    *Dealing with winds up to 50 knots? Let me know what is the strongest wind you've encountered in your life as a pilot or in the simulator. Did you land?*

      I landed a Cessna 172 with 49 knot crosswind on infinite flight... meanwhile these airliners are doing go-arounds? Meh, I guess it's why it's called a simulator, not real life :P

    2 years later i just realised I was PM on CX632. fun approach.We went around just above 1000' so way before minima. Turbulence were the main issue coming down. Before the video started all aircraft were in holding south of the airfield. Then a Royal Brunei (i think) got in an everyone gave it a go. the weather radar on turbulence mode over the missed approach area were purple (servere) thats why we asked for a heading of 090. We then diverted to Hanoi.

      well i am asking the top one and for a guy living in Hong Kong i am kind of happy that if something goes wrong it is not slam the plane at Manhattan but in the same time much harder plane spotting although i see is windshear problem is not really fixed becuase the new airport is from a big open area and while kaitak is surrounded by rocks and the harbour

    • @MrTomcat104
      @MrTomcat104 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      The decision to land is up to the pilot in this kind of weather. Short of an emergency at the airport that blocks the usage of the runway, the airport can remain open in a typhoon.

    • @mrpilot5958
      @mrpilot5958 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      a Gust is a brief increase in the wind speed only lasting about 2-3 seconds 26kts is the mean speed without a gust that I just explained then a lull is a brief decrease in the speed of wind once again only about 2-3 seconds hope that helped

    • @AmericanAviator

    „Windshear -25 knots“ does this mean the wind is slower on the aircrafts current altitude or on the ground?

    • @XPoChangLinX
      @XPoChangLinX 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It means you can anticipate a drop of 25 KIAS on approach to landing phase. (Decreased performance, loss altitude, stalls...) Simply put, the wind is significantly "slower" at lower altitudes. Note: Wind speed might be the same but is caused by a shift in wind direction.

    • @Falkano
      @Falkano 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh okay :) I figured that less wind on the ground would be better in circumstances like these, thats why the question popped up that it might be the other way round. i didnt think about stalls etc. thanks for clearing that up :)
      so i guess the procedure would be to shoot the approach 25 knots faster than you normaly would? (im not a pilot. i know a lot by now but only know the stuff i learned on channels like mraviation101 and others. i do want to get my PPL(A) soon though!)

    • @XPoChangLinX
      @XPoChangLinX 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well, generally you would increase your approach speed depending on the gust factor. Wind-shear is too instantaneous to predict or pre-config for. You'll have to work your throttles like a violin in these conditions. I wouldn't worry about this kind of "higher level" information. Different airlines have different SOPs anyways. Focus on the fundamentals. TH-cam is nice but isn't a substitute for good old fashion book(PDF) crunching. There are tons of free publications out there.

      In a simulator?
      If the wind is straight from the front or smoth you may land as long as the airplane is able to fly a little bit faster. It's a little crazy to "fly" in one place above the ground and to put a plane straight down but it works.
      The wind gradient is a little bit challanging. Gusting is unlandable (I wouldn't dare to try).

    • @BigTymers1211
      @BigTymers1211 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The problem is HKIA is that the airport was built with a mountain on one of its side, if the wind blow off the mountain is strong enough, it can cause last-second wind sheer that cause problem on landing, there had been planes that crash landed (I think its a Air China flight during similar circumstance) because of change in wind sheer. And the direction of the wind (if blowing from the north) will blow the wind right into the mountain and rebound onto the runway.
