sometimes if you open your freezer. The temperature of the air is lowered below the dew point of the air.
Thanks for watching! I did my pilot training in steps, parallel to my original job in the media business. To accommodate my busy schedule, I had to use different schools for different training steps.
My computer screens are not that large. A while ago, I visited a friend. He has a special TV/cinema room with a very big 4k TV. I felt like being in the airplane again. I recommend watching these videos on a large 4k TV.
Vielen Dank fürs gute Feedback! Ja, es gibt A321 NEO und CEO. Das hängt vom Zufall ab. Der Dienstplan ist immer eine Überraschung. Klar, sobald ich einen A321-Flug mache, versuche ich auch, ein Video davon zu produzieren.
Thanks for the great feedback! They always ask to "squawk ident" if they want to find us on the ATC radar screen very fast. When we push the ident button on the transponder, our airplane symbol on the ATC radar screen is flashing.
In your SOPs the PNF does not acknowledge the PF calls (for change of the PFD's FMA) with "check" ? For the visual app, I always prefer to set TK/FPA when flying manually. You don't?
Fab video again. No wonder you still needed the LS indicators on - that sunlight and reflections on the water seemed to make it a potentially very tricky approach. Question. In Managed mode, I understand the Autopilot will obey the constraints of the MCDU in speed and altitude, etc, so that for example, it can calculate what descent rate it needs to achieve a ceratin level at a given point, but in Selected mode, when in Open Descent - if it has no 'target' - what dictates the rate of descent?
Thanks! We usually keep the ILS indication on during a visual approach. This improves our situational awareness. In open descent, the power is at idle and the target is the selected or managed speed. The resulting vertical speed is variable.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks. I understand that now. I've tried the ILS approach in the Flight Sim, but am now going to try the visual approach like this one. Keep the videos coming please, they're so helpful.
Fantastic video!! I have a question by the way. Recently I got my CPL license and I want to apply for Eurowings. Do you know how the selection process work, especially If we need to prepare for the DLR?
Congratulations for receiving your CPL license! Thanks for watching and for your great feedback! As far as I know, the selection and testing process is done by Interpersonal. You find more information here: www.career.aero/site/de/product/basic-qualification-ip and here: www.interpersonal.aero/en
Thanks. I do not release any details about the equipment and about how the audio and video recording is done. This may change in the near future. But for now I ask for your understanding.
We can use German or English. All procedures, callouts, manuals and conversations with ATC are in English. So it is usually a mixture between both languages.
I remember plane spotting at Ibiza with my ATC Radio where I was behind runway 24 next to the DC-10 nightclub in I think an abandoned car park. It was fascinating. Stefan, which has been the most challenging flight(s) you’ve done? Problems with the plane, passenger problems or extreme turbulence?
Thanks for sharing your very personal experience! I am in the lucky position that the airplanes which I fly are very well maintained. Technical issues are very rare. Most of the flying is uneventful. Sure, we have to circumnavigate clouds, sometimes it is bumpy during the approach or a sick passenger requires an expedited approach. Once in a while we have to go around due to a blocked runway or a windshear. This is part of our normal job. We are trained for that and handle it professionally.
Thank you very much for the detailed information. It’s very Interesting how you do it. Would there be any chance you can include a little bit of cruising altitude and some go arounds in your videos?
@@motorcycleaddict50 If the cameras are running and we have to do a go around I would share it. Until now, I did not tape a go around because they are very rare.
Thanks for watching and for sharing your very personal feedback! There is no reason to get nervous about the takeoff! There are also several takeoff and departure videos here on the channel. I suggest that you watch one or the other video to get a good impression about what we do during the takeoff. I wish you lots of nice flights! Have a great day!
Good suggestion. But you would not see a lot of movement. We use the rudder pedals only for taxiing, during the takeoff and landing roll and during the flare at crosswind landings.
bei 26:26 sagt das der flugzeug 2500 aber angezeigte höhe ist was um 2200 , wie kann das sein bei richtiger qnh und direkt über dem meer? welche höhe stimmt dann?
Für uns ist an dieser Stelle die barometrische Höhe maßgeblich. Die genaue Höhe des Radiohöhenmessers wird erst relevant, wenn wir uns in niedriger Höhe befinden: zum Beispiel für den Flare und das Minimum bei einem Anflug im Nebel (CATII oder CAT III). In niedriger Höhe passten die Werte ja wieder ganz gut zusammen.
I would love to do that. That would be great. But we cannot do that because we have very different passengers onboard. Some even prefer to sleep onboard until the landing to arrive very relaxed and be ready for Ibiza.
There is a Nice approach here on the channel. It was filmed with one camera on a rainy day. th-cam.com/video/mfLyntp1Cns/w-d-xo.html here may be coming more videos with wind or rain. Especially in the southern areas the weather is usually good. Please stay tuned.
I think this happened to a small general aviation airplane which was on the same radio frequency. It can happen in the same way like if you forget to put the fuel tank cover back after refueling your car.
lovey approach and beautiful content, as usual! Seeing a leaerner is also a big plus... question: right before touchdown and after "retard" what does it says?
Thanks for watching and for sharing your feedback! The Airbus says always "retard" as a reminder to move the thrust levers to idle thrust for the landing.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos yes i understand about the "retard" calling, was wondering at 29.48, right after retard, it calls something else, i would say 5 (following GPWS) but seems more like "drive".... Also thank you for taking the time to answer the comments, you guys are really great!!!
The windscreen has several layers and is very impact resistant. Usually, the windscreen stays intact after a bird strike. Sure, it would need cleaning and an inspection by a certified mechanic.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos US Airways 1549. Hudson River ditching. You have cameras in the cockpit, it would be interesting to see a belly landing in the water from a pilot's perspective. 😂
No difference. But it is not about the minutes. It is about the time zone. If I tell somebody we arrive at 8:50, I have to tell her or him about the time zone. We usually have passengers on board who came from another flight from a different time zone and during some flights, we arrive in another time zone.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Sorry, I was joking.. I shouldn't have depended on the winking emoji to convey that. I know your minutes are the same as all the rest of us! I do appreciate the detail of your answers.. always kind and helpful, even when the question is quite dumb. That's class! 👍
There are several takeoff videos from different airports available here on the channel. The most popular one is our London LHR departure: th-cam.com/video/eJGAgZc1w5A/w-d-xo.html There may be also an Ibiza takeoff video published. Please stay tuned!
Again a great video! That Bird was close at 29:42 !
Thanks for the good feedback! Please watch also 36:35
This shows our debriefing with a very close view of the bird.

Great experience, unfortunately there was extreme blinding from the sun and wind from the side.
I'm amazed at how beautifully the visual flew in these conditions! 👍
What I really liked were the constant overlays of the FMC.

Recently I got my CPL license and I want to apply for Eurowings. Do you know how the selection process work, especially If we need to prepare for the DLR?
Congratulations for receiving your CPL license! Thanks for watching and for your great feedback!
As far as I know, the selection and testing process is done by Interpersonal. You find more information here: www.career.aero/site/de/product/basic-qualification-ip and here: www.interpersonal.aero/en
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thank you so much
Just a question what charts are you using?
The charts are made by Lufthansa Systems: Lido mPilot and Lido eRoute Manual.
Superb ... I wanted to know where did you put the camera pointing towards the ND and PFD?
Thanks. I do not release any details about the equipment and about how the audio and video recording is done. This may change in the near future. But for now I ask for your understanding.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos okey okey dont worry Thank you very much for the answer .... anyway congratulations for the wonderful videos
@@jonfly3836 Thank you very much!
Amazing vídeo Captain. Always waiting for more. Good work,team and job. Thanks a lot Great Eurowings Captain.👍🫂😁
Thank you for your kind words!
If you weren't producing these for us and your First Officer was another German speaker, would you still use English in the cockpit normally Stefan?
We can use German or English. All procedures, callouts, manuals and conversations with ATC are in English. So it is usually a mixture between both languages.
I remember plane spotting at Ibiza with my ATC Radio where I was behind runway 24 next to the DC-10 nightclub in I think an abandoned car park. It was fascinating.
Stefan, which has been the most challenging flight(s) you’ve done? Problems with the plane, passenger problems or extreme turbulence?
Thanks for sharing your very personal experience! I am in the lucky position that the airplanes which I fly are very well maintained. Technical issues are very rare. Most of the flying is uneventful. Sure, we have to circumnavigate clouds, sometimes it is bumpy during the approach or a sick passenger requires an expedited approach. Once in a while we have to go around due to a blocked runway or a windshear. This is part of our normal job. We are trained for that and handle it professionally.
Thank you very much for the detailed information. It’s very Interesting how you do it. Would there be any chance you can include a little bit of cruising altitude and some go arounds in your videos?
@@motorcycleaddict50 If the cameras are running and we have to do a go around I would share it. Until now, I did not tape a go around because they are very rare.
That’s fine. Thank you
I get nervous about take off 😬 from Laura
Thanks for watching and for sharing your very personal feedback! There is no reason to get nervous about the takeoff! There are also several takeoff and departure videos here on the channel. I suggest that you watch one or the other video to get a good impression about what we do during the takeoff. I wish you lots of nice flights! Have a great day!
only suggestion i think rudder pedals may have camera
Good suggestion. But you would not see a lot of movement. We use the rudder pedals only for taxiing, during the takeoff and landing roll and during the flare at crosswind landings.
Lucky bird at 29:41😂
We were lucky too!
bei 26:26 sagt das der flugzeug 2500 aber angezeigte höhe ist was um 2200 , wie kann das sein bei richtiger qnh und direkt über dem meer? welche höhe stimmt dann?
Für uns ist an dieser Stelle die barometrische Höhe maßgeblich. Die genaue Höhe des Radiohöhenmessers wird erst relevant, wenn wir uns in niedriger Höhe befinden: zum Beispiel für den Flare und das Minimum bei einem Anflug im Nebel (CATII oder CAT III). In niedriger Höhe passten die Werte ja wieder ganz gut zusammen.
Listen captain you need to prime the passengers for a huge party. It's Ibiza and needs a D.J onboard cranking beats
I would love to do that. That would be great. But we cannot do that because we have very different passengers onboard. Some even prefer to sleep onboard until the landing to arrive very relaxed and be ready for Ibiza.
any video with landing in heavy rain/wind?
There is a Nice approach here on the channel. It was filmed with one camera on a rainy day. th-cam.com/video/mfLyntp1Cns/w-d-xo.html
here may be coming more videos with wind or rain. Especially in the southern areas the weather is usually good. Please stay tuned.
Open fuel tank!! how the hell does that happen? lol
I think this happened to a small general aviation airplane which was on the same radio frequency. It can happen in the same way like if you forget to put the fuel tank cover back after refueling your car.
lovey approach and beautiful content, as usual! Seeing a leaerner is also a big plus... question: right before touchdown and after "retard" what does it says?
Thanks for watching and for sharing your feedback! The Airbus says always "retard" as a reminder to move the thrust levers to idle thrust for the landing.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos yes i understand about the "retard" calling, was wondering at 29.48, right after retard, it calls something else, i would say 5 (following GPWS) but seems more like "drive"....
Also thank you for taking the time to answer the comments, you guys are really great!!!
@@TheEldarioThis was a Five callout from the radar altimeter.
„Deutschlandzeit“ - Relevant für die Balearen
Bei Zeitangaben im Flugzeug sage ich immer die Zeitzone dazu, auf die ich mich beziehe. Die Balearen liegen in der gleichen Zone, wie Deutschland.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos .. ach ne.
If the bird had smashed the windscreen imagine what this could do for the channel! 💰💰💰
The windscreen has several layers and is very impact resistant. Usually, the windscreen stays intact after a bird strike. Sure, it would need cleaning and an inspection by a certified mechanic.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos US Airways 1549. Hudson River ditching. You have cameras in the cockpit, it would be interesting to see a belly landing in the water from a pilot's perspective. 😂
36'36, bird...
At 29:42 you see it just passing by. And at 36:35 you see it zoomed in when we speak about it in the debriefing.
"50 minutes, German time".. just how long is a German minute? 😉
No difference. But it is not about the minutes. It is about the time zone. If I tell somebody we arrive at 8:50, I have to tell her or him about the time zone. We usually have passengers on board who came from another flight from a different time zone and during some flights, we arrive in another time zone.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Sorry, I was joking.. I shouldn't have depended on the winking emoji to convey that. I know your minutes are the same as all the rest of us!
I do appreciate the detail of your answers.. always kind and helpful, even when the question is quite dumb. That's class! 👍
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Have you ever arrived yesterday by crossing the International Date line? That would be a fun one to tell people!
Please make take off video
There are several takeoff videos from different airports available here on the channel. The most popular one is our London LHR departure: th-cam.com/video/eJGAgZc1w5A/w-d-xo.html There may be also an Ibiza takeoff video published. Please stay tuned!
