The perfect way to start the week, a new cockpit video! If you have time and if you want, could explain what is the difference between "descent" and "open descent", please? Thank you in advance and greetings from Verona (LIPX/VRN)

[@Buny123]

In „descent“ mode the autopilot descents with a managed descent (for example to reach the next altitude restriction at a certain point). In „open descent“ the autopilot puts the engines on idle and descents with the maximum descent rate possible while ensuring that the selected speed is maintained.

[@tiziostanco]

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thank you very much!

[@sawyerhja]

Another first class video. Some questions: 1a. what's the technical name for the data input screens (@ 0.11, 1.14, 6.46)? and, 1b. Is there a way of finding a description of all the data input fields, on Google? 3. What's the "tic,tic,tic" sound @17.46. Many thanks.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and for supporting the channel as a member! Airbus makes it easy, they usually display the name on top of the page. 1:11 is the Init Page, 1:14 is the fuel prediction (or Init next) page, 6:46 shows the takeoff performance page. Airbus delivers the plane with a flight manual and a FCOM, which stands for flight crew operating manual. These books show all the information. I cannot share them, but I do assume that a google search will find you the needed information. The triple click signals a mode reversion of the flight management and guidance system. Please watch at 17:33 and keep an eye on the upper part of the PFD, this is called FMA. At 17:33 we are flying in NAV mode and in managed Climb, shown by CLB. Then we are instructed to fly a heading (left by 15 degrees). We pulled the heading selector to fly the appropriate heading. Because the airplane is not able to fly in CLB mode when a heading is selected, the mode changes automatically to OP CLB. Because the change from CLB to OP CLB was not selected directly by the crew, the flight management system is telling the change via a flashing white box around the OP CLB indication and a triple click.

[@franco_albi9559]

Ottimo , ottimo. Grazie per il video e buon weekend all the crew. Bravi. PS: Is it the rule for you to engage the autopilot at 10,000 feet of altitude? (Wouldn't it be more practical to insert it first - earlier ?) Thank you for an answer .

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for being a regular viewer of my videos and for your great feedback! The only rule about that is that we have to use the autopilot when we fly in RVSM airspace. This is at 29000 feet or FL290 or higher. The decision when to switch on the autopilot during the departure or when to switch it off during the approach is done by the pilot flying. We must be able to fly the plane with and without autopilot.

[@Mike.Rowphone]

[@mr_matcheu]

Very nice as always ! A question : at 17:46, what is actually the meaning of the sound 'bip bip bip' that we hear ? It also comes always at landing just after the AP disconnect alarm... Is it related to the A/THR ? I see here it follows the OP CLB mode engaging ?

[@theflyinggasmask]

That sound indicates the autopilot is changing mode, as you can see you can see with the white boxes on the FMA. Basically, the autopilot saying its going down a level of automation.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

The triple click is alarming us that there was a mode change which we did not command. The plane was climbing in CLB mode. Then we were advised by radar to fly a HDG. This changed the lateral mode from NAV to HDG. In HDG, the vertical CLB mode is not available. So the autoflight system changed the vertical mode automatically to OP CLB. This change was not directly commanded by us and only a result of the NAV to HDG change. Subsequently the system is alerting us with the triple click and showing the changed mode with a flashing white box at 17:48 in the FMA window.

[@mr_matcheu]

Thank you very much for another great video. They truly are the best aviation videos I have ever seen, and they showcase your professional collaboration in the cockpit. I hope to fly with you someday. I have one more question: You fly the A319 and A320, but do you also fly the A321? And how do the aircraft differ in terms of the flying experience? I notice that the speeds during takeoff and landing are different. Can you feel the differences in size and weight of the aircraft types while sidestick-flying?

[@HolgerTeutsch]

Right now Eurowings has very few A321, first they got was in June.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and for your good feedback! Please tell everybody about the channel! I flew the A321 for a few thousand hours. The same is true for the A319 and A320. The flying characteristics are similar. I like them all very much as they are great airplanes. My personal impression is that the A321 is flying very stable because of the higher weight and the higher approach speeds. A crosswind does not really matter. The A319, especially with a low passenger load, is a little less stable. In regard to the landing, you also have to take into account the different weights. The A319 needs a very late flare. The A321 flare needs to be started earlier for a smooth touchdown and the A320 is somewhere in between. On the other hand, the A319 can easily fly to very short runways. The runways for the A321 must be a little longer.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

[@tango6nf477]

Good morning Captain and thank you for your latest video which is as usual excellent. I have another question for you please, the answer to which you may think obvious. You and the Co pilot always go through a briefing and debriefing on every flight. This is a really good practice and what I am asking is whether this is your best practice or is it a requirement? Thank you again Sir and all the best.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for your good feedback! Briefings are normal in commercial aviation. They are very useful. We have to do them to make sure that both pilots have the same mental picture about the upcoming events. But there is more. We also perform together the loadsheet calculation and the resulting takeoff calculation. Complicated approaches, departures or taxi routings are usually discussed in depth before the standard briefing is done. The debriefing helps us to improve. If we have seen something which may be done better the next time, we can address it there.

[@richardfrancis4518]

Great video, as usual. Do you think the day will come when an ATC computer will 'talk' directly to an onboard computer to convey height, heading, etc?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your feedback! ATC is already talking to the airplane. We use CPDLC. So clearances are already transmitted to the airplane in writing at some ATC facilities. Depending on the airplane, we can load the transmitted frequency as new frequency in our radio. (Until now) there is no connection between the data ATC sends to us and our flight management system. On the other hand, ATC is for example able to "see" which target altitude we dialed into our FMGS system. Our transponder transmits a certain number of data. For example, we get a clearance from ATC to descent to FL250. We dial 260 into our FCU. After a short while ATC will tell us that we are cleared to 250 and not 260. I assume that this kind of communication will be intensified in the future.

May I ask why RWY is not shown on FMA during take off roll🤔 thanks!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

RWY can only be shown on runways where a localizer transmitter is transmitting. If it is off or not installed, RWY will not be shown and subsequently the yaw bar will not be displayed on the PFD.

[@yorkshirebiker]

Thank you as always for these videos. I have a question and I hope it's not a silly one! Are you able/trained to use the sidestick with either hand? I notice you always sit on the left and use your left hand on the sidestick. Are you able - for any reason - to swap seats and use your other hand? Is it just a preference?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

The right seat is for the First Officer and the left seat is for the Captain. If the First Officer is promoted to a Captain he or she moves to the left seat. Training Captains can fly in both seats because they train Captains and First Officers. Using the stick with the other hand is no problem after a little training in the simulator. Other things which change with the seat are the position of the engine indications. The First Office looks to the left to see them and the Captain has to look to the right.

[@yorkshirebiker]

[@chriscambridge3557]

Why is the pilot monitoring also holding the stick if he is not pilot in command flying the plane?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Good question. This is the relaxed position for the arm and the hand. In addition, he could takeover immediately if needed and the push to talk switch for the radio is mounted to the sidestick.

[@ells-aviation]

Another great video love the details and hard work you put in . Question please after take off before you call thrust climb and reduce throttle what do you mean when you call “ nav “ is that yourself confirming routing way points are set ? Thank you

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the good feedback! We call out all the changes of the FMA. The FMA is shown on the upper part of the PFD. During the takeoff roll, NAV was indicated in blue, which means armed. After takeoff, it moved to the upper line and changed the color to green, which stands for active. That means that the flight management system is followimg our pre-programmed routing.

[@birdman4274]

Another great video. FO said you had 500kg for extra 13 minutes. That doesn't sound like much. How do you predict such small amount or maybe the block fuel has extra?👍👍

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for your good feedback! We had plenty of fuel for the flight. The 13 minutes or 500 kg extra are on top of: The taxi fuel, the trip fuel, a route reserve (on this flight 200 kg), the fuel to an alternate airport along a published (usually long) routing, 30 minutes of final reserve fuel. Details are visible at 01:15 on the fuel prediction page. At 19:07 the pilot monitoring checks again the extra fuel and it showed 800 kg or 23 minutes. The landing at the destination was done with fuel for about 1 hour and 20 minutes of flight time in the tanks.

I have been there several times. The setup was always like you mentioned. Landing 22L, Takeoff 22R. It is possible to land on 22R. There are published approaches available to 22R. During our takeoff, the ILS 22R was off.

[@devansh8846]

How much heavier than the MLW is considered to be "heavy"? I mean like 500 kg or 1000 kg can be neglected? To which value it can be ignored?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

There is no real definition of heavy. Landing above the maximum landing weight will only be done if it is needed for emergency or technical reasons. For this is a special checklist available and the landing performance with that overweight has to be checked. In all other cases, we would reduce the weight below the maximum landing weight before the landing. We cannot dump fuel, so we have to fly until the weight is below maximum landing weight. Safety is our highest priority. That means we would never neglect or ignore an overweight situation. Overweight starts as soon as we are 1 kg above the maximum landing weight. If we would see during an approach that we may be slightly above maximum landing weight, we would fly a holding pattern or extend the landing gear and/or the flaps early to burn off the fuel and get below maximum landing weight.

[@crypto1701]

23 extra minutes of fuel.. is that at your destination or your alternate? I've been stuck in holding patterns for a lot longer than 23 minutes.. we flew a holding pattern over Lake Michigan with at least a dozen other planes for over 45 minutes waiting for the weather in Chicago to let us in.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

23 Minutes are on top of remaining required trip fuel to the destination, fuel to the alternate on a published (long) routing and 30 minutes holding fuel. We landed at the destination with fuel for a flight time of more than 1 hour 20 minutes in the tanks. Destination was Düsseldorf, weather was good enroute and at the destination. We use in addition detailed historical fuel burn data for the extra fuel planning. If the weather forecast is bad or if we fly to very busy airports like London Heathrow, we take an adequate amount of fuel for the situation. The good thing is that the company calculates the required fuel and the crew analyses everything and takes whatever extra fuel they think is necessary for a safe operation. They do not have to justify or defend their decision. And: We always include an alternate airport in the planning, even if it would not be required by law.

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for the explanation! I was wondering because I have sat in a holding pattern for a long time and I see the planes holding when DFW shuts down for a storm.
