Hats off the the engineers who built the landing gear on the 380 wow !

[@h0rk3d]

This pilot could land a plane with butter as landing gear

[@jeremymurphy7320]

I flew into MSP several years ago on a Beech 19 and we did just that. The lady a few rows up was *not* impressed even though the actual landing was butter smooth

[@felisconcolor1112]

Absolutely amazing: "I can land a flying office block - sideways!" Lots of amazing landings and recoveries recently: thank you very much!

[@ChapatiMan]

Thanks for that

[@scottcates]

Gawdammmmmmm, that A380 landing was a *monumental* sight. I am a huge diehard B747 fan but my hat is *officially* off to Airbus -- and that PIC.

[@johnsim3722]

That A380 landing reminded me of what happened when a couple of Irish pilots were coming in to Prestwick Airport in Scotland. One said to the other "They haven't left us much distance to land on", and the other replied, "yes, but look at the width of the runway!". I guess having an aircraft the size of the A380 is a big advantage in those conditions.

[@lillyanneserrelio2187]

Fantastic!! I always thank my pilot and their crew each and every time we land safely at our destination. Those were definitely experienced pilots. So many lives to be responsible for. I give these landings a standing ovation.

There's something very satisfying about watching those gear extension/retraction tests, like the Boeing 767 at 2:25. I'd love to see that for real.

[@Aviator27J]

I can go watch them do gear swings at the hangar (on 737s) but I've always wanted to go peek in on a C or D check. Those heavy checks get the aircraft taken down to hardly anything and then rebuilt!

[@valobrien9596]

@@Aviator27J I don't mind admitting that I am envious of you for that😄! But yes, given the opportunity, I would gladly spend a whole week bringing packed meals to a maintenance hangar to watch a C or D check that is underway!

[@sharoncassell9358]

That's some powerful gear.

[@valobrien9596]

@@sharoncassell9358 It sure is powerful gear alright. I'd imagine it takes more power to retract it than it does to lower it, as it's working against gravity. I'd love to see the figures, like how much power is involved.

Watching pilots maneuvering and adjusting in crosswind landings is very impressive!

[@thebobloblawshow8832]

That A 380 was an extraordinary performance by the crew. 👍👍 Really incredible.

[@lbowsk]

Incredibly bad? The idea is to minimize the side loading on the gear when touching down. Makes the rest of the landing rollout MUCH less frenetic and best of all, controlled. The engineers fitted the airplane with a huge powerful rudder and ailerons to help in the process. I guess it's just easier for some guys to perform a sideways-crabbing smackdown landing. My point is that it takes minimal skill to land sideways. Show me that same landing with the guy skillfully aligning the jet with the centerline as he's touching down and I'll add my accolades.

This is the best 3MOA to date -- the A380 crosswind landing supremacy; C5A overheated brakes and the B737 hard landing bounce commemerate and validate *both* the dedication and skill of our pilots *and* the excellent aircraft they fly. Color me impressed!

[@James-oo1yq]

If the camera viewpoint was down the centre line, it would look even more spectacular

[@Itsfalcon9]

Naw that cross wind landing would’ve scared the living shit out of me if I was a passenger

[@LeftCoastStephen]

Many years ago, I flew into Gatwick on a WardAir 747. Sitting in seat 1A, it looked like I was about 50’ into the grass when the main gear touched down. Very weird feeling indeed!

[@ronaldw2453]

That A380 was unreal Those engines are incredible.

[@pcpablo2]

Imagine sitting on the right side of the A380 and seeing a cockpit type view of the runway ahead out of your passenger window! Would like to see a video of that view!

[@awboat]

I would be saying, go around, go around, go around, go around, please lord, go around!!!!!

[@Degenerate76]

Whenever I see one of these crabbed crosswind landings, I wonder what it must be like being seated far back in the tail. I imagine they must feel pretty seasick when the plane whips back to align with the runway.

[@steveanimatrix3887]

I experienced a landing like that landing in high winds in Warsaw, Poland from NYC after a 5 hour takeoff delay due to storms. I'm watching out the window and the runway getting closer and we're sideways (basically putting my window row in the "front") and thinking there's no way and what the F are they thinking?!?!? A very calm voice was saying "hold on, folks, it's going to be a bumpy landing." Then the massive jerk as the plane whipped about 35-40 degrees in an instant to straighten itself when the rear wheels touched down and it was over in about 30 seconds. By far the scariest flight I've ever been on but very thankful to the skilled pilots. We had pretty bad turbulence before that as well.

[@mort6727]

The skills of the pilots on the A380 are more than incredible!!🤯 they are just mindblowing

[@nguyenquocan4815]

I remember Narita was a bit of a challenging airport to land, the tower wind was 80% incorrect, the direction was variable like hell, flying airbus sidestick into this airport was like soup making but nonetheless a very fun airport to land in. Thanks for the video!!!

[@djmiller232]

Thank you for EXACTLY 3 minutes of Aviation! 😀

[@CesarpaulRivera]

That was me on my solo Had no idea about cross winds Went round and round for about an hour, until almost out of gas, I was scared because the plane would go sideways and I thought it would roll. At the end I had no choice, thanks God nothing happened Remember my knees shaking so bad, and still had to go through the solo ceremony, all the kicking and used oil shower, but only a couple kicks got me,run away from the oil and the rest of my friends, jumped on my car that I had parked right out side the door for the special occasion

[@Fast351]

That was some pedal dancing in that 380 to straighten it out once it was down. Very impressive!

[@lbowsk]

The pedal dancing was a bit late.

[@Soon2BRev]

The A380 was nuts. I love the landing gear on that plane.

[@Paige_Edgley]

During my check ride to earn my pilots license i had a make a cross wind landing in very heavy gusts and the DPE told me not to wprry if i feel the stick moving, hes helping me. U landed the plane on my own with no assistance and his first words were congratulations your a pilot.

[@feth7747]

The A380 pilot has do a PERFECT JOB, cross the plane all necessary, down the rear wheels to the runway, brakes straighten the course, and then low the nose when the plane is parallel, then, the front wheels guides the plane straight.

[@danomite8423]

[@jumboJetPilot]

That C-5 must have had a locked brake. In 20 years I hardly ever used the brakes to stop during landing. The thrust reversers are plenty effective for that.

[@gort8203]

Whether it occurred during landing or even taxi out prior to takeoff it was obviously a dragging brake because only one wheel was overheated.

Decades ago I used to hang with a group of commercial pilots each of whom had developed their flying experience in Northern Canada working as bush pilots. They had all experienced life=threatening situations which tested their flying prowess to the extreme. Experience that one couldn't buy at any cost, experience that taught them how to keep cool in critical situations working for major airlines.

[@rightsideupvt]

[@fly1327]

Orange County approach, my 737 pilot cleared for a VERY short downwind with a gap between landing traffic, slips the jet like a sailplane to hit the numbers on a fairly short runway. Walking off, complemented the pilot on the skillful approach, him smiling asking if I was a pilot, "Of course".

Good old FRED making the list. We had a C5 land at our location, against ATC's advice, and overshoot the landing due to partial runway closures. 12 brake fires and 14 blown tires later that groundhog got out of there. The pilot on the other hand got to leave as a passenger.
