747 Landing Sydney

[@ZacFlies]

Awesome footage. Superb hand-flying, the precision that professional pilots are able to have never ceases to amaze me. Thanks for the upload.

[@William2512]

Awesome

[@TWCobra]

Thank you very much!

[@srinednco]

I watched the MEL to LAX 2018 yesterday as well, great footage mike.

[@3MinutesofAviation]

Fantastic perspective! May I feature this landing in one of my next episodes? Of course with a link back to your original video. All the best to you :)

[@TWCobra]

Go ahead! Regards Mike

The nose auto guidance and auto stop signals were developed here in Australia, by DCA and airport staff.

‘Windsock’s not doing much, it’s flaccid 😂’

[@Vpmatt]

I'm the complete opposite watching this vid.

[@CraZy291]

Aussie humor is great

[@BluestreakAviation]

Absolutely LOVE this pov angle, amazing video!

[@leokimvideo]

747's always have that lumpy running landing gear sound

[@twentyrothmans7308]

Thank you! I was allowed to sit in the jumpseat a few times. There was so much to take in that I didn't appreciate it enough.

[@flyingdolphin111]

Captains POV! Great flying the queen!

[@KateTruelove_]

Wow, that was awesome 👏. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to the next video

[@garycarter9859]

For a left-hand turn from the left-hand seat, I thought the tiller was moved forward and backwards for a right-hand turn. And the opposite for the right-hand seat. I thought this was to create a natural sense of direction of turn. However, the captain appears to pull the tiller backwards to exit the runway left.

[@GregoryGlynn]

You make it look easy.

[@Levi.Collier]

Great video! Was this filmed in the Qantas 747-400 or another airline and 747 variant?

[@oubrioko]

Sounds like _Sydney Tower_ called them *Qantas 74* (possibly SFO-SYD) at 2:24 of the video

[@bradnallyadventures]

Lovely to watch, would love to be on board

[@JulianShagworthy]

I looked it up out of curiosity of the pink epaulettes, and it is indeed Qantas, and the colour is to do with raising money for breast cancer awareness.

[@taniaferreira8682]

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@rmw9480]

My guess is Qantas Freight operated by Atlas Air 747-400

[@kevin19358]

What date did you film and how is your flight as a pilot?

[@almuric1baggins337]

I've often wondered why airliners are not fitted with a car horn or klaxon, in order to scare away errant ground vehicles that get too close! LOL

[@lordmashie]

The bus gets me every time

[@BrianS5588]

And one freaky extra arm at the end, does that come with the 747?

[@MrHelidude]

Best of years and the certainly the best aeroplane type ✈️ 💙

[@LilJollyJoker]

708th Sub!

[@alpiinoo135]

Nice camera view captain!

[@AndyPat239]

smooth landing

[@holobolo1661]

they were trying to pre-emptively fight breast cancer by leaving the radar on into the gate 😂

[@Owlventure_Aviation]

So Mike, do you still fly the 747?

[@TWCobra]

No, retired now from airline flying. I get to fly the Caribou though, which is great.

[@bodz9408]

Beautiful work mate

[@emmo_93]

Is this a 747 freighter? :)

[@TWCobra]

747-400ER. VH-OEJ

[@trainandbus123Perth]

What's the rego?

[@David1701G]

Atlas Air?

[@TWCobra]

No, Qantas 747-400ER. I'm retired now so the video a few years old.

[@karenmbbaxter]

Don't forget to put the handbrake on😬

[@Trash_Can81]

Not bad for a 330 pilot.

[@TheInvoice123]

Flat spot on tyre?

[@petesmith9472]

No… it was the nose wheel hitting the lights built into the centreline

[@TheInvoice123]

Beep the horn

[@TedGiddingsplanes]

Mike Glynn Shoots Awesome LIVE Videos Seems Have Plenty Inside Knowledge ? Must FOLLOW INDEFINITELY FOLKS

[@Stllno]

That is a narrow runway by world standards…

[@tobys_transport_videos]

Look again. It's Sydney Airport, Australia. Chances are he came in on 34R, which is hardy some backwater airstrip! This runway was enlarged to be able to land a Space Shuttle (back when they were flying) if it ever got into trouble over this part of Earth.
