Airbus A380 - Approach and Landing in Frankfurt - Capt. Raps' Final Landing (ENG sub)

The last landing of Captain Jürgen Raps' career as he lands the massive Airbus A380 onto RWY 25R at Frankfurt (EDDF) with Senior F.O. Harald Tschira monitoring.
This small clip is part of a whole movie produced and owned by PilotsEye.tv

these two pilots were featured in the famous Frankfurt- San Francisco video, always smiling and sure of what they do. Professionals. Alles gute Capt. Raps

This was the return flight :)

[@billolsen4360]

My first flight over an ocean was Lufthansa from NYC to Frankfurt & the calm announcements from the pilots over the intercom took the edge off of my nervousness.

@Ganz entspannte Basis qué lindo video que hacen, me gusta así, TODO TRANQUILITO, en la cual TODO ESTÁ BIEN, perfectamente controlado, con una Gran EQUILIBRIO y ESTABILIDAD EMOCIONAL y sabiendo perfectamente lo que tienen que hacer. Además el Avión anda fenomenal. Creo que son Alemanes, de la República Federal de Alemania Occidental, que son muy INTELIGENTES como decía Hitler, está bien, pero este señor además de eso ha sido muy matador de gente y eso está mal. Pero bueno todo bien, digo que deben ser alemanes porque hablan todo con la letra F, Fan, fun, fun, fan, ja,ja,ja, es que yo soy latino de latinoamérica. Bueno ya de allá me van a traducir, porque debo reconocer que en Europa son muy inteligentes, hablan todos como 7 idiomas, y más el castellano, así le decimos aquí, que es muy fácil de hablarlo y tiene muchos hispanos hablantes en el Mundo.//Y con respecto al Coronavirus habría que hacer algo en contra de los Chinos, que culpa de ellos pasó esto en el mundo, pero, desgraciadamente, no hay una LEY Mundial que ataque a ese país.

From this video, wow, Germany looks like a beautiful place to live. those small towns are my favorite. plenty of green space.

[@bluellamaslearnbeyondthele2456]

Frankfurt and everything around it is quite green, greener as usual. On the other hand, you can only walk out of one town for like a mile before you bump into the next one. The region is highly populated so you need the green forests to balance that out.

[@lukem9707]

I was landing in Munich in October and the countryside was very beautiful. Perfectly laid out small towns, very clean and well organized.

What a difference between EU and USA ATC's! So kind

[@AviationHubOfficial]

I have definitely noticed a sort of mandatory politeness especially in the UK and Ireland. But then America is operating under different laws and regulations and by nature of popular videos we mostly see the busiest airports. There is a scene from a pilotseye film where the captains translation was "they certainly speak very *fluently* , and don't like you to ask for a repeat". I wonder if any transatlantic pilots could weigh in on this?

[@markusthl]

USA-ATC usually is way more relaxed than the German ATC and also very friendly.

What a wonderful flight experience, taking part in landing a an A380! Good to see these 2 pilots shaking hands after a successful flight.

What a high speed 320kt below 10000ft ,reducing until 5000ft..good jobs.

[@AviationHubOfficial]

I'm directly above the Heathrow eastern arrival route, and planes are about 14,000ft at 250kts or lower when they pass over, I can generally only hear the A380's and 747's, but 6000ft at 320kts?! Even at idle power, that's gotta be seriously loud. But then Lufthansa don't fuck around with punctuality!
