This is so much fun to replicate in FS2020 because the PFD/ND are shown nonstop. No one else on youtube seems to edit in this (smart) way. Thank you very much! Do you also happen to fly Salzburg RNAV approaches from the south? PS: also love the additional airport, SID, STAR and approach charts.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thank you so much for watching and your helpful feedback! I fly to Salzburg on a regular basis. But unfortunately all my landings during the last 2 years were out of the ILS. The wind for that was calm or just a light tailwind. The future will hopefully provide winds which require a landing from the south..

[@tango6nf477]

I have often wondered how the crew navigate on the ground so as to find the correct runways and taxiways especially on a big airport where there are many. Very professional people I admire them immensely.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

In addition to our charts in the Ipad, there are signs on the edge of the taxiways. Also, especially on the apron and at intersections, there are usually painted markings on the asphalt or concrete. Even with all this, navigation on the ground can be challenging and requires the full attention of the crew.

[@davidsilvera7436]

There are lots of videos that explain the runway markings that help ground crew and pilots navigate. Had to watch a few of them to get a better understanding. With that knowledge in mind, I try to read Captains charts to see where he needs to taxi and I'm getting better at it. lol 😁

Hello! Another video from my favourite island. Great! Excellent footage! You don't often see take-offs from runway 06L here on the island at all. This is really amazing. I hope you enjoyed the flight. The weather on the island is not quite summer-like at the moment. But soon the weather on the island will be better too. I hope to see more videos from and to Palma de Mallorca in the future.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the detailed feedback! I also like Mallorca very much. It is a great Island! As a pilot, I flew from and to PMI very often. This was my first takeoff from runway 06L. Reason was that 06R was closed due to work in progress.

Hello Cpt. Another beautiful departure video of my longtime home. (I worked there). 🤩 I always like the view of the landscape from the cockpit. Well done! How often do you actually fly to Mallorca per week or per month? Can only say again and again, for me your videos are the best. 🏆🏅 Because you can see that you really like your work! I'm already looking forward to the next one! With this in mind, I wish you and your crew a nice week. Greetings from Styria 🤗 Werner

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Werner, thanks for your friendly words! I fly to Mallorca on a regular basis. But the schedule is always different. Sometimes several flights a week, sometimes less. I fly a lot to "special CAT C" airports, like Salzburg, Samos and Funchal. So my personal schedule usually contains lots of flights to these destinations.

[@SailingYachtSaltyLass]

Quite a change in the altimeter when you changed from local to standard. It took me a while to figure out what happened. My first thought was "Wake vortex way up there???" but I got it on a re-play

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and you feedback! I agree, depending on the local altimeter setting, the change in altitude may be significantly.

Captain when the tug is connected and bypass pin is inserted can you perform the rudder control check as if you were depressing the pedal disconnect switch? Another masterpiece. so hard to decide which trip vlog is better than the other. they are all equally amazing - thanks as always - Kam

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Kam, thanks for watching and the great feedback! In general, you are right about the bypass pin and the rudder disconnect button on the tiller. Nevertheless, we always press the disconnect button if we do a rudder check.

Thanks for watching and your great feedback! I would love to include the displays. But due to reflections and very limited possible camera locations it is way more complicated than said. Nevertheless, I will keep your suggestion in mind and hope to find a solution in the future. Have a nice day!

[@kwakka636]

Great video captain as always lovely take off . Can I ask did the load sheet change with the weight last minute so your v1 speed would need adjusting and runway length ?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the good feedback! Before the video recording starts, we got a new, updated loadsheet with a load of about 1000 Kilogramms more. At that time, our briefing and the performance calculation for the takeoff with the lower weight was already done. In the video, you see that we check and confirm the performance for the higher weight. The Vspeeds were 1 knot higher and we had to check the takeoff distance which only changed very little but was no factor on the long runway.

Excellent video and beautiful takeoff on the RWY 06L. I have a question: why are you taking off from 06L and not from 06R?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks a lot for the great feedback! This is a very good question. Usually, takeoffs are done from runway 06R. But at the day of the flight, runway 06R was closed due to maintenance reasons. Takeoffs from runway 06L are very rare.

[@MoiFlow92]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I understand, very interesting. Thank you so much for the answer.

[@gdf6468]

Thank you captain for your great videos I will never get tired of watching them! I have a question for you or I can't find an answer if I want to join EWG after my ATPL do you have to speak German to apply or is English enough? because I'm Belgian and where I live there isn't much for newcomers to the industry and EWG is an incredible offer for newcomers

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the good feedback! I cannot give you an "official" answer to your question about the language. But my personal understanding is that besides English, you have to have some level of knowledge of the German language if you want to work for Eurowings Germany. Details are usually published in the job offers. I wish you all the best for your ATPL training and hope to see you soon in the cockpit.

[@leandroinski1320]

Sehr schönes Video mal wieder, wie immer :) Das ist das erste Mal, dass ich eine Depature auf der 06L sehe. Ich fliege öfters nach LEPA, sowohl in echt als Passagier, als auch im Flugsimulator, aber das habe ich so noch nie gesehen. Letztens habe ich aber auf dem Flightradar auch mal eine Dep. auf der 24L gesehen. Sind ja meistens für die Landung. 24R Landung ist mir aber nicht sehr unbekannt, das ist ja öfter. Egal, meine Frage : Weißt Du (wenn ich Dich mal so böse duzen darf), ob auch eine Landung auf der 06R durchaus möglich ist? Weil eine Touchdown-Zone ist ja vorhanden, allerdings habe ich das wirklich noch nie gesehen. - Außerdem sind die Exits nicht so schön zum vecaten, sollte man auf der 06R landen.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Vielen lieben Dank fürs Anschauen und Dein gutes Feedback! Ein Start von der Startbahn 06L ist extrem selten. Wir sind dort gestartet, weil Runway 06R wegen Bauarbeiten geschlossen war. Gelandet bin ich auf der 06R noch nicht. Sie wird eigentlich nur für Starts benutzt. Möglich wäre es jedoch. Es gibt einen VOR Approach, der 3,4 Grad steil ist und eine Entscheidungshöhe von 1210 Fuß hat. Das PAPI an der Bahn ist auch auf 3,4 Grad eingestellt. Einen schönen Tag noch!

[@leandroinski1320]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Vielen Dank für die Antwort! Gut, ist also nur ein VOR Approach. Dass aber selbst PAPIs vorhanden sind, ist schon interessant. Ich bin ja mal gespannt, ob es vielleicht mal vorkommen wird. Schönen 1. Advent!

Das wäre uns kürzlich fast passiert. Runway 06L und 24R waren geschlossen und der Wind war vorhergesagt passend für Runway 06R. Er drehte jedoch am frühen Morgen noch etwas, so dass Runway 24L für Starts und Landungen genutzt werden konnte..

Thanks again for a very nice and professional video! One questtion. When do you start engine one on the CEO. Does it need to wait for the indication avaible for engine two?

Thanks for your good feedback! The "green SOPs" allow to start engine 1 as soon as the start valve of engine 2 is closed. This is before the available indication for engine 2 is displayed.

[@jimihendrix1998]

Can I ask why you both hold the flight control stick, is that just in case other pilot who is 'in control' needs assistance you're ready. Also when autopilot is on you seem to hold them too. Is that required till a certain altitude?

[@jonnym4134]

Hi. Awesome channel. I have been watching to help with flying the A320 in MSFS. Could you explain the process of switching which lights on/off at what point in the flight? Many thanks

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks. Landing lights are on from takeoff to 10000 feet and back from 10000 to landing. Taxi and runway turnoff lights are used for taxiing and with gear down (takeoff light) Navlights are always on. Beacon is on when engines are running and strobes are on from entering the runway for departure until leaving the runway after landing.

[@carstenplay9694]

Ich bin seit Jahren Flugsimulant, aber ich frage mich immer, woher weiß ich 1.Wann kann ich das depature briefing machen, 2. wann kann ich welche Checkliste lesen und wann gebe ich die Performance Daten ein. Bisher nehme ich die immer aus den geplanten Flug Briefings ( also quasi die theoretischen Daten). Gibt es da eine logische und zeitliche Einordnung ohe das ich in Stress verfalle? Die Videos sind übrigens allesamt Top. Ich freue mich immer über jedes neue Video, danke dafür.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Danke fürs gute Feedback! Was das Departure Briefing betrifft, macht man es im Idealfall dann, wenn man weiß, welche Runway bzw. Intersection zu erwarten ist und welche Departure Route. Da man dabei auch über die Performance, wie die Einhaltung von Höhenvorgaben und bezüglich eines Startabbruchs oder der Single Engine Situation spricht, sollte man auch schon die Loafsheetdaten kennen. Je nach Situation kommt es auch vor, dass man bereits vor dem eigentlichen Briefing Dinge, wie zum Beispiel das Rollen oder eine mögliche Rückkehr sehr ausführlich bespricht und diskutiert. Im Briefing wird das Thema dann nur noch sehr kurz angerissen und auf die vorherige Besprechung verwiesen. Wir geben zunächst das voraussichtliche Zero Fuel Weight und den bestellten Sprit ein. Sobald wir die Ladedaten haben, rechnen wir das Loadsheet uns danach die Performance aus. Die Daten vom Loadsheet geben wir gemeinsam ein Die Performance rechnen wir unabhängig voneinander, analysieren die Ergebnisse, einigen uns dann auf eine Takeoffkonfiguration (Klappen, Klimaanlage an oder aus, Flex Temperatur) und bei einer V1-Range auf einen Wert. Die normalen Checklisten lesen wir, sobald alle Items gemacht sind, die darin abgefragt werden. Manche Checklisten haben zusätzlich Trigger Events, vor oder nach denen wir sie lesen sollen. Zum Beispiel lesen wir die After Start Checkliste erst, wenn wir ein Klarzeichen der Bodencrew haben. Falls wir was vergessen haben, erinnert uns die Checkliste daran.

[@carstenplay9694]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Vielen lieben Dank für die ausführlichen Erklärungen. Ich werde jetzt an meiner "Performance" arbeiten. 😀 Finde es wirklich prima, dass Sie so ausführlich geantwortet haben. Weiterhin alles Gute und noch viele viele Videos Ihres wirklich interessanten Jobs.

[@neilking]

I have a question - as I understand it, the speed is limited to 250kts below FL100 and I noticed in this video that the rate of climb dropped a bit at FL100 and the speed increased to 280kts. Is this transition automatically programmed into the autopilot/autothrottle mode? Or did PF action it manually by reducing the r/c? I noticed he touched something on A/P-A/T panel at FL100 - was that it?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

The preprogrammed target speed below FL100 is 250 kt. This is even true if there is no speed limitation. During the climb, above FL100, the target speed changes to the climb speed which results from the cost index. The rate of climb is not pre programmed or so. It is just the result of flying the target speed with climb thrust and is variable.

[@autothrust.]

Thr Reduction and acc alt in PMI is 1500 ft 🤙🏼 reading AOI‘s helps

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

You are correct. 1000 feet was set in the MCDU, but if you watch the video closely and keep an eye on the instruments you will see that the pilot flying was flying manually and in accordance to the AOIs he delayed the setting of the climb thrust and the acceleration to about 1500 feet.

[@autothrust.]

Also a way to make things more complicated 😂

[@davza108]

What's the purpose of turning the packs off during the takeoff? Is the aircraft performance limited?

[@martincerveny4747]

When performing a FLEX (reduced thrust) takeoff, turning off the packs lowers the EGT of the engine, therefore increasing the engine life, if performing a TOGA thrust it improves the performance... 🙂

[@kwakka636]

Also air con is switched off to conserve power during takeoff

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Here we did it to save fuel, reduce emissions and extend engine life. Sometimes it is required due to performance reasons. This may happen if the runway is short or if there are obstacles in the departure.

Taxi clearance was given via Delta, but how did you know how to get to taxiway Delta? Is it special Palma procedure? Thank you! 9:27

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching. At PMI airport, we stay at the inner taxiway until we reach the specified taxiway (sometimes called gate) which leads us to the outer taxiway. In general, this was a very nice and easy taxi instruction. Much better than the long taxi clearance "Taxi via LG, LF, LE, D gate and the north link to holding point H4 and hold short runway 06L". At some airports, ATC always communicates the clearances like the long one. This makes it more complicated than needed because we have to find and confirm all the taxiway names on the chart. In the USA, it is even easier. If there is no traffic and ATC has no preference about your taxi routing, even on large airports I got clearances like "Taxi to your parking position" or for departure: "Hold short runway xx".
